Raskin: ICE and CBP — these are not law enforcement entities, and at this point they’re completely lawless. They’re outside of the Constitution.

The Pleiades star cluster (M45) captured over 25 hours. The blue glow is starlight reflecting off interstellar dust. The surrounding brown structures are the Integrated Flux Nebula, incredibly faint clouds lit by the glow of our entire galaxy.

Last week on the trail, I found one of my favorite quiet miracles.
These are Pipevine flowers — easy to miss, blooming before the leaves arrive, long before most things wake up.
They’re part of a remarkable relationship that eventually gives rise to the Pipevine Swallowtail butterfly.
