NEW: @aclu.org obtained ICE's "Alien Enemies Act Validation Guide," confirming all it takes to be sent to rot in prison in El Salvador is being Venezuelan and 1) having a tattoo an ICE officer says is a "gang tattoo" and 2) displaying "logos," "symbols" or clothes an ICE officer says are gang signs.

The Pistons without 3 starters with maybe their most impressive win of the season tonight over the Cavs

Their magic number to clinch a playoff spot is down to 2

They officially become the first team in NBA history to triple their win total over two 82 game seasons

FINAL: Pistons 133, Cavs 122. Pistons (42-32) have officially tripled their win total from last season — and clinched a winning record — with a big upset without Cade and Tobias. Huge, huge win. Also snapped a 12-game losing streak to the Cavs.

THJ: 32 pts
Beasley: 19 pts

This is horrible to post, but I may as well post it. We are essentially shutting down research operations in my group, which is focused on treatments for pediatric brain cancer. I’m a well funded investigator, and there’s no choice. Science can’t function without the stability of NIH

Trump claimed the Biden administration spent $8 million "making mice transgender." The White House tried to back up this number with records of funding for research into cancer, asthma, and HIV, some of which used *transgenic* (genetically modified) mice.
Trump Decried Millions Spent 'Making Mice Transgender.' It Was Cancer and Asthma Research
President Trump falsely claimed that Biden spent $8 million on 'making mice transgender,' but the real research was for human health.

Love this. It should not be limited to this term. But it’s a great step forward.

Now @khanna.house.gov and other house members need to make the media tour , including Fox News, to talk about it

BREAKING: Representative Ro Khanna has introduced the Drain the Swamp Act.

It will ban White House officials from accepting gifts from lobbyists or becoming lobbyists during the Trump term.

That’s 7 in a row for the Pistons, snapping a 10-game losing streak to the Clippers. Their last win was Blake Griffin’s return to LA in 2019.

We got a Costco membership for the first time in our lives today. They asked why & I said because treat your workers well, you value diversity, & you didn’t cave in to authoritarian demands. He said: “We’ve been getting lots of folks saying that, thanks for joining.”

Hell yeah. Hold the line. This is what we need people to do.

Slow things down, don’t comply in advance so the courts have time to stop them. It’s starting to work.
Received a letter from POTUS today purporting to remove me as Commissioner and Chair of the FEC. There's a legal way to replace FEC commissioners-this isn't it. I've been so fortunate to serve the American people and stir up some good trouble along the way. That's not changing anytime soon.
