Totalitarianism in power invariably replaces all first-rate talents, regardless of their sympathies, with those crackpots and fools whose lack of intelligence and creativity is still the best guarantee of their loyalty.

This is a fancy neighborhood
NEW: Video shared with me from a bystander in DC shows multiple masked federal agents (at least one of whom appears to have an ICE badge) violently attacking and handcuffing a delivery worker in the street outside Bluestone Lane cafe near Logan Circle this morning.
Please take care when watching.

The bodies are more wasp than bees, but all bees descended from wasps (the first in the late Crestataceous period, 150 million years ago). 🌱 A replica of this charm and necklace was the best gift ever from my honey, @jstpwalsh.bsky.social
‘Bee-eautiful’ gold pendant from Bronze Age Malia, Crete.
Usually said to represent a pair of bees placing a drop of honey into a honeycomb. A delightful piece of Minoan jewellery inspired by nature 3,800 years ago!

“Trump spoke of asking Attorney General Pam Bondi to find legal ways to abduct Americans and leave them in foreign concentration camps. But by ‘legal’ what is meant are ways of escaping law, not applying it.”

We have had nearly two decades of panic about Free Speech on Campus and not a single case, not even the ones they made up, were as bad as what's happening now
This is the text of the email just sent to hundreds of international students telling them that their visas have been revoked due to activism or social media posts.
