ICE agents only do this because they are extremely well-trained and experienced with the situations they are creating
ICE agents fled from the crowd and left behind their CONOPS battle plan for Minneapolis, including agent's names, hotel rooms, phone numbers, boxes of license plates, and tac radio frequencies.

Fully agree: the budget is a huge win AND things are definitively not OK. An entire generation of early career scientists has been severely affected, many more senior scientists have been pushed out of jobs, and there’s a lingering air of uncertainty that will affect decision-making for *years*.
This is a HUGE win…and one that happened because we ~collectively~ said “NO!”
But AAAS coming in and saying on record to the NYT “Science is doing ok. Things are not bad at all…” is baffling.
If things are hard for you as a scientist, please share in the comments.

Indonesia has the fourth largest user base on twitter. So while it is definitely disappointing that we haven't seen more meaningful action, this isn't nothing.
Indonesia is the first country to block access to xAI’s Grok due to its ability to generate CSAM and deepfake porn.
It’s quite disappointing that this is the only meaningful action that’s been taken after several days of this issue coming to light.

This is insane. Brooks says everyone is too blinded by ideology to see the truth of what the video shows. Then the host asks him what it shows and he refuses to answer.
“Left and right are equally to blame for everything all the time” is also an ideology!

the best antidote to blackpilling is remembering that every video you see of an ICE thug abusing their power was recorded by an American who volunteered to put themselves in harm's way for the sake of people they've likely never met and never will
/2 In light of that, I am in awe and deep respect of the people who are still showing up to monitor the ICE Gestapo, protect and defend their neighbors, do whatever they can to hold ICE to account and call out their lawlessness. What incredible bravery.
