Northern Ireland man from Lisburn kidnapped by Trump’s Ice raids because he “looked like a Mexican”. He had the correct visa, all his documents. He’s never been in trouble with police.

Held in terrible conditions. A fellow captive couldn’t get his medication and dropped dead of a heart attack

US climate scientists need all the help they can get. Including from foul-mouthed comedians! 🤡😱😱

Watch Emmy Award-Winning David Cross team up with Prof Michael Oppenheimer in the US launch of the hit series "Climate Science Translated".

Thanks for posting. But this article is two years old. Do you happen to know, if the information is still current?

This statement from the NSF is insane.

Science is, in essence, designed to separate the true from the false.

Understanding how falsehoods spread is key to the scientific endeavor. It is not a violation of free speech to be proven wrong.

This exciting resolution from Rutgers University Senate is exactly the kind of model I think higher ed needs: a mutual defense pact of, in this case, Big 10 schools. They call for member institutions to create a joint defense fund and make resources available to any member institution under attack.
Excerpt from Rutgers University Senate resolution calling for a Mutual Academic Defense Compact. The excerpt reads:

"BE IT RESOLVED THAT, the Rutgers University Senate urges the President of Rutgers University to formally propose and help establish a Mutual Academic Defense Compact (MADC) among all members of the Big Ten Academic Alliance;

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED THAT, under this compact, all participating institutions shall commit meaningful funding to a shared or distributed defense fund. This fund shall be used to provide immediate and strategic support to any member institution under direct political or legal infringement;"

If you accept that non-citizens have no right to due process, you are accepting that citizens have no right to due process. All the government has to do is claim that you are not a citizen; without due process you have no chance to prove the contrary.

This slope is getting slipperier by the day. If I were one of the 13 million permanent residents in the US I’d probably be self-censoring any unpopular opinions, and that’s a much deeper affront to American values than any opinion I could express.

The US government has been turned over to a group of extraordinarily ignorant people, and they are working to destroy science in this country. Cutting over half the NSF budget would save < 0.1% of the federal budget, but do incalculable harm. Simply heartbreaking.

"sodass weder bei der Bestimmung der Tagesordnung noch bei den Abstimmungen zur Sache auch nur ein einziges Mal eine zufällige oder tatsächlich herbeigeführte Mehrheit mit denen da von der AfD zustande kommt."
Friedrich Merz im November 2024: "Wir sollten mit Ihnen, den Sozialdemokraten, und Ihnen, den Grünen, vereinbaren, dass wir nur die Entscheidungen auf die Tagesordnung des Plenums setzen, über die wir uns zuvor mit Ihnen von der SPD und den Grünen in der Sache geeinigt haben."
