"Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed."
-Dwight D. Eisenhower, 1953
Iβm grateful for faculty with expertise and track record on prevention & response plans for targeted harassment. Iβm most familiar with @rebekahtromble.bsky.socialβs projects researchersupport.org & expertvoicestogether.org - Iβm sure she can recommend others for everyone who needs help now
America needs a Surgeon General who follows the science, not trending conspiracies and pseudoscience. Tell your Senator to vote against Casey Means as our nationβs doctor!
"Tips for recording federal agents from ACLU organizers. Capture relevant details including agentsβ names, badge numbers, documents, and any weapons theyβre carrying. Capture context like the surrounding area. Record continuous video to capture the full sequence of events. Copy your photos or videos to other devices so they canβt be lost or deleted. Donβt delete the originals. Try to share your documentation with the impacted individualβs loved ones, their attorney, or local organizations working with impacted community members." Arrow pointing right.
"Tips to protect your digital privacy from ACLU legal experts. Turn off all biometric functions to unlock your phone, including fingerprint and face recognition. Ensure your phone has a strong password. Keep your phone in airplane mode when you donβt need to communicate with others. Turn off location services unless youβre actively using an app that needs access to your location. Communicate with others using secure, encrypted messaging apps."
We have the right to record ICE agents and other government officials at work in public.
Use these tips to document agentsβ actions.

Excellent thread! We can do good science (which can be an act of resistance) AND at the same time engage in more direct resistance.
Some of the most inspiring scientists have been those who contributed through their research AND through their activism.

If you see a meme that deliberately avoids listing a source, a media outlet, a link, or anything *remotely* resembling indicia of reliability, do *not* repost it unless it's to tell everyone to ignore it and do better. We're heading into societal collapse, and we're not ready for it. Not even close.
This is such a timely and critical topic for a writing competition
@sfn.org @sfnjournals.bsky.social and other American research focused science orgs should do similar competitions

More of this, please. The folks in this grassroots group are heroes.
Haven Watch lives by the promise, βNo One Walks Alone.β Day or night, they show up. When people are released from ICE detention, volunteers meet them in the cold, disoriented, and exhausted.
Beautiful and devastating all at once.

If there was an all-powerful being (perhaps a god?) who wasnβt too busy to help, he or she could intervene to assure that truth and justice flourished and evil was thwarted. Know anyone like that?

Thank you for doing the advanced math on the siege. He may be including in his productivity assessment: children terrorized, citizens injured or killed, civil rights stomped on, neighborhoods tear-gassed, businesses destroyed and general mayhem. After all, wasnβt all of this the goal?

Friends, can I ask you to spread the word that we have a THREE-YEAR postdoc in American history at Cambridge up for grabs - ANY field, but applications are due March 1 so don't delay - apply, apply, apply! networks.h-net.org/jobs/69790/u...
WTH?! I havent received my ANTIFA sweatshirt and tote bag despite being up to date on membership fees. Who can I contact about this?

Just had a Super Bowl halftime where the singer:
1) boasts about the poor place heβs from;
2) boosts the value of agriculture;
3) celebrates small town life;
4) highlights the joy of inter-generational celebrations; and
5) promotes marriage.
And tomorrow, the MAGA movement will attack it.
DID YOU KNOW! There are several norovirus vaccines in late stage development right now??

1. It was not an accident.
2. It was not a staffer.
3. While the president may have dementia his racism is not due to dementia.
4. He isnβt sorry. He means every racist thought he shares.
5. His base agrees with him.
6. He will do it again.
7. No one in power will hold him accountable.
