I'm always late on Twitter and it's been a tiring month, but I'm going to cherish this for a bit: Michael Florian (U.Arizona) and I will co-lead a 70-hour Cycle 2 JWST program to study the building blocks of galaxies: star forming regions magnified due to gravitational lensing!!

Seems like it should be a much bigger story that two DOGE employees leaked Social Security numbers to a Republican group focused on overturning elections.
NEWS: The Social Security Administration has referred two DOGE employees for Hatch Act violations after discovering contacts with a political group seeking SSA data to overturn election results. https://t.co/H4MLySZcdP

No surprise here. Parents are preparing him for the only job opportunity that this country has in abundance. More money, status, power compared to capitalism’s gift to India- quick comm delivery apps.

Leftists built the labor protections you take for granted; the 8-hour workday, weekends, child labor bans, OSHA, and the right to unionize. None of that came from centrists voting for the lesser evil on anything. It came from left labor unions and coalitions speaking up
@Teamamisu @wrestlegramps Tell me 1 thing leftist have actually done. One achievement

Two men in ICE detention say they saw guards kill a fellow detainee. Now the Trump administration is trying to deport the witnesses. This looks a lot like a cover-up. We need an independent investigation NOW.

The two men’s eyewitness accounts of the Jan. 3 death of Geraldo Lunas Campos at a Texas detention camp differ from the Department of Homeland Security’s account of the incident.

The president of the United States is extremely mentally ill and it’s putting all of our lives at risk. The 25th Amendment exists for a reason—we need to invoke it immediately.

As true today as it was then. Rohith Vemula changed the way we talk about Dalit rights forever.
When Rohith Vemula died seven years ago, the notion of Dalitness was no where close to where it is. His last letter broke the dam of Dalit resistance that had been edging on the verge of explosion for decades. The Dalit discourse we see online today exists because of his words.

The Pentagon has failed its EIGHTH audit in a row. It is the only agency that has NEVER passed an audit. Yet we keep writing essentially blank checks to defense contractors with little accountability and few results to show for it, while ignoring the needs of our troops who

ICE IS KIDNAPPING INDIGENOUS PEOPLE
The Oglala Sioux Tribe is still trying to locate four members kidnapped by ICE agents in Minneapolis last week, and many Native people in the Twin Cities have felt scared to leave the house to go to work or get groceries. https://t.co/59ZKkGmeng

ICE hiring literal Nazis to represent them in court. And instead of kicking him out for white supremacy, they reward him by keeping him on the job.
BREAKING: James Rodden, an ICE prosecutor who the Observer identified last year as the operator of an X account that posted “America is a White nation," “‘Migrants’ are all criminals,” and apparent praise of Adolf Hitler, appeared to be back at work today. https://t.co/s09E0wP8Q0

ICE is literally shooting mothers in the face. And the Democrats want to respond with “Um, excuse me, may I scan your QR code so I can speak to your manager?”
Scoop in here: Rep. Ritchie Torres introducing a bill that would require ICE officers to wear QR codes that you can scan to get their full name, badge number and other identifying info. @Axios

No reporting. No story attached. No evidence. Just straightforward state propaganda.
BREAKING: The ICE agent who fatally shot Renee Good on Jan. 7 in Minneapolis, Jonathan Ross, suffered internal bleeding to the torso following the incident, according to two U.S. officials briefed on his medical condition.

I like how she framed this as these protestors just stumbling into a Jewish neighborhood and screaming Hamas chants and completely left out the part where the crowd was protesting the illegal sale of Palestinian land in the West Bank. Just a totally morally bankrupt individual.
Hey so marching into a predominantly Jewish neighborhood and leading with a chant saying “we support Hamas” is a disgusting and antisemitic thing to do. Pretty basic!

Horrific scenes and reports from Gaza, as Israel resumes full scale bombardment across the strip. A besieged people, trying to survive bombs, disease, despair and social degradation in a concentration camp.

This image from photog Chris Juhn in Minneapolis, from today's incident - the Minneapolis liberal will call for the prosecution of the other law enforcement officer who murdered Renee Good, but not this officer. How do yall do the cognitive dissonance?
