I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.
This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.
It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.
Love this piece in The Guardian. But can we allow for feeding a movement AND promoting mutual understanding, both are important and worth fighting for. Two different lenses for understanding belonging. So much to think about, thank you @saigrundy.bsky.social

terrifying, truly
Thank you, I needed this in my feed today!
They're moving very quickly...
And meanwhile, NIH (maybe other agencies?) decided to cut the facilities & administrative costs (indirect costs) universities can receive to an arbitrary 15% today. Effective today. grants.nih/gov/grants/g...
Looks like the NIH is cutting facilities & administrative expenses to 15%, immediately. grants.nih.gov/grants/guide...
Stay informed.
And those wise, wise eyes.
Read this. It’s important to get the details right.
I really needed this...

Yes, I have been following you on the old twitter, and you were doing so much! We at Northern Arizona University have been doing big things with funding from NIMHD, which we worry will just disappear. Hope we can all diversify our funding base and keep doing the important work.
Adam Schiff is a hero.
Okay, this is freaking me out a bit...
These programs are SO IMPORTANT. These students are our future, the future of our whole world. Ugh.
Yes, we are getting passports renewed as well... But dang it, this is my home!
Take full control where we can!
Listen to @asharangappa.bsky.social - she knows what she is talking about. And the danger presented by Kash Patel is five-alarm concerning.
I know the Washington Post has been catching a lot of hell from the Left, rightfully so, but....
You gotta love this headline:
Yes, and here we are today in a quagmire of speculation and horribleness. So bad!
Because of lawmakers like David Gregory, who are writing bills for bounties on other humans, a 25-year-old Missouri man kidnapped and assaulted a woman in southern Missouri while demanding she show her papers. This is the world they want us to live in. Bigots. missouriindependent.com/2025/01/28/m...
I think Greta belongs on here as well!
Wow, they're gorgeous!
ICE raids across Austin today. Confirmed by local news and DEA Houston office. Keep your head on a swivel, know your rights, help your neighbors prepare for it as well.
This is dire.
Thank you, Christiane Amanpour, for asking the hard questions and for your honest and intelligent reporting over the years. I value you so much! www.theguardian.com/media/2025/j...
Not saying it's not happening--we're all pretty freaked out--but the NIMHD page is still up, thankfully. www.nimhd.nih.gov
