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.

Five Professors have been awarded @erc.europa.eu Advanced Grants – the most the UofG has ever received in one round. Congratulations @jadamcarter.bsky.social, @sabrewster.bsky.social, @fergusmcneill.bsky.social, Ruth Dukes and Simon Hanslmayr! More: gla.ac/4lb3FIl #ERCAdG
