Dr. Richard Axel, who served as the co-director of the Zuckerman Mind Brain Behavior Institute, said his relationship with Epstein "was a serious error in judgment."

BREAKING: The Department of Education has ended its directive that attempted to restrict diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts in schools nationwide. This is a victory for academic freedom and education equity.

5-Year-Old Girl Deported to Honduras Despite Being U.S. Citizen

So keep pushing. Anything short of ICE’s abolition isn’t nearly enough. And I’d say that even ICE’s abolition should only be the start of ending the violence that came to feel “normal” under Trump.

The biggest risk in this moment is something sociologists call “symbolic compliance.” That’s when an institution that is violating civil rights gives the public just enough symbolic victories that accountability efforts lose steam before there has been any meaningful change.

Reminder that, as of the latest reports, Liam Ramos is still in prison in Texas - now for 5 days. His parents are legal asylum seekers with no criminal record.

GHF Whistleblower Anthony Aguilar Announces Run for North Carolina’s 13th Congressional District This morning he explained to Breaking Points why he decided to run, and why he chose to break from the 2-party-system and run as an independent candidate...

Alex Pretti was a colleague at the VA. We hired him to recruit for our trial. He became an ICU nurse- I lover working with him. He was a good kind person who lived to help and these fuckers executed him. White. Hot. Rage.

BREAKING: The ayatollah of Iran says he is weighing up the possibility of a war of liberation if ICE agents don't stop murdering peaceful protesters in the US

I don't think some people realize what the President already making it plain he considers it a justified shooting is really going to mean.

NEWS: In a heartbreaking video, after ICE shot and killed a woman in Minneapolis, a woman who was in the same SUV cries out: “They killed my wife. I don’t know what to do." “We stopped to videotape, and they shot her in the head,” the distraught woman sobs. www.advocate.com/news/minneso...

An off-duty ICE agent was just confronted in Minneapolis after people noticed a Nazi SS lightning bolt tattoo on his neck. If you’re proud enough to ink it on your neck, why are you running when people notice?

ICE didn’t just shoot a woman, they blocked the ambulance. Eyewitnesses say thugs parked SUVs to delay lifesaving care and refused to let a doctor reach her body. Then DHS spun a story to justify it. It’s murder. Call it out.

cannot begin to fathom the how it would feel to watch my partner get shot in the face multiple times, at point blank range, for no reason...and then hear the secretary of homeland security call them a domestic terrorist on tv. such a sick and deranged series of events i'm at a loss for words

man it's so awesome that state force can apparently only ever be deployed against people protesting cruelty and never against the ones causing the cruelty

BREAKING: The U.S. Secretary of Energy says that the United States intends to control Venezuelan oil, including overseeing the sale of the country’s oil production “indefinitely.”

Less than a mile where George Floyd was killed, ICE agents murdered a U.S. Citizen in cold blood. Every member of Congress who does not call for the resignation or impeachment of ICE Barbie Kristi Noem is complicit. Silence in the face of violence is approval.

We should all sit with this ICE murder. Any one of us could be executed by ICE, and our government wouldn’t bat an eye. Instead they’d just lie about us to the world.

Fuck Bari Weiss, fuck bootlicking regime propaganda

learning dynamic causal modeling would be sooo much easier if i wasn't so distracted by the extreme moral depravity of our govt, domestically & abroad, and disgusted by the label of democracy and its implication of the working class majority in this violence (now and historically)

Fuck ICE. Fuck ICE. Fuck ICE. Fuck ICE. Fuck ICE. Fuck ICE. Fuck ICE. Fuck ICE. Fuck ICE. Fuck ICE. Fuck ICE. Fuck ICE. Fuck ICE. Fuck ICE. Fuck ICE. Fuck ICE. Fuck ICE. Fuck ICE. Fuck ICE. Fuck ICE. Fuck ICE. Fuck ICE. Fuck ICE. Fuck ICE. Fuck ICE. Fuck ICE.

ICE shot a legal observer in the face in Minneapolis. Abolish ICE and prosecute every single one of their deputized terrorists.

🔴 BREAKING: An ICE agent has shot & killed a woman in Minneapolis during a federal immigration enforcement operation. Federal officials claim the woman was driving a vehicle that moved toward agents, prompting an officer to open fire, AP reports. Witnesses at the scene have disputed that account...

No self-respecting human being would ever have a haircut like that. They're actively recruiting incel nazi freaks and giving them guns www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2...

Mayor Jacob Frey: “To ICE, get the fuck out of Minneapolis.”

There is video of the shooting of a woman by ICE in Minneapolis circulating that shows an ICE agent repeatedly shooting her at point blank range while she tries to drive off. There was no obvious threat to any ICE agent.

plaster this cowards face everywhere

🚨 HAPPENING NOW! Protestors are on the streets of NYC demanding hands off Venezuela! It’s simple, the people of the United States stand against the U.S.’s criminal war on Venezuela and for peace, justice and the sovereignty of the people of Venezuela! From: The People's Forum

orchestrating regime changes in latin america explicitly in pursuit of natural resources is arguably more american than apple pie.. hegemony is a bipartisan project not a trump thing

too little too late every F31 diversity applicant and fellow from 2024 should be receiving a check from NIH for the emotional and financial damages of being discriminated against by the federal govt on the basis of identity

UN-backed experts declare famine in and around Gaza City

Cory Booker just spoke for 25 hours straight about defending democracy. Here's why we’re not clapping. — In 2019, he backed anti-BDS legislation — In 2019, he told AIPAC: “If I forget thee, O Israel…” — In 2021, he pushed normalization with Arab states—at Palestinians' expense

A good day to log off this website is when everyone is praising an unapologetic genocide guy

Booker doing what the Neoliberal corporate Democrats do best: theater in place of actual material pushback or change. Bookers stunt tonight is nothing more than a photo op and achieves nothing beyond political theater. Like other corporate Democrats he is unwilling to do anything beyond theater

Yesterday NIH revised the NOFO for the Parent F31 Fellowship to remove words like "diverse" and "gender", and to delete a statement encouraging predominantly BIPOC institutions to apply for funding

advocating for science right now also means protecting academics' right to free speech, demanding that our institutions keep ICE off our campuses, & talking as much about the PhD students and professors who have been abducted by plain clothes "officers" as we do about the corruption @ NIH

RUMEYSA OZTURK KIDNAPPING VIDEO Here is a video of federal agents detaining Tufts University PhD student Rumeysa Ozturk Tuesday night. Rumeysa was abducted as she was heading to meet with friends to break her Ramadan fast.

And study section is postponed a day before the meeting. After taking the time to review the applications. And a few of my applications were pulled earlier this week (after I reviewed them) because of diversity. It’s disheartening and awful.

I am livid that my student who submitted a diversity F31 and received an outstanding score, near the top of the fundable range, was told to submit again. Refusing to fund F31s from URMs while funding regular F31s from white/privileged students with worse scores is blatant discrimination.

BREAKING: Over 400 people have been killed and hundreds more injured in Israel's renewed strikes in Gaza, health ministry in the enclave says. cnn.it/3FwVrus

‼️‼️‼️ NIH is blatantly discriminating against underrepresented young scientists (again)

If this sounds familiar, that's because it is: For the second time in as many months, the NIH withdrew applications to a grant program for doctoral students from underrepresented backgrounds. #HigherEd #AcademicSky #PhDSky

The NIH just pulled all the F31 Diversity fellowship applications from the study section I'm on ...

I hate that I have to even type this post but the information must be shared: F31 diversity #nih grants are being removed again from study section (after being put back in for a period of time). Just to let yall know. My student was notified yesterday. @insidehighered.com @jeremymberg.bsky.social

Yall ten years ago: why would a bunch of faculty ever need a union (sigh) we are not factory workers I hate unions blah blah deadweight loss blah blah Today: the furher says the university has to fire anyone who says anything bad about him I hope I dont go to the camps for saying tariffs are bad

changing "underrepresented students" to "students with underrecognized identities" in my biosketch because i'm petty & i wanna make the guy who has to ctrl+F grant proposals for DEI words' life harder

EPA is terminating more than two dozen protections against air and water pollution. It would overturn limits on soot from smokestacks that have been linked to respiratory problems in humans and premature deaths as well as restrictions on emissions of mercury, a neurotoxin.
