ICE dramatically cut its basic training amid a hiring spree meant to speed up the Trump administration’s deportation efforts, records obtained by The Post show, corroborating a whistleblower’s claim.
Rally to Stand up for Science - Saturday in DC and Richmond.
The fundamental premise behind AI-enabled cheating is that coursework is merely busy work, because your'e just doing it for professors.
We would never say that showing up for football practice is merely busy work because you're just doing it for your coaches.

A huge thanks to all who have helped us collect important information on the numbers and distribution of the UK’s wintering birds.
We aren't saying they'd win gold every time, but they'll definitely place. Which fish are you cheering for?
I know earth day is far away. However. I need something to look forward to right now & putting on a show with a bunch of hot babes talking about biodiversity is that light at the end of the tunnel I’m holding onto right now.
You should hold onto it too.

"Everybody rushed in saying these things are magical; they’re gonna save us hours. Those savings did not materialize...What’s the return on investment of saving six minutes per day?”
Sounds familiar...but scarier, given that it's healthcare w/ no oversight body to verify ANYTHING.

WISDOM IS BACK!
Still time to submit an abstract to the BE20 meeting! Please share.
Excited this new paper is out in Science Advances 📄✨ I think the results are important:
To tackle vertebrate declines which are often driven by interacting threats—🦠 disease, 🐍 invasives, 🧪 pollution, 🌡️ climate, multi-threat, systems-level conservation is key 🌍

Important paper. Schools are high-risk environments for respiratory disease transmission MAINLY because classrooms are underventilated. This problem has a workable solution - it just needs political will. Air quality is as important as water quality for public health. MT @martinmckee.bsky.social
Understatement of the year: That’s a big mismatch
“Some are saying we’ll have a 10% GDP loss at between 3C and 4C degrees [of global heating], but the physical climate scientists are saying the economy and society will cease to function as we know it. That’s a big mismatch,”
Excited to have this one out after over a decade of work. Strong evidence for why migration matters for ungulates.

The deepest confirmed fish observation occurred at ~8,300 m. I know the shape behind it is another fish’s tail, but my brain insists it looks like the foreground fish is wearing a party hat. #deepsea #marinelife

Mr. Cuban, I'm a professor at Yale School of Public Health. Here's a paper published by one of my colleagues in the top medical journal evaluating the Medicare for All Act, which would not only get us there, but would save $450B per year. Happy to discuss! www.thelancet.com/journals/lan...
New preprint up assessing the air quality and health benefits that could have been possible under the Inflation Reduction Act.

"The Arctic endured a year of record heat and shrunken sea ice as the world’s northern latitudes continue a rapid shift to becoming rainier and less ice-bound due to the climate crisis, scientists have reported." via @theguardian.com
A crazy event in the report: “Following the retreat of South Sawyer Glacier, a landslide in southeast Alaska’s Tracy Arm in August 2025 generated a tsunami that swept across the narrow fjord and ran nearly 1,600 feet up the other side. Fortunately, the fjord was empty of cruise ships.”

NCAR is foundational scientific infrastructure. This is escalating the assault on climate science, and there is a direct line between this step and the loss of many human lives.
