CBP searched a French scientist's phone and found messages critical of the Trump administration and its treatment of scientists. They confiscated his phone and computer and sent him back to Europe.

CBP found messages criticizing the Trump administration’s treatment of scientists, which, according to the agency, “conveyed hatred of Trump & could be qualified as terrorism.”

Summary

Idaho teacher Sarah Inama is defying her school district’s order to remove classroom posters promoting inclusivity, including one stating, "Everyone is welcome here."

The district claims the signs violate a policy requiring "content-neutral" decorations and argues that classrooms should be "distraction-free" environments.

Inama initially removed them but later rehung them, arguing the only opposing view to inclusion is exclusion.

Legal counsel upheld the district’s stance, giving her until the school year’s end to comply. Inama refuses, risking her job, and has received widespread support from the community and educators nationwide.
