We have an Iranian scientist in our lab. [View all]

He's a fine scientist and a critical partner in our work. I consider him a friend.

(He despises the Iranian government just as much as I despise the orange ignorant pedophile, maybe more.)

He's not here today to work. I don't know where he is. I'm hoping he hasn't been picked up by the American answer to the Gestapo.

Update: I reached him. He's OK. He doesn't know the status of his family. He's OK..

I have a big sigh of relief. We're in the middle of something quite important.
