BREAKING: The Amherst Town Council in Amherst, MA is the first elected body to call on state + local prosecutors to enforce state criminal laws against federal agents when they commit crimes. Let this be a spark that leads to similar votes across the country. 1/ www.commondreams.org/news/amherst...

A French Foreign Ministry source said that it would "refuse" to allow the activist's death to be "exploited" by the Trump administration, and that Ambassador Kushner was now banned from meeting officials due to the "apparent misunderstanding of the basic expectations of an ambassador".

BREAKING Former ICE agent: On my first day training new cadets, I received secretive orders to teach them to violate the Constitution by entering homes without a judicial warrant.

Some say that republicans should be grateful that women are seeking equality instead of revenge. But if I’m being honest, I’m kinda leaning toward revenge at this point.

Every ordinary working American is basically Mr. Micawber.

Katyal: "Here's the problem for Donald Trump: his DOJ, in our case, filed briefs to the courts that said Section 122 is inapplicable and the president can't use it. So now he's turned around & he's gonna have to somehow argue against his own DOJ's interpretation of the statute. I think that's tough"

The FBI Director, everyone. You paid for it.

PLEASE, every adult, get the Shingrex vaccine. It may be the most effective vaccine in history for its on-label use to prevent shingles, BUT ALSO, studies in the UK find it effective in helping a host of other health issues. Researchers said they long suspected that viruses cause other maladies.

A tariff “refund” mostly goes to whoever wrote the tariff check: the importer of record. That’s not the same person who paid more at the register. So refunds -- if they're offered -- might sound like consumer relief, but in reality, they're corporate windfalls.

The call has been made! NYC Public Schools will have a full snow day tomorrow.

This is about our secret and best hospital ship, the USNS Trojan Horse, with its crew of the 138th “Definitely Not an Invasion Force” Medical Brigade

Greenland has universal healthcare because they are part of Denmark. Maybe Trump should send the hospital ship to somewhere people don't always have access to affordable healthcare -- like the US.

In just 25 hours, the U.S. has had four tariff regimes: 1. Liberation Day Mark_II_re-revised_(final) 2. Liberation Day Mark_II_re-revised_(final) - IEEPA tariffs 3. Liberation Day Mark_II_re-revised_(final) - IEEPA tariffs +10% 4. Liberation Day Mark_II_re-revised_(final) - IEEPA tariffs +10% + 5%

gotta love the "yeahbut" in that lede

Great game, Canada! It was an honor/honour to play against such fantastic neighbors/ neighbours.

Donald Trump takes credit for US hockey gold medal youtu.be/MDOCa8dCHZ4?...

Thank you to Greenland for providing emergency medical care to a US sailor on board the submarine, since we did not have adequate resources in the area to treat him. I’m sorry that our president felt the need to cover up our shortcomings with a deranged ghost hospital ship post.

We wanted to understand how the president can impose new tariffs after the Supreme Court struck down his old ones. So we talked to three unvaccinated Jason Aldean fans at a Red Lobster in Lubbock.

Dr. Amy Acton: 78,694 Ohio donors Ramaswamy: 39,260 Ohio donors 96% of Acton’s donations are under $100. You get David Pepper as Lt. Gov, as a special, intelligent bonus!!!!! (Ohioans, note the Texas donations for Ramaswamy. Vote wisely.) @amyactonoh.bsky.social @davidpepperoh.bsky.social

I was 28. I went with my friend, Dorothy, to her medical appt in London. Walked 6 blocks to the surgery. Waited 10mins. Seen, stitches removed, antibiotics. Walked out. Went to tea. No bill, no payment. Until then, I did not know what free healthcare was. I’ll bet most Americans have no idea.

Imagine if HEALTHCARE WAS FREE in America, as it is in Greenland. Just imagine. 🇺🇸🇬🇱

Do we win free Healthcare?

You cannot reform this. @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social

When the Founding Fathers wrote the Constitution, they didn't take political parties into consideration. They never expected that the President and Congress would conspire together rather than keeping each other in check.

Thank you, Neal Katyal, for taking and winning the tariffs case at SCOTUS. There is a reason they are called tariffs: Taxes And Ripoff, Idiot! For Fuck’s Sake! @nealkatyal.bsky.social

“Conceptually distinct.”

Healthcare in Greenland is publicly funded, free at the point of use, and despite geographical challenges considered very good. Healthcare costs in the USA are extortionate and responsible for 60% of all US bankruptcies. So maybe Denmark should be sending hospital ships the other way.

"President Trump's idea of ​​sending an American hospital ship here to Greenland has been noted. But we have a public healthcare system where treatment is free for citizens. It is a deliberate choice." Greenland PM Jens-Frederik Nielsen

On a smaller scale. (from @hcrichardson.bsky.social)

Remember those fees you paid for services? Well, you’re not going to be getting those services.

From climbing on roofs, to falling out of trees, to flying airplanes off of ships and rockets into space, I’m kind of shocked both of us made it this far. Happy Birthday, Scott.

This message is for anyone involved in the administration or working for them directly or indirectly Just stop doing what he tells you to do :) It’s just that simply. Disobey. Deny. Slow things down. Act confused. Sabotage things. Make a mess of the paperwork.

“While the U.S. added 1.46 million jobs in 2024, it added only 181,000 in 2025. Manufacturing lost about 108,000 jobs in 2025.” @hcrichardson.bsky.social

As the world reels from the president's rant and threats of additional tariff chaos, I'd just like to remind the UK that they recently arrested someone who could probably bring down this entire house of cards with very little incentive.

It’s a tax.

NEW: Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker sent Trump a letter and an invoice demanding the return of $8.6 billion taken from Illinois families after the Supreme Court ruled Trump’s tariffs are illegal.

Hey Cincinnati Reds: Fuck you and your “Businessman’s Special.” I am the woman buying the tickets for these guys. What I mean is, I AM THE BOSS. Fuck you. I love your players, I love baseball, but I really loathe your ownership and marketing. Hey Elly and Andrew - see you soon.

Turns out there’s an economic cost to everyone hating us.

The Supreme Court:

Is this what liberation day was supposed to feel like?

Someone let the penguins of the Heard and McDonald Islands know that their long ordeal is coming to an end.

Don't congratulate John Roberts or the Supreme Court. Congratulate Rick Woldenberg, the Chicago-area leader of Learning Resources, an educadtional toy company that had the courage to sue the president of the United States to save his family business. As well as everyone else who stepped up.

A 6-3 verdict. Amazing.

Key issue to bear in mind as you watch today's political response to the Supreme Court tariff decision: The Court didn't say that the US can't issue tariffs, simply that the President has to convince (the Republican-controlled) Congress first. If tariffs are great, that should be easy to do.

Oscar Wilde did a speaking tour of the US in 1882. He came to Cincinnati three times during this period. Local artists Evans Mirageas and Audrey Chait have written a one act play about Wilde’s visit. March 3 7:30PM at #Cincinnati Music Hall. www.cincinnatiopera.org/underscore
