DAILY STAR: Poodles: an apology #TomorrowsPapersToday

The share of Americans employed by the government steeply dropped in the decades leading up to 2000, and has remained essentially flat since. A bloating federal workforce is a myth.

Republicans are slashing Medicaid to pay for tax cuts that disproportionately serve the wealthy. The top 1% will get an average of $70,000. How does that make sense? My @morningjoe-msnbc.bsky.social Chart

Ukraine's leading newspaper on what Trump is doing.

Finally! Crocus (croci) are late this year. 🙂 A thread #gardens #flowers #SpringIsComing #gardening

Roses are red Dead is romance...

Somehow January lasted eight years but now there’s only a fortnight of February to go.

The big takeaway here is that Reuters won this case against the AI company on grounds they violated fair use—the judge found the AI company was guilty because, in using copyrighted works to generate its output, it “meant to compete... by developing a market substitute.” Huge.

We have a dangerous shortage of air-traffic controllers in the US — Trump should act to end the shortage and restore safety to American air space. (But he’ll probably continue to blame DEI instead.) cc: @axios.com

For those not familiar with how financial markets work, US Treasuries are the ultimate safe asset, used as collateral for everything. Even a hint that some Treasuries might not be honored could bring everything to a screeching halt 1/

Hail to the Chief Censor!

This Arbroath couple are putting working class into the classics – just don’t call them posh

Over the last 70 years, the US has spent less and less on foreign aid — in this case, Make America Great Again would mean more aid, not less. My @morningjoe-msnbc.bsky.social Chart

The US spends a small amount of its GDP on foreign aid compared to other major economies. Dismantling USAID won’t help Americans — it’s just cruel & reckless political theatrics. My @morningjoe-msnbc.bsky.social Chart

Today is National Texas Day so this is your annual reminder that in Norwegian slang something that is batshit crazy can be described as “texas” (for example… “Florida sure is texas”)

Mainly for Mick really expressing the feelings of every British man who ever felt pretty cool putting on his odd socks & pink trousers this morning only for a bloody Frenchman in a suit to turn up

Coming to your town soon

My first and definitely last time working with the Los Angeles Times. Editing out the most urgent point of an OpEd in the minutes before sending to press while then also assigning a title and image that suggest an argument entirely opposite to the author’s clear intent is pretty shitty.

Just got this tip from an airline pilot

🚨 BREAKING: Police have just released photos of one of the perpetrators in the theft in the Drents Museum. Police are hot on the heels of three suspected thieves probably from the province of Noord-Holland. It's a matter of hours now before they are caught. God PLEASE let the helmet be safe!

To our many American friends. The National Academies have assembled a package of resources for researchers facing threats or attacks in the US www.nationalacademies.org/chr/resource...

If you're a scientist that serves on an NSF panel that got cancelled today, I'd love to talk to you about it for an NPR story. DM, email or reach out on signal.

I just think everyone should see this. It's the best film I've seen in years. And no, I don't work for them! Coming out soon in the US; see it before it's too late. Attention: masterpiece 😍🤩😍♥️

Just another way to make middle class and poor people pay for the lifestyles of the rich and famous.
