OPINION: As a court case threatens to upend compensation for student athletes, women in college sports stand to lose millions because of a single word.

Vance had to be moved to an "undisclosed location" because democracy was scaring the crap out of him. Vance like Trump wants us to bend a knee and be silent. We need to be even LOUDER!!!

President Zelensky of Ukraine meets with Western leaders, minus the United States.

"Kansas senator’s rural town hall meeting swamped by people mad at Trump administration" lawrencekstimes.com/2025/03/01/k...

Volodymyr Zelenskiy was greeted by a cheering crowd and a warm embrace from Prime Minister Keir Starmer as he arrived for talks in London after a confrontational meeting with Donald Trump reut.rs/4ijevKU

'Did you even say thank you?'

With the economy sliding toward recession, mass layoffs underway, and a growing geopolitical crisis, now seems like a terrible time for both the president and vice president to be on vacation — just weeks into the job.

Deserved

Wait - so Jimbo was in town and didn’t have a town hall? I wonder why . . .

This is Winston Churchill visiting Washington DC to request assistance in the war against Germany. Notice he is wearing a "zip suit" and not a traditional suit. This was to honor the British troops--the same reason Zelensky dresses the way he does.

What happened to Little Marco?

I’m with Ukraine! 🇺🇦

NEW: Senator Marshall (R-KS) RUNS AWAY, fleeing his own town hall after being asked about DOGE firing Veterans. MAKE HIM GO VIRAL.

It's very reasonable for normal, upstanding Americans to make clear that they won't stand for unAmerican trash like JD Vance. Everyone has their limits.

This is not an effort to roll back "DEI" It's an effort to roll back civil rights "Agencies across the federal government are dismantling offices that enforce civil rights and antidiscrimination laws...weakening the government’s ability to deliver on legal obligations to protect workers’ rights"

Martin O’Malley, earlier this week: “Social Security is being driven to a total system collapse. I give the DOGE kids and co- President Musk 30-90 days before they crater it to the point of interruption of benefits.” 🇺🇸 @martinomalley.bsky.social www.nytimes.com/2025/02/28/b...

Today was a grim, terrible day for the United States and the cause of democracy. Putin, along with other dictators around the world, can finally look at Trump with confidence and think: one of us. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

He’s so close

That Oval Office debacle today solidified two things: 1. The US is not a trusted ally 2. Zelensky is a hero

As a kid watching Red Dawn in the 80s, I definitely though the Russian takeover of the US would involve at least *some* tanks

Democracies stand with Ukraine.

literally every time I talk to friends

How Zelenskyy had the willpower to NOT do this to that ignorant, narcissistic bully, I’ll never know.

So, actually, it always was Russia.

It’s time to say it plainly. America’s leadership has switched sides in the war. The American people have not, and they should speak up.

We don’t admit people to the hospital for quarantining. They can do that at home. The many kids admitted to the hospital in Lubbock have severe respiratory complications from measles. Stunning ignorance from highest health official, embarrassing really.

This just in: it's official. #raygun www.raygunsite.com bsky.app/profile/atru...

IU said that the Title VIII program, which aims to further American expertise on countries in Eastern Europe and of the former Soviet Union, was terminated.

If George Dale in Muncie, Indiana could risk his life - and spend regular time in jail - to constantly make fun of the KKK in his newspaper in the 1920s, we can take no shit from MAGAs today. dansinker.com/posts/2025-0...

We care about small businesses because we are a small business. If you're not spending today, show up for your indie bookshop in other ways—such as following them on social media, leaving a positive review online, signing up for a newsletter, etc. Support doesn't always require budget 💕

The American Federation of Teachers, and its 1.8 million members, has an estimated $4 trillion of retirement security assets. Now the union is reaching out to six giant assets managers and asking them to reconsider investments in Tesla. finance.yahoo.com/news/teacher...

We're going to lose Canada and Mexico and Europe very, very soon if Trump and Vance aren't careful after this Zelensky disaster. I don't expect they will be careful. We're about to be on a geopolitical island in the middle of North America.

No, the meeting did not go badly for Ukraine. It exposed in the most undeniable, unequivocal way possible the pro-Putin commitments of the president and vice president. That was information Americans and allies needed to have clear before them.

IVF became a flashpoint in natl politics last yr after Alabama ruled frozen embryos are extrauterine children. Facing backlash, a FL bill to recognize embryos under the state's wrongful death statute—threatening IVF, abortion providers & legal harassment from abusers—was withdrawn. Now it's back.

Vance: I think it's disrespectful for you to come to the Oval Office to try to litigate this in front of the American media...You should be thanking the president... Zelenskyy: Have you ever been to Ukraine?... Vance: I know what happens is you bring people, you bring them on a propaganda tour...
