Spent Saturday with President Obama and New York's Cutest — turns out my first name is Mayor and I need to be doing more squats.

Trump Administration Takes Steps to Refund $166 Billion in Tariffs

Starting today, companies that paid Trump's illegal tariffs can seek a refund.

You know who won't get any relief? YOU, the consumer, who's paid for them all along.

That's outrageous. Republicans need to join Democrats to stop Trump's stupid tariffs & deliver relief to American families.

There’s no crying in baseball!!!! 😭

Atlantic current shows two-decade decline across four deep-ocean monitoring sites A paper published in the journal Science Advances is adding to the growing body of research showing that the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) is weakening. In this new study, instead of relying mainly on computer models, scientists used two decades of direct ocean measurements to confirm the decline.

Atlantic Ocean sensors confirm a consistent two-decade decline in the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation. Data from four mooring arrays across the western boundary verify a weakening transport signal below 1,000 meters, validating concerns of long-term circulation shifts.

New measures aim to redirect traffic and reduce pressure on this fragile ecosystem.

Josh Rogin: “Somebody shorted the oil market today by hundreds of millions of dollars exactly 20 minutes before Trump made his announcement—

If you see that once, it could be a coincidence. But that's happened at least three times, if not more, since the war began — that's a pattern”

Good morning Bluesky.

Say hello to our resident Orca, in front of the Seattle waterfront during a gorgeous PNW sunset. He was traveling with his family and T034s, T037/T037Bs. Those little ones in the pods are always the most playful ones. We love our whales. This photo should be a poster!

As e-bike crashes send an increasing number of people to the hospital, cities search for solutions Cities look to registration, regulation and infrastructure improvement to cut number of e-bike injuries and deaths

“When we think about e-bike crashes and deaths related to e-bikes, the vast majority are cars and trucks killing people on e-bikes as opposed to people on e-bikes injuring somebody else”

Seattle's traffic deaths are climbing. One City Council member wants an audit to find out why Seattle’s goal is zero traffic deaths and serious injuries by 2030. Right now, the numbers are far from zero — and going nowhere but up.

Ohio's public universities are eliminating nearly 90 degree programs as a result of Senate Bill 1 • Ohio Capital Journal Nearly 90 degree programs have been identified to be cut at Ohio’s public universities since Senate Bill 1 was signed into law a year ago.

If you think legislation that targets “low enrollment degrees” only impacts the humanities please look at this list. Degrees in chemistry, math, physics, political science, data analytics, psychology and economics are being eliminated. ohiocapitaljournal.com/2026/04/16/o...

A tweet from Representative Thomas Massie that reads: I just viewed 2 Top Secret FISA docs. 1) FISA Court opinion that raises serious concerns about FBI implementation of FISA 702. 2) letter by Senator Wyden describing a secret government interpretation of FISA law. The Constitution requires I vote No on FISA 702 reauthorization.

I sent a classified letter to House and Senate colleagues about a secret interpretation of surveillance law that every American should be concerned about.

Representative Massie is right. The Constitution requires EVERY member to vote against a clean reauthorization.
