1/ @dwallacewells.bsky.social in his Jan 28 newsletter from @nytimes.com makes the weakest argument for for a comprehensive Federal Vaccine Schedule. I think that serves the "other side" (#MAHA etc.).

@searaven2.bsky.social -25° in US is not the same as -25° ln the rest of the world: Fahrenheit vs Celsius. Fun fact: -40°.is the same in both systems.

Frank Graves on X: "Just an interpretive note. Trump approval is not somewhat higher for CPC supporters than LPC and NDP. It is not twice as high . It's not 10 Xs higher. It's 45Xs higher. Unbelievable. And this is hugely connected to desire to leave the the country. 51st state anyone?" / X

@nytimes.com article explaining rare earth elements never uses the word "element". www.nytimes.com/2025/04/15/t...

@nytimes.com headline "Bourbon Is Banned, California Wine Canceled, as Canada Pulls U.S. Alcohol". Quite inaccurate. Canada did no such thing. Nothing is banned. Various Canadian provincial agencies have pulled some or all US alcoholic drinks from their shelves.

@nytimes.com headline "Trump’s Foreign Policy May Be Crude, But It’s Realist". The same reasoning would call the holocaust "realist".

@nytimes.com Headline "Late Night Tackles Trump’s Tariff Tug-of-War". This is no tug-of-war, this is an unprovoked attack.

NYT: Lutnick said the president was looking carefully at people who were trying to follow USMCA, negotiated and signed in his first term. “The president is considering giving you relief if you live under those rules,”. “If you haven’t lived under those rules, well, then you got to pay the tariff.”

Bothsidesism in Canada's newspaper of record. @theglobeandmail.com article www.theglobeandmail.com/world/articl... describes the Zelensky/Trump/Vance meeting as "The shouting match". That's not what happened.
