This Day in History: The Boston Massacre (Sunday, March 5)

This Day in History:, The Boston Massacre.

March 5, 1770.

A skirmish in front of the Boston Custom House between British soldiers and angry colonists ended in violence when the troops opened fire on the crowd.

Three Americans were killed instantly and several other men eventually died from their injuries.

The incident followed several years of tensions and violence in colonial Massachusetts.

... partly due to revenue duties imposed on the colonists by the Townshed Acts passed by British Parliament.

The violence turned colonial sentiment against the British and King George in the years leading up to the American Revolution.

John Adams wrote that the "foundation of American independence was laid" by the massacre

Harvard University lawsuit targets the Trump administration over a federal funding freeze exceeding $2.2 billion.

Trump’s government alleges campus antisemitism and is pushing universities to meet ideological demands. Harvard argues the funding block is politically motivated and violates the First Amendment. Other elite universities are also under pressure, but none have taken as bold a stance.

Trump Signs Orders Scrapping Biden-Era Rules, Targets Appliance And Consumer Product Regulations

President Donald Trump has signed a series of executive orders repealing key Biden-era energy regulations. These include controversial standards imposed on gas water heaters, household appliances, commercial refrigerators, and walk-in freezers. Backed by Republican lawmakers, the move is framed as a victory for American households and small businesses. Trump stated the repeals will reduce unnecessary burdens, lower energy costs, and return decision-making power to consumers. The orders aim to undo what Trump called last-minute regulations under Biden that hurt everyday Americans and stifled economic freedom in the name of overregulation. #Trump2025 #TrumpOrders #BidenEraRepeal #EnergyRegulations #ApplianceStandards #GasWaterHeaters #FreeMarket #TrumpRepeals #HouseholdAppliances #RegulationRollback #TrumpExecutiveOrder #BidenRulesScrapped #WalkInCoolers #CommercialFreezers #EnergyFreedom #TrumpVsBiden #HomeownerRights #RegulatoryReform #TrumpWhiteHouse #TrumpPolicies Also Read Trump Reacts to Indian Missile Strikes: 'It’s a Shame,' Calls for Swift Resolution :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-reacts-to-indian-missile-strikes-it-s-a-shame-calls-for-swift-resolution-4145511.html?ref=DMDesc Trump and Carney Face Off in Oval Office Over Trade War and Tariffs :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-carney-faceoff-oval-office-trade-war-011-4145443.html?ref=DMDesc What Donald Trump’s 100% Tariff On Foreign Films Could Mean For Indian Entertainment Industry | Explained :: https://www.oneindia.com/business/what-donald-trump-s-100-tariff-on-foreign-films-could-mean-for-indian-entertainment-industry-expl-4144927.html?ref=DMDesc
