A badger in the rainforest at night, captured in this image by Ross Bartley. 7,319 of these amazing, gorgeous native animals were culled by the Irish state last year alone, and 66,000 since 2014, in a pointless, cruel attempt to eliminate bovine TB, despite a promise to switch to vaccinations.

What do these 3 people have in common? They have all been found to have been illegally appointed by the Trump Administration to positions leading U.S. Attorney’s Offices around the country. We need real public servants in these jobs, lawful public servants, who are committed to the rule of law.

Musk is not an expert in anything Musk is given massive US government contracts Musk has contracts with the CIA Musk largest investors Israeli, Russia, Saudi Musk did not create his own wealth Musk somehow bypasses all regulations How did this idiot get so big? 👇

The EU needs to open an Epstein commission to route out malignant influence networks and tackle the European end of the criminal network.

Police Chief Brian O’Hara has delivered a blunt message to his department: If an officer witnesses ICE agents using illegal force and fails to step in, they will be fired. 👏 👏 👏

How to buy yourself a needy malignant narcissist? Just offer him a phony, made up "Peace Prize" & he's all your's!!! No need for a formal ceremony as he'll snatch from the box & put it on all by himself. Both laughably pathetic AND pathetically laughable. 🤡 🫣

⚡️Ukraine will not accept any peace deal requiring territorial concessions, Syrskyi tells UK broadcaster. “There are no pauses, no delays in (Russia's) operations. They keep pushing their troops forward to seize as much of our territory as possible under the cover of negotiations," Syrskyi said.

US federal judge orders release of Epstein grand jury materials

NPR fights Trump's executive order against public media The case isn't getting much attention. But it pits the press's right not to face government retaliation over coverage against the president's assertion of vast executive powers My story: www.npr.org/2025/12/05/g...

The Roberts Court will go down in history as having upheld the desires of Donald Trump and the GOP, rather than its commitment to justice, precedent or the rule of law. Today’s ruling — which substitutes its own fact finding for that of the lower court — is yet another example.

A grand jury has declined to re-indict Letitia James. 👏

Today I’m recommending that NYC’s pension fund boards drop BlackRock and 2 other (out of 49) public markets asset managers due to inadequate decarbonization plans. Climate risk is financial risk – we need asset managers who will invest responsibly.🧵 www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

Climate change threatens our economy and millions of workers' retirement security. NYC pensions can set a powerful precedent: asset managers who fail to confront climate risk should expect to lose clients to those that do better. @sierraclub.org statement ⬇️ www.sierraclub.org/press-releas...

In the latest episode of Ukraine This Week, The Kyiv Independent’s Anna Belokur reports on the leaked U.S. 28-point peace proposal for Ukraine and Russia, which stipulates major concessions from Kyiv.

Kristi Noem and Kash Patel were out last night enjoying the Las Vegas F1 race at taxpayers’ expense. This is exactly the kind of fraud, waste, and abuse that deserves a full investigation.

The petrostates really want you to hate environmentalists. Don’t fall for it.

Donald Trump is out with another unhinged attack on Ukraine as he pressures President Zelensky to accept his “Peace plan,” which amounts to Ukrainian capitulation: “Ukraine leadership has expressed zero gratitude for our efforts.”

We made progress this week in our effort to ban stock-trading by Members of Congress. Representatives shouldn’t be trading stocks — and neither should the Director of the FBI!
