Today, in a brazen assault on the health and welfare of the American public, the Trump administration announced its rule revoking the Environmental Protection Agency’s longstanding greenhouse gas endangerment finding under the federal Clean Air Act.

RFK Jr/MAHA world say they're not reducing access to vaccines for anyone who wants them, only giving people "choice" to opt out. But by refusing to even review new vaccines, yes, they are absolutely blocking those who want a new immunization from ever having access to it.

Thank you to the Bloomington Police Department and Chief Hodges for their work keeping us safe. The fact that the individual arrested was responsible for conducting background checks on new ICE hires should concern every Minnesotan.

Tina Smith lays it plain.

Two years ago, Bani was paralyzed, alone, and facing grave injuries after a train collision. Now, Bani is full of opinions. From demanding her porridge and negotiating acupuncture sessions with bananas and expert-level photobombing, she’s grown into one of the most loved residents in our care.

ICE is running a “conveyor belt” of illegally detained Minnesota families. Agents are arresting entire families with legal status and immediately shipping them off to Texas to deny them legal representation and avoid the federal courts in Minnesota. The cruelty is endless.

The announcement comes just days after NPR revealed the administration had secretly rewritten safety and environmental standards.

This is not the first time a shocking story of cruelty we've covered has been resolved in favor of the victim. But there are still so many untold stories out there.

This must stop.

"I was just doing my job." Independent journalist Georgia Fort faces federal charges stemming from her reporting on a January 18 demonstration at a St. Paul church, where a senior ICE official works as a pastor.

One shark I really want to see is Cephalurus cephalus. @mbarinews.bsky.social has a cool image of one in this link www.mbari.org/news/biologi...

“As a result of consolidation, corporate has been running skeleton crews at our store for years.” The Lake City Fred Meyer store closure directly impacted Melissa and her community. Listen to her story.

Democrats grow critical of ICE every few years, but once the controversy dies down, "they go away, and nothing changes," says immigration attorney Eric Lee.

"Among the hires at CBS News announced by Weiss is a doctor who claims he reduced his biological age by 20 years with cold plunges; that cod liver oil treats autism; and that Alzheimer’s and dementia can be reversed with supplements he sells on his online store." www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

In the wake of the U.S. withdrawal from WHO, California is the first state to participate in the agency's disease monitoring network. Are others following?

This is the BEST explanation I have seen so far.

The operation in Washington, D.C. alone is projected to cost upwards of $660 million if it runs through the end of this year as expected, according to new data released by the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office. n.pr/45FbxN0

NPR obtains documents showing the Trump administration secretly cut nuclear safety rules to fast-track new reactors. And, investigators blame systemic failures for a deadly midair crash near D.C. n.pr/4pZMM5h

“If I can’t see you, you can’t see me… right?” 👀🌳 Can you spot Kalpana anywhere?

When ICE targets people—including off-duty officers as reported by Brooklyn Park Police Chief Mark Bruley—for no reason other than how they look, it destroys trust, divides communities, and fails to make us safer.

Patty O'Keefe, who was violently arrested while monitoring ICE activity, says one agent told her, "You guys got to stop obstructing us. That's why that lesbian bitch is dead," referring to Renee Good.

Some of Renee Nicole Good’s last words to the ICE agent who killed her: “That’s fine, dude. I’m not mad at you.” The ICE agent’s words immediately after killing Renee Nicole Good: “Fucking bitch.”

Amy Goodman and Denis Moynihan have written a weekly column for nearly two decades. This is their final dispatch, reflecting on the challenges and opportunities in people-centered journalism.

We’ve welcomed a quintet of tiny trunks into the world since the start of December – and little Kiki is one of them. Her mother, Kihari, was rescued as an orphan of poaching in 2011. Now she’s raising the next wild generation. Each wild-born baby is a victory for conservation.

Korbessa never met a guinea fowl she didn't want to chase. A throwback to her neonate days – ears flared, trunk raised, charging with wholehearted determination. May we all carry such enthusiasm into 2026. Happy New Year from all of us at the Sheldrick Wildlife Trust.

Alarm is growing over the treatment and deteriorating health of eight Palestine Action activists jailed in the U.K. who are on hunger strike to protest their detention.

Before rescue, HARI WAS BOUND TIGHTLY FOR DAYS, unable to move his legs. We #rescued Hari just a few months ago, he can now explore, browse for food, and move freely. These remarkable transformations are only possible because of compassionate people like you. Help elephants at give.wildifesos.org

CITES, a global body regulating wildlife trade, met last month to strengthen protections for vulnerable species. The U.S. urged for stronger enforcement, but global progress lags behind. Moving forward, we need bold leadership to safeguard global wildlife and secure their future.

Budget shortfalls and nearly $1 trillion in looming federal Medicaid cuts have prompted states to rein in spending on a widely embraced autism therapy, pinching families who depend on the services. n.pr/496jHPj

Exactly zero veterans think the problem with the VA health care system is that there are *too many* staff providing care. But Trump's VA has now decided it won't fill thousands of open positions. We need answers about what this will mean for veterans.

The Trump administration has renewed efforts to target those providing healthcare to trans youth.

“Lucy did not know where she was, nor did she understand the words being spoken around her… and yet, under the system we have built, she was the one required to answer." I witnessed the kids docket at immigration court. It’s cruel and inhumane beyond belief. www.latimes.com/opinion/stor...

While Trump and his family spend their holidays at Mar-a-Lago, quite literally everything is more expensive for the middle class.

Trump’s reckless tariffs have increased the prices of holiday gifts — costing families an extra $130 on average.   Americans shouldn’t have to pay more to give gifts this holiday season.

We had no days off this year as the Trump administration pushed a dangerous agenda that waged countless attacks on our environment. With the new year around the corner, we have a renewed purpose to keep fighting.
