Huh. I just found out that my great-grandfather was the reason hog cholera left my hometown alone in the 1940s. He vaccinated thousands of pigs. In this house, we believe in science.

AMAZING—a condor flew into Oregon for the first time in 120 years! The critical conservation efforts I’ve supported are working to protect these amazing, endangered birds. I can’t wait to see more condors soar.

I don't think people realize that every time some politician says that a vote is illegitimate or fraudulent, they're literally slandering the people who vote by telling everyone we cheat to vote. I have NEVER cheated to vote in my entire adult life. Not for ANY politician. Be insulted. It is one.

Screwworms eradicated in the US in 1966. Measles eradicated in the US in 2000. Both are back because of this science denying administration.

‘Never before has such a terror appeared in Britain as we have now suffered from a pagan people... Behold the Church of St Cuthbert splattered with blood of the priests of God, despoiled of all its ornaments.’ The Viking attack on Lindisfarne took place #OTD in 793.

This is Completely Unacceptable! You know what to do New Yorkers….

NYC is the only place I've ever been where someone will confront you about THEIR illegal parking.

Another unfortunate bear encounter. I am glad this guy survived. www.latimes.com/california/s...

Hi Nigel Farage, some point you’re going to have to answer questions about the £5m.

Scientists have spent over 50 years searching for it, and now it's official: Sagittarius A*, the supermassive black hole at the center of our Milky Way, is blowing a powerful, hot cosmic wind into space! 🌌 1/3

You should ask yourself why all of the people who are screeching about election fraud on social media are always unwilling to repeat these claims under oath. Let me help you: it’s because they know they’re full of shit. The entire purpose is to keep people angry.

A large, fluffy ginger cat has come to visit some builders on a site. One of the builders is stroking her - her eyes closed in bliss. Builder: I know we need to crack on. But this is a lovely cat.

Rick Jackson, a Republican gubernatorial candidate in Georgia, appears to believe women should have to prove they were raped before being eligible for an abortion exception under the state’s six-week ban, according to leaked audio reviewed by HuffPost. 🤡🤬 www.huffpost.com/entry/leaked...

This is really interesting research, and perhaps evidence of MLK's idea, "The arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends toward justice." theconversation.com/how-business...

There's some guys in this office taking the piss out of their colleague for "being a housewife" because he spent the weekend looking after his kids and cooking. Heterosexuality sounds exhausting.

The real story with Trump's 250 gala fiasco is his/MAGA's growing toxicity in the culture. Trump had a chance in Nov 2024 to win the culture. But he and MAGA pissed it away because they wanted race war instead. On the pod, @alexshephard.bsky.social is great on this: newrepublic.com/article/2114...

"[P]rosecutors dropping these charges sends a clear signal to the many thousands of LGBT people and their allies that they can attend Hungary’s upcoming Pride events with joy, and without fear of arrest, fines, or imprisonment on spurious grounds." www.hrw.org/news/2026/06...

Last night they tested the UFC stage lighting at the White House. Check it out. The People’s House is looking more like a Six Flags amusement park after dark. It’s embarrassing.

We share our extraordinary 🌎 with camouflaged green stonefish, able to yawn Amazing, isn't it? #WarOnNature #Metacrisis

Of all the responses to the tragedy from political leaders, Farage's was the most unpopular amongst voters.

"I'm only doing this for one term. I am not a politician. I did not ever want to be a politician. I'm doing this because we need to do something now. We can't survive 32 more months of what we've seen for the past 16, full stop."

Local communities are starting to vote against data centers. The more they know, the less they support them. This is an issue that can motivate rural voters. They want to protect their land, electricity, and water.

It’s telling that we live in a world where a musician is onstage saying that he thinks that governments murdering civilians is bad and is called heroic for doing so. Having said that and considering he’s one of the only artists who’s done so, Dave Matthews is a hero. Just a straight up decent human.

ProPublica analyzed the genetic code of America’s measles outbreaks and here’s what we found: The measles virus still spreading in Utah as of this May is very closely related to the one that sickened Texans over a year ago. @natlash.bsky.social @sheinvestigates.bsky.social

The truth will always out.

💥 Russia: Arsenal Military Plant exploded in St. Petersburg, right across the Neva river from downtown. Factory established 300 years ago as a cannon foundry to supply artillery for the Russian Empire. Now produces naval artillery, launchers, and satellite components.

In my entire life I have never seen a world cup with less fan interest and media hype

Lesley Groff worked closely with Jeffrey Epstein for more than 18 years. She appears tomorrow for her transcribed interview, but will she tell what she really knows? I detail how tight they were & why her claims that she had no idea what was going on aren’t credible. youtu.be/KDik9lh4g6E?...

BREAKING: A New World Screwworm (NWS) has been found in a West Texas dog. This is more than just about cattle. It's about all of us: our livestock, our pets, our health. We need to do everything possible to fight the NWS. We're fighting the Screwworm with one arm tied behind our backs.

apparently the Mexican government has backed a new super cheap EV van, 100 percent made in Mexico, that looks sick as hell www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

Year three, after starting to grow his own grapes. 😃 TT: @itsrootquencher Pasadena, California

"Something remarkable happened in April. For the first time in history, wind and solar generated more electricity than gas across the entire planet. Not in a country. Not in a region. Globally." Tons of great news here from Danny Kennedy (via @billmckibben.bsky.social's newsletter, which rules).

Two-tier policing does indeed exist, my brother, but in a racial profiling and rozzers looking the other way at Boris Johnson getting liquored up at Downing Street during lockdown kind of way, and definitely not how you mean it.

This is the President of the United States who can’t handle the truth without throwing a fit and storming off. He reeks of weakness.

NEW: In April 2025, a school bus driver dropped off 5-year-old Lens Joseph, then ran over the kindergartner as he crossed in front of the bus. But his death — and dozens of others — are missing from the federal crash record of the bus company. w/ @wbur.org

FIFA President Infantino gave Mexican President Sheinbaum ticket number 00001 to the World Cup opening match. Sheinbaum gave it to Yolett Cuaquehua, a 21-year-old Indigenous woman from Veracruz. Sheinbaum will watch the game in the Zocalo, the public central square in Mexico City, with the people.

And of the 3 below him, 1 had long term illness and another was one of Fartrages fellow UKIP MP's. He also attended 1 out of 42 fisheries meetings. He's a lazy c***.

Want some good news? Just found out the SAVE act died again in the Senate. It was close, but your pushbacks and your calling and your rage worked. They wouldn't be working overtime to silence all of us if it didn't matter. Keep fighting, keep resisting. 💪

If there was any doubt before, there can be none after this week: The Supreme Court is going to give states free rein to discriminate against minority voters — even in some of the most egregious cases. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

God, #bbclaurak is going to be a tough watch with fkng Rees-Mogg, the Victorian haunted pencil. Him, Michael Gove & Boris Johnson give me PTSD. Can't believe Sunderland voted the tories (Reform) into our local council. #FvckFarage

Wall Street traders can make millions on the fluctuating price of oil, based on nothing more than Trump quotes. Even the BBC's highly diplomatic, Washington news correspondent noted wryly that Trump often seems to send out a rosy statement ref Middle East, peace prospects, on a Friday afternoon.

I remember when Michelle Obama was criticised for wearing a sleeveless dress, saying her attire was inappropriate for a First Lady.

"A petition calling for legally binding MP attendance rules has passed 10,000 signatures There is no legal minimum requirement for an MP to attend Parliament or hold constituency surgeries. Farage missed 77 consecutive votes while earning almost £100,000 annually" (Petition link in comments)

Stop calling employer healthcare a benefit. If you can’t quit without losing your doctor, it’s a leash.
