🌿🌱A study done on chickadees showed that, in areas with less than 70% native plants, they were not able to raise enough young to sustain the population.
Remember that trees support the largest numbers of caterpillars, which are used to feed baby #birds! Many yards have non-native trees.

The 2025 State of the Birds Report finds birds from almost all habitats continue to decline. The declines are staggering. It’s time to act to bring birds back. Action to help: spread the word! #BringBirdsBack #BirdersUnite #BirdWatching #ProtectBirds

JD Vance is so staggeringly unqualified to be in this position. Just an absolute embarrassment. We are witnessing peak "I'm a white guy who read stuff on the internet so now I'm an expert on all things." Unreal.
ZELENSKYY: Putin broke the ceasefire. What kind of diplomacy, JD, are you speaking about?
VANCE: I think it's disrespectful to come into the Oval Office and try to litigate this in front of the American media

I didn’t hear anyone in Trump Cult complain about President Musk not wearing a suit. Trump even let Elon’s kid tell him he wasn’t a real President to his face in the Oval Office.

Musk’s team—Christopher Young, Nikhil Rajpal, and Gavin Kliger—is currently at the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB). This move comes just months after Musk posted “Delete CFPB” on his X social media platform.

Folks, give Alt National Park Service a follow here…they have way more followers on Facebook, and things are a bit shaky there.
Members of Elon Musk’s secretive team, tasked with reviewing federal agencies for potential cuts, are refusing to reveal their full names to civil servants. Musk’s representatives declined to provide their surnames and refused to answer any questions.

Not too long ago, Elon was doxing government employees on X. Where was the outcry of “You’re breaking the law” then? These employees feared for their families’ safety.
