Pufflings can get disoriented when venturing out, flying into the night. Vestmannaeyjar kids search the streets, scoop up pufflings, and release them to the ocean. Town kids have rescued pufflings for generations, helping dazed and confused birds thrive.

Vivian Maier (1926-2009), photographe de rue américaine. Artiste prolifique, elle n’a jamais présenté sa production photographique de son vivant. Sitôt son œuvre rendue publique, elle bénéficie d'une reconnaissance posthume, populaire et critique.

When Texas tried to steal 5 seats, I said to watch the litigation my law firm had filed because we had a good chance of winning in court. Today a federal court BLOCKED THE MAP.

While the legacy media ignored our case, Democracy Docket covered it from gavel to gavel. Subscribe now. hubs.ly/Q03M8rql0

Just a few of the many many steep steps on Huangshan, Yellow Mountain.

A beautiful mountain, but a brutal hike.

About 60,000 steps carved into stone throughout, with some thought to be 1,500 years old.

“by mistake”
ICE abducted Leticia Jacobo and tried to deport her, she is Native American.

Polk County Sheriff’s Office, which held her for ICE, admitted that it was a ‘clerical error’.

Her family fought through layers of bureaucracy to stop her from being disappeared.

I covered Ghislaine Maxwell's trial from her indictment to her conviction - my report minutes after the jury found her guilty is below.

It will be nothing short of a travesty of justice and a tragedy for every girl she victimized if Trump's DOJ cuts a deal with Maxwell to protect the President.

Just when you think they can't get any more slimy, they do shit like this.

Everyone will now have to reapply for SNAP.

Don't think for a second that the USDA is going to be able to process 42 million applications in a timely fashion.

That's the whole point.

Spent decades convincing Donald Trump to run for President.

Pardoned by Trump at the end of 2020, along with Manafort and Kushner.

Old news, I know. But, what went on, and is going on, amazes and horrifies me.
Roger Stone orchestrated the "Brooks Brothers Riot" from a Winnebago parked near the Miami-Dade County vote-counting site.

He recruited Cuban-Americans, claiming Gore was planning a "coup", similar to Castro in Cuba. Helped secure the election for George Bush.

Known as a "ratfucker" for Nixon.

More than 2 million oil and gas wells sit unplugged in the U.S., many leaking contaminants into waterways, farmland and neighborhoods.

Time and time again, oil companies have walked away — leaving taxpayers to pay for cleanup. Here’s how.

(Published Dec. 2024)
The American Oil Industry’s Playbook, Illustrated: How Drillers Offload Costly Cleanup Onto the Public
Oil executive Tom Ragsdale walked away from his old wells, making the pollution left behind the state of New Mexico’s problem. His tactics, however, are ubiquitous in the industry.

We found that a company with deep ties to Kristi Noem secretly got money from DHS contracts.

“It’s corrupt, is the word,” a contract law expert said. “Hiding your friends as subcontractors is like playing hide the salami with the taxpayer.”

Chicago's ICE resistance just showed the world that everyday Americans are good and fearless in fighting for their communities

But our cowardly elites -- especially Senate Democrats -- still don't get it
