Hundreds trying to storm Wisconsin beagle research facility met with rubber bullets, pepper spray About 1,000 animal welfare protesters who tried to gain entry to a beagle breeding and research facility in Wisconsin have been turned back by police who fired rubber bullets and pepper spray into the...

The only dogs we had growing up were beagles & despite putting up with the same abusive, alcoholic asshole I had as a stepfather, they loved him.

In my district, a beagle breeding facility called Ridglan Farms has hundreds of code violations, including serious harm to the health of the dogs, yet the NIH is still giving funding to groups that use the beagles from this facility.

Today, I urged Secretary Kennedy to stop this practice.

Organizer's site: March 15 was first "open rescue" of beagles, "100 people walked into Ridglan Farms, carrying white flowers and displaying peace signs, and walked out with desperate beagles."

IMO: It's the wrong time to send 1,000 people into arms of feds. Many more bad things will come from this.

-Automatic voter registration
-Make "Voting day" a paid holiday
-Abolish the electoral college
-End Citizens United
-Make Congress represent population not States
-Get Unions a seat in Congress
-Votes of no-confidence in elected officials, senators, Mayors

I'm sure there's more

The Hungarian people wisely refused to listen to these grifting scumbags.

Mt. Fuji and cherry blossoms at Arakurayama Sengen Park 🌸🗻 Honestly, one of the most stunning views in Japan. So… will you come see it for yourself next cherry blossom season? 😉

I weep for my country. How can we ever recover. We have to try, though. To let it die after 250 years without realizing its potential is unthinkable.

So much of this could have been prevented if the men in the Epstein files had been prosecuted instead of protected.

Thanks to Artemis II, we now know what's on the dark side of the moon. 😂🤣👇

Release all the Epstein files now!

Regardless of whether it’s all talk, when the leader of our country expresses plainly genocidal intent, everyone has to do something.

For citizens of all political stripes, it means rejecting this madness. For Congress, it means taking action to rein him in. Now.

It’s amazing that the president calls for genocide and everyone is still just going around their day as usual.

FFS. The French shut down their country when their baguettes get a little stale. What the fuck is wrong with Americans?

He should be removed just for suggesting it.

A world leader making a casual statement of genocide is not, nor should it ever be, be allowed to be something normal and acceptable

I think it's bad for the President to threaten to annihilate an entire culture and i do not think you are being alarmist if you take his threats seriously and literally.

Don't blame me for a whole civilization dying tonight.

I voted for Kamala Harris.

“Sakura” in Japan.
Cherry blossoms symbolize the fleeting nature of life, mortality, renewal, and spring in Japanese culture. ☺️

Spotted in NASHVILLE…

Blue jay with bright blue, white and gray feathers in flight with a nut in its beak.

Today was not great weather for flight photos. It was pretty overcast. But I did manage to get this blue jay with a nut.

I like this one.

Good morning to everyone who voted for Kamala Harris.

$50 million worth of solar panels headed for 'highly visible' state lands - Maryland Matters About $50 million worth of solar panels will appear on Maryland Department of Transportation parking lots and brownfields in coming years, paid for with money from a state renewable energy fund that h...

Maryland will install $50 million worth of solar panels over its Department of Transportation parking lots and brownfields this year. marylandmatters.org/2026/03/01/s...

I saw this done in France. Grocery store parking lots were covered in solar panels. Producing electricity and providing shade for cars. It’s a win/win.

Is it happening again?
