Here is an otter snoot to start your day.

THIS IS TERRIFYING‼️

Dr. Peter Marks, former head of vaccines at the FDA, just had his last day—forced to resign or be fired because he wouldn’t lie about vaccines.

He gives a chilling warning: the U.S. is unprepared for biowarfare—because the response team has been gutted.

Dear Lithuania: Thank you for showing our fallen soldiers such honor and dedication while finding and recovering their bodies to be brought home. Meanwhile our "president" can't be bothered to attend their transfer at Dover AFB. He'll be attending a very important golf dinner instead.

Julian Bashir and Benjamin Sisko are walking through a sanctuary district, which is like a homeless encampment. Benjamin says by the early 2020s there was a place like this in every major city in the United States. Julian asks how did it end? Benjamin says a 10% tariff on Islands inhabited only by penguins. Julian says you're joking. Benjamin says perhaps.

Sen. Peter Squelch (Black Faced Shealthbill party) addressing congress today. He is attempting to champion a resolution to sell penguin eggs in return for tariff renegotiation. So far, he’s received cold shoulders and some Senators who’ve even flipped the bird, in a typically polite Ice House.

I'm just glad we finally put a tax on those damn penguins and their crazy trade policies.

As we in the South sometimes like to say -

He done fucked it good.

Get your cattle off our public lands.
If you want to run cattle, do it on your own dirt.
Take some responsibility and fence it adequately.
Stop blaming your failed business model on our wildlife.

Rewild our public lands.
With liberty and justice for all.

Someone must fight back against all these illegal power/money grabs. This stuff is beyond appalling and makes me so sad for our country, all those behind harmed.
