Pangolins are extremely vulnerable to stress—despite the very best veterinary care, this little fella didn't make it.
Now criminal gangs are luring Chinese tourists to exploit pangolins even more.
Tempted by cheap deals to Laos—e.g under $15 for a 4 night trip—they are then lied to and pressurized to buy illegal pangolin scales, bear bile, rhino horn and tiger products.
A disturbing report in 🧵
This is the everyday experience of life in a #zoo for #elephants. Bobbing, swaying, pacing in minuscule enclosures—for their entire lives. It is psychological cruelty that is often unrecognized.

The only active criminal investigation into Jeffrey Epstein says SDNY just informed them it will not cooperate. New Mexico has spent five months trying to get the unredacted records it says it needs to identify survivors, witnesses, and possible co-conspirators. This should be a massive story.
Evidence has mounted that the supposed “gash” in the Reflecting Pool is...
...tire tracks Trump caused by insisting his many-ton presidential convoy drive on the pool’s fragile surface.
Why? He was too lazy to walk.
Per his own edict, he must now do 10 years in federal prison.
I want every Democrat on the judiciary committee to ask Todd Blanche why he moved convicted child sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell to a bougie minimum security prison camp, where they gave her a fucking puppy.
Every single senator needs to demand and answer to this question.
DO NOT BE DISTRACTED, AMERICA
TRUMP & EPSTEIN ARE CHILD SEX TRAFFICKERS
This fact is why MAGA's Pedophile Protection Program is hiding 2.5M incriminating pages of The Damning Epstein Files.
Are you OK with this cover-up?
So the rapist who raped Ivana & 13yo Katie Johnson & E. Jean Carroll & lusts over Ivanka - is raping the country by selling off nearly 3 million acres of scared public lands in Utah to the highest mining & drilling bidders.
Trump Factoid:
When Trump was roughly five or six years old, a next-door neighbor named Dennis Burnham was left briefly by his mother in a playpen in their garden.
His mother returned a few minutes later to find young Donald Trump standing at the fence, pelting rocks over it at the toddler.
This story is frequently cited alongside other well-known anecdotes of his unruly childhood behavior—such as getting frequent detentions and boasting that he punched his second-grade music teacher—which eventually led his father to send him away to a military academy at age 13 to learn discipline…
There's no escaping it, under the pedophile president, the MAGA Republican Party has become synonymous with pedophilia. James Benjamin "Skip" Gosnell Jr., is the latest conservative to be charged with multiple felonies.
🚨 Republican coach Michael Peacock exploited over 100 children, blackmailing them to produce pornographic images of themselves.
The Christian school he worked at attempted to cover up this heinous crime.
He was just sentenced to 40 years in prison.
The NhRP filed our opening appeal brief on behalf of Angeline, Savanna, Tasha, Victoria, & Zuri—five elephants held captive by the #PittsburghZoo—asking the court to recognize our clients fundamental right to liberty. Take action to support their freedom:https://t.co/pbIs8nQw9K
Help Find This Scumbag!
This man brutally and repeatedly smashed a Seagull against the wall of the Harbour View Cafe in Truro because it tried to steal some food. He then stuffed the Seagull through the fence onto the road where if floundered with two broken wings.
This was in front of numerous people and children who were hugely upset.
🚨BREAKING: “Man of God” arrested on 90 counts of child molestation — after decades of posing as a defender of “biblical values” on Facebook.
David Mercer, 72, spent years online lecturing his 1.8K Facebook friends about “guarding the hearts and minds” of children, blasting secular schools, and warning that pastors are persecuted and betrayed (of course 🙄). He was, until his arrest, still working as a youth pastor in Folsom, Louisiana.
Now Bossier Parish Sheriff’s deputies say Mercer m*lested at least 4 children between 1989 and 1995, while he was youth minister at Cypress Baptist Church of Benton — a position he resigned from in 1995. He was arrested July 10 without incident and booked into the Bossier Parish Maximum Security Facility on 90 counts of forcible fondling m*lestation of a juvenile.
His bond is set at $2.5 million.
Sheriff Julian Whittington didn’t mince words: “Although nearly 40 years have passed, the passage of time does not lessen the seriousness of these crimes or the impact they have had on those affected.” He’s urging any additional victims or witnesses to come forward — investigators expect more charges and more victims.
Let that sink in: this man spent decades after leaving that church continuing to work with kids, all while posting about “protecting” children from secular culture, ranting about a Disney cartoon “normalizing paganism,” and sharing memes insisting the Bible should matter more to people than their phones.
This is the same script we’ve seen over and over — the loudest self-appointed guardians of “family values” are too often hiding the ugliest secrets. Meanwhile actual survivors waited nearly 40 years for justice to even begin.
I couldn't understand why the FBI was investigating Lindsey Graham's death—in the absence of any suspicious toxicology report in the autopsy—until I realized it gave Trump and his lawyer Kash Patel an excuse to enter Graham's house and remove potentially incriminating documents
It's the 250th year of the United States of America, and "We The People" have been betrayed. All who could have stopped the Trump Treason Train failed. 10 years, and no one has put on the brakes. The corrupted GOP have been fully complicit, and Democrats haven't had the courage to derail it. Trump should have been arrested and detained, without bail, as soon as President Biden was inaugurated, or shortly thereafter. No excuses. Jack Smith has presented the evidence that Trump very clearly directed and funded the J6th insurrection. He was also responsible for the Elector's Scheme, and stealing boxes upon boxes of Classified and Top Secret documents. Had any one of us done the same, we would be in prison for life. Everyone blames Merrick Garland and the DOJ, but Joe Biden was the President. He had the power and responsibility to make it happen. Then, everyone who allowed Trump to remain free as he was facing numerous felony convictions is also at fault. He is/was a definite risk to our national security. Allowing him to run for office again, after being convicted of 34 felonies, is inexcusable. Biden and Harris warned America, over and over again, about how horrific life would be if Trump were allowed a second term. Yet, even though the 2024 election results were highly questionable, they quickly conceded. Russia had sent bomb threats to over 67 election offices in the blue districts of Swing States, clearing them out, and at least 15 million votes hadn't been counted. Trump kept telling his supporters, in 2024, that he "didn't need votes." Musk said he'd "go to prison" if Trump lost, and knew the results 4 hours early. His 4 year old son said that Trump wasn't really the President, and that "no one will know." Several Starlink satellites, owned by Musk and used in the Swing States to tabulate votes, exploded within days after the election. The CIA apparently conducted an election audit in December of 2024, and Biden then issued sanctions against Russia and Iran for "election meddling." Whistleblowers say the audit revealed that the election was rigged, and that Harris won. Yet, Harris didn't contest it, and proceeded to certify. This is despite the fact that Section 3 of the 14th Amendment prohibits insurrectionists from holding public office. 2/3 of Congress would have had to remove that restriction to allow Trump back in the White House, but that never happened. Essentially, his "Presidency" is completely illegitimate. Null and void. On 01/19/25, during his "victory speech," Trump openly admitted, or even bragged, that Musk rigged the election for him. He has done that, on camera, several times since. Musk has also essentially admitted it, and more and more evidence keeps coming out to support that. His ex-girlfriend, Ashley St. Clair, revealed text messages from him that say he used "space lasers" to change the outcome. The state of Georgia has even found that Musk committed election fraud by pre-filling ballots. Yet, none of our Democratic lawmakers have said anything about it, or conducted an investigation. And, even though Trump and his administration have completely shredded the Constitution and broken every law imaginable during their second term, no one has even proposed the option of removing them all under Article II, Section 4, for treason, bribery, and other high crimes and misdemeanors. Now, Trump and the GOP are openly plotting to rig or cancel the Midterm elections. Yet, nothing is being done to either remove them from power, or stop the steal. I'm heartbroken that no one seems to care enough about their country to go out on a limb. Yes, their lives would be endangered, but the same is true regarding their efforts to expose Trump's involvement in the Epstein Files, and his blatant, daily instances of corruption. Why is this so different? If the Midterms are rigged for the GOP, America is completely fucked. Would we engage in revolution? I just don't know.
"Vegans are individualistic and have no real politics."
No. We are political animals in solidarity with our friends. We are here make sure you hear them, and you hear us. We Are One Billion Screams.
Watching, Jonathan Swan and Katy Tur. They were talking about how in the Files Donald Trump has a fetish for nipples and now you make some red and raw and the discussion in the situation room with that should be made Public or not, and Suzie Wiles was the only one who said no, what is wrong with these people seriously the man is a pedophile he tortures people he tortures us for 10 years.
He waved at 13 year-old girl I filmed a Survivor reading the passage from it. “He hit her when she bit his penis.”
Why is the Press normalizing this?
In case you forgot, we live on a planet where lightning turns sand into glass, trees communicate, dolphins give each other names, octopuses dream, bees dance to find their way, and forests bloom again after fire. A world that’s quietly, impossibly beautiful.
