Today, on my final day as Director of National Intelligence, I’m releasing never-before-seen communications and documents exposing how Dr. Fauci provided millions in US taxpayer dollars to fund dangerous gain-of-function research at the Wuhan lab, worked with politicized elements within the Intelligence Community to suppress the truth about his actions and hide the virus’ lab-leak origins, and lied to Congress while under oath in 2024. It’s time you know the truth.

The eagle lost his mate, but he never lost the need to be a father.
Researchers were confused when a nest camera showed a bald eagle standing beside a great horned owl and her babies. He wasn’t attacking them. He wasn’t stealing from the nest. He was bringing food, standing guard, and helping feed the owl’s chicks as if something in him still needed babies to protect.
The answer came from a nearby trail camera. Days earlier, a bear had climbed into the eagle’s nest and taken his mate. After losing his own family, the eagle somehow found an owl who had also lost help raising hers. Nobody can fully explain it, but people online say it looks like pure instinct mixed with grief. He could not save his own nest, so he helped save hers.
In 1836, a sewer worker discovered an old drainage tunnel that led directly into the gold vault of the Bank of England. Rather than taking advantage of it, he informed the bank’s directors and arranged to meet them inside the vault at a time of their choosing. To their astonishment, he emerged straight up through the floor to greet them.
Eight people were left stranded at the top of a roller coaster in Texas after the ride stalled on a vertical section of track. Firefighters responded and used a long ladder truck to safely reach and rescue them.
Look up . The sky is putting on a show you won't see again until 2028.
A rare Blue Moon is rising on May 30, peaking in the early hours of May 31 at 8:45 UTC.
It's the second full moon of May, and the first time two full moons have shared a single calendar month since August 2023.
But the moon isn't doing this alone.
Venus and Jupiter are lining up low in the western sky just after sunset. Mars and Saturn are climbing in the east before dawn. Mercury joins the western evening lineup too.
Four planets. One Blue Moon. One sky.
Here's the kicker — this isn't just any full moon. It's the smallest full moon of the entire year, sitting roughly 252,360 miles away at its farthest point from Earth.
A micromoon. A Blue Moon. A planet parade. All at once.
The moon will glow right next to Antares, the red heart of Scorpius, on May 30. For the best view of the planetary lineup, step outside 30 to 45 minutes after sunset and look west. Set an alarm before dawn if you want to catch Mars and Saturn rising in the east.
And no, despite the name, the moon won't actually look blue. The name comes from the calendar quirk, not the color.
The next one like this won't happen until December 2028.
Don't blink.
