A guy named Plumes goes to national parks, zoos etc and sings to animals as he plays his guitar.
The wolf here is called Dirvus, and he's the last remaining of his pack. The keepers said he had been very lonely and withdrawn and hasn't howled in a long time. Until now 🥹🥰

“You said the 2020 election was rigged by either Venezuela or China. When you called that fella in Georgia pleading for 11,780 votes, was that part of the rigging, or part of the 6-year investigation? Just one more thing, sir, who was president while all this rigging took place?”
Putin
Last night Donald Trump released a declassified document that says his own intelligence community identified Putin as personally running an operation to defeat my father in 2020, built around a fake Burisma corruption scandal centered around me and executed through prominent Americans.
Trump tasked his personal lawyer, Rudy Giuliani, to fly to Kyiv and meet a known Russian agent.
The Americans who ran, laundered, and legitimized the operation:
Donald Trump. Rudy Giuliani. John Solomon. Joe DiGenova. Victoria Toensing. Lev Parnas. Igor Fruman. Chanel Rion. Sean Hannity. Steve Bannon. Miranda Devine. Ken Vogel. Ron Johnson. Chuck Grassley. James Comer. Jim Jordan.
To name a few.
An operation formally sanctioned by Trump's own Treasury Department on September 10, 2020, and expanded to include more named actors on January 11, 2021.
Oh, and don't forget the Russian-linked FBI informant Alexander Smirnov, who later pleaded guilty to making the entire Burisma bribery story up.
The record exists and we have all the receipts, and more.
Trump has blamed vandals, but a WaPo analysis finds that the peeling tracks closely with stages of the renovation process.
The lining peeled in at least seven places along seams created when the material was applied in large rectangular sections, indicating likely problems with installation.

Сьогодні 250 років одній з найбільш яскравих, сильних і впливових людських мрій – американській мрії про свою власну незалежну, вільну, багату країну, яка захищає свободу людей, віру і прагнення до щастя.
Ця мрія пройшла через багато випробувань та не просто вистояла, а протягом уже двох з половиною століть є прикладом для інших народів і допомогла вистояти та стати вільнішим усьому людству. Особливо це мало значення у 20 столітті, коли Америка допомогла вберегти світ від влади тиранів та сформувала альянси і партнерства, які вперше дали значній частині людства тривалі мир та можливість вільного розвитку.
Зараз, у 21 столітті, вплив і значення Америки точно не менші. І особливо ми це бачимо в Україні, яка бореться за свою незалежність, свободу і право на щастя для наших людей фактично з тими ж надіями, з тим же сенсом, з тією ж енергією, з якими американці вибороли і захистили свою незалежність.
Ми дуже цінуємо підтримку Сполучених Штатів, і особливо зараз, у час повномасштабної війни Росії проти України. Американська зброя, від «джавелінів», які Президент Трамп вирішив передати Україні, до «петріотів», які найбільш надійно бережуть життя наших людей, – усе те, чим Сполучені Штати допомогли нам у захисті нашої країни, доводить силу американського духу, американської рішучості, американських технологій.
І ми дуже добре знаємо ціну всім цим словам. Коли ми звертаємось до Америки по «петріоти», ми віримо, що цінності поваги до життя і людей, які 250 років тому спрацювали, спрацюють і зараз. Світ потребує такого лідерства, яке гарантує свободі й життю захист.
Я бажаю Америці щасливого 4 липня, Президенту Америки і всім американцям – тільки успіхів, а нам усім у світі, хто Америку цінує, – плідної співпраці. «Ми вважаємо за самоочевидні істини, що всі люди створені рівними; що Творець наділив їх певними невідʼємними правами, серед яких є життя, свобода і прагнення до щастя» – ось що всіх нас обʼєднує, усіх, хто Америку поважає і сьогодні Америці дякує.
Хай мрії вільних людей завжди перемагають зло і ненависть від тих, хто хотів би знищити свободу. Америко, дякую! Впевнений: якщо разом, то точно досягнемо миру! Вітаю з твоїм днем!
Two hundred and fifty years ago, a group of Americans signed their names to a piece of parchment and made a promise no nation had ever made before: that we're all created equal, endowed by our Creator with unalienable rights — life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
We're the only nation in history built not on ethnicity, or blood, or geography but on an idea. That's always been what makes us exceptional. We chose that path 250 years ago but that’s where the work began, not where it ended. Every generation has had to choose it again. At Valley Forge, at Gettysburg, on the beaches of Normandy, in the streets of Selma. Americans recommitted themselves to the principles on which our nation was founded.
Now it's our turn.
There's nothing guaranteed about our democracy. We have to fight for it, defend it, and earn it. Over and over, year after year. That's not a burden. That's what it means to be an American.
250 years in, we still haven't fully lived up to those words in the Declaration. But we've never walked away from them, and this July 4, I hope all of us can commit to one thing: that we never will. I don't believe we're as divided as we're told we are. I've bet my whole life on the American people, and I'm not stopping now.
Happy 250th birthday, America. Our story isn't finished. Let's keep writing it together.
Rangers discovered a one-year-old hippo, whom they have named Owen, alone and dehydrated near Kenya's Indian Ocean coast after he became separated from his herd in 2004.
They took him to a wildlife sanctuary in Mombasa, where he soon found a male tortoise with the same dark grey coloring as adult hippos.
The tortoise initially hissed at Owen, warning him to stay away, but according to park officials the pair have since become inseparable.
The Aldabran tortoise, called Mzee, or "Old Man" in Swahili, now eats and sleeps beside Owen. Rangers say they could not have placed Owen with another herd of hippos as he would have been killed by an adult male.
The park's tourism manager, Pauline Kimoto, told reporters: "Since Owen arrived on 27 December, the tortoise behaves like a mother to him. The hippo follows the tortoise around and licks his face."

"Hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars are now unaccounted for."
Breathtaking corruption.
The President has turned America's 250th anniversary into a full blown criminal enterprise and conspiracy against the taxpayers.
Watch and share.
The Ultimate Irony Elon Musk Never Saw Coming
Remember when Elon Musk spent $44 billion to buy Twitter, rebranded it to X, fired everyone who knew how to run it, and turned it into a right-wing echo chamber so he could help Trump win?
Yeah. About that.
Because out of the shadows comes Dark Brandon Junior — and he's running laps around the entire MAGA ecosystem.
Hunter Biden (@HunterBiden) marked 7 years clean and sober on June 1. Instead of hiding, he posted a video thanking his recovery community. Then the trolls came for him. And instead of clapping back with anger, he disarmed them with something MAGA doesn't know how to fight: self-deprecating wit, radical honesty, and zero fs given.*
When someone accused him of leaving that White House coke behind, Hunter replied: "It most definitely was not. I would never have forgotten my drugs."
When someone photoshopped a pipe in his mouth, he corrected them: "A crack pipe doesn't have that little bowl at the end. This is why we can't trust AI."
When a user said they'd vote for him if he made a crack joke campaign ad, Hunter fired back: "How about 'Let's take another crack with a Biden.' Needs work but the possibilities are endless."
The result? Even his former MAGA tormentors are apologizing. One user called him "the MAGA whisperer." Hunter's reply summed up the whole damn problem: "Left, right, D or R, we all want the same things. We're being divided on purpose by the Epstein Elite Oligarch class because as long as we're at each other's throats, they get fat and rich off of our misery."
Meanwhile, I posted a side-by-side: Don Jr. looking like he just crawled out of a three-day bender vs. a clean, sober, sharp-witted Hunter Biden. Asked a simple question: Which first son's family would you trust with American democracy?
You know what's beautiful? Elon Musk spent billions to control the narrative. And now Hunter Biden — the man they spent years trying to destroy — is using X to unite Democrats who felt voiceless, shame trolls with humor, and remind everyone what actual redemption looks like.
So here's my message to every Democrat clutching their pearls about "messaging" and "optics":
Stop. Just stop.
Hunter Biden is out here doing more for Democratic morale than half the party's consultants. He's not running for anything. He's not farming for clicks. He's just speaking like the Americans his father and our parents raised — honest, unafraid, and unwilling to let bullies define him.
Meanwhile, the other side nominated a convicted felon and adjudicated rapist and didn't blink. They don't do purity tests. They do power.
So let's be clear: Laugh at the memes. Share the posts. Tag @HunterBiden every chance you get. Because every time you do, you remind people that redemption is real, that sobriety is worth celebrating, and that the party of "family values" spent years attacking a man for his addiction while their own golden boy Don Jr. can't even keep his eyes open in public photos.
Elon Musk, thank you. Without you, we wouldn't have Hunter Biden lighting up your own platform with truth, humor, and the kind of unscripted humanity MAGA can never fake.

Fascism does not arrive saying “I am fascism.” It arrives saying “law and order,” “border security,” “anti-woke,” “election integrity,” and “national emergency.”
