Pharma giant Merck, which previously was implicated in injecting Ridlgan beagles with rabies, is STILL buying dogs from Ridglan as recently as 5/18.
30 pups were purchased and sent to a Merck facility in Kansas. This is corporate criminality, and it must be stopped.
A poacher had abandoned a wooden crate in which he had locked a young gorilla. This ranger, who was tracking the poacher, found him and thus learned that animals are often more empathetic than humans
“Marshall Farms is a torture chamber. It is a stain on New York.”
The @USDA estimates 16,000 beagles are held behind this fortress. Many don't know it's in our backyard. They do now. I was proud to join advocates fighting gainst testing on cats and dogs. We won’t stop until it’s banned and this place is shut down
🚨 Florida Police rescued a dog left in a hot car outside a Five Below. The owner was arrested for animal cruelty.
Woman: “How is it cruelty?” 🥴
Officer: “You want to sit in that hot car for as long as that dog was?” 🔥
Florida doesn’t mess around. 👏🏾
@markschlereth There were health concerns about Shedeur Sanders pre-draft. He suffered a fractured back at the end of the 2023 season then he took a wicked shot during the 2024 season.

Blind Item #14
This former permanent A list athlete turned announcer turned coach is already being pressured by his actress/celebrity girlfriend for way more money every month. He is going to feel that squeeze she has applied to lots of men.
Never forget that the Athletic ripped apart Jordon Hudson’s life.
One writer said her relationship gave him “the ick” while another applied for an open records request to publish UNC emails related to Hudson. They repeatedly called her relationship a “saga.”
Meanwhile, when the Athletic has an actual PR nightmare in their own backyard involving Dianna Russini, it’s crickets.
Mike Silver retweeted Dianna Russini’s work 40x from January 1 - April 7 and hasn’t said her name (or Vrabel’s) since! Silver did refer to Russini as “elite mommy,” a “Christmas present” and “timeless” before the scandal broke.
The Athletics’ “lengthy” investigation with no public timetable or promise of transparency is unacceptable. Their silence is unacceptable. The initial reaction to defend Russini’s actions was unacceptable.
The NFL, ESPN, and others have taken a lot of heat in this scandal and the Atheltic hasn’t gotten nearly enough imo.
🚨 Posting, Posing, & Possibly Plotting? This Russini Mother’s Day “Thirst Trap” Raises Questions
This old Dianna Russini video has resurfaced and suddenly people are looking at it very differently after the Mike Vrabel rumors exploded.
Does this feel like a happily married woman enjoying “me time”…
Or does this look more like someone trying to get someone’s attention?
Fair or unfair, once people believe there was emotional overlap happening behind the scenes…
Every old post starts getting reinterpreted through a different lens.
Do you believe it’s an open invitation? A low key Vrabel video or just innocent fun?
