The pork industry lost with voters. Lost at the Supreme Court. So they turned to Congress—and got the "Save Our Bacon" Act buried in the House Farm Bill. It's the biggest rollback of animal welfare protections in U.S. history. A thread. 🧵

Lindsey Vonn's knee injury puts mere mortals out for months. She was back on skis in days to prepare for her last Olympic medal bid. How did she do it? I talked to a team doc who has treated her to find out. https://t.co/KNiO7ZQW2B

NEWS: The cuts were so severe that at least one department head asked to leave The Post rather than be included in the planning.

Peter Finn, The Post's international editor, requested that he be laid off once he learned about the scope of the cuts to his section.

What a way to end 2025!

On December 31, PC Stubbington from #ArmstrongOPP spotted something truly special while on patrol - a family of five Canada lynx: two adults and three kittens.

Encounters like this are a reminder of how incredible our northern wildlife really is, and how much happens in the forests around us that we rarely get to see. A perfect final highlight for the year.

Here’s to more moments of wonder in 2026!^tw #northwestopp #northernontario

After 157 years, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution has ended its print edition with its final issue published on December 31, 2025.

The shift makes Atlanta the only major U.S. city without a daily printed newspaper.

This is a remarkable statistic: 18.7 million out of the 24.3 million Obamacare enrollees are in states won by President Trump in 2024.
