Sanders: You have a president who is suing ABC and CBS and the Des Moines register. He is threatening to investigate PBS and NPR. He loves media that fawns on him.. If you cannot take the criticism, get the hell out of politics

The price of eggs in the US is spiking, mostly due to #H5N1 bird flu. Solving the problem requires urgent, important communications from the CDC & FDA* and rapid development of research by the NIH** * Currently paused by Executive Order ** Grant reviews now all canceled www.kcur.org/news/2025-01...

Egg prices are soaring again. Here’s why and what to expect
Bird flu has killed millions of hens in recent weeks, shrinking the supply of eggs and hiking up prices at grocery stores.

One enraging reaction to the LA fires I'm seeing is: All artists are rich/being an artist isn't a real job/they should have planned better/I'll reserve my sympathy for others. If you are doing this kind of sorting, no matter where on the political spectrum you are, please know that you are awful.

You don’t have to feel weird. Just go ahead, ignore it and not donate. It’s literally the easiest thing in the world. It’s not like I texted you & begged you to give me money. Some people have the resources & wanna help & I wanted to provide them places to be able to do that. Feel free to do nothing

These extraordinary photos of the LA fires have been shared widely on social media, often without crediting the photographer. These are all the work of Ethan Swope, an LA-based photojournalist working for AP. You can follow his remarkable reporting here👇 www.instagram.com/ethanswopeph...
A street is orange from flames and you can see the high winds in the palm trees. Sparks fly down the streetA fire truck is engulfed in parks and flames are seen on the hill. The entire photo is red and orange from the fireA fireman with a hose runs across the front of a house in flames in the backgroundThe inside of a house is a ball of flames. The only visible thing inside is a burning Christmas tree
