860,000 miles of rivers and streams in the USA (about 25% of all stream miles in the lower 48 states) exceed the EPA's aquatic-life threshold for atrazine exposure. This is messed up.

The "conservative movement" can be summarized by 1) protecting billionaire pedophiles, 2) putting up Flock cameras everywhere, 3) giving everyone explosive diarrhea, 4) raising gas prices, 5) trafficking families into camps, and 6) making sure kids get detention for silly tiktoks

Charlie Kirk's parents/sister still haven't released any public statements or interviews. Isn't that weird? So a family that raised such an outspoken and opinionated man who's famous for what he's famous for would also organically be the same kind of family that has nothing to say after his murder?

The Trump admin is considering weaker child labor laws for 14- and 15-year-olds, according to the federal regulatory agenda. If the government weakens child labor laws, whose interests will it serve the most? This would lead to more child exploitation and more education interference in the USA.
