A baby elephant who was separated from his mother and herd in Tamil Nadu, India, has been reunited with them by park officials

When will Kellyanne get one? She's done quite well without ever making a single even far-fetched contribution to the world.

And this is funny to the Fox News host. Half the US laps up and parrots this trash.

Every major health system in Louisiana is warning Speaker Mike Johnson and the rest of the state’s congressional delegation that the Senate GOP’s planned Medicaid cuts “would be historic in their devastation.”

Welcome baby Osprey! Watch live on our Charlo cam! #osprey

Beautiful and inspiring comments, JessicaTG2005. "I'm everyone on the inside." Except the vermin terrorizing and stealing America blind. It won't be pretty, even less so for the perpetrators, and we will end this.

Today's awesome events in Budapest remind me of Keith Olbermann's gripping statement about 2008 Proposition 8 in CA. I'm like Keith, not gay, not sure I know anyone who is, don't care if everyone I know is. More important: My heart beats. Love ya, Budapest. www.youtube.com/watch?v=BRzq...

"We came because they tried to ban it." They came to stick a pole up Trump's hero Orban's bippy. God love ya Budapest. www.theguardian.com/world/2025/j...

I wonder if Mitch McConnell assumed Americans who lost their healthcare would "get over it" because they will be dead.

You can't make this shit up.

"MAGA allows for no breathing room after a tragedy, no space for unity. Instead, Trumpists immediately try to use the corpses to score political points without regard for the facts. Trump is a small, petty man and as a result, the GOP becomes smaller and pettier every day." — @playtyperguy.com

Now this would be LEGENDARY!!😂😂😂

All I see here is top notch ball security, elite contact balance, a willingness to grind out tough yards btwn the tackles, and surprising burst after he finds daylight

1/ If Justice Barrett thinks we need to go back to what the Founding Fathers intended, I’ve got news for her. Their biggest concern was avoiding tyranny. So they created 3 branches of gov’t & divvied up the power the people (that’s us) were allowing the gov’t to use to create order for all of us.

Not that long ago we were utterly shocked to find such conditions when we liberated German concentration camps. Now we're the perpetrators of crimes against humanity.

Just like with his nauseating old man... presidenting is "easy" when you don't actually do it.

#ProudBlue I actually love this idea. I wish we could implement it. We aren’t United anyway, so what does it hurt?

This sentence, typed in her dissent, should scare the living fuck out of everyone in this country. "This Supreme Court is an existential threat to the rule of law." – Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson

A large passel of men armed with automatic rifles to apprehend a purported illegal immigrant (who wasn't that)? Authorities don't even do that if the target was active shooters or someone threatening to kill a family. Gutless overgrown children imagining themselves on a dangerous military mission.

Unthinkable evil.

Oh my God. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

SEN: @ossoff.bsky.social: “WHO’S GETTING FIRED AT THE VA?” COLLINS: 🤷🏼‍♂️

They're investigating themselves. This should come out well. www.theguardian.com/world/2025/j...

This is another monumental defeat for the Constitution, separation of powers, and the rule of law, courtesy of a rogue Supreme Court that consistently fails to uphold any of those fundamental tenets. www.bbc.com/news/article...
