The Red Kite is one of our greatest conservation success stories. They were extinct in 🏴 and 🏴 with only a few individuals left in 🏴. After successful reintroductions, their numbers have exploded! It's great to see these beautiful raptors back! #bird #birdphotography #eastcoastkin #birdoftheday

This is how our government has been corrupted:
1) Donors give huge sums to elect politicians to office
2) Elected officials rewrite rules in the donors' favor
3) Donors make huge profit
4) Repeat
We must get big money out of politics.
It is the root of our dysfunction.

There is a reason why Witkoff did not want any officials with the State Dept or anyone else present during his many meetings w/Putin - he didn’t want witnesses to his treasonous behavior. Highly unusual, but makes perfect sense when you consider that he only cared about Russia.

I know a lot of people believe that gender affirming care (gac), can wait until adulthood.
But, the truth is that many children commit suicide every year because they are forced to live in a body and society that is betraying them.

The emails reveal the special training given to FBI personnel working on what it called the “Epstein Transparency Project.” In some instances they referred to it as the “Special Redaction Project.” The training entailed PowerPoint slide presentations and video instruction on how to review the files.
