Since 2021, a former dredging site in Cheshire has been transformed into a network of freshwater pools and reedbeds. It's now home to almost two-thirds of the UK's breeding black-necked grebes, one of the UK's rarest breeding birds.
Given a chance, nature bounces back.

For years, Alaska officials prosecuted (& persecuted) a community of American Samoans in the city of Whittier, threatening them with years in prison for the crime of voting.
You may have read about this when we covered it in Bolts earlier this year.
HUGE NEWS: Alaska just dropped all charges.
The thing is, it's not even controversial to say that a Genocide is happening in Palestine. The UN has issued a report confirming this. When the massacre started, it was somewhat controversial but at this point, it's a fact. Opinions are not facts, regardless of what the opinionated would say.
I’m curious…how many of you could be wheeled into your workplace in the condition of Mitch McConnell…and be considered “back to work”?
Most employers would call the coroner.
If you think people are angry now, then just wait until they can only purchase gas and diesel on days determined by the alphanumeric sequence on their license plates.
I'm proud to announce my policy agenda to empower Michigan’s Black communities.
For generations, Black communities in Michigan have received promises of federal investment that never fully arrived, or arrived without any way to track whether it actually improved people's lives.
A data center in New Jersey spilled 5,000 gallons of diesel fuel into a local creek, putting the area’s entire river system at risk.
Is it any wonder nearly 70 percent of Americans don’t want a data center in their community?
From FP:
Washington’s long-standing policy of “strategic ambiguity” over its intervention in any conflict over Taiwan appears to be gradually drifting toward a new posture of weaker support.
🔷It appears that we are heading toward a policy of capitulation!

Rep. Mai Xiong doesn't know the word "can't". As Lansing Republicans tell us what we can't have or don't deserve, she knows we CAN have thriving communities and great quality of life when we elect the right people.
Hint hint: Let's re-elect this energetic advocate for Michigan HD13!

Watching ka$h “testify” before the senate committee and it hit me he might be there to save a record of his incompetence and lack of respect to make mob lawyer jobs easier! By lowering standards, lying on command, and being combative, the FBI will be much easier to discredit in any court anywhere!
Most people have no idea there’s a woman’s name on the Declaration of Independence too.

In 1777, Congress commissioned her to print the first copy naming the signers. She added her own name.
She’s believed to be America’s first female postmaster.

Booker eviscerates Patel: "He's like an 18 year old kid who wants to join a fraternity that he could never be a member of, doing keg stands and chugging with friends. He's an embarrassment. He is a disgrace. This is a mockery and a sham. What's bad are the people enabling him."
The Senate will cast a crucial vote today to advance the CLARITY Act, a massive pro-crypto bill.
Crypto is a giant Ponzi scheme that fuels tax evasion, money laundering, and fraud.
Call your Senator and tell them to vote NO: (202) 224-3121.
Department of Homeland Security employees were instructed to access state voter databases in ways a whistleblower alleges violate state law, according to a new report.

We ALL need to realize that he only supports what benefits him monetarily. Him. Not US. Anything that actually benefits us, the American people, he is totally against. That’s been his plan and policy since the very beginning and some people have not only allowed it, but enabled it.
Louisiana District 4 voters, it's long past time to send Mike Johnson home. He doesn't work for his district- only for his GOP masters.
Conrad Cable is his opponent. @conrad4congress.bsky.social.
Check him out. Elect him.
He's the right choice.

Abu, an 8-month-old monkey, lost his parents. However, be this temporary or not, a cat adopted it and the monkey was seen tightly clinging to the feline's belly. More than one case of this kind have been observed in areas where both species live.

The fact Donald Trump told his supporters Thursday night to “Cheat like hell” in 2026 election BUT that isn’t the headline nationwide shows you again how corporate media is complicit.

Imagine telling an Alaskan paying $26.82 a gallon to tighten the belt as they choose between medicine and food. Mary Peltola demands solutions.
Alaska needs a senator who stops the crisis, not one voting for more war.

Justice should not be for sale.
American juries decide guilt, judges rule on sentences, & now for a large sum of money, the guilty can walk amongst us once again. Trump is making bank while criminals walk.
This is what you get when a felonious con man is President. Vote Blue & vote early.
Kash Patel is about to testify in front of the Senate Judiciary Committee at an oversight hearing. It’d be nice if he took it seriously for a change, but I’m betting it’s going to be the usual mess of attempted sound bites and culture war mockery
