BREAKING: We just sued the DOJ for failing to respond to our records request about FTCA claims filed by people pardoned or commuted by Trump, including Jan. 6 defendants.

The public deserves to know how these claims are handled—and whether taxpayers are compensating Jan. 6ers.

Colony of Leopard Lacewing caterpillars (Cethosia cyane) feeding on a passionflower vine. Watch how they freeze the moment I tap the stem.. This is so predators focus on the warning colours instead of movement.

Classic aposematism, backed up by toxins the caterpillars pull from the host plant.

When Pete Hegseth polled top commanders about cutting a program designed to protect civilians during military operations, he bet they’d back his view that the program was “woke” and out of step with “maximum lethality,” officials told ProPublica.
