Hornless rhino roamed Canadian High Arctic 23 million years ago About 23 million years ago, a species of rhinoceros - similar in size to the modern Indian rhino but lacking a horn - made its home in the challenging environment of the Canadian High Arctic, which at the time was warmer than it is now but still experienced snow and months of wintertime darkness.

Rule of Law Alert: Trumpโ€™s authority for country-specific tariffs comes from the International Emergency Economic Powers Act, which doesnโ€™t mention tariffsโ€”but does require a national emergency.

An ad showing that Reagan opposed tariffs surely is not a national emergency. (It may be a personal one)

CNN: โ€œTrump's Argentina beef deal angers America's struggling farmers: โ€˜You're selling us outโ€™โ€

Trump is sending ARGENTINA $20B and increasing their beef imports while STARVING AMERICAN FAMIILIES.

There's funding available to help keep food benefits, but Trump just doesnโ€™t want to provide it.

What'll it take for him to start leading the country he actually lives in?

Trump-inspired violence from January 6 rioters makes a return | Opinion Christopher Moynihanโ€™s arrest after threats to Democratic leader Hakeem Jeffries is a predictable result of Trumpโ€™s Inauguration Day pardons.

On his first day in office, Trump pardoned hundreds of violent felons who attacked police officers and the US Capitol building on Jan. 6, 2021. More than 30 of them are already back in trouble with the lawโ€”including one arrested last weekend for making chilling death threats against Hakeem Jeffries.

โ€œDonโ€™t be fooled by those in Epsteinโ€™s circle who say they didnโ€™t know what he was doing. Epsteinโ€ฆtook a certain glee in making people watch. And people did watch โ€“ scientists, fundraisers from the Ivy League and other heralded institutions, titans of industry. They watched and they didnโ€™t care.โ€
