The world's largest nature reserve for penguins was created unintentionally.
The Falkland Islands were heavily land-mined in the Falklands War, making the beaches off-limits to humans and large predators. But penguins are not heavy enough to trigger the land mines, so the beaches became a safe haven for thousands of them.

Y’all. Lots of people are reporting that the Coast Guard swastika news (https://mas.to/@markwyner/115583795290081702) was fake.

It’s interesting that so many people are quick to believe a lying nazi who was given a nod by the U.S. dictator.

Receipts are attached. These screenshots are from the actual policy published BY the Coast Guard ON THEIR WEBSITE.

Nah. This actually happened. WaPo sucks, but this guy sucks more.

Screenshot of the policy with some highlights. The first is a section title that includes the words “potentially divisive.” The second are part of the description that includes “noose” and “swastika.”

The #Trump #DOJ has placed 2 federal prosecutors in Washington on leave a day after they filed a document in court that referred to the #Jan6, 2021, attack on the #US Capitol as a “riot” carried out by a “mob,” 2 people familiar with the matter said.

Imagine if they’d called it what it actually was, an #insurrection carried out by #insurgents.

Since then, the #DOJ has dismissed or reassigned several of the prosecutors who led cases against those accused in the #insurrection, particularly in the #USattorney’s office for #DC, where Valdivia & White work.
Prosecutors charged Taranto, a 39-yo married father of 2, in 2023 with misdemeanors stemming from his role in the #Jan6 attack.

In court filings, they said Taranto had entered the building with the crowd of #Trump supporters & later tussled with MPD officers who were trying to repel the crowds. Once forced outside, court documents allege, Taranto also fought with other #insurrection participants on the Capitol steps, using his cane to fend them off.

Although Valdivia & White were the primary signatories to the sentencing memo in Taranto’s case, the document also bore the name of #USAttorney #JeaninePirro, who was nominated for the role by #Trump.

The suspensions follow efforts by Trump & allies to rewrite the narrative of the #Jan6. Trump, in one of his first EOs after his return to the White House in January, pardoned hundreds of people who had been convicted of participating in the #insurrection….

Assistant #US #attorneys Carlos Valdivia & Samuel White were told they were being suspended just hours after they filed a sentencing recommendation in a case against Taylor Taranto, a Washington state man accused of participating in the #Jan6 #insurrection who is now facing sentencing for unrelated #weapons charges, acc/to people familiar with the matter, who spoke on the condition of anonymity for fear of #retribution.
