Major news outlets are standing together and refusing to sign. ABC News, CBS News, CNN, Fox News, and NBC News have all rejected a new Pentagon policy that would impose unprecedented restrictions on news gathering.

For #RockinTuesday the beautiful Yellow canyon walls of the Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone

The mineral rich hot water alter the colors of these rocks
#Yellowstone #artyear #wilderness #nayionalparks

The photograph captures a breathtaking view of a deep, rugged canyon carved by a winding river. The steep walls of the canyon are streaked with layers of gold, cream, rust, and pale gray — colors that shimmer in the sunlight and give the rock face a painterly, almost fiery look. The river far below rushes through the narrow gorge, its surface alternating between foamy white rapids and deep green pools as it snakes through the chasm.

On the left foreground, the branches of a pine tree frame the view, their needles tipped with reddish buds, adding a touch of vibrant life against the rocky grandeur. Beyond the canyon rim, the land rises into dense forests of evergreen stretching toward the hazy horizon. The scene radiates both vastness and intimacy — the immensity of geological time revealed through stone, and the quiet pulse of the river still shaping it, day by day.

Q: We've seen images out of Chicago of federal agents shooting faith leaders with pepper balls and arresting journalists. Where's the limit for you on what's acceptable conduct by federal agents?

MIKE JOHNSON: I've not seen them cross the line yet.

Vaccines are safe and effective.

Autism isn't caused by vaccines, and autistic people and their families deserve our support.

When you want information, ask your doctor.

It's more important than ever for all of us to speak plainly, truthfully, and directly about public health.

This is a black and white infrared photograph of a small river rapids in North Vancouver BC. The stones in the water appear quite gray while the trees in the distance render as white.

NEW: There’s a disaster unfolding in Alaska right now. And no major network is covering it.

The remnants of Typhoon Halong battered western Alaska overnight. Homes, with people in them, have literally been swept into the Bering Strait.

At least 20 are missing. No comment from any federal agency.

Things to do in the future:

1. Putting them all on trial for crimes against humanity at the Hague

2. Totally reforming entire government to root out corruption and abuse of power so this bullshit never happens again

3. At some point you’d imagine, brunch

Federal Secret Police and plainclothes ICE agents kidnap multiple people from a neighborhood in Chicago. They then deploy teargas and brutally beat neighbors who come out to express their concern.
