Ludvig “loves to sit on the veranda watching everyone walk by.”

So, his human did something clever – she created a peephole in the fence so he doesn’t have to peek under or over the railing.

Now, he can enjoy the view in comfort.

Sweet dreams everyone 😴

BREAKING: Some of the Darknet’s deadliest dealers just got caught.

On the darknet, drug dealers aren’t lurking in alleyways—they're behind polished websites, pushing fentanyl, heroin, and illegal guns with just a few clicks. Shopping carts, reviews, promo, codes, and poison.

Today, that criminal convenience is over.

President Donald J. Trump at West Point: Every cadet on the field before me should savor this morning — because this is a day you will never forget. In a few moments, you will become graduates of the most ELITE and storied military academy in human history.

President Donald J. Trump at West Point: "As you receive your commissions as Second Lieutenants, each of you continues down the same hallowed path walked by the titans and legends of U.S. Military lore."

Three years ago today, on May 24, 2022, an 18-year-old gunman opened fire at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas, killing 19 children and two teachers. The gunman, a former student at the school, was also killed.

Please continue to remember these 21 beautiful angels and pray for the families who miss them every day. 🙏🏻

🦠 Here we go again: The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's airport screening program has detected multiple cases of the new COVID-19 variant NB.1.8.1, which has been linked to a large surge of the virus in China. 

Cases linked to the NB.1.8.1 variant have been reported in arriving international travelers at airports in California, Washington state, Virginia and the New York City area, according to records uploaded by the CDC's airport testing partner Ginkgo Bioworks.

Details about the sequencing results, which were published in recent weeks on the GISAID, or Global Initiative on Sharing All Influenza Data, virus database, show the cases stem from travelers from a number of countries, including Japan, South Korea, France, Thailand, the Netherlands, Spain, Vietnam, China and Taiwan. The travelers were tested from April 22 through May 12, the records show.

Cases of NB.1.8.1 have also now been reported by health authorities in other states, including Ohio, Rhode Island and Hawaii, separate from the airport cases. In California and Washington state, the earliest cases date back to late March and early April.
