Grotesque squirrels covered in oozing sores have been spotted invading backyards in the US and Canada. Hairless tumors develop from their heads and eyes to their legs, feet, and genitals. First thought to be squirrel pox, the illness is more likely to be squirrel fibromatosis. Homeowners who put bird feeders in their yards may be unintentionally causing the virus to spread to more squirrels throughout North America.

Canada is going through its second-worst burn on record and the blazes are occurring not in the west, but in the bone-dry prairie provinces and the Atlantic region. Tens of thousands of people have been evacuated from their homes due to the wildfires. Saskatchewan and Manitoba have been the worst hit, covering more than 60% of the area burned in Canada. The fires have seized strained resources in Atlantic Canada, where officials in Newfoundland and Labrador are struggling to battle out-of-control blazes. Firefighters in Spain, Portugal, Greece, and Turkiye continue to battle wildfires that have raged on for weeks. Hot and dry conditions are expected to persist, challenging efforts to contain the blazes. Bulgaria, Montenegro, and Albania have requested help from the EU's firefighting force to deal with forest fires. The force has already been activated as many times this year as the entirety of last year's fire season. In April 2025, Israel suffered its largest wildfire ever. read more
Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services (MSHSS) informs that a resident has been infected with Naegleria fowleri. Naegleria fowleri is a microscopic single-celled free-living ameba that can cause a rare life-threatening infection of the brain called primary amebic meningoencephalitis (PAM). The patient is in an ICU. The ameba is commonly found in warm freshwater such as lakes, rivers, and ponds; however, PAM is extremely rare. Since 1962, only 154 known cases have been identified in the US. The only other case identified among a Missouri resident occurred in 1987, and currently, no additional suspected cases of PAM are being investigated in Missouri. The source of the patient's exposure is being investigated by public health officials. Local and out-of-state activity are being considered. Recreational water users should assume that Naegleria fowleri is present in warm freshwater across the US; however, infection remains rare. read more
One day after Islamophobe Laura Loomer posted videos on social media of children from Gaza arriving in the US for medical treatment and questioning how they got visas, the State Department said it was halting all visitor visas for people from Gaza pending a review. The vastly underqualified USSECSTATE Marco Rubio, a vapid empty suit, said the action came after "outreach from multiple congressional offices asking questions about it." Loomer called the medical treatment of crippled and maimed children from Gaza a "national security threat." She asked who signed off on the visas and demanded the person be fired. Loomer tagged Rubio, Dummkopf Trumpf, JD Vance, GOP Texas Gov. Greg Abbott, and Democratic California Gov. Gavin Newsom. read more

America certainly looks like it's on the right side of history supporting two brutal invasions.
