    US Factory Farm Animal Population Soars by 50 Percent in 20-Year Span
    https://truthout.org/articles/u-s-factory-farm-animal-population-soars-by-50-percent-in-20-year-span/
    “This unsustainable food system … must be reformed before it is too late,” one advocate said. New data from the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s (USDA) 2022 Census of Agriculture shows that 1.7 billion animals are currently being raised in U.S. factory farms every year – a 6 percent increase from 2016 and nearly a 50 percent increase from 20 years ago. “The largest factory farms that are bad for farmers, the environment and public health keep growing in number,” Anne Schechinger, the Midwest director of the Environmental Working Group (EWG), said in a statement. “The USDA’s new data show that without policy changes, factory farms will continue to get bigger and bigger, wreaking havoc on public health, the environment and the climate.” The U.S. currently has 24,000 factory farms, or concentrated animal feeding operations, that confine large numbers of animals in small spaces. It’s difficult to comprehend the staggering quantity of animals subjected to these inhumane conditions. The recent data from the USDA reveals that factory farms housing 500,000 or more broiler chickens churned out nearly 1.4 billion additional chickens in 2022 compared to 2012. “America today is truly a factory farming nation. Status quo legislating in Washington is enabling a corporate feeding frenzy in rural America,” said Amanda Starbuck, Food and Water Watch’s (FWW) research director. “As industrial confinements drive family-scale farmers off their land, we are left with skyrocketing numbers of animals on factory farms producing enormous amounts of waste.”

    Morocco dinosaur discovery gives clues on why they went extinct
    https://theconversation.com/morocco-dinosaur-discovery-gives-clues-on-why-they-went-extinct-221229
    The top predator was a ten-metre-long animal called Chenanisaurus barbaricus. So far Chenanisaurus is known from just a jawbone, but this tells us it was part of the Abelisauridae, a bizarre family of carnivores found in South America, India, Madagascar and Europe, while tyrannosaurs dominated in the north. Abelisaurs had short, bulldog snouts, and sometimes horns, and they had bizarre, stumpy little arms that make the arms of T. rex look massive by comparison.

    RPD makes discriminatory stops of Black drivers, says judge
    https://richmond.com/news/local/crime-courts/richmond-police-rpd-judge-black-driver-stops/article_89c765e4-ca9a-11ee-a9bc-23acb7fcb5cb.html
    A federal judge found that the Richmond Police Department engages in discriminatory stops of Black drivers, according to an opinion released on Monday afternoon. The opinion came in the case of Keith Rodney Moore, a Black driver with a prior felony conviction who was pulled over in Highland Park in Richmond on Dec. 5, 2020. Officers found a gun in Moore’s car and charged him with felony possession. Moore, who is Black, argued that his case should be dismissed on the basis that the department selectively stops Black people, leading to his current charges. U.S. District Court Judge John A. Gibney Jr. ruled in Moore’s favor, finding that “Black drivers have a problem in Richmond, Virginia,” and that he presented abundant evidence to that effect, including six months worth of stop data from the latter half of 2020. In that dataset, the Richmond police officers were far more likely to stop a Black driver than a white one.

    Man Shot at by Cops Who Got Scared by an Acorn ‘Damaged for Life’
    https://www.vice.com/en/article/g5yneb/man-shot-at-by-cops-who-got-scared-by-an-acorn-damaged-for-life
    In November 2023, a police officer in Okaloosa County, Florida, got in a heated shootout with an acorn, endangering the life of a detained man who was handcuffed in the car. In a video that has gone viral on social media this week both for its absurdity and terrifying implications, Deputy Jesse Hernandez hears an acorn drop onto his car. In response, he dramatically rolls on the ground while repeatedly shouting “shots fired!” and unloading his sidearm into the vehicle, shattering its back window. A document laying out the investigation’s findings would be comical if the stakes weren’t so high. It describes Hernandez falling over, rolling on the ground for several seconds, falling over again while struggling to stand up and breaking his sunglasses, sending a piece flying into the frame. He shouted “shots fired” four times, said the shots were coming from the car, and claimed he was “hit.” His partner, who also unloaded into the car, seemed confused, at one point simply asking him, “What?” The sound of an acorn hitting the car is barely audible before the shooting begins.

    YouTube Livestreamers Made Money ‘Hunting’ for Migrants Along the US Border
    https://www.wired.com/story/far-right-convoy-youtube-live-stream-harass-migrants/
    Far-right extremists have spent the past week harassing and threatening migrants on the United States border with Mexico while making money by livestreaming it on YouTube and Rumble. Throughout the hours-long broadcasts from the border in Arizona and California, these livestreamers regularly asked for donations from their supporters, which they claimed was being used to continue their work “covering” the crisis. Even while in the middle of harassing the migrants, the livestreamers could still be heard thanking those who were sending them money via YouTube’s Super Chat function or through other platforms like Venmo and the Christian-focused crowdfunding site GiveSendGo. In one situation, while Fulfer was shouting at migrants in Arizona telling them to go home, he stopped briefly to call out a supporter who had sent him $50 on Venmo.
