Wolverines Threatened With Extinction Receive Federal Protection
Wolverines Threatened With Extinction , Receive Federal Protection.
On November 29, the Biden administration
released a proposal to give the North American
wolverine long-delayed federal protections.
ABC News reports that the proposal comes following warnings by scientists that climate change is likely
to destroy the rare species' snowy mountain habitat.
By the early 1900s, wolverines had been mostly
wiped out across the U.S. as a result of
unregulated hunting and poisoning campaigns.
An estimated 300 surviving wolverines continue
to live in the contiguous U.S. in isolated groups at
high elevations in the northern Rocky Mountains.
Increasing temperatures are expected
to reduce the mountain snowpack, which
wolverines rely on to birth and raise their cubs.
The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service's decision to protect
wolverines comes after over two decades of debate
regarding threats to the species' long-term survival.
According to officials, the new protections are , “due primarily to the ongoing and increasing
impacts of climate change and associated
habitat degradation and fragmentation.”.
ABC reports that wolverines, which resemble
small bears, are the world's largest
species of terrestrial weasels.
A 2020 lawsuit against the Fish and Wildlife Service claimed
that wolverines face extinction due to a combination of
climate change, habitat loss and low genetic diversity.
.
Scientists have suggested that some of the species'
losses could be offset if wolverines are allowed to
recolonize in areas like California's Sierra Nevada
Putin has stunned the West with a surprise signal on Ukraine, suggesting that Moscow could offer security guarantees under certain conditions. Speaking after talks with Donald Trump and Slovak PM Robert Fico, Putin contrasted Trump’s “new approach” with Biden’s policies, stressing that Ukraine’s EU path may be possible but NATO membership remains a hard red line. The move has ignited speculation about a potential geopolitical shift in the Ukraine war.

In a stunning move, President Trump has revoked Kamala Harris’ extended Secret Service protection, stripping away security granted by President Biden after her vice presidency. Harris, the first woman and person of color to serve as Vice President, was set to receive an extra year of coverage due to heightened threats. Effective September 1, her protective agents, property surveillance, and federal threat intelligence will end—just weeks before her national book tour. The decision has sparked backlash from California leaders, raising concerns over safety and mounting private security costs.

US Vice President J.D. Vance has defended his fiery Oval Office clash with Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky, calling the February confrontation “useful” for Americans to witness. The heated exchange erupted during Zelensky’s Washington visit to secure a deal over Ukraine’s mineral resources. When Donald Trump explained his decision to stay neutral and pursue diplomacy with Moscow instead of ramping up military aid, Zelensky accused him of speaking from the safety of “a nice ocean.” Vance shot back, calling the remark “disrespectful,” and Trump told Zelensky not to lecture Americans. Vance later argued that years of unchecked aid under Joe Biden lacked strategy and failed to advance peace. He said the episode exposed Washington’s frustrations and underlined Trump’s push for a settlement with Moscow. The clash has become a flashpoint in US-Ukraine relations, showing cracks in support for Kyiv as Trump courts a diplomatic end to the war.

In a fiery White House exchange, South Korean President Lee Jae Myung sided with U.S. President Donald Trump as both leaders accused Joe Biden of enabling North Korea’s nuclear rise. President Lee told Trump the Korean peninsula was “stable” during Trump’s first term, but claimed North Korea advanced its weapons program significantly under Biden’s watch. Trump immediately seized the moment, declaring, “They would not have done that if I were President,” to which Lee replied, “I completely agree with you.” The dramatic on-camera moment is fueling debate in Washington and Seoul, with critics warning that such public criticism of Biden could inflame U.S. domestic politics and reshape Korean diplomacy. Supporters of Trump, however, hailed the remarks as proof that his strongman approach had kept Pyongyang in check. The sharp rebuke leaves Biden facing fresh questions over his North Korea policy.

In a dramatic twist that could shake North American diplomacy, U.S. President Donald Trump has launched a fiery warning at Canada following its unexpected endorsement of Palestinian statehood. Trump took to Truth Social to express his outrage, stating, “That will make it very hard for us to make a Trade Deal with them. Oh’ Canada!!!” The statement comes amid ongoing discussions about trade relations between the two nations.
Canada’s stance on Palestine appears to have infuriated Trump, who sees this as a betrayal of U.S. interests and a roadblock to future trade negotiations. The move has sparked intense reactions across the political spectrum, with analysts now speculating about a potential freeze in economic ties. Trump's outburst raises concerns of diplomatic fallout and shifts the spotlight to Canada's role in the Middle East peace debate. Could this signal a bigger rift between traditional allies? The world is watching.

A powerful 7.3‑magnitude earthquake struck off Alaska’s coast Wednesday, prompting an immediate tsunami warning for South Alaska and the Alaska Peninsula. The USGS reported its epicenter was roughly 54 miles south of Sand Point at a shallow 20 km depth — conditions that raise tsunami fears. The National Tsunami Warning Center confirmed a tsunami has occurred, cautioning coastal communities from Kennedy Entrance to Unimak Pass.
Though only these regions are at risk, residents are urged to evacuate low-lying areas and stay alert for updates. Alaska, part of the seismic Pacific Ring of Fire, previously endured a deadly 9.2 quake in 1964—the strongest in North America, which unleashed a devastating tsunami. While a 7.2 quake in July 2023 passed without major incident, the current event has revived emergency vigilance. Authorities are working to assess impacts and ensure community safety as aftershocks and swelling waves remain a concern.

U.S. Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has ignited a firestorm by calling Donald Trump a “Rapist” in a social media post referencing Jeffrey Epstein. The remark, made on X, accused Trump of obstructing the release of Epstein-related files during his presidency. The post went viral, drawing immediate outrage from Trump’s supporters, with many labeling the comment defamatory.
Conservative voices, including Laura Loomer, invoked precedent from a recent $15 million defamation settlement involving ABC’s George Stephanopoulos. Critics argue Trump has never been criminally convicted of Rape, and AOC’s post could open the door to legal action. The controversy is unfolding alongside renewed scrutiny of the Epstein case, where the DOJ recently denied the existence of a “client list” and reaffirmed Epstein’s death as suicide. AOC has not yet responded to the backlash.
