Today @USDA @SecRollins and I secured a major win for animal welfare. Ridglan Farms will transfer its remaining 475 beagles out of a research breeding facility and into the care of a no-kill rescue, where they can begin the path to adoption. Thank you, @LaraLeaTrump, for championing this issue. We are also launching a new @NIH office, ORIVA, to speed the transition away from animal testing and toward modern, human-based science. We will keep fighting for humane treatment of animals, better science, and accountability.

In 2022, filmmaker Joanna Zelman asked her dad: Want to come with me to a farm in Vermont to rescue a baby calf and drive him to a farm animal sanctuary in Maryland? “Cow Trip” is the 27-minute documentary about their adventure. wapo.st/497ASkt

We say goodbye to our founder, the visionary Ted Turner. Ted’s love of classic films inspired him to create a channel dedicated to preserving them. He considered TCM one of his greatest accomplishments. His passion continues to inspire us all as we work to fulfill his mission.

Beautiful sunset Tuesday along the Hudson River.

🍀 Mayor Zohran Mamdani was spotted along the St. Patrick's Day Parade route on Tuesday morning. The mayor was sporting a parade sash with the Irish colors as he waved to the crowd along the route. He briefly stopped to speak with some revelers as he went. The parade goes up Fifth Avenue from 44th Street in Midtown to 79th Street on the Upper East Side. 📸 Steph Patella 🔊 Tune into 1010 WINS at 92.3 FM for more local news #nyc #newyorkcity #nycnews #midtown #parade #fifthavenue #stpaddysday #stpatricksday

New Yorkers, here’s what I want you to know about the announcement we made today calling on the @NYCCouncil to ban horse-drawn carriages in Central Park:

“Storytellers broaden our minds: engage, provoke, inspire, and ultimately, connect us.” - Robert Redford

If you see something, say something.
