[Breitbart] An effort to help American families get nutritious eggs during the Easter and Passover holidays is spreading across the country.
Over 97,000 eggs donated to Feed More by Dutt and Wagner and Green Valley Poultry Farm in Virginia is only one instance in the plan to get the food to those in need, 12 On Your Side reported Thursday.
Aaron McClung, chief development officer at Feed More, said, “A lot of families out here don’t have resources, so getting together around, Easter egg hunt or, you rent a table to celebrate a nice breakfast. That’s something that a lot of us take for granted. But thanks to the American, the egg board, this donation from farmers around Virginia is gonna make a huge difference for families in need.”
According to the Incredible Egg website, the American Egg Board is leading the donation effort called the Great American Egg Drive. The website noted that so far 6,332,800 eggs have so far been donated.
“As members of their local communities, egg farmers are proud to give back and share a food that plays an important role in so many spring celebrations — from Seder plates and egg dyeing traditions to the family-favorite recipes that bring people together,” the site read, adding, “This year, the Great American Egg Drive is expanded through a partnership with HATCH, a nonprofit that connects farms with food banks to deliver fresh protein to communities in need.”
Meanwhile, the Houston Food Bank received over 97,000 donated eggs from Cal-Maine Foods, Sauder’s Eggs donated 72,000 eggs to Philabundance in Pennsylvania, Prairie Star Farms joined with Ohio farmers to donate over 300,000 eggs, and Cal-Maine Foods donated over 280,000 eggs to help people in need in North Carolina.
The news comes as egg prices have dropped 80 percent from one year ago, Breitbart News reported.
[PJ] The refugee daughter of the murderous late Cuban dictator and Communist regime founder Fidel Castro thinks it’s time for regime change.
Alina Fernández Revuelta fled Cuba back in 1993 for the United States, where she settled in Miami. Even though, as the daughter of the Communist dictator, she grew up as part of the elite in post-revolutionary Cuba, she quickly began to realize how unjust the system was. In a new interview with The Epoch Times, Fernández shared her perspective as Castro’s daughter, a Cuban refugee, and a freedom lover, as the Trump administration continues to endorse regime change in Cuba.
Fernández stated, "For me, it’s been time for a regime change since the late ’80s." She added, "At the time Fidel Castro died, we were all thinking [his regime] had come to an end, because it was a very personalized and paternalist... narcissistic government... But it survived."
Epoch Times showed a picture of Fernández with Castro at her wedding in 1973, but her connection to her father was not as warm as that photo might imply. "I became a dissident, I mean, publicly... in the late ’80s. So I was scared. I was afraid for my daughter, that something might happen to her," Fernández said.
[BBC] Yet on a nearby island, the disease has never been recorded. Kangaroo Island is thought to host the world's largest chlamydia-free koala population, offering something of a living insurance policy for the species. Still, these koalas are under a pressure of their own: more than a century of isolation has left them deeply inbred and genetically fragile.
This is what brings Burke Da Silva and her colleague Julian Beaman to study koalas in the region. They hope that by first improving the genetic diversity of Kangaroo Island's koalas, then introducing them to other low-chlamydia areas of Australia, they can help tackle the current plight facing the species.
[Blaze Media] A congressman could neither confirm nor deny shocking claims made about hybrid alien species and a string of mysterious deaths.
During a recent interview, Rep. Tim Burchett (R-Tenn.) urged President Trump to disclose government secrets that he said would rock the nation, saying that what he has seen would keep people up at night.
Burchett spoke with Newsmax host Rob Finnerty about recent stories and claims made about UFOs and alien disclosure. Perhaps most shockingly, Finnerty highlighted claims made by former Republican Rep. Matt Beavis Gaetz (R-Fla.), who recently said he was once briefed by U.S. Army personnel about the locations of "hybrid breeding programs where captured aliens were breeding with humans to create some hybrid race that could engage in intergalactic communication."
Gaetz told host Benny Johnson about "enforced breeding programs" between aliens and humans who had been abducted from war zones or migrant caravans.

Ho-hum. After multiple generations of pop culture scifi, I expect the shock will be mostly among those who view the universe in the old manner of a geocentric flat earth.

That is when the pendulum will swing the other direction, "Well ahkxually when dimensional traveling, all objects enter into solely 2 dimensions, hence a flat Earth."
[Fortune - 28 Mar 2025] The United Nations predicts the global population will peak at 10.3 billion by the mid-2080s and cap off. Once speculated to be centuries away, the peak is now within grasp due to declining fertility rates across the world.
Last year, the U.S. fertility rate hit a historic low. Between 2014 and 2020, the fertility rate consistently decreased by 2% each year, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Most notably, women between the ages of 20 and 39 arThe economy has shouldered most of the blame for declining fertility rates. Having children is an expensive endeavor—and the tough housing market, a lack of universal paid family leave, and a shortage of affordable child care are not helping. Additionally, more people are marrying later in life than generations prior and having fewer children as a result.
However, Alice Evans, a social scientist at King’s College London, believes the baby bust is credited to something else entirely because the decline is consistent across vastly different economic landscapes.
So what can we attribute it to? More people are staying single—thanks to the phone. e not having as many children as prior generations.
Certainly the answer is multifaceted, but there’s one undeniable driver behind America’s as well as nearly every other country’s declining birth rates, says Lyman Stone, senior fellow and director of the Pronatalism Initiative at the Institute for Family Studies: the iPhone.
On this episode of “Rufo & Lomez,” Christopher Rufo and Jonathan Keeperman speak with Stone about how our most pervasive technology is wrecking the world’s fertility numbers.

Indirectly. Social media driven on the phones has exposed the thoughts and thinking of females 18-30 and its largely seen as toxic. Males are doing a personal cost analysis and have determined its a losing game and have elected to sit it out.
