While the site is not yet fully complete, officials expect it to begin producing 30 million sterile flies by mid-July. “The more sterile flies we produce and deploy, the faster we can suppress and ultimately…

Mike DeWine signed into law on June 15 allocates $25 million to acquire more state wildlife and forestry lands open to hunters and trappers.

It was a warm, early autumn day in D.C. as Sam O’Hara trailed several National Guard members.It had been several weeks since President Donald Trump had declared a “crime emergency” in the nation’s capital and deployed federal troops. On three separate occasions O’Hara had taken to playing “The Imperial March” as a Star Wars-inspired peaceful protest, recorded and uploaded to O’Hara’s social media accounts.
