They discovered how incredibly rare this tortie kitten was after saving the little one along with another cat. Best Friends FelinesThe volunteers at Best Friends Felines (a cat rescue) didn't hesitate when asked to help a litter of kittens that had been found orphaned.In desperate need of care, they were brought to a local vet clinic, where the dedicated staff worked tirelessly to help them. "One of their nurses provided crucial initial care, ensuring they were fed, toileted, and kept warm," Best Friends Felines shared.A tortie and a black-and-white kitten, the sole survivors of their litter, overcame every challenge and began to thrive. MintyBest Friends FelinesOnce they were stable, a foster volunteer at Best Friends Felines welcomed them into their care."They're feeding well, exercising their vocal cords when hungry, and spending the rest of their time curled up sleeping. They're a little on the small side for their estimated 2.5 weeks of age but are showing good progress." MooBest Friends FelinesSince roughly 99.9% of tortie (tortoiseshell) cats are female, they assumed their new kitten was a girl. "She" arrived with a determined spirit and a lot of tortitude. "Our naughty tortie is now Minty, and our scruffy but fluffy black-and-white girl is Moo."In just one week, they gained more than half of their body weight and were bursting with energy. "Their appetites are great, and they're thriving on bottle feeds." Minty and Moo were found as orphaned kittensBest Friends FelinesThey reached one milestone after another, and their charm truly came to life, though no one had yet realized how special the tortie was."Minty is always the instigator, while Moo prefers rolling around on her back, looking adorable and enticing Minty for a wrestle. Now that their ears are fully open, they recognize their carer's voice and perk up as soon as they hear it." Minty thrives as the center of attentionBest Friends Felines"When trying to stand or move about, their little legs are still a bit wobbly, but soon they'll be trotting around with confidence."And so they did. Once they were big enough to zip around the house and scale every surface in sight, their personalities shone through. Minty reveled in being the center of attention, while Moo charmed everyone with her laid-back, cuddly nature. Moo is laid-back, cuddly, and very fluffyBest Friends FelinesWhen the kittens were ready for their vet visit and old enough to be fixed, the team at Best Friends Felines was in for a surprising twist. "For the first time in Best Friends Felines' 10 years, we were shocked, but in a good way, with the news from one of our vets.""We have a rare male tortie amongst our kittens. Male tortoiseshells are very rare." Minty is, in fact, a male tortieBest Friends FelinesAbout one in 3,000 tortoiseshell cats is male, and these males are almost always sterile. When they heard the vet call the tortie a boy over the phone, they paused for a second and said, "Say what now?""That will teach us to always check and never just presume." Roughly, one in three thousand tortoiseshell cats is maleBest Friends FelinesMinty is just as happy, playful, and affectionate as always. He brings a soothing and comforting presence to every room he enters.Whether his humans are working, reading, or watching TV, he'll be close by, often curled up in a blanket or snuggled in their lap.

Fetterman on LA Riots: 'My Party Loses the Moral High Ground'

Democrat California Gov. Gavin Newsom lobbed an accusation against President Donald Trump on Monday, but the president fired back to contradict the claim and brought evidence to back him up.Newsom has been in a legal and rhetorical feud with the president over the federal response to rioting in Los Angeles against deportation operations by Immigration and Customs Enforcement.'More than anything else, this shows what a liar he is - said I never called. Here is the evidence.'The governor responded to a video on social media in which Trump was asked by a reporter when he had last spoken with Newsom."A day ago. Called him up to tell him, 'Got to do a better job.' He's doing a bad job. Causing a lot of death and a lot of potential death," Trump replied to the reporter. "If we didn't send out the National Guard, and last night we gave him a little additional help, you would have — Los Angeles would be burning right now."Newsom claimed that the president had not called at all."There was no call. Not even a voicemail. Americans should be alarmed that a President deploying Marines onto our streets doesn’t even know who he’s talking to," he posted.RELATED: California city terminates agreement with ICE as Los Angeles rioting continues into 4th day Photo by BENJAMIN HANSON/Middle East Images/AFP via Getty Images The president apparently took umbrage at the accusation and sent evidence to John Roberts of Fox News that he had indeed spoken with Newsom."First call was not picked up. Second call, Gavin picked up, we spoke for 16 minutes. I told him to, essentially, 'get his ass in gear,' and stop the Riots, which were out of control," Trump said, according to a social media post from Roberts. "More than anything else, this shows what a liar he is — Said I never called. Here is the evidence."Roberts posted a screenshot of the phone logs that showed one outgoing call for 2 seconds at 1:22 a.m. on Saturday morning and a second call for 16 minutes a minute later, at 1:23 a.m. The contact person listed at the top read, "Gavin Newsom."RELATED: Anti-ICE violence spreads across America: Here's a roundup from Monday The governor has filed an emergency motion against Trump taking control of California's National Guard over the melee in L.A. At the beginning of the rioting, Newsom accused the president of needlessly antagonizing the rioters.“That move is purposefully inflammatory and will only escalate tensions,” said the governor on Saturday. “The Guard has been admirably serving LA throughout recovery. This is the wrong mission and will erode public trust.”Like Blaze News? Bypass the censors, sign up for our newsletters, and get stories like this direct to your inbox. Sign up here!

MSNBC talking head Nicolle Wallace performed, with the aid of a former Jan. 6 committee member, yet another mental gymnastics routine on Monday, framing as ludicrous the suggestion that the targeted violence against federal agents in Los Angeles over the weekend amounted to an insurrection while insisting that the Jan. 6, 2021, riot in Washington, D.C., still qualified.By way of their acrobatics, Wallace and former Virginia Rep. Denver Riggleman accomplished little more than reveal "insurrection" to be a term used by liberals to differentiate riots on the left from riots on the right. "Insurrection" is not explicitly defined by federal law. It is, however, prohibited and generally understood to be an organized and violent act of revolt against an established government or civil authority. Although a riot is similarly characterized by violence, it alternatively tends to be more spontaneous and localized.Elements of the Washington establishment and the liberal media spent years hyperventilating about how the riot at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021 — not the deadly 2020 Black Lives Matter riots that resulted in billions of dollars in damage, thousands of businesses ruined, and 2,037 police officers assaulted or injured — was somehow an insurrection. This suggestion was used to great political effect. For instance, its acceptance enabled the Democrat-appointed justices on Colorado's Supreme Court to rule in 2023 that Coloradans couldn't vote for then-candidate Donald Trump for president — a decision later echoed by a Democratic judge in Illinois but ultimately struck down by the Supreme Court.RELATED: After Trump's decisive action, protests cooling in LA Carlin Stiehl / Los Angeles Times via Getty ImagesSome of the same personalities who liberally threw around "insurrection" in recent years, when doing so meant maligning peaceful Trump supporters and the unarmed boneheads who stole into the U.S. Capitol in 2021, are now coming out of the woodwork to insist that the term's use to describe the targeted leftist revolt against governmental forces in California is inaccurate. As always, MSNBC has been one of their go-to platforms, if not their base of operations. Hosts, contributors, and staff at MSNBC have used the term "insurrection" without reservation when speaking of Jan. 6. MSNBC legal analyst Joyce Vance dubbed it a "mass insurrection." Former MSNBC talking head Joy Reid routinely referred to the rioters and protesters as "insurrectionists." The team over at "The Rachel Maddow Show" also adopted the term with that specific target.Wallace continued using it in reference to Jan. 6 on her show Monday but bristled at the mention of White House deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller referring to the L.A. riots as an insurrection and of both Trump and Vice President JD Vance calling some of the rioters who violently attacked U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents "insurrectionists."Wallace said that "insurrection" is an important word, not only because of its relevance regarding the invocation of the Insurrection Act but because "anyone older than 4 years old remembers an actual insurrection and the way Trump spent his first day in office the second time, pardoning all the rioters involved in January 6."'It's about the target and purpose of it.'Riggleman warned Wallace that the Trump administration is "trying to take the language of January 6."A similar game was being played over at CNN, where senior reporter Aaron Blake accused Trump of using a "broad definition of 'insurrection.'" RELATED: A president’s job is to stop the burning if governors won’t Photo by Apu Gomes/Getty ImagesWhereas Wallace focused on reminding her viewers that the L.A. riots didn't satisfy her criteria for insurrection, Blake identified other uses of the term that he regards as problematic, such as Stephen Miller characterizing an Obama judge's recent decision to undermine the executive branch and temporarily prevent the Trump administration from revoking status for over 500,000 illegal aliens as a "legal insurrection against democracy and the American people"; and Miller's suggestion that the radicals who marched on the Supreme Court and illegally mounted a pressure campaign at conservative justices' homes around the time of the high court's Dobbs decision were engaged in "an open insurrection.""An insurrection isn't about the level of violence," wrote Blake. "It's about the target and purpose of it."So long as the liberal establishment agrees with radicals' target and purpose, it appears it will refrain from calling organized revolts against governmental targets for a political purpose "insurrections."Like Blaze News?

Democrat California Gov. Gavin Newsom was dealt a judicial defeat after he requested an emergency motion to halt President Donald Trump's order to use the military to oppose the Los Angeles riots. Newsom named the president, the Defense secretary, and the Department of Defense as defendants in the request, and a judge allowed the defendants 24 hours to file a response to the request. 'Defendants intend to use unlawfully federalized National Guard troops and Marines to accompany federal immigration enforcement officers on raids.' United States District Judge Charles Breyer temporarily allowed the order to the National Guard to continue until Thursday, when the motion would be reconsidered after the defendants answered and the plaintiffs also responded. Newsom had accused the president of trying to "militarize" Los Angeles. He asked the judge to halt the order within two hours of his filing. “Defendants intend to use unlawfully federalized National Guard troops and Marines to accompany federal immigration enforcement officers on raids throughout Los Angeles," the lawsuit claimed. “They must be stopped, immediately.”The Trump administration filed a statement calling the request "legally meritless." The lawsuit said that the troops were not meant to secure federal buildings, as Trump has claimed. “Specifically, these activities ― scheduled to begin today, June 10, 2025 ― will include ‘holding a secure perimeter in communities around areas where immigration enforcement activities would take place, and securing routes over public streets where immigration enforcement officers would travel,'" the lawsuit continued. RELATED: Los Angeles descends into chaos after police chief says officers will not aid ICE agents; Trump sends National Guard troops Photo by Spencer Platt/Getty Images The lawsuit claimed that the plan by the administration was meant to be replicated across the country. California Attorney General Rob Bonta accused the president of acting unlawfully. “The President is looking for any pretense to place military forces on American streets to intimidate and quiet those who disagree with him. It’s not just immoral — It’s illegal and dangerous,” said Bonta. “Local law enforcement, not the military, enforce the law within our borders." Judge Breyer is the brother of the former Supreme Court Justice Stephen Breyer and was appointed by former President Bill Clinton in 1997. Like Blaze News?

Apple didn't announce any new hardware at WWDC 2025, but the iOS 26 beta seems to have confirmed the existence of an unannounced device. According to MacRumors contributor Steve Moser, there are references to "AirPods Pro 3" in the code of iOS 26 developer beta 1, which is noteworthy, considering Apple hasn't announced them yet. Did Apple just leak its new AirPods? Apple was once a bastion of security when it came to keeping secrets, but the company is now as porous as Samsung or Google. Nearly Every Apple product pops up online weeks or months before the company officially reveals it. Sometimes, Apple is even the party responsible for said leaks, as was apparently the case with the AirPods Pro 3. Moser did note that he "couldn't find any other references or hints as to what new features" the AirPods Pro 3 might have. Apple might have leaked the name, but we'll have to look elsewhere to find out what to expect from its next pair of premium earbuds. Previous AirPods Pro 3 leaks Thankfully, leakers have been hot on the trails of these earbuds for months. Although none of the details have been officially confirmed, we do have a rough idea of what to expect from the AirPods Pro 3 when they arrive at some point in the future. In fact, our own José Adorno rounded up all of the most exciting rumors about the new earbuds earlier this year. The most notable rumored upgrades included improved active noise cancellation (ANC), heart rate and body temperature sensors, and the new H3 chip. As for the design, we've heard that the earbuds will be getting a new look, and there's a decent chance that Apple will adopt the slimmer case of the AirPods 4. There's still plenty we don't know about the AirPods Pro 3, but we'll be keeping an eye out for more leaks ahead of the expected launch at the end of 2025.
