President Donald Trump’s tolerance for allied actions that undermine America’s negotiations with Iran may have reached its limit.

Negotiators representing the U.S. and Iran appeared poised last week to advance the cause of peace between their respective nations, extend the fragile ceasefire that first went into effect in April, and open the Strait of Hormuz again to trade.

‘Everybody hates you now.’

On Monday, Trump stated that “Iran really wants to make a deal, and it will be a good one for the U.S.A. and those that are with us.”

Within hours of the president expressing optimism about resolving the unpopular conflict that is now in its 13th week — the peace talks began to quickly unravel.

Iranian state media and government officials indicated that Tehran was backing out of the talks largely over Israel’s offensive in Lebanon and the escalations in Beirut that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu had announced earlier in the day.

Although he initially appeared apathetic — telling NBC News, for instance, “I think it’s fine if they’re done talking” — Trump attempted to resurrect the peace talks, calling Netanyahu to impress upon him the need to change course in Lebanon.

According to the president, Netanyahu agreed that “there will be no Troops going to Beirut, and any Troops that are on their way, have already been turned back.”

Two U.S. officials and a third source briefed on the call revealed to Axios that Trump used some choice words and effectively “steamrolled” the Israeli prime minister.

One official, summarizing Trump’s remarks to Netanyahu, claimed that the president effectively said, “You’re f**king crazy. You’d be in prison if it weren’t for me. I’m saving your ass. Everybody hates you now. Everybody hates Israel because of this.”

Netanyahu, who faces an outstanding warrant from the International Criminal Court for alleged war crimes and crimes against humanity, was indicted in 2019 in three Israeli criminal cases for alleged bribery, fraud, and breach of trust. Last year, Trump called for Israel to pardon Netanyahu and/or drop his corruption case. Netanyahu’s corruption trial is ongoing.

‘Let’s see how long that lasts.’

The source briefed on the call told Axios that Trump was “pissed” and yelled at Netanyahu, “What the f**k are you doing?”

One of the U.S. officials claimed that Trump was aware of Hezbollah’s attacks on Israel and the Jewish state’s need to defend itself but was still convinced that Netanyahu’s recent escalations were disproportionate.

Another U.S. official told Axios that Trump was also concerned over how many civilians Israel has killed in Lebanon. Well over 3,300 people have been killed and around 10,000 have been injured in the Israeli strikes on Lebanon since March 2, according to the Lebanese health ministry.

The White House did not respond to Blaze News’ request for comment.

Shortly after the call, Netanyahu confirmed he had spoken to Trump and “told him that if Hezbollah does not cease attacking our cities and citizens — Israel will attack terror targets in Beirut. This stance of ours remains unchanged. In parallel, the IDF will continue to operate as planned in southern Lebanon.”

Israeli Minister of National Security Itamar Ben-Gvir publicly told Netanyahu after the call that “this is the time to tell our friend, President Trump — ‘no.’ Now is the time to do what is required and necessary to strike Hezbollah, to unleash the hands of our fighters, and to restore security to the north.”

After stating that “talks are continuing, at a rapid pace, with the Islamic Republic of Iran,” Trump thanked Netanyahu for reversing course on his planned Beirut attacks in a Monday evening post on Truth Social and noted that both Israel and Hezbollah have tentatively agreed to stop shooting at one another.

“Let’s see how long that lasts — Hopefully it will be for ETERNITY!” added Trump,

A California woman — dubbed the “party mom” by local authorities — has been sentenced to decades in prison after throwing alcohol-fueled parties for young teens and orchestrating sexual misconduct between the minors.

The Santa Clara District Attorney announced Thursday that 52-year-old Shannon O’Connor, also known as Shannon Bruga, was sentenced to 35 years and 10 months in prison — the maximum punishment.

‘The trauma shattered parts of me, and every day I wake up, I’m rebuilding what you broke.’

O’Connor has been in jail since her arrest in 2021, and she will receive credit for time served.

She also was ordered to register as a sex offender.

As Blaze News reported in March, O’Connor was convicted of 48 charges — including two felony charges of sexual penetration.

The Mercury News previously reported, “The sexual penetration convictions were the most serious, as prosecutors argued that O’Connor sexually assaulted the two girls by enabling them to become so intoxicated they could not legally consent.”

The district attorney said O’Connor hosted “drunken parties for young teenagers where she bought alcohol and egged on sex acts — some with teens too drunk to consent.”

The district attorney’s office said O’Connor hosted “drunken and destructive parties” for teens for two years.

Authorities said O’Connor would message teenagers and encourage them to leave their homes in the middle of the night and come to her house to drink alcohol.

The DA said O’Connor supplied vodka, Fireball whiskey, and condoms to teens who attended parties at her home.

“At one party, O’Connor handed an underaged teenager a condom and pushed him into a room with an intoxicated minor,” the district attorney stated.

“During a New Year’s Eve party with about five 14-year-olds, the defendant watched and laughed as a drunk teen sexually battered a young girl in bed,” the statement read.

The DA noted, “In another case, the defendant brought one drunk teen into a bedroom, where an intoxicated 14-year-old girl was lying in the bed.”

According to the district attorney, after the victim was sexually assaulted, she told O’Connor: “Why did you leave me in there with him? Like, you knew, like, what he was going to do to me.”

During the trial, one of the female victims told the courtroom she became suicidal from the trauma she experienced at a house party, the DA said.

The district attorney noted that O’Connor instructed the victims to not tell anyone about the parties because she could go to jail.

Police said O’Connor allowed a minor to drive her SUV in the parking lot of Los Gatos High School with two other teens holding on to the back. However, one of the teens fell off the vehicle and was knocked unconscious, according to authorities.

O’Connor was arrested in October 2021 in Idaho.

When detectives went to O’Connor’s house to arrest her, there were “10 underage boys and two girls at her home — most of whom spent the night there,” according to the Ada County Sheriff’s Office.

KABC-TV reported that a victim during the hearing said, “I wish I could say that every memory with you has been healed with time, but I still find myself crying myself to sleep over the way that you took complete advantage of me.”

Another victim said, “Shannon O’Connor held me prisoner for almost six years. It’s her turn to serve a very long sentence in jail.”

Yet another victim added, “The trauma shattered parts of me, and every day I wake up, I’m rebuilding what you broke.”

The mother of one of the victims during the hearing said, “When people call you a monster, pedophile, rapist, they had it right. You preyed upon my daughter by supplying her alcohol, enticing a sexual situation, and pushing her when she was not in a place to consent.”

The Los Gatan reported that one victim said, “I was 11 years old when I met you. That was when you started texting me every day, slowly earning my trust only to use it against me.”

KRON-TV reported that O’Connor apologized to the victims and their families during the sentencing hearing.

“I am responsible for the harmful situation that I put your daughters and sons through,” O’Connor told the courtroom.

“But as I look at you all today, I hope you can find some comfort knowing that I have been punished — and will continue to be for years to come,” O’Connor continued.

She added, “I’m sorry for all of you and what I put you through. I am ashamed, and I face every day knowing that I was the cause of so many people’s anguish.”

O’Connor concluded, “I want you all to know that I live every day wishing I could take everything back.”

However, Deputy District Attorney Joanne Lee described O’Connor’s remarks as “deeply offensive” and showed “zero accountability.”

Before handing down the sentence, Santa Clara County Superior Court Judge Elizabeth C. Peterson said she did not find O’Connor “genuinely remorseful.”

Santa Clara District Attorney Jeff Rosen said in a statement:

Many people call this defendant the “Los Gatos Party Mom.” This isn’t some fun parent giving sips of wine spritzers to kids. She facilitated dangerous and drunken sex acts with these children. She risked their lives and damaged their psyches. She is not a party mom. Shannon O’Connor is a convicted felon. Shannon O’Connor is a registered sex offender.

O’Connor’s lawyer, Stephen Prekoski, said they will appeal, according to KRON.

“She never had a meaningful opportunity to settle this case,” Prekoski stated. “I’m not persuaded by those that believe that she was not remorseful. I’m not persuaded by those that believe that she didn’t take accountability for her actions.”

Kate Gude, the mother of another one of the victims, said after the sentencing, “This shows that when you come together, you put these bad people away, and the kids have a shot. You got to speak up and speak out. It’s the only way to keep everybody safe, happy, and whole.”

Basketball fans are used to league-wide activism, but now the NBA has seemingly made a decision that will bring some normalcy to its fanfare.

By this point, viewers are no doubt used to the league promoting race-based activism, and most will probably remember the vaccine debacle that brought individual rights and bodily autonomy to the forefront.

‘The NBA family has long believed in the unifying power of basketball.’

Now, in a league where players are quite literally rewarded for their activism, a partnership with sports trading-card company Topps and other America-focused groups is taking a front-row seat at the NBA Finals.

For the series between the New York Knicks and San Antonio Spurs, the players will wear patches that read “USA 250” on their jerseys to celebrate the 250th birthday of the United States, the NBA reported.

According to Topps, players’ patches will be removed after every game, and “select game-worn patches” will be featured inside “ultra-rare” trading cards.

The initiative is part of the NBA’s year-long celebration of the United States, which was announced in January, alongside partnerships with several groups, some of which are less controversial than others.

“The 250th birthday of the United States offers the NBA family a wonderful opportunity for reflection and civic engagement, and we’re proud to help bring communities together through hands-on service,” said the NBA’s senior vice president of social impact and inclusion, Barbara Bush.

“The NBA family has long believed in the unifying power of basketball and the importance of taking collective action to strengthen our communities,” Bush added.

To that end, the NBA has been working with the organizations Military250, Stand Together, and America250.

Military250 is described as a national initiative dedicated to honoring the 250th anniversaries of the U.S. Army, Navy, and Marine Corps, as well as focusing on veterans and military families.

Stand Together is an organization that is more political in nature, pledging to work through the country’s toughest issues while offering discussion on topics like immigration, freedom of speech, and criminal justice.

America250 is more direct. Its website says it is focused on inspiring fellow Americans to reflect on the country’s past, strengthen their “love of country,” and to renew their “commitment to the ideals of democracy.”

In addition to the America-themed NBA trading cards, Topps announced it will have “Freedom 250” cards for the upcoming UFC event at the White House.

Washington has an old joke: Nothing is more permanent than a temporary government program.

Look past the quip and a pattern emerges. Programs created to address specific problems rarely disappear when those problems recede. They develop constituencies, build bureaucracies, and acquire defenders. Programs meant to die are kept alive through zombie funding long after their original purpose has faded.

Federal grants are not entitlements. Recipients should earn and re-earn them through demonstrated performance.

Milton Friedman spent decades explaining why. In “Free to Choose,” he distilled the point into a simple insight: When you spend your own money on yourself, you care about cost and value. When you spend someone else’s money on someone else — which is precisely what federal grantmaking entails — neither cost nor value receives the same scrutiny it would if the money were your own.

That is the system the Trump administration is now trying to change through a sweeping overhaul of federal grant regulations developed by the Office of Management and Budget. The core idea is simple enough that it should not require federal rulemaking to defend: Public money should produce public results. If it does not, the money should not continue automatically.

Washington has often operated on the opposite assumption. Grants get awarded. Organizations build staffs around them. Those staffs lobby to preserve them. Programs that fail rarely disappear cleanly; they are restructured, rebranded, and refunded. The constituency for any particular line of spending is loud and organized. The constituency for cutting it is diffuse and quiet. That is not a bug. It is a feature that benefits insiders and leaves taxpayers with the bill.

The proposed reforms rest on a simple principle: Federal funding should be earned continuously, not granted automatically. Stronger reporting requirements would force grantees to demonstrate results rather than document activity. Expanded use of the Treasury Department’s Do Not Pay system would help prevent improper payments before funds go out — a meaningful safeguard given that the OMB reported roughly $236 billion in improper payments government-wide in the 2023 fiscal year. Enhanced transparency rules would make it easier for taxpayers to see where federal dollars go and what they produce.

The goal is to shift federal grantmaking from routine renewal to ongoing performance review.

The proposal also takes on something Washington rarely discusses honestly: grantee capture. When a nonprofit receives most of its revenue from federal grants, it no longer operates as a purely independent civic institution. It functions as a publicly funded contractor with a development office. Taxpayers deserve to know when groups presenting themselves as independent advocates also depend heavily on federal money.

One provision deserves special support: ensuring that faith-based organizations can compete for grants on equal terms with secular ones. Charitable-choice provisions dating to the 1996 welfare reform law, executive-branch guidance under President Bush, and Executive Order 14332 signed by President Trump in 2025 already prohibit religious discrimination in many grant competitions.

But law on paper and law in practice often diverge. The federal government should judge applicants on their ability to deliver results — not on whether they pray before staff meetings.

Critics will argue that these reforms could be used to disadvantage political opponents. Some of that criticism will land. Implementation will matter enormously, and the effort’s credibility will depend on whether agencies apply performance metrics consistently and transparently across programs.

But the underlying principle should command broad support: Federal grants are not entitlements. Recipients should earn and re-earn them through demonstrated performance. Any serious steward of public resources should embrace that standard.

Friedman understood that bad incentive structures produce bad outcomes regardless of the intentions of the people operating within them. The federal grant system has tolerated weak incentives for too long. Large flows of public money require constant oversight. Without it, mistakes, waste, and fraud become predictable.

After decades of promises to eliminate waste, fraud, and abuse, the Trump administration’s reforms represent something Washington too rarely attempts: real change.

Every dollar the federal government spends was earned by someone outside Washington. Taxpayers deserve to know it was used well.

Liberals in the United Kingdom have worked feverishly in recent years to paint white Britons uniquely as history’s villains, undermine their unique claims to the isles, and erase them from British history.

What’s more, police and some in the justice system have shown that they are willing to hold whites — white men in particular — to a different standard than virtually every other group.

The British public has now been confronted with incontrovertible evidence of this campaign’s influence and impact in the case of Henry Nowak, an 18-year-old Englishman who died at the feet of maligning and disbelieving police.

‘Henry told officers that he could not breathe nine times.’

Walking home from a night out with his soccer team on Dec. 3, Nowak encountered a 23-year-old Sikh named Vickrum Digwa, who, on account of a religious exemption to the general ban on carrying knives in Britain, was armed.

In an unprovoked attack, Digwa stabbed the University of Southampton finance student repeatedly with an eight-inch blade — a blade that Digwa’s mother, Kiran Kaur, later hid in an effort to aid her killer kin.

Digwa and his family members also proceeded to falsely tell police not only that Nowak was the real aggressor — a supposed racist who had attacked Digwa and knocked off his turban — but that Nowak hadn’t been stabbed and was just exaggerating about his injuries.

Even as Nowak lay dying, officers from the Hampshire and Isle of Wight Constabulary reflexively entertained the Digwa family’s lies and handcuffed the white teen. Nowak’s handcuffs were removed only after the “severity of his condition was becoming clear,” police claimed.

After much public clamor, the damning police body camera footage of Nowak’s arrest was finally released on Monday, showing the nightmarish scene, including:

Digwa and his kin standing over the dying Englishman, then lying about what happened;police dismissing Nowak’s claims about being stabbed;Nowak begging repeatedly for help while being handcuffed; anda female officer suggesting they should confirm he was not stabbed, then aborting the effort after seeing one of Digwa’s slash marks on the victim’s face.

William Mousley, the Southampton judge who oversaw the murder trial, noted in his sentencing remarks on Monday that after stabbing his “defenseless” victim, Digwa — accompanied by his brother, Gurpreet — abused the teen and made “films of Henry suffering” and trying to escape before the arrival of police.

“You lied to him that you had been attacked, picking up on his question about whether it had been accompanied by racism by falsely claiming that Henry had called you a ‘Paki,'” said Mousley. “I am sure that Henry had said nothing racist.”

Mousley sentenced Digwa to life imprisonment with a minimum term of 20 years and 190 days before any consideration can be given to possible parole.

According to the BBC, the attorney general’s office is reconsidering the prison sentence after being deluged by requests to review it under the unduly lenient sentence scheme.

Digwa’s mother, Kiran Kaur, is set to be sentenced for attempting to help her son cover up his crime. Digwa’s father, Moga Singh, and his brother, Gurpreet Digwa, have reportedly been slapped with multiple weapons charges and are expected to appear in court on Tuesday.

After Digwa’s sentencing, Mark Nowak, Henry’s father, publicly addressed his dead son’s egregious treatment by the Southampton police as evidenced in the video footage.

“When police arrived, Henry was lying on the floor, barely able to sit up and plainly in severe medical distress,” said the bereaved father. “With his final words, he told officers that he could not breathe. He told them he had been stabbed. In fact, Henry told officers that he could not breathe nine times. He told them he had been stabbed four times.”

“The response from one officer was ‘I don’t think you have, mate,'” continued Mark Nowak. “The police have said they were misled by the murderer and that the scene when they arrived was complex. Unfortunately, it seems to us the truth is much simpler.”

Mark Nowak emphasized that police chose not to believe his son or the member of the public who called and reported someone claiming to have been stabbed. Instead, they dragged his bloody son across the gravel, wrenched his hands behind his back, handcuffed him, formally arrested him for assault, and read him his rights.

“Henry did not die with dignity. He did not die with the care he deserved. He lost consciousness before anyone believed him,” said Mark Nowak.

‘Look back in anger.’

While assigning to Digwa all blame for his son’s death, Mark Nowak noted that his son should not have died in police custody and that “the way he was treated was inhumane and degrading.”

The father noted further that, unlike his son, the Sikh murderer was curiously “afforded decency. He was believed. He was not handcuffed when arrested. He was not handcuffed when transported to the police station. As far as we understand, he was never handcuffed at all.”

“The contrast is unbearable,” said Mark Nowak.

Others around the U.K. and around the globe have reacted similarly to the police video.

Nigel Farage, the leader of the Reform UK Party, said, “This is the most shocking footage of discrimination that you will ever see. A white boy being handcuffed by police officers more concerned by an accusation of racism than an act of murder. This must be a turning point. White lives matter too.”

Whereas Prime Minister Keir Starmer offered a weak response coupled with a condemnation of “knife crime,” British Member of Parliament Rupert Lowe, formerly of the Reform UK Party and now the leader of Restore Britain, offered a forceful series of condemnations and demanded “prosecutions for what happened to Henry Nowak.”

‘Now this is the moment for real f**king change.’

“Young white British men are bleeding to death in the street as a direct result of our racist establishment. I will never forget, and I will never forgive,” Lowe said on Tuesday.

Lowe vowed to “look back in anger” and suggested that were his party in power, Digwa would be put to death, “the police officers on the scene who allowed Henry to die [would] face criminal charges for gross negligence manslaughter,” and “Digwa’s foreign family [would] be deported.”

“Sara Sharif. The Nottingham killer. The Manchester bomber. The grooming gangs. Now Henry Nowak,” wrote Conservative Party MP Claire Coutinho, the shadow minister for equalities. “We have to unpick the mentality across our public services that says accusations of racism are more important than protecting the public from harm.”

“If we stay the hand of those who are meant to protect the public, if we tie them up in knots with unconscious bias training and Islamophobia definitions, then we are making their jobs even more impossible and we can see from case after case that we are failing to protect the public from serious harm,” added Coutinho.

Conservative Party leader Kemi Badnoch similarly criticized the “training that the police have been given” and the “race action plans” implemented in the wake of the Black Lives Matter mania earlier this decade.

“Now this is the moment for real f**king change, not George Floyd, a dead crackhead in America,” said activist Tommy Robinson.

The Hampshire and Isle of Wight Constabulary did not respond to Blaze News’ request for comment.

Robert France, the temporary deputy chief constable, apologized on Thursday for the police’s grievous mistreatment of Nowak, stating, “I am sorry that in the moments before he lost consciousness, [Nowak] had been handcuffed and arrested.”

Vice President JD Vance revealed just how much taxpayer money is lost to fraud across America — and it’s more than you think.

“We’ve referred over $22 billion in fraudulent small business loans back to the Treasury for collection. We deferred more than $1.3 billion in fraudulent Medicaid reimbursements that were coming from various states, particularly California,” Vance explained.

The Trump administration has also “put a six-month hold on enrollments for new hospice and home health care providers” due to a large amount of fraud uncovered in hospices all over the country.

“We’ve recovered taxpayer funds from the $135 billion stolen after the floodgates were opened in the immediate aftermath of COVID. We have found $6.3 billion in suspected fraudulent government contracts which were mostly awarded during the last administration, and that has stopped,” Vance continued.

“And finally, we’ve blocked $60 million in student aid fraud that should have gone to young people trying to get an education, but instead were going to fraudsters,” he added.

“JD Vance is doing his darndest to try to clean up the fraud situation in America,” BlazeTV host Pat Gray comments. “We’ve got all the Somali fraud. We’ve got fraud in California. We’ve got fraud, I’m sure, in every state, but it’s really really rampant in some more than others.”

White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller also commented on the huge amount of fraud, explaining that American systems were “set up based on the honor system.”

“They’re set up based on the idea that you could trust the average person, through their own morality, to abide by the rules and comply with the law,” he said, before championing Vance’s efforts to tackle fraud.

“Because of the vice president’s leadership, you are seeing the most muscular, robust, aggressive, dedicated, determined, and speedy effort to shut down criminal fraud that has not only ever occurred in the history of this country, but in any developed nation,” he said.

“Thank you,” Gray comments.

A rare defect that can be devastating to children is getting a first-of-its-kind medicine from Japanese researchers.

A new treatment is now five years in the making, and after being used for medical applications, it’s likely the product will be available for use by the general population as well.

‘We feel that people’s expectations … are high.’

Since 2021, Japanese researchers have been hoping to find a solution for anodontia, the medical term for the complete absence of teeth, according to the Cleveland Clinic.

The initial study for this project states that anodontia and congenital tooth agenesis are common tooth anomalies affecting 1% of the worldwide population, resulting in a high rate of missing teeth.

The solution, according to lead researcher Katsu Takahashi, is to counteract a protein called USAG-1, which inhibits the growth of teeth.

“We want to do something to help those who are suffering from tooth loss or absence,” he told the Mainichi in 2024. “While there has been no treatment to date providing a permanent cure, we feel that people’s expectations for tooth growth are high.”

The goal of the project is to give young children who have no teeth the joy of a real smile.

The research was moved into human trials in October 2024 and lasted until October 2025. The controlled trial involved 30 males between 30 and 65 who were missing one or more molars, and the medicine was administered through one single intravenous dose.

The study has since been marked as completed, but little public information has been released. However, the Economic Times reported that as of April, preliminary analyses showed positive results with no significant side effects.

The next phase of the research is reportedly to test the medicine on children between 2 and 7 who suffer from congenital anodontia.

The teams at Kitano Hospital and Kyoto University Hospital believe that it may be soon possible to grow teeth not only in people with the aforementioned conditions, but also for common conditions like tooth loss from cavities or injuries.

According to Popular Mechanics, if the latest trials are successful, the researchers believe the medicine will become available to the public for all forms of tooth loss around 2030.

The government watchdog White Coat Waste Project pulled back the curtain in 2021 on federally funded gruesome beagle experiments under the leadership of then-National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases Director Anthony Fauci. The scandal sparked a national outcry to end animal experimentation.

President Donald Trump’s administration set a goal to stop all mammalian animal testing by 2035, and on Tuesday, the Environmental Protection Agency announced significant steps to reach that objective, according to a press release obtained exclusively by Blaze News.

‘The solution is simple: Stop the money. Stop the madness!’

The EPA declared that it is expanding its approved list of “cutting-edge” alternatives to animal studies by adding 13 more new approach methods. The agency describes NAMs as “high-quality alternatives” intended to reduce animal testing, particularly on vertebrate mammals such as rabbits, mice, rats, and dogs.

The Toxic Substances Control Act “directs EPA to use NAMs whenever scientifically appropriate when evaluating chemicals, and to reduce, refine, or replace vertebrate mammal testing,” the EPA’s press release read. “Modern NAMs, including human cell models and advanced computer-based methods, help EPA identify hazards and exposures faster and often with results that are more relevant to people, not laboratory animals.”

The EPA contended that these alternative methods can reduce time and costs, as well as provide more applicable insight into how chemicals interact with the human body. The move “opens the door for innovators to bring the next generation of tools to the table,” according to the EPA.

The agency highlighted a few of those new replacement methods, including a way to evaluate eye hazards using reconstructed human cells; a process to evaluate phototoxicity using a 3D human cell-based tissue model, and combining in-chemico and in-vitro test data to “identify potential dermal sensitization hazard, dermal sensitization potency, and a quantitative point-of-departure.”

Tuesday’s announcement marks the first time the EPA has expanded its NAMs list since 2021.

The EPA also announced a streamlined process for industry stakeholders to nominate additional NAMs for consideration in pesticide and chemical assessments.

While the goal to end animal testing was initially announced during the first Trump administration, under former President Joe Biden, the phase-out deadlines were canceled, the EPA stated.

“Today’s actions get that progress back on track,” the agency declared.

The EPA stated that the Trump administration has already made measurable progress toward meeting its goal to phase out mammalian animal testing, including implementing the agency’s first lab animal adoption program in April 2025 and using alternative methods in cancer evaluations for dibutyl phthalate and di(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate, which prevented an estimated 1,600 mice and rats from undergoing experiments.

“When the Trump administration makes a commitment, we deliver. With today’s announcement, we’re accelerating the shift to modern, gold-standard science — without the use of animal testing — by using new, innovative methods to review chemicals,” EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin stated. “By broadening high-quality alternatives and inviting strong new candidates, we can deliver faster, more protective decisions while reducing animal testing.”

Anthony Bellotti, founder and president of White Coat Waste, commended Zeldin and the EPA for honoring their commitment to reduce animal testing.

“Earlier this year, White Coat Waste proudly joined EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin to restore the historic Trump-era plan to phase out animal testing by 2035 after we exposed how the Biden administration quietly scrapped it behind closed doors,” Bellotti said in a statement provided to Blaze News.

He stated that WCW is leading the charge alongside Rep. Michael Cloud (R-Texas) to “eliminate outdated EPA red tape that forces companies to poison puppies in expensive, ineffective, government-mandated pesticide and chemical tests.” Bellotti was referring to the Fiscal Year 27 Interior-EPA Appropriations bill, which includes WCW-backed language to defund dog testing mandates for pesticides and chemicals. The House is scheduled to vote on the bill on Wednesday.

“Taxpayers shouldn’t be forced to bankroll big-government bureaucrats who mandate beagle torture, butcher bunnies, force animals to inhale firearm emissions in bizarre gun-control experiments, or make animals eat lard and breathe smog,” Bellotti continued. “The solution is simple: Stop the money. Stop the madness!”
