A bridge designed to help mountain lions and other wildlife cross California's 101 freeway was originally expected to be mostly privately funded. The total cost of the project, which is still unfinished, has since grown to $114M, with the public now "on the hook for a large portion of it," according to a statement on the Wallis Annenberg Bridge Crossing website. "We are not ATMs. We are citizens. And we deserve to know where our money went," says petition starter Aaron Bergh. Bergh, a California resident, has launched a petition calling for a full independent audit of every dollar and contract spent on the project before more public funds are released. The petition is at Change.org/CABridge. 📸: 101wildlifecrossing(dot)org #california #newsom #wildlife #wallisannenberg #animals

Over 90,000 fans are calling on Paramount to give "The Legend of Aang: The Last Airbender" a theatrical release. The first-ever animated feature from the Nickelodeon franchise was pulled from Paramount's theatrical slate last December and leaked online earlier this month. The leak has led fans to continue to push back on the decision, arguing a theatrical release would honor both the franchise's legacy and the passion of its creators.

Appie, a four-year-old Belgian Malinois with the Fort Lauderdale Police Department, was shot while chasing a suspect. He broke his arm and needed five hours of surgery. A Change.org petition is calling on the Fort Lauderdale Police Department to retire Appie, arguing he cannot consent to the risks of returning to duty and urging a shift toward technology like drones and robots instead of risking the lives of more dogs.

Correction: There’s a typo in the video—“direclty” should read “directly.” To clarify, President Trump responded directly to Kimmel’s comments.

Last week, Jimmy Kimmel joked during his Thursday night monologue that Melania Trump had "a glow like an expectant widow." The joke came just days before a gunman attempted to breach security at the White House Correspondents' Dinner, where President Trump was in attendance. Both President Trump and Melania have responded directly to Kimmel's comments, with Trump calling the joke "a despicable call to violence." Now, a petition is calling on ABC and Disney to remove Kimmel, or publicly explain why they won't. Petition link below ⬇️ #JimmyKimmel #Trump #WHCDinner #ABC #Disney

"In the name of national security and common sense, it's time to move forward with construction of a secure East Wing ballroom," a new petition reads. On April 25, shots were fired outside the Washington Hilton during the White House Correspondents' Dinner, prompting the evacuation of President Trump and senior officials. One officer was injured but is expected to recover, and the suspect is in custody. The incident is renewing scrutiny over the security of high-profile events held at outside venues — and reviving debate over the stalled East Wing ballroom project. Construction began in late 2025 but was halted by a federal judge in late March following a lawsuit from the National Trust for Historic Preservation. An appeals court has since allowed limited work to proceed ahead of a hearing scheduled for June. A petition on Change.org is now calling for construction to resume, arguing that large-scale events attended by the president and other senior officials shouldn't rely on outside venues.

Singer d4vd (David Anthony Burke) was arrested April 16 and charged days later with murder in the death of 14-year-old Celeste Rivas Hernandez.Prosecutors allege he se*ually abused her for over a year, beginning when she was 13 and he was 18, then killed her. In a hearing Thursday, per NBC News, prosecutors also revealed the singer possessed a "significant amount" of child se* abuse images on an iCloud storage account. Burke is one of the most-streamed artists of his generation, rising on TikTok. Now, Industry Blackout, an advocacy group fighting for accountability in the music industry, is calling on streaming platforms to remove his music, arguing that “continuing to stream, promote, and profit from his catalog is a choice.” Petition link in the comments ⬇️ #d4vd #music #entertainment #crime @industryblkout @ExxAlerts @CollinRugg @FearedBuck @ImMeme0 @AmericaPapaBear @validclipx @Wayno119 @Bubblebathgirl

A scientist is shot outside his home in Massachusetts. A retired Air Force general walks out of his house in New Mexico and is never seen again. An aerospace engineer disappears during a hike in California. They are among at least 10 scientists and researchers connected to sensitive U.S. defense and aerospace programs who have died or gone missing in recent years. The circumstances differ in each case, and officials say no confirmed connections have been established. Still, the incidents have drawn public attention and raised questions about whether any links exist. Now, a Change.org petition is calling on lawmakers to conduct a full, independent investigation and publicly share their findings.

More than 30 wild sloths who were shipped to the U.S. for the planned opening of Sloth World in Orlando have died. The animals were imported from South America over the last year and a half and kept in a warehouse in Orlando that was used as a holding facility for Sloth World. The sloths were kept in inadequate conditions, with unreliable power and no running water, according to reporting by Orlando Weekly and the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission. A growing number of people are signing a Change.org petition calling on Florida and federal authorities to shut down the facility, stop further imports, and enforce animal welfare laws.

Today marks 80 days since Nancy Guthrie, 84, was abducted from her home in Tucson, Arizona. The United Cajun Navy, a volunteer search and rescue organization credited with thousands of rescues during Hurricane Katrina and other natural disasters, is still waiting for permission to help find her. The group has offered a plan that would operate fully under the direction of the Pima County Sheriff's Office. A petition launched by independent investigative journalist Cherise "Pebbles" Wilson is calling on Sheriff Chris Nanos to let them help.
