Waar de verkiezingen nooit over mogen gaan

RFK Jr. made Cyclospora tracking optional, gutting a CDC program used to detect outbreaks. Now cyclosporiasis has hit 31 states. That's what happens when you dismantle the systems designed to keep us safe. www.npr.org/2026/07/12/n...

It’s not about the burritos. This year’s spread of Cyclospora – better known as the ‘explosive diarrhea parasite’ – is a symptom of federal budget cuts and a scary vision of how America deals with a health crisis in the future. Read more from @gabydvj.bsky.social: buff.ly/3ZYSuUK

Pave paradise, put up a data centre...

Kent Carpenter, an American marine biologist, was murdered in the Philippines. He led the Global Marine Species Assessment, where they assessed nearly 20,000 marine fishes, corals, and other marine species for the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species. 🌊

In Ireland, data centres used 22% of the country’s total energy in 2024 – more than all urban households combined in that same year. An incredible 80% of Dublin's electricity use can be attributed to data centres. Via the excellent @eurcorrespond.bsky.social. europeancorrespondent.com/en

En niet groene stroom inkopen, dat zou niet helpen. Ik dacht altijd dat dat gebruikte water gewoon rivierwater was als koelwater. Nee. Het is kraanwater dat ze vernevelen en het verdampt. KRAANWATER HALLO

A 3-year-old girl watched ICE murder her father yesterday. We all watched Sebastian Guerrero’s final moments through our phones. We can scroll away — but Sebastian’s 3-year-old daughter cannot.

Truly awful that this loathsome individual was re elected to the presidency as a felon, and is now an adjudicated rapist who has finally paid his court ordered penalty for defaming the woman he raped. How much lower can we fall?

"Zo masseert het ministerie Nederland stapje voor stapje het idee in dat #kerncentrales in Zeeland welkom zijn. Wat daarbij niet wordt verteld, is dat inmiddels al vrijwel zeker is dat de locatie waar bijna iedereen aan denkt - Borssele - niet groot genoeg is." www.pzc.nl/terneuzen/ka...

In the United States, roughly 30% to 40% of the entire food supply goes uneaten

On Monday, Joan Sebastian Guerrero was shot and killed by ICE agents in Biddeford, Maine. Reports say Guerrero was authorized to legally work in the US and not even ICE's target. @annayeo.bsky.social was on the ground Tuesday in Biddeford and spoke with locals—including one man who knew Guerrero.

Ziekenhuizen en artsen krijgen miljoenen van farmaceuten, betalingen opnieuw gestegen

Infectious diseases like cyclospora and measles are spreading because the people in charge don't care about public health. That's why we need more scientists and/or healthcare professionals in the room. That's why I'm running.

My newly adopted dog is a rescue from an ICE abduction. ICE took the family and left the dog running loose on the streets of Houston. After 2 months, a wonderful rescue group were able to get him into a foster home. He is the sweetest,

Zogenaamd voor meer biodiversiteit maar vooral voor subsidie, liggen er bloemenranden rond percelen. De gewassen binnen de randen worden met gif bespoten. Onderzoek wijst uit dat de randen ook vergiftigd worden en daarmee ook insecten. Daarom noemt men dit schaamranden.

Ik moet eind september mijn huis uit en dus ben ik hard op zoek naar een nieuwe plek. Ken jij iets, liefst in of om Utrecht, of heb je een gouden tip? Laat het me weten! Delen = lief

Todd Gentry SEATTLE!

Die nächste #Hitzewelle ist da - und in Frankreich zerstört sie schon wieder Landwirtschaft, Infrastruktur und Leben. Aber die Regierung macht mit dem #Heizungsgesetz einen Kniefall vor der fossilen Lobby und bremst den Ausbau der Erneuerbaren Energien. Wie sollen wir das unseren Kindern erklären?

Fewer people are posting on social media, for understandable reasons. Most sites are algorithm-focused, pushing garbage into your feed instead of what you want to see. Social media companies only have themselves to blame for this boring, toxic mess. ca.pcmag.com/social-media...

Security camera footage sheds a tiny bit more light on the murder of Araujo in Houston Texas. Surprise surprise ICE lied

Dag 536 van de Verenigde Staten met een extreemrechtse en fascistische president.

A jury agreed that Trump raped a woman and lied about it. Republicans are the biggest hypocrites in history.

The family is denied release of Lorenzo's body but they haven't been able to receive it as all of his personal id & effects were removed so hospital had to receive him as a #JohnDoe so oldest son Ronaldo is trying to get power of attorney so he can claim body The family knows that is Lorenzo 💔😪

No credible threat. No plan. No accountability. Just a president who rushed to war amidst his own scandals—all while raking in $4 billion for himself and leaving Americans to pay the price.

This woman contracted polio as a child about two years before a vaccine became available and spent much of her life in and out of an iron lung to survive. I truly can't fathom anti-vaxxers who seem happy to resurrect these diseases. people.com/the-last-us-...

“The news cycle has moved on. We have not.” In their own words, how people in Minneapolis, New Orleans, and Los Angeles are still showing up for their neighbors in the fight against ICE.

In een buitenwijk van Kansas City duiken kerkgangers onder voor Ice. ‘Ze pakken tijdens het WK meer mensen op dan ervoor’

The 52-year-old Mexican immigrant was shot and killed by an ICE agent in Texas this week in the latest fatal incident linked to the Trump adminstration’s immigration crackdow

The Trump regime redefined “harm” under the Endangered Species Act, removing protections for habitats. This change allows activities like farming, drilling, mining, real estate development and other activities in endangered species’ habitats, potentially accelerating their extinction.

This should horrify all of us! Women in ICE detention underwent invasive medical procedures without informed consent. Senator Jon Ossoff’s bipartisan investigation called the findings “nightmarish & disgraceful” Everyone deserves dignity, bodily autonomy & human rights! #SheShed #ViVaHerAlliance

Sickening and un-American. Watch authoritarianism work.

‘Als het een keer echt misgaat in Europa, krijgen wij hier hongersnood.’ Mona Keijzer gebruikt dit als argument tegen het Nederlandse stikstofbeleid. Maar minder vee blijkt juist goed voor onze voedselzekerheid. Hoe dat zit, lees je hier 👇

Just more horrors. Cops kill another dog while searching for someone not even at the home they were at. A highly trained service dog was not a threat to police but that doesn't matter, they killed her anyway. Why do cops do this? Less paperwork then killing people? www.wsbtv.com/news/local/c...

Schokkend dit. Ook de omvang vind ik onthutsend. Iedereen die in deze oorlog partij kiest voor Rusland, zou zich alleen al om deze reden moeten verantwoorden. Ethisch volledig onacceptabel. Rapport: Rusland hersenspoelt 1,6 miljoen Oekraïense kinderen op systematische wijze - nos.nl/l/2622496
