One of many DK cartoons.

The cyclosporiasis outbreak appears to be the largest ever recorded in the United States, and members of Congress are now demanding answers from the CDC about whether staffing cuts, hiring freezes, and agency reorganization affected the federal response.

Lorenzo Salgado Araujo headed to work like he would any other day on July 7. An immigration agent shot and killed him in his van during an enforcement operation — and he was not the target. This is the story of his life and death. nyti.ms/3Rd4A1p

Wait! I thought MarkWayne Mullin said that his goal was to take “ICE out of the headlines.” How about stopping them from killing people and put some restraints on them? That would be even better.

🔥 A group of #Epstein survivors urges the Senate to oppose Todd Blanche’s nom to be AG in a PSA ahead of his hearing. He has not met w/them. Against the EFTA: - DOJ has not released all files - DOJ has released personal info - DOJ hasn't followed leads about Epstein pals. 📺 youtu.be/kWAL1QDNGCI?...

This cartoon captures it perfectly. The GOP's decline from Lincoln's vision of unity to today's chaos reflects a reversal of evolution. What was once about principle and leadership has devolved into a race for outrage and spectacle. History will remember how far the party strayed from its own ideals

#Australia is planing a landmark leap in #renewableenergy by constructing the world's largest #waveenergy farm, enough to power 1 million homes. Wave energy is predictable and consistent, making it one of the most reliable forms of renewable power. climate-kic.org.au/2026/04/09/w... #ActOnClimate

We're borrowing water from our kids. The corporatists want to drain it for short-term profits instead of protecting it for future Texans. Let's make sure we leave our children rivers, lakes, and aquifers.

ALERT: More trouble for Todd Blanche today. Attorneys for @katiephang.bsky.social ask Judge Emmet Sullivan to issue a $1000/day fine against Blanche until Blanche adheres to court order to release more Epstein files (Blanche refused to do so by July 2 deadline)

So… it’s been more than four months since Donald Trump said that we’d won the war with Iran, and somehow the war is still happening. Anyone else noticing this.

The Downtown Seattle Association claims taxing high earners is driving down employment in Seattle, and they point to high vacancy rates and lower total *downtown* employment to prove the point. A look at the data shows this is total BS. Here is how it works: www.theurbanist.org/op-ed-the-da...

They need to resign! Call your representative today.

Many thanks to the nice Indian chap who just helped me out on the road with a minor issue with my car. I tell ya. Bloody foreigners. Coming over here, taking time out of their day to be decent members of society.

Shout out to everyone who gathered at the corner of Pool Street and Hill Street in Biddeford, Maine! ✊

Laura Dern pays tribute to Sam Neill. “Sam was my beloved lifetime friend. He showed me the depths of loyalty, protectiveness and love, always with the driest wit. He was a true and noble gentleman, wrapped up in my dream leading man. I will love you forever, Dr. Alan Grant.”

ICE is a menace to democracy and its murderous conduct should be soberly considered. But we should also recognize that these people are weak and sad and ought to be made fun of. Read more: www.theverge.com/policy/96430...

Trump CRASHES OUT in MULTIPLE DISASTER Interviews over GOP DEATH!! #MeidasTouch

Maine is in absolute outrage! Protesters took over Senator Susan Collins’ office chanting "VOTE HER OUT" after an ICE thug brutally executed a 26-year-old Colombian man. We demand immediate accountability for this state-sponsored murder! Enough is enough!

Ana Navarro: Let’s remember that lCE has kiIIed before, just kiIIed again today. A lot of times has lied about it, has explained it in a way that does not fit the video that we see and, testimony from people on the ground. Over 52 people have died in lCE custody.

People power works. Communities across the country have already stopped more than $130 billion in AI data center projects. Texans can do the same.

I hate to say this but I agree this is what they want to do!! 😡

Lindsey Graham dies of what is rumored to be Trumpassfixia. Thank you for your attention to this matter. 🤗🤭

"Kevin Bacon and Kyra Sedgwick are proof of true love! As one of the most long-lasting Hollywood couple."

We cannot accept the reckless use of deadly force by federal agents as normal. There is a pattern of this administration misleading the public and withholding key facts after these killings.

They say books won’t change the world. Tell that to every colonizer who burned them. To every enslaved person who was punished for reading. Literacy is resistance. Literacy is liberation. The library is a battlefield.

I must’ve been going to the wrong libraries all my life.

Let’s do it. Fuck ‘em. - We can build a wall. - Remove all military bases. - Sever all rail, road and air traffic. - Forbid them from using the dollar. - No FEMA, Social Security or Welfare money. - Cancel all passport held by Texans. - Withdraw U.S. citizenship from all Texan insurrectionists .
