Dave Barry on his wife and @MiamiHerald Sportswriter @kaufsports who has paved the way for female sportswriter; a generous colleague, beautiful writer who will be missed as we continue to reel from recent cuts. davebarry.substack.com/p/mic…

Yesterday dropped in at the Kansas City Star and the feeling among colleagues after the elimination of jobs across @mcclatchy is the same: reporters feel demoralized & like we are dying a slow death. Q; If we no longer have a Miami city hall reporter can we still call ourselves Miami Herald?

So sad to see this news about my former newspaper, The Miami Herald, a place where so many excellent journalists broke stories every day.
This will be a long thread. Please stick with it. The Miami Herald, one of the premier legacy newspapers in America, laid off or wrote off more than 30 positions today – well over one-third of its editorial staff. The cuts include crucial accountability beats. (1)

Alternative cancer clinics in Tijuana are back in the news:
Hope4Cancer in Tijuana has given patients a "therapeutic vaccine" made from their own urine. Others received the "Bx Protocol," which contained nothing more than "water, bacteria, and mold." Here's my story of one family that sought treatment there: medscape.com/viewarticle/pro…

People ask why the CA vote-counting process takes so long. @Elex_Michaelson of @CNN explains it clearly here. But the short answer is the state values participation plus thorough scrutiny of ballots over speed.

These long-haul truckers based in Mexico are critical to the movement of goods across the U.S.-Mexico border. Their case before the USMCA's Rapid Response Mechanism is the first from Baja California. voiceofsandiego.org/2026/02/…

Excellent article about how Tijuana’s proposed desal project would make sewage crisis worse—and fact that Mexico has no money for sewage treatment but has $500 million for desal.

.@KPBS Listening to former staffers @HorsleyScott and @AlisonStJohn talk about their time covering San Diego. Wonderful to hear their voices again! I'd love to hear from @ckahn and @borderamy about their years of border coverage.

.@TheAtlantic Why is it I cannot access my account, nor get anyone in Customer Service? Your number 855-940-0585 says "your call cannot be completed at this time" and no one has answered my online request. How can I reach someone?

For the first time, the issue of long-haul truckers who make cross-border deliveries has come under the scrutiny of the USMCA's rapid reponse mechanism. I interview a trucker who says he was fired for trying to form an independent union. voiceofsandiego.org/2025/07/…
