Missed the weekend headlines? We got you! 🗞️

Missed the weekend headlines? Here are the three stories that you might have missed but need to know. A resident in Cookanino County has died from pneumonic plague, marking the first recorded death in that area since 2007. The plague is a rare but serious respiratory illness caused by the same bacteria that triggered the black plague in 14th century Europe, killing tens of millions. Though today, it's treatable with antibiotics. According to the CDC, the US sees about only seven cases per year, mostly in western states like Arizona. A devastating wildfire has destroyed the historic Grand Canyon Lodge, a designated national historic landmark since 1937. Sparked by lightning on July 4th, the Dragon Bravo fire has destroyed over 5,000 acres. Officials say 50 to 80 structures were lost due to a chlorine gas leak at a nearby water treatment plant. Fire personnel had to evacuate from critical zones. No injuries or deaths have been reported, although several parts of the park have been closed until further notice. A new report confirms that several of former President Biden's final pardons were authorized using an autopen, a device that replicates a person's signature. Internal emails show that White House aids finalized the clemency list and approved the use of the autopen to make the pardons official. President Trump has since launched an investigation into whether the move was legal, claiming it could point to the misuse of presidential authority. One top aid Anthony Bernal has been subpoenaed and is expected to testify later this week. That's it for this weekend's stories.
