Welcome to the Daily Briefing. Start the morning with these reads:
Nicole Fallert<\/a><\/strong><\/em> here, bringing you the news to know on Thursday, from a threat to America’s cattle industry to still no winner in some of California’s June 2 primaries.
Just a day after saying there are no cases of a parasitic fly in the U.S., the\u00a0U.S. Department of Agriculture\u00a0says a case may have been detected<\/a> in South Texas, with the potential to impact Texas’s\u00a0$15 billion cattle industry.
Lawmakers and federal officials have traded barbs<\/a> over whether the country is prepared: USDA Secretary Brooke Rollins said a social media post by a “very well-intentioned” Texas legislator about a confirmed New World screwworm case was false. But then Texas Agriculture Commissioner Sid Miller also\u00a0issued a statement Wednesday evening, criticizing the USDA’s “slow, bureaucratic and incomplete response” to the screwworm threat.
Entertainment<\/span><\/strong>
The 25th<\/sup>\u00a0installment of the Tribeca Festival runs June 3-14 throughout New York City, boasting a tremendous music slate<\/a>, with icons including\u00a0Madonna,\u00a0Earth, Wind & Fire<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Peter Frampton\u00a0premiering music films.
NBA Finals<\/span><\/strong>
Suddenly New York City feels like one big, loud family<\/a>. The\u00a0Knicks are in the NBA Finals for the first time since 1999<\/a>, opening last night with Game 1 against the\u00a0San Antonio Spurs, a thrilling, back-and-forth\u00a0105-95 win<\/a>\u00a0to take an early lead in the best-of-7 series. The city hasn\u2019t had a moment like this in 27 years<\/a>. And it shows<\/a>.
