This is especially a problem for places like Wyoming with vast amounts of land served by small rural hospitals.
Let’s be very clear: even if you are not a Medicaid recipient, cuts to the program will impact you.
Without Medicaid funds, rural hospitals, maternity wards, and nursing homes will be shuttered.
Having private health insurance won’t do you much good when there’s nowhere to go.

Musk staffers briefly published a list of 440 properties it planned to sell, deeming them “not core to government operations.” However, the list was removed after officials were alerted that it included a complex housing a CIA facility—often referred to as the “worst-kept secret in Springfield.”

This is not normal! As if federal employees didn’t already feel threatened enough—sure, let the brown shirts have guns; that’ll certainly boost compliance.

AP is banned from WH events and all the other legacy journalists walk right in.
If this was the 60s, we know who would have been with the Freedom Riders, and who would’ve been writing about them from a safe place.
AP stands alone.

Pregnancy is considered a pre-existing medical condition if you're already pregnant when you sign up for health insurance.
However, under the Affordable Care Act, insurance companies can't deny coverage or charge more for pre-existing conditions, including pregnancy.
