I do not meet Medicaid requirements, but my healthcare premiums became affordable when Missouri expanded Medicaid.
Medicaid cuts will impact my insurance. It will impact my rural hospital. It will impact my life.

Pam Bondi today: There is no Epstein client list and no "further disclosure" of Epstein-related material "would be appropriate or warranted."

FEMA will no longer go door-to-door to assist disaster victims
The move, says one agency worker, will “severely hamper our ability to reach vulnerable people.”

The Heritage Foundation's Project 2025 called for dismantling the NOAA, which provides warnings of natural disasters, such as the deadly floods in Texas. The irony is that Heritage wanted these cuts because it’s angry that NOAA helps prove the reality of climate change--the thing causing floods.

NEW: The Acting Director of the Immigration Courts issues a new memo purporting to authorize immigration judges to deny asylum applications without ever having a hearing.
It's not clear that she has legal authority to do this; as Director, she isn't permitted to set precedent.

There are some very bad stories going around about the Mahmoud Kahlil case. The hearing today was before an immigration judge — which is located within the Justice Department. They are NOT a "federal judge" in the sense that anyone reading at least one nationwide story saying so thinks of it.

The United States government kidnapped and disappeared Abrego Garcia and sent him to El Salvador, without due process.
As of today, the DOJ is defying the judge's order asking for his whereabouts and to facilitate his immediate return.
This is next level authoritarianism.
