‘A crisis in the making’: Nebraska races to impose work requirements on Medicaid The state’s May 1 enforcement will be a test case for what could happen nationwide in January.

Medicaid work requirements are going national in 2027.

Nebraska's early start on May 1 will offer a high-profile test for the policy Republicans have championed.

Folks on the ground fear tens of thousands will lose insurance.

A Nebraska hospital in peril shows how a Republican-led rural health fund is coming up short It's a problem that millions of Americans in rural areas are awakening to as they realize there's no windfall coming for the vulnerable hospitals near their homes.

All but three (!) of the 1,651 refugees admitted into the United States in the three most recent months we have data are white South Africans.

For comparison, in 2024, the U.S. admitted 100,060 refugees. It's an explicit white supremacist project.

I’m so glad somebody directly estimated this. It’s even more extreme on a per capita basis. The average American retiree gets more than 10x more public spending than the average young person.

Giving farmers a bailout because of tariffs is not even robbing Peter to pay Paul, its robbing Peter to pay Peter.

The worst part, you take more money from Peter than you give back (the $12B is not nearly enough to make farmers whole).
