Telehealth Services could end unless Congress acts
When the Trump administration loosened telemedicinei restrictions for Medicare patients in March 2020, the move was seen as temporary.
The COVID-19 pandemic was in its early days.
Making it easier for seniors to seek care virtually — whether through a video conference or an old-fashioned phone call — seemed like a straightforward way to maintain access during a crisis.
Five years later, telehealth has become an integral part of our nation's healthcare infrastructure. In many cases, it can be a more convenient, lower-cost, and equally effective alternative to in-person care.
Lawmakers have heard as much from their constituents --- and have extended Medicare's telehealth flexibilities repeatedly, most recently through the American Relief Act, which was signed into law in December of 2024. Click here to read more.
Michigan lawmaker asks for $25 million taxpayer money for invisible group
Rep. Cynthia Neeley, D-Flint, has submitted a $25 million earmark request from Michigan’s next budget for an organization that has no physical presence, IRS recognition or online footprint.
“This $25 million capital and program investment will support the redevelopment of a major community facility to serve inner city K-12 grade students of color and adult learners who need GED services including coaching and mentoring,” Neeley wrote in her request.
A search of the IRS database for tax-exempt organizations shows no record for MYhub Life Empowerment Center. A search of Michigan’s business registry also returned no results, suggesting that the entity is not registered in the state.
“The project does not violate Article IV, Section 30 of the Michigan Constitution, as it serves a demonstrable public purpose,” the request form states. Click here to read more.
DC Police falsified crime data
DC Fraternal Order of Police chairman Gregg Pemberton said in July that Metropolitan Police Department leaders pressure officers to falsify data and artificially deflate crime statistics
After President Donald Trump announced a federal crackdown on lawlessness in Washington, D.C., mainstream media outlets and Democratic politicians claimed violent crime in the nation’s capital has "fallen sharply" and has reached a "30-year low." Their claims, though, rest on questionable police data that local leaders are accused of falsifying to play down the city's violent crime problem. The Metropolitan Police Department recently suspended a commander for allegedly manipulating that data, a fact the mainstream reports excluded.
Politico reported Monday that "crime in Washington hit a 30-year low last year" despite the president "declaring a public safety emergency in the District" and attempting to "cast the city as dangerous. Click here to read more.
ICE Agents Arrest Illegal Alien Convicted Killers, Child Abusers, Rapists
On the same day an illegal alien MS-13 gang member was sentenced to life in prison without parole for raping and murdering Rachel Morin, a mother of five children, in Maryland, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents arrested convicted killers, child abusers, and rapists.
“Just yesterday, Rachel Morin’s murderer — an illegal alien from El Salvador — was convicted and sentenced to life in prison without parole. The same day, ICE arrested a murderer, pedophiles, and sexual predators,” the Department of Homeland Security’s Tricia McLaughlin said in a statement:
ICE law enforcement is working around the clock to protect Americans from vile criminals who should have never been in our country in the first place. Yesterday’s arrests are yet another example of how President Trump and Secretary Noem continue to prioritize Americans over criminal illegal aliens. [Emphasis added]
Among those illegal aliens arrested by ICE agents are 69-year-old Gabriel Figueroa-Gama of Mexico and 50-year-old Rodolfo Sagastume-Avolos of Guatemala. Click here to read more.
3 things teachers unions don’t want teachers to know
Thousands of Illinois teachers have opted out of their unions in recent years.
But union myths keep many teachers from knowing the truth about how their unions spend money and what it means to opt out of membership.
Here are three things unions don’t want their members to know:
Teachers unions admit in their own federal filings to spending little on representing teachers.
Employers must treat everyone the same, regardless of union membership.
Government unions wrote the laws that require them to represent all workers, so their claims of “free riders” are false.
