Private insurers use deceptive tactics to promote Medicare Advantage plans that leave patients without the care they deserve and cheat taxpayers out of billions. Five colleagues and I urged @CMSgov to boost data collection, improve transparency, and hold insurers accountable.

Editor's note: A judge ordered our newsroom to turn over privileged documents regarding our Pulitzer Prize-winning investigative reporting. This afternoon, we've appealed that order to the Mississippi Supreme Court. mississippitoday.org/2024/06…

The publication of @bloodinquiry’s report today was historic. Finally, after decades of campaigning, we have the truth. The 2,500 page report sets out a story of devastating failure and cover up. Action must follow and I look forward to hearing details of compensation tomorrow.

'The infected blood victims didn't have any informed consent. They didn't know the sourcing of the blood.' @kellyduda8 tells @skysarahjane that the 'Arkansas prison system harvested blood from inmates on a regular basis.' #SJUK trib.al/Yxyn7GH 📺 Sky 501 and YouTube

I work in a place that teaches hate. The Capitol has 12 Confederate and only 3 Black statues, and makes no reference to the work that Black Americans did to build this country. That has to change.

For the first time, Greg Edgreen, who ran the Pentagon's investigation into mysterious neurological symptoms suffered by American officials – known as Havana Syndrome – speaks out publicly. He says top officials are “being neutralized.” cbsn.ws/4aj8o5Q

Today, as I do every Thursday, I asked the Government for a Statement on their progress compensating victims of the Infected Blood Scandal. Those infected & affected are concerned that the latest ‘tour’ announcement will simply delay compensation further. We need action now ⬇️

Today I will be presenting a petition in Parliament that: 👉 Declares those infected and affected by the contaminated blood scandal have waited far too long for redress. 👉 Urges the Government to implement Sir Brian Langstaff’s recommendations without delay.

I have a great idea for a Halloween costume for everyone ... Go as Gov Sanders' missing lectern! It can also become a mascot for her administration! Maybe it could even start showing up at her public events! Heck, even at her press conferences!

Campaigners are calling on the government to set up a scheme to pay full compensation to those infected by contaminated blood before the autumn. But Prime Minister Rishi Sunak says they'll wait for the inquiry's findings to be published. @ajjenkins reports #5news

”The famous Italian diver Enzo Maiorca dove into the sea of ​​Syracuse and was talking to his daughter Rossana who was aboard the boat. Ready to go in, he felt something slightly hit his back. He turned and saw a dolphin. Then he realized that the dolphin did not want to play but to express something. The animal dove and Enzo followed. At a depth of about 12 meters, trapped in an abandoned net, there was another dolphin. Enzo quickly asked his daughter to grab the diving knives. Soon, the two of them managed to free the dolphin, which, at the end of the ordeal, emerged, issued an "almost human cry" (describes Enzo). (A dolphin can stay under water for up to 10 minutes, then it drowns.) The released dolphin was helped to the surface by Enzo, Rosana and the other dolphin. That’s when the surprise came: she was pregnant! The male circled them, and then stopped in front of Enzo, touched his cheek (like a kiss), in a gesture of gratitude and then they both swam off. Enzo Maiorca ended his speech by saying: “Until man learns to respect and speak to the animal world, he can never know his true role on Earth.”

Yusef Salaam's victory in a Harlem City Council election is as much a poetic correction as it is a political success, Ginia Bellafante writes. He found it hard to rebuild his life after his conviction was overturned. Now he stands to take office next year. nyti.ms/3PGpFy7

Justice Alito justified his estimated $100k ride on a billionaire’s plane for a luxury fishing trip to Alaska, saying the seat was vacant. Turns out the seat was intended for an eight year-old Make-a-Wish Foundation who always wanted to catch a halibut.
