it's (darkly) funny that the tech titans' politics are basically "we have no choice but to end representative government because my employees asked for a slight raise in 2020"

The president will discuss the economy, but he will also provide important updates about Hannibal Lecter's dinner plans and Arnold Palmer's substantial penis. Additionally, his team of military physicians will reveal the record-setting results of his latest cognitive testing.

The OIG & KY’s State Auditor found $800M in Medicaid waste and just dropped the report. In a state with high poverty & struggling hospitals, that’s a brutal hit if the feds claw that money back. I wonder how James Comer feels about this after backing the OBBB & its cuts.
***** OIG U.S. DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH & HUMAN SERVICES OFFICE OF INSPECTOR GENERAL November 7, 2025 TO: Daniel Brillman Deputy Administrator and Director Center for Medicaid and CHIP Services FROM: John D. Hagg/S/ Acting Deputy Inspector General for Audit Services SUBJECT: Office of Inspector General's Partnership With the Office of the Kentucky State Auditor of Public Accounts: State Auditor's Report How Kentucky Failed to Prevent Over $800 Million of Medicaid Waste (A-09-23-02005) This memo transmits the findings of the Office of the Kentucky State Auditor of Public Accounts' (APA's) special examination report How Kentucky Failed to Prevent Over $800 Million of Medicaid Waste, issued September 17, 2025. The APA conducts audits of accounts and financial transactions of all spending agencies of Kentucky. The APA's mission is to help reduce waste, fraud, abuse, and mismanagement and ensure that public resources are protected, accurately valued, properly accounted for, and effectively employed to improve the quality of life for all Kentuckians. This examination was conducted as part of APA's oversight of Kentucky's Medicaid program. The objective of APA's special examination was to determine whether Kentucky Medicaid made capitation payments on behalf of beneficiaries who were enrolled in Medicaid (i.e., enrollees) in more than one State during the examination period, based on a random sample and additional review of certain subgroups (e.g., deceased enrollees). As part of the Office of Inspector General's (OIG's) efforts to partner with State auditors and expand oversight coverage of the Medicaid program, OIG assisted APA with its audit by: • matching Medicaid claims from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services' (CMS's)
