oh hey look it’s the thing literally everyone said would happen
Two months after President Donald Trump signed an executive order restricting H-1B visas, soaring costs are roiling rural health care facilities that have long struggled to find staff.
Rural America relies on foreign doctors. Trump’s visa fee shuts them out.
The Trump administration’s demand for companies to pay a $100,000 fee to hire an immigrant worker using an H1B visa has created turmoil among rural health providers.

A Supreme Court that overturns Humphrey's Executor and 90 years of precedent to enable Donald Trump's corrupt march toward oligarchy is simply not a sustainable or legitimate institution.

Pediatrician perspective on recent ACIP meeting:
1. A local large hospital system has already stated that they don't plan to change their protocols. Cleveland Clinic hospitals deliver 16,000 babies per year and them making this statement is important in establishing "standard of care".

Frank Sinatra almost got into a fist fight with Bing Crosby on the set of High Society to defend the dignity of Louis Armstrong, who was added to the production due to Sinatra’s advocacy. It’s not hard to find PSAs for tolerance that Sinatra filmed!

Our kids were little, and we lived in Malaysia, when current HepB vax approved in 1986. Our doctor in KL told us how great it was for our kids to get this protection so early in life. I got my shot too. Deb was then very sick w HepA, from trip through China. Got her shot later

It may sound radical, but if one guy has so much wealth and power that he can use the large newspaper he owns to publicly threaten to ruin a service we all rely on, presumably as a bargaining tactic to get lower rates, we probably need to tax that guy until he can't do that anymore.
Exclusive: Amazon has long been USPS’s top customer, providing over $6 billion in annual revenue in 2025.
But Amazon may give up its long-standing partnership with USPS to deliver packages itself, which could spell disaster for the mail agency.
