After the assassination of Melissa Hortman it’s not hard to understand why a woman in Minnesota would be afraid of a man in a mask who says he’s a cop.

Reports also have said that the family had to check with ICE/Immigration to see if THEY had kidnapped her. Immigration denies they have her, but, ya know, do they admit to disappearing ANYone?

Sounds great except that with Trump's Dept of Education slashing school loan amounts for post grad nurses and other PROFESSIONALS, there will be fewer of them to go serve in these rural areas. Any HHS funding/rollout means nothing.
Texas will get the biggest portion of the federal government's first rollout of the Rural Health Transformation Program, which was created in tandem with legislation slashing Medicaid funding.

New: Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton and state Sen. Angela Paxton agreed to unseal records in their divorce after several media organizations, including the Texas Tribune, sued to make the records available to the public.

I was among the many, many Gen Xers who skipped out of school that day to watch what was to *us*, the wedding of the century.
People use the word Icon way too much, but Anthony Geary was a Soap Opera Icon, Luke and Laura's wedding had 30 million viewers at 3:00 PM RIP

President Biden did SO much during his term to help nurses and the healthcare field.
Only to have this demented, misogynistic, evil weasel undo everything that was done. 😡

The US administration's proposals to exclude nursing from its list of professional degrees will restrict access to student loans, leaving many students unable to pursue a nursing career.

This is the wrong approach and we will always defend those who sit at the heart of every health and care system.

Big takeaway from nursing graduate programs not being on the DOE professional list. They NEVER updated the ORIGINAL 1965 list. Given how the nursing profession has expanded in the last *60 years*, why has no DOE/administration updated the damn list during those 60 years? So yet another dumbass
November 25, 2025 at 1:52 AM
Amazing to see some people twist into a pretzel to justify removing post-grad nursing degrees from the professional list. One "justification": They won't earn as much as MDs so they won't be able to repay the higher loan amount. Theology higher degree pay isn't equal to MD pay, either.
November 25, 2025 at 12:28 AM
This. All of this. To non-healthcare folks, note that the phrase "mandated reporters" = healthcare workers are *required* to report signs of...child sexual abuse & exploitation, human trafficking, and more. Going by the comment sections on healthcare worker related social media accounts,
This is the most complete list I've seen of the programs likely to have federal student loan offers reduced should reclassification go unchallenged.

Note that outside of professions that mandate reporting, the most commonly pursued degree programs broadly involve digital or financial auditing.
