"Deans of nursing schools and associations representing nurses fear the omission...will ultimately discourage people from becoming nurse practitioners...This could worsen the shortage of these critical health care providers in the United States."

Just in case the East Wing razing did not make it perfectly clear, he has no intention of leaving the WH unless it is feet first. He has a good thing going, and he will raze the country to the ground before he will die in jail.
Trump: "We can never let what happened in the 2020 election happen again. We just can't let that happen. I know Kash is working on it, everybody is working on it. And certainly Tulsi is working on it. We can't let that happen again to our country."

We literally created a tool for bullshit junk fees like this.

Go to reportmylandlord.org and we'll use your complaint to collectively pressure regulatory agencies to crackdown on these types of practices.

It's more than that — the $30 pet fee, the $50 valet trash fee, the $10 convenience fee to pay rent. These are often ways landlords seek to maximize profit (often illegally) on the backs of tenants.

It's wrong, and we need to call it out every time.

Have you ever gone to pay your rent and there's a $3 fee on top of rent? Or maybe it costs $10 to pay with a credit card? Yeah. So that convenience/junk fee is actually illegal in several states.

Landlords do this all the time — but it's often illegal and makes the lease void.

An indictment of how Rochester and Monroe County handle homelessness
Why has Rochester chosen to criminalize poverty? - Rochester Beacon
Our city is following Trump’s playbook on homelessness: Being unhoused with substance-use disorder is treated as a criminal act instead of the public health issue it is.

For those who don’t intimately understand how news works and why Bari Weiss’s unearned elevation to head of CBS News matters, I’d recommend watching this in entirety. Also, will forever point out irony of how an admitted DEI hire thinks her hire was meritorious while Black people’s aren’t.
