Texas hospitals must now ask patients whether they’re in the U.S. legally. Here’s how it works.

@AssociatedPress reports: "Critics fear the change could scare people away from hospitals in Texas, even though patients are not required to answer the questions to receive medical care. The mandate is similar to a policy that debuted last year in Florida."

For anyone who looks to Scandinavia as the social model they'd prefer to the (continuing) mid-Atlantic model (part European/part American) the UK currently tries (but often fails) to make work.... the key issue is how is that social provision & social structure funded?

Answer: by a much higher proportion of national income flowing through the state ... so, the transition to a Scandinavian model would involve very significant (perhaps welcome) shifts in the UK's political economy!

"But new data reveal that #Trump was the one whose #immigration policies damaged the country’s #security. In fact, he released more convicted criminals into the #UnitedStates than his successor....

when it comes to the small percentage of noncitizens who do commit crimes, Trump did not prioritize removing them during his term in office. In fact, he explicitly deprioritized them."

"Rising Authoritarianism and Plutocracy Are a Dangerous Mix for Press Freedom."

Press freedom in the United States showed the world its Achilles heel this week with Jeff Bezos decision.

A two-level, oligarchic economy is in the making. Hungary and India both once had freewheeling, raucous media traditions. But as they fell from full democracies to only “partly free” in Freedom House rankings – the media became cowed.

So the world's richest man is saying "ordinary people" will experience temporary hardship under Trump's economic plans. I haven't heard that from the Harris/Walz ticket. 🤔

Was there no one else but the world's richest man available to deliver this message? How many of you would consider yourselves "ordinary people?"

I myself am pretty ordinary.
