Dr. Oz on Medicaid cuts: People should ‘prove that they matter’

E-mail Print PDF

Dr. OzCenters for Medicare and Medicaid Services Administrator Mehmet Oz defended President Trump’s “big, beautiful bill” over criticism that millions of people could lose health coverage, saying those who would face new work requirements should “prove that they matter.”

Oz made the comments during an interview Wednesday on Fox Business, arguing that when Medicaid was created in the 1960s lawmakers did not include work requirements because it “never dawned on anybody that able-bodied people who work would be on Medicaid.”

“We’re asking that able-bodied individuals who are able to go back to work at least try to get a job or at least volunteer or take care of loved-one who needs help or go back to school,” he said. “Do something that shows you have agency over your future.”

If Americans are willing to do that, he added, they should be able to be enrolled or stay enrolled in Medicaid.

Elon Musk Goes To War Against Big Beautiful Bill: 'KILL the BILL'

E-mail Print PDF

Elon MuskFormer White House advisor Elon Musk escalated his attacks on the big Republican bill cutting taxes and Medicaid, urging Americans to call their lawmakers to kill the bill.

“Call your Senator, Call your Congressman, Bankrupting America is NOT ok! KILL the BILL,” Musk wrote on his social media platform Wednesday.

The legislation is supposed to encompass the entirety of President Donald Trump’s domestic policy agenda for his second term, so Musk’s aggressive opposition, just one week after leaving his job as a senior adviser to the president, is striking.

A senior White House official told The Wall Street Journal Trump is “losing patience” with Musk and “confused” as to why the Tesla CEO is savaging his biggest legislative priority.

The billionaire entrepreneur ramped up his attacks on the legislation starting Tuesday, saying Republicans should be ashamed to vote for it. House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) said he was blindsided by Musk’s change of tone after they’d had a cordial conversation on Monday.

Judge BoasbergA federal judge on Wednesday ruled a group of Venezuelans deported to a Salvadoran  S. District Judge James Boasberg did not outline specific steps the administration must take, providing one week to propose how it intends to comply.

Boasberg said he realized the ruling “may implicate sensitive diplomatic or national-security concerns” but said the administration “also has a constitutional duty to provide a remedy that will ‘make good the wrong done.’”

It’s a complex scenario for the administration to carry out.

The Trump administration has argued they have no ability to secure the return of anyone held at CECOT, a notorious Salvadoran prison known by its acronym in Spanish.

Court rules re gutting ed. dept.A federal appeals court has declined to lift a judge's order blocking President Donald Trump's administration from carrying out his executive order to dismantle the U.S. Department of Education and requiring it to reinstate employees who were terminated in a mass layoff.

The Boston-based 1st U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals on June 4 rejected the Trump administration's request to put on hold an injunction issued by a lower-court judge last week at the urging of several Democratic-led states, school districts and teachers' unions.

The U.S. Department of Justice had asked for a swift ruling from the 1st Circuit so that it could promptly take the case up to the 6-3 conservative majority U.S. Supreme Court if the appeals court did not rule in its favor.

Trump bans Harvard from admitting new international students

E-mail Print PDF

Harvard U pres.President Donald Trump has revoked Harvard University's permission to host incoming international students, the latest escalation in an ongoing battle between the White House and the country's oldest university.

In an executive order issued June 4, Trump declared that Harvard's admission of international students represents a threat to the United States. Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem had previously threatened to halt Harvard's international program, but a federal judge temporarily blocked her from following through.

In his new order, Trump listed a litany of grievances against the university, which he accuses of failing to protect Jewish students from pro-Palestinian protesters. He also noted that Harvard has long used race as a factor in admissions, which led the Supreme Court in 2023 to strike down race-based admissions policies nationwide.
