Rebecca Miller said her father was on Medicaid for about two years and she served as his caretaker at his home after he was diagnosed in 2018 with Parkinson's disease, from which he died last August. About 30 days later while still mourning David Miller's passing, the 36-year-old said she received a letter from the Ohio Attorney General's Office stating her father owed $56,000 to Medicaid Estate Recovery. The Medicaid collection program was foreign to the Clinton County woman, as it is to the vast majority of people, attorneys said. The state notice was a jolt, informing Miller that her...

Bidenomics, aka the Federal government takeover of the US economy with Soviet-style economic central planning, is highly dependent on loose Federal Reserve monetary policy (Janet Yellen and Powell’s wild overreaction to the massively inappropriate Covid shutdowns), So, how is Bidenomics working out? On the bank lending front, commercial and industrial (C&I) lending growth is crashing along with bank credit growth YoY. The US Treasury 10Y-2Y yield curve remains deeply inverted at -91.031 basis points and M2 Money growth has crashed. The 30 year mortgage rate is hovering around 7.27%. And WTI Crude oil futures are up 1% this morning. The...

KEY POINTS: * New Covid vaccines are coming to the U.S. this fall — but many Americans may not take them. * Pfizer, Moderna and Novavax are slated to deliver new single-strain coronavirus shots targeting the omicron subvariant XBB.1.5 in September. * Experts told CNBC that public health officials and providers could potentially increase uptake of the shots by communicating that they will likely become a routine part of health care moving forward.

There is "no similarity" between Hillary Clinton’s email scandal and Donald Trump’s classified document scandal, according to Washington Post columnist Jonathan Capehart. Capehart addressed the comparison on Friday’s "PBS Newshour" in a panel with fellow Washington Post contributor Gary Abernathy discussing Trump’s ongoing legal issues. Host Geoff Bennett brought up the former secretary of state as both she and Trump have been accused of concealing classified information, but Capehart suggested that there was no "symmetry." "[I]f we have learned anything from the four years of Donald Trump's presidency and his campaign leading up to it and the campaign to try...

In our own time, Oneism–the pagan and occult pantheist antithesis of the Word of God–remains substantially unchanged from what they was in Paul’s time:“Paul was reasoning in the synagogue with the Jews and the God-fearing Gentiles, and in the market place every day with those who happened to be present. And also some of the Epicurean and Stoic philosophers were conversing with him. Some were saying, “What would this idle babbler wish to say?” Others, “He seems to be a proclaimer of strange deities,” – because he was preaching Jesus and the resurrection. And they took him and brought him...

Definitely they come from an multidimensional or alternative dimension. I saw one, was able to observe for a long time. When I was under it, on the highway, I said the first lines of the 91St Psalm and it disappeared immediately. A Reviewer

Trucking giant Yellow collapsed on Sunday, ceasing operations immediately and leaving some 30,000 workers without jobs. The closure is the biggest in terms of jobs and revenue in the U.S. trucking industry, according to The Wall Street Journal - which first reported its shutdown. The company, which received $700 million in federal COVID relief funds in 2020, is preparing to file for bankruptcy and is in talks to sell off all or parts of the business. The nearly 100-year-old firm is known for its competitive pricing and has more than 12,000 trucks shipping freight across the US for brands including...

German volunteers are fighting in Ukraine. Most of them, for the Russian invaders Germany’s Federal Interior Ministry has confirmed that dozens of German volunteers are fighting in the war in Ukraine, “Welt am Sonntag” reported on Saturday. In reality, their number may be higher, but data in report only pertains to individuals linked to political extremism. German security services have records of 61 people “with links to extremism or politically motivated crimes” departing from Germany, of which 39 people have left the country “with the intention of participating in hostilities.” Of these, 27 are fighting on the side of Russia...

The Justice Department on Sunday told a New York judge they do not wish to see Hunter Biden's former business associate imprisoned before he testifies about their schemes. Devon Archer is due to testify to Congress, behind closed doors, on Monday. It was suggested that the Justice Department wanted him arrested first, but on Sunday they wrote a letter clarifying that he must be free to testify before any such steps are taken. The Department of Justice sent an 'odd' letter to a judge Saturday urging an expedited sentencing for Archer - for an unrelated fraud conviction - in what...

A security guard was beaten to death by a mob of at least nine people outside a starry Hollywood nightclub which counts Tyga, Megan Thee Stallion and Wiz Khalifa as fans.

Once the...

For the last two years, the online land records page in the town of Fairfield has offered a “fraud alert” service. Anyone can sign up to see legal filings on their property. It’s part of the careful new world – but no one could anticipate the situation that’s unfolding on Sky Top Terrace, near Sacred Heart University. Dr. Daniel Kenigsberg grew up in a house his parents bought on the semicircular street in 1953, when he was a 1-year-old. After medical school in New York and residency in Maryland, he and his wife raised their two children on Long Island,...

The city of San Francisco has launched an investigation into Twitter headquarters, after a giant “X” was installed on the roof of the building without a permit amid the social media company’s ongoing rebrand. The “X” was installed on top of the building in downtown San Francisco Friday, after police stopped workers earlier this week from dismantling the Twitter sign on the side of the building, according to The Associated Press. They reportedly lacked the proper permits and had not taped off the sidewalk as a safety measure. Two new complaints were filed with the San Francisco Department of Building...

The National Park Service (NPS) is advising visitors to proceed with extra caution as two people were recently injured after interactions with wild bison at both Yellowstone National Park, and Theodore Roosevelt National Park. On Monday, a woman from Arizona was charged and gored by a bison at Yellowstone National Park. “The female was walking with another individual in a field in front of the Lake Lodge when they saw two bison," the NPS explained of the incident in a release the NPS shared. "Upon seeing them, the visitors turned to walk away from the bison. One of the bison...

16 Million Trees Cut Down to Make Way for Wind Farms, Scottish National Party RevealsNearly 16 million carbon-catching trees have been cut down in Scotland since 2000 – in order to erect carbon-saving wind turbines – the Scottish National Party (SNP) admitted last week. An estimated 15.7 million trees – or about 1,700 per day – have been cut down on public land managed by Forestry and Land Scotland, Scottish Rural Affairs Secretary Mairi Gougeon revealed in a letter to Scottish Tory MSP (Member of Scottish Parliament) Liam Kerr, who called the news “astonishing.” Sacrificing trees to build wind farms...

Ford Motor said Thursday pushed back production targets for its electric vehicles, citing slower-than-expected adoption. Ford now expects to be building EVs at a rate of 600,000 per year sometime during 2024, a delay from earlier estimates that it would reach that level by the end of 2023. The automaker had previously targeted a rate of more than 2 million per year by the end of 2026, but now says it doesn't know when it'll achieve that volume. "The transition to EVs is happening, it just may take a little longer," CFO John Lawler said following the automaker's second-quarter earnings...
