Data gaps in the US govt’s SEER cancer registry disproportionately involve patients at rural and safety-net hospitals—potentially distorting prognosis, AI predictive modeling, and even clinical decision-making.

The 2025 PIT count results are five months late. The results impact how states shape their homelessness policies, and how funding is allocated. “This is the latest any point-in-time count has ever come out, including when it was delayed during COVID,” said Jesse Rabinowitz. buff.ly/UV5rsDI

This video on the rise of Russ Vought is based on scores of interviews, thousands of pages of emails and dozens of hours of videos and recordings of private briefings given by Vought, most of which have not been previously reported.

Dr. Rubeliz Bolivar Barrios has been released! She should never have been locked away by ICE. As an emergency and trauma doctor, she served patients in South Texas with dedication. I am grateful that she will be reunited with her 5 year-old daughter Milena and husband.

This week, the Trump administration repealed safe minimum staffing rules for nursing homes—and the CMS requirement that nursing homes have, well, a nurse (an RN on-site 24/7). My 2023 report on the nursing home staffing crisis in New Mexico: nmindepth.com/2023/everywh...
