Democrats Fearmonger About Medicaid Cuts While Battling To Keep A Million Illegals Enrolled

Image
WASHINGTON—About 1.4 million illegal immigrants are enrolled in Medicaid, something House Republicans hope to change. In May 2025, House Republicans introduced a proposal aiming to remove approximately 1.4 million undocumented immigrants from Medicaid coverage. This initiative is part of a broader legislative effort to reform Medicaid and reduce federal spending. Conservative lawmakers argue that taxpayer-funded healthcare should prioritize American citizens and legal residents, especially as the national debt continues to climb and U.S. entitlement programs face long-term sustainability issues. They emphasize that allowing undocumented immigrants to remain on Medicaid—directly or through state-level loopholes—undermines the integrity of federal aid programs and incentivizes illegal immigration. According to proponents of the bill, restricting access sends a clear message that public assistance should not reward those who violate immigration law, especially at the expense of vulnerabl...

Bioengineered Ticks Make You Allergic to RED MEAT To Fight Climate Change

Image
Dr. S. Matthew Liao, a professor of philosophy and bioethics at New York University, has proposed the concept of "human engineering" as a potential strategy to address climate change. In his 2012 paper titled "Human Engineering and Climate Change," co-authored with Anders Sandberg and Rebecca Roache, Liao explores biomedical modifications to humans aimed at reducing our environmental impact.   One proposal involves inducing an aversion to red meat consumption. Given that livestock farming contributes significantly to greenhouse gas emissions, Liao suggests that pharmacologically inducing mild intolerance to meat could decrease its consumption. This could be achieved through methods such as "meat patches," analogous to nicotine patches, which would stimulate the immune system to reject certain animal proteins, leading to a reduced desire for meat.   Another idea is to reduce average human body size, as smaller individuals generally require fewer resource...

UNRWA Confirms Over 300 Staff Killed Amid Israeli Strikes in Gaza, Escalating Humanitarian Crisis

Image
In May 2025, the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA) announced that over 300 of its staff members have been killed since the beginning of Israel’s military campaign in Gaza in October 2023. UNRWA Commissioner-General Philippe Lazzarini stated that the majority were teachers, medics, and aid workers , many of whom died with their families while sheltering in or near UN facilities. This figure marks the highest staff death toll in UN history and highlights the intensity of the conflict. UNRWA operates essential services across Gaza and serves as a cornerstone for refugee support, including schools, clinics, and food aid programs. Since the start of the war, the majority of Gaza’s population has become dependent on emergency humanitarian assistance. Lazzarini said the level of devastation is beyond what the agency has ever experienced, with over 70% of homes damaged or destroyed and thousands of civilians displaced. He emphasized that ...
