Again, new work requirements for Medicaid highlight the profits to be made from adding complexity to the safety net. Since Georgia implemented work requirements in 2020, they have spent twice as much on Deloitte consultants and administrative costs as on healthcare for people. As the other 55 states and territories are now forced to join Georgia and implement new work requirements, millions will lose their healthcare and Deloitte will cash in.

Photojournalist Aaron Marckell Williams was killed in a crosswalk as the result of a police chase over a traffic violation. DC local law had made such chases illegal - House Republicans voted to overturn that law last year.
Facebook screenshot of a post from DMV News Now with a picture of Williams smiling. 

"A DC photojournalist was run over and killed by a suspect fleeing from police near The White House in downtown Washington DC.

26 year-old Aaron Marckell Williams had been struck while crossing in the crosswalk at 16th Street and L Street NW Wednesday afternoon. 

It was later revealed that DC Police had attempted to conduct a traffic stop on the suspect, 20 year-old Santana Matthews, before he ran a red light and killed Williams. Matthews has now been charged with Second Degree Murder.

Williams was a photojournalist for the Washington Informer and was heading to a nearby church to take photos for a story.

“We are heartbroken over the loss of Marckell Williams — a talented photographer, storyteller, and beautiful soul who was once part of the Washington Informer family,” the statement from @washinformer reads. “His passion for capturing people, culture, and truth will never be forgotten.”"

Israel Bonds are debt securities issued by the State of Israel; effectively loans to the country that accrue interest. Illinois Treasurer Michael Frerichs announced the state was renewing a $15M investment in Israel bonds this past February, and purchasing $10M in new bonds this past March.
Image: A chart depicting the current interest rates of Israel Bonds for the period between 12/15/2025 and 12/31/2025.Image text:
Israel Bonds/ Development Corporation for Israel ranks among Israel’s most valued economic and strategic resources, with a record of proven success spanning nearly 75 years. Praised for its dependability, the Bonds organization has helped build every sector of Israel’s economy.

Partnering in Israel’s success story through investment in Israel bonds is global in scope. Worldwide sales have exceeded $55 billion since the first bonds were issued in 1951. Proceeds from the sale of Israel bonds have played a decisive role in Israel's rapid evolution into a groundbreaking, global leader. 

Israel Bonds also play an essential role in Israel’s economic resilience, especially  during times of emergencies.  Since the horrific attacks on October 7, 2023, Israel Bonds started a special campaign of support for Israel that generated over $5.7 billion in global investments to date.

Illinois Treasurer Michael Frerichs Announces 
Renewal of $15 Million in Israel Bonds 
Illinois State Treasurer Michael Frerichs today announced his office has renewed $15 million in Israel 
Bonds that were set to expire. 
“We continue our state’s commitment to invest in the State of Israel, one of our nation’s longest and 
most important allies,” Frerichs said. “Israel Bonds provide stable returns and are a strong investment for 
Illinois, where the program’s roots date back to the early 1950s.”
Frerichs’ office has invested in Israel Bonds since he became State Treasurer in 2015. The three 
previous State Treasurers from both political parties also invested in Israel Bonds. 
Development Corporation for Israel/Israel Bonds offers Israel Bonds in the United States. The Bonds will 
mature in five years with an interest rate of 5.68 percent, among the highest in 20 years. That outpaces a 
five-year U.S. Treasury Note by about 100 basis points, or 1.09 percentage points. 
The Treasurer’s Office renewed $10 million in bonds that were set to expire Feb. 1 and $5 million that 
were to expire May 1. The total amount invested is now $90 million, which will drop to $85 million on 
May 1. That represents less than less than ¼ of 1% of the $38.15 billion state portfolio. 
Israel has never defaulted on Israel Bonds' payments in more than 70 years. The rates are locked in, so 
any ratings downgrades do not impact Illinois’ rate of return.
The investment diversifies the state’s portfolio and draws attention to a global partnership between the 
state’s economy and the State of Israel.
Israel’s first Prime Minister, David Ben-Gurion, first considered seeking direct investment through Israel 
bonds in 1950 and the first sale in the United States was completed in 1951. 
The relationship between Illinois and Israel Bonds goes back to that beginning. Peoria resident Sam Rothberg was a founder of the Israel Bonds program.Truncated Image text:

Illinois Treasurer Michael Frerichs Announces 
Purchase of $10 Million in Israel Bonds 
Illinois State Treasurer Michael Frerichs today announced his office has purchased an additional $10 
million in Israel Bonds. 
“We continue our state’s commitment to invest in the State of Israel, one of our nation’s longest and most 
important allies,” Frerichs said. “Israel Bonds provide stable returns and are a strong investment for 
Illinois, where the program’s roots date back to the early 1950s.” 
Frerichs’ office has invested in Israel Bonds since he became State Treasurer in 2015. The three previous 
State Treasurers from both political parties also invested in Israel Bonds. 
Development Corporation for Israel/Israel Bonds offers Israel Bonds in the United States. The Bonds will 
mature in five years with an interest rate of 5.72 percent, among the highest in 20 years. That outpaces a 
five-year U.S. Treasury Note by about 159 basis points, or 1.59 percentage points. 
The total amount invested in Israel Bonds is now $100 million, which will drop to $95 million on May 1. 
That represents less than one-fourth of 1% of the $37.5 billion state portfolio. 
The Illinois State Treasurer’s Office also has invested in $15 million in Republic of Poland bonds. Treasurer 
Frerichs announced the first-ever purchase of the Polish bonds on Monday, Casimir Pulaski Day. 
One of the benchmarks is that a nation must meet its bond payment obligations for at least 25 years, which 
the Republic of Poland has done. In addition, State Treasurer’s Office guidelines require that the bonds 
must be rated in the three highest classifications of at least two rating services. Poland maintains those 
ratings from Moody’s, S&P, and Fitch. 
Israel has never defaulted on Israel Bonds' payments in more than 70 years. The rates are locked in, so any 
ratings downgrades do not impact Illinois’ rate of return.

🚨BIG changes happening -- ICE leadership is being purged tonight. The old guard, which prioritized targeted enforcement operations aimed at people with criminal records, is being replaced with Border Patrol and Gregory Bovino's "Midway Blitz" style. Think things are bad now? It'll get worse.
Bill Melugin
@BillMelugin_
BREAKING: Per four senior DHS & Trump admin sources, a mass removal of ICE leadership around the country is underway, with up to 12 ICE field office chiefs being removed & reassigned in an effort to increase deportation numbers. I'm told the move is spearheaded by Corey Lewandowski, and a handful of the ICE Chiefs will likely be replaced by Border Patrol & CBP officials, some of whom will be hand-picked by aggressive & controversial Border Patrol Commander Greg Bovino. I'm told some of the ICE leadership removed from their positions include the ICE Field Office Directors in:

- Los Angeles
- Phoenix
- Philadelphia
- Denver
- El Paso
- San Diego
- Seattle/Portland
- New Orleans

Border Patrol officials taking over ICE leadership positions would be extremely significant, as Border Patrol and ICE do different things, and I've done numerous ride-alongs/embeds with both.Generally speaking, ICE typically conducts very targeted operations, largely going after criminal illegal aliens or those with deportation orders, but almost always knowing who they are targeting for arrest, often conducting surveillance to learn their schedules before and waiting hours before arresting them if needed.

Border Patrol, under Trump 2.0, while sometimes doing their own targeted operations, has been extremely aggressive and has been at the forefront of some of the most controversial immigration enforcement operations we've seen so far, carrying out roving patrols in Los Angeles, Chicago, etc, often at Home Depot, car washes, flea markets etc, leading to a handful of federal judges around the country issuing injunctions against them. A majority of the viral videos you see online are Border Patrol agents, including the use of a Trojan horse style Penske moving truck at a Los Angeles Home Depot, an operation organized by Bovino. 

ICE often gets blamed for what Border Patrol does, as the media and activists often cannot tell the difference between federal agents, and everyone is called "ICE". I'm told there are growing concerns about the political and PR fallout associated with some of the roving patrols Border Patrol is conducting as lawsuits continue to stack up and mid-terms approach next year. I'm told there is significant friction within different wings of DHS and the administration, with Border Czar Tom Homan & ICE Director Todd Lyons preferring to prioritize targeting criminal aliens & the "worst of the worst" or those with deportation orders, while DHS Secretary Kristi Noem, Corey Lewandowski, and BP Commander Bovino prefer to use aggressive tactics to arrest anyone in the US illegally, including but not limited to criminals, to ramp up deportation numbers and achieve President Trump's promises of mass deportations. 

I am hearing from both sides of this friction.

One senior DHS official tells me:

"ICE started with the worst of the worst, knowing every target they are hitting, but since Border Patrol started in LA in June, we've (DHS) lost our focus, going too hard, too fast, with limited prioritization. It's getting numbers, but at what cost?".

Border Patrol agents I've talked to defend their tactics, with one telling me:

"What did everyone think mass deportations meant? Only the worst? Tom Homan has said it himself, anyone in the US illegally is on the table."It's quite a situation, as both sides of this are on the same team, with the same end goals, but different perspectives on how to get there. 

Another DHS official confirmed the personnel changes to me on deep background, adding that the moves are based on performance and doing what is needed to achieve the best results. 

Official statement to 
@FoxNews
 via 
@TriciaOhio
:

"While we have no personnel changes to announce at this time, the Trump Administration remains laser focused on delivering results and removing violent criminal illegal aliens from this country."

The University of Virginia has capitulated to Trump on transgender and race (affirmative action) issues. The details are currently sparse, but reporting suggests they've agreed to define trans people out of existence and ban trans students from facilities. www.politico.com/news/2025/10...
That includes any race-based scholarships and programs, including any promotion of external scholarships that consider race, and DEI trainings and workshops. Institutions were also told they should no longer prioritize “underrepresented groups” for admissions or hiring, and they must prohibit transgender students from playing on sports teams and using facilities designated for women and girls.

Hi, I'm the ProPublica reporter who's been tracking an unusual stat: U.S. citizens grabbed by immigration agents. I did it because the government isn’t. This is what I found.
White words on a black background read:

50+ 
Immigration agents have the authority to detain whom they reasonably suspect are in the country illegally. We found more than 50 Americans who were held after agents questioned their citizenship. They were almost all Latino.

~130
Agents also can arrest citizens who allegedly interfered with or assaulted officers. We compiled cases of about 130 Americans, including a dozen elected officials, accused of assaulting or impeding officers. 

~20
Among the citizens detained are nearly 20 children, including two with cancer.
