Fairview Health Services is suing UnitedHealthcare, saying the nation’s largest insurer is wrongly telling seniors the health system’s hospitals and clinics will be part of its Medicare Advantage network for 2027.

Fairview sues UnitedHealthcare over 2027 Medicare plan info
Nation’s largest insurer cites effort to strike an affordable contract, but the health system insists it won’t be in-network next year with UnitedHealthcare Medicare Advantage plans.

i think much of the democratic party's low ratings reflects a palpable sense that it is institutionally incapable of standing up for itself or going on the hunt

Schools in Santa Barbara are closing early this week from extreme heat. No AC. My community has the funds they need, they just need time to install the heat pumps. Plus there's enough money to electrify 200 more schools. Tell @gavinnewsom.bsky.social fund AC for kids: win.newmode.net/fund-schools

It has been criminally underreported but Kelsey Pfendler has just rowed solo across the Pacific Ocean from the US coast to Hawaii in record time. A 2,400-mile unsupported journey in 43 days, 17 hours, and 55 minutes. Notably beating the Men’s record by 9 whole days.

My big hypothesis is that the old state flag discourse is just a replacement for all of the Trump flags that folks no longer feel comfortably flying. Was surprised driving up north last weekend how few Trump flags or decals I saw. The old state flag is just a less embarrassing way of vice signaling.

Hey! Please tell your Minnesota legislators to pass the Compensatory Aid policy, ensuring that our kids' public schools get the need-based funding they count on: secure.ngpvan.com/IiJn6xu--Uyu...

UCLA just so sharp today - using the inside-outside game, quick to the ball, getting into passing lanes, making the extra pass. Fun to see these seniors step up in this moment and leave no doubt.

There are a whole bunch of reasons to turn out for #nokings tomorrow but here are maybe the top two: 1) huge turnout is a signal to republicans edging away from Trump and puts steel in Dem spines. 2) least we can do to honor bravery of Minnesotans who turned the tide

UEFA should boycott over Greenland. CONMEBOL should boycott over Venezuela. CAF should boycott over USAID cuts. Everyone should boycott because of ICE. No one should come to the U.S. under Trump.

Yes, the GOP controls Congress. That's why it's key to show Congress COULD stop the madness. And it's not just the DHS bill. Congress could repeal the prior multi-year $75b for DHS; set up a special investigative committee (cf. Watergate); amend the Insurrection Act; etc.

Dems should introduce lots of such legislation, demand hearings and debate, make a huge fuss, use paid media to call out GOP members who are blocking their consideration--and make clear this GOP Congress is enabling the madness.

Brooklyn Park police chief Mark Bruley: "We're hearing people being stopped with no cause & being demanded to show paperwork to determine if they're here legally. We started hearing from our police officers the same complaints. Every one of these individuals is a person of color... it has to stop"

If you are surprised that everyday non-political/non-activist Minnesotans are rising up against ICE, you have not been to Minnesota. Lived in the TC for ten years, never known people more likely help a stranger out. Not that other places are hostile. But Minnesota raises the bar.

It’s easy to watch the news and feel overwhelmed or even helpless at everything going on. I need you to fight that feeling. I’m an optimist. You have to be when you strap yourself to a rocket for a living. But there’s real reason to be hopeful this year and l’ll tell you why.

The thing about deciding to come to Minnesota in the winter is maybe they thought no one would take to the streets, but I think people are just like Ope, lemme grab my heated vest and gloves and my yaktrax for my sorels and my costco stash of foot warmers real quick

Congratulations to the Toronto Blue Jays on a magnificent season. It is a shame either team had to lose. And this was a gut punch. 💔💔 Classy players, fanbase, and truly one of the finest cities in the world. Future is bright with Yeasavage, Barger, and Vladdy. Now go re-sign Bo.

What kills me is that we had this model in the form of actual newsstands. For ages, people bought single issues of newspapers without a subscription. Newspapers have a built-in model of inexpensive single-day access, but they haven’t carried it over to digital.

People are suggesting that maybe Kise is deliberately antagonizing the judge to get him to do unwise things. It’s possible. And that reminds me of a story I haven’t heard in a long time. The year is 1997 and I’m a young federal prosecutor. /1
