The Trump admin is right to abandon the activist, big government policies of the Biden era.
Biden’s DoJ aimed to take a bulldozer to companies and industries that weren't all in on their progressive agenda.

If you care about #340B policy, use the long weekend to read this outstanding new paper:
"Stretching Scarce Authorizing Legislation as Far as Possible: A Legislative History of the 340B Drug Pricing Program."
Sayeh Nikpay @saynikpay and her colleagues went back to the early 1990's to reconstruct the program's origins. Their research draws on interviews with 18 key participants and 175 primary source documents spanning 1990–1992.
Their conclusion is difficult to ignore:
340B was originally designed as a narrow policy solution to address an unintended consequence of Medicaid’s best-price provision and to support core safety-net providers.
But the paper makes a compelling case that today’s program extends far beyond Congress’s original intent.
Whether you support or oppose the current structure of 340B, this paper is essential reading for anyone who wants to understand how we got here.
Read it here: drugch.nl/4dVSiTD
One especially fascinating detail: The disproportionate share hospital (DSH) eligibility threshold of 11.75% was chosen to qualify two specific hospitals and secure bipartisan support from Senator Hatch and Representative Bliley.
In other words, the threshold was not grounded in any broader scientific or policy rationale.
Amazing.

The Golden Age is indeed here! Kevin Warsh was an intern in the White House Counsel’s Office in 1991 and worked with me on Justice Clarence Thomas’s epic confirmation battle. Today, Justice Thomas swore in Kevin as Chairman of the Federal Reserve. Thank you President Trump for making this exceptional appointment. Congratulations, Chairman Warsh!

In today's @nypost, I ask @NewYorkStateAG to explain why her office's Medicaid fraud enforcement numbers are so low, and why they have declined on her watch.

In Ep 134 short, Dr. Redfield: Operation Warp Speed vs NIH. Give money to private sector. Fauci said 3-7 years. Trump wanted year end. Remove obstacles, engage innovation. This is how things imagined get done.

Well he probably does know @NYHammond but he didn't write the op ed and he didn't proof read before the union sent it to the paper....

An outstanding piece by Tomas. FDA needs to be radically re-thought top to bottom. Its mandate needs to be shrunk, its ambitions disciplined and the bias against approval expurgated. The FDA’s New Leaders Can Unleash Innovation wsj.com/opinion/the-fd…

It's a beautiful speech. Incredibly powerful. @MarkPaoletta

Justice Clarence Thomas took a blowtorch to the 8 Supreme Court Justices who established the despicable “separate but equal” doctrine in Plessy v. Ferguson in 1896 that sanctioned racial segregation. Justice Thomas says they acted with “cowardice.” “It could not have taken my Court sixty years to know that Plessy was a hideous wrong and that racial segregation was grossly incompatible with our colorblind Constitution. The Justices must have known it all along. The right thing to do, as Justice Harlan spelled out in his lone dissent at the time, was obvious as it so often is. What stood in the way was cowardice. The Justices were afraid of the societal consequences. They were afraid of coming under political fire. They were afraid that, if they began to enforce a colorblind Constitution, they would have to address interracial marriage next. So, for sixty disgraceful years, they made American children like me grow in racial caste system because it was easier to do nothing than do the right thing.” ------ Because the Justices used social science (the infamous doll study) to strike down racial segregation in schools in Brown, rather than on an equal protection clause basis, the Court delayed striking down anti-miscegenation laws until 1967, another disgraceful episode. THAT is why Justice Thomas has criticized Brown. In his view, the Supreme Court should have struck down those disgraceful laws on equal protection grounds, echoing the Declaration’s promise that all men are created equal. In Justice Thomas’s view, the Justices hid behind social science out of fear of reaffirming the simple truth that all men are created equal and endowed with certain inalienable rights. This is why Justice Thomas does not give a damn about judicial precedent. He has personally felt the lash of a barbaric ruling and there was no reason whatsoever to give it any deference. And he believes there are many cases like this. Justice Thomas’s courage to take as his guiding light the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution without any regard to the barnacles that have attached to these documents is why he is our nation’s greatest Justice. The speech is titled “Remarks on the 250th Anniversary of the Declaration of Independence,” delivered at @UTAustin on April 15, 2026. (link below to full speech)

I’ve watched firsthand how focused this team is on making life more affordable for American families.
As of today, TrumpRX.gov has already helped save Americans more than $400 million and we just added 600 more medications to the program.
Our President is demanding transparency and choice, which helps bring economic freedom.

Ryan Long dropping knowledge. 340b is out of control and it's malpractice for Congress having a created a program that is totally out of control to not step in a fix this.

This good and decent man @tristan_azbej deserves a break after working so hard for such a noble cause but it would be a tragedy if this important work is abandoned by Hungary.

“I am concluding my mandate as State Secretary responsible for Hungary Helps,” Tristan Azbej wrote on his social media page, announcing the end of the program which was launched in 2017 and provided support for persecuted Christians and vulnerable communities worldwide. @HungaryHelps @tristan_azbej hungarytoday.hu/new-liberal-go…

Fertility peaked in 2007. 2026 is 18 years later, when this "baby bust" starts heading to college. Only the beginning, and ALL schools should prepare.

Another way of visualizing recent trends in NYS spending
Bill Hammond@NYHammond
The still-to-be finished NYS budget is expected to hit $268 billion. That would be an increase of $96 billion or 55% over the past eight years. That's about $43 billion or 25 points higher than the inflation rate

Here is a comparison of New York and Texas.
In Texas, health care and social assistance is outpacing the rest of the workforce, but it's a relatively new phenomenon.
Jobs outside that category are up 13% since 2019.
Bill Hammond@NYHammond
Here is the comparable chart for New York. Without health care and social assistance, employment is down 1% since 2019.

In terms of investigations per billion in Medicaid spending from 2020-24, New York's Medicaid Fraud Control Unit ranked third from the bottom among the 50 states
English
Joe Grogan retweetledi
A federal audit of Medicaid Fraud Control Units could put New York - and AG Letitia James - on the hot seat.
New York's MFCU, based in the attorney general's office, has conducted relatively few investigations relative to the scale of the state's Medicaid program.
