Voters in Missouri will decide today whether to amend the state constitution to expand Medicaid, a policy opposed by the Republican establishment. bit.ly/3fNrkgN
The AP has called the #Amendment2 election for supporters of Medicaid expansion in Missouri: 52%-48%. Big tallies from the St. Louis, Kansas City, Columbia, and Springfield metro areas overcame significant opposition in rural counties. Story t/k.
I'm not reading anything into it at all, but it amuses me that the AP and others have called this race, but the Missouri Secretary of State's office is still showing incomplete results that have the Medicaid expansion losing. Image

A week ago, I lost the best job I ever had. HuffPost was my professional home for 9 years and I truly loved it. A wonderful workplace filled with creative, hardworking, supportive people. I don't have a say about the future of HuffPost but I will indulge in some reminiscence.
HuffPost inspired me to do the best work of my career. I'm proud of the journalism we did together. My past editors, @petersgoodman, @EmilyRPeck (a fellow layoff victim), and @samstein, helped me find a voice I didn't know I had and pushed me to be more creative. Thank you.
My last editor at HuffPost was the inimitable @kate_sheppard. Among other things, Kate has the rare gift of understanding different people need to be managed differently. She got me. Kate is smart and kind and cares about her journalists and the people we wrote about.

I wondered what Tony Fauci does all day since this White House ignores him. So I asked the man himself. bit.ly/2VBI3uN
I really wanted to headline this "Tony Fauci Has A Cold" but I didn't think enough people would get the reference. bit.ly/2VBI3uN
When I got on the phone with Fauci, I asked him what schedule looked like that day. Here's his full answer. bit.ly/2VBI3uN ImageImageImage

I could not bring myself to take Trump's health care speech today seriously, and neither should anybody. bit.ly/2S9WIMl
That was so much garbage in that speech I couldn't get to all of it. There are also some really wonky things his administration has done - like for kidney disease patients - that are totally fine and okay, but they don't rise to the level of "health care reform."
First, there's this thing Trump said about sending $200 bribes to every Medicare enrollee right before the election. Read this for more (spoiler: it's brazenly a bribe, it's not paid for with real money, and it might be illegal). bit.ly/306wEpu

It will surprise no one that Trump is two minutes into this health care speech and roughly 95% of what he's said is bullshit.
He's so obviously bored. He did get a little worked up when he said "China virus," though.
JUST IN: Trump dislikes Obamacare

People are giving Bill Barr guff about declaring New York City an #AnarchistJurisdiction. Well, this Brooklyn resident is here to tell you it's a nightmare out there! I documented the horrors I found within just one block of my apartment. READER DISCRETION ADVISED [1/11]
I encountered this unsettling scene right on my own doorstep. Where is the baby? Don't bother asking Di Blasio, who banned the cops from investigating baby snatching. #AnarchistJurisdiction [2/11] Image
Nobody has bought this building. You know why? I bet it's BLM's fault somehow. #AnarchistJurisdiction [3/11] Image

You might think confronting mortality just comes with the territory for health care workers. But these are human beings like the rest of us. All this suffering takes a toll. bit.ly/2FEVQN6
Talking to health care workers this year, I've been struck by how every one of them said they were more worried about passing the virus to others than they were about their own lives. bit.ly/2FEVQN6
It's shameful that, six months into this pandemic in the U.S., doctors, nurses, and other health care workers still don't have adequate safety equipment. They're still reusing masks. bit.ly/2FEVQN6
