The @nytimes article by @apoorva_nyc still says HHS “did not provide a comment.” We sent @SecKennedy’s response more than 24 hours ago and asked them to update the story. They haven’t.
Readers deserve the full story. Here’s the response the Times has yet to include.

Trump: I called Google Maps to change the name of the Atlantic Ocean to Trump Ocean. Sundar said, “No, no, no. This time I'm not doing it.” He said, “Oceans are different, sir. They cover a lot of countries. Please don't ask us to do that.”

Hundreds of Mainers lost their health insurance due to Medicaid eligibility changes tinyurl.com/27nvjwrx
Before the change, some noncitizens who were in the U.S. lawfully, including asylum-seekers and refugees, could access Medicaid.
Medicaid is funded by a mix of state and federal money. Changes included in the One Big Beautiful Bill Act mean the federal government will no longer reimburse states for Medicaid coverage provided to noncitizens.

BREAKING: In a blow for DOJ, the federal judge overseeing the case involving the alleged 20,000 non-citizen voters in California has been switched from Judge John W. Holcomb (Trump appointee) to Judge David Carter (Clinton appointee). This switch will be seen as a win for LA County/California. Judge Carter previously dismissed a DOJ lawsuit against CA last year that accused the state of not following federal laws on proper maintenance of voter rolls.
Here's what Judge Carter wrote when dismissing the case to give a flavor of his thinking on the topic:
“State run elections mean that voters recognize their neighbors who staff polling stations, trust their Secretaries of State—whom they voted for—to keep their personally identifying information safe, and believe that they will not be targeted because of what they look like or who they vote for. The DOJ’s request for the sensitive information of Californians stands to have a chilling effect on American citizens like political minority groups and working-class immigrants who may consider not registering to vote or skip casting a ballot because they are worried about how their information will be used."
