Minnesota Medicaid funding paused
Dana covers the administration's move to withhold $259.5M Medicaid funds from Minnesota as a fraud crackdown and political retribution claim.
Friday, February 27th, 2026
Today, Trump is seeking unconstitutional power over our elections; the Trump administration is pausing some Medicaid funding to Minnesota; Kansas has sent letters to trans people demanding the immediate surrender of drivers licenses; a Nobel winner is stepping down as head of Columbia's Brain Institute over his ties to Epstein; and Dana reads your Good News while Allison is on vacation.
