[[[ So Trump has publicly let Iran and the world know that we will most likely be bombing Pickaxe Mountain...Iran’s underground nuclear facility known in Iran as Kuh-e Kolang Gaz La...a heavily fortified underground site near the Natanz facility which is one of Iran’s primary enrichment,nuclear enrichment facilities. Nothing like telling the enemy what you will militarily do next while at the same time saying the infamous word 'negotiations'...sigh.]]]

RFK Jr. yanks Medicaid funds to California and Minnesota, says Dems ‘opened the floodgates to theft’ 

Ally Goelz / NEW YORK POST  

Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said Tuesday he’s stopping more than $1 billion in federal Medicaid payments to California and Minnesota over suspected fraud.

“We are not sending Medicaid dollars out the door until we have confidence that they are being spent lawfully and appropriately,” Kennedy said at an announcement on Tuesday.

Kennedy said if California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) and Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz (D) want the money to fund low-income healthcare, “they need to provide documentation that these payments are legitimate.”

“Instead of protecting your money, they open the floodgates to theft,” Kennedy said. “They dismantle basic program integrity and oversight.”

The health secretary criticized the Biden administration’s oversight of Medicaid, arguing that former HHS Secretary Xavier Becerra “looked the other way while fraud, waste, and abuse exploded.” Read more, see video and photos here.

Iran secretly submitted proposal for 10-day ceasefire while under intense US strikes - exclusive

The mediators, including senior Qatari, Egyptian, Omani, and Pakistani officials, have presented the proposal to the United States.

It was Tehran that initiated the proposal now being advanced by mediators for a 10-day ceasefire between the United States and Iran, two sources familiar with the negotiations told The Jerusalem Post.

The fact that Iran proposed the initiative underscores how urgently Tehran is seeking a ceasefire as US strikes continue to expand and US President Trump weighs a return to a full-scale military campaign against Iran.

According to the two sources, the purpose of the proposed ceasefire is to find a solution regarding the Strait of Hormuz, the issue that triggered the crisis over the memorandum of understanding (MoU) signed last month, after which both Tehran and Washington effectively declared that the agreement was no longer in force.

The mediators, including senior Qatari, Egyptian, Omani, and Pakistani officials, have presented the proposal to the United States and have added further elements during discussions with both Washington and Tehran. One such idea is the creation of a “middle corridor” through the Strait of Hormuz, located between Omani-controlled and Iranian-controlled waters, through which commercial vessels could safely transit.
