There’s too baggage in this move, I hope Trump’s plan is effective.
Whatever hr is doing is informed by all the daily briefs no one knows.
(Ps: not a big fan of hers, but there must be a real purpose for it. Charlie was Trump’s bestie and not necessary so when Erika was appointed.)

We visited “ground zero” for hospice fraud: Los Angeles, California
A CBS News analysis of records for every hospice operating in Los Angeles County finds indications of fraud are growing.
By Rachel Gold, Laura Geller, Adam Yamaguchi and Graham Kates
Published March 10, 2026
At age 69, Lynn Ianni is a pickleball whiz, zipping from dinks to drives energetically. When she suffered an injury on the court two years ago, she sought physical therapy, and was surprised to learn her Medicare insurance wouldn’t cover it.
She was, according to Medicare records, dying and in hospice.
“They said, ‘you're in hospice.’ And I said, ‘what? What are you talking about?” Ianni said. “‘Are you kidding me? Do I look like I’m in hospice?’”
Ianni’s Medicare number had been stolen, and used by a company to fraudulently enroll her in hospice – specialized, compassionate care for terminal patients nearing the end of their lives. It was another example of fraud in the hospice industry, long a nationwide problem. But her case arose well after officials had promised to stamp it out in California, where the problem has been especially acute.
Medicare is federally administered, and hospices must be certified for reimbursements. But the state issues the licenses for hospices to operate.
Three years ago, California’s state auditor sounded the alarm that Los Angeles County had seen a 1,500% increase in hospice companies since 2010 – more than six times the national average relative to its elderly population.
Auditors estimated LA County hospices overbilled Medicare by $105 million in a single year. The report called out notable red flags – key warning signs of fraud:
Multiple hospices in one building
Geographic clustering
Low patient counts
High rates of terminally ill patients later discharged alive
Excessive billing
Staff shared across multiple companies
The state says it proceeded to investigate and revoke the licenses of 280 hospices.
But since then, the problem has continued to fester. CBS News examined the business and financial records of every hospice currently operating in LA County, applying the same indicators identified by the state. Indications of fraud have not stopped. In fact, they’ve grown.
The CBS News analysis reveals that over 700 of the roughly 1,800 hospices in LA County, trigger multiple red flags for fraud as defined by the state.
(I can’t stand posting the rest! Everyone they made die, should be hunted for the rest of their short livesno matter how many die, there is no punishment from Government.)

CBS News’s Scott MacFarlane leaves network: ‘I look forward to some independence’
Justice correspondent most known for his January 6 Capitol riot coverage is latest to quit Bari Weiss-led network

Scott MacFarlane, the CBS News justice correspondent most known for his extensive coverage of the January 6 Capitol insurrection, surprised colleagues on Monday morning by announcing his departure from the network, which he joined in late 2021.
MacFarlane is only the latest departure from the Bari Weiss-led network, though he said in a memo to colleagues – also posted on LinkedIn – that he personally made the decision to leave.
“This is my decision, and I appreciate the bosses at CBS for understanding it,” he wrote. “I will always value the opportunity I had to work alongside the talented and committed professionals here. I’m proud to have had the words ‘CBS correspondent’ next to my name – always will be.”
MacFarlane, who joined CBS News after working as an investigative reporter for NBC Washington, indicated that he doesn’t have another job lined up. “For the next phase of my career, I look forward to some independence and finding new spaces to share my work in line with my personal goals,” he wrote.
CBS News did not release a comment about MacFarlane’s departure, though Weiss acknowledged on the network’s morning editorial call that he had produced multiple scoops during his tenure at the network, according to a staffer who participated.
Considering his extensive coverage of the Capitol insurrection, MacFarlane was said to be frustrated with the network’s decision to air only a brief mention – derided by some as evincing a both sides focus – on its fifth anniversary in early January.
“President Trump today accused Democrats of failing to prevent the attack on the Capitol, while House Democratic leader Hakeem Jeffries accused the president of ‘whitewashing’ it,” Tony Dokoupil, a CBS Evening News anchor, said during the 6 January 2026 episode of the show.
“He was pissed that they barely marked January 6 and both sides-d it during Tony’s roadshow,” a CBS News colleague – who was not authorized to comment – told the Guardian.
On 7 January, in what was seen as a dig at the network’s coverage, MacFarlane shared a clip of him appearing on the BBC to talk about the anniversary. “Here’s my deep dive on the 5-year mark of Jan 6 – The ongoing impact on victims, the lies … and the continued malignant corrosion of democracy. As aired on ….. The BBC,” he wrote. (CBS News and the BBC have a news-sharing partnership.)
MacFarlane’s departure was noted by his colleagues at the network, including Kathryn Watson, a CBS News reporter.
“Such a huge loss for us at CBS News,” she wrote in a post on X. “Scott is not only one of the most diligent journalists I know, but also, one of the most good-hearted ones. We will miss you!”
His exit was also noted by critics of Weiss’s leadership of the network.
Two different CBS Evening News producers recently criticized the network’s editorial direction in memos announcing their departure from the network via a voluntary buyout program.
“We’ve been told to aim our reporting at a particular part of the political spectrum,” Mary Walsh, a veteran CBS News producer, wrote in a memo late last month. “Honestly, I don’t know how to do that.”
Kim Harvey, the executive producer of the Evening News, pushed back on Walsh’s farewell comments in a follow-up note to her staff.

Without the SAVE Act, we will…
Lose the House in November.
Democrats will nuke the filibuster.
The Senate will be lost within four years.
More Ketanji Browns will be confirmed to the Supreme Court.
Democrats will then cheat a Democrat into the White House.
The border will be opened like a wound. We will be flooded with illegal aliens.
The cheating at the polls will then be irreversible.
Democrats will be a supermajority for decades to come.
Every city and town will look end up looking like every blue city shithole looks now.
America will become a socialist sewer.
OR…
The Senate can dump big corp parasite John Thune, and pass the damn SAVE Act.

Yamaha to Leave California After 50 Years
US subsidiary home to join other core operations in Kennesaw, Georgia
By Andrew Cherney
March 6, 2026
Yamaha is moving its US headquarters to Georgia and selling its longtime California campus in a bid to streamline operations.
Yamaha is moving its US headquarters to Georgia and selling its longtime California campus in a bid to streamline operations.Yamaha
You may have already heard that Yamaha Motor Co. Ltd had decided to move its USA subsidiary out of Southern California. So is our headline somewhat overblown and possibly click-baity?
Maybe. But it’s also accurate.
Granted, the official news release from Yamaha Corporate in Tokyo last week was a little less dramatic: “Yamaha Motor Co., Ltd. has decided to relocate its U.S. group company, Yamaha Motor Corporation, U.S.A. (“YMUS”), currently located in Cypress, California, to Kennesaw, Georgia.”
So yes, Yamaha leaving its longtime Southern California offices in Orange Country after some 50-plus years is a big deal. The campus has served as the headquarters of YMUS since Yamaha Motor Co., Ltd. acquired the land in 1978 and established the office in 1979. But as is usually the case with these types of announcements, the backstory is a bit more nuanced, with multiple factors coming into play over decades, making the whole relocation angle seem like a totally rational business move once you zoom out.
Team Blue’s Motorsports division had already relocated to Georgia back in 2019.

First, the near-term stuff. Team Blue’s US headquarters is indeed pulling up stakes and heading to the other side of the country, but it’s not only swapping oranges for peaches, it’s selling the whole SoCal shebang, including land, offices, and warehouses. That makes a whole lotta sense, as the sprawling California campus—some 25 acres worth—had been reduced to housing mostly administrative and financial operations of late, and it was beginning to look like something of a white elephant for the firm.
Yamaha will begin the land sell-off in phases, starting from the end of 2026 and wrapping up by the end of 2028, thus shrinking its US real estate footprint considerably, and in turn swelling its bank account a good deal. In case you haven’t noticed, SoCal real estate isn’t exactly a bargain.
It’s also more than just a simple real estate transaction. As far as long-term strategies go, Yamaha USA has been making this shift for decades now; the subsidiary had already packed up and exported its marine division over to Georgia way back in 1999, followed a decade later by its motorsports business, which made the move in 2019. It’s probably better to think of the totality of all these actions rather than just the one move. It’s the latest step in a streamlining of operations, and this latest maneuver will consolidate all of Yamaha’s core US ops under one base, and likely improve manufacturing efficiency and logistical processes.
To be sure, there’s other fine print contributing to these “structural reforms,” as the corporate memo calls them, and we certainly can’t discount the prevailing market forces of the last few years. Especially this year, as the whipsawing action of US government-enacted tariffs contributed to a 30.4% drop in 2025 operating profit, according to Yamaha. So selling the California campus wasn’t a decision made in a vacuum, though it’s fair to say that current events may have hastened the move.
Once the sale of its assets is complete, Yamaha says it intends to lease back certain facilities in California to make sure no business operations are disrupted, and that the transition to Georgia is a smooth one.
Conspiracy theorists might point out that Zero’s, and now Yamaha’s recent relocations don’t bode well for other established two-wheel manufacturers in California, either. To which we say: Zero HQ’s move to the Netherlands last year was more the result of market forces (as in Europe being their fastest growing market, and the US going the other way) than any kind of California exodus. As for Honda, Kawasaki and Suzuki? They aren’t likely to be going anywhere else anytime soon. Then again, given the state of the headlines these days, who knows?

FBI finds explosive materials in Pa. storage unit tied to NYC protest bombs
by Associated Press | March 10, 2026
NEW YORK — The FBI found explosive materials in a Pennsylvania storage unit after two men were charged with bringing homemade bombs to a protest outside the home of New York City’s mayor, authorities said Tuesday.
Emir Balat, 18, and Ibrahim Kayumi, 19, told investigators after their arrests Saturday near Gracie Mansion in Manhattan that they were inspired by the Islamic State group,according to law enforcement officials and a criminal complaint. Both men are from the Philadelphia suburbs.
Much remained undisclosed about their motives, how much they planned and how they knew each other.Tests were being performed on some of the explosive devicesrecovered at the scene.
The FBI said Monday that it had conducted multiple searches in connection with the investigation.The police department in Middletown Township, Pennsylvania, said Tuesday that the FBI conducted controlled detonations of explosive materials found at a Public Storage facility in Langhorne, near where Balat’s family lives. Kayumi is from Newtown, about 4 miles (6.5 kilometers) north of Langhorne.
Residents “may have heard several loud bangs during the overnight hours,” the police department said in a Facebook post. “While the noise may have been startling to some residents, there was no danger to the public at any time.”
Balat’s lawyer has portrayed him as a confused teenager who didn’t know what he was doing.
Prosecutors, police and FBI officials say Balat and Kayumi drove to New York City on Saturday and joined a throng of counterprotesters at a small, anti-Muslim rally organized by the far-right Christian nationalist Jake Lang.
Journalists photographed Balat hurling a device, smoking with a lit fuse, that was later found to contain the explosive TATP. The object, which also contained nuts and bolts, extinguished itself without harming anyone.
Balat then dropped a second object near some police officers and tried to run, but was tackled and arrested, according to a court complaint
Balat and Kayumi were being held without bail after a court appearance Monday on chargesthat include attempting to provide material support to a foreign terrorist organization and using a weapon of mass destruction. They were not required to enter a plea.
Balat’s lawyer, Mehdi Essmidi, said outside court that his client, a high school senior, had “complicated stuff going on” in his personal life.
“I believe he’s 18 and he doesn’t have any idea what he’s doing,” Essmidi said. He added that he didn’t believe Balat and Kayumi had known each other for long.
New York Police Commissioner Jessica Tisch said Monday there were no indications that the attack was connected to the ongoing war in Iran. (The stupidest assessment ever!)
After Balat was arrested,police officers asked him whether he was aiming to accomplish something akin to the 2013 Boston Marathon bombing that killed three people.
“No, even bigger,”Balat replied, according to a criminal complaint.
