    Twitter Exec Defends Restoring Account That Shared Child Sex Abuse Material
    https://www.forbes.com/sites/mattnovak/2023/08/09/twitter-exec-defends-restoring-account-that-shared-child-sex-abuse-material/?sh=54096d781695
    Executives at X, the company formerly known as Twitter, testified in front of an Australian Parliament hearing late Wednesday, and defended the restoration of an X account after it shared child sexual abuse material in late July. The incident attracted widespread attention because X owner Elon Musk personally intervened to reinstate the account after a violation that would normally result in a permanent ban from the social media platform. Nick Pickles, the head of global government affairs at X, was asked about the incident by an Australian senator late Wednesday ET, early Thursday Australian local time, after he suggested there was a zero tolerance policy for child sex abuse material. Pickles said the offending account in question may have been sharing the content “out of outrage.”

    An Ecuadorean presidential candidate known for speaking up against corruption was shot and killed Wednesday at a political rally in the capital amid a wave of startling violence in the South American country. President Guillermo Lasso confirmed the assassination of Fernando Villavicencio and suggested organised crime was behind his slaying. Villavicencio was one of eight candidates in the August 20 presidential vote, though not the front runner. The politician, 59, was the candidate for the Build Ecuador Movement.

    A lawsuit accuses a Georgia doctor of decapitating a baby during delivery
    https://mynorthwest.com/3918672/a-lawsuit-accuses-a-georgia-doctor-of-decapitating-a-baby-during-delivery/
    According to the suit, the baby got stuck during delivery, but St. Julian delayed a surgical procedure and failed to seek help quickly. Instead, she applied “ridiculously excessive force” on the baby’s head and neck to try to deliver it, attorney Roderick Edmond, who is also a physician, said. Roughly three hours passed before St. Julian took Ross, 20, for a cesarean section, according to the suit. By then, a fetal monitor had stopped registering a heartbeat.

    Germany arrests a citizen who is accused of trying to spy for Russia
    https://abcnews.go.com/International/wireStory/germany-arrests-citizen-accused-spy-russia-102135018
    A German citizen was arrested on Wednesday on allegations that he tried to spy for Russia, authorities said. The suspect, who was only identified as Thomas H., in line with German privacy rules, was arrested at his home in the western city of Koblenz, and his apartment and workplace were searched. Germany’s federal prosecutor said in a brief written statement that the man works for the Germany military, in the army's office for equipment, information technology and in-service support. Starting in May, the man began approaching the Russian Consulate in the western city of Bonn and the Russian Embassy in Berlin on several occasions and on his own initiative, offering to cooperate with them. On one occasion, the suspect passed on information he had obtained in the course of his professional activities for the purpose of forwarding it to a Russian intelligence service, the prosecutor's office said.

    Texas Medicaid dropped more than 500,000 enrollees in one month
    https://www.npr.org/sections/health-shots/2023/08/03/1191416312/texas-medicaid-drops-500k-enrollees-rate-of-82-percent
    For three years during the COVID-19 pandemic, people did not have to go through any kind of renewal process to stay on Medicaid. That changed in April, and now every state is winnowing its rolls — some much more quickly than others. Texas reported disenrolling 82% of its Medicaid recipients it had processed through May, while Wyoming shed just 8% of its rolls, according to an analysis by KFF, a health policy research organization. At least 3.7 million people have lost Medicaid, including at least 500,784 Texans in just the first month, according to reports from 41 states and the District of Columbia that KFF analyzed. And 74% of people, on average, are losing coverage for "paperwork reasons," says Jennifer Tolbert, director of state health reform at KFF. She described some of those reasons. "They didn't get the renewal notice in time. They didn't understand what they needed to do," says Tolbert. "Or they submitted the documents, but the state was unable to process those documents before their coverage was ended."
