    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."

    ESPN Inks $2B Deal for Gambling Venture With Penn Entertainment
    https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/business/digital/espn-bet-sportsbook-penn-entertainment-barstool-sold-1235559140/
    In a major sports betting move, ESPN has cut a $2 billion deal with casino owner Penn Entertainment to launch ESPN Bet, a branded sportsbook. ESPN Bet will launch this fall in the 16 states where Penn has sports betting licenses. It will replace the Barstool Sportsbook. Penn is paying ESPN $1.5 billion in cash over the 10-year term, with another $500 million in warrants that will vest over the term “in exchange for media, marketing services, brand and other rights provided by ESPN.” According to the terms of the deal, Penn will get the rights to the ESPN brand (for betting purposes) for 10 years, with the option to extend for another 10 years with mutual agreement. ESPN programs will promote the service, with some ESPN talent being involved as well. ESPN will also be able to designate a Penn board member after three years. In connection with the deal, Penn will sell Barstool Sports, which it acquired in 2020. Barstool founder Dave Portnoy is the buyer of the brand, and there is a non-compete clause among other restrictive covenants. Penn will also “receive 50% of the gross proceeds” if there is a subsequent sale of Barstool. “We underestimated just how tough it is for myself and Barstool to operate in a regulated world,” Portnoy said in a video posted to his social channels, adding that he had nothing but positive things to say about Penn.
