Democrats have a choice continue as the loyal opposition in a political order defined primarily by the populist right or mobilize a transformative ideological vision and distinctive set of policies capable of defining the political order itself Kamala Harris speaking at Howard University in Washington DC on November Al Drago Bloomberg via Getty Images Since Donald Trump triumphed over Kamala Harris in the presidential election the Democratic Party has been consumed by an ongoing Discourse War concerning what went wrong and who is Opinion sections podcasts cable news punditry and social media feeds have been awash with finger pointing in all directions blame Joe Biden point to Harris lay responsibility at the feet of the party for its alleged capture by liberal and progressive causes Others the party s failure to sufficiently embrace those same causes The debate rages on Combined with the dispiriting reality of looking down the barrel of a second Donald Trump administration the often mind numbing noise of the Democratic blame game raises a simple question Does any of this hindsight induced hand wringing really matter Or is the Democratic Discourse simply a lot of sound and fury in the end signifying nothing History suggests that these postelection debates really can matter and that this particular round of internal party contention is likely to be especially consequential for our collective future While it may seem like déjà vu all over again the Democrats again finding themselves in a disoriented leaderless state of drift as they did after Trump s victory the context has changed dramatically Returning to power with a decisive though narrow Electoral College and popular vote victory Trump has an opportunity to consolidate a durable realignment of US politics and policymaking that could last for a generation Not only are he and his coalition more organized than last time but the wider political order is Having already achieved the greatest political comeback in American history Trump now has a chance to define the shape of what comes next How Democrats respond to this challenge and how they navigate a second Trump administration will also determine the contours of the post neoliberal order we are entering How they formulate that response and what social forces can sustain it are the stakes of the current Democratic Discourse Dueling Diagnoses Implicit in all diagnoses of a problem is a prescriptive remedy about how to fix it Traditionally expect that when a party loses an election party leaders interest group stakeholders and allied activists will come together to try to figure out what went wrong While the collective conversation can stretch on interminably the basic idea is that the party learns from its mistakes and corrects course before the next election What s wrong with this picture is that modern American parties are not really collective organizations with deliberative institutions active memberships or binding authority structures capable of having the kinds of conversations imagined by sanguine political scientists Rather as entities that bridge state and society parties are contentious institutions that pull together differently situated political actors with conflicting interests and divergent agendas Although relations of mutual dependence pull them together party coalitions are shot through with contentious politics Career politicians want to pursue reelection above all else Interest groups think tanks and party aligned movements tend to prioritize the content of the policy agenda Donors may oppose what movements demand while officeholders may resent the demands of both Although relations of mutual dependence pull them together party coalitions are shot through with contentious politics Such a perspective on political parties casts postelection debates in a new light While they may seem inconsequential or an by those trying to avoid blame they present unique opportunities to shift the balance of party power and seize the initiative When the incumbent party leadership is temporarily discredited by the sting of defeat the party s electoral future is uncertain and its core identity is open to question contending groups and aspiring party leaders can jockey for position Data Doesn t Speak for Itself Beyond internal party conflicts of interest another reason these postelection debates can be so contentious is that election outcomes don t speak for themselves They tell us who won but not why they won Election data can be sliced and diced in a number of different ways with each analysis mobilized in support of distinct narratives that diagnose what went wrong and what to do about it While some postelection analyses are more plausible than others the true reasons why an election turned out one way and not another can never be pinned down definitively As a result postelection hot takes become fodder for the internal party struggle The outcome of the election for instance can be looked at in at least two very different ways From one angle when we strip away all the specifics of the campaigns and focus on what call the fundamentals Harris s defeat appears entirely unsurprising Despite her meteoric though temporary rise in the polls last summer she was inevitably associated with a historically unpopular president who rightly or wrongly was held responsible for post pandemic inflation Unpopular incumbents governing over a period of inflation typically lose vote share in the next election Indeed was an for incumbent governments across the world In comparison with other wealthy democracies the US economy brought inflation down faster without sacrificing employment levels perhaps explaining why this year s electoral referendum on the Biden economy was the least harsh of all electoral reckonings that year Nevertheless according to this narrative nothing was particularly surprising about the election an unpopular incumbent administration lost decisively but narrowly mainly due to economic circumstances beyond its control repeating a pattern that looks very similar to and But from another angle we can tell a very different story that places the election in all its historical specificity From this perspective the outcome is perhaps one of the most extraordinary events in American political history Postelection narratives are not so much empirical claims made about the world than they are political claims made on the world In yet another previously unimaginable defiance of political norms and criminal law Trump won reelection after attempting to overturn the outcome of the previous one He is the first Republican to win the popular vote in twenty years He expanded his coalition and grew his base of support in of the country compared to He also made into traditionally Democratic metro areas All of this was achieved by a candidate whose character flaws and political baggage are so monumental it is hard to believe that they wouldn t have disqualified any other candidate In this narrative the fact that fits with a pattern of anti incumbent reactions against inflation is irrelevant What s important is the identity of candidates themselves Trump as a historically unprecedented danger to the republic who got reelected and Harris as the candidate who failed to stop him Which of these explanations is correct For the purposes of the Democratic Discourse it doesn t really matter Postelection narratives are not so much empirical claims made about the world than they are political claims made on the world They are the discursive material out of which factional forces can be marshalled old guards can be challenged and sometimes new internal party alignments can be cemented Durable party transformation requires more than winning debates of course But prevailing in the postelection contest of ideas is a necessary part of that struggle The Last Discourse War If the Democratic Party s trajectory is significantly affected by the current postelection debate it in its history While the seeds of party change are often planted by failed insurgent candidates such as Bernie Sanders in it is in the fateful moments following electoral defeat when they are nurtured and take root In as the New Deal Democrats were torn apart by domestic and foreign policy disputes and a chaotic national convention movement aligned capitalized on a moment of electoral disarray to advance a narrative that diagnosed the party s electoral crisis as an absence of party democracy For a party whose male pale and stale leadership contrasted so sharply with the young and diverse movement activists flooding into its ranks old guard defenders of the status quo had little to offer a rapidly changing society With the old way of doing things discredited and pressure to reunify the party building ahead of the next election a coalition of New Politics reformers and pragmatic party officials swept aside their opponents and installed the most far reaching party reforms in American history They lowered the barriers for participation increased demographic representation and sought to develop robust leadership accountability mechanisms While election losses can open new opportunities for the Left they can also do so for the Right Before the most ambitious New Politics reforms could be fully institutionalized counterreformers seized on the Democrats landslide defeat as proof that the new reforms were disastrous Reversing the narratives of New Politics activists counterreformers claimed that party reform had resulted in too few party officials being included in the new presidential nominating process With the sting of electoral defeat hanging over them New Politics reformers and their allies were unable to prevent the partial rollback of their reform project Over a decade later in the wake of Ronald Reagan s second landslide victory New Democrats grouped around the Democratic Leadership Council used the playbook to assail the party s alleged capture by liberal groups and make the case for severing the party brand from its big government legacy While not a guaranteed path to success prevailing in the postelection debate has been a key facet of previous party transformations Three Tendencies Though the current round of intra Democratic debate rages on enough dust has settled to discern some core ideas convergences and emerging points of tension among the competing narratives At the risk of oversimplification we can sort them into three broad tendencies left populist new centrist and accommodationist Predictably Bernie Sanders without pulling any punches It should come as no great surprise that a Democratic Party which has abandoned working class people would find that the working class has abandoned them In the days and weeks that followed progressives with for a capable of countering the Trumpian alternative The friendly reception Sanders s statement received outside his amen corner was less predictable Ezra Klein dedicated a whole to the question Would Bernie Have Won Conservative columnist David Brooks Maybe Bernie Sanders Is Right In the face of the obvious success of Trump s MAGA movement the left populist critique seems to have struck a chord A second predictable postelection narrative hails from the party center In keeping with a tradition stretching back to the many of these pollsters and former party strategists emphasize the off centeredness of Democratic positions on what they consider hot button social issues especially trans rights Much of the blame for Democratic electoral failure is laid at the feet of unchecked campus culture use of woke terminology and other Fox News sounding villains However while there is continuity to this centrist narrative over the decades there are also interesting signs of change Signifying the underlying crumbling of the bipartisan neoliberal consensus the new centrism has begun to shift away from the virtues of free markets and free trade and a technocratic obsession with procedure and process Signifying the underlying crumbling of the bipartisan neoliberal consensus the new centrism has begun to shift away from the virtues of free markets and free trade Following the lead of Biden himself a lifelong centrist the vast majority of congressional Democrats voted for or announced their support for his revival of industrial policy While only partially realized the Build Back Better agenda would have constituted the most extensive package of economic benefits for working and middle class families since the s according to Building a truly progressive alternative to the neoliberal order obviously requires much more than bold policy pronouncements But as far as rhetoric goes a economic agenda and the underlying philosophy of embraced by Treasury secretary Janet Yellen represent new positions for the formerly neoliberal party center The third tendency are those who have announced their readiness to accommodate themselves to the new reality and engage with Trump on his own terms Whether due to the exhaustion of or mere opportunism accommodationist Democrats are extending feelers for cooperating on restricting immigration cutting federal spending and defending Social Security and Medicare Rep Ro Khanna has called for with MAGA Republicans In his first Truth Social post Senator John Fetterman has that Biden pardon president elect Trump of all federal charges associated with his bullshit hush money payments to Stormy Daniels Wittingly or otherwise their efforts work to normalize Trump and the core themes of the MAGA movement Undergirding all three positions is the growing recognition that Trumpism offers something quite appealing to many millions of working class voters If Trumpism is to be thwarted either a left populism must win working class voters back or a robust industrial policy must lessen inequality and insecurity Otherwise aspects of Trumpism will be appropriated by Democrats Which narrative will prevail is not clear or predictable Much will depend on the many unknowns of the new Trump administration and how Democrats choose to navigate the post neoliberal landscape The Battle for Common Sense In the wake of Harris s defeat the New York Times ran by New York s lieutenant governor entitled Democrats It s Time to Say Goodbye to Our Neoliberal Era While the piece rightly noted the ways in which Bidenism tried with very mixed success to do just that it ignored the degree to which Trumpism has already said its goodbyes to neoliberalism and is in the process of ushering in something new Political change of course isn t typically very sudden We don t go to sleep in neoliberalism and wake up in something else Political change unfolds at different speeds at different scales often layering the new atop the old displacing some of what came before while also generating frictions and outright contradictions as new and old interact and collide The neoliberal order has not vanished nor will it ever entirely After all aspects of the New Deal order live on today as the third rail status of Social Security demonstrates Long standing neoliberal fantasies of gutting the federal government have found a new lease on life in Elon Musk s and Vivek Ramaswamy s and abroad in Javier Milei s Argentina But neoliberalism s glory days are behind us and it is Trumpism and other right wing populisms that are harvesting political capital from the wreckage it has left behind In this conjuncture Democrats and other center left parties around the world have a fundamental choice to make continue to play the role of the loyal opposition in a political order defined primarily by the populist right or mobilize a transformative ideological vision viable electoral coalition and distinctive set of policies capable of defining the political order itself Establishing a new political order means nothing less than resetting the very boundaries of politics and making what once seemed impossible possible Choosing the latter will require accepting the failure of the popular front general election strategy Democrats have embraced for the past three presidential cycles A coalition that as ranges from Bernie Sanders to Dick Cheney to Taylor Swift will always be about defending the status quo nor does it actually succeed in pulling Republican voters Even party apparatchik Rahm Emanuel that the status quo is broken and no longer defendable No doubt the transformative choice is a tougher climb for Democrats For decades they have avoided spending the political capital necessary to push through legislation that would make it easier to form private sector unions challenge business power and foster a progressive social base at the heart of the party There are some signs that an increasing number of Democrats are amenable to filibuster reform which would lower the legislative hurdles to pro labor legislation and Biden did take significant though symbolic action to establish himself as a pro union president But establishing a new political order requires more than just good policy It means nothing less than resetting the very boundaries of politics and making what once seemed impossible possible Over the past decade that kind of politics has been nearly monopolized by Trump to great effect As he recently defended his worldview in a to the Economic Club of New York Some might say it s economic nationalism I call it common sense Establishing a new common sense as Antonio Gramsci taught us is what hegemony is all about As Democrats cast about in search of a new party identity in a post neoliberal world it is more imperative than ever to present a political alternative to the authoritarian populism Trump and his enablers are normalizing We have a clear choice will the post neoliberal order be shaped into something more just and democratic than what came before it or is this now Trump s world and we just live in it

We discuss the first month of President Donald Trump s second term in office and the response from the Democratic Party with journalist David Sirota founder and editor in chief of The Lever He notes that despite Republicans holding all three branches of the federal government Trump has mainly used executive orders and other decrees to impose his will instead of using legislation They re trying to create a precedent that presidents cannot be constrained at all he says of the party s strategy He also faults Democrats for failing to effectively oppose the administration What is the Democratic Party for What does it support What does it advocate for There s not really much of an answer right now This is a rush transcript Copy may not be in its final form AMY GOODMAN This is Democracy Now democracynow org The War and Peace Report I m Amy Goodman One month into Donald Trump s second presidency he s mostly governed through executive orders and carried out his agenda with sweeping cuts by the richest man in the world Elon Musk the billionaire and his so called Department of Government Efficiency all of which has generated a slew of protests lawsuits judicial rebukes This week Trump shared an illustration of himself wearing crown with the headline Long Live the King it looked like a Time magazine cover as he cheered his administration s move to end congestion pricing in New York On Tuesday Elon Musk defended his work to gut whole agencies across the federal government in a joint interview with President Trump on Fox News ELON MUSK I think what we re seeing here is the sort of the thrashing of the bureaucracy as we try to restore democracy and the will of the people AMY GOODMAN Meanwhile a court filing from the White House Office of Administration lists Elon Musk as a senior adviser to the president who s serving as an employee of the White House office not DOGE which the White House previously said he was leading To discuss this and much more as Elon Musk holds up a chainsaw at the CPAC summit that just took place we re joined by David Sirota founder and editor in chief of The Lever former senior communications adviser and speechwriter for Bernie Sanders His recent for The Lever are headlined Trump Just Limited Your Payout for Airline Mishaps Elon Doesn t Want You to Know His DEI Past and Musk Just Scored More Government Cash While Pushing Education Cuts Well you re here for a big podcast convention You were talking about climate But talk about what s happening right now and the level of resistance DAVID SIROTA I think what we have to understand is that and the question that we have to ask is Why is Donald Trump behaving the way he s behaving when his party already controls Congress and the courts What is the point of trying to do what he s doing without going through the normal process of legislating Right If you want to close down the Department of Education if you want to close down the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau the way to try to do that is through legislation through passing it through Congress having the law upheld in court His party controls those institutions So why hasn t the White House tried to do that through the normal process And I think if you step back what you see is what they re trying to do is create the precedent that a president can do whatever a president wants that it s not a coequal branch of government that essentially it is a king an elected king And I think they re relying on the idea that people or at least their base doesn t necessarily know or care about what the difference between a president in a coequal branch of government is versus an elected monarch They re trying to create a precedent that presidents cannot be constrained at all AMY GOODMAN And your response to Elon Musk saying We re talking about the thrashing of the bureaucracy as we try to restore democracy I mean you watch Fox and all they re talking about is laughing about people getting DOGEd They re cutting the fat out You re not hearing about what the services are that are being slashed sliced and diced across this country DAVID SIROTA This is an old tactic This reminds me of the Gingrich era Newt Gingrich when he rose to power in Congress would come out and pick out one or two science projects that sounds on its face ridiculous Oh the government s spending million to study cow flatulence Oh this means that the entire government is wasteful Meanwhile there s a reliance that there s not an understanding of what scientific research ends up developing And I think they re applying that across the board And we have to ask the question Well why The richest man in the world is also one of the largest government contractors So there s an inherent conflict of interest or in the case of the Trump administration I guess an alignment of interest The more you cut public services the more it creates essentially the impetus to hire private contractors And the guy who s doing the overseeing of the cutting happens to be one of the largest private contractors AMY GOODMAN You recently said on social media quote It s not really a political party at this point It s better understood as a country club with status perks for its emeritus leaders and referring to the Democratic Party in response to news that former VP presidential candidate Kamala Harris had signed with CAA to represent her on her post White House initiatives including speaking engagements and possible book deals DAVID SIROTA Look the Democratic Party doesn t seem to be interested in changing at least not yet They reelected their same leaders who oversaw the policy and party positioning that led to Trump s reelection That s the same leadership that led to Trump s first election in The party doesn t seem interested in changing how it approaches its own voters or its own effort to win elections There s some lip service to the middle to the working class but there s not really a change in policy AMY GOODMAN What do you make of Senator Sanders now going around the country and speaking in red districts that are most vulnerable He says If we can turn around three he says they ve ended their extremely narrow lead in the House DAVID SIROTA Yeah look I think Bernie Sanders is doing the right thing It s an example of what the Democrats at large should be doing which is actually going into and trying to speak to the disaffected working class that used to be the base of the Democratic Party The problem is that the Democratic Party its leaders are caught between the demands of their donors and the demands of voters which is why so often the Democratic leadership sounds incoherent If you re trying to address what voters want but also trying to enrich or appease your donors you often sound like you stand for nothing I mean can we actually explain or answer the question What do the Democrats stand for right now other than in theory rhetorically being against Trump even though they re giving votes to confirm some of his nominees Like I think the average person has trouble even articulating What is the Democratic Party for What does it support What does it advocate for There s not really much of an answer right now AMY GOODMAN You had a recent on Elon Musk s previous support for DEI policies at Tesla DAVID SIROTA Yeah Well look only a few years ago Tesla was touting itself as weaving DEI into its DNA That s a quote out of a large report that came out from Tesla Obviously the politics have shifted Donald Trump is trying to demonize DEI as a way to appeal to the working class and the Democrats haven t made an effective argument on economics to also try to appeal to the working class And right now if both parties aren t really making an economic appeal then Trump is relying on making an identity appeal AMY GOODMAN In this last seconds what do you think is most important right now DAVID SIROTA The most important thing is for the Democrats to try to gum up the works to stop what s going on They don t have a lot of power And it s also important to understand that if Donald Trump is going outside of the institutions of government then the Democrats are going to have to rely on different kinds of tactics that don t just rely on just press conferences in the U S Senate AMY GOODMAN Do you think it s possible Republicans in the House and Senate will turn on Trump DAVID SIROTA I don t believe it s going to happen I just there s no historical precedent for the Republicans to bail out on their own president AMY GOODMAN David Sirota founder and editor in chief of The Lever we want to thank you so much for being with us and we will link to your at democracynow org I m Amy Goodman This is Democracy Now democracynow org The War and Peace Report

Fresh off a week of being Republicans returned to Capitol Hill suddenly pressing Elon Musk to project a kinder friendlier face of DOGE Why it matters Republican and Democratic congressional districts alike have been rattled by for slashing government funding and terminating chunks of the federal workforce When you have a lot of people who are scared and a lot of people who are angry of course you should take it seriously said Rep Rich McCormick R Ga one of several House Republicans who were grilled on DOGE at tense town halls last week McCormick noted that Musk to be more compassionate in He s kind of forgotten some of that McCormick said of Musk I want to be his conscience Said Rep Ryan Zinke R Mont We can all agree on removing fraud waste and abuse Does it also mean that you remove benefits from those that need it The answer is no State of play The potential for anti DOGE backlash was made all too real for Republicans last week when angry constituents flooded their town halls and protested outside their offices in opposition to DOGE Several House Republicans besides McCormick also faced raucous town hall audiences while dozens of others faced protests outside of their district offices Some Republicans have dismissed the sudden burst of local anti DOGE energy as the work of liberal activist groups but others are not so quick to shrug it off given the echoes of and Between the lines It would be more helpful if some of those DOGE folks showed more sensitivity to the people who are being terminated this way who didn t do anything wrong said one House Republican who was granted anonymity to speak candidly Some of that stuff is very necessary to reduce our spending but we should show compassion for the people who are no longer getting a paycheck and we should tighten up our messaging the lawmaker said Another House Republican vented that a lot of people are losing their jobs and they don t understand why A third said Musk is more liked by people in the White House than anyone here because we have to deal with the ramifications of what he says Zoom in House Republicans vented about DOGE officials tactics and lack of communication with Congress at their closed door conference meeting Tuesday according to multiple members in attendance Members want to communicate to the White House that there has to be a little more strategy and a little more recognition that these are people according to the second House Republican who spoke anonymously Said a fourth House Republican All of us are waiting to hear what s going to happen and I d rather not I d rather be told what the plan is because we re certainly going to be asked questions about it Zoom in There was also talk of holding an info session on town hall best practices including tips for not getting riled up by provocative activists and giving them a viral moment the fourth lawmaker said Some Republicans told Axios they are being responsive to what they have heard from constituents by pushing the administration to reinstate federal workers they think were wrongly fired Yes but Many Republicans maintained town halls and protests should be taken with a grain of salt if not altogether discounted because of liberal groups directing their members to show up in force There s some dissent out there but there s a heck of a lot of support said Rep Dan Meuser R Pa Rep Troy Nehls R Texas told Axios I don t know why you d want to hold a town hall right now You know the left is going to set some people up in there just to be rabble rousers Let s keep winning That s it said Nehls Town halls can come later

Seventy percent believe President Donald Trump is making good on his campaign promises a Sunday CBS News poll found underscoring why the establishment media is in a tizzy The post appeared first on
|
Donald Trump assured voters during his campaign that he would lower prices on groceries and other items but a former congressman called him out for already that promise Tech tycoons Mark Zuckerberg and Jeff Bezos have million each to Trump s inauguration despite his past attacks on them and former Democratic lawmaker Max Rose said the president elect is already siding with the rich and walking away from the policies he promised to voters This is not what Donald Trump ran on Rose said Donald Trump ran and won this presidential election largely by co opting traditional Democratic talking points in and around fighting an elitist class that was both culturally estranged from working people and working against the economic interests of working people He did not run on this notion that he was going to billionaires down to Mar a Lago in what is ultimately an escalator of transactional deals So this speaks to potentially what the Trump administration will actually look like which is traditional Republican politics of being there for the top percent That s not only a bad set of policies and agendas for working people in the United States of America but it s also going to be very poor politics ALSO READ Republican strategist Brad Todd however didn t see anything wrong with Trump associating with the social media magnates and suggested that Democrats had unfairly benefited from their largesse in the past People like Mark Zuckerberg have been in the pocket of Democrats and donating millions and millions to Democrats for generations these same donors who you re decrying for going to Mar a Lago to meet with President elect Trump Todd said They re Democratic donors I don t know how you can how you can take those things and not equate them Rose insisted he was not decrying their donations to Trump s inauguration but he said it was still a betrayal of his campaign promises This is not what Donald Trump ran on Rose said Where were the commercials that said that he is going to surround himself by billionaires at Mar a Lago who give me give him a million bucks Where were the commercials that said he s going to listen to donors and then talk about annexing the Panama Canal because someone s upset about their higher toll rates that they re paying This is not what he spoke about but it is how he is governing Watch the video below YouTube

Die Zahl der bewaffneten Konflikte steigt - und damit auch die Gefahr bei Hilfseinsatzen. In diesem Jahr sind nach Angaben des Roten Kreuzes fast 300 humanitare Helfer gestorben.
Mehr als 280 humanitare Helfer sind nach Angaben des Roten Kreuzes in diesem Jahr bei Einsatzen gestorben. Die Hilfseinsatze in Kriegs- und Krisengebieten wurden immer riskanter, sagte die Prasidentin des Deutschen Roten Kreuzes, Gerda Hasselfeldt, der Augsburger Allgemeinen.
Grund dafur sei die wachsende Bedrohung durch eine stark steigende Zahl bewaffneter Konflikte. "Um die Jahrtausendwende haben wir etwa 20 solcher Konflikte weltweit gezahlt, heute sind es 120", so Hasselfeldt.
"Vor Ort verankert"
Unter den Opfern sind demnach viele lokale Helferinnen und Helfer des jeweiligen Roten Kreuzes. "Anders als internationale Helfer sagen sie nicht, wir gehen da raus, weil es uns zu gefahrlich wird", erklarte Hasselfeldt. Im Gegenteil: Sie bleiben, weil sie vor Ort verankert sind und in den Krisengebieten leben."
Vor allem die Ukraine und der Nahe Osten stehen dabei im Mittelpunkt. "Wir sind allerdings nicht nur dort aktiv, sondern in etwa 50 Landern weltweit, wo es haufig sogenannte vergessene Krisen gibt: so auch im Sudan, wo die Menschen sich in einer unbeschreiblich katastrophalen Notlage befinden", sagte Hasselfeldt.
Hasselfeldt: Mehr Aufmerksamkeit fur akute Krisen
Mit Blick auf Deutschland kritisierte Hasselfeldt im Gesprach mit der Nachrichtenagentur dpa, dass Deutschland zu wenig in den Schutz der Bevolkerung vor Katastrophen investiere. "Wir fordern vom Bund seit Jahren, dass er sich zumindest mit 0,5 Prozent vom Bundeshaushalt am Bevolkerungsschutz beteiligt", sagte Hasselfeldt. "Doch statt rund 2,4 Milliarden Euro investiert der Bund nur rund 0,6 Milliarden Euro."
Das Thema Bevolkerungsschutz brauche auf allen politischen Ebenen auch abseits akuter Krisen mehr Aufmerksamkeit, forderte sie. Deutschland sei vielerorts nicht ausreichend auf Krisen und Katastrophen vorbereitet. Notwendig seien auch mobile Zeltstadte, die im Katastrophenfall Schutz und Obdach bieten konnen - doch die Finanzierung sei noch nicht gesichert.

Ihre Einsatze werden fur humanitare Helfer zunehmend gefahrlich Unter den getoteten Helfern befanden sich laut Rotem Kreuz in diesem Jahr uberwiegend Ortskrafte

by and This article discusses suicide ProPublica is a nonprofit newsroom that investigates abuses of power Sign up to receive as soon as they re published Geneva Moore s therapist pulled out her spiral notebook At the top of the page she jotted down the date Jan Moore s initials and the name of the doctor from the insurance company to whom she d be making her case She had only one chance to persuade him and by extension Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Texas to continue covering intensive outpatient care for Moore a patient she had come to know well over the past few months The therapist who spoke on the condition of anonymity out of fear of retaliation from insurers spent the next three hours cramming as if she were studying for a big exam She combed through Moore s weekly suicide and depression assessments group therapy notes and write ups from their past few sessions together If you or someone you know needs help here are a few resources Call the Text the from anywhere in the U S to reach a crisis counselor She filled two pages with her notes Moore had suicidal thoughts almost every day and a plan for how she would take her own life Even though she expressed a desire to stop cutting her wrists she still did as often as three times a week to feel the release of pain She only had a small group of family and friends to offer support And she was just beginning to deal with her grief and trauma over sexual and emotional abuse but she had no healthy coping skills Less than two weeks earlier the therapist s supervisor had struck out with another BCBS doctor During that call the insurance company psychiatrist concluded Moore had shown enough improvement that she no longer needed intensive treatment You have made progress the denial letter from BCBS Texas read Moore s denial letter from Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Texas contradicts many of her therapist s assessments Obtained and highlighted by ProPublica When the therapist finally got on the phone with a second insurance company doctor she spoke as fast as she could to get across as many of her points as possible The biggest concern was the abnormal thoughts the suicidal ideation self harm urges and extensive trauma history the therapist recalled in an interview with ProPublica I was really trying to emphasize that those urges were present and they were consistent She told the company doctor that if Moore could continue on her treatment plan she would likely be able to leave the program in weeks If not her recovery could be derailed The doctor wasn t convinced He told the therapist that he would be upholding the initial denial Internal notes from the BCBS Texas doctors say that Moore exhibited an absence of suicidal thoughts her symptoms had stabilized and she could participate in a lower level of care The call lasted just seven minutes Moore was sitting in her car during her lunch break when her therapist called to give her the news She was shocked and had to pull herself together to resume her shift as a technician at a veterinary clinic The fact that it was effective immediately Moore said later I think that was the hardest blow of it all After BCBS Texas denied Moore s treatment her therapist pictured here urged the company to reconsider Ilana Panich Linsman special to ProPublica Many Americans must rely on insurers when they or family members are in need of higher touch mental health treatment such as intensive outpatient programs or round the clock care in a residential facility The costs are high and the stakes for patients often are too In alone the U S spent more than of which private insurance paid about a third found that the average quoted cost for a month at a residential addiction treatment facility for adolescents was more than Health insurers frequently review patients progress to see if they can be moved down to a lower and almost always cheaper level of care That can cut both ways They sometimes cite a lack of progress as a reason to deny coverage labeling patients conditions as chronic and asserting that they have reached their baseline level of functioning And if they make progress which would normally be celebrated insurers have used that against patients to argue they no longer need the care being provided Their doctors are left to walk a tightrope trying to convince insurers that patients are making enough progress to stay in treatment as long as they actually need it but not so much that the companies prematurely cut them off from care And when insurers demand that providers spend their time justifying care it takes them away from their patients The issues that we grapple with are in the real world said Dr Robert Trestman the chair of psychiatry and behavioral medicine at the Virginia Tech Carilion School of Medicine and chair of the American Psychiatric Association s Council on Healthcare Systems and Financing People are sicker with more complex conditions Mental health care can be particularly prone to these progress based denials While certain tests reveal when cancer cells are no longer present and X rays show when bones have healed psychiatrists say they have to determine whether someone has returned to a certain level of functioning before they can end or change their treatment That can be particularly tricky when dealing with mental illness which can be fluid with a patient improving slightly one day only to worsen the next ProPublica has found scores of lawsuits over the past decade in which judges have sharply criticized insurance companies for citing a patient s improvement to deny mental health coverage In a number of those cases federal courts ruled that the insurance companies had broken designed to provide protections for people who get health insurance through their jobs Reporters reviewed thousands of pages of court documents and interviewed more than insiders lawyers patients and providers Over and over people said these denials can lead to real sometimes devastating harm An official at an Illinois facility with intensive mental health programs said that this past year two patients who left before their clinicians felt they were ready due to insurance denials had attempted suicide Dr Eric Plakun a Massachusetts psychiatrist with more than years of experience in residential and intensive outpatient programs and a former board member of the American Psychiatric Association said the proprietary standards insurers use as a basis for denying coverage often simply stabilize patients in crisis and shortcut real treatment Plakun offered an analogy If someone s house is on fire he said putting out the fire doesn t restore the house I got a hole in the roof and the windows have been smashed in and all the furniture is charred and nothing s working electrically he said How do we achieve recovery How do we get back to living in that home Unable to pay the a day out of pocket cost for additional intensive outpatient treatment Moore left her program within a week of BCBS Texas denial The insurer would only cover outpatient talk therapy During her final day at the program records show Moore s suicidal thoughts and intent to carry them out had escalated from a to a on a to scale She was barely eating or sleeping A few hours after the session Moore drove herself to a hospital and was admitted to the emergency room accelerating a downward spiral that would eventually cost the insurer tens of thousands of dollars more than the cost of the treatment she initially requested Moore s wrists still show scars from where she was cutting herself Ilana Panich Linsman special to ProPublica How Insurers Justify Denials Buried in the denial letters that insurance companies send patients are a variety of expressions that convey the same idea Improvement is a reason to deny coverage You are better Your child has made progress You have improved In one instance a doctor working for Regence Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Oregon wrote that a patient who had been diagnosed with major depression was sufficiently stable even as her own doctors wrote that she continued to display a pattern of severe impairment and needed round the clock care A judge ruled that a preponderance of the evidence demonstrated that the teen s continued residential treatment was medically necessary The insurer said it can t comment on the case because it ended with a confidential settlement In another a doctor working for UnitedHealth Group wrote in that a teenage girl with a history of major depression who had been hospitalized after trying to take her own life by overdosing was doing better The insurer denied ongoing coverage at a residential treatment facility A judge ruled that the insurer s determination lacked any reasoning or citations from the girl s medical records and found that the insurer violated federal law United did not comment on this case but previously argued that the girl no longer had concerning medical issues and didn t need treatment in a hour monitored setting To justify denials the insurers cite guidelines that they use to determine how well a patient is doing and ultimately whether to continue paying for care Companies including United have said these guidelines are independent widely accepted and evidence based Insurers most often turn to two sets MCG formerly known as Milliman Care Guidelines developed by a division of the multibillion dollar media and information company Hearst and InterQual produced by a unit of UnitedHealth s mental health division Optum Insurers have also used guidelines they have developed themselves MCG Health did not respond to multiple requests for comment A spokesperson for the Optum division that works on the InterQual guidelines said that the criteria is a collection of established scientific evidence and medical practice intended for use as a first level screening tool and helps to move patients safely and efficiently through the continuum of care A separate spokesperson for Optum also said the company s priority is ensuring the people we serve receive safe and effective care for their individual needs A Regence spokesperson said that the company does not make coverage decisions based on cost or length of stay and that its number one priority is to ensure our members have access to the care they need when they need it In interviews several current and former insurance employees from multiple companies said that they were required to prioritize the proprietary guidelines their company used even if their own clinical judgment pointed in the opposite direction It s very hard when you come up against all these rules that are kind of setting you up to fail the patient said Brittainy Lindsey a licensed mental health counselor who worked at the Anthem subsidiary Beacon and at Humana for a total of six years before leaving the industry in In her role Lindsey said she would suggest approving or denying coverage which for the latter required a staff doctor s sign off She is now a mental health consultant for behavioral health businesses and clinicians A spokesperson for Elevance Health formerly known as Anthem said Lindsey s recollection is inaccurate both in terms of the processes that were in place when she was a Beacon employee and how we operate today The spokesperson said clinical judgment by a physician which Ms Lindsey was not always takes precedence over guidelines In an emailed statement a Humana spokesperson said the company s clinician reviewers are essential to evaluating the facts and circumstances of each case But the spokesperson said having objective criteria is also important to provide checks and balances and consistently comply with federal requirements The guidelines are a pillar of the health insurance system known as utilization management which paves the way for coverage denials The process involves reviewing patients cases against relevant criteria every handful of days or so to assess if the company will continue paying for treatment requiring providers and patients to repeatedly defend the need for ongoing care Federal judges have criticized insurance company doctors for using such guidelines in cases or for a class action lawsuit involving a subsidiary of UnitedHealth has become one of the most consequential mental health cases of this century In that case a federal judge in California that a number of United s in house guidelines did not adhere to generally accepted standards of care The judge found that the guidelines allowed the company to wrongly deny coverage for certain mental health and substance use services the moment patients immediate problems improved He ruled that the insurer would need to change its practices United appealed the ruling on grounds other than the court s findings about the defects in its guidelines and a panel of judges partially upheld the decision The case has been sent back to the district court for further proceedings Largely in response to the Wit case have passed laws requiring health insurers to use guidelines that align with the leading standards of mental health care like those developed by nonprofit professional organizations that it has chosen not to adopt private proprietary medical necessity criteria like MCG But according to a review of lawsuits denial letters have continued to reference MCG One federal judge in Utah called out the company reviewed the claims under medical necessity guidelines it had disavowed Cigna did not respond to specific questions about this Timothy Stock one of the BCBS doctors who denied Moore s request to cover ongoing care had cited MCG guidelines when determining she had improved enough something judges noted he had done before In Stock upheld a decision on appeal to deny continued coverage for a teenage girl who was in residential treatment for major depression post traumatic stress disorder and anxiety Pointing to the guidelines Stock concluded she had shown enough improvement The patient s family sued the insurer alleging it had wrongly denied coverage Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Illinois argued that there was evidence that showed the patient had been improving But a federal judge found the insurer misstated its significance The judge partially ruled in the family s favor zeroing in on Stock and another BCBS doctor s use of improvement to recommend denying additional care The mere incidence of some improvement does not mean treatment was no longer medically necessary In BCBS Illinois denied coverage for a girl with a long history of mental illness just a few weeks into her stay at a residential treatment facility noting that she was making progressive improvements Stock upheld the denial after an appeal Less than two weeks after Stock s decision court records show she cut herself on the arm and leg with a broken light bulb The insurer defended the company s reasoning by noting that the girl consistently denied suicidal ideation but a judge wrote that medical records show the girl was not forthcoming with her doctors about her behaviors The judge ruled against the insurer writing that Stock and another BCBS doctor unreasonably ignored the weight of the medical evidence showing that the girl required residential treatment Stock declined to comment A spokesperson for BCBS said the company s doctors who review requests for mental health coverage are board certified psychiatrists with multiple years of practice experience The spokesperson added that the psychiatrists review all information received from the provider program and members to ensure members are receiving benefits for the right care at the right place and at the right time The BCBS spokesperson did not address specific questions related to Moore or Stock The spokesperson said that the examples ProPublica asked about are not indicative of the experience of the vast majority of our members and that it is committed to providing access to quality cost effective physical and behavioral health care A Lifelong Struggle A former contemporary dancer with a bright smile and infectious laugh Moore s love of animals is eclipsed only by her affinity for plants She moved from Indiana to Austin Texas about six years ago and started as a receptionist at a clinic before working her way up to technician Moore s depression has been a constant in her life It began as a child when she said she was sexually and emotionally abused She was able to manage as she grew up getting through high school and attending Indiana University But she said she fell back into a deep sadness after she learned in that the church she found comfort in as a college student turned out to be what she and others deemed a cult In September of last year she began an intensive outpatient program which included multiple group and individual therapy sessions every week Moore had spent much of the past eight months in treatment for severe depression post traumatic stress disorder and anxiety when BCBS said it would no longer pay for the program in January The denial had come to her without warning I was starting to get to the point where I did have some hope and I was like maybe I can see an actual end to this Moore said And it was just cut off prematurely At the Austin emergency room where she drove herself after her treatment stopped her heart raced She was given medication as a sedative for her anxiety According to hospital records she provided to ProPublica Moore s symptoms were brought on after insurance said they would no longer pay A hospital social worker frantically tried to get her back into the intensive outpatient program That s the sad thing said Kandyce Walker the program s director of nursing and chief operating officer who initially argued Moore s case with BCBS Texas To have her go from doing a little bit better to I m going to kill myself It is so frustrating and it s heartbreaking After the denial and her brief admission to the hospital emergency department in January Moore began slicing her wrists more frequently sometimes twice a day She began to down six to seven glasses of wine a night I really had thought and hoped that with the amount of work I d put in that I at least would have had some fumes to run on she said She felt embarrassed when she realized she had nothing to show for months of treatment The skills she d just begun to practice seemed to disappear under the weight of her despair She considered going into debt to cover the cost of ongoing treatment but began to think that she d rather end her life In my mind she said that was the most practical thing to do Whenever the thought crossed her mind and it usually did multiple times a day she remembered that she had promised her therapist that she wouldn t Moore s therapist encouraged her to continue calling BCBS Texas to try to restore coverage for more intensive treatment In late February about five weeks after Stock s denial records show that the company approved a request that sent her back to the same facility and at the same level of care as before But by that time her condition had deteriorated so severely that it wasn t enough Eight days later Moore was admitted to a psychiatric hospital about half an hour from Austin Medical records paint a harrowing picture of her condition She had a plan to overdose and the medicine to do it The doctor wrote that she required monitoring and had substantial ongoing suicidality The denial continued to torment her She told her doctor that her condition worsened after insurance stopped covering her treatment Her few weeks stay at the psychiatric hospital cost The remaining weeks of treatment at the intensive outpatient program the treatment BCBS denied would have cost about Bracelets and a watch cover Moore s scars from cutting herself Ilana Panich Linsman special to ProPublica Moore was discharged from the hospital in March and went back into the program Stock had initially said she no longer needed It marked the third time she was admitted to the intensive outpatient program A few months later as Moore picked at her lunch her oversized glasses sliding down the bridge of her nose every so often she wrestled with another painful realization Had the BCBS doctors not issued the denial she probably would have completed her treatment by now I was really looking forward to that Moore said softly As she spoke she played with the thick stack of bracelets hiding the scars on her wrists A few weeks later that small facility closed in part because of delays and denials from insurance companies according to staff and billing records Moore found herself calling around to treatment facilities to see which ones would accept her insurance She finally found one but in October her depression had become so severe that she needed to be stepped up to a higher level of care Moore was able to get a leave of absence from work to attend treatment which she worried would affect the promotion she had been working toward To tide her over until she could go back to work she used up the money her mother sent for her th birthday She smiles less than she did even a few months ago When her roommates ask her to hang out downstairs she usually declines She has taken some steps forward though She stopped drinking and cutting her wrists allowing scar tissue to cover her wounds But she s still grieving what the denial took from her I believed I could get better she said recently her voice shaking With just a little more time I could discharge and I could live life finally contributed research

Data YCharts Chart Axios Visuals There is a broad based desire to wrest Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac from federal control once takes office Why it matters These two companies are the backbone of the U S housing market together they support of U S mortgages Messing with their structure poses risk to the economy and at the very least could raise mortgage rates State of play Last week the Treasury Department and the Federal Housing Finance Agency which oversees the two companies released a how privatization could work In a sign that investors believe there s a real chance privatization could happen during Trump stocks of government sponsored enterprises GSEs jumped on the news Mortgage Bankers Association chief lobbyist Bill Killmer told Axios it s highly likely that the issue will at least during the new administration following several Trump did not address the GSEs during the campaign or since his election No policy should be deemed official unless it comes directly from President Trump Karoline Leavitt spokeswoman for the transition said in an email Reality check This roadmap is a memo from a lame duck administration and the incoming Trump team could simply reverse it But the idea was to put up some guardrails up so the incoming administration doesn t act too recklessly in getting rid of federal oversight said Jim Parrott who was a housing adviser in the Obama administration He describes it as a good governance move just to make sure that the new guys don t f k things up too badly Zoom in The roadmap lays out a process for privatization It requires that the federal government gather public comment before making any moves and that Treasury be involved But it doesn t go into the nitty gritty details of how the process would work The big picture Any such process would be pretty gnarly Various policymakers and politicians have been trying to do it for years without success An effort during the first Trump administration fell short Flashback Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac lost over billion after the financial crisis hit in vastly more than they had in cash They were the epitome of too big to fail so the government bailed them out by lending them billions of dollars they found themselves unable to repay Those debts were eventually restructured in a series of events that ended with the government owning of the companies and having full rights to their profits whether retained or paid out Common shareholders are left with nothing Between the lines Fannie and Freddie are now very profitable which means they would be very valuable were they fully public companies where profits flowed to shareholders However such an action would involve Treasury giving up a valuable asset while it s still owed an enormous amount of money Its liquidation preference money owed to Treasury after earnings were retained to beef up capital is from Fannie Mae alone What s next Fannie and Freddie both exist to borrow money on the capital markets at a risk free rate They can do that at the moment because they are part of the government As private companies however without a government guarantee they would almost certainly lose their triple A credit rating and their debt would be considered risky for the purposes of calculating bank capital Both things would make their borrowing costs rise substantially cutting into their profits Those higher borrowing costs would then flow through into higher mortgage rates for the general population Between the lines Most housing experts both liberals and conservatives say the key to privatization is giving these entities an explicit guarantee of a federal backstop in case things go badly In theory a procedure called can achieve this without leaving the government with a multitrillion dollar contingent liability In practice that only increases the costs of GSEs even further The bottom line No one has yet come up with a plan that extracts the GSEs from government control repays Treasury what it s owed makes sure the GSEs pose no systemic risk to the financial system and prevents mortgage rates from rising Probably because such a plan is all but impossible

President Trump has given yet more power to Elon Musk who is now leading the effort to dismantle the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau Created in response to the financial crisis the CFPB helps enforce consumer financial laws for mortgages credit cards and other financial products We speak to a former CFPB staffer Julie Margetta Morgan who says the consumer watchdog has helped recover billion lost to financial fraud and abuse in its decade plus of existence She says that Musk the world s richest man and a promoter of cryptocurrency is attempting to eliminate sources of regulatory oversight as he plans to turn the social media company X which he owns into a payments platform The thing that stands in his way is having strong regulators who will make him play by the same rules as every other bank The actions over the last few weeks have been incredibly bad for individual everyday Americans but incredibly good for Elon Musk s pocketbook This is a rush transcript Copy may not be in its final form AMY GOODMAN President Trump signed an executive order Tuesday to give more power to the world s richest man Elon Musk He s been leading the effort to dismantle numerous government agencies including USAID and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau Musk heads the newly established DOGE Department of Government Efficiency which claims it s looking at ways to reduce government waste But a new by The New York Times reports Musk has been targeting many of the federal agencies and officials who have been engaged in investigations of Musk s own multiple companies including Tesla SpaceX Neuralink and the social media platform X The Times reports quote At least federal agencies that have been affected by those moves have more than continuing investigations pending complaints or enforcement actions into Mr Musk s six companies unquote On Monday hundreds of protesters rallied outside the offices of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau after Trump and Musk moved to shut down the agency s headquarters and cut off its funding This is Democratic Senator Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts who s credited with creating the CFPB SEN ELIZABETH WARREN Look these damn billionaires are making their moves right out in the open Look at Elon please No just look He invested million to buy an election for Donald Trump And now he is right here to collect on that investment Elon Musk owns X which has been losing money like crazy So Elon has a plan for a new payment platform called xMoney Elon wants xMoney to touch every part of your financial life But but Elon has got a problem the financial cops The CFPB is there to make sure that Elon s new project can t scam you or steal your sensitive personal data So Elon s solution Get rid of the cops Kill the CFPB AMY GOODMAN That was Senator Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts speaking at a protest outside the closed headquarters of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau We re joined right now by Julie Margetta Morgan the former associate director for research and monitoring and regulations at the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau She left a few weeks ago Welcome to Democracy Now It s great to have you with us Julie Can you explain I mean all the information that s coming out right now first of all what the CFPB does who it does it for and what Elon Musk has to gain This week all the workers got a stop work order and they closed the headquarters And oh let me just say one other thing JULIE MARGETTA MORGAN Sure AMY GOODMAN Didn t Elon Musk say on his social media platform X he just put out CFPB RIP with a tombstone JULIE MARGETTA MORGAN Thank you for having me today Amy You know this is really critical for all Americans The CFPB is the place where Americans could go when they were scammed by a payday lender or when they couldn t get inaccurate information taken off their credit report or when big banks like Wells Fargo were opening fake accounts in their name And the CFPB again and again delivered for American families Over its entire history the CFPB has returned billion to American families So you know this is a little agency that was punching well above its weight And then just a few days ago you know Donald Trump and Elon Musk took control and shut the agency down So we went from a place where you know in the last week before Trump took power the CFPB was ordering big companies to return millions of dollars to consumers to a place where the agency is doing nothing at all And you raised the role of Elon Musk here I think this is a fact that we really have to focus on Elon Musk himself wants to run a payments company He has said from the start that he plans to turn X into essentially a bank And he s taken steps in that direction in the last few weeks including a partnership with Visa The thing that stands in his way is having strong regulators who will make him play by the same rules as every other bank Luckily he has access to the entire federal government and he is able to simply shut those regulators down So the actions over the last few weeks have been incredibly bad for individual everyday Americans but incredibly good for Elon Musk s pocketbook JUAN GONZÁLEZ And for those people who are not familiar could you talk a little bit about the battle to get the to create the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau Only in the aftermath of the financial meltdown of did the Obama administration move to create it But it s always faced enormous hostility hasn t it from the financial especially from the financial community JULIE MARGETTA MORGAN Yeah that s right I think it s incredibly important to know that the CFPB was born out of a financial crisis that started in the mortgage markets So before the financial crisis we didn t have a cop on the beat watching what mortgage servicers particularly non bank mortgage servicers were doing And as a result we ended up in a massive financial crisis that took us years to dig out of President Obama Elizabeth Warren and others worked together to create the CFPB It was created in a bipartisan fashion But it s had a target on its back from the start And you know when we look at the particularly when I was at CFPB when we went out and talked to consumers around the country there was nothing partisan or controversial about the CFPB when it came to the work that it was delivering for Americans The only place where CFPB is really controversial is in Washington D C with big bank lobbyists and tech company lobbyists So from the start they ve had a target on CFPB I think this is one more step in their plan to get rid of the agency and they ve never had more power to be able to dismantle it JUAN GONZÁLEZ And in terms of some of the biggest achievements could you enumerate some of them for our listeners JULIE MARGETTA MORGAN Sure So CFPB has achieved some really big achievements for individual consumers I think that our crackdown on Wells Fargo that ended their campaign of issuing fake accounts in people s names is a really big one But just in the last couple of years we ve had some really big wins for families including a credit card late fees rule that limited late fees from to a rule that limited overdraft fees to and I think really importantly taking medical debt off of people s credit reports So in the time that I was at CFPB we did a lot of research on the impact of medical debt and we found that a lot of the medical debt that was being reported on people s credit reports was inaccurate and then people were being hounded by debt collectors over debts that they didn t owe So these actions are incredibly consequential for American families and now they re all being put at risk by Donald Trump and Elon Musk s agenda AMY GOODMAN Let s go to Elon Musk in this very odd news conference that President Trump sitting at the Resolute Desk and Elon Musk standing next to him with his child on his shoulders held This is Musk ELON MUSK Democracy This may seem like well are we in a democracy Well if you don t have a feedback loop X Æ A XII MUSK inaudible ELON MUSK OK X we would have to if you sorry I tell you gravitas can be difficult sometimes So if there s not a good feedback loop from the people to the government and if you have rule of the bureaucrat if the bureaucracy is in charge and then what meaning does democracy actually have AMY GOODMAN So Julie Margetta Morgan if you could respond to what Elon Musk said at that point his child just standing next to him JULIE MARGETTA MORGAN I think it s incredibly bold for him to stand there and suggest that he s creating a feedback loop between the people and the government The CFPB itself was a feedback loop between the people and the government Individuals could actually file a complaint on CFPB s website and have the certainty that the agency was going to you know look into that complaint and not only resolve it for them individually but also look at broader actions by the companies that people complained about and take action through our enforcement or supervision divisions So Elon Musk is actually doing the opposite of what he s claimed He s shutting down those feedback loops for people And he s doing it for his own personal gain AMY GOODMAN So Julie Margetta Morgan as we wrap up at this point how can the CFPB can it be resurrected And if you could finally comment on Russell Vought the head of the OMB who was one of the chief architects of Project how that fits into the shuttering of CFPB JULIE MARGETTA MORGAN Yes Russell Vought is in charge of the CFPB right now and he s taking an ax to all of the pieces of CFPB that have been the most helpful for consumers To your original question it s not too late for CFPB I expect that we ll see action in the court I believe we ve already seen a few cases filed here because I think it s just really important to know that the actions they re taking are illegal You know the CFPB is responsible to Congress for completing certain activities including having a robust supervision program that s kind of like the cop on the beat inside of the largest institutions And so you know as much as they re doing the best that they can to dismantle CFPB right now these actions are illegal and I expect we ll see the courts step in AMY GOODMAN Julie Margetta Morgan thanks so much for being with us former associate director for research monitoring and regulations at the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau She left a few weeks ago

Reporting Highlights Company Doctors Insurance company doctors make crucial recommendations on mental health treatment Court Rulings Judges have repeatedly criticized some insurance companies and their doctors for denying this coverage Business as Usual Companies continue using the same psychiatrists in spite of the harsh rulings These highlights were written by the reporters and editors who worked on this story In a New Orleans courtroom one afternoon this April three federal appeals court judges questioned a lawyer for the country s largest health insurance company They wanted to know why United Healthcare had denied coverage for a year old girl named Emily Dwyer whose anorexia had taken such a toll on her body that she had arrived at a residential treatment facility wearing her year old sister s jeans The company s lawyer explained that United s denial came after three separate psychiatrists working on behalf of the insurer concluded that Dwyer was no longer engaging in concerning behaviors not over exercising and not struggling as much at meals As a result United s doctors agreed that after five months she didn t need the additional treatment at the facility that her own doctors said was essential The judges on the th U S Circuit Court of Appeals didn t appear to buy it Judge Andrew Oldham said he didn t understand how the insurance company s lawyer could stand by a defense that seems to be not true The record is teeming teeming with concerning behaviors a frustrated Oldham said Oldham according to a recording of the hearing ticked off a list Dwyer he said compulsively checked her body She altered her gait so that her thighs didn t touch as she walked And during a three day weekend meant to see how she would do away from the facility she lost a couple of the hard earned pounds she had gained while in treatment How in the world can you say Oh well that s not a problem Oldham who had been named to the appeals court by President Donald Trump asked at the hearing United s approach the judge said essentially boiled down to We ll just gamble with her life Many Americans have faced the denial of mental health treatment by their insurance companies at times despite vivid evidence of the risk such decisions pose In most cases patients don t appeal But in a tiny percentage patients and their families decide to fight the denials in federal court setting up a David versus Goliath battle where insurers frequently have the upper hand The cases ProPublica found expose in blunt terms how insurance companies can put their clients health in jeopardy in ways that some judges have ruled arbitrary and capricious To do so court records reveal the insurers have turned to a coterie of psychiatrists and have continued relying on them even after one or more of their decisions have been criticized or overturned in court In their rulings judges have found that insurers in part through their psychiatrists have acted in ways that are and even The companies have engaged in of the medical evidence to medical opinions that opposed their conclusions and made in court Doctors reviewing the same cases have even repeated in denial letters casting on whether they re independent Some doctors made critical errors contradicted by the very records they claimed they reviewed according to thousands of pages of court documents interviews and insurance records Ruling after ruling reveals how they failed to meaningfully engage with patients families or medical providers or to adequately explain their decisions And when insurers have faced pushback over why they re denying treatment they have sometimes abandoned one rationale and shifted to other grounds to deny coverage In dozens of court cases ProPublica found judges ruled that insurance companies had violated a federal law meant to protect people who get health insurance through their jobs The companies in several cases also broke a provision in designed to end discrimination between coverage of mental health and medical claims As a federal judge of one company last year the insurer was applying separate and unequal treatment limitations to mental health patients The U S Department of Labor which regulates health insurance plans for about million Americans is responsible for making sure that insurance companies are loyal to the patients not just to the company s bottom line Grant Vaught a spokesperson for the federal agency said it has opened some investigations into the conduct of the individual doctors and psychiatrists employed by insurers but declined to specify an exact number One case resulted in the removal of a doctor and the review organization they worked for Vaught did not elaborate on whether physicians in any other cases faced professional repercussions Agency officials said they don t have the budget or staff to adequately police insurers Despite to Congress for more funding and stronger enforcement tools the agency has not received much of what it asked for ProPublica reached out to six insurance companies that court records show have continued to rely on doctors who judges found wrongly recommended denying mental health coverage The doctors aren t named as parties in the lawsuits but their decisions are included in complaints exhibits and judgments None of the insurers responded to questions about whether they take those repeated cases into account by say refraining from using those doctors or whether there s a need for reform Optum the United unit responsible for mental health and the other insurance companies said they employ licensed physicians to conduct reviews An Optum spokesperson said the company requires its doctors to undergo testing each year to make sure they are issuing appropriate coverage decisions and the company conducts regular audits of doctors decisions Our priority is ensuring the people we serve receive safe and effective care for their individual needs the spokesperson said These denials which frequently come when patients are in the thick of treatment can have grave consequences Patients have into alcohol or drug use become violent or after prematurely leaving mental health facilities To keep Emily in treatment the Dwyers would have to burn through their savings and refinance the mortgage on their home in Austin Texas They also wrote to the insurance company hoping to persuade it to continue paying but United wouldn t budge Her parents came to suspect that the company had broken the law But if they wanted to prove it they d have to go to court A Striking Lack of Care Taking on United wasn t going to be easy Dwyer s first denial had come in June after her treatment team couldn t convince a United staff psychiatrist that she was critically ill At the time Dwyer s body image was distorted and she constantly shook her legs to burn calories Her red blood count hemoglobin levels and blood pressure were all low Dwyer still suffered from many of the same symptoms when about one month later United tapped another company doctor for an additional review as insurers often do By then her family had already reluctantly agreed to move her down from residential treatment to partial hospitalization but had to pay about a day for costs the insurance company would not cover Then the insurer denied even partial hospitalization The Dwyers didn t give up and the facility filed an appeal For that review United turned to Prest Associates a firm that health insurers hire to review cases like Dwyer s The firm referred the case to psychiatrist Dr Barbara Center Dwyer s psychologist her primary care provider and the Austin doctor who diagnosed her eating disorder got on the phone with Center and described the disastrous weekend away from the facility according to court records During that weekend while Dwyer was shopping with her mom she broke down in tears when she saw her reflection in a dressing room mirror Her doctors pleaded with United to continue covering her treatment But Center recommended that United uphold the denial Center specialized in child and adolescent psychiatry after graduating from medical school She joined Prest Associates as a reviewer in and within five years was promoted to chief medical officer of the company according to her resume She is licensed as a doctor in at least states In some cases her reviews took place early on in the process and were a jumping off point for other doctors in others she served as the final word In a sworn deposition Center said that she earned a base salary plus additional pay contingent on productivity or the time it takes her to review a case In the years before the Dwyers April hearing in the federal appeals court Center s recommendations were referenced in at least lawsuits around the country that alleged insurers had wrongly denied insurance coverage to patients who needed intensive mental health care Four of those lawsuits ended in rulings in favor of the insurer in which judges found that Center s denial as alleged the insurers and the plan Out of the other eight cases ProPublica identified four ended in confidential settlements with no admission of wrongdoing by the insurers one in a partial judgment in favor of the insurer and a partial settlement and three in judgments finding the insurance company had improperly denied coverage one of which was appealed and then settled The most came in the year before Center reviewed Dwyer s appeal Center was assigned to assess the case of a year old woman with an eating disorder severe depression and suicidal thoughts A United doctor had already recommended denying a request for the woman to remain at a California hospital Center wrote that the woman was not suicidal when her medical records showed she was actively planning to either overdose or starve herself to death Center also incorrectly listed her weight a key detail given her anorexia And she

convince her parents that she was going for a walk when she was actually retrieving sneakers she had stashed in the neighbor s hedges and exhausting herself on hourlong runs At she was not to be underestimated The oldest of four girls she excelled at almost everything Straight A s in her liberal arts and science magnet school A lively friend group Medals in cross country Experts have found that many anorexia patients are high achievers who set nearly impossible standards for themselves That was the case for Dwyer who said her extreme drive included succeeding at her eating disorder By January her parents pulled her out of school They could finally see through the lies she was telling them about having already eaten at school or needing to stay through dinner to work on a project If she ate at all it would take her hours to get through a meal When her family was sleeping she would wake up at a m to secretly exercise in her bedroom They took her to Dr Ed Tyson who specializes in eating disorders and who diagnosed Dwyer with anorexia He told her parents she was in danger and desperately needed residential treatment He made it clear that the treatment would be successful only if she completed it In February when the Dwyers made the trip from Austin to an eating disorder treatment center near the mountains of Utah Emily weighed pounds Records show her body mass index which compares someone s weight relative to their height was dangerously low at She was lethargic and hollow eyed As her father Kelly drove from the airport to the facility he caught sight of his daughter in the rearview mirror with her head in her mother Allison s lap He knew that she wouldn t survive without the treatment The team at the facility placed Dwyer on a calorie a day diet and hour monitoring In addition to the anorexia her doctors diagnosed her with anxiety depression and severe malnutrition She refused to engage with her therapists I was not willing to think deeply or be reflective of anything Dwyer said in a recent interview I was very angry When United issued its denial after five months saying she was ready for intensive outpatient treatment her parents knew she wasn t They consulted Tyson who emphasized that releasing their daughter prematurely would increase the likelihood of her needing residential treatment again and could put her health at grave risk Emily was still struggling so it would be difficult to get all the food that she would need Tyson said in an interview with ProPublica Pretty soon the other physical parameters would start to go south The red blood cells the white blood cells The heart muscle gets smaller The muscle itself becomes weaker so when it pumps it can t pump as hard For Kelly Dwyer a lawyer who counsels clients on mergers and acquisitions facing the prospect of releasing her too early was too much to bear He couldn t imagine putting Emily back in a facility if she relapsed The first time when she clung to him in those final moments it was the hardest thing he d ever had to do I never ever wanted to do it again he said Without so much as a whisper to their daughter they filled out the paperwork to refinance their mortgage In nearly two years after the initial denial the Dwyers sued United for wrongfully denying coverage In a federal district judge held a trial that lasted about minutes but it took him nearly four years to issue a decision He ruled in favor of United The Dwyers appealed Talk about delayed justice said the Dwyers lawyer Elizabeth Green who previously worked at Kantor s firm which took the case on contingency meaning without any guarantees that it would get paid Most lawyers in these kinds of cases take them on a contingency basis The federal appeals court just one level below the U S Supreme Court didn t take nearly so long to issue a ruling In September about five months after hearing the case the three judge panel of the th U S Circuit Court of Appeals reversed that decision and ruled unanimously in favor of the Dwyers The judges led by Oldham dissected the denial letters issued by the three doctors and found they were not supported by the underlying medical evidence In fact the judges wrote they were contradicted by the record When United denied Emily Dwyer s coverage the judges wrote she was still very ill Judges have repeatedly warned insurance companies that they cannot ignore the opinions of the doctors who are actually treating the patients What s more they must explain how they engaged with them As in many cases examined by ProPublica the psychiatrists reviewing Dwyer s treatment used boilerplate language in their denial letters and failed to provide or offer a sufficient explanation We therefore join a growing number of decisions rejecting similar denial letters issued by United across the country Oldham and his fellow judges wrote The Dwyers recognize the privilege that allowed them to pay for their daughter s continued treatment without knowing if or when they d get their money back They also understood how to navigate the legal system Their goal in addition to getting reimbursed was to make it harder for insurance companies to kick children out of treatment when they need it For their daughter the extra seven weeks made all the difference That time Emily said in an interview forced her to confront her eating disorder and get comfortable in her new body She had gained more than half of what she weighed when she arrived in Utah but she made a point of avoiding knowing her weight She developed deep connections with the other girls in the program and witnessed them battle the same compulsions Toward the end of her time there she even mentored new patients and earned a key to the bathroom one of the final steps before going home No insurance company doctor Dwyer said could understand her situation in a quick call to her doctors even if she had reached her target weight You can t just make this decision wipe your hands and leave work for the day she said Your actions have real consequences When the Dwyers learned from ProPublica that Center had rejected their appeal about a year after a judge had issued the blistering opinion against her in a different case her denial stung even more It was maddening to hear that she has been involved in multiple lawsuits that have been settled or where a judge found the insurer wrongfully denied coverage There is no accountability Allison Dwyer said A New Beginning Of all the girls Emily Dwyer met while in treatment most relapsed or needed to be readmitted to a residential facility The treatment definitely saved my life said Dwyer who is now I have no doubt that if I left in July I would have relapsed Afraid that her high school would buzz about the anorexic girl who was so sick she had to spend months at a facility out of state she transferred schools Her first year back was filled with doctor and therapy appointments She had sprouted inches during and after treatment which meant she was still significantly shorter than the rest of the family but at least she was growing again She was so determined to prove that she was better that she once hid batteries in her pockets during a weigh in When she moved away for college she still struggled But in her junior year Kyle a boy she met at freshman orientation became more than a friend He thought she was the most beautiful person in the world on the inside and out and for the first time since she got sick she began to see herself in that way This summer they married on a clear September day in a redwood grove in California her brown hair swept up in a loose braid that fell onto her shoulders Three weeks after her wedding she started her second year at Stanford Law School She has traded in her running shoes for a yoga mat and is working to perfect her stew recipe Most mornings she and Kyle eat breakfast together before he heads out to teach English to fifth graders and she pulls out her bike for the minute ride to campus contributed data analysis

by and with research by ProPublica is a nonprofit newsroom that investigates abuses of power Sign up to receive as soon as they re published This article contains descriptions of mental illness eating disorders and suicide In a New Orleans courtroom one afternoon this April three federal appeals court judges questioned a lawyer for the country s largest health insurance company They wanted to know why United Healthcare had denied coverage for a year old girl named Emily Dwyer whose anorexia had taken such a toll on her body that she had arrived at a residential treatment facility wearing her year old sister s jeans If you or someone you know needs help Call the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline Text the Crisis Text Line from anywhere in the U S to reach a crisis counselor The company s lawyer explained that United s denial came after three separate psychiatrists working on behalf of the insurer concluded that Dwyer was no longer engaging in concerning behaviors not over exercising and not struggling as much at meals As a result United s doctors agreed that after five months she didn t need the additional treatment at the facility that her own doctors said was essential The judges on the th U S Circuit Court of Appeals didn t appear to buy it Judge Andrew Oldham said he didn t understand how the insurance company s lawyer could stand by a defense that seems to be not true The record is teeming teeming with concerning behaviors a frustrated Oldham said Listen to Judge Andrew Oldham respond to a lawyer for United Healthcare Oldham according to a recording of the hearing ticked off a list Dwyer he said compulsively checked her body She altered her gait so that her thighs didn t touch as she walked And during a three day weekend meant to see how she would do away from the facility she lost a couple of the hard earned pounds she had gained while in treatment How in the world can you say Oh well that s not a problem Oldham who had been named to the appeals court by President Donald Trump asked at the hearing United s approach the judge said essentially boiled down to We ll just gamble with her life Many Americans have faced the denial of mental health treatment by their insurance companies at times despite vivid evidence of the risk such decisions pose In most cases patients don t appeal But in a tiny percentage patients and their families decide to fight the denials in federal court setting up a David versus Goliath battle where insurers frequently have the upper hand Editor s Note Over the past two years ProPublica and other news outlets have reported on how for millions of Americans both for physical and As part of our reporting process we seek comment from people named in our stories Following the shooting of United Healthcare CEO Brian Thompson each of the companies we reported on for this story asked us not to name their doctors out of concern for their safety the doctors who responded to our questions made similar requests We take concerns for safety seriously and weigh them against the need for transparency and accountability We decided to name only those doctors whose work was examined in multiple lawsuits and who were cited in publicly available court records The cases ProPublica found expose in blunt terms how insurance companies can put their clients health in jeopardy in ways that some judges have ruled arbitrary and capricious To do so court records reveal the insurers have turned to a coterie of psychiatrists and have continued relying on them even after one or more of their decisions have been criticized or overturned in court In their rulings judges have found that insurers in part through their psychiatrists have acted in ways that are and even The companies have engaged in of the medical evidence to medical opinions that opposed their conclusions and made in court Doctors reviewing the same cases have even repeated in denial letters casting on whether they re independent Some doctors made critical errors contradicted by the very records they claimed they reviewed according to thousands of pages of court documents interviews and insurance records Ruling after ruling reveals how they failed to meaningfully engage with patients families or medical providers or to adequately explain their decisions And when insurers have faced pushback over why they re denying treatment they have sometimes abandoned one rationale and shifted to other grounds to deny coverage In dozens of court cases ProPublica found judges ruled that insurance companies had violated a federal law meant to protect people who get health insurance through their jobs The companies in several cases also broke a provision in designed to end discrimination between coverage of mental health and medical claims As a federal judge of one company last year the insurer was applying separate and unequal treatment limitations to mental health patients The U S Department of Labor which regulates health insurance plans for about million Americans is responsible for making sure that insurance companies are loyal to the patients not just to the company s bottom line Grant Vaught a spokesperson for the federal agency said it has opened some investigations into the conduct of the individual doctors and psychiatrists employed by insurers but declined to specify an exact number One case resulted in the removal of a doctor and the review organization they worked for Vaught did not elaborate on whether physicians in any other cases faced professional repercussions Agency officials said they don t have the budget or staff to adequately police insurers Despite to Congress for more funding and stronger enforcement tools the agency has not received much of what it asked for ProPublica reached out to six insurance companies that court records show have continued to rely on doctors who judges found wrongly recommended denying mental health coverage The doctors aren t named as parties in the lawsuits but their decisions are included in complaints exhibits and judgments None of the insurers responded to questions about whether they take those repeated cases into account by say refraining from using those doctors or whether there s a need for reform Optum the United unit responsible for mental health and the other insurance companies said they employ licensed physicians to conduct reviews An Optum spokesperson said the company requires its doctors to undergo testing each year to make sure they are issuing appropriate coverage decisions and the company conducts regular audits of doctors decisions Our priority is ensuring the people we serve receive safe and effective care for their individual needs the spokesperson said These denials which frequently come when patients are in the thick of treatment can have grave consequences Patients have into alcohol or drug use become violent or after prematurely leaving mental health facilities To keep Emily in treatment the Dwyers would have to burn through their savings and refinance the mortgage on their home in Austin Texas They also wrote to the insurance company hoping to persuade it to continue paying but United wouldn t budge Her parents came to suspect that the company had broken the law But if they wanted to prove it they d have to go to court A Striking Lack of Care Taking on United wasn t going to be easy Dwyer s first denial had come in June after her treatment team couldn t convince a United staff psychiatrist that she was critically ill At the time Dwyer s body image was distorted and she constantly shook her legs to burn calories Her red blood count hemoglobin levels and blood pressure were all low I was far from being ready to go home and maintain an active recovery Dwyer said in a recent interview Ilana Panich Linsman special to ProPublica Dwyer still suffered from many of the same symptoms when about one month later United tapped another company doctor for an additional review as insurers often do By then her family had already reluctantly agreed to move her down from residential treatment to partial hospitalization but had to pay about a day for costs the insurance company would not cover Then the insurer denied even partial hospitalization The Dwyers didn t give up and the facility filed an appeal For that review United turned to Prest Associates a firm that health insurers hire to review cases like Dwyer s The firm referred the case to psychiatrist Dr Barbara Center Dwyer s psychologist her primary care provider and the Austin doctor who diagnosed her eating disorder got on the phone with Center and described the disastrous weekend away from the facility according to court records During that weekend while Dwyer was shopping with her mom she broke down in tears when she saw her reflection in a dressing room mirror Her doctors pleaded with United to continue covering her treatment But Center recommended that United uphold the denial Center specialized in child and adolescent psychiatry after graduating from medical school She joined Prest Associates as a reviewer in and within five years was promoted to chief medical officer of the company according to her resume She is licensed as a doctor in at least states In some cases her reviews took place early on in the process and were a jumping off point for other doctors in others she served as the final word In a sworn deposition Center said that she earned a base salary plus additional pay contingent on productivity or the time it takes her to review a case In the years before the Dwyers April hearing in the federal appeals court Center s recommendations were referenced in at least lawsuits around the country that alleged insurers had wrongly denied insurance coverage to patients who needed intensive mental health care Four of those lawsuits ended in rulings in favor of the insurer in which judges found that Center s denial as alleged the insurers and the plan Out of the other eight cases ProPublica identified four ended in confidential settlements with no admission of wrongdoing by the insurers one in a partial judgment in favor of the insurer and a partial settlement and three in judgments finding the insurance company had improperly denied coverage one of which was appealed and then settled The most came in the year before Center reviewed Dwyer s appeal Center was assigned to assess the case of a year old woman with an eating disorder severe depression and suicidal thoughts A United doctor had already recommended denying a request for the woman to remain at a California hospital Center wrote that the woman was not suicidal when her medical records showed she was actively planning to either overdose or starve herself to death Center also incorrectly listed her weight a key detail given her anorexia And she undercounted the number of laxatives the woman was taking saying she took to a day when the treatment notes repeatedly said The case made it all the way up to the th U S Circuit Court of Appeals where in a unanimous opinion the judges wrote that Center s independent evaluation and coverage decision were based on obvious factual errors The court wrote that a third doctor quoted nearly verbatim from Center s erroneous report The judges concluded there was a striking lack of care by all three psychiatrists The Labor Department filed a friend of the court

much to bear He couldn t imagine putting Emily back in a facility if she relapsed The first time when she clung to him in those final moments it was the hardest thing he d ever had to do I never ever wanted to do it again he said Without so much as a whisper to their daughter they filled out the paperwork to refinance their mortgage In nearly two years after the initial denial the Dwyers sued United for wrongfully denying coverage In a federal district judge held a trial that lasted about minutes but it took him nearly four years to issue a decision He ruled in favor of United The Dwyers appealed Talk about delayed justice said the Dwyers lawyer Elizabeth Green who previously worked at Kantor s firm which took the case on contingency meaning without any guarantees that it would get paid Most lawyers in these kinds of cases take them on a contingency basis The federal appeals court just one level below the U S Supreme Court didn t take nearly so long to issue a ruling In September about five months after hearing the case the three judge panel of the th U S Circuit Court of Appeals reversed that decision and ruled unanimously in favor of the Dwyers The judges led by Oldham dissected the denial letters issued by the three doctors and found they were not supported by the underlying medical evidence In fact the judges wrote they were contradicted by the record When United denied Emily Dwyer s coverage the judges wrote she was still very ill Judges have repeatedly warned insurance companies that they cannot ignore the opinions of the doctors who are actually treating the patients What s more they must explain how they engaged with them As in many cases examined by ProPublica the psychiatrists reviewing Dwyer s treatment used boilerplate language in their denial letters and failed to provide or offer a sufficient explanation We therefore join a growing number of decisions rejecting similar denial letters issued by United across the country Oldham and his fellow judges wrote The Dwyers recognize the privilege that allowed them to pay for their daughter s continued treatment without knowing if or when they d get their money back They also understood how to navigate the legal system Their goal in addition to getting reimbursed was to make it harder for insurance companies to kick children out of treatment when they need it For their daughter the extra seven weeks made all the difference That time Emily said in an interview forced her to confront her eating disorder and get comfortable in her new body She had gained more than half of what she weighed when she arrived in Utah but she made a point of avoiding knowing her weight She developed deep connections with the other girls in the program and witnessed them battle the same compulsions Toward the end of her time there she even mentored new patients and earned a key to the bathroom one of the final steps before going home A collage made by a friend of Dwyer s from treatment Ilana Panich Linsman special to ProPublica No insurance company doctor Dwyer said could understand her situation in a quick call to her doctors even if she had reached her target weight You can t just make this decision wipe your hands and leave work for the day she said Your actions have real consequences When the Dwyers learned from ProPublica that Center had rejected their appeal about a year after a judge had issued the blistering opinion against her in a different case her denial stung even more It was maddening to hear that she has been involved in multiple lawsuits that have been settled or where a judge found the insurer wrongfully denied coverage There is no accountability Allison Dwyer said A New Beginning Of all the girls Emily Dwyer met while in treatment most relapsed or needed to be readmitted to a residential facility The treatment definitely saved my life said Dwyer who is now I have no doubt that if I left in July I would have relapsed The fact that they can look at papers or numbers and decide when someone is ready for something that s just ridiculous Dwyer said in a recent interview lana Panich Linsman special to ProPublica Afraid that her high school would buzz about the anorexic girl who was so sick she had to spend months at a facility out of state she transferred schools Her first year back was filled with doctor and therapy appointments She had sprouted inches during and after treatment which meant she was still significantly shorter than the rest of the family but at least she was growing again She was so determined to prove that she was better that she once hid batteries in her pockets during a weigh in When she moved away for college she still struggled But in her junior year Kyle a boy she met at freshman orientation became more than a friend He thought she was the most beautiful person in the world on the inside and out and for the first time since she got sick she began to see herself in that way This summer they married on a clear September day in a redwood grove in California her brown hair swept up in a loose braid that fell onto her shoulders Three weeks after her wedding she started her second year at Stanford Law School She has traded in her running shoes for a yoga mat and is working to perfect her stew recipe Most mornings she and Kyle eat breakfast together before he heads out to teach English to fifth graders and she pulls out her bike for the minute ride to campus contributed data analysis
