Anne Neuberger, the U.S. deputy national security advisor for cyber and emerging technology, told reporters that proposed requirements are necessary in light of the massive number of Americans whose data has been affected by large breaches of healthcare information. The proposals include encrypting data so it cannot be accessed, even if leaked, and requiring compliance checks to ensure networks meet cybersecurity rules. The healthcare information of more than 167 million people was affected in 2023 as a result of cybersecurity incidents, she said. The proposed rule from the Department of Health and Human Services would update standards under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) and would cost an estimated $9 billion in the first year, and $6 billion in years two through five, Neuberger said.

Large healthcare breaches caused by hacking and ransomware have increased by 89% and 102%, respectively, since 2019, she said. "In this job, one of the most concerning and really troubling things we deal with is hacking of hospitals, hacking of healthcare data," Neuberger said. Hospitals have been forced to operate manually and Americans' sensitive healthcare data, mental health information and other information are "being leaked on the dark web with the opportunity to blackmail individuals," Neuberger said. The Department of Health and Human Services did not immediately respond to a request for comment. Additional reporting by Raphael Satter in Washington; Editing by Chizu Nomiyama
Right-wing activist Laura Loomer has warned Donald Trump that he could be impeached if he allows tech billionaire Elon Musk to continue influencing future policy decisions, amid an online debate about visas for foreign workers. Loomer and other conservative commenters claimed on Thursday that they were stripped of their verification badges on X after they criticized Musk’s support of H-1B visas for highly skilled foreign workers. In an X post, Loomer wrote that there was a "full censorship of my account simply because I called out H-1B visas. This is anti-American behavior by tech oligarchs. What happened to free speech?" Vivek Ramaswamy called 'con man' after H1-B backlash as he fails to deflect Trump stays silent as MAGA implodes over Musk and Vivek's immigration stance In an interview with Steve Bannon, Loomer added that she believed Donald Trump ’s affiliation with Musk would threaten his second term in office. "If he [Musk] is a free speech absolutist, why was my account suspended? I lost my verification, my blue check because Elon Musk does not like what I said,” she said.

I am simply trying to warn the Trump administration about something that's going to blow up in their face, & it has the risk of potentially getting President Trump impeached" pic.twitter.com/jBhxc33KIN — Aaron Rupar (@atrupar) December 27, 2024 “I am simply trying to warn the Trump administration about something that's going to blow up in their face, and it actually has the risk of potentially getting President Trump impeached in his second term if the Democrats take back the House and are successfully able to spin and create a narrative that Big Tech is trying to buy influence and enriching themselves in the Trump administration." The debate about H-1B visas began this week when Loomer criticized Trump’s selection of Sriram Krishnan as an adviser on artificial intelligence policy in his coming administration. Krishnan favors the ability to bring more skilled immigrants into the US. Loomer declared the stance to be “not America First policy,” adding that tech executives who have aligned themselves with Trump were doing so to enrich themselves. Musk weighed in on Wednesday, saying America had too few "talented" and "motivated" engineers and needed "to recruit top talent wherever they may be." "Loomer is trolling for attention. Ignore," Musk posted on X.

THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: It was a botched balancing act in 2008 that caused a fallout between then and the Left -- and redefined national politics. When the NDA government was ousted from power after a gap of eight years in 2004, a Congress-led government assumed office with the help of allies. The Left parties, including CPM, CPI, RSP and Forward Block, decided to offer outside support. Things were looking up as the UPA- Left coordination committee was set up to further policy discussion. It was during this time that many important pieces of legislation were enacted by the first UPA government, including MGNREGA, Right to Information Act and Forest Rights Act. The crucial role enjoyed by the Left in these efforts and the corruption-free image of the PM helped the UPA gain popularity. UPA-I took a left-of-centre position on many key issues, thanks in no small part to the backing of the Left parties. However, friction came to the fore in 2005 when the government tried to disinvest Bharat Heavy Electricals Ltd (BHEL). A known hardliner, CPM general secretary Prakash Karat and a section of leaders were critical of the plan. They ended up accusing Singh of being a crusader for globalisation and neo-liberal policies. The Left started boycotting the coordination committee. The parties, however, climbed down from their position on receiving assurances from Sonia and the PM. The real challenge came when the Singh government decided to go ahead with the India-US civil nuclear deal in 2008. The Left were of the view that the deal is part of the game plan to make India a proxy of America. Finally, on July 8, 2008, they decided to withdraw support over the deal. However, who is to blame is more a question for history to answer. “The CPM’s West Bengal unit and senior leader Sitaram Yechury were against withdrawing support,” a former central committee member told TNIE on condition of anonymity. “Intense deliberations were held in the politburo and central committee. However, the Kerala unit led by Pinarayi Vijayan supported then general secretary Prakash Karat and leaders like S Ramachandran Pillai. There was also criticism in the party that the CPM was giving unconditional support to the UPA government’s misdeeds. Hence, we wanted to prove that the party had an independent stand,” he added. In the Congress, too, leaders such as Ahmed Patel, political secretary to Congress president Sonia Gandhi, were not happy with the way Singh handled the situation. After the Left withdrew its support, the second UPA government, which was in power from 2009 to 2014, was mired in several corruption charges. Many top bureaucrats who served the government at the time were of the view that the Left presence would have helped the government avoid such controversies. “The Left support would have ensured a counter balance,” former principal secretary T K A Nair said in an interview that was run as part of the ‘Express Dialogues’ series. The corruption charges ultimately paved the way for NDA’s return to power. Singh was also viewed as a weak PM as coalition partners took matters into their own hands. The Left also suffered as a result. The CPM lost the chance to remain a force to reckon with in national politics. It also marked the beginning of the Left decline in the country. Singh, on his part, faced the Left campaign politically. Addressing campaign meetings in Kottayam and Kollam in April 2011 he said, “Our Left friends are on the wrong side of history. They fail to recognise the very fundamental ways the world we live in has changed, and is changing.” He also alleged that the Left parties sought to “garb in ideology their political opportunism”.Manchester United's defense has been under scrutiny in recent weeks due to injuries to key players Victor Lindelof, Jonny Evans, and Luke Shaw.

It’s not 2016 again. President-elect Donald Trump is off to a strong start with markedly fewer obstructions than the last time he won. In football terms, he has a lot of green space ahead of him. In nautical terms, it’s plain sailing. In political terms, it might not be a honeymoon, but no one is throwing any furniture, either. Naturally, there are all sorts of potential pitfalls. Some of Trump’s more controversial cabinet picks could, if confirmed, blow up once they are in place (does anyone believe that RFK, Jr.’s tenure at Health and Human Services will be smooth and uneventful?). Republicans only have two votes to spare in the House. Events will take a hand, and so will Trump’s mercurial nature. We are in a much different place than eight years ago, though. When Trump won in 2016, the shock to the system was so great that the body politic reacted strongly and reflexively. Trump was treated as a virus and every antibody attacked him, from activists in the street to the director of the FBI. This time, the reaction is much more muted. Despite all the fevered warnings of an existential threat to democracy, when former top Kamala Harris advisers did an election post-mortem on the podcast “Pod Save America,” they talked about how they could do better next time — in other words, there will be a next time. Despite the insistence of his enemies that Trump can’t be “normalized,” he’s been an inescapable fixture of American politics for about a decade now, with at least another four years ahead (he could well continue to dominate the Republican Party even after his second term ends). Like it or not, Trump is mainstream. He shows up at those most American events — football games and MMA fights — and gets applause. He eats McDonald’s. He himself is part of the pop culture. The time, unlike in 2016, there were no protests after he won the election, or any effort to get so-called faithless electors to keep him from assuming office. There is no cloud of illegitimacy over his victory. He won more convincingly than in 2016, carrying the popular vote and denying his opponents the opportunity to say he only won via the technicality and anachronism of the Electoral College. There has been no widely believed conspiracy theory — spun out of vaporous nonsense and hysteria — that his victory was the result of collusion with a hostile foreign power. Relatedly, this time Trump doesn’t have a bogus investigation hanging over his head. The Russiagate probe blighted the initial years of his first term. Now, the legal decks are clearing. Whereas Special Counsel Robert Mueller was about to enter the stage after Trump won in 2016, Special Counsel Jack Smith is exiting it. As Trump enters office a second time, he is going to be less legally encumbered than he’s been in years. In 2016, Trump got elected despite a catastrophic unfavorable rating in the polling. This time, he was closer to a break-even favorable/unfavorable rating in some pre-election surveys, and he’s ticked upward since. In a recent CBS poll, 59% of people said they approve of his transition. If in 2016 it felt like Trump faced a stiff head-wind at the outset, this time he has the wind — or at least a pleasant breeze — at his back. Trump is already looming much larger than the incumbent president who, with the exception of the pardon of his son, has nearly disappeared. When Biden shuffles off the stage he won’t, like Hillary Clinton , be complaining that Trump stole the election from him. If Biden is going to be bitter about anything, it will be about the machinations that denied him a Democratic nomination that he had already won. None of this means that Trump is guaranteed success in the crucial first two years of his presidency. But the conditions favor him in a way they decidedly didn’t eight years ago. Twitter: @RichLowry
