A major Massachusetts hospital group will no longer automatically file child abuse or neglect reports for babies who are born with illegal drugs in their systems.Mass General Brigham‚ the states largest hospital network‚ announced Tuesday that babies born with substance exposure will no longer be immediately reported to state welfare agencies unless there are other concerns that the baby is being abused or neglected.Substance exposure alone‚ including treatment with methadone or buprenorphine for opioid use disorder‚ does not require a report of abuse or neglect in the absence of protective concerns for the infant‚ Mass General Brigham said in a Tuesday release.An abuse or neglect report to the state should only be filed if there is reasonable cause to believe that the infant is suffering or at imminent risk of suffering physical or emotional injury under the new policy.Under the new policy‚ hospitals will also require written consent outside of emergencies before conducting a drug test on newborns or mothers.The hospital system cited racial and ethnic inequities‚ saying that more punitive approaches to substance abuse during pregnancy disproportionately affect Black individuals.Studies including some within our system have found that Black pregnant people are more likely to be drug tested and to be reported to child welfare systems than white pregnant people‚ the hospital system said.The previous reporting requirement for babies born with drugs in their systems was criticized because it included women taking opioid addiction medications like buprenorphine or methadone‚ which babies can be born dependent on.Some women have reported stopping their medications out of fear of losing custody of their babies.The new policy is meant to reduce stigma and improve access to substance abuse treatment‚ the hospital group said.Our new perinatal testing and reporting policy is the latest step in our efforts to address longstanding inequities in substance use disorder care and to provide compassionate‚ evidence-based support to families‚ while addressing substance use disorder as a treatable health condition‚ said Sarah Wakeman‚ the hospital systems senior medical director for substance use disorder.The goal here is balancing the safety of infants and families‚ Wakeman said.A positive toxicology test does not tell you anything about someones ability to parent. Actually‚ a positive buprenorphine test tells you this person is engaged in treatment.Mass General Brigham has labor rooms in bothMassachusetts and New Hampshire.Boston Medical Center previously made a similar change to its policy on reporting newborns born dependent on drugs their mother was taking.

The Biden administration is taking steps to reinforce job protections for bureaucrats as Trump pledges to gut the administrative state if he is reelected in November.The plan from the Biden administration‚ which Politico reported is almost finished as of Thursday‚ would make it harder for presidents to remove civil service protections from federal bureaucrats‚ thus making them more difficult to fire.Bidens new policy appears to be a response to former President Trumps plan to gut the administrative state if he is reelected‚ in part by reimplementing Schedule F‚ an executive order that would strip civil service protections from some bureaucrats. Bidens plan to strengthen job protections for bureaucrats comes as the Democrat president has embedded diversity‚ equity‚ and inclusion (DEI) as well as far-Left gender ideology throughout the federal government.Under the new plan‚ implemented by the Office of Personnel Management‚ bureaucrats whose jobs have civil service protections would not lose those protections upon their roles being reclassified‚ though those who believed their protections could be at risk would be able to submit an appeal with the independent Merit Systems Protection Board. A future president would also have to clear a number of procedural barriers in order to reclassify existing personnel roles into categories that do not enjoy civil service protections.Office of Management and Budget Deputy Director Jason Miller celebrated the new rule‚ calling bureaucrats the backbone of our federal government in a statement. President Biden has made strengthening and empowering the federal workforce a top priority from his very first day in office‚ Miller remarked. He knows that career civil servants are the backbone of our federal government‚ providing the expertise and experience necessary for our democracy to function.CLICK HERE TO GET THE DAILYWIRE+ APPBut the Biden administration has leveraged the federal workforce in the service of ideological ends‚ issuing executive orders directing the bureaucracy to embrace the DEI agenda and embed it throughout its practices. The National Security Agency‚ for example‚ produced a DEI glossary‚ exclusively obtained by The Daily Wire‚ that included terms like white fragility‚ queer theory‚ settler colonialism‚ and the gender-neutral pronouns ze and zir.Even the United States top intelligence authority‚ the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI)‚ has been captured by far-Left ideologues. A newsletter sent by ODNI to the entire Intelligence Community‚ including intelligence components within each branch of the military‚ as well as the FBI‚ CIA‚ and NSA‚ urged agents to avoid using hurtful language when discussing Islamic terrorism. It even included an article from an anonymous intelligence official who claimed that crossdressing makes him a better intelligence agent.As Biden strengthens civil service protections‚ former President Donald Trump and his allies are preparing to gut the federal bureaucracy‚ a plan that will likely be made more difficult by Bidens new rule. We will pass critical reforms making every executive branch employee fireable by the President of the United States‚ Trump said at a rally‚ touting the plan. The deep state must be brought to heel.Others are preparing to fill in the gap left by outgoing officials‚ assembling a personnel database of those who might serve in the next administration through the Project 2025 Presidential Transition Project‚ an initiative from the Heritage Foundation that seeks to pave the way for an effective conservative Administration.

U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken said overseas on Thursday that Israel is on the verge of becoming indistinguishable from Hamas‚ the Foreign Terrorist Organization (FTO) responsible for murdering 1‚200 people on October 7 and wounding thousands more.Blinken made the remarks while speaking in Brussels shortly after the White House released a readout of a conversation that President Joe Biden had with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu earlier in the day.Biden attacked Israel for the humanitarian situation inside Gaza‚ calling it unacceptable‚ even though Israel has worked to allow aid to flow into the area‚ but has had to do so in a manner that prevents weapons from entering. Biden also seemed to suggest that Israel was responsible for Hamas not freeing the hostages that it kidnapped more than six months ago.What happened after October 7 could have ended immediately if Hamas had stopped hiding behind civilians‚ released the hostages and put down its weapons‚ but Israel is not Hamas‚ Blinken said. Israel is a democracy; Hamas‚ a terrorist organization. Democracies place the highest value on human life‚ every human life. As it has been said‚ whoever saves a life‚ saves the entire world.Blinken then suggested that Israels military campaign against Hamas risks making the country indistinguishable from the terrorist organization even though Israel has taken unprecedented steps to minimize civilian casualties‚ including warning civilians to evacuate areas where Israel would conduct military operations.CLICK HERE TO GET THE DAILYWIRE+ APPThats our strength. Its what distinguishes us from terrorists like Hamas‚ Blinken said. If we lose that reverence for human life‚ we risk becoming indistinguishable from those we confront.Blinken claimed that important steps that Israel has taken to allow assistance into Gaza were woefully insufficient and unacceptable.Blinken claimed that 100 percent of the population in Gaza knows acute levels of food insecurity. 100 percent of the population is in need of humanitarian assistance.WATCH:Secretary of State Blinken implies Israel is increasingly becoming indistinguishable from Hamas in losing a reverence for human life: And I made clear then the commitment of the United States to Israel';s security and to ensuring that Oct. 7 could never happen again.
