I almost went to the Capitol on January 6, 2021. I was creating my masters thesis podcast and first heard about it in early December 2020. I planned to bring my recording gear and get tape and everything. But in late December, I decided not to go. Can't decide whether I made the right choice

'Nobody wants to come': What if the U.S. can no longer attract immigrant physicians? Immigrants make up a significant proportion of all the country's doctors. New policies are making it harder and less appealing for foreign-born physicians to come to the U.S.

"In rural communities, and in some subspecialties of medicine, the reliance on immigrant physicians runs much higher. In primary care and specialties like oncology, for example, foreign-born doctors account for about half of the workforce." www.npr.org/sections/sho...

Gov. Sanders sets March 2026 dates for two special elections Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders scheduled special elections for Senate District 26 and House District 70, despite calling the court orders to do so "unlawful."

In the proclamation, Gov. Sanders described the court orders as unlawful eight different times. Ozarks at Large asked the governor's office why they are complying with the court order if they believe it is unlawful. Her office did not respond to our request for comment.

Local radio reporting isn't free to make. But we give it to you for free. That counterintuitive model doesn't make business sense, but it's core to our mission that good local journalism should be accessible to everyone, even if you can't afford to pay for it. Support public media today.

Not a fun AP headline to wake up to this morning. Many public radio stations, like the one I work for, are working hard to make sure this major loss in funding that was approved does not prevent us from doing the work our community needs.
