Supreme Court Rejects Planned Parenthood’s Medicaid Challenge

BREAKING: The U.S. Supreme Court has just announced a pivotal ruling that dismisses Planned Parenthood‘s challenge against South Carolina, allowing the state to bar the organization from its Medicaid program. This decision clears the way for South Carolina to strip vital funding from Planned Parenthood, impacting healthcare access for many in the region.

In another urgent development, a Minnesota judge has overturned the conviction of Abdifatah Yusuf and his wife, who were found guilty of misappropriating over $7 million in Medicaid funds. The couple was previously convicted in August 2025 for allegedly using stolen funds to support a lavish lifestyle while operating a healthcare business from their home. Jurors expressed disbelief at the judge’s decision, stating the evidence clearly pointed to their guilt.

“I’m shocked based on all of the evidence that was presented to us,” said one juror. This reversal has sparked outrage among community members and legal experts alike, who view it as a significant miscarriage of justice.

As authorities continue their investigation, a search is intensifying for a 19-year-old woman who has been missing since Christmas Eve. Family and friends gathered early Saturday morning to comb through neighborhoods near her home, hoping to find any clues about her whereabouts.
