VA secretary pledges progress on EHR rollout amid workforce cuts; GSA inks deal with Elastic to discount products for agencies

Veterans Affairs Secretary Doug Collins attempted to assuage lawmakers' concerns Tuesday over how the agency plans to deliver critical health tech services amid drastic cuts to its workforce. Appearing before the Senate Appropriations Military Construction, Veterans Affairs, and Related Agencies Subcommittee, Collins said the VA is full steam ahead on planned deployments of its oft-troubled electronic health record at additional facilities, and is also pushing forward on the rollout of its External Provider Scheduling tool. The VA said in February that it had dismissed 1,000 employees, while the Associated Press reported in March that it planned to cut 80,000 staffers. The Oracle EHR system, meanwhile — plagued by technical problems since its launch during the first Trump administration — is scheduled to be deployed at 13 medical facilities by 2026. A suite of Elastic products will be discounted for agencies by up to 60% under a new deal announced Tuesday by the General Services Administration. The agreement, part of the GSA's OneGov strategy to modernize how the government purchases goods and services, will give agencies access to discounts of Elastic's self-managed solution starting at 27.5%, climbing to higher savings based on governmentwide annual spending. Stephen Ehikian, GSA's acting administrator, said in a press release that the pact “represents a significant step in our efforts to drive cost efficiencies and modernize IT infrastructure across the federal government.” Additionally, discounts start at 15% for FedRAMP Moderate cloud deployments via GovCloud, jumping to 32% at the top volume tier. The pricing options are locked in for orders made prior to Sept. 30, 2027. The Daily Scoop Podcast is available every Monday-Friday afternoon.

In this episode of The Smart Property Investment Show, host Phil Tarrant and Eva Loisance from Finni Mortgages explore how family pledges and guarantor loans can help overcome traditional deposit barriers in property investment. The duo explains how family pledges and guarantor loans let buyers use a relative's property equity to secure up to 105 per cent of the purchase price, bypassing deposits and lender's mortgage insurance (LMI). Eva stresses that although many Australians rely on slower traditional methods or government assistance, families who use pledges can enter the market faster, save on LMI costs, and enjoy greater flexibility than government schemes. However, risks include the buyer's full repayment responsibility and potential loss of the guarantor's property if repayments fail, with Eva highlighting the importance of legal advice and clear agreements to protect all parties. She says that ultimately, leveraging family pledges and guarantor loans empowers investors to act proactively and accelerate their property ownership goals.

In this week's International Report, RFI's Jan van der Made takes a closer look at the recent Romanian elections, in which centrist candidate Nicușor Dan secured a decisive victory over his far-right rival, George Simion.  On 26 May, pro-EU centrist Nicușor Dan was sworn in as President of Romania, having vowed to oppose “isolationism and Russian influence.”Earlier, Dan had emerged victorious in a closely contested election rerun, widely viewed as pivotal for the future direction of the NATO and EU member state of 19 million people, which shares a border with war-torn Ukraine.The vote followed a dramatic decision by Romania's Constitutional Court five months prior to annul a presidential election, citing allegations of Russian interference and the extensive social media promotion of the far-right frontrunner—who was subsequently barred from standing again.Although nationalist and EU-sceptic George Simion had secured a commanding lead in the first round, Dan ultimately prevailed in the second-round run-off.RFI speaks with Claudiu Năsui, former Minister of Economy and member of the Save Romania Union, about the pressing challenges facing the country—from economic reform and political polarisation to the broader implications of the election for Romania's future, including its critical role in supporting Ukraine amid ongoing regional tensions.

Senator Aric (Eric‑with‑an‑A) Nesbitt says Michigan's tumbling into the bottom‑ten club thanks to Governor Whitmer's spend‑and‑tax spree, busted roads, and a Green New “Scam” that carpets farmland with Chinese solar panels. He warns the state will lose 700 k people over the next generation unless it slams on the progressive brakes and embraces lower taxes, abundant energy, and business‑friendly rules. On the bright side, he touts wins brokered with President Trump—F‑15s for Selfridge, a fast‑tracked Line 5 tunnel, and stricter border security—as proof conservative governance delivers. Running for governor, Nesbitt pitches a back‑to‑basics playbook: fix roads without new taxes, block foreign land grabs, keep energy cheap, and make Michigan the place where people want to live, work, and build again.Quick‑hit takeawaysMichigan in the cellar: Whitmer's policies dragged the state to 43rd/44th in national rankings—broken roads, broken schools, ballooning spend, and a $9 billion surplus “printed away.”Population cliff: Stay the course and Michigan could bleed 700 k residents in 30 years—“poorer, dumber, with fewer opportunities.”Why he's running: Nesbitt frames the 2026 race as a fork in the road: status‑quo decline vs. a pro‑growth reset.Trump partnership wins: Selfridge lands F‑15s and hundreds of jobs; Line 5 tunnel fast‑tracked, securing propane for 400 k homes.Green New “Scam”: Dem energy law will industrialize 300 k farm/forest acres with subsidized Chinese solar panels—angering rural voters and handing the GOP a 2026 rallying cry.Farmland sovereignty: Pledges to block foreign (read: Chinese) land buys that threaten food security.Roads without tax hikes: Fix infrastructure by reprioritizing, not raising taxes.Make‑things‑in‑Michigan agenda: Lower taxes, faster permits, reliable cheap energy, right‑to‑work restored, “capital follows the path of least resistance.”Border & security brag: Cites Trump's 99.98 % drop in illegal crossings, vows to keep momentum.Get in touch: directs voters to NesbittForGovernor.com and social platforms for Q&A and events.

The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 1: 3:05pm- In response to the Trump Administration's reciprocal tariff, the S&P 500 fell nearly 1% on Monday—and is now down 14% over the last three days of trading. It has lost more than $5 trillion in value since the beginning of last week. Meanwhile, the Dow Jones Industrial Average has declined by more than 20% from its recent high, entering correction territory. 3:30pm- On Monday, President Donald Trump met with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in the Oval Office. During the meeting Trump answered numerous questions from the press—many regarding tariffs and the U.S. economy. Netanyahu pledged to eliminate the trade deficit between the U.S. and Israel and reduce tariffs on U.S. imports to 0%. 3:50pm- China has vowed to place an additional 34% tariff on U.S. imported goods—matching the tariffs the Trump Administration announced against Chinese-made products. In a post to Truth Social, Trump warned that if China retaliates, he will impose an additional 50% tariff on their goods effective on April 9th. Trump continued: “Negotiations with other countries, which have also requested meetings, will begin taking place immediately.” Weekday afternoons on Talk Radio 1210 WPHT, Rich Zeoli gives the expert analysis and humorous take that we need in this crazy political climate. Along with Executive Producer Matt DeSantis and Justin Otero, the Zeoli show is the next generation of talk radio and you can be a part of it weekday afternoons 3-7pm.
