Construction crews were busy Monday putting a new roof on top of Highland Hills Medical Center. The Senatobia hospital is in line to receive federal funds via the state under the Rural Health Transformation Program to help with facility improvements and workforce development.

But details of how that will filter down to Highland Hills, Tate County’s hospital in Senatobia, remain to be seen.

President Trump is a master at keeping attention on himself, but when he goes too far he exposes himself to criticism.
Sometimes this is well deserved. A good example is the recent news that his Justice Department has issued subpoenas to leaders of the Federal Reserve over Senate testimony about the $2.5 billion cost of renovating the central bank’s 90-year-old building in Washington.

Among the dumbest rhetoric mindlessly repeated by putatively conservative Mississippi senators is “no public dollars to private schools.”
