Rudy Giuliani, the former mayor of New York City and a long-time ally of President Donald Trump, has been hospitalized in Florida, where he remained in "critical but stable condition," a spokesperson told The New York Times on Sunday.

"Mayor Rudy Giuliani is currently in the hospital, where he remains in critical but stable condition," the spokesperson said. "Mayor Giuliani is a fighter who has faced every challenge in his life with unwavering strength, and he's fighting with that same level of strength as we speak. We do ask that you join us in prayer for America's Mayor-Rudy Giuliani."

It remains unclear why Giuliani was hospitalized.

Giuliani's hospitalization happened months after the former mayor was "seriously injured" in a car crash in New Hampshire last year. Giuliani has also attended recent court hearings virtually because of his health, according to reports.

President Donald Trump called on Republicans to impeach House Minority Leader Rep. Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) on Sunday after Jeffries criticized the Supreme Court.

Trump's comments followed a statement Jeffries released last week in which he described the Supreme Court as "illegitimate" after its decision in Louisiana v. Callais. The case struck down Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act, which prohibits racial gerrymandering. Experts have warned that the decision could disenfranchise millions of voters across the nation.

"Hakeem Jeffries, a Low IQ individual, said our Supreme Court is 'illegitimate,'" Trump wrote on Truth Social. "After saying such a thing, isn’t he subject to Impeachment? I got impeached for A PERFECT PHONE CALL. Where are you Republicans? Why not get it started? They’ll be doing this to me!"

Trump's call for impeachment happened at a time when the GOP is gearing up for a consequential 2026 midterm election. Democrats have said they will impeach Trump "on day one" if they take back the House of Representatives after the election.

A newly reported failure of the Trump administration’s ability to handle sensitive private information in the social programs it is tasked with operating triggered a fresh wave of anger over the weekend after it was revealed that healthcare providers’ Social Security numbers were made public as part of a faulty Medicare portal rollout.

The Washington Post discovered the compromised database and alerted the administration last week, before publishing a story about it on Friday, after efforts had been made to protect the sensitive information from further compromise. According to the Post:

The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) last year created a directory to help seniors look up which doctors and medical providers accept which insurance plans, framing it as an overdue improvement and part of the Trump administration’s initiative to modernize health care technology.

But a publicly accessible database used to populate the directory contains some of the providers’ Social Security numbers, linked to their names and other identifying information. For at least several weeks, CMS made the database available for public use as part of its data transparency efforts.

While the reporting noted that the files were “not immediately visible to users who [visited] the provider directory,” lawmakers and experts said the compromised information would be a treasure trove for fraudsters.“

The more we learn about how the Trump Administration handles the people’s most sensitive data, the clearer their incompetence becomes.”

Critics pounced on the new reporting, calling it “yet another mess-up by the Team Trump” and only the latest evidence that the administration cannot and should not be trusted to protect the nation’s most successful anti-poverty programs or the sensitive personal data of the American people who entrust the government with that information.

“Over and over again, the Trump administration is exposing private Social Security data,” said Social Security Works, an advocacy group that serves as a public watchdog for the nation’s social programs.

The compromised database, said the group, “is a goldmine for identity thieves, scammers, and foreign governments. And it is undermining the very foundation of our Social Security system.”

“This is a failure by this administration,” said Sen. Ruben Gallego (D-Ariz.) in response to the reporting. “Exposing Social Security numbers, whether patients or providers, is unacceptable.”

Rep. Richard Neal (D-Mass.), the ranking member of the House committee that oversees the Medicare program, put the onus on his Republican colleagues in Congress.

“The more we learn about how the Trump Administration handles the people’s most sensitive data, the clearer their incompetence becomes,” Neal told the Post in a statement. “Do House Republicans need to see their own data exposed before they do right by their constituents and act?”

In March, as Common Dreams reported at the time, a whistleblower filed a complaint with the Social Security Administration accusing a former staffer with Trump’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), run for a time by right-wing billionaire Elon Musk, of trying to share information from SSA databases with his private employer.

Since the outset of Trump’s second term, DOGE’s meddling with Social Security and Trump’s undermining of the program have been the source of deep anger and concerns among the program’s defenders.

In a social media post on Saturday citing the whistleblower allegations from March, Rep. John Larson (D-Conn.) said, “For more than a year, ‘DOGE’ has been combing through the American people’s records. They want to use your data to overturn elections and profit in the private sector. Enough! This administration must be held accountable for this massive data breach!

On Friday, responding to the Post’s new reporting about the compromised database of physicians’ private information, Larsen condemned Republicans for their ongoing and pervasive failures in the face of Trump’s malfeasance and incompetence.

DOGE, said Larsen, “has been in your data for more than a year. We just learned that physicians’ Social Security numbers were publicly exposed in an online portal launched by ‘DOGE’ officials.”

“If this isn’t enough for Republicans to act,” he asked, “where will they draw the line?”
