That is all she said over payments an Illegal immigrants getting payments. And no I don't know how widespread this is. Any is too much.
Lying?
You base this on the ones saying it are in the GOP.
The house bill is at least an 800B cut to Medicaid via increased administrative burdens which have been proven to do jack shit except prevent paying out for coverage.
There is not a nearly trillion dollars worth of illegals accessing a program they cannot access in the first place. When somebody pisses in your face and says it’s raining you don’t have to believe them.
We know you would sink an entire ship coming into the US if it contained 10% illegals. Your M.O.From the article:
She isn't wrong. Nobody gets out alive...
I have no issues with making corrections to stop over payments and illegals receiving benefits.
The biggest Medicare Fraud was committed by Rick Scott. A Republican Senator.Yes its all about 10 dollars.
But they already do that. Do you suspect that with budgetary cuts, they'll be able to do it harder?CMS (Center for medicare and Medicaid Services) and the states are responsible for program integrity and verifying eligibility, particularly for Medicaid.

Rational people should go about examining the pros and cons of every action they take.
Regardless of the pros of stopping payments that are being made incorrectly, I'd like to think that our politicians would at least acknowledge that the possibility that "people are going to die" as a con. Saying "well, we are all going to die" pretty clearly indicates that she does not see it as a con.
Are you really comfortable with this?
Who, in your estimation, should be denied medical care?Fiscal Year 2024 Improper Payments Fact Sheet | CMS
The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) is committed to being a responsible steward of public funds and to promoting the sustainability of its programs for future generations. While CMS’ improper payments reporting programs are designed to protect the integrity of CMS programs, it is...www.cms.gov
I understand that improper payments are not always fraud or abuse. A lot of the time it is administrative documentation issues. I don't see where you get the "low single digits" from. Either way it needs to be corrected.
As for the millions getting thrown off health care it is because they are ineligible for medicare / medicaid. That is what the goal is remove those that do not qualify.

MAGA definitely a death cult.But this is what they want.. more dead people!
And please comment in the stupid people thread..
Only winners get to write the history books.
Ernst just guaranteed her landside re-election victory.
Given your posting history, I cannot tell if you are serious.Ernst just guaranteed her landside re-election victory.

Do you feel Republicans benefit when they directly tell voters to !@#$ off and die?
Now remember when you view this guy’s predictions that he thought Democrats would lose races they won by 40+ points so when he talks about ‘blunting losses’ as compared to his baseline we are talking about like a 40 point swing.It's barely a blip on the news.
It didn't move the needle AT ALL in 2024.
It's over as an issue that will swing elections. It blunted Dem losses in 2022 and that was it.
You can eliminate the first parts of both statements:For conservatives, the following statements about supporting policies are true.
1. The policy doesn't negatively effect me or my immediate loved ones and it hurts people I don't identify with = conservatives support it, also it's "freedom".
2. The policy doesn't positively effect me or my immediate loved ones and it helps people I don't identify with = conservatives don't support it, also it's "socialism".
Apply these two statements to any policy anywhere and it will hold true for any conservative. They might as well be considered laws of conservative policy approval. There's probably a zeroth law that can be sussed out.
Perhaps 0. is Fuck you got mine = "' 'Merica".
Disagree. Look at People like Dick Cheney. Gay marriage was for America-haters until his daughter came out.You can eliminate the first parts of both statements:
1. The policy hurts people I don't identify with = conservatives support it, also it's "freedom".
2. The policy helps people I don't identify with = conservatives don't support it, also it's "socialism".
They don't give a fuck if it hurts them personally or helps them personally, or anyone they know. When a policy hurts them, they'll publicly ask Daddy Trump to fix it. Then, when they're told that Trump and the GOP did it, they'll tell themselves "it is good for the nation" and/or that Democrats made them do it.
Sure some of the old school might change, but a lot of the new school is ride or die, and not afraid to die. Look at the polio parents with dead kids still refusing to vaccinate their still alive kids.Disagree. Look at People like Dick Cheney. Gay marriage was for America-haters until his daughter came out.
Look at LiberalParodyTroll who has been very vocal on here about how he wants taxpayer funded healthcare because his body hates him and wants to kill him.
They support or don't care about policy that hurts other people, or are against policy that helps other people...until they are specifically affected, then they change their minds.
They lack empathy for people other than themselves or their immediate loved ones, which is what makes them inherently terrible people who usually cling to religion to pretend to be moral, since inherently they are amoral at best, and more likely immoral and only adopt morals when those morals personally benefit themselves.
I just got a week off Twitter for asking Joni why she wasn't dead yet.Read it yourself.
