Ah yes. Denying me food and medical coverage will clearly help with my disability.
Make sure to give that money to the ultra wealthy as a bonus for destroying the planet

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

At this point I can only say "if each of us take a few with us before we go the world might end up better some day."
Rest assured, they are also planning tax cuts.
Why? We pay for Medicaid. It’s not like this is from the general fund. So, what they want to do is steal that money you paid for Medicaid and pay for their other bullshit priorities like mass deportation or more tax cuts for rich people.
Republicans war against the poor is the only thing that matters to them. How christlike.
Leopards are gonna get so fat.
Nothing will meaningfully improve until the rich fear for their lives
Because everyone loves their United-CVS-Kaiser Healthcare, right?
you have just listed all 3 reasons I'm looking to become an immigrant
Damn those pesky democrats for doing this to us! /s
The "Your Parents Have Gotten Old Enough, Haven't They?" Act.
This is for Medicaid not Medicare.
- Medicaid = covers poor people
- Medicare = covers old people
So this is the "How can we fuck poor people even harder" act.
Most old people are also poor, checkmate!
And people on disability have Medicare and Medicaid so fuck them too
I always get those mixed up.
"Care for the elderly and aid the poor" was how it was explained to me once.
Big theft from the American Public on GOPs plans*
Fixed the title
Watch as Ruben "immediately betrays democrats" Gallego is all for $6 trillion in Medicaid cuts. Arizona just can't catch a break.
Did something already happen with him that makes you think this would happen? I haven't seen anything that negative about him since he was elected so I'd really appreciate you saying your rationale.
