Waste, Fraud, And Abuse

When you cut off Medicaid funding to an entire state, you’re not hurting fraudsters.

You’re hurting children.

You’re hurting the disabled.

You’re hurting the poor and marginalized.

You’re hurting the chronically ill.

Taking away people’s healthcare is cruel. https://t.co/0AIHEdmy8M

They’ve killed two Minnesotans and injured or kidnapped hundreds more.

Now they’re stealing their Medicaid.

They’re going to deny people healthcare because of a YouTube video about a Somali daycare scam that wasn’t even true.

This will kill people. It’s murder by policy. https://t.co/Gak1kbRCal

I led SDNY’s health care fraud prosecutions for years. You don’t cut off Medicaid for people who need it to stop fraudsters who abuse it. This isn’t a War on Fraud. It’s a War on Minnesota. https://t.co/kRrZdjaOri

But Tom Homan pulled ICE out of Minnesota, right? The same Tom Homan who wants to school Pope Leo XIV on Catholic doctrine?

I’m guessing JD Vance will want to explain “just war” to Pope Leo, too.

COLLINS: Can you explain to the American people why the US would need to strike Iran to stop them from getting a nuclear weapon if the US 'obliterated' their enrichment program last summer?

JD VANCE: I'm not going to make any news on Iran today pic.twitter.com/1NgBCwWmyg
