‘It’s a flat-out lie!’ Elizabeth Warren exposes GOP’s shutdown bullsh-t
Democratic senator Elizabeth Warren from Massachusetts appeared on CBS News Friday, where she took the host Tony Dokoupil on the task after echoing a GOP discussion point without context On undocumented immigrants receiving health insurance.
“So, the senator, you know, the Republicans say that for which you really fight, it is dollars of taxpayers, as they say, illegal foreigners,” started Dokoupil. “I know it is not strictly true, but there is a provision -“
“- Excuse me? Not strictly true ”? Warren interrupted. “It’s a lie outright. There is nothing in Medicaid, there is nothing in Medicare which allows an undocumented immigrant to obtain $ 1 of aid.
Warren then clarified this East “Strictly true.”
“What we are saying is that whenever the hospitals lend care of it, what will be the level of reimbursement? And the Republicans said that it would be a low level. The Democrats said:” We just want to come back to the level that it was before because you are going to go bankrupt hospitals. “You will put rural hospitals on bankruptcy,” she said.
And she is right.
Since the GOP adopted President Donald Trump’s “One Big Bill”, rural hospitals have closed In anticipation of the massive cups in Medicaid.
Instead of taking responsibility, now the GOP is Double work To blame the democrats and immigrants from scapegoats, hoping that fear and disinformation will dissipate the fact that their policies close hospitals and force people to leave their health insurance.
