I see some angry jihadis are up and about, glossing over their past histories. That’s cool.

The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) announced today increased federal oversight to stop states from misusing federal Medicaid dollars to cover health care for individuals who are in the country illegally. Under federal law, federal Medicaid funding is generally only available for emergency medical services for noncitizens with unsatisfactory immigration status who would otherwise be Medicaid-eligible, but some states have pushed the boundaries, putting taxpayers on the hook for benefits that are not allowed.
“Medicaid is not, and cannot be, a backdoor pathway to subsidize open borders,” said CMS Administrator Dr. Mehmet Oz. “States have a duty to uphold the law and protect taxpayer funds. We are putting them on notice—CMS will not allow federal dollars to be diverted to cover those who are not lawfully eligible.”
*Some* libs know this. That’s the cadre of angry, mendacious liberals who know what their policies enable. Camp 2 of liberalism doesn’t really follow the news and has no idea.
The democrat party funding model has ever been to buy votes with taxpayer dollars. You see it manifest itself in Medicaid abuse and outright fraud in many places. It’s just who they are.
