Other than the doofus brothers of Muskrat and Navarro, not one of these GOP lawmakers or members of the Trump Administration will ever commit to the amount of dollars are going to eventually be cut from social programs. They all know there is no way to make that big of cuts and survive.

🚨BREAKING: 👀 Interview in a red state nursing home with elderly MAGA supporter Ned Brownshorts: “If President Musk says Social Security is a Ponzi scheme rife with fraud, then me and mine are willing to do without.” Duly noted by Big Balls and the DOGE team, Ned.

The significant fraud in Medicaid &/or Medicare has usually been found on the provider side. Just ask some of those now in Congress. Is DOGE looking there?

elliot66.bsky.social•4 days ago

Start with cutting RFK jr.

cjmiller124.bsky.social•4 days ago

So much fraud, so few charges...

horn-slack.bsky.social•4 days ago

Still waiting on DOGE to share details of their fraud findings.

It wasn't fraud. It was cold-hearted theft of tax dollars.

Why has nobody been charged with fraud yet if they found all this fraud?

Waste? Misuse? Fraud? Bobby Junior is all of those.

Bobby, resign.

So they cut that much money from budget?

chambersol.bsky.social•4 days ago

Head of HHS effectively saying that Medicaid cuts are coming, but preparing to frame it as “cutting waste.” Too bad they see low income and chronically ill Americans as waste.

sandypuke.bsky.social•4 days ago

Nobody would disagree with RFK on this would they?
But he hasn’t answered the question. Nor does anyone provide evidence of the iniquity he suggests. Least of all those proclaiming it needs to be tackled.

abigailcolter.bsky.social•4 days ago

How does cutting the Medicaid budget make Medicaid better? These DOGE-ers do not cut out the fraud, they cut across the board. Most of what they call fraud is just stuff they don't understand, don't care about, and refuse to educate themselves about.

deboraht.bsky.social•3 days ago

Oh goodie. Now I have to hear what this monster has to say about Medicaid. He probably thinks it causes autism.

eddie0028.bsky.social•4 days ago

Then he should resign.

kenw8.bsky.social•3 days ago

So, he’s self-selecting and offering to be fired? I mean he’s perhaps the biggest fraud on the Cabinet.

paul.ofthenorth.ca•4 days ago

RFK Jr is a fraud. Therefore, I expect his resignation tomorrow morning.

Yeah, mmhmm.

Don't forget, "fraud" to these people is anything that helps people be smarter or healthier.

gblosser.bsky.social•4 days ago

Please show us the fraud. PLEASE. It seems like you’re just throwing out numbers with no empirical support as a pretext to making cuts. It’s cruel.

beth-in-wisconsin.bsky.social•4 days ago

And show us some arrests. Fraud IS a crime, Bobby.

hopperhat.bsky.social•4 days ago

All this double talk. Did she stutter? I heard her ask about Medicaid.

gabeburgess.bsky.social•4 days ago

So fraud like the $1.7 billion Rick Scott stole from Medicare.

They can start by firing RFK jr

It’s all a scam. They’re going to extend the tax cuts, explode the deficit and debt, and leave the mess for the next POTUS. Unconscionable.

RFK is a fraud, they should remove him and save the money.

So they will fine medical doctors and pharmaceuticals? That is who is committing the fraud.

From my own peripheral experience, the preponderance of Medicaid and Social Security (read:”Disability”) fraud appears to be generated by magat people.

There is no substantial fraud there. These people are just making shit up as they go along.

McCallum is a Trump fluffer and Kennedy is a fucking fruitcake.

A single-provider system, like the Veterans Health Administration, is far less susceptible to fraud than a single-payer system like Medicaid. Either way, the government pays. Why not expand the VA to treat everyone?

whatup7.bsky.social•4 days ago

So they want to cut people’s health insurance to pay for the billionaire freeloaders who don’t want to pay taxes. What’s the point of having all the money in the world of you don’t want to pay ur fair share on taxes?
