That sucks. But maybe we can make up for it by instituting a wealth tax in California? And maybe an asset seizure of republican bigwigs that have assets there. Seems fair to me.

If I were the California governor, I would suspend all federal tax payments for California employees and hold them in a bank account until the Medicare was restored
You have to fight fire with fire and that is fucking bullshit

Interesting how he keeps getting away with being the president for the 33% (but not really) and not all of America. There is no actual plan for making things better, just vengeance.

Punishing the sick and the elderly for not being MAGA enough.
Real classy.

Dipstick in chief knows over 6,000,000 Californians voted for him right?
Bet they’re glad because Harris had a weird laugh or something.

Ngl I wouldn’t mind seeing a Democrat president come in a screw over red states as payback. We got Mr Nice Guy with Biden and they still vote for the pedo conman

Texas currently ranks # 1 in Medicaid fraud in the nation according to Congresses own report on the matter.
3 of the top 4 fraud states are red states that voted for Trump

Who’s gonna tell him this is going to mainly affect a certain demographic, and it’s not who he thinks it is.

Everyone is going to be affected by this. Pediatric hospitals get 70% of their revenue from Medicaid. They’ve already been laying people off due to Medicaid payouts not having been increased over the past few years. This drives up medical costs everywhere as hspitls systems try to recoup lost revenue. This is going to be a massive hit for healthcare across the board.

The Trump administration treating necessary medical assistance to poor children like a political chit to be cashed in when they disagree with the Governor on unrelated issues should tell you all you need to know about their values.
Republicans are odious creatures deserving of scorn and derision.

Rather belies Trump’s claims that he doesn’t think about Americans’ finances.
It looks to me like he thinks about ways to inflict ever more harm on Americans, our finances, and our lives as a whole.
Very Conservative of him.

yet he granted clemency to his buddy Lawrence Duran who stole tens of millions of $$$$ in Florida
Lawrence Duran – the former co-owner of American Therapeutic Corp. a Miami- based company that ran seven
healthcare clinics between South Florida and Orlando – pleaded guilty in May 2011 to multiple felonies, including defrauding Medicare, healthcare fraud and money laundering

California pays $83 billion MORE into the U.S. federal coffers than they receive from it.
It would be funny if California could just go, “You’re cutting a billion from our medicaid? Oh, okay. We’ll just pay you $5 billion less next year. Do you want to try for ten?”

That’s less than sitting republican senator rick scott’s company that he was CEO of was found guilty of fraudulently stealing tax payer medicare/medicaid money which totaled 1.7 billion in damages. This one guy was the CEO of a company that stole 1.7 billion by defrauding medicare, and he is a current US senator. Mind boggling.

This is a jab at Newsom. Wow. They don’t care about the people at all.

I think the State should close or take over every Federal facility in CA until the Mad King releases the funds. Set up road blocks to all bases in CA and turn every soldier away from said base till then.

Just announce that California is withdrawing all protections for ICE agents. They get no police presence, no state prosecutions. Shut their water and power off. Publish the faces and names of ICE. Make all officers acting within the state remove their facial coverings or get arrested. Prosecute ICE locally. Make citizens arrests. There is still a lot to do if our leaders only had the courage to lead.

California contributes 700B in taxes to the fed, it would be a shame if they just withheld some

Whelp, we found the billion to pay for that stupid fucking ballroom.
God damn, if an actual leftist potus ever happens, I want them to return the favor so badly. Seriously, yank every damn dollar and tell them to pick their racist ass bootstraps.
