Imagine being a career officer in the chain of command on Trump's boat bombings. You have deep moral and legal concerns about them. Your faith in leadership is shaky. Then you see Pete Hegseth tweet out a sadistic cartoon about it. Must be awful.

Thoughts on this:

About 40% of SNAP recipients are children. Around half of ALL children in the country are covered by Medicaid or the Children’s Health Insurance Program.

And the so-called “party of family values” gutted both programs by billions of dollars.

Doesn’t sound very pro-family to me.

Upon gaining a trifecta, Republicans acted to cut Medicaid for millions of Americans, and now they’re refusing to act to keep lower premiums for millions more.

Sicker, hungrier, poorer. That’s the GOP vision for working families, veterans, seniors and everyday Americans.

Worse yet, they say, it’s coming even before cuts to Medicaid in President Donald Trump’s One Big Beautiful Bill Act take effect and the potential expiration of Obamacare subsidies at year’s end. The charities are warning of exploding medical debt and lower survival rates for diseases like…

Americans are buckling under medical bills. It could get worse.
Charities that help people pay for care say demand is way up. That’s before scheduled Medicaid and Obamacare cuts take effect.

Lamar White, Jr. writes, “Ralph Abraham’s forgotten record on opioids, Medicaid, race, and self-dealing is far more alarming than his anti-vaccine posturing.”

His clinic/pharmacy doled out opioids like candy-creating addicts in a small town in Louisiana. Now he is in the upper ranks of CDC.

Hospitals across Massachusetts are in crisis — losing billions in Medicaid funding will cripple our health care system. I’ll keep fighting so no family is left without care.

Few nursing homes can care for people who need help breathing with a ventilator because of ALS and other conditions. Insurers often deny payment for the best at-home machines, and innovative solutions are endangered by Medicaid cuts.
They need a ventilator to stay alive. Getting one can be a nightmare

There, the limit remains two months. And it’s only because of one man: Assembly Speaker Robin Vos.
