The "Big Beautiful Bill" isn't cutting Medicare for all of us....

[HuskiesHowls]

At least, according to an ad for Randy Feenstra, Republican congressman from Iowa.

In his ad running for governor, it states that this only cuts Medicare for "every illegal alien trying to cross our border".

With messaging like this coming from the other side, its no wonder that people don't understand what's going to happen.

1. And if these cuts go into effect, Clem and Bessie-May Smith,

With American-born ancestors stretching back to Millard Filmore’s presidency and MAGA voters to the core, will find themselves in the same predicament as Pablo and Maria Robles, freshly-arrived from Venezuela.

In my native-Texan patois, you all weren’t paying attention, were you?

2. This just tells me the public has no understanding of Medicare - we need a more

informed public. Obviously, our education system is failing us.

[Wounded Bear]

3. And our media...

5. Our educational system is being forced to fail us. Republicans do not want their slave labor educated.

Look. You can tell MAGA that 'illegals' are devastating Medicare when they only pay into it but don't receive funds.

4. Such ignorance. How could immigrants ever get medicare with no work history?

The quality of rethug candidates continues to crater. Makes one wonder if this moron running for governor on the rethug ticket even knows how Medicare works, or is he just trying to fool voters like rethugs often do?

6. How do you know when a republican is lying?

7. There is no Medicare for non-citizen immigrants.

Please try to get this right. It is Medicaid that is at risk right now, not Medicare.

[ToxMarz]

8. And Medicaid is'nt blanket free health care for non-citizens either

Though they try to imply it is and that is the 'waste, fraud and abuse" they are cutting. You must have a qualified legal immigrant status to even be eligible for Medicaid.

They are just liars, the typical "entitled to lie Christian liars" for whom lying isn't against their Christianity because their piously self defined "worthy" ends justify the means.

9. Very true. Depending on the state, qualifying for Medicaid can be a real struggle.
