I don’t think most people understand the scope of what Medicaid does. Medical care? Sure. But it also provides a range of services for survivors of domestic violence and gun violence.
Here’s a story to illustrate that. I just wish I shared it sooner.

A Medicaid Story
As we have learned the hard way, a lot of people in this country have an incredibly narrow view of Medicaid and what it does.

Happy Juneteenth!
Today we celebrate freedom hard won and honor the strength, resilience, and courage of those who fought for it. Let’s use this day to learn, reflect, and take action for true justice.
Freedom is a journey. Let’s keep moving forward together.

This is an absolute betrayal of promises made by Congress to protect the people who protected American soldiers. A betrayal by people who think American greatness is based on half-assed military parades rather than being a credible ally to those that risked their lives for America.
An Afghan man who worked as a translator for the U.S. military during the war was detained by ICE after showing up for a hearing inside of a federal courthouse in San Diego, his attorney says. He fears that if he returns to Afghanistan, he would be tortured or even killed, @nbcsandiego.com reports.

Again!! How does it make sense, make us healthier or safer, or do anything other than waste money??
So the CDC, headed up by RFKjr, will be conducting yet another study on the correlation of autism and vaccines.
Now, if you think to yourself, but we already paid for that study. You would be correct.
It was found credible that vaccines DO NOT cause autism.
Yet here we are. Again.

Fox News host Harris Faulkner expressed outrage after Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau referred to the U.S. president as "Donald."
If he didn't call him Felon, Rapist, or Traitor, he showed great restraint.

These arrogant amoral vultures, blackout drunk on themselves, are exactly what founding father John Adams warned against:
"Power always thinks it has a great soul and vast views beyond the comprehension of the weak... that it is doing God's service when it is violating all his laws."
