Why haven't we seen more backlash against the GOP's proposed cuts to Medicaid? One reason is that people may not know they're on Medicaid, because Medicaid has different names in different states (see 🧵). Another is that some people may not realize that they (or their kids) could qualify.
Many Medicaid recipients do not know they receive it because Medicaid is called different things in different states. The public narrative of Medicaid focuses on a distant other, but 40% of US children and 60% of nursing home residents receive Medicaid. Just SOME of the names by state are below:

Every time a Republican utters the phony ‘waste, fraud & abuse’ talking point, they should be confronted with key fact noted by Aaron here that ‘fraud is really just spending I don’t agree with.’ Call out the musk/maga scam.
Lee Zeldin was on Fox today talking about clawing back money lawfully appropriated to organizations by legislation like the Inflation Reduction Act simply bc Trump doesn't like it. This is an especially egregious example of how Trumpers have redefined "fraud" to just mean "spending I disagree with."

So the amount that Elon Musk has actually cut from the federal budget is the equivalent of 0.5% of his current net worth, meanwhile he has caused massive harm with these illegal and indiscriminate cuts to services that help ordinary people all over the country and the world. Nice work doofus.
I've read most of the analyses of the DOGE 2025 "receipts" site. This, from NPR, is the best I've read so far. Some of what they claim to have cut haven't been cut, other "cuts" will incur costs down the road.
NPR says DOGE has made $2B of cuts, not $55B.

Abruptly firing people who work in air traffic control is like murdering your own soldiers in the middle of a war.
