Republicans to Consider Cutting Medicare Waste [View all]

Chyron on MSNBC. They are throwing out all kind of hints that not only are Medicaid and SNAP on the chopping clock, so is Medicare. R Senators say that trump approves of cutting Medicare "waste".

Here's the thing: you can call anything waste. And they will.

This is why an adversarial press is an absolute necessity with this administration. They will not call this out. Again, it will fall to the Dems and to us to spread the word.

I honestly think that the manufactured spectacle in LA is at least partly to distract from what's in the bill and the cuts they are making. So was the hissy fit catfight between the two most spoiled men on earth last week.

We need to stay focused, united, and LOUD.
