Start this hour in Washington DC where the federal government remains shut down today amid a tense standoff over federal funding. House Minority Leader Democratic Congressman Hakee Jeff is standing by with the Democrat's position and to respond to House Speaker Mike Johnson who said this moments ago.

RT JD Vance (@JDVance)This is important--money is fungible--and it's why the Democrat and media lie that health care is not going to illegals is so preposterous. Consider, for instance, two state Medicaid programs--Ohio and New York. New York gives Medicaid to illegals and Ohio doesn't.When the government gives billions of dollars to New York for Medicaid, that frees up state money in New York that can then be spent on illegals.It's like if you give a mobster $100 but he PROMISES you he won't spend the mone ...

There are three things that Democrats are asking for here. Number one, with the Trump mega bill, there was a lot of health care provisions that passed cuts that were made to Medicaid. Democrats basically want to reverse all of what Republicans just did only a few months ago.Number two, the White House has done a number of what's called rescissions, basically taking funds that Congress in a bipartisan manner allocated to various programs. And the White House said, hey, we're not actually going to use that fu ...

Healthcare Policy & Drug Pricing - Pfizer commits to offering all prescription medications to Medicaid at most favored nation's prices, aiming to significantly reduce Medicaid costs [1] - Pfizer will participate in trumprx.gov, offering discounted treatments for patients not using insurance, but its benefit for insured individuals is questionable [2] - Concerns arise whether trumprx.gov offers something new compared to existing programs like Cost Plus Drugs or direct-to-consumer offerings from pharmaceutical companies [4] - The voluntary nature of the program raises doubts about compliance from other pharmaceutical companies and its long-term viability [5] Vaccine & Public Health - An official is criticized for downplaying the role of vaccines in reducing infectious diseases, particularly polio and rubella [6][7][8] - Experts warn about potential resurgence of eradicated diseases due to misinformation and undermining of vaccine importance [10] - The vast majority of people think vaccines are useful and necessary [12] Government Shutdown Impact on Healthcare - Expiration of Affordable Care Act (ACA) subsidies due to the shutdown could affect 4 million families, potentially doubling their premiums and impacting access to affordable healthcare [13] - Telehealth and in-home care visits, reliant on government funding, are affected by the shutdown [14] - Medicare and Medicaid payment delays to hospitals are expected, potentially leading to staff furloughs and delays in care [15]

You're on the verge of a shutdown, bro. The argument on the other side Yeah. says that the tax credits and the health care subsidies will largely go to folks that are here illegally.Can you confirm or debunk that. First of all, it's a it's a very small portion of people that we're talking about. So 90% is not anything to do with those who are undocumented.That's just the math, right. I mean, so we can argue about the 10%, but we have in this country something called emergency Medicaid. What does that mean.I ...

Government Shutdown & Healthcare Debate - Republican claims that Democrats shut down the government to provide healthcare funding for undocumented immigrants are false [1][2][3] - US law prohibits unauthorized immigrants from receiving federally subsidized healthcare coverage through Medicaid, the Affordable Care Act, or the Children's Health Insurance Program [3] - A Democratic bill seeks to extend Medicaid coverage to lawfully present immigrants without formal legal status [4] - The Democrats' bill also aims to extend subsidies for Affordable Care Act premiums [5] Political Messaging & Public Perception - 47% of people believe Republicans are responsible for the government shutdown, while 30% blame Democrats [8] - The Trump administration's messaging is designed to appeal to its base and create content for Fox News [7] - Democrats need a clear and focused message to counter Republican narratives [15] - Democrats should highlight the chaos and economic damage caused by Trump's policies [15][16] Strategic Recommendations for Democrats - Democrats should directly challenge lies from Republican figures and media outlets [24] - Democrats should target Republicans who support Trump's policies [25] - Democrats should emphasize that Trump's policies, including healthcare cuts, will hurt his own voters [20][21]

We're going to go through it's a reality check.You've heard you've heard a lot of claims here. So let's break it down. Okay, big picture.Let's start with something that affects 24 million Americans and that's Obamacare, the Affordable Care Act. Same thing. 24 million people use Obamacare for their healthare.Most of them, the vast majority get these special tax credits, right. these these t ...
