Cheeto Deliberately Working On Making America Violent

Cheeto and his Nazi regime want to provoke violence and make Americans feel less safe The game is fear and intimidation of the citizenry as seen yesterday in Chicago with an apartment raid that left the apartments trashed…many US citizens and children zip tied until released Cheeto has declared that the country is in an “armed conflict” with cartels as an excuse

Why else would the regime cut $$ for counterterrorism in blue cities recently reported cutting $1.5B in NYC which more broadly affects other regional communities? Cheeto has done away with other federal funding to cripple responses by local law enforcement There is little justification for such a policy except to make states and communities less safe and create cells of terrorists to maraud

This then gives Cheeto the excuse to use the military in communities as the strongman He keeps calling blue cities areas of hell and crime when nothing of the kind is happening But Cheeto needs an excuse to give himself extraordinary wartime powers

Agree…He’s an idiot this funding cuts are actually hurting us and making us vulnerable…While he’s doing this it could cause our government to collapse and in his warped mind he does want to rule as a Dictator…Time to get in his way by voting Dems in every state to stop the damage he’s creating before it’s too late…Voting is our only hope…

Totally agree and awareness of this is crucial for a strong D outcome next year so protest donate and talk to family neighbors friends relatives to get out the vote

And while being anti Trump will help, it will be even better if we are FOR specific things to make people's lives better, not just as bad as it was before Trump. Everybody should feel safer and better as a result of these plans, not just a few. BIG plans, BOLD plans will win the day. That is why Trump won, because even though he LIED, he at least promised the people he would make their problems go away. We can do better than that, and we need to do better.

Apparently electing Dems isn't enough as maga mike refuses to swear them in. So we need to elect them and provide the legal support they need to make johnson swear them in.

And yet, the fact remains that although he can play fast and loose with the lives of Venezuelan fisherfolk, he can't legally lay claim to any such powers domestically without outright proclaiming a civil war. And that'd be the end of him.

That’s really what this frenzy of horrible new outrages is about. Johnson is a pathetic coward and constitutional criminal, every bit as much as McConnell was for blocking Garland SCOTUS nomination.

If there is a future with honest history, these two saboteurs will be reviled.

And I have to assume teaches his children to lie and bully. And what a strange preacher he must have that supports those clear violations of the Ten Commandments. I figure maga mike has bought a trump bible which has re written the new testament and changed feed the hungry, welcome the stranger, heal the sick to inflict all the pain you can, but he supports posting the Ten Commandments I think in their original form which included thou shalt not bear false witness. I guess he just hasn't read those, just like he didn't watch trump's speech to the generals.

Our enrollment is mid October. They are trying to find less expensive coverage right now; but, said it still would be higher than what we are paying. Also it said that we may not be able to keep our same providers if they don't take the new insurance.

Got a big envelope of papers from them today; but, have not opened it yet. Don't feel like ruining what has turned out to be a nice day.

Make sure to check that your providers & pharmacy are participating in the new insurance, and check the medication formulary to make sure your meds are still covered, if not then you will need to find a new PCP, specialists and pharmacy. This can be a huge hassle for many people to navigate, it helps having a good friend, or nurse to help.

Without making themselves clear, I think Maggots realize that people will get sicker without healthcare, and these sicker people (legal or otherwise) will go to the ER, which will explode costs.

Susan Raquel's avatar

I'm not sure of this; but, Ben said that if someone falls off of a roof, whether legal or not, that they are taken to the hospital and must be cared for.

If the person was undocumented he/she would be cared for. Would payment come out of the Medicade fund?

Otherwise, undocumented cannot get Medicaid.

Expand full comment
uRNangel423's avatar

Hospitals receive some government funds for giving medical care to uninsured patients, but the balance of costs are usually absorbed by the hospital systems! That’s why so many of the smaller hospitals are closing, and the larger hospital systems are owned by hedge funds that don’t want to lose money! And those “losses” are made up by increasing costs of care to everyone else—it’s a vicious cycle!

Yu are correct. They must be cared for in the ER, whatever their status. I would guess it would be the hospital's Medicaid that would pay.
