Well, howdy there, Internet people, it's Bell again.

So today, we're going to talk about Johnson admitting their cutting Medicaid.

After months of denying they'd cut Medicaid services and of pretending Trump wouldn't let him,

Speaker Johnson has started to admit that the cuts are coming. Of course the cuts are coming. Remember when they directed the House Energy and Commerce Committee to cut $880 billion?

Speaker Johnson said, quote, we have to eliminate on, for example, on Medicaid, who are not actually eligible to be there,

able-bodied workers.

For example, young men who are who should never be on the program at all.

Okay, that's not correct.

Abel-bodied young men are not precluded from Medicaid.

In fact, you can be an able-bodied young men are not precluded from Medicaid. In fact, you can be an able-bodied

young man working full-time and still qualify for some Medicaid programs because you're

below the federal poverty level. The fact that you can work full-time in this country and

still be below the federal poverty level isn't the fault of

the person in poverty. It's the fault of those in Congress who have refused to address the minimum

wage in this country. And you don't have to be below the poverty level to qualify for Medicaid.

I think it's 138% for some programs. The speaker went on, quote,

When you have people on the program that are draining the resources, it takes away from the people

that are actually needing it the most and are intended to receive it. You're talking about young single mothers down on their fortunes

at the moment. The people with the real disabilities, the elderly. Nope. Nobody is draining resources

except for Republicans looking to cut the programs to pay for tax cuts for the wealthy.

I'd start paying close attention to the language they're using.

It looks like first on the chopping block is the Medicaid expansion.
