For anyone keeping score, Wall Street seems to be handling the shutdown just fine…

I'm making $ and the government ain't spending it? Happy Wednesday to me!

So this is about how California and other states are in a pinch to support their capital intensive healthcare systems as their states lost citizens. Put another way, handling deflation is impossible without tax (read my kids and grandkids debit obligations) funds to prop them up with the illegal alien population.


Side note, when i typed this out i misspelled alien and my iPhone corrected it to "slur".

This!!

Portfolio is doing nicely, took a little hit on Boeing and Lockheed Martin. Thinking because of the shutdown it might have affected the government contracts. Still, I'm holding out though the storm.

For the first time in decades, the Rs are finally controlling the narrative…

D whining isn't getting them anywhere with John Q Public at large…

It's fascinating to see the Right finally grow their balls back…

They're growing their balls back because they've FINALLY realized that nobody watches legacy media anymore.

I guarantee that clip above got more views on X skewering them than views on the actual platform. They don't have to worry anymore about the MSM carrying water for the dems because it's a dead platform.

What are you talking about? There wasn't a single thing dems were asking for that included healthcare for illegal aliens. And what happened to the master negotiator Trump claimed to be? Shouldn't half of the country be a prime candidate for people that he should try to work with?

It's really disappointing how many people are believing the lies from the right on this topic. Everyone loves to claim to do their own research but will blindly believe everything that comes from a trump lackey.



This is what the dems asked for, reversing medicaid cuts for LEGAL aliens.

Page 6 so don't know if this was discussed...

It's sad that the multi-trillion dollar monstrosity bill, passed this summer, only funded the government for less than three months.

That's kind of amusing. Jake Tapper is desperately trying to give that clod advice on making a better `sell' of his nonsense, and kind of telling him you need to drop the lying by another name about funding illegals. Even Tapper was pointing out the wordsmithing and trying to say lose that part of the bill this round.

Exactly. The US government shouldn't provide health care for aliens, even legal aliens.

You notice how the Dems always move the goal posts?... "we're not saying provide healthcare for illegal aliens... just do it for LEGAL aliens"... as if that somehow makes it ok.

Hell no!

And they need to cut all these Obamacare subsidies for lazy people who need to get off their butt and work if they want nice things in life like health insurance. It's a privilege you work for, not a right that requires me to pay taxes for it.

Restoring the funding is restoring paying for illegals health care because it restores Medicare payments to hospitals to provide such care.

While its not necessarily a direct subsidy to illegals, the end result is still us paying for their health care because illegals use the emergency system at a very high rate since they are required to recieve care.

They can do it after paying the middle class of citizen's health expenses. We don't find them any easier to pay, but the ruling class of politicians and press don't have to worry about it.

"In terms of healthcare, the reality is they are just not being honest. The amount of money that actually is going towards people who are undocumented is such a small portion of the Medicaid cuts or the ACA, if at all,"
Ro Khanna (D), California

Tell me again when Representative Khanna became a "trump lackey."

But it is "such a small portion" going to the undocumented!

Translation for you: they want illegals to continue enjoying free healthcare on the backs of the American people.

So disheartening to know that there are gullible people like this out there and their votes count as much as ours.

In your grandad's day, "Archie Bunker" (All in the Family) was supposed to be the bigoted conservative that everyone hated.

Turned out that normal people LOVED Archie and hated his hippie meathead son in law.

Heck people still hate the actor who played Meathead

He's talking about emergency services. You want to live in a society where we just let people die in emergency rooms bc they arent here legally? You need a social security number for medicaid, illegal aliens dont have those. Your argument falls apart at the simplest questioning.

This is about green card holders and not illegal immigrants, you understand that much right? These are not the same.
