      Put it in an escrow account and use it to replace the lost medicaid and other funding.

      when the feds hold up their end of the deal, they get to have the remaining funds.

        I’m not sure how practical that is (seems like it would be more complicated than that). But if something like that could be done it would be great.

        Conservatives want to try starving vulnerable Californians? Without our revenue dozens of red states will start starving. Would be funny seeing this administration shoot itself in the foot yet again.

      Meanwhile Rick Scott was in charge of Columbia/HCA while it committed the largest count of Medicaid fraud in history. He’s now a Senator and the Republicans put him in charge of their finances.

        Came here to say this. I love it when Republicans pretend to GAF about “fraud”.

        They are LYING LIARS.

        “If these people actually cared about medicaid fraud they’d kill Rick Scott” – Every Hasan Piker’s hitpiece, completely missing the point that it’s true.

            He let a thought slip when talking about healthcare and Luigi. Obviously he has to play the song and dance of “it was like when you say ‘kill a bill’”. Hasan has to walk a fine line because he’s in the public eye. But, yeah, we all know it’s true on its face. Obviously we’re not getting healthcare for everyone by assassinations of more CEOs. But he said what we all are often thinking.
