That wasn't a post of math that was you being a useless smartass.

Estimates using numbers require MATH.
Did you not know this?

Hmmm, maybe you didn't know it.
Now you do.

BTW - North Carolina rules on Medicaid eligibility:

Tell me why this provision now exist.

Provision: This provision would eliminate Medicare eligibility for illegal immigrants and only
allow eligibility for Lawful Permanent Residents, certain Cuban immigrants, and individuals
living in the United States through a Compact of Free Association.

Seriously Rob. You are blinded by your own party. Illegals get benefits, from our tax dollars. You are fighting to keep that going because someone on the other side knows its a bad thing. It hurts Americans. But according to latest poles under 37% of you so called Americans even care for America.

So you can't provide proof of your claim that contradicts the CFR, and even the state you live in says you are wrong.
Good stuff.

Florida:

Kentucky:

Ohio:

But Trump told you to think otherwise, so you're all about following his command.

AND again Rob will talk out of his ***. HE will now claim there is no such thing as illegals getting Americans benefits because he only has access to the documents that have nothing to do with illegals getting benefits.

This is just a simple AI search.

• Emergency Medicaid: Federal law requires hospitals to provide emergency medical treatment regardless of immigration status. Under "Emergency Medicaid," hospitals can receive reimbursement from Medicaid for emergency care provided to individuals who would otherwise qualify based on income, excluding their immigration status. This covers only emergency medical conditions and represents a small portion of total Medicaid spending.
• State-Funded Programs: Some states provide their own state-funded health coverage to immigrants, including undocumented immigrants, using only state funds. These programs are separate from Medicaid and are not subject to federal standards. State programs vary, but some offer comprehensive coverage, particularly for children. Examples include programs in California, Colorado, Illinois, Minnesota, New York, Oregon, and Washington.

From CMS -
The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) announced today increased federal oversight to stop states from misusing federal Medicaid dollars to cover health care for individuals who are in the country illegally. Under federal law, federal Medicaid funding is generally only available for emergency medical services for noncitizens with unsatisfactory immigration status who would otherwise be Medicaid-eligible, but some states have pushed the boundaries, putting taxpayers on the hook for benefits that are not allowed.

“Medicaid is not, and cannot be, a backdoor pathway to subsidize open borders,” said CMS Administrator Dr. Mehmet Oz. “States have a duty to uphold the law and protect taxpayer funds. We are putting them on notice—CMS will not allow federal dollars to be diverted to cover those who are not lawfully eligible.”

As part of the action, CMS is ramping up financial oversight across the board to identify and stop improper spending. This includes:

• Focused evaluations of select state Medicaid spending reports (CMS-64 form submissions);
• In-depth reviews of select states’ financial management systems; and
• Assessing existing eligibility rules and policies to close loopholes and strengthen enforcement.

“Medicaid funds must serve American citizens in need and those legally entitled to benefits,” said CMS Deputy Administrator and Director of the Center for Medicaid & CHIP Services Drew Snyder. “If states cannot or will not comply, CMS will step in.”

CMS is also urging all states to immediately examine and update internal controls, eligibility systems, and cost allocation policies to ensure full compliance with federal law. Any improper spending on noncitizens will be subject to recoupment of the federal share.

This effort aligns with President Trump’s Executive Order on Ending Taxpayer Subsidization of Open Borders, reinforcing our commitment to restoring integrity to federal programs, securing the border, and putting Americans first. CMS will continue to act decisively to ensure Medicaid dollars serve their true purpose—protecting people eligible for the program under federal law.

Because then Trump can claim he fixed yet another crisis that doesn't exist.

"Simple AI search".
A simple AI search will tell you that as a recovering addict, you should reward yourself with some meth.

So you don't have any proof. Just the results of an AI search that tell you what you want to hear, and confirm what Trump told you to believe.
Got it.

Show me how North Carolina is approving illegal immigrants for Medicare.

About $1 trillion in medicaid cuts over ten years. Not even the administration is denying that. Which makes me wonder where you get your "news". Tin foil hat factory?

Means test the safety net...

So we should believe the expert witness is wrong, and you are right. The expert witness who was "responsible for the design, manufacturing, production, raw material, sales and marketing of all men's gloves." for the compnay.

The company that made the gloves worn by OJ on TV. The company that made the bloodied gloves presented in the trial. One of 200-240 pair produced that YEAR by the company where he was "responsible for the design, manufacturing, production, raw material, sales and marketing of all men's gloves."
Got it.

What are your bona fides regarding your work in the leather products manufacturing, leather products care, or leather products repair industries?

Tell me: Why would Langston's lie about a method to shrink leather? Just a ploy to make OJ look bad?
Why would ANYONE sell a boot that could shrink from exposure to a liquid?

Are you suggesting OJ (accidentally) applied one of these shrinking methods to the gloves? Rob I'm not asking you to believe me. I'm asking you to believe your own personal experiences with leather. I'm asking you to believe the massive data set that is your friends, family & acquaintances whose leather goods don't shrink with a minimal amount of moisture exposure (3ml). Don't reject the reality that you've been living in because you just have to be right.

I saw no evidence of protestors attacking police in LA. If there were attacks on police.....those people deserve to be in jail. No pardons.

But you've seen no evidence of attacks on police? I wonder why they're charging the one guy with attempted murder? What about the police that were hospitalized - attacked by other police?
