Trump administration to withhold Medicaid funding from California

since you'll be out the door and the Biden administration will just reinstate it.

Criteria? Last I heard, abortion was still legal.

I have on time to time imagined him disappearing from the face of the earth by all manner of possibilities. Aliens from some other galaxy finally come to take him back, or perhaps a lightening bolt strong enough to zap in his bunker. Or maybe just an old fashioned massive heart attack would work. I've been hoping for this for almost 5 years.

Frustrating how imagining an event to happen like any number of ways nature could vanquish Evil never seems to work or happen.

Fucker who's Blaring WHY he'll BE GONE on Jan 20, 2021.

republicans can never tell me about "pro-life:.

Anywho, I'm pretty sure it will be rectified.

are subject to the Hatch Act even though once the States get the grant, it's under State control?

I don't see the new administration agreeing with this. So in effect, Azar is holding CA funds for a month.
Which is still a hardship for those who depend on Medicaid in California.

Haele

back to wherever they came from.

A Democrat wouldn't do this, but if a Democrat vindictively held up money from a state like this, he or she would be immediately impeached by the Repukes.

This is too weird.

How is it that the executive branch dictates who gets funds of that sort?

Gov Newsom might respond "California sends billions of dollars more to Washington each year than it receives. So no problem. We'll withhold $2 billion a quarter until our Medicaid gets topped up after President Biden moves into the White House. Mr. Azar should find something else to waste his time on than breaking deals with States while trying to take healthcare away from citizens."

As much as I've heard about how much blue states support the Federal budget.... what is the mechanism?

Taxpayers paying Federal taxes? Or?

It’s through federal income taxes so it doesn’t pass through California’s control.

But I like the way you think.

Isn't the state supposed to deduct and remit federal income tax to the US Treasury for example?

denied Trump's petty revenge against blue states. This is just another made for TV PR stunt to give him a new excuse to fleece his brainless followers out of their rent money so he can enrich himself.

that is all

And get out of my state, you're not welcome here.

you won't...
