https://www.msnbc.com/opinion/msnbc-opinion/mitch-mcconnell-medicaid-cuts-get-over-it-rcna214978 Mitch McConnell may no longer be the Senate majority leader, but he does not lack for influence in the chambers caucus. In a private meeting Tuesday amid Republicans scramble to pass their budget reconciliation bill, McConnell tried to assuage the fears of senators facing blowback. I know a lot of us are hearing from people back home about Medicaid, he said, according to Andrew Desiderio of Punchbowl News. But theyll get over it.Link to source: https://twitter.com/AndrewDesiderio/status/1937593205102690353 ALSO ... McCONNELL gave a short speech saying failure is not an option and added: I know a lot of us are hearing from people back home about Medicaid. But theyll get over it. While my mom and grandmother may not lose their Medicaid in this round of cuts, if hospital closures contribute to their deaths I promise you I won't get the fuck over this. --- The name is wackyteen for a reason.
