Democrats' Party pearl-clutchers, perverts, and activists pretended to be upset last week over the idea that we’re all going to die. The fact is, we will all die someday, though their bad ideas will live on – 100,000,000 people were killed in the pursuit of the progressive political philosophy over the last century. There isn’t a single leftist alive who is bothered by that fact who can attest to that fact.
Iowa Senator Joni Ernst told a group of liberals whining over the prospect of able-bodied adults without young children having to work to receive medical welfare that “Well, we’re all going to die.” And yes, Medicaid is medical welfare – a program for the poor to cover their health care costs that was expanded by the left during COVID to cover people who are not poor.
The idea of rolling back an expansion that didn’t exist 5 years ago is now considered (by Democrat drones) to be an attack on families, which is weird because they spend an awful lot of time trying to prevent families from coming into being with abortion.
In the least shocking turn of event since the sun rising in the east this morning, Democrat sleazebags jumped on this like it was a moderately attractive intern in a left-wing committee office up on the Hill to pretend Ernst was in favor of facilitating “literal deaths” of Americans because they want to give “tax cuts to billionaires.”
It’s something so stupid it makes Eric Swalwell capable of tying his own shoes.
Honestly, when you have Chris Murphy, Democrat of Connecticut, trying to lecture about “morality” a few months after he left his wife and family for a much younger woman, a left-wing, Soros-funded activist, who I assume is a woman. Still, with Democrats, you can’t ever be sure.
What Ernst said was undeniably true, and the Republican bill will only remove able-bodied, non-poor people from Medicaid if they refuse to work or volunteer for 20 hours per week. How is that “killing people”? It’s not, of course, but Democrats haven’t been bound by reality for a generation, so why would they start now?
Rather than explain how a family of 4 making $80,000 per year qualifies for welfare designed to help poor people, they’d rather claim Republicans want them dead. Rather than explain how millions of illegal aliens are not only entitled to live in this country simply because they want to, they’d rather insist they “deserve” health care paid for by everyone else. People who have contributed nothing to society, and will never contribute more than they take, most of them cannot communicate in English, are illiterate in their own language thanks to the failed education system in their home countries, and whose children slow down and damage the education of American children.
Aside from a lottery win, it is virtually impossible for them to be a net economic positive for the country for their generation and quite possibly the next. If we didn’t have almost #37 trillion in debt, maybe we could weather that cost, but we are and cannot.
What Joni Ernst said, on every level, is absolutely true. She’s not being attacked for lying, the left is freaking out because she told the truth and they have no use for the truth. It does them no favors, and the American people don’t like what they advocate for, so they don’t discuss it.
After the fake social media outrage, I saw that Ernst had released a new video, one that looked like it would be an apology. Immediately, I was disappointed. Then I watched it.
It was no apology, it was a middle finger and a loud “Kiss my ass!”
I loved it. To hell with those people.
Ernst displayed a brilliant attitude throughout the whole thing. Other Republicans need to embrace it – tell off leftists who come to town halls for the express purpose of creating a moment where “progressive fascists” can go viral online.
Ask these Democrats to explain what it is they don’t like in the bill, specifically, then let them talk. Each time they stop, point out how they either were wrong or didn’t actually say anything beyond talking points, because that’s what they do (it’s all they do). Then tell them where they can go and what they can do when they arrive. Oh, and never stop repeating the truth – Democrats have no answer to that.
