Green to Trump: “You have no mandate to cut Medicaid.”

The most dramatic moment of the evening occurred near the beginning of Trump's rambling, Congressional Address.

Congressman Al Green, a democrat from Texas, screamed. "You have no mandate to cut Medicaid!"

Trump was beginning his flurry of lies, half-truths, ridiculous exaggerations when Green, clutching his cane, had had enough.

Eventually, the worst Speaker in History, ordered Capitol Police to haul Congressman away.

Green told reporters outside the House Chamber that he could not sit silently by as Republicans attempt to cut Medicaid, Medicare, and SOCIAL SECURITY!

Yup. Even though Trump has said he has no plans to cut these programs, Congressional Republicans are drafting the legislation right now, and Trump has not repeated his promise not to touch Social Security.

Instead he repeated the MUSK LIES. Trump, Musk, and MAGA Mike Johnson have all claimed that Social Security is filled with graft and corruption and that 200-year-olds are getting checks.

In this podcast I quote from several sources, including a Los Angeles Times article called "Trump, The GOP, and Doge have launched their attack on your social security. START WORRYING."
