Out of touch, evil assholes. I have retired and disabled relatives in their 70s and up who apparently need to get back to work and also get private insurance they cannot afford.
Rest of conversation -
REPORTER: You’re saying Medicaid cuts will push people back to work?
BARR: That’s right. Work-capable adults need to get off taxpayer-funded programs.
REPORTER: But Medicaid isn’t just for "work-capable adults"—you’re cutting care for seniors, veterans, disabled people, low-income families, and children.
BARR: We need to encourage self-sufficiency and reduce government dependency.
REPORTER: How does taking healthcare from disabled Americans make them “self-sufficient”?
BARR: We’re making sure resources go to those who truly need them.
REPORTER: So seniors in nursing homes, working-class families, and veterans don’t "truly need" healthcare?
BARR: They have options, like private insurance.
REPORTER: Private insurance that’s unaffordable for the very people you’re cutting off?
BARR: The goal is to strengthen the economy by encouraging work.
REPORTER: So a single mom working two jobs should just "work harder" to afford care she already had?
BARR: We believe in empowering Americans, not trapping them in government programs.
REPORTER: By forcing them into medical debt, bankruptcy, or worse? Medicaid is the safety net. It keeps hospitals open, helps people stay employed, and supports those who can’t work.

Keep blocking all of his reckless actions! In multiple separate cases earlier today, judges ruled against him.

Incoming German Chancellor Friedrich Merz: "I am communicating closely with a lot of prime ministers, and heads of EU states and for me it is an absolute priority to strengthen Europe as quickly as possible, so that we achieve independence from the US, step by step...
I never thought that I would ever need to say something like that, on television, but after the latest statements made by Donald Trump last week, it is clear, that the Americans — at any case these Americans, this administration — mostly don't care about the fate of Europe one way or another."

Merz also condemned Elon Musk’s election interference, saying that these “interventions from Washington were no less drastic, dramatic, and ultimately no less brazen than the intervention we have seen from Moscow."

At Donald Trump’s speech at CPAC the following happened:
1. He said he was “angry” repeatedly and made odd noises saying “angry.”
2. He said he and Elon were searching Fort Knox for “gold” and hopes it’s “not missing”
3. He starts cursing at Biden and blames the crashing markets on him.
4. He says MSNBC is a threat to democracy.
5. He attacks CNN and says he doesn’t talk about CNN.
6. He says he should go against Rachel
Maddow “in the ratings.”7. He says his first four years in office are like the “first holes of golf.”
8. He says he’s demanding Ukraine give us “rare earth and oil and anything else.”
9. He says the thousands of govt workers fired are actually “radical left liberals.”
10. He says Elon’s position is not head of DOGE but it’s “patriot.”
11. He says the 2024 election was rigged and he got more votes.
12. He says his approval rating is highest ever when in fact it’s the lowest ever at this time since 1953.
13. He says America was the wealthiest in late 19th century so we need to go back to that.
He said this and more. Here are receipts:

I wish a lot more leaders would stand up to him and to his face
TRUMP: The NCAA has complied immediately. That's good. But I understand Maine -- is the governor of Maine here?
JANET MILLS: Yeah I'm here

JM: I'm going to comply with state and federal law
T: You better do it bc you're not gonna get any federal funding at all
JM: See you in court
T: Enjoy your life after governor because I don't think you'll be in elected politics

“We had a very meaningful meeting in the White House today. Much was learned that could never be understood without conversation under such fire and pressure. It’s amazing what comes out through emotion, and I have determined that President Zelenskyy is not ready for Peace if America is involved, because he feels our involvement gives him a big advantage in negotiations. I don’t want advantage, I want PEACE.
He disrespected the United States of America in its cherished Oval Office. He can come back when he is ready for Peace.”
–President Donald J. Trump
