Sefton: sefton at cutjibnewsletter.com | Democrat-Media-Antifa Party Tries Brand-New Tactic to Defend Schumer Shutdown: Straight-Up Lying and GaslightingBefore that: They're also insisting that we fund their woke propaganda unit NPR. OMB director Ross Vought kept his promise and froze billions that otherwise would go to boondoggles in Chuck Schumer's shithole state of NY: Russ VoughtI like it. You know what would make me love it? Permanently cancelling this boondoggle spending. New York can pay for its own infrastructure from the profits from Zohran Mamdani's government-run groceries. Democrats are all claiming that they're not fighting for free health care for illegals. They claim that illegals aren't eligible for Obamacare so none of them are on it, just like they're not allowed to vote so obviously zero illegals vote illegally. But that's not even the issue, and they know it. At least if they were on Obamacare, they would be paying something for health care. They're not. They walk into hospital ERs and do not pay anything to anybody. And you know who pays for that? Taxpayers, through the federal government, which "reimburses" hospitals for the "free" health care they provided to illegals. Which is no different than paying the bill up front. It doesn't matter whether taxpayers pay it immediately or a month later when the hospital bills the federal government. We're paying for free health care for illegals. Democrats are demanding we restore funding to hospitals for free health care for illegals.

Biden and Democrats also changed the status of large groups of illegal aliens so they would be eligible for free health care. That’s one reason why Democrats are saying it’s not for “illegal” aliens.
There are also 14 states who offer “free healthcare” to illegal aliens. That’s being paid for by FedGov because the states have obfuscated the recipient information. That’s why those states sued the federal government when they requested additional information on recipients to ensure they were eligible. That lawsuit is pending but if it’s resolved in favor of FedGov, which it will be, the Democrats game of hide the salami in the illegal aliens is over.

Yep ace it of course isn't new, it stretches back decades depending on the topic, and the disaster is that it shapes the entire false (approaching delusional) framework within which 10s of M of Americans "think" about public policies.

Shutdowns are never popular, and Schumer bailed on the last one because he knew it was not a winner for them. They won't stick with this one either unless they can convince the Americans that its all the fault of the evil GOP. Which doesn't look promising.
I do not know what changed but the stuff that Democrats always used to be able to pull off in the past is just running off the backs of American voters like water off a duck.

There are also 14 states who offer “free healthcare” to illegal aliens. That’s being paid for by FedGov because the states have obfuscated the recipient information. That’s why those states sued the federal government when they requested additional information on recipients to ensure they were eligible. That lawsuit is pending but if it’s resolved in favor of FedGov, which it will be, the Democrats game of hide the salami in the illegal aliens is over.
Posted by: Marcus T at October 01, 2025 12:14 PM (sfdXl) Imagine MOU between the Feds and all hospital systems that the Federal government will underwrite 75% of illegal healthcare, on the agreement that the hospital will turn the patient over to ICE on release. The downside of course is that there will be a larger demand for black market medical care. Posted by: Kindltot at October 01, 2025 12:25 PM (rbvCR) 93
I do have one question. Vance says Trump turned off a Biden federal program that funded emergency health care (ER treatment, is that it?) to illegal aliens. Now hospitals have to... pay for it themselves? The Emergency Medical Treatment and Labor Act requires hospitals to provide the care, so... unfunded mandate? Someone unscramble this for me.

They're trying to destroy the Affordable Care Act. They're trying to deny healthcare coverage to anyone who is transgender.
Kinda hard for Trump to blame democrats when he’s also out there saying a shutdown will be good for the country. Our last shutdown was with Donald Trump. Shutdowns happened during his term. It is very clear who is America's Big Ugly Problem. A shutdown falls on the President’s lack of leadership. He can’t even control his own party and get people together in a room. A shutdown means the president is weak. Will Democrats be blamed for it? By uninformed morons and grifters, yes. By people with an IQ of approximately 105 or higher, who stay informed regarding objective facts, and that don't stand to profit from blaming Democrats, not likely. this is a republican shutdown, as it always is, because republicans openly campaign on not doing their job, but get elected anyway because of bothsides media sellouts. Democrats have nothing to lose that the Republicans weren't trying to take away anyway. Republicans have a lot to lose. most of Trump's supporters think DOGE has already made the government run debt free!

No, silly. They should be escorted out of the ER and left to die in an alley. That, or they can go back to their home shithole and get treated there. But they can surely fuck the fuck off out of our hospitals. And most of this care isn't true "emergency" care. Illegals are using ERs as primary care facilities. That not only sucks up money that should be used for citizens, but it also clogs up ERs so that citizens have to wait much longer for true emergency care.

_________________________ How does that work, exactly? The New York Transit Authority (MTA) oversees infrastructure transit projects. They happen to be nearly $50 Billion (with a B) in debt at present. In June of this year they announced nearly $65 Billion (with a B) in new infrastructure projects. This is despite being in $50 Billion (with a B) debt. But, somehow, that infrastructure is paid for with Federal dollars while the MTA collects millions each day from all the fees to use their tunnels bridges, buses, subways and trains.

Stock market is fake and homo, but it's a useful barometer to gauge overall public sentiment, at least in the short term.
If people were truly worried about the consequences of a shutdown, the market would be sharply down. If people don't give a shit, or think the shutdown will be short, the market will move sideways.

So most VA voters - like most Americans - are vapid, and far too ignorant and unserious to be trusted with the vote? Probably true, but it's what we're stuck with.
Of course VA has the special problem of the pathetic Beltway mindset in NoVA. MD has its share of that of course but B'more dooms it to idiocy already. Have seen lifelong friends move to NoVA and magically get dumbed down, to where their "opinions" are just the vapid crap one can get from NPR and the like. Really pathetic.

I strongly believe in counting calories to lose weight, and that's what I'm doing. I'm getting 200g of protein per day, then eating about half my remaining calories in fats and half in carbs. I'm not having sweets. I'm also lifting heavy 3x per week and doing lots of cardio 3x per week. I only credit 60% of the calories the machines say I've burned to my caloric budget.

"So if a migrant comes into an ER, they should be just left to die?"
Sometimes - fuck yes 1. Migrant my ass. Illegal immigrant at best; foreign invader at worst, in some cases (namely those that come here and then act like dipshits and riot while waving foreign flags) 2. It is entirely reasonable to require specific types of life saving care as a requirement of being licensed. It's reasonable to bill it to the feds as a result. It's reasonable, if voters desire - as they are paying for it - to have a different list of reimbursible care for citizens/resident aliens/guests and those not here lawfully. It is not reasonable to stamp your feet and try to guilt us into paying for the world's indigent medical needs. No, fuck off. Nations have borders and the right to control them, and territory and laws that apply to that territory. If progs trulwon't play by a set of rules, then either they need to reconsider, or we need to get rid of the progs, because this shit isn't going to fly. I am extra pissed lately. Family friend just got murdered by a third world illegal who prog judges let loose on violent felony charges. Total crock of shit. We need a Franco or Pinochet.

Oh some have had more than enough of it for decades.

Speaking of illegals using ERs as their primary care...every time I've been to the ER in recent years, and this is also confirmed by everyone I know who has been to the ER, you sit behind a line of people that don't speak English many/most of whom seem to be there for detox.
And if you don't want to wait hours the ER staff will helpfully tell you, "You can always go to an Urgent Care facility". And they aren't wrong - Urgent Care, which requires you to pay, does not have a long line of non-English speakers waiting around to detox... So EMTALA didn't make sure every American could get ER services - it made sure most couldn't. Posted by: 18-1 at October 01, 2025 01:09 PM (sKqQm) 378

So, it all came to a head yesterday.
In the last 24 hours, I've been accused of removing things from the house without permission, insatiable greed and being overly nice in some sort of ruse. First Lady talked to the step-sister over the phone and was so irate at her, she told her to f*ck off. FL sent an email telling her what she wouldn't listen to over the phone. I followed it up with another email this morning, during which I had to ask WWCKD several times to keep it above board. While we are done with the house and all that, she has burned a bridge that cannot be repaired. I will keep in touch with my step-mother out of respect for her keeping to the 'till death do us part' vow with my father. My SS is pretty much dead to me.

One caveat to the suggested plan re illegals and ERs.
Negotiate a treaty with the countries in question where they agree to pay the bill for any citizen treated in the US (and conversely we do as well for Americans in their country). Then when illegal shows up demand citizenship papers...because they mostly have them. No papers...no treatment. Sorry. And then you can use those papers to immediately deport them after stabilizing treatment. Posted by: 18-1 at October 01, 2025 01:16 PM (sKqQm) 430

I like it. You know what would make me love it? Permanently cancelling this boondoggle spending. New York can pay for its own infrastructure from the profits from Zohran Mamdani's government-run groceries. - Ace
Lol. Sublime. How many cans of Zohran peas, including all the ones shoplifted with impunity, does that work out to for a NYC infrastructure project.

Stupid bitch convinced her mother that I was stealing from the house, all while I was in constant communication with SM and the buyers of the house about anything not family related, me only being concerned about inheritance and being suspiciously nice to SM at her going away party because I had some ulterior motive.
Insufferable twat will not get a kind word from me ever again. ------- Could I suggest that maybe you're being too communicative with the parties that you already don't like and that may already dislike you? Part of removing chaos in your own world is minimizing how much interaction you have with *their* world. Stop giving those people anything other than the minimum updating required by law or any legal agreement you have with them. You don't owe them anything beyond that. You can't be in an argument if you're not talking. Posted by: Crusader at October 01, 2025 01:19 PM (TN0g+) 453
How about changing the law so that's no longer the question? Give hospitals the power to triage out the non-emergency illegals. Then if they choose to treat the non-emergency illegals, they don't get tax money. Posted by: bonhomme ============== I like it. No emergency? No RealID? (I know, snort). Go elsewhere. Assessing a patient to determine whether it's a real emergency is gonna take up resources, but once the freeloaders figure out it's not an automatic free stitch-up or shot they might stop dropping in.

Is someone in need of detox an emergency? Because I saw them go in ahead of everyone else...
Well a medical professional has to make a subjective quick judgement, if it is their opinion that they are overdosing or about to die from their addiction, they get in quick. Its also about what is available: detox is a different department and might have ore openings then, say, "remove the iron spike from your lungs" department. But as you say its subjective, and some might have their preferences or inclinations for some cases over others. Posted by: Christopher R Taylor at October 01, 2025 01:20 PM (flcv9) 456

I'm quite fortunate. I'm married to a wonderful, smart, beautiful woman. I have a bright, healthy, sweet little boy. My wife and I both work good jobs. Our cars are paid off. We own our home, for which we didn't go too much into debt. We're all happy and healthy. We love the Lord. Posted by: bonhomme at October 01, 2025 01:20 PM (Yp6az) 458

Someone is paying for it somehow. What was Vance talking about? Some Biden thing that explicitly covers illegal aliens? There shouldn't be a need for that if ERs are forced to treat all comers. I'm just trying to get through this haze.
Posted by: Blonde Morticia at October 01, 2025 01:14 PM (4U88C) I believe that has to do with Medicaid payments. If one state uses its Medicaid funds to pay for the poors, and the next state uses it to pay for illegals, it all comes out of the federal pot. So when a Democrat says "they're taking away Medicaid for the poors," and the Republican says "No, just from illegals," nobody really knows how the money is divided, and can get away with saying the other side is lying.

Posted by: bonhomme at October 01, 2025 01:16 PM (Yp6az) Hospitals, especially the publically-funded hospitals, prefer the path of least resistance, so faced with being liable for their decisions over life and death and dealing with lawyers and lawsuits, all the illegals would likely be tagged as "ultra emergency Danger! Danger!". Posted by: mrp at October 01, 2025 01:24 PM (rj6Yv) 468

Massive fraud in Medicare, Medicaid.
Locally, the democrats did their best to drive a local profit hospital into ruin & then take $55 million from it to administer county programs via "Foundation." The profit hospital had maternity, a recognized burn center, psychiatric care, and more. The primary site operated in an area in which people were legitimately poor. In its place, one set of buildings have been obtained by a huge ambulance company operating over several states. It may have offices for physicians, etc. Another was purchased for cheap by a local school district. It'll be demolished for other site building in the future. Another was rented by the local county and it's crying poor regarding the rent that was agreed upon through several years. CBS News More than 400 nonprofit hospitals chase down patients eligible for free care For poorest patients at hundreds of nonprofit hospitals, financial pain follows medical care, Published April 24, 2025. There's also rampant fraud in ACA & most employer sponsored healthcare programs, too. And then there are the "home healthcare businesses" operating hither and yon in the county & state. Many are hinky. Posted by: L - No nic, another fine day at October 01, 2025 01:25 PM (NFX2v) 471

And fly them to their home country or dump them in another country. Send their illegal family home with them so they can care for the patient. Appropriate whatever property they have to pay for their treatment. Simple. Posted by: naturalfake at October 01, 2025 01:30 PM (iJfKG) 472
There are also 14 states who offer “free healthcare” to illegal aliens.
Those states do the exact same thing that illegal aliens do - misrepresent how many dependents they have in the household. Illegal aliens will report a dozen kids so that they get EITC, States frequently exploit the loose identification policies and make up millions of illegal alien patients so that the billions in "health care" money can be scammed out of the FedGov to pay for the Marxists' private projects.

The regional hospital serving my community used to be located in a residential area. The ER was packed every time I or a member of my family tried to use it. I once slipped on wet concrete and gashed my head, loss of consciousness, everything. I left the ER after waiting three hours without seeing a doctor. I went to another hospital about 30 minutes away and saw a doctor immediately and got the cut closed.
When they opted to build a completely new hospital just outside town, I was against it. They were already a ‘bad’ hospital, so why give them money for a new facility? I’ve been there a couple times since for one reason or another, and the ER is worlds different. You see a doctor or nurse almost immediately. There are places to sit and wait that aren’t filled with entire families now that the hospital isn’t in easy walking distance. Posted by: Advo at October 01, 2025 02:03 PM (jO4mz) 479

Don't have space to discuss illegals in the ED. At one point they could not be asked if they were illegal under Obungo.
We had many multiple casualty calls for wrecks on the Interstate by illegals packed in vans. With illegal drivers. Killing Americans. So many bodies thrown around unrestrained in Central FL that many trauma teams answered from other cities. Including our helicopter. One case in an Orlando ICU, for months on our dime, the people in the med center tried to fly the guy back (on a vent) to Mexico. Mexico refused his return. Not sure what happened to this person, but the bill was close to a million dollars in care, and our taxes went to this. Being illegal he did not qualify for emergency Medicaid. To think I want to continue paying for their free healthcare I also don't have words to spew, oh, hell, no. To think I want tax dollars to pay for anyone's trans sex change, oh, hell no. I would volunteer to Bobbit their dangles for free. I am sure others would offer as well. I hope the government shuts down over this. Maybe it has and I am too busy to notice.
