October 20, 2025 – Dems exploited loopholes; illegal aliens did get taxpayer-funded Medicaid and Medicare

In Email/Dossier/Govt Corruption Investigations, Featured Timeline Entries by Katie Weddington

Democrats play semantic games while taxpayers foot the bill. Federal law blocks Medicaid for illegals, but blue states exploit loopholes – like California’s $3.8B Medi-Cal expansion for undocumented adults through state-funded programs. The One Big Beautiful Bill Act tightened restrictions, yet Schumer & Co. now push to reverse those reforms.

Emergency Medicaid already drains $3.8B annually for “life-saving” care that incentivizes border surges. Every dollar spent on non-citizen healthcare steals resources from veterans and seniors.

Real enforcement means cutting ALL pathways – state or federal.

The claim that the U.S. government sent $2.7 trillion in Medicare and Medicaid payments overseas is false; the $2.7 trillion figure refers to improper payments across all federal agencies since 2003, not specifically to overseas payments. These improper payments include various reasons, such as administrative errors and fraud, but the reports do not indicate that they were primarily sent to people outside the United States.
