Jordan, go ahead.
one more question sure the financial backing of these uh groups particularly antifa is certainly something the administration is looking into aggressively and the federal government has never really been mobilized or tasked with doing that so we're kind of kick-starting that into gear the fbi is working on it alongside the white house's homeland security task force we have our intelligence community looking into this as well
It's simply not true.
And it is an undisputed fact.
A fact that under the Biden administration, illegal aliens were absolutely receiving taxpayer funded health care benefits.
In fact, in fiscal year 2024, Medicaid costs for emergency services for illegal immigrants skyrocketed by 142% from the previous year to $9.1 billion.
That's $9.1 billion taxpayer dollars that were going to emergency services for illegals.
Between President Trump's last full fiscal year under his first administration and Joe Biden's last full fiscal year, Medicaid spending on emergency services for illegal immigrants nearly tripled.
There was an increase of 196% between 2020 and 2024.
And I have a chart here for you, and I'm more than happy to email it to you.
I'd also like to add...
because some were asking dishonest questions yesterday about emergency rooms.
In Southern California, according to health care professionals, in 2023, under the Biden administration, Southern California's, quote, entire health care system was being bombarded with illegal immigrants and forcing American patients to endure longer wait times.
In Denver, Colorado, the CEO of Denver Health stated that 8,000...
Illegal immigrants made 20,000 visits to the city's health system in 2023 leaving an uncompensated bill totaling over $10 million.
So when a legal alien goes to the emergency room, who's paying for it?
The American taxpayer.
Look, the president likes to have a little fun every now and then, and I think both things can be true at the same time.
The Democrats have given the administration this opportunity, and we don't like laying people off.
Nobody takes joy in that around here.
