Someone needs to remind this fake Christian that it’s a sin to lie, and that Jesus was against taking from the poor to give to the rich.
House Speaker Mike Johnson made an appearance on Fox’s Sunday Morning Futures with Maria Bartiromo this weekend, and was asked how they’re going to manage to reach their goal of $1.5 trillion in spending cuts without going after mandatory spending, and Johnson repeated the lie that there’s some sort of massive fraud on the beneficiary end of the system.
There is fraud in the system, but it’s primarily on the provider end, like we saw from the likes of Sen. Rick Scott.
Here’s Johnson pretending there are a bunch of “able bodied men” receiving benefits that aren’t eliglble as one of their excuses to gut the program:
BARTIROMO: So knowing that 76 percent of the spending goes toward mandatory spending, Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, where are the offsets?
