House Speaker Mike Johnson stood strong against CNN’s Jake Tapper this week, shutting down misleading claims about Republican efforts to save Medicaid. Tapper tried to trap Johnson by claiming 8 million Americans would lose health coverage under the new Trump-backed budget. Johnson fired back with facts, exposing how liberal media lies to protect handouts for illegal aliens.
The GOP’s “big, beautiful bill” targets fraud and abuse, not hardworking Americans. Over 1.4 million illegal immigrants are sucking Medicaid dry—your tax dollars shouldn’t fund their free healthcare. Johnson made it clear: This reform protects pregnant mothers, the disabled, and seniors while kicking out those who don’t belong here.
Tapper looked flustered as Johnson schooled him on basic math. The 8 million number? That’s mostly illegal border crossers and freeloaders gaming the system. Real Americans won’t lose coverage—they’ll finally get the care they deserve without subsidizing lawbreakers. Democrats hate this because they need dependent voters to stay in power.
This is about moral leadership. Liberals want open borders and endless handouts. Conservatives believe in rules, fairness, and putting America first. Johnson called out the lie that Medicaid cuts hurt the poor. The only “vulnerable” people Democrats care about are non-citizens breaking our laws.
President Trump promised to protect Medicare and Social Security—and he’s delivering. The Republican plan slashes waste, not benefits for citizens. While the left screeches about “heartless” cuts, they’re really mad about losing a voter-bribing scheme that bankrupts our country.
Midterm elections are coming, and Americans will see results. Just like after Trump’s first term, this budget will boost the economy and restore dignity. Workers will keep more paychecks instead of funding welfare for people who shouldn’t be here. Democrats can’t hide from these truths anymore.
The media’s fake outrage won’t work this time. Johnson didn’t back down from Tapper’s gotcha questions. He stood tall for taxpayers, law enforcement, and every parent struggling to pay medical bills while illegal immigrants cut the line. Real leadership means making tough calls.
Conservatives are done apologizing for enforcing laws. This fight isn’t just about budgets—it’s about saving America from leftist parasites. November will be a reckoning. Patriots see through the lies and demand a government that works for them, not against them.
