Thousands of kids in Florida lost Medicaid coverage on Easter — nearly half a million over past year - Alternet via MSN

“Florida has dropped over 1.3 million people, including 460,000 children, from its state Medicaid program since April 1, 2023, after the end of a pandemic-era policy that banned states from removing ineligible participants from the health insurance program for disabled and low-income people,” the Orlando Sentinel reports.

In January the Tallahassee Democrat reported, “the Sunshine State, with 2.5 million uninsured, also has one of the nation’s highest shares of residents without health coverage.”

1. The governor doesn't care.

It would take the entire suburbs of Florida to wake up and show outrage before he'll even have shame.

2. He wouldn't even have shame then.

He would just be angry and lash out.
And figure out how to screw people even more.

4. He got humbled when he gave up the candidacy for president

So his anger will be measured. Admittedly, it will take a very loud public outrage, which is not something I've seen in Florida since the Lawton years.

5. I am not sure if he was humbled.

But yes perhaps he learned some lessons.
About how to be more clever with his skullduggery.

We shall see what he learned by his behavior in the coming months.

Chicken shit GOP poliicies like that will make it happen.

7. During an election year. Use it against the GOP

States like Florida have worse public health outcomes because of their high rate of uninsured.

8. That's what happens in red states....

especially ones whose governor tries to out-Trump Donald Trump.
Being mean and vindictive is in the GQP DNA.

10. I agree.

I do most of my posts on my phone. It does make it challenging to provide all the information you'd like to include while on the run. What are you going to do?
