As of Jan. 1, California is offering Medi-Cal to 760,000 undocumented migrants of all ages.

California’s health-care system is already strained, with long emergency-room wait times and a dire nurse shortage.

A dearth of beds and mental-health facilities prevents municipalities from moving the thousands of drug-addicted homeless off the streets and into treatment.

The state faces a staggering $68 billion deficit.

Yet the left opts to spend money on migrants instead of on California’s own, showing utter disregard for the health care of local residents.

The California Republican Party warns that adding 760,000 undocumented people to the state’s health insurance rolls will exacerbate “access problems.”

In short, Californians will wait longer and settle for less care.

Unattributed quote from the NY Post. You did well to omit the
throat-clearing anti-immigration dig at the Democrats. Also three days
old. I guess you've been busy looking thru all that Jan 6 video.

Scott's posts are unattributed quotes or blind links. Flip a coin!

Did you see your beloved murderous hero...Lt. Byrd's radio message
one minute after he gunned down Ashli?
Go ahead and try to explain that one.

No link from Witlessturd. Par for the course.

Funny how of all the police shootings that have happened in this country
since Jan 6, the only one Witlessmoron deplores is the shooting of a MAGA
rioter. Not only was that shooting justified, in that a murderous mob was
intent on sacking the officer's place of work, but - surprise! - the attacker
was White. That fact, in the eyes of MAGA-dweebs, outweighs every criminal
act she had committed.

Was that the message where the officer said he was afraid for his safety?
Or the one where he described the bloodthirsty rampagers who were intent
on destroying the Capitol?

He makes it easy on himself by omitting what he's actually talking
about. Not he ever admits when some outrage-bait he's fallen for turns
out to be incorrect, out-of-context or otherwise invalid.

His source is a Babbitt wrongful death suit or rather the frothing it
inspired in the right wing echo chamber. If he's interested in explanations:

https://www.justice.gov/usao-dc/pr/department-justice-closes-investigation-death-ashli-babbitt

"The investigation revealed no evidence to establish beyond a reasonable
doubt that the officer willfully committed a violation of 18 U.S.C. §
242. Specifically, the investigation revealed no evidence to establish
that, at the time the officer fired a single shot at Ms. Babbitt, the
officer did not reasonably believe that it was necessary to do so in
self-defense or in defense of the Members of Congress and others
evacuating the House Chamber. Acknowledging the tragic loss of life and
offering condolences to Ms. Babbitt’s family, the U.S. Attorney’s Office
and U.S. Department of Justice have therefore closed the investigation
into this matter."

I hope the double negative isn't too much for his reading comprehension.

Maybe after you explain what it has to do with the California health
care system. Never mind the "beloved... hero" you pulled from thin air.

But since you've brought up the insurrection, Dan Froomkin:

https://presswatchers.org/2024/01/a-jan-6-conspiracy-theory-that-hasnt-been-disproven/

I have a Jan. 6 conspiracy theory that — unlike the other one — has
never been disproven.

My theory is not that the government secretly instigated the
insurrection, but rather that certain officials effectively allowed it
to happen by insufficiently securing the Capitol.

Why they failed to appropriately prepare or respond remains a mystery.
News coverage of this angle has been almost nonexistent, despite my
entreaties over the years...

The foremost point of failure was the Capitol Police, whose leadership —
particularly its then-chief Steve Sund — ignored a Jan. 3 memo from
their own intelligence team...

Chief Sund ordered the perimeter defined with bike racks, which are only
effective for protests where most people are law-abiding. They do
nothing to stop a horde. In fact, they can get turned into weapons to
use against the police, as they were.

Incredibly, Sund actually ordered the removal of some bike racks late on
Jan. 5, for reasons that some of his colleagues considered suspect.

If he had put up a fence instead, the Capitol would never have been sacked.

End quote.

Just to save you the apoplexy, I should have said, "since you're
responding to my mention of the insurrection, etc."
