Hold on, hold the fuck on… the Trump administration is spending $500 million taxpayer dollars to paint OUR side of the border wall black?
The wall HE said MEXICO was going to pay for? That wall?

But we “can’t afford” pediatric cancer research?!?

What would have happened if Joe Biden or Barack Obama moved a convicted sex trafficker to a minimum security prison? Protecting Americans against #sextrafficking should be a bipartisan issue!

BARTIROMO: You tweeted that Democrats leaked intelligence

TRUMP: They should be prosecuted

BARTIROMO: Who specifically?

TRUMP: We can find out. You go up and tell the reporter, 'national security, who gave it?' You have to do that. And I suspect we'll be doing things like that.

This isn’t politics. This is people.
People who are dying.
People who deserve dignity.

These cuts won’t hit headlines — but they’ll hit families hard.

Hospice isn’t a partisan issue. It’s a moral one.

Let’s act like it.

According to MedPAC, around 20% of hospice patients require intensive inpatient or crisis care — much more expensive than the daily reimbursement covers.

More cuts = more corners cut.

Hospice providers are already stretched thin.

🧾 The CMS FY2025 rule caps per-patient payments at $34,465.34/year, with a 4% penalty if reporting requirements aren’t met.

Add 6% sequestration, and many small/rural programs may not survive.

1/
The #BigBeautifulBill increased Medicare sequestration for hospice from 2% to nearly 6%.

That’s a tripling of cuts—with no increase in what it actually costs to care for patients at the end of life.
