The same administration who banned certain networks from the press pool & influenced the FCC to censor Jimmy Kimmel & 60Minutes. This administration is laughable.

Since the start of the second Trump administration, doctors and policy experts across the country have increasingly warned that immigrants are avoiding medical care as deportation fears weigh heavily on their day-to-day lives.
motherjones.com
Fear kept immigrants away from Medicaid. Now many can't come back.
Funding cuts have locked hundreds of thousands of patients who hesitated to renew amid ICE raids out of California's Medicaid program.
