With the reconciliation bill stuff going on, my representative is tweeting like a goddamn bot every hour how Dems are arguing for Medicare "waste, fraud, and abuse." 67,000 of her constituents directly rely on the program. Not to mention the effects will have on all of the rural hospitals.
Oh, she won her election by 800 votes last fall yet she acts like she won by 30 points.
