Republican lies keep rolling on.

Mr. Jeffries, when did you stop beating your wife?

He should stop wasting time debunking and start shaming the lier. "Who said that? Because it's a lie, and I bet they know it's a lie. You should ask them why they are lying if they believe in their cause. And you shouldn't repeat their lies when _you_ know they are lies."

Rep. Jeffries, You should dig out the campaign speech where f47 says that after this election we wont have to worry about elections, then overlay that with his speech to the military leaders about going into American cities, for war. Thats very scary for our future. Play it over and over, wake up

Dude has dead eyes and dead spirit.

Hakeem seems to spell it out to crooked Trump. It is illegal to provide medical coverage to undocumented individuals.

Man we need to get this Frankenstein-looking motherfucker off the air.

Republicans control the narrative. Lies seep into mainstream.

This shutdown has nothing to do with health insurance. Republicans do not care. They want to shut it down so they can't vote to release the Epstein files. Period. But they can't shut down forever and we will not shut up about it either.😉

That Anchor asks the worst questions ever. Warren had to educate her 6 months ago about our spending budget. How does she have this job? Does CNBC hire from FOX?

Both Vance and Johnson lie as often as they breath. And Trump showed you how much he cares about Democrats with that AI video. @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social , @schumer.senate.gov stop negotiating with them. And fight for more than healthcare. Are you blind to all the chaos that surrounds us?

You can’t believe a word republicans utter

Republicans don't know how to govern. They know how to lie & enrich themselves & their special interest friends. youtu.be/TCB-b2MZ1zI

Only a MAGA mind would believe this crap.

Sure will SUCK when American companies go under due to Trump's policies...while immigrants do or don't get medical care because MAGAts are sociopaths..

Btw, reporters KNOW the truth when listening to people lie and asking this 🐎💩 but …CONTINUE!

It is sick that Jeffries or any member of congress has to spend "valuable" time refuting a blatant lie tied to an actual statute. What's next? Trump tells America that Democrats want to hand out special 3 dollar bills for undocumented immigrants to use in supermarkets.

we are so fucked

This guy is going to get us all into deeper trouble. Tell THEM what they need to hear. Tell US what we need to hear!

Just once I would like a politician to answer this exact question by asking the reporter to explain the way undocumented immigrants are getting benefits when the law prohibits it. I mean this is well known and they know it. Put them on the spot and explain how they are simply regurgitating lies.

Exactly!

Meanwhile Dems are silent and don’t try to combat any of the lies. There are only an handful of Dems that are good at messaging but the entire party as a whole needs a makeover. They are going to have to get in the dirt with the republicans, they are not on the same playing field.

And you would think that CNBC would have the resources to independently & announce & clearly that TRUMP IS LYING TO YOU TO FUND BILLIONAIRE TAX CUTS, DON'T LISTEN TO HIM!

Take the gloves off, LET'S GO!

Jeffries: “thank you for accepting the Republican framing on the reason for the shutdown”. I know he clapped back but I would love to go ONE DAY without the media accepting the Republican framing as gospel.

Where are the "MEDBEDS"!

He knows a thing or two of AIPAC. He pays into it

Any chance he can go on Fox and say that?

What is that inept and stupid journalist’s name?

“Is it true you want to restore medical benefits to illegal aliens?” Is she misinformed or just plain stupid? Our media is a disgrace. They are why we have a dribbling moron as president.

And there’s no restoring what they never had. I HATE stupid journalists asking STUPID questions

What a stupid fucking question, who is doing her research? Apparently it someone without a working brain!

Ask stupid questions get answers that make you look stupid🤣

When we had taxpaying immigrants, they PAID taxes to our country without asking for benefits in return. So, loss of that revenue, another brilliant move by old don and his crackpot team.

We need leadership that can speak simply & is relatable... this rhythmic cadence and sophistication isn't working as a strong voice of opposition.. my 🪙🪙

They weak believe the lies. They just need some thing to always be pissed about

Thank you CNBC for directing him to a real answer. Otherwise, Jeffries and Schumer ramble on about simple majorities and up or down votes.

Every republican knows this and keep pushing that lie regardless!

Yeah: knife fetuses out of the womb and display on a pole. Cut genitals off to make a purse. Oh, the US Cavalry did that at the Sand Creek massacre.

Health care is a human right

Fox ain't going to have someone who eats their lunch anymore

I miss the disinformation detectors from the first nightmare lie-festival of 2016.

he should have said: why are asking that Q you should know that's an outright lie

Step down now, Jeffries!

At some point I sincerely hope that the blowback against these biased “journalists” is so severe that they find themselves unable to find work anywhere.

I love reporters and journalists doing the lying for this administration.

Ask the news why do throw out more additional lies that you know 100% & is NOT TRUE !

But there's nuance to highlight loopholes The reality check: Emergency rooms are required by law (EMTALA, 1986) to stabilize anyone regardless of status - but that's emergency care, not comprehensive "free healthcare" Hence the running expenses

Many undocumented immigrants avoid hospitals entirely due to fear of deportation

If that were true, you wouldn’t just see folks crossing from Mexico or Central America. You’d see planeloads of North Koreans, Somalis, Russians, you name it, lining up at JFK and LAX like it’s Black Friday at Walmart. Because who wouldn’t? Free healthcare is like the golden ticket

If undocumented individuals get free healthcare by law , ya see even North Koreans and Somalis coming to US not just latinos and hispanics , who wouldn't ? Absurd

They’re incapable of fighting back against the republican lying machine. This is the number one talking point of the GOP. They need to get on every single channel and scream this from the rooftops.

The dems should say "give us x and we won't force the vote on the epstein files" and then do it anyways

Ugh. Legitimizes question with an “of course not and thank you.” What will going to take to light a fire under Jeff‘s ass?

the fact she asked that question in such a manner suggests she thinks it’s an actual goal…’is it true…?’

I’m pretty sure that if an undocumented individual shows up at a hospital with an injury, they will get treated. That's inconsistent with his statement. He needs better words.

Tell the lie often enough and it becomes the truth. The Autocrats Playboik.

Exactly! She’s a disgrace! Thank you!

OMG! Are you ever going to say that this is ALL cover for trump being in the epstein files. Just say it. We ALL know that everything happening now is for a desperate malignant excuse of a cockroach to hide his crimes from his dim witted supporters. Jfc, enough with the platitudes. Just say it. 🙄

"restore"??? "RESTORE"????????

Gee, that almost seems like a slanted and stupid question...

This needs to be broadcasted everywhere and all the time. It is the biggest thing MAGAS hate the most and always talk about being against. They don't want illegals, according to them, take away what belongs to citizens.

See how this CNBC crackhead gives the benefit of the doubt to the Domestic Terrorist Party? Perfect example from the media of why we are where we are today. The media has been gaslighting the American people for decades with this type of narrative.

It’s always been the law!

That's interesting.

I can’t believe she asked this!

Dems are continually fighting lies.. start talking truth rather than rehash their lies.. news only broadcasts republican lies which isn’t helping

He needs to add; maybe this job isn’t for you if you don’t know that.

But Trump just bragged about giving them cheaper drugs... www.cnbc.com/2025/09/30/t...

Why are you posting as one?

"Is it true that...?" Just one step away from "Isn't it true that...?" Journalism has fallen so far.

Jeffries needs to either grow a spine or get out. Schumer too.

If current Dem leadership is guilty of anything, it is messaging. FFS, the illegals' Healthcare lie has been the magats go-to propaganda since before the last election. Along with blanket transgender care. Why are they only responding now?

Very "have you stopped beating your children" vibes.

He should have called her stupid for asking that question.

The fact that they even asked the question 😡

YEAH!!!

Restore?

Wow. I believe this is the future of the media political discourse since the Libertarian/right wing nuts billionaire’s will now own most of it. 🤬🤬

IF ONLY TRUMP WOULD FOLLOW THE LAW !!!!

Mr. Trump wants this government to shut down because then he’ll own it! I don’t know how you don’t see this but like so many other things happening these days I’m not surprised? America has fallen so far down this dystopian rabbit hole that it really can’t see the forest for the trees! C’est la vie

No kidding: I am genuinely surprised #HakeemJeffries is defending the Democratic Party. It's tepid and milquetoast but at this point I honestly don't expect even this from him.

Even I KNOW that's a lie....what a stupid question.....🙄🙄😤

Saw a clip of a guy on CNBC asking the same question (don’t know if it was on the same show) and Jeffries said “for the third time, that’s a lie”. Don’t know who that guy is

He needs to be saying this on Fox and Newsmax.

@cnbc.com asking the important questions, 🙄 and propelling us into authoritarianism.

These damn MAGA voters can keep believing Trump lies or they can tell Republican Congress to give them back their healthcare and safety net benefits they cut to give tax cuts to the rich. WAKE THE FUCK UP. Red States will feel more feel the pain most. Democrats told you do.

He needs to go on Fox to state this!

Immigrants are being used to end Democracy for the rest of us.

We once paid $50 for a hospital visit in France as tourists. These people are insane man

Savannah Guthrie just played dumb and asked a softer version of this question this morning. It would be clearer to say, “We know that undocumented ppl don’t get any federal benefits for medical care…”

.@CNBC doesn’t know that?

Is it true you want to make tomato and cucumber salad illegal for most Americans...?

The GOP lies constantly!!!

Just watched Johnson push the lie when he said the Democrates want to give all illegals healthcare. Republicans all they want is to help the American people. Another lie, as most policies are severely detrimental to the average American. The average American will suffer, and the rich get a gold mine

Amateur journalist. Ridiculously uninformed or stupid.

The first words out of Jeffries’ mouth should have been “Donald Trump is lying to America about this.”

Now I know why I quit cnbc 3 years ago

Well… if someone who is broke, shows up in the ER , they will be seen , and billed, but the bill will eventually be sold off to collections and the hospital will claim it as a Good Samaritan loss and get reimbursed… as it should be. Hakeem has 101 things to blame on the Republicans, he’s useless.

Taxpayers should not be funding ICE especially in light of the disastrous Laken Riley Act. Not to mention the SCOTUS pro-discrimination ruling

What kind of idiot is she. First, it’s a lie. Second, you can’t “restore” something that never existed. Fire that ignorant bitch!

And it's a fuckass bitch law for countries with no money and no freedom. There is no human alive that should be denied medical coverage, and it doesn't matter where they are, where they came from, or what sort of paperwork they are missing.

I would say, "as a news agency, you should be reporting this claim as a lie. It's your fucking job to report lies. Stop asking stupid fucking questions that you should know without asking me to do your fucking job."

Release the Epstein files!

Another right leaning media outlet repeating right wing messaging is exposed, again.

This is what trump sent to fed employees today

@cnbc.com has no shame. They are part of the olygarchy helping the felon 🍊🤡 destroy our democracy. They are the very same olygarchy that oppresses us.

Don't just say it's a lie. Name the liar. Quote them. Generalizations are just interpreted as observations these days. These types of responses are sadly boring regardless of how true they are. You need to get people's attention. MAGA is excellent at it. Learn to play the game better!

This is the first call-out of this as a lie by a Democratic party leader. Their messaging and timing really sucks.

“Blame an immigrant” is the forever playbook. It’s so very tired.

Fox doesn’t invite him on.

Get Buttigieg to say it.

But for the rest of us--we will do our best.
