Dr Oz announces that the Trump administration is "going to defer $1.2 billion more dollars from California today. They just got the note. The growth of personal care services in California is twice the rate of every other state."

First of all, you can't trust any numbers or statistics cited by this Administration without independent verification. Second of all, they're bastards whose primary intent is to punish their enemies, defined as anyone who doesn't support them politically.

Spending growth twice the national rate warrants scrutiny, but it isn't proof of fraud. California's nonpartisan analysts cite more recipients, higher caregiver wages and more care hours. What specific improper claims justify this $1.2 billion hold?

Reminds me of being in a meeting at work regarding leave of absence trends and one of the executives said “we need to look into why so many more women than men are taking maternity leaves”.

Maybe it's because California is the most populated state in America! Or they are withholding money because Trump is jealous of the state! Gavin Newsom is much more popular than Trump will ever be! 🤔

California officials have strongly pushed back against the admin's actions, arguing that federal government has not provided concrete evidence of systemic fraud & that growth in in-home care reflects a deliberate policy to help elderly & disabled residents avoid costly institutional nursing homes

Dr?? Oz, former tv mouthpiece, is NO Doctor!!! Big Liar, publicist and JERK... Trumps Paid Liar with NO medical advice worth listening to.

Personal care services are funded for folks with disabilities. So Oz and Trump are going to withhold federal funding from our most vulnerable citizens? Also, we have a population of almost 40 million people. How is this fraud? Where is the fraud? Their cruelty is the point.

I particularly like the dismissive way he describes PCA services. Why should we bother to care for the elderly and disabled? They should just die and decrease the surplus population, right?

Why do I already feel like I'm living in Russia everyone one there has committed some kind of fraud. When can we start dragging them out of the peoples house

If you hate on another State and Americans living in said other State just because some rich pay-to-play grifting politicians are telling you to, sorry but you have really lost the thread.

Because MAGA believes in guilty without being proven innocent. Just look at how they all cheer or defend police and Trump's extrajudicial killings.

Alt headline: Republicans are hell bent on cutting in home care and institutionalizing seniors and disabled. Nazi's went after the disabled first. A vote for Republican in this midterm is a vote for the above and other destructive fascist maneuvers.

Yeah, the only problem with that is the immigrants that work in those places are afraid of ICE, and are staying home. So there isn't enough staff for the rehab hospitals or the retirement homes.

CA is more than twice the size of every other state you ignorant twit. Make it make sense. So you want to throw old people into the street rather than keep them at home?

I don’t understand why California doesn’t just withhold their fair share of federal dollars. This administration is punitive and will never be legally, morally or ethically accountable. Why give it to republicans in the first place?
