    Good morning!

    Lucille, Beautiful colors, many sources from earth to sky. Great views for a Monday morning.

    Tex has triumphed over technical difficulties, with a coffee press that allows you to make your brew as strong as you like. Thumbs up!

    I’m having a cup and enjoying the view, thanks to you both.

    Afternoon All. Cold and overcast right now. We had snow showers, I guess you would call them, all afternoon yesterday. It didn’t stick because the ground isn’t frozen yet. But it got down in the low 30’s last night. Watch out, it’s coming your way………maybe, except for down South. Hopefully it will cool off a little there.

    Hope you all have a nice day.

    This is quite interesting, if true.

    Democrats Are Quietly Pulling the Plug on Free Healthcare for Illegal Immigrants

    Democrats spent years insisting that providing free healthcare to illegal immigrants was a moral imperative. They haven’t exactly kept that a secret. During the 2020 Democratic presidential primaries, every single candidate promised their healthcare plans would cover healthcare for illegals. Now, though, they’ve shut down the federal government to protect funding streams for these programs—but are pretending that’s not what they are after.

    Nevertheless, we know what their objectives are. But their crusade to give free healthcare to illegals has hit a bit of a snag. Faced with exploding costs and healthcare systems on the brink of collapse, blue state governors are quietly pulling the plug on their own sacred cow.

    According to a report from National Review, Gavin Newsom in California, Tim Walz in Minnesota, and JB Pritzker in Illinois have all rolled back or frozen Medicaid programs for illegal immigrants in recent months after discovering the obvious: it’s simply not sustainable to keep offering taxpayer-funded health insurance to illegal immigrants.

    Walz previously celebrated Minnesota’s expansion in 2023 as a major achievement. Now he’s consenting to cuts because the state is staring down a $6 billion deficit by 2028.

    The numbers tell the story Democrats don’t want you to hear.

    California alone spends $8.5 billion annually providing Medi-Cal to illegal residents. Around 1.6 million illegal immigrants enrolled after Newsom expanded eligibility, joining the roughly 15 million Californians already in the program. Illinois saw its immigrant health benefits program balloon to over 30,000 enrollees in just three years, costing $682 million in 2024 and contributing to a state deficit of $3.2 billion.

    But the financial burden is only part of the problem. The influx of illegal immigrant patients has created severe shortages in healthcare access for everyone. In California, about 40% of adults couldn’t see a doctor for urgent needs within state-mandated timeframes in 2024. Specialist care is even worse. One in five Sacramento County enrollees reported difficulty accessing cardiologists, rheumatologists, or urologists. Adding hundreds of thousands of illegal residents to an already strained system predictably made these shortages worse.

      Dem “principals” are easily trashed. They’ll try to put a “compassionate” spin on it.

      I recently had two patients (presumed illegal) in hospitals for weeks after they had strokes, requiring admission but with no way to discharge them because no friends or family in the USA would take them, they could not travel back to their home countries alone, and no nursing home wanted them. No one will pay for their care so the hospitals have to keep them.

    HAPPY BIRTHDAY, U.S. NAVY!

    On October 13, 1775, the U.S. Navy was born when the Continental Congress authorized the arming of two sailing vessels with 80 men and 10 carriage guns in order to intercept British supply and munitions transports. The Declaration of Independence came nine months later, followed by the creation of the Department of the Navy in 1798.
