And nobody has anything to say? 

 

I don't get it, the lies the Republicans tell that are so easy to debunk and still some people believe it.

Its pointing more at GOP for telling porkies on this one it seems with Mostly False/Misleading vs Partially Accurate. You'd need to take off your GOP tinted glasses to see anything tho, but here's a clue, Mostly False and Misleading means they are telling lies.

 

Claim	Source	Key Details	Fact-Check Verdict
Republicans' budget bill will cause 15 million Americans (mostly low-income families/children) to lose health coverage, leading to tens of thousands of preventable deaths and 20%+ premium spikes.	Bernie Sanders & Democrats	Ties to Medicaid cuts and ACA subsidy expiration in the "One Big Beautiful Bill Act" (reconciliation law passed earlier in 2025).	Partially accurate but exaggerated. CBO and KFF project 7.5–10 million more uninsured over 10 years from Medicaid changes and subsidy lapses (not 15 million; Sanders' figure combines multiple factors beyond subsidies alone, where CBO estimates 4.2 million). Premium out-of-pocket costs for subsidized ACA enrollees could rise 75–114% (average $888 to $1,593+ annually) if subsidies expire, per KFF—worse than 20% but affecting ~20 million. No direct CBO death estimates, but coverage losses correlate with higher mortality (e.g., prior ACA analyses show ~2,000–45,000 annual preventable deaths per million uninsured).
Democrats are holding funding hostage to provide taxpayer-funded healthcare to "illegal aliens," ignoring waste/fraud in programs like Medicaid.	Republicans (e.g., Speaker Mike Johnson)	GOP CR is "clean" to avoid partisan add-ons; blames Dems for demanding immigrant benefits and spending hikes.	Mostly false/misleading. Democrats seek protections for lawfully present immigrants (e.g., refugees, green card holders), not undocumented ones, who are already barred from federal Medicaid/ACA subsidies by law. GOP bill does target "waste" (e.g., $698 billion Medicaid cuts 2026–2034 via work requirements, block grants), but these disproportionately hit low-income U.S. citizens, reducing resources for the poorest households by 2–4% of income while boosting the richest by 2–4% via tax cuts.
Shutdown is solely Democrats' fault for rejecting bipartisan compromise; GOP bill protects vulnerable Americans by cutting abuse.	Republicans (e.g., Johnson on Fox/ABC)	Johnson called it "entirely avoidable," tying Dems to "far-left" demands; emphasizes citizen-first eligibility.	Shared blame, GOP downplays own role. Senate rejected both parties' CRs (53–47 Dem, 55–45 GOP); Dems wanted subsidy extensions/repeals in the short-term bill, GOP refused. Bill's cuts aren't just "abuse"—CBO shows $1T+ total healthcare reductions, shifting costs to states and raising system-wide expenses as more delay care.
