At a time when 84% of Americans are worried about health care affordability, Republicans are “seriously considering” health care cuts to bankroll Trump’s warfare. Secretary of State Marco Rubio has criticized Iran for spending too much on weapons and not enough on its people, but he should take a closer look at what’s happening in his own backyard:
SHOT: On Monday, Rubio Said Iran Has Its Priorities Out of Whack. “Imagine in Iran that [if] instead of spending their wealth, billions of dollars, supporting terrorists or weapons, had spent that money on helping the people of Iran – you’d have a much different country,” Rubio said in an interview with Good Morning America.

CHASER: Two Days Later, Trump Said, “It’s Not Possible for Us to Take Care of Day Care, Medicaid, Medicare” Because He Needs Money for His Warfare. In a Wednesday press conference, Trump said, “It’s not possible for us to take care of day care, Medicaid, Medicare, all these individual things. […] We have to take care of one thing: military protection.” [HuffPost, 4/2/26]
