Trump administration going after Medicaid in CA

The topic "CA Medicaid" is trending on bluesky. When I clicked on it I saw a post by The CA Attorney General that said that the administration is targeting one billion dollars in Medicaid that helps seniors and others with disabilities stay in their homes.

I believe JD announced it because he is concerned about "fraud". Yeah, that's the ticket. Remember when trump said not too long ago that he only wants to spend money on war and ballrooms? The excuse the "cleanup crew" in the R party used to explain that comment was that he wants to cut fraud. And now JD is in charge. They're starting with the blue states, but don't expect it to end there.
