"Well, I have looked at that text," Brennan said. "It doesn't explicitly say what you are indicating, but unauthorized immigrants aren't eligible for ACA benefits."

"Yes, it does," Johnson lied. "It says very simply they want to repeal the changes that we made in the working families tax cut, the one big beautiful bill, and what those changes were is it removed health care going to illegal aliens, it removed all the fraud, waste, and abuse, and the Congressional Budget Office, CBO, said it achieved the desired result."

"They project it'll save almost 200 billion dollars," he continued. "Chuck Schumer's proposal on page 57 wants to return that 200 billion dollars of taxpayer funds to pay for illegal aliens and other non-citizens. That is a fact, and you can check it out on my website, speaker.gov."

That's not a fact, Mr. Liar Pants. The government shutdown is on the Republicans. Democrats are focused on healthcare affordability, reversing recent GOP fiscal moves to restore funding for Medicaid and health care subsidies. That's it.
