How Democrats Bury Costs and Build a Voter Pipeline.
This essay is a rebuttal to the Lincoln Square ad (see image), a viral deception flooding social media to hide the billions in healthcare benefits Democrats funnel to illegal immigrants.
The Big Lie Exposed
Note the political lie in this propaganda ad—parroted across social media by Democrats eager to believe anything that fuels their contempt for Trump, his supporters, and the GOP. The half-truth: “Undocumented immigrants are not eligible for Medicaid or subsidies.” Democrats push it as proof of compassion without cost. The truth is starkly different. It’s not omission—it’s deliberate propaganda.
Federal law bars direct funding. The full truth: Democrats’ $1.5 trillion shutdown demand indirectly channels billions. When the other facts are included, it’s a gaslighting lie.
The Hidden Billions
Emergency Medicaid alone drains $6–8 billion a year for acute care like childbirth and dialysis—your taxes paying ER bills for illegals. EMTALA forces hospitals to treat everyone, costing $40–50 billion annually in uncompensated care. Washington backfills $20–25 billion of that through Medicare and Medicaid’s DSH and UPL programs. Together, those backdoor subsidies rival the VA’s entire hospital budget.
The “smaller” programs pile on. School lunches (NSLP: $1.5 billion for non-citizen kids), WIC (~$500 million), and housing vouchers (~$2 billion) push the indirect cost past $150 billion each year. And the gap is widening. NCVS and GAO project a 10–15% spike in uncompensated care from 2024–2025 migrant surges.
Blue states magnify the drain. California’s Medi-Cal now offers full-scope coverage for all undocumented immigrants: $3.8 billion in 2024, rising to $8.5 billion in 2025. New York’s Essential Plan covers 200,000+ undocumented at $3.8 billion a year, while New York City alone burns $1 billion on migrant housing and hotels. Illinois shells out $500 million for migrant healthcare and shelters, plus $300 million for schools and WIC. Los Angeles adds $1.2 billion for ERs and food banks; Philadelphia pours in $200 million.

Commiecrats buying illegal votes at taxpayer expense.
Dem politicians and states are wasting and stealing Federal tax dollars. Keep the gov’t shutdown. We’re better off.
Just like when the Rats say illegal aliens don’t vote, even though they know full well that many of them do, and in fact, millions of illegal aliens are registered to vote.
bkmk
EMTALA needs to be repealed to fix our hospitals.
Ok boys and girls, what is the common denominator?
Go to nearly any hospital emergency room and you’ll see lots of illegals. The hospital admin drone will bring you in to make sure you pay for treatment (as they should), but the illegals are never bothered.
Anybody that has been around a while KNOWS this.
Any one that has had reason to go to an ER. Knows the lobby is full. And while not being an MD. You see the majority of people waiting appear to not have “emergency” needs.
And generally don’t speak English. And it’s not just Spanish/ Portugese. In my area, lot’s of Creaole, Hmong, Hindi, Arabic, etc.. This is not a race thing.
Add to that.. 20 yrs ago.. Who ever heard of an “urgent care”?
And, now probably 1/3- 1/2 of Emergency rooms have closed. many hospitals here had ERs. But have shut them down.
Democrats lie all the time.
NOTHING they say can be trusted and taken at face value.
Speaker Johnson should call their bluff and offer a bill that says no illegal alien may receive any healthcare benefit funded by taxpayers, directly or indirectly.
EC
Works for me.
Station ICE officials at emergency rooms.
Colorado is paying for them now and wants to raise taxes.
I could not quite follow the numbers. I expect Democrats fund non-citizens in ways we do not know. Estimates may be too low.
