Consider This from NPR - What DOGE could mean for Medicare and Medicaid?

Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency is quickly expanding its reach through the federal government.

It recently accessed systems at the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services. Musk and his team now are looking at key payment and contracting systems for Medicare and Medicaid.

That was first reported by the Wall Street Journal.

On X, Musk said he believes quote "big money fraud is happening."

Medicare insures older people. Medicaid offers insurance to low income people and those with disabilities.

These two health insurance programs serve tens of millions of people, and they consume a huge part of federal and state budgets. So how could DOGE impact these services?

1A - ‘If You Can Keep It’: Where Is The Resistance?

President Donald Trump has dominated the news cycle in the earliest days of office, firing off rounds of executive orders, turning billionaire Elon Musk loose on the federal workforce, and blitzing the press.

But where is the opposition? Democrats lost big in 2024, ceding control of the Senate, House, and the presidency to the GOP. But as Trump continues to swing big at our governing apparatus, they've been more passive than some Americans would like.

Where does the party go from here? And what sort of plan do they have to respond to Trump's plans for the next four years?
