This week Vice President JD Vance announced that $259 million in Medicaid funding in Minnesota would be halted as part of the Trump administration’s “war on fraud.” However, many can’t help but notice how this seems to be more of an act of punishment against the blue state with governor Tim Walz calling out the controversial move.
According to an article from The Guardian, the Trump administration intends to “temporarily halt” more than a quarter of a million dollars in Medicaid funding. Vance claimed that the action was being taken to ensure the state was “a good steward of the American people’s tax money.”
