This talking point literally originated on Laura Ingraham& #39;s show when a Senator from Minnesota bemoaned the fact that hospitals get more money for hospitalized COVID patients *on Medicare*, which makes TOTAL FUCKING SENSE TO DO, you absolute fucking nincompoop. https://twitter.com/LadeIsPower/status/1260583929578479617">https://twitter.com/LadeIsPow...

Hospitalized COVID patients are significantly more expensive to treat than the average hospitalized patient, so IT MAKES SENSE that hospitals treating these patients *ON MEDICARE* get more federal funding to do so.

Republicans don& #39;t like this, of course, because they hate poor people and are actively seeking Medicare reductions, not expansions. Some Black people are repeating this as a CoNsPiRaCy theory why? Because they& #39;re dumb, to put it simply.

Was it something I said?
