After charging that Republicans were chasing cuts to Medicare and Social Security, President Joe Biden has a new GOP target.
Biden is lashing out at a Trump administration policy-whisperer who is out of government and advising lawmakers on where to slash discretionary spending as Republicans and Democrats prepare for bruising negotiations over the debt limit.
The offensive marks the latest front in the White House’s fight against so-called MAGA Republicans, a charge Biden heaped on Democrats’ opponents in the lead-up to last year's midterm elections and that the president’s aides suggest could be replicated in the lead-up to 2024. “We’re glad the administration has moved off their lies about Republicans and Social Security and Medicare,” Vought said in a statement to the Washington Examiner. “Now we hope they will look at our ideas to cut woke and weaponized bureaucracy to ensure Medicaid is available for vulnerable populations.”
And it has also emerged as a theme in the 2024 presidential race, with Gov. Ron DeSantis under renewed scrutiny for his 2012 support of a budget plan put forth by then-Rep. Paul Ryan, at the time chairman of the Budget Committee, which proposed retooling Medicare.
