Sounds like BS. Non-citizens are allowed to be on Medicaid if they are lawfully present (https://www.shiphelp.org/about-medicare/blog/medicare-and-immigration-status) and your article concedes that "'The vast majority of the growth was related to asylum programs and people who came in on NTAs (Notices to Appear),". The article claims, without any support, that these non-citizens are mostly "'Illegal immigrants" but concedes "the data is still being analyzed".

So it looks like another is a long list of claims made by DOGE that have little support in reality.

LOL..... being allowed in on a "Notice to Appear" means they were illegals that got stopped and let loose in the country because Biden Admin wanted to claim they weren't illegal.
No matter what DOGE finds, you'll just gainsay it and claim it isn't so.

Because DOGE hasn’t found any fraud yet. 😆

Just lots and lots of people obeying laws DOGE disagrees with. 😆

The courts have found fraud…in Trump’s business records.

Remember, you said the middle class is doing perfectly fine:
And yet the middle class isn't suffering at all, nobody on social security has had any problems, and all the hoopla is made-up media garbage.

No one is hurting, you say. So what's your problem, even if we were to concede the "point" in your OP, which no one should without galaxy-sized qualifications?

A "terrifying number of illegals on Medicaid," your link says. What Chicken Little hysteria. I think any sane person will recognize what the real "made-up media garbage" is here.

If true then addresses in the system they'd be easily deported by now.

Because the CNN article that makes that claim is comparing an entire year under Biden versus 2 months under Trump. Also, you don't "easily" find and deport over a million people overnight, they just now discovered them.

Yeah they "found," thousands of 150 year old people collecting social security months ago. No one was arrested. Why?

Why are they deporting fewer now than they were last year?

You believe everything doge says but they've been caught lying a bunch of times.

That claim isn't true.
Deportations are massively up since Trump took office.
Read the article and stop swallowing CNN lies.

Ur article says nothing about deportations but CBP stats on their website show a decrease in deportations in 2025 compared to last year same time.

Regarding DOGE it looks like they just don't know what they're looking at, just like previous false claims about the millions of dead people collecting social security. They don't understand how to read the data.

Since over 200,000 people a month were being let in by Biden, I suppose that makes sense.
Now that the border has been sealed, there's just the people in the country we have to search for and scrummage up.

Makes sense? but the number of illegals according to you in this country is 20 million, right? Here you say 1.3 million where we know their home addresses.

But they only deport 11,000 a month, a decrease in rate compared to Biden? Seems way too slow to make any meaningful difference.

What report shows that?

Customs and border protection posts their numbers publicly. Deportations are down compared to last year.
