Holy shit. This whole “enhanced Obamacare subsidies” thread faded into the background quite a bit since the Dems’ October-November Kobayashi Maru shutdown and all of convicted felon President Trump’s numerous other malefactions and harms inflicted upon Americans, but goddamn, to see it quantified like this by The CurrentGA/Georgia Recorder is staggering: Data they obtained show there are 550,000 fewer Peach State ACA enrollees in April 2026 than the 1.5 million in January 2025.
“I don’t know what we’re going to do, honestly” Monty Veazey, president of the Georgia Alliance of Community Hospitals, told the Current. “It’s a larger number than I anticipated,” he added of the monstrous enrollment drop that threatens an untold number of rural hospitals across the state.
“Anyone who’s saying that Medicaid cuts is why they’re closing is a liar,” said Curtis, Nebraska MAGAmerican April Roberts last July when the Washington Post asked her to comment on the then-imminent closure of the tiny town’s hospital. Despite being the wrong year, the wrong state, and the wrong specific government healthcare program it’s still a solid enough quote to use here in lieu of any similar ones from the Current’s reporting. Curtis’s hospital is indeed closed. Nobody saved it.
