A GoFundMe to re-fund Medicaid!

$723 billion in Medicaid funding will be cut by the Donald's Death Panels bill—but we can totally fix that.

Dear Friend,

We’re writing you today in support of a brilliant initiative by some friends of ours to replace the $723 billion in Medicaid cuts Trump wants to inflict on America… with a GoFundMe. (Or, well, not really one…. Since GoFundMe's mechanism breaks for goals over a billion, they'll be launching 723 campaigns, one every twelve or so hours. Still, that's just $23,000 every second for one single year—and we're done!)

This might seem like a long shot. Our friends admit that it might be a little bit easier to ensure the Donald's Death Panels bill dies a pitiful death in the Senate. But something's got to be done, because Trump's Big Beautiful Monstrous Psychopathic Bill will, if it passes, take vital medical services away from over fifteen million vulnerable Americans, many of whom will die.

The Trump regime doesn't care who lives and who dies, because social Darwinism. In fact, the Big Murder Bill is just "soft eugenics." No involuntary sterilizations, no full-on death camps (though many billions are allocated for detention camps and such)—but the gutting of basic services will take us one step closer to the technolords' dream of turning America into a monarchy… in which there will still be some sort of "President," but they'll be more like a CEO or, let's speak plainly, king, presiding over a feudal network of "Freedom Cities," with the "least successful" Americans so focused on basic survival, they'll be grateful for whatever the local technolord offers.

This isn't sci-fi. The "Neoreactionary" gurus and their tech billionaire acolytes speak quite openly about this nightmare vision. Many Republicans—up to and including JD Vance—are followers. (Additional sources, with PDFs for those that are paywalled, can be found at this page we set up for an earlier action.)

Our friends admit that any money raised by their crackpot GoFundMe will actually go to UndueMedicalDebt, which pays off medical debt for people in need. They also admit they're just out for attention. You can help them with that—because a whole lot of attention is needed to ensure that the malicious, cynical, narcissistic, full-of-themselves shitheads in charge of the White House don't get away with mass murder. And if a lot of medical debt gets paid off in the process… well, it's all win-win, as the bros say.

Love,
The Yes Men
