Why would they need it? You can’t get Medicaid as an illegal immigrant.
I am suddenly reminded of that Tech Ingredients video on YouTube where he turned a A/C window unit into a liquid heat pump.
Not as reassuring as it could be, but it helps.
Beep at least actually does puppet this account (even though they have several accounts).


And doubled down then changed their comments as if the way back machine doesn’t exist in order to backtrack without having to admit they were wrong.


Now apparently owned by NordVPN. And based in Panama according to another commenter.
Yeah. No. There’s still the requirement to provide a SSN and other identifying information in order to get Medicaid. Specifically documents that confirm residency and citizenship
But even if what you say is true (and that still doesn’t mean they are legally eligible for Medicaid), that still doesn’t explain why ICE would need that information. Because specifically, because there’s a whole apparatus (used to be before toddler in chief got reelected) who’s whole purpose was to audit this system. This is why Medicaid can come after your assets if you use it when you have other means.
So why is ICE, an agency who’s purpose is not to investigate citizens, gaining any access to a database of people who are citizens. This is as much a “Need to Know” thing as it is a “make it make sense” thing.
It’s like gaining access to the fingerprints of service members for the purposes of making sure they’re citizens. The federal government already investigated and continues to investigate their status as legally residing in the country and that data base is for identifying service members who have died so their remains can be returned.
