Back when George W. Bush was on the campaign trail for a second term in the White House in 2003, he went on to heap praise on Congress for approving a Medicare prescription drug benefit overhaul that he was 100 percent behind. The Democratic Party had been shaking their fists at the overhaul, trying to say that the GOP wanted to try and kill the publicly funded health care program for senior citizens. However, Bush was very clear when he called out his political opponents over this false charge.
“They used to call Medicare ‘Mediscare’ for people in the political process,” Bush stated during a visit to a hospital in the nation’s capital. “Some said Medicare reform can never be done. We’re acting. We acted on principle in Washington, D.C.”
And that wasn’t the first time this false claim was made. The exact same thing happened back when Bush was running against former Vice President Al Gore in 2000.
Bush said, “The man’s running on Mediscare — trying to frighten people to the voting booth.”
So it seems accusing Republicans of wanting to kill Medicare is a tactic that has been employed by radical leftists for quite some time. Scare the crap out of the voters by making claims that those on the other side of the political spectrum want to get rid of the programs and things that group of voters likes.

Yes, We Need Your Help
I hate being “that guy” who asks people to donate because I think our conservative news network is so crucial, but here I am…
When I left my cushy corporate job in 2017, I did so knowing that my family would have to make sacrifices. But I couldn’t continue to watch the nation slip into oblivion and was inspired by President Trump’s willingness to fight the good fight even at his own personal expense. What I didn’t realize then is that conservative media would be so heavily attacked, canceled, and defunded that the sacrifices would be extreme.
Many in this nation are struggling right now even though we weren’t struggling just a few years ago. I’m not alone. But I wake up every morning and operate the sites we’ve been able to build because there’s really no other choice. I refuse to be beholden to Big Tech like so many other conservative news outlets, which is why you won’t see Google ads here. With that said, it’s often challenging to pay the bills and it’s even harder to expand so we can get the America First message out to a wider audience.
The economic downturn has forced me to make a plea for help. Between cancel culture, lockdowns, and diminishing ad revenue, we need financial assistance in order to continue to spread the truth. We ask all who have the means, please donate through our Giving Fuel. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to expand our reach so the truth can get to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
We currently operate:
- NOQ Report
- Conservative Playlist
- Uncanceled News
- Based Underground
- Five other conservative news sites
I would even be willing to entertain investments and partnerships at this stage. I’ve turned them down in the past because editorial purity is extremely important. I’ll turn them down again if anyone wants us to start supporting RINOs or avoid “taboo” topics like voter fraud, vaccines, or transgender supremacy. But I’d talk to fellow America First patriots who want to help any (or all) of our 10 news sites. Hit me up at jdrucker (at) substack (dot) com if you’re interested.
For those who have the means and just want to help keep the mission of spreading a conservative, Christian message to the nation, please consider a generous donation.
