White House extends Rick Scott feud, says Social Security still on ’chopping block’ despite amended plan
Fox News
The White House refused to back down on their attacks on the GOP over Social Security and Medicare even after Sen. Rick Scott, R-Fla., explicitly changed his plan to leave those programs alone.
Fed-up with the Democratic attacks, Scott announced in an op-ed Friday that he has amended his proposal with "specific exceptions for Social Security, Medicare, national security, veterans’ benefits, and other essential services."

Asked if Scott's amended plan put an end to the conversation on Social Security and Medicare spending, Jean-Pierre took a victory lap over his concessions.
