“Congratulations, the healthy people are paying for the sick people,” host Brian Kilmeade sarcastically said over a clip of Warren standing among supporters.



Twitter users ripped Kilmeade for his criticism, with a number of people saying his complaint is merely an accurate description of how health insurance is supposed to work.

Others on social media noted that "Fox & Friends" did not seem to mind when House Republicans passed their ObamaCare repeal bill last month and celebrated with speeches at the White House Rose Garden.

"Congratulations, the healthy people are paying for the sick people."

"Healthy people are paying for the sick people," says Kilmeade. That's, like, how Medicaid/care works. As do ER visits for the uninsured. https://t.co/dnMcZ8SV0c — Dan Zak (@MrDanZak) July 28, 2017
