We all now what happens to czars
they get deposed by marxists
Frump, wondering what to do with his antiwar Veep, without a trace of irony, given the number of fraudsters he has pardoned,
decides that Iran is no longer the enemy - fraud is.
Of course frump is well acquainted with fraud, first as a six-times bankrput "businessman", then as a risible media dork, now
as a fake president elected because most americans hate women and people with brown skins; in that order.
"...Donald Trump announced a fresh crackdown on “fraud” in Democratic states and tapped JD Vance to lead the charge. Officials swiftly announced a string of arrests in California.
In a Truth Social post on Friday, the US president announced that his vice-president was now “in charge of ‘fraud’ in the United States”, claiming the problem is “massive and pervasive” and that Vance’s new role as “fraud czar” will be “a major factor in how great the future of our country will be”.
Without citing evidence, Trump said that Vance would focus on “everywhere but primarily in those blue states where crooked Democrat politicians … have had a ‘free for all’ in the unprecedented theft of taxpayer money”.
He pointed to California, Illinois, Minnesota, Maine and New York, and alleged fraud was “so large that, if successful, we would literally be able to balance our American budget”, without providing evidence.
“Raids have already started in L.A.,” Trump said. Authorities arrested eight people for allegedly perpetrating over $50m in healthcare fraud, largely in southern California, federal officials announced on Thursday.
Most of the accused, which include healthcare professionals such as nurses and a psychologist, allegedly schemed to defraud Medicare by running “sham” hospice care facilities where they used people who were not terminally ill as beneficiaries, the US Department of Justice said in a statement.
It comes as the US remains engaged in a war on Iran that cost $12.7bn in its first six days. The Trump administration on Friday also put forward a budget proposal under which defense spending would surge to its highest level in decades, while other government programs would face steep cuts.
Allies of Trump are meanwhile increasingly alleging that blue states are complicit in fraud.
..
In response to the news, Gavin Newsom defended his state, saying California has taken action. The governor said that he banned new hospice licenses in 2021 and that the state revoked more than 280 licenses since 2024 and pursued more than 100 criminal cases.
“The Trump Administration – home to the biggest fraudsters on Earth – is trying to blame California for issues with THEIR federal programs,” Newsom said. “Glad to see the Feds finally taking seriously the fraud in the programs they themselves manage…only 15 months after Trump took office.”
In a news conference announcing the arrests, Dr Mehmet Oz, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services administrator, said his agency planned to review every hospice in California.
In response to Trump’s announcement, New York governor Kathy Hochul’s spokesperson, Jen Goodman, told the Guardian: “Well before the Trump administration took office, Governor Hochul was leading efforts to root out waste, fraud and abuse, including sweeping reforms that saved over $2 billion for taxpayers. As always, New York is glad to partner with the federal government to continue our work, but we won’t stand by as Donald Trump and JD Vance use ‘fraud’ as a disguise for their efforts to cut healthcare and rip critical programs away from New York’s most vulnerable.”
