An investigation into a school in Ohio revealed a concerning money trail leading to Turkey, involving illegal use of taxpayer funds. Auditors found that nearly $13,000 was spent on immigration and legal fees for 19 Turkish immigrants, some of whom were not employed by the schools. The U.S. government is investigating H-1B visas issued to Horizon Schools, which raised alarms among local teachers' unions. They argue that taxpayer dollars should not fund foreign nationals when qualified Ohio teachers are available. Last year, Horizon Schools received over $27 million in taxpayer money, prompting further calls to keep funds within the state.

The Treasury pays out $5 trillion per year, and previously, payments lacked budget codes, obscuring their purpose. A $4 billion COVID fund in the Department of Education had no receipt requirements, leading to funds being used to rent Caesars Palace and stadiums for parties. When a receipt upload requirement was implemented, fund drawdowns ceased, even though the receipts were not verified. Fraud often starts small and hidden, but escalates over time if unchecked, eventually becoming brazen, such as renting out stadiums.

We've stopped the $8,000,000 in taxpayer subsidies for Politico subscriptions. The team is working to cancel the payments immediately. Large organizations inevitably miss things. Claims of widespread waste and abuse haven't been substantiated with evidence. We haven't seen proof of the alleged misuse of funds.

A $4 billion COVID fund in the Department of Education had no receipt requirements, allowing people to draw down money freely. Upon investigation, it was found that the funds were used to rent Caesar's Palace and stadiums for parties. The Department of Education implemented a simple change requiring recipients to upload a receipt before drawing down money. Although the receipts were not checked and could be fake, requests for money stopped entirely. Initially, fraud starts small and is concealed, but if left unchecked, it grows more brazen over time, eventually escalating to renting out stadiums.

Transnational fraud rings, terrorist organizations, and even nation-states like North Korea are being funded with our tax dollars. During the pandemic, a trillion dollars was stolen, with 70% going overseas. For example, one state had more unemployment claims than adults, and Romanian thieves used stolen funds for fentanyl and to undermine our democracy. While most public servants are honest, insider threats exist. Data and technology are crucial to identify them. Recently, in a Western state, criminals stole $50 million from Medicaid in under four months. These aren't individual acts; they're organized criminal groups, both domestic and transnational. Controls must be in place.

A Sacramento charter school board allegedly committed $180,000,000 in taxpayer fraud by creating a fake adult school purportedly teaching English to Afghan and Ukrainian immigrants. The board members resigned after an audit revealed the scheme, which involved creating fake students and classrooms to funnel money into private pockets. Funds were allegedly used for six-figure jobs for friends and family and luxury travel. Critics who questioned the spending were labeled racist, anti-refugee, or anti-education. The speaker claims this is a pattern in California, where public education is used as a front for scams involving activist bureaucrats, fake nonprofits, and made-up school boards. The speaker asserts that the system is a "racket" where politicians' relatives get six-figure jobs while infrastructure crumbles and living expenses explode.

A documentary-style investigation in Minnesota accuses widespread government-funded fraud across childcare, elder care, and health care services, alleging that hundreds of millions (potentially billions) of taxpayer dollars were funneled to fraudulent businesses, many run by Somali-owned entities, with insufficient or no evidence of actual children or patients being served. Key figures and setup - David: An investigator whose office is in Minneapolis, claiming firsthand exposure to fraud. He frames the problem as deeply entrenched, involving billions of dollars and potentially ties to terrorist groups abroad. - Nick Shirley: The presenter and filmmaker, documenting the investigation, confronting daycare centers, health care providers, and government officials. Main fraud allegations and examples - Childcare and early learning centers: - Multiple Minneapolis daycares listed at the same addresses, licensed for large capacities (e.g., 120 children) but with no children present in long-running site visits. - Examples include Mako Childcare and Mini Childcare Center: combined licensing for 120 children, but vans never moving and no children observed over repeated visits; fiscal year payments ranged from about 714,000 to over 1.6 million dollars for the two centers in various years. - ABC Learning Center and other nearby facilities: windows blocked out, doors locked, no children observed despite licensing for dozens or hundreds of children; payments in the hundreds of thousands to millions per year. - Sweet Angel Childcare and others: similar patterns—license capacity reported, payments received, but no children seen; in one case, ongoing operation with no obvious play area or evidence of childcare. - The video notes cases where two daycares share addresses or switch names (e.g., Creative Minds Daycare reopens as Super Kids Daycare Center) yet continue to receive state funding, suggesting “fraudulent” billing. - Some locations claimed to be open long hours and to serve many children, yet on-site visits found no children, locked doors, or hostile responses when questioned. In one instance, a staffer refused to discuss the operation or provide paperwork. - Specific sums cited include ownership of facilities with payments like 1.26 million, 987 thousand, 714 thousand, 1.6 million, 1.3 million, 1.0–1.6 million in various fiscal years, totaling near several millions per site and aggregating toward millions across multiple centers. - Home health care and other services: - A building housing 14 Somali-owned home health care companies under many different names, all operating from the same location, raising concerns about service provision and billing. - A broader claim that in Minnesota, 14–22 Somali health care businesses at the same address are part of the same ecosystem; government money (state and federal CCAP funding) is disbursed to these entities, with a perception that services may not be rendered as billed. - A separate building contains numerous health care providers; the interviewee asserts that 50–60 million dollars per year could be fraudulently routed through this single building. - Overall scale and claims: - David asserts the fraud is “far worse than anybody can imagine” with estimates initially as high as 7 to 10 billion, later revised publicly to around 8 billion; in total, a major portion of the state budget is implicated. - A central claim is that funds from CCAP (a blend of federal and state money, taxpayer money) are written as checks to providers who may not deliver corresponding services; the state’s checks are allegedly not effectively cross-checked for actual service provision. - Political and procedural dimensions: - The investigation contends that Minnesota governor Tim Walz is responsible for allowing or failing to curb fraud, describing the state as “ground zero” for the issue and criticizing political and procedural inaction. - The documentary frames fraud as nonpartisan, noting Medicaid fraud occurs across parties and administrations nationwide, but then presents a partisan friction as they confront lawmakers at a state Capitol hearing. - At the Capitol hearing, Republicans and Democrats discuss fraud, with some speakers asserting the problem is nonpartisan and rooted in systemic issues across administrations, while others push to hold specific leaders accountable and emphasize the need for transparency and enforcement. Confrontations and outcomes - The team encounters resistance and hostility at several sites, including doors locked, hostile staff, and in one instance, a confrontation resulting in police involvement at a building housing healthcare providers. - The investigators claim to have faced intimidation and even threats; they describe instances of violence toward them for asking questions about child and elder care fraud. - The film documents a tense, complex landscape of allegations, aiming to connect misallocated funds to non-delivered services, with ongoing investigations, raids, and political debate as the state capital becomes a focal point for accountability discussions.

48% of the student population is struggling. 92% of blacks don't know how to do math, and 83% can't read. High-level businessmen, both white and from lower economic levels, use the same verbiage when discussing these issues. Politicians are scared because people are waking up. Chicago Public Schools has a $90 billion budget and is requesting an additional $50 billion, including housing stipends for teachers. Amendment 1, passed by Pritzker and the Democrats, is described as the most overreaching union bill in the country. It allows public unions, like teachers, to strike on anything, potentially leading to backroom deals that never reach the public.

Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD) received $77 million in arts funding from Proposition 28, intended to hire new arts teachers. However, parents and former superintendent Austin Buettner allege the funds were misused. They claim few, if any, new teachers were hired, contradicting the district's report of 100 new arts teachers (a 2% increase). The district allegedly used the money to cover existing staff salaries and increase senior staff pay, while student enrollment decreased. This led to a lawsuit alleging fraud and violation of the law, claiming hundreds of thousands of students were harmed by the lack of new arts teachers and programs. The plaintiffs argue the law explicitly stated the funds were for hiring new teachers, not supplementing existing staff.

A $4 billion COVID fund in the Department of Education had no receipt requirements, allowing people to draw money freely. Upon investigation, it was found that the money was used to rent Caesar's Palace and stadiums for parties. The only change made was requiring recipients to upload a receipt before drawing funds. After this change, nobody requested money anymore. Although the receipts were not checked and could be fake, the mere request for documentation stopped the requests. Initially, fraud starts small and is hidden, but if unchecked, it grows more brazen each year until they are renting out stadiums.

Today, we're investigating where government funds for migrant kids are going. Nonprofits receive billions, with CEOs like Chip Fulghum making $600,000. Endeavors spent $500,000 on music, pet, and plant therapy for kids. Another nonprofit, Southwest Key Programs, led by Dr. Anselmo Villareal, received over a million. Despite issues like sexual abuse charges and fund misuse investigations, they still received $800 million in contracts from the Biden administration.

The speaker reports that $4.4 billion in unused COVID funds were identified, with $1.4 billion already returned to the U.S. Treasury. The Department of Labor exposed unemployment insurance fraud since 2020, with over $400 million in payments already disbursed fraudulently. Specifically, almost 25,000 people over 115 years old collected $59 million. 28,000 people between one and five years old received $254 million in fraudulent payments. $69 million went to 10,000 people not yet born, including one case where $41,000 was sent to someone who will be born 129 years in the future. The speaker says they are honored to return these dollars to the U.S. Treasury.

When Roberts was hired back in 2023, he wasn't just handed a superintendent job, he was given one of the biggest contracts in Iowa education. A $270,000 base salary padded with perks like a $38,000 annuity and a car allowance pushing his package over $300,000 a year. But what's even more interesting is his public bio claims he holds a doctorate in urban educational leadership from Trident University, but at this moment, I can't find any independent verification that the degree was confirmed, so this is yet another serious red flag. And the person who oversaw that decision, are you ready for this? Jackie Norris, who just so happens to be Michelle Obama's former chief of staff. This isn't just a hiring mistake. It shows how political favoritism and negligence can put entire communities at risk while taxpayers foot the bill.

Transnational fraud rings, terrorist organizations, and even nation-states are being funded by taxpayer dollars. During the pandemic, one trillion dollars was stolen, with 70% going overseas. For example, in one Western state, unemployment insurance applications exceeded the number of adults. Romanian criminals used stolen funds to facilitate fraud schemes involving fentanyl and attempts to undermine our democracy. While 99% of public sector employees are honest, some exploit the system. Data and technology are crucial to identifying these individuals. Recent examples include a breach of a Medicaid system in a Western state, resulting in $50 million stolen in under four months. These aren't individual thieves, but organized criminal groups, both domestic and transnational.

The Third Precinct has been compromised. USAID used taxpayer money for BLM ($27 million), Soros (at least $260 million), and the WEF ($68 million). Taxpayers allegedly paid for these entities to burn down cities, destroy America, launder money to Democrats, and subsidize the WEF. USAID also funded Middle East Sesame Street ($20 million) and Ukraine ($1 billion). It is claimed that the prosecutor got fired because the money was not received. These actions are described as despicable, appalling, dangerous, and Democrat propaganda via fake news. It is considered an extremely dangerous use of taxpayer funds and a threat to democracy. This is just the tip of the iceberg.

Texas spent $388 million on a four-year contract for the STAR standardized test. The speaker believes this test does not accurately assess students' levels. The speaker contrasts this expense with the fact that teachers still fund a large majority of their classrooms and can only write off $200 on their taxes.

Again are caught up in a $5,000,000,000 fraud scheme that was siphoning taxpayer dollars. The scheme was uncovered by house Republicans. The accusations which have sparked outrage center on the discovery of more than 4,000 fake phantom jobs allegedly used to siphon taxpayer dollars into nonexistent programs, questionable gender surgeries for prisoners, and dubious arts and culture grants. House GOP investigators claim to have identified the thousands of fake job positions created to justify budget allocations that never materialized into actual employment. Critics argue this was a deliberate tactic to funnel public money back to Democrats, bypassing accountability and oversight. This as multiple claims come in over fiscal mismanagement under Democrat control led by governor Gretchen Whitmer with the Michigan state budget ballooning to more than $82,000,000,000.

Here's why they didn't want us looking at the Department of Education. According to USED.gov, $4.6 million was contracted to coordinate Zoom and in-person meetings. Another $3 million went to writing a report to show that prior reports weren't used by schools. And $1.4 million was spent to physically observe mailing and clerical operations. We all want children educated, but these allocations don't seem right. It looks like theft from the American taxpayer.

The latest financial audit of the Pentagon highlights persistent accounting and asset-tracking problems for the Department of Defense. Despite controlling nearly $4,650,000,000,000 in assets, the department once again could not fully account for where its money, equipment, and resources go. Auditors issued a disclaimer of opinion, meaning the financial records were so incomplete that they couldn't even judge their accuracy. This marks the eighth consecutive year in which the department has failed to achieve a clean audit result. The audit identified 26 major weaknesses, including missing inventory tracking and outdated accounting systems. As a result, billions worth of equipment, weapons, and military supplies remain difficult to trace across U.S. bases worldwide. These gaps indicate that substantial portions of the department’s physical and financial assets cannot be confidently accounted for within the current record-keeping and oversight frameworks. Officials stressed that progress is being made, noting that several smaller defense agencies have passed their audits. However, the department as a whole has never received a clean result since audits began in 2018, underscoring a persistent, systemic challenge rather than isolated incidents. While some sub-agencies have achieved compliance, the overarching department still relies on processes and controls that do not meet the standards required for a complete and verifiable financial statement. Critics point to the broader context, arguing that the United States continues to approve record defense budgets while failing basic transparency tests. The continued lack of a consolidated, auditable financial picture for such a large and critical sector raises questions about how funds, equipment, and resources are allocated, tracked, and reported at the national level. In response, Pentagon leaders have stated a goal of finally passing a clean audit by 2028, signaling an intent to address the identified weaknesses and achieve full financial accountability within the stated timeframe. The tension between ongoing budgetary approvals and progress toward comprehensive audit compliance remains a central theme of the discussion surrounding the department’s financial management.

President Biden is facing backlash from Republicans and former Democrat Senator Kyrsten Sinema over allegations of stealing $105 million from Arizona. Sinema had previously held up Biden's inflation bills, concerned about excessive spending and its impact on inflation. In exchange for her support, she secured $100 million to strengthen the border in Arizona. However, Senate leader Chuck Schumer and House leader Hakeem Jeffries redirected the funds to New York, allegedly to support illegal immigrants residing in posh hotels with meals, cell phones, and other amenities. While conspiracy theories suggest this is a strategy to gain Democratic voters, the documented fact remains that Biden approved the diversion of funds from the border crisis to improve conditions for illegal immigrants in New York.

In April 2024, the Biden-Harris administration, through the EPA, allocated $7 billion to the United Climate Fund, part of a larger $20 billion Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund hidden within the Inflation Reduction Act. This money was funneled to Power Forward Communities, connected to Stacey Abrams, lacking transparency and accountability. An EPA official revealed this as an "insurance policy" against Trump winning the election, indicating a rushed cash dump. The $20 billion was stashed at Citibank but is now being reclaimed by the government. This isn't incompetence; it's calculated theft.
