The documentary-style segment follows Nick Shirley and David as they investigate widespread fraud in Minnesota, centering on nonemergency medical transportation (NEMT), daycare operations, and the way state funds are billed for services that may not be delivered. They present a pattern where transportation companies appear to underpin multiple fraud schemes across childcare, adult daycare, autism services, and interpreter services, with transportation acting as the “belly of the beast” that ties these lines of fraud together. Key findings and claims include: - The investigation asserts that Minnesota’s NEMT sector is dominated by Somali-owned companies. David notes about 20 NEMT companies in Minnesota, with more than 90% Somali-owned, many hosted in addresses that appear noncommercial or vacant (an apartment, a house, a convenience store, or a vacant building) with little or no signage or staff. - The group argues the average national vehicle count per NEMT company is 20. They estimate Minnesota could have approximately 800 Somali-owned NEMT companies, each with about 20 vehicles, and claim payments from the state are based on electronic submissions of trips and miles, with trips typically paid at about $50 per trip (round trips $100). They contend many trips are never performed, yet payments are made once the electronic form is submitted, with no verification of actual service delivery. - The symposium of fraud is described as consisting of daycares, adult daycares, autism services, and other welfare providers that rely on the transportation brokers to create a paper-trail justifying payments to the providers, even when services aren’t delivered. This paper trail allegedly enables continued state funding for many supposedly operating centers. - Safari Transportation (607 Cedar Avenue South, Minneapolis) and Dreamline Transportation (617 Cedar Avenue South) are presented as examples of fraudulent listings: Safari Transportation is alleged not to exist at the listed address; Dreamline Transportation is said to be housed in a liquor store at 617 Cedar Avenue South, with multiple addresses showing confusing or false registration. On-site checks reveal no functioning transportation company or vans, and staff acknowledge the addresses are misleading. The reporting team notes that the listed addresses often correspond to other, non-transport businesses (e.g., money-wiring shops or liquor stores), with no observable fleet and no evidence of active transportation services. - They visit other addresses tied to transportation, such as Epimonia Transport (at 305/308 area) and Crescent Transportation in Saint Louis Park; Epimonia is described as lacking vehicles and consistency in address listings, while Crescent Transportation is found to be an apartment complex rather than a storefront, casting doubt on the legitimacy of these entities. - The Hopkins Child Care Center is highlighted as an example of large state funding for a facility licensed for 118 children, with reported funding of around $2.25 million for a given year and millions across multiple years, yet the center is observed as shuttered or lacking visible child activity, with many vehicles reportedly idle and windows blacked out. Similar patterns are noted at other daycare centers such as Quality Learning Center and Proud Child Care Center in Eden Prairie, which also show high funding receipts (e.g., $1.9 million for Quality Learning Center in a given year; Proud Child Care Center receiving about $1.25–$1.26 million in recent years), but with no apparent foot traffic or detectable enrollment. - The investigation connects the fraud to political actors and public officials, alleging cover-ups or complicity, and raises questions about accountability for figures like Tim Walz. They assert that investigations and governmental actions have been insufficient or misdirected to address the alleged fraud. - In a broader fraud narrative, they claim millions of dollars were being funneled through TSA at Minneapolis–Saint Paul International Airport, with whistleblowers recounting large sums (often in the millions) moved by Somali-descent individuals, sometimes via routes through Atlanta to Dubai before wiring money to Somalia. A former TSA narcotics investigator describes routine cash movements at checkpoints, suggesting that declarations of large sums did not trigger meaningful enforcement, and implying the funds were linked to the daycare and welfare networks described earlier. Throughout, the speakers attempt to confront individuals at various sites, record responses, and juxtapose the alleged abundance of funding with the lack of visible services or vehicles. They emphasize that even when fraud is spotlighted, participants often respond with hostility or denial, while security is required to manage confrontations. They conclude with a call for accountability and reforms, asserting that the fraud spans the entire state and that transportation companies are central to the ability to sustain fraudulent payments.

California is repaying $1.6 billion previously charged to the federal government for health care services provided to illegal immigrants, and a larger program integrity issue is claimed to exist in the state’s health care system. The speaker instructs Governor Newsom to produce within three weeks a comprehensive program integrity action plan to address major fraud. Three examples of alleged embarrassing fraud in California are highlighted: 1) In-home supportive services (which California shares with Minnesota) include personal care such as bathing or grooming, household tasks, cleaning and cooking, shopping, and transportation. These are tasks that families could perform, but government funding is said to have generated significant cash for unethical people. California spending for these services increased from eight to twenty-eight billion dollars over the past decade, with a claim that federal taxpayers are paying 250% more for California, an affluent state, and that the program is still growing by double digits annually. 2) In 2024, spending for home health care in California purportedly rose by more than 21%, representing the largest growth rate for any major health category nationwide. The number of home health agencies in California reportedly almost doubled between 2019 and 2024. Los Angeles County alone is said to account for $1.4 billion, representing almost 9% of total fee-for-service home health spending for the entire country, despite having just 2% of national enrollment. The assertion is that this concentrates home health funds in L.A. County, limiting access for other Americans who could benefit from these services. 3) The 2022 California state auditor report is cited as showing that the number of hospice agents in Los Angeles County increased by 1,500% since 2010, a growth rate that allegedly far exceeds the 40% increase in the senior population over the same period. The speaker questions how a sevenfold increase in hospice could be defended, noting reports from seniors who claim they were duped by fraudsters and that California is not stopping these criminals. The speaker reiterates that Governor Newsom’s deadline for a comprehensive program integrity action plan is approaching and urges action to save American lives rather than enabling criminals.

The speaker claims there is $14 billion in fraud related to people wrongly enrolled in Medicaid in multiple states. They state that people living in one state may move to another, and both states collect Medicaid money from the federal government. The speaker adds that sometimes people are enrolled in both Medicaid and exchanges within the same state, contributing to the $14 billion figure.

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.

Official A states that in 2022, the office found that president Biden's DHS allowed some Afghans into the country before they were fully vetted, including one who had been liberated from prison by the Taliban. Official A notes that over 50 known or suspected terrorists had entered the United States as a result of Biden administration screening or lack thereof, and that last month the director of national intelligence said that 2,000 Afghans in America may have ties to terrorism. Official A asks whether a formal vetting process was in place, and asserts that the department did not have a formal process at the start of the OAW. Official A repeats the figure and corrects it to 36,000, calling it astounding. Official B replies that CARE, the Council on American-Islamic Relations, is the organization in question, stating that CARE was founded at a 1993 meeting and that they specifically state they are going to present themselves as a legitimate civil rights organization while furthering the mission of Hamas. Official A asks how much money CARE received from the federal government to shepherd Afghan parolees. Official B responds that CARE received $15,000,000 in California and more than $1,000,000 in Washington. Official A adds that when they check federal databases for CARE, they find nothing, and Official B explains that the money did not go directly from the federal government to CARE, but rather through an intermediary, and that this is how they’ve hidden the money. Official A states, “We need to find out where this money has gone. This is a scandal. This is corruption, and we've gotta figure out how taxpayer money has ended up in the hands of yet another organization terrorized.”

William Lajanes reports from Los Angeles on hospice fraud, describing it as costing taxpayers 200 million dollars a year, with the worst activity seen in LA. He cites ghost patients, sham companies, corrupt doctors, and hospitals billing for care never provided, including owners stealing Medicare numbers from seniors who don’t know they’re on hospice until they need real care and then can’t receive it because the hospice owns their Medicare number. He and others call it human trafficking of beneficiaries. A source labels hospice fraud in LA as “crazy,” noting hospice care has grown sevenfold in the last five years. They estimate about 3.5 billion dollars of fraud in LA County alone. They describe LA as ground zero for scammers. Sheila Clark states hundreds of LA hospices falsely bill the government for unnecessary care, often cycling patients from one provider to another. Another participant describes a “non ending benefit,” with patients allegedly receiving four thousand dollars a month indefinitely. Patients are said to be bought and sold like trading cards, and recruiters told to post at busy shopping centers or senior living addresses to knock on doors, offering walkers, wheelchairs, and promising recruiters earn 300 dollars for any senior aged 62 they sign up, sick or not. That patient data and Medicare numbers are then sold to providers. A speaker emphasizes that a Medicare MIB number is highly lucrative. When asked how much federal taxpayers are losing, the response is “Millions, billions.” The report asserts that Russian Armenian gangs and the mafia are leading many of these efforts, allegedly able to corrupt and work with doctors willing to lie. A doctor is cited who billed the government 120,000,000 dollars in a single year, claiming to oversee 1,900 patients. With almost 2,000 hospice agencies, LA County has more than 36 states combined, and 30 times more than Florida or New York. It is stated that 18 percent of the entire country’s home health care billing comes from Los Angeles County. A map shows a cluster of 287 hospice providers in a two-mile radius, including locations in strip malls, unmarked buildings, a wrecking yard, and a vacant lot. The problem is described as once a beneficiary’s number is assigned to a hospice, that patient cannot get care elsewhere, including in a hospital. There is a call to listen to people who say they’ve been scammed. Context is provided that Governor Newsom filed a civil rights complaint against Doctor Oz for unfairly targeting the Armenian community; auditors and prosecutors say Armenian organized crime is involved with Medicare fraud. California auditors four years ago warned that lax state controls created the mess, prompting a moratorium on new hospices and the revocation of about 280 licenses since then. Ayesha?

There's significant fraud in USAID, with radical groups receiving funds they don't deserve. A staggering amount, like a hundred million, is being misallocated. It's crucial to investigate the kickbacks associated with this spending. Who would invest such sums in questionable projects? It's likely that those who received the funds are not returning any to the government, indicating a high level of corruption. The key issue is understanding the extent of these kickbacks.

The transcript asserts that the government can provide funding to a so called nonprofit with very few controls, and that there is no auditing subsequently of that nonprofit. It emphasizes that with the 1,900,000,000.0 to Stacey Abrams, those involved “give themselves extremely lavish, like, salaries, expense everything” and that the nonprofit is used to “buy jets and homes and all sorts of things” and to “live like kings and queens” within the tax paradigm. The speaker reiterates that this pattern is not isolated to a single instance but is happening at scale. It is described as not being limited to one or two cases but as something being seen “everywhere.” Key points highlighted include: - Government funding to nonprofits occurs with very few controls. - There is an absence of auditing of the recipient nonprofit after the funding is provided. - A substantial amount, specifically 1,900,000,000.0, is directed to a high-profile figure identified as Stacey Abrams. - The recipients are portrayed as granting themselves lavish salaries, paying for expenses, and purchasing luxury assets such as jets and homes. - The overall implication is that funds are used to “buy jets and homes and all sorts of things,” leading to a lifestyle described as living “like kings and queens” within the tax framework. - The speaker stresses that this phenomenon is not isolated but is happening at scale, with examples seen “everywhere.” The speaker’s framing centers on alleged governance and accountability failures in nonprofit funding, pointing to large sums of money directed to an individual and the perceived use of nonprofit resources for personal luxury. The emphasis is on the scale of the practice and the lack of oversight, suggesting systemic repetition rather than isolated incidents.

The speaker describes a pattern of fraud concentrated in clusters rather than in isolated, large-scale operations. The fraud appears to occur within family groups or tightly connected networks, spreading across multiple small sites rather than a single, massive operation. These clusters involve using single apartments, single condos, or potentially a single-family home outside of Boston, effectively creating numerous small daycare facilities. The speaker notes that the capacity of these clusters is not as high as it might be in other regions (e.g., Minnesota). As a result, fraud operates at a large number of smaller sites rather than a few large ones. The implication is that there may be more individual perpetrators overall, but each site commits fraud on a smaller scale. This distributed approach contrasts with a hypothetical scenario in which one building or site would generate a multi-million-dollar fraud; instead, the speaker expects many buildings each contributing smaller amounts, culminating in a broader spread of fraudulent activity. A key factor driving this pattern is the very low barrier to entry for opening a daycare, which facilitates a large number of potential operators and, consequently, a higher overall opportunity for fraud. The speaker emphasizes that this low barrier makes it easier for fraudulent actors to multiply across numerous small locations, contributing to a wide but shallow trafficking of schemes. The speaker explains the financial impact and mechanism of the fraud: the state is subsidizing payments for these kids, but the fraud involves both the daycare and the parents allegedly claiming that children attend the daycare when they do not. In reality, the parents certify attendance, while the daycare providers and the parents are allegedly splitting the subsidized funds. As a result, taxpayers bear the burden of subsidizing services that are not actually being provided to the claimed attendees. In summary, the described fraud occurs in clustered groups, leveraging many small daycare operations (often housed in single residences) with a very low entry barrier, leading to widespread but not individually vast fraud. The purported scheme involves falsified attendance to obtain state subsidies, with the daycare operators and some parents allegedly sharing the ill-gotten funds.

The speaker asserts that last year California spent $9.6 billion on health care for illegal immigrants. They claim the media has misled people by saying that no federal dollars go to undocumented immigrants, stating that this is fundamentally wrong. The speaker points to Governor Newsom, who allegedly announced that California is the first state in the nation to provide health care to illegal immigrants. They also claim that San Francisco operates the only universal health care plan in America for all undocumented residents, expressing pride in that status. According to the speaker, a key mechanism behind federal funding for care provided to undocumented individuals is the expansion of medical access through emergency departments. They contend that emergency departments are backfilled and funded at a rate of one dollar from the federal government. The implication is that any time an illegal immigrant uses the emergency room, federal dollars are brought in to cover or support that care, effectively meaning there are federal dollars being spent on illegal immigrants. The speaker asserts that the statement that there are no federal dollars going to illegal immigrants is a lie, arguing that California is facilitating this funding. They also claim that the media is lying about this issue as well. Throughout the statement, the overarching themes are the existence of substantial state spending on undocumented health care, the involvement of federal funding through emergency department backfill, and the portrayal of these facts as being misrepresented by the media. In summary, the speaker emphasizes four main points: (1) California’s reported $9.6 billion expenditure on health care for undocumented immigrants, (2) Governor Newsom’s assertion that California is leading the nation in providing health care to illegal immigrants, (3) San Francisco’s universal health care plan for all undocumented residents, and (4) the mechanism by which emergency department funding from the federal government allegedly backfills care for undocumented individuals, leading to federal dollars being spent on them. The speaker concludes by asserting that the claim of no federal dollars supporting illegal immigrants is false and accuses the media of lying.

The Department of Justice announced the largest coordinated health care fraud takedown in its history, charging 324 defendants for alleged participation in health care fraud schemes involving approximately $14,660,000,000 in false claims submitted to Medicare, Medicaid, and other health care programs. Key points emphasized: - First, these health care fraud schemes affect every hardworking American family. The announcement states that criminals didn’t just steal money from others; they stole from taxpayers who fund these programs. Every fraudulent claim, fake billing, and kickback scheme represents money taken from American taxpayers, driving up the national deficit and threatening the long-term viability of health care for seniors, disabled Americans, and vulnerable citizens. The enforcement action involves seizure of cash as well as luxury vehicles and properties, returning real money to taxpayers and to government health care programs. - Second, there is a disturbing trend of transnational criminal organizations engaging in increasingly sophisticated schemes. The takedown identifies and charges defendants operating from Russia, Eastern Europe, Pakistan, and other foreign countries, who have infiltrated the U.S. health care system to steal taxpayer dollars. An example described involves a sophisticated operation run from Russia and Eastern Europe that bought dozens of medical supply companies in the United States and submitted more than $10,000,000,000 in fraudulent health care claims to Medicare. This operation used the stolen identities of more than 1,000,000 Americans spanning all 50 states. Federal agents intercepted and arrested key members of that organization at U.S. airports and the U.S.–Mexico border, cutting off their escape routes. The days of transnational criminal organizations using the American health care programs as their personal piggy bank are over. - Third, 74 defendants, including medical professionals, were charged, highlighting those who fueled America’s deadly opioid crisis for personal profit. Pill mill operators who prescribed unnecessary opioids were charged, and networks of corrupt pharmacies that distributed drugs to addicts and dealers were dismantled, feeding the addiction crisis that has devastated communities. This is described as a staggering breach of trust, and the Department’s Criminal Division will prosecute these criminals aggressively, equating them with drug dealers. - Fourth, some defendants targeted vulnerable citizens in nursing homes, individuals with disabilities, and those battling serious illnesses. Prosecutors charged seven defendants, including five medical professionals, in connection with approximately $1,000,000,000 in fraudulent claims to Medicare and other health care benefit programs for performing medically unnecessary skin grass on dying patients as they sought to spend their final days with dignity and peace. This conduct is described as callous and disturbing, reflecting a breach of trust between patients, families, and providers. The overall message: today’s enforcement action represents the largest health care fraud takedown in American history, signaling the beginning of a new era of aggressive prosecution and data-driven prevention.

We may be witnessing one of the biggest Medicaid fraud schemes in U.S. history. New York Governor Kathy Hochul recently awarded a $45 billion medical care contract to Public Partnerships LLC (PPL). 50% of this contract is funded by the federal government. This contract will destroy nearly 700 businesses and jeopardize the home care Medicaid program. The eleven ninety nine SEIU union announced that PPL would be acquiring the contract before public bidding even started, providing clear evidence that PPL's acquisition of this government contract was rigged. The union knew because they made a deal with PPL to unionize all workers, resulting in the union taking in an additional $1 billion per year. Republicans and Democrats have called for investigation into this apparent fraud scheme. I am calling upon the Medicaid inspector general to conduct an independent investigation. Kathy Hochul, eleven ninety nine SEIU, and PPL are hoping to hold out until March 28 when the deal goes into effect. This fraud scheme must be investigated right now.

Speaker 0 argues that Elon’s estimate of 20% of federal spending being part of a fraud camp could be higher, and when including state and local spending, the accounting suggests a sizable percentage of overall GDP is effectively theft through government agencies or checks. He predicts a “great uncovering” in 2026, with trillions of dollars of this behavior across the economy, and notes that on the other side, nothing will happen because the cost will be so significant it will feel like staring into the abyss. Speaker 1 asks how to differentiate between legal theft and illegal theft, noting that Somali daycares’ actions were outright fraud and illegal, while Stacey Abrams’s NGO receiving $2,000,000,000 late in the Biden administration is technically legal but clearly a different kind of theft and fraud. Speaker 0 responds with a test: “Would you throw up in your mouth when you heard the news? That’s the test. If you don’t pass the common sense vomit in the mouth test, it doesn’t matter whether it’s legal or illegal. It’s up. And you’ll realize that pretty quickly.”

Taxpayer money is sent to government organizations, then to NGOs. If it's a government-funded NGO, it's effectively just the government. A fraud loophole exists because the government can send money to an NGO that is no longer governed by U.S. laws. The money is sent overseas to one NGO, then through others. The speaker is highly confident that some of that money returns to the U.S. and enriches certain people. There are strangely wealthy members of Congress, and it's unclear how they accumulated millions while earning comparatively little. The speaker aims to investigate this and prevent it from continuing.

Transnational fraud rings, terrorist organizations, and even nation-states are being funded with taxpayer dollars. During the pandemic, one trillion dollars was stolen, with 70% going overseas. For example, one state had more unemployment claims than adults. Romanian criminals used stolen funds for fentanyl and to undermine our democracy. While most public servants are honest, some exploit the system. In one recent case, individuals stole $50 million from Medicaid in under four months. These aren't individual thefts, but organized criminal groups, both domestic and transnational, that we need data and technology to stop.

The speaker asserts that fraud has been legalized and concealed through unethical behavior enabled by unethical legislation, effectively allowing the fraud to go unseen, untracked, and without accountability. The speaker highlights Nexus Family Healing, a nonprofit located in Plymouth, Minnesota, as an example. According to the speaker, Nexus Family Healing is a national nonprofit with an executive director earning well over $500,000 annually, who is awarded a $1,000,000 grant contract through Hennepin County. The speaker then alleges that this $1,000,000 grant morphs into a three-year $7,000,000 ongoing contract, and claims that nobody knows how or why this transformation occurs. The speaker notes that when Hennepin County workers approached Julie Blaha in the state auditor’s office with concerns, they were met with “complete radio silence.” The speaker contends that Julie Blaha refuses to take action. The claim is made that the state auditor’s office is currently opaque, with no visible duties, no responsibility, and no accountability arising from that office. The speaker adds that the office receives $8,000,000 in biannual funding, yet allegedly does nothing beyond purported TikTok dances. The overarching claim is that there needs to be someone in the state auditor’s office who actually takes responsibility for how taxpayer dollars are managed and accounted for. The speaker uses these points to argue that the current system enables undisclosed or unaddressed fraud through a combination of perceived legislative loopholes and a lack of oversight or action from the state auditor’s office. The narrative centers on alleged improper contracting and funding flows involving Nexus Family Healing, and the perceived non-responsiveness of Julie Blaha and the state auditor’s office in the face of county concerns about these matters.

Modernizing American medicine will address waste, fraud, and abuse. Last year, 230,000 Americans on Obamacare plans were unaware of their enrollment; brokers profited by enrolling them without their knowledge. California has taken millions of dollars from the federal government to provide free health insurance for illegal immigrants. The government intends to recoup this money. Medicaid patients are also being enrolled in multiple states, resulting in the federal government paying multiple states for the same individual without ensuring they receive adequate healthcare.

It's the morning of March 15, and the report centers on a tip about a man leaving the country with a carry-on bag packed with a million dollars in cash. Sources say he just cleared security with that bag, and that such cloak-and-dagger scenarios now happen almost weekly at MSP International. The money is usually headed to the Middle East, Dubai, and beyond, with sources claiming that last year more than $100,000,000 in cash left MSP in carry-on luggage. The reporters say their main interest is where the money is going. The national go-to expert cited is Glenn Kearns, a former Seattle police detective who spent fifteen years on the FBI’s Joint Terrorism Task Force before retirement. Kearns is described as having tracked millions of dollars in cash leaving on flights from Seattle, money that came from hawalas—informal networks used to courier money to countries with little or no official banking system. Some immigrant communities rely on hawalas to send funds to relatives back home. Kearns discovered that some of the money was being funneled to a hawala in a region of Somalia controlled by the Al Shabaab terrorist group. The narrative then shifts to a claim that the money transfers are connected to welfare fraud, specifically day care-related fraud. The reporters note that to understand the link between day care fraud and the surge in carry-on cash, one must look at the history of the crime in Minnesota. Five years earlier, Fox 9 investigators reportedly first reported that day care fraud was rising in Minnesota, exposing how some businesses were gaming the system to steal millions in government subsidies meant to help low-income families with childcare expenses. The transcript explains the day care fraud scheme: centers sign up low-income families that qualify for child care assistance funding. Surveillance videos from a case prosecuted by Hennepin County show parents checking their kids into a center only to leave with them a few minutes later, or sometimes with no children at all. In any case, the center would bill the state for a full day of childcare. The report highlights this as a significant mechanism by which funds were diverted, tying it to larger issues of cash being moved internationally via hawalas and used to support illicit networks.

The shocking part of investigating government-funded NGOs is that small decisions lead to massive, multi-billion dollar outcomes. I saw one instance of $1.9 billion being sent to an NGO that was formed a year prior and had no prior activity. Government-funded NGOs are essentially a loophole, allowing actions that would be illegal for the government directly but become permissible through nonprofits. These nonprofits are then used for personal enrichment, with individuals cashing out and paying themselves exorbitant sums. It's a giant scam where people can establish an NGO for a relatively small investment and then lobby politicians to funnel vast sums of money into it. There might be some good that comes from them, maybe 5 or 10%, but the rest is not.

My team at the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) uncovered $100 billion in wasted Medicare and Medicaid funds. Working with two senior CMS veterans, we had read-only access to their payment and contracting systems. Our mission was to find ways to use resources more effectively, but we discovered massive waste and potential fraud. CMS processes over a billion Medicare claims annually and manages billions in Medicaid funds. They recently suspended 850 agents for suspected fraud. The Department of Justice has also been prosecuting healthcare fraud cases, with billions of dollars in losses. This discovery highlights a massive scandal, potentially the biggest in US history, and is prompting calls for similar transparency initiatives in other countries. We need major reform, absolute transparency over tax spending, and human oversight to ensure this doesn't happen again.

California provides state Medicaid to all illegal migrants and has allegedly created a system to siphon Medicaid dollars. Governor Newsom initially estimated free healthcare for illegal immigrants would cost $6 billion, but it's now $10 billion. This incentivizes illegal immigration. The governor claimed the federal government would reimburse the cost, but it's hitting the general fund, with one in four Medi-Cal dollars going to illegal immigrants. Newsom admitted Medi-Cal is broke and can't pay healthcare providers. Providing free healthcare to illegal immigrants risks health insurance for the neediest. The Medi-Cal system should be audited. It is illegal for federal Medicaid dollars to cover illegal migrants.

In Los Angeles, there are 42 hospices within a four-block radius, with Cyrillic and Armenian/Russian writing on buildings and little visible patient care activity. A major case involved $16,000,000 stolen, with the main organizer going to jail for two years. The area had an apparently empty hospice center and claimed services for people at home that were not actually provided. The speaker asserts roughly $3.5 billion in fraud is taking place in Los Angeles hospice and home care, run largely by the Russian Armenian mafia. The narration notes the presence of language and dialect behind the speaker as indicative of this organized crime. The operation allegedly recruited hundreds of doctors to write false prescriptions and paid or tricked 100,000 patients into giving them their beneficiary numbers to perpetuate the fraud. Criminals allegedly run the organization and quickly evade when law enforcement prosecutes them. California has not given much attention to these problems, but that is changing, according to the speaker. The US attorney and FBI are now focused on the issue in a state with about $30,000,000,000 worth of home and community-based services, most of which, the speaker claims, might be fraudulent. The statement concludes that the President is not going to tolerate this anymore.

It's morning on March 15, and investigators are chasing a tip about a man leaving the country with a carry-on bag packed with a million dollars in cash. The claim is that he just cleared security with the cash, and that these cloak-and-dagger transfers happen almost weekly at MSP International. The money is reported to be headed to the Middle East, Dubai, and beyond, with sources saying last year more than $100,000,000 in cash left MSP in carry-on luggage. The reporters highlight Glenn Kearns as the national go-to expert on money transfers behind these mysterious movements. Kearns is a former Seattle police detective who spent fifteen years on the FBI's Joint Terrorism Task Force. He tracked millions of dollars in cash leaving flights from Seattle and found that the money came from hawalas—informal money-transfer networks used to send funds to countries with limited or no official banking systems. Some immigrant communities rely on hawalas to send money to relatives back home. Kearns discovered that some of the money was funneled to a hawala network in a region of Somalia controlled by the Al Shabaab terrorist group. The investigation raises a question: how could such large sums be transferred back home? The reporting notes that sources say the phenomenon is connected to welfare fraud and day care, suggesting a broader pattern behind the carry-on cash. To understand the link between day care fraud and the surge in carry-on cash, the reporters trace the crime's history in Minnesota. Five years earlier, Fox 9 investigators first reported that day care fraud was rising in the state. They exposed how some businesses exploited the system to steal millions in government subsidies intended to help low-income families with childcare expenses. The daycare fraud scheme works by centers signing up low-income families that qualify for childcare assistance funding. Surveillance videos from a case prosecuted by Hennepin County show parents checking their kids into a center and then leaving moments later, or sometimes with no children at all. Regardless, the center would bill the state for a full day of childcare. In summary, the report ties large cash transfers at MSP to hawalas and potential ties to terrorism financing, while framing a separate but connected pattern of crime: daycare centers billing for subsidized childcare in ways that enable significant fraud, thereby facilitating the movement and laundering of funds.
