The Budget Is 90% Fraud by Foreign Pirates: A Continuing Series

Eric Daugherty
@EricLDaugh

Aug 3

🚨 HOLY SMOKES. Jaw-dropping fraud report just found that 9.2 million people -- including ILLEGAL ALIENS -- do NOT meet the federal requirements to qualify for the Obamacare Medicaid expansion program...that's nearly HALF of those enrolled

50% FRAUD 🤯

The problems are the worst in CA and NY. IMAGINE THAT.

"The study says New York and California have some of the biggest problems, finding up to 62% of people enrolled in California are not eligible. And the states might not even be incentivized to fix the issue."

"This study says some of those people actually make too much money to qualify for this Medicaid expansion program and others are getting these benefits, even though they're here in the country illegally!"

The entire system has to be gutted! Purge the rolls!


Eric Daugherty
@EricLDaugh

4h

🚨 WOW! JD Vance just confirmed it with Stephen Miller at his side: "We have been able to identify $230 BILLION DOLLARS of fraud just since the fraud task force was set up!"

"And that's frankly by conservatively estimating it!" 🤯

"We've been able to stop $56 BILLION in fraudulent payments that would have otherwise gone to fraudsters rather than to the people who need them."

Plus: They're banning H-1B fraudsters:

Partially related: As Qatar, the Muslim Brotherhood, and CAIR buy elections in the US, AOC announces that American Jews have no right to participate in Democrat primaries.

This money creates an ecosystem of patronage.

It funds lifestyles.

Those lifestyles then fund supporting systems.

Those supporting systems fund political parties and political action groups both formal and informal (like smaller media outlets).

Combine this with USAID, and you've got the equivalent of about 13 Hollywoods (roughly $8 billion a year in box office receipts) suddenly wiped off the map of American politics.

53 We're ripping off the taxpayer left and right, but look at this mom over here who has been taking an extra $24 a month for 8 months. SHE MUST PAY IT BACK IMMEDIATELY PLUS PENALTIES !

The amount of fraud from Medicaid pales in comparison to the amount of grift by the current US president and his family.

everyone should be letting our local reps know that it is time for America to catch up to other countries and implement universal healthcare. No one should have to go into debt and be forced to file bankruptcy over medical debt

WTF even if Medicaid recipient fraud? Someone's doctor said they need health care and they got health care? Oh, the horror! So, let's make people who are unwell jump through hoops instead. How is that any better?

ANYTHING to distract from the Epstein files.

I'd rather pay an extra 20$ in tax a month for everyone to universally get health care then 300$ amonth for private health care that forces me to pay 6,000$ first before they even help

That was two months ago, and I've gone from one call a day to suddenly 5-6 calls a day in the past week. Maybe certain populations are panicking that H1B visas are about to be cut off?

A Los Angeles homeless nonprofit CEO earned more than $1.6 million in salary, bonuses and vacation payouts — despite living thousands of miles away in Hawaii.

Carol Adelkoff, from 1736 Family Crisis Center, was the highest paid homeless executive in Los Angeles after earning the whopping figure over the last two years.

She collected $907,923 in 2023 and another $742,181 in 2024, compensation that dwarfed the pay of leaders running much larger homeless service organizations across LA County, the LA Times reports.

Stop giving money to the states, and they won't be able to maladminister it.

Don't replace block grants with Federally administered programs; we've already been there and done that, and know FedGov is terrible at doing things. That's why the block grants were put in place, but now we know that many states are as bad or worse.

Just zero them out. Let the states fund their own social welfare fraud programs, if they want them, and leave the residents of other states in peace.

—

The subsides also cover deductibles and copays. It’s essentially welfare disguised as “insurance”.

The coverage is no worse with the subsidies vs paying full freight. All Obamacare does is pay a portion of the cost for for “the poor”. But whether you pay $50 or $1000 a month the policy is the same and covers the same thing. Those polices are pretty much the same thing you get with an employer.

I went in and out of self employment. My insurance was more or less the same when I had it via an employer or bought myself. The only difference was price and who paid for it.

I get this sense that 2028 is a now-or-never year for AOC. If she doesn't run for something bigger in 2028, she'll get stuck where she is forever.

Well, what does she do after she loses to Kamala in the presidential primary? Go back to her House seat and wait some more?

Her only hope would be Kamala picking her for VP, which is possible but I wouldn't count on it. Kamala will either go black girl magic with Crockett or try to "balance the ticket" with someone like Kelly from AZ.

If Kamala wins in 2028, AOC could hope for an AG spot or something, but that's putting her future in someone else's hands.

231 everyone should be letting our local reps know that it is time for America to catch up to other countries and implement universal healthcare. No one should have to go into debt and be forced to file bankruptcy over medical debt

At least they can file bankruptcy. If the feds managed our healthcare it'd be like student loans - you accrue debt and you can't bankrupt it.

For 48 bucks they will put a lien on your property, and garnish it out of your wages, bank account or stock accounts, and charge you fees and interest until it is paid in full. They can also nab it out of your state refund.

At least that was the protocol 6 years ago when I was in tune with that part of the world.

I know we all know this - but the democrats are continuing down the path of eliminating certain demographic groups as they work to find more victims. And then alienate everybody else.

They have lost blue collar white and hispanic men voters. They are about to lose hispanic women voters. They are starting to lose the jewish vote, but more importantly, the money they bring. They have black women, unmarried college educated white women, and persons with advanced degrees.

Married women vote GOP.

The DSA types are going to scare away even more cohorts. If we get a fair count, I like our chances. The math no longer works for the left.

American Jews are not allowed to collect money together to advocate for political action because all Jews are loyal to the Israeli state and dual citizens who want Bibi to be the real shadow president, therefore AIPAC must be attacked at all times.
