|    The Massive Fraud Scandal No One Is Talk    |

      XPost: alt.fraud, alt.politics.republicans, alt.fan.rush-limbaugh       XPost: sac.politics, talk.politics.guns       From: leroysoetoro@americans-first.com              https://pjmedia.com/matt-margolis/2025/12/30/the-massive-fraud-scandal-no-       one-is-talking-about-n4947717              Everybody's buzzing about that Minnesota Medicaid mess with Gov. Tim Walz.       Some are even calling it the largest fraud scandal ever. If only. Blue-       state fraud is undoubtedly a problem, and Walz should be held accountable       if he did indeed look the other way. But what happened in the land of       10,000 lakes is tiny compared to the fraud in California under Gavin       Newsom. Heck, it makes Minnesota look like pocket change.              A fresh 92-page bombshell from the California State Auditor lays it all       out.              “This latest report was issued by the state auditor, and that's a       nonpartisan position; that state auditor now puts eight state agencies on       the high-risk list of agencies to watch out for, for things like fraud and       mismanagement as well as waste,” Newsmax correspondent Heather Myers       revealed last week. “Here's a look at that 92-page report. Newly added to       the high-risk list is California's food stamp program. If the state       doesn't get the improper payments under control, it could cost an extra       $2.5 billion. Also on there is the Department of Finance, which was tasked       with giving out COVID relief funds. Critics say $32 billion of that was       taken by fraudsters. Then there are infrastructure issues like       California's deteriorating dams, and also the high-speed train that's       already cost taxpayers 18 billion without a single section of track       complete.”              But wait, there’s more!              “Other reports cite $24 billion spent on the homeless issue that critics       claim the state lost track of. More recently, there's a report that says       California cell phone users paid a surcharge for years to upgrade the       state's 911 system,” she added.              Tallied all up, California taxpayers lost $70 billion to fraud.                     But here’s where things get really interesting. While pressure is on in       Minnesota to get to the bottom of the state’s fraud, California seems to       be under the radar.              Now get this. Right in the middle of the fraud apocalypse, a new ballot       initiative seeks to impose a one-time 10% wealth tax on billionaires'       assets.              “Billionaires are threatening to leave California, and it's all because of       a possible new ballot initiative in the state. It's a wealth tax. A       healthcare labor group is behind this push, calling for a one-time tax on       billionaires equal to 10 percent of their assets. And right now, it does       not have enough signatures to get on the ballot,” CNN’s Abby Phillip       reported Monday. “These are big numbers, just to let people know what       we're talking about here. Larry Page, for example, he's worth $258       billion. His estimated tax would be $12 billion. Peter Thiel, worth $27       billion. His estimated tax would be $1.2 billion. That's not $1.2 in your       pocket. It's billions of dollars. So, I mean, should they or should they       not?”              CNN's Scott Jennings torched the whole scheme; it’s about covering up the       fraud.              “And it is not for the public benefit,” he pointed out. “In California,       the state auditor just found $70 billion in fraud going on in the state.       The reason they need a wealth tax is to cover up the fraud. The hole in       the budget in California is due to fraud. That's why they're trying to tax       people." Boom. Panelists flipped out. Jennings doubled down. Why 5%? Why       billionaires? Arbitrary envy tax to paper over Sacramento's black hole.       Imagine handing more cash to the clowns who blew $24 billion on tent       cities.”              Make no mistake about it, he’s right. Newsom is going to run for president       in 2028. Something tells me that $70 billion in fraud on Gavin's watch is       the kind of thing that won’t sit well in a primary, much less the general       election.                     --       November 5, 2024 - Congratulations President Donald Trump. We look       forward to America being great again.              We live in a time where intelligent people are being silenced so that       stupid people won't be offended.              Every day is an IQ test. Some pass, some, not so much.              Thank you for cleaning up the disasters of the 2008-2017, 2020-2024 Obama       / Biden / Harris fiascos, President Trump.              Under Barack Obama's leadership, the United States of America became the       The World According To Garp. Obama sold out heterosexuals for Hollywood       queer liberal democrat donors.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
