Learing Centres everywhere.

This once-grate nation has become a griftocracy....and the Dumbo crackheads are living up to their party's 250-year history. ALWAYS on the wrong side of history...Jackson was the last of that party to have some merit. Or maybe just Jefferson.

Not that the Repubicrats are any better. Now they're two sides of the same coin...the same counterfeit slug.

The Democratic Party was once the Democratic Republican Party...which was the result of the fracture of the original Republican Party.

The two factions that emerged at the ratification of the Constitution, were the Federalists and the Anti-Federalists. The Anti-Federalists adopted the name "Republican" after Washington's terms - obviously, a name with "Anti" in it does not connotate constructive principles. Sounds like destructive hostility.

Yes, Jefferson was a "Republican." The Federalist party collapsed around 1815. The Republicans briefly had no organized opposition, but - as is human nature - the one party split into to internal factions, and the split became permanent. The one side called themselves the "National Republicans" and later took the informal name "Whig" (from the British party of the time); the other side called itself the "Democratic Republicans." Later shortened and formalized into Democrats.

So the true roots of the Dumbo crackhead party goes back to the Constitutional Convention.

History books today refuse, for some reason, to list this history. Yes, it's correct - I learned it 50 years ago when history was still taught out of books written by scholars. Today, the books insist that the one wing of the party, the Democratic wing of the then-Republican Party, was the only wing.

Again, in keeping with their tradition - denying history, rewriting it.
 


RFK Jr. says HHS loses $100,000,000,000 a year to theft.

He found some thieves would bribe poor people with flat screen TVs to get their patient numbers and enroll them in hospice.

Then they would proceed to bill Medicaid "$6,000 a month FOREVER."

RFK JR: "We shut down 800 hospices. You know what a hospice is? Where you're going to die. Typically, if you go to a hospice, you leave within 18 days because your dying is terminal."

"We started looking at these hospices in Los Angeles, and the people never died. Two or three years later they were there, and we're paying $6,000 a month."

"We found a hotel room with 29 hospices in it. I mean a hotel, every room was a hospice, and none of them had any patients. They were just addresses."

"The guys who own them, they were Estonians and Armenians and people from Eastern Europe who were getting the patient numbers. They were stealing them from doctors' offices."

"They were also going into poor neighborhoods in Los Angeles and they'd say to the people, 'We'll give you this $375 flat-screen TV. You give us your patient number and we're going to enroll you in this hospice. You don't ever have to go. We're just going to enroll you,' and then we'll charge Medicaid $6,000 a month forever. And the guy never dies, of course, because he was never sick."

"We didn't get a single call from a congressman or from a business owner saying, 'Oh, you shut down my hospice and all these patients are on the street.' None of them, because they were all crooked and they knew they were crooked."

'Chainsaw-wielding': Insiders reveal secret DOGE team lurks behind Trump duds​


Elon Musk's notorious Department of Government Efficiency is alive and well and hiding inside a Trump administration outfit producing some of his bigger duds, according to a new Washington Post report.

DOGE allies have remained within the National Design Studio, the outfit designed by the White House to pump out government websites and "brand initiatives," inside sources told the Post.

NEWS The GAO now says the U.S. government wasted $3 trillion on overpayments since 2003 out of programs like Medicaid, Medicare, Social Security, SNAP, the EITC, the VA and more. That’s about the size of France or Italy. Stunning that Democrats attacked Doge and Elon Musk trying to stop colossal waste like this. What the DSA and Democrat communists won’t tell you is that the U.S. spends $7 trillion annually on socialist-style programs—that’s where most of the overpayments come from. $3 trillion isn’t a rounding error. It’s a governing error. That’s not just waste. It’s systematic government failure. The GAO says this has been a government-wide problem for years. Washington’s biggest growth industry is fraud and overpayments. This is abuse of U.S. taxpayers.
 


And here it is…

USAID more than doubled its spending on Brazil as soon as Bolsonaro won the 2018 election. This wasn’t because Brazil suddenly needed twice the aid; the money was spent on operations aimed at overthrowing the Brazilian government.

The 2022 Brazilian election was stolen from Bolsonaro just as the 2020 U.S. election was stolen from Donald Trump and from Kari Lake in 2022, with USAID and the CIA involved in installing election-rigging machines that Brazilians didn’t even want.

Just months before the election, CIA Director William Burns visited Brazil and warned Bolsonaro not to cast doubt on the voting machines or contest the election results — implying the newly installed machines were compromised.

Additionally, Defense Secretary Lloyd “Woke” Austin — a DEI hire — visited Brazil and pressured the Chief of the Brazilian Armed Forces to accept the election results and support Lula, a convicted felon and self-proclaimed communist.

How’s that for election interference?

In other words, the overthrow of the U.S. government overthrew the Brazilian government via USAID — all at the expense of the American taxpayer.

📝 By the way, @MikeBenzCyber is the news.
 


🚨 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!
 
Don't pee on my neck...



Sec. Robert F. Kennedy Jr. exposes that the Biden admin REMOVED 90%+ PERCENT of the 80 people at HHS who oversaw anti-fraud efforts for $2.2 trillion in payments

$2.2 TRILLION DOLLARS TREATED LIKE IT'S NOTHING!! TENS of billions LOST

Xavier Becerra allowed mass fraud.

"When I came in, there's only 6 people who are in charge of all program integrity for my department!"

"My predecessor, Xavier Becerra, when he came into my agency, there were only 80 people in program integrity, 80 people. This is for 50 states and five territories. These are the people who are monitoring $2.2 trillion dollars in payments annually from my agency!"

"We do 4 million transactions a day. There's only 80 people looking at those. Xavier Becerra came in and transferred 76 of them out!"

"And it was an invitation for the fraudsters to come in and steal everything!"

"And that's why we have this hospice program! We've closed thousands of hospices here in Los Angeles. Because they didn't have patients. They were just billing us $6,000 a month for phony accounts!"

"And the durable medical equipment fraud, tens of billions of dollars here in Los Angeles County. Autism services, tens of billions of dollars all stolen because nobody was minding the STORE!"
 


🚨 JUST IN: It's just been announced that nationwide SNAP food stamps enrollment has PLUMMETED by -5.3 million in the last year after new anti-fraud protections and work requirements

GREAT NEWS! SNAP is meant to be temporary, NOT a way of life 👏🏻

Stephen Miller nailed it: "If every single person who wanted to enroll in SNAP or enroll in Medicaid or enroll in public housing was in a shared database that the federal government had access to, to verify age, citizenship, criminal record, other basic biographic facts, that single step alone would save taxpayers hundreds of billions of dollars!" 🔥

Keep purging the rolls! SNAP fraud is FINALLY being crushed.
 
Bad nooze.

Any "reforms" done by Excretive Odor, will quickly be undone in three years.

The problem, which is CONgress and the Elites' love of melanin-enhanced idlers and wastrels...foreign and domestic...that remains.
 

DOGE falsely claimed billions in savings from uncanceled military contracts​

On its “Wall of Receipts,” the Department of Government Efficiency took credit for canceling an IT services contract to 700 military hospitals—but the contract was never actually canceled.

Part of the Department of Government Efficiency’s (DOGE’s) sweeping cost-cutting efforts across the federal government conducted last year were within the Department of Defense. Of course, no one with a brain can doubt that there is plenty of waste within the Pentagon, and the proposed $1.5 trillion budget request for fiscal year 2027 (FY27) isn’t likely to improve matters.

Yet one problem in particular should raise eyebrows. One of the contracts that DOGE recommended to be cut was one valued at $1.76 billion to provide information technology (IT) services to the Defense Health Agency (DHA), supporting its more than 700 military treatment facilities around the world.

🔻 THE RECEIPTS ARE FINALLY PUBLIC.

For years, hardworking Americans were told the money was gone, the fraud was too complicated, and nobody knew where to look.

Now there is a ledger.

On August 6th, the White House put it online: http://fraud.gov. Not a rumor. Not an anonymous drop. A public record where Americans can see actions, takedowns, and money tied to the administration’s anti-fraud effort.

The numbers should stop every taxpayer in their tracks.

$229.9 billion in estimated fraud identified since January 2025.
$56.4 billion in fraudulent payments stopped on an annualized basis.
$55.5 billion enforced through indictments, settlements, and civil penalties.

Read that again.

While politicians argued on television, ordinary families were paying the bill. Every fake claim. Every fraudulent loan. Every dollar redirected from a child, a senior, a veteran, a small business, or a working family.

One line in the public ledger explains why this matters: 562,000 fraudulent or delinquent pandemic-era loans — totaling $22 billion — were referred for collection.

That is not a headline. That is a receipt.

And then came the piece they never expected: Americans now have a confidential channel to report fraud, money laundering, sanctions violations, waste, and abuse. The information does not have to die in a closed office. It can enter the record.

The old system survived on one sentence:

“Nobody knew.”

That sentence is getting harder to say.

Remember the sequence: 06.08 / 229.9 / 56.4.

The date the ledger opened. The estimated fraud identified. The payments stopped.

September will bring more updates, more names, and more public questions. Not because a hidden voice promised it — because the receipts are now where everyone can read them.

America does not heal through silence.

America heals when the receipts come into the light.

Follow the receipts.
 
And there you have it... the revolving door... or why those in charge haven't 'noticed' the fraud...
