On Monday, The Daily Caller<\/a> posted an article about the White House Task Force to Eliminate Fraud. They seem to be taking their work seriously and are doing a good job. The orange jumpsuits are coming. On Thursday, Fox News<\/a> reported that the former leader of a Minnesota<\/a> nonprofit was reportedly sentenced Thursday to nearly 42 years in prison for orchestrating a $250 million pandemic relief fraud scheme.<\/p>\n

The Daily Caller reported:<\/p>\n

The White House Task Force to Eliminate Fraud \u2014 quarterbacked by Vance \u2014 hit the ground running this year. After uncovering massive fraud in Minnesota, the task force and Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) paused over $250 million<\/a> in Medicaid funding to the state. \u201cPeople are billing the government millions, tens of million, billions of dollars, saying they are providing a service, but there\u2019s no actual confirmation,\u201d Vance explained<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n

In just three months, the team has \u201cuncovered tens of billions of dollars in defrauded taxpayer money, prosecuted dozens of fraudsters, and stopped billions in suspicious payments,\u201d said Vance<\/a>. The VP then added: \u201cwe\u2019re just getting started.\u201d He wasn\u2019t kidding<\/strong><\/p>\n

Just last week, Dr. Mehmet Oz \u2014 the administrator for CMS \u2014 announced that his agency had identified nearly<\/a> 800 suspected fraudulent providers of hospice and home health care services in the Los Angeles, California, area alone, resulting in over $1.4 billion of potentially fraudulent payments. When CMS cut off all 800 providers, fewer than 20<\/a> even attempted to contest the move, Oz reported. \u201cUnbelievable. So at least 780 are not even trying to claim that they\u2019re not fraudulent,\u201d Vance exclaimed. \u201cIt\u2019s just completely insane.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

The article concludes:<\/p>\n

And Vance has the weapons to execute the mission. The Trump administration just launched a brand new National Fraud Enforcement Division <\/a>at DOJ in April, led by Assistant Attorney General Colin McDonald. In an unusual arrangement, demonstrating how aggressively Trump and Vance want to crack down on the fraudsters, McDonald reports directly to the vice president via the anti-fraud task force.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The division has been hard at work, hitting a $50 million Medicare fraud<\/a> scheme in Los Angeles and executing 22 search warrants<\/a> against fraudulent day care centers in Minnesota, including the infamous \u201cQuality Learing Center.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

In just a few short months, the task force has unearthed massive amounts of fraud by utilizing a robust and effective whole-of-government approach.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Vice President Vance\u2019s task force has proven it\u2019s a serious effort which is producing real results. If they can keep pace over the coming months and years, the wins are only going to pile up. All Americans should be proud that this administration is finally looking out for their tax dollars.<\/strong><\/p>\n

I am thoroughly impressed by Vice-President Vance. I don’t know if it’s his Marine training that aids him in getting things done or something else, but this is a wonderful change from Kamala Harris as the Border Czar.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
