On Friday, The Daily Caller<\/a> posted an article about seven states that have signed a data-sharing agreement with the Department of Justice aimed at rooting out fraud.<\/p>\n

The article reports:<\/p>\n

Across the seven states, officials have uncovered roughly $350 million in alleged fraud, according to information shared<\/a> with the Daily Caller. Under the Memorandum of Understanding signed Thursday, the states will give the DOJ access to \u201cpublicly available corporate registration and public benefits payment data held by these state agencies.\u201d It is data officials said will help the department spot fraud patterns faster.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Colin McDonald, assistant attorney general for the Department of Justice\u2019s National Fraud Enforcement Division, met with dozens of state officials before his press conference to discuss their work and how the federal government could better support it. The Daily Caller was the only outlet allowed in the room.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cTo state partners here and across the country is this: the fraud division and our U.S. attorneys\u2019 offices are ready to help you scale your efforts to strengthen your cases and deliver results for the taxpayers of America,\u201d McDonald said at a press conference following the roundtable.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cYour partnership with us is the antidote to the fraud epidemic facing our nation. And my message to the fraudsters is this: Our team is getting bigger, our resolve is getting stronger, and your time is getting shorter,\u201d he added.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The article concludes:<\/p>\n

The administration\u2019s focus on fraud came after YouTuber Nick Shirley exposed nearly a dozen Somali-run daycare centers<\/a> in Minnesota that were not actually providing services.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Trump White House later launched a task force dedicated to rooting out fraud across the country. The effort has been led by Vice President JD Vance, who McDonald reports to in his newly created position. <\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cThe fraud-fighting team assembled here today is resolved to work together to break those cycles and bring the fraudsters out into the light,\u201d McDonald said Thursday.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cWhen federal prosecutors work with state agencies to share leads, data, strategy, the American people win. Better intelligence, better cases, better training, more money returned to victims, and more fraudsters behind bars where they belong,\u201d he continued.<\/strong><\/p>\n

If you want the fraudulent use of our tax dollars to end, you need to vote for Republicans for Congress. How many years has this fraud gone on without any administration willing to do anything about it? Do you really believe a Democrat Congress will allow these investigations to continue?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
