It's that time, time, time, time, Luck and load.
Speaker 2 (00:09):
Michael Verie show is on the air. He pulls a knife,
you pull a gun. He sends one of yours to
the hospital. You say, I want a history of the.
Speaker 3 (00:16):
Mark that's your back.
Speaker 2 (00:18):
Today you hardly see a police car in a neighborhood.
Speaker 4 (00:21):
Decland Morgan has owned and operated Irish Nobleman Pub and
What's Down for more than twenty years.
Speaker 2 (00:26):
Yet in recent years violent crime has walked through the
front door.
Speaker 5 (00:32):
This is video from the bar from when the armed
robbery crew came in right before closing, taking cash and
belongings from customers, employees, and the pub.
Speaker 6 (00:41):
And it just seems like crime is really pay out
of control right now.
Speaker 7 (00:45):
Earlier today in the Oval Office, Donald Trump looked at
the assembled cameras and asked for me personally to say,
mister President, can you do us the honor of protecting
our city? Instead, I say, mister President, do not come
to Chicago.
Speaker 4 (01:00):
The addiction on jails and incarceration in this country. We
have moved past that. It is racist, it is immoral,
it is unholy, and it is not the way to
drive vonts Dale as the mayor of this I heard
aid tell you that's the colonist statement or not. It
was actually sent to me my friend nam Jay. It's
the guy who's speaking is Jason Lamar.
Speaker 2 (01:23):
I don't know him. You know who that is?
Speaker 8 (01:25):
Ramon could be somebody famous, I don't know. And he's
talking about this whole you hate me for being transgender,
or for being black, or for being gay, And he says,
nobody hates you for who you are. Now we might
strongly dislike you for behaviors that you engage in, you know,
(01:46):
like boys going into the girl's bathroom, or shooting people,
or mugging people, or raping people or carjacking people. Yeah,
we don't care for that behavior. That's true.
Speaker 9 (01:57):
I don't know who needs to hear this. But nobody
hates you because you're a transformer. Yes, you're a weirdo, but.
Speaker 2 (02:04):
That's your business.
Speaker 9 (02:05):
The problem is that you try and force everyone else
to participate in your delusions and adopt your mental illness
as their own. Similarly, nobody is judging you because of
the color of your skin. They judge you because you
do ignorant crime racism. As soon as you find out
that your actions have consequences. By the same token, nobody
cares that you are gay. Hell, they wouldn't even know
(02:28):
if you kept it to yourself. It didn't act like
a fruitcake. But you made your sexual preference your whole
personality and then shoved it down everyone's throat.
Speaker 2 (02:36):
That's why people don't like you.
Speaker 7 (02:38):
I know.
Speaker 9 (02:38):
Identity politics have brainwashed you into believing that any blowback
to your behavior is bigotry.
Speaker 2 (02:44):
But that's the issue. Isn't who you are. The issue
is how you are.
Speaker 9 (02:48):
Your victimhood just won't allow you to accept that, because
that would mean that you have to change, and that's
much harder than being the little loser who cried discrimination.
Speaker 8 (02:58):
I heard a clip of a liberal white woman who
are the downfall of America, And the question was asked,
how old does a child have to be before they
can tell you they want to be.
Speaker 2 (03:10):
The opposite sex?
Speaker 8 (03:12):
And she said, Violet tell us when she was one
and a half that she was transmitter.
Speaker 2 (03:16):
A one and a half year old does not know
what that means? You sick o.
Speaker 8 (03:22):
You know what a one and a half year old does?
Repeat exactly what they're told. Violet, you're a boy, Victor
you're a girl.
Speaker 2 (03:33):
Okay, I'm a girl. They don't know any better.
Speaker 1 (03:37):
What age do you.
Speaker 10 (03:37):
Think most trans kids determine that they're trans?
Speaker 11 (03:42):
Violet told us when she was one and a half.
She's been telling us since she could speak, so she
knew since birth.
Speaker 8 (03:54):
Michael Malice, on a podcast called Trigger Nometry.
Speaker 2 (04:00):
Said it very very well.
Speaker 8 (04:02):
People underestimate how much liberal white women are willing to
sacrifice their own children for status.
Speaker 12 (04:11):
I think people underestimate to what extent privileged, especially white women,
are willing to sacrifice their children for the altar of status.
For them, having a transkid is like winning the lottery, right,
and you laugh, but it's really the case.
Speaker 2 (04:25):
It's very disturbing.
Speaker 12 (04:26):
They're the only ones bringing their kids to drag shows
because for these affluent white female liberals, offers a man
in makeup is like the second Coming, and you know,
they're showing dad or their husband or whoever, how enlightened
they are, because this is what corporate media tells them.
So they can't wait to bring their kids and show
how with the program they are. So they are a menace,
(04:47):
and this, in my opinion, is Munchausen's by proxy.
Speaker 2 (04:50):
You know, they're torturing their kids for.
Speaker 12 (04:52):
The sake of status and accolades.
Speaker 8 (04:54):
It's Moonchausen syndrome. It's exactly what it is, Moonchousen by proxy.
But it's amazing how many white liberal women use their
children as props for their own virtue. Signaling Rosie O'Donnell
after the Trantifa shooting in Minneapolis, I'm sorry, mogadishue, she said, Yeah,
(05:16):
it's a Republican who did it. Well, of course it wasn't.
And everyone is dogging her for this, and I'm no
Rosie o'donald fan, but I actually give her a little credit.
She released an apology to Maga for her earlier video,
and that's not always an easy thing to do. So
(05:37):
I gotta say props to her. Hello, I know your reaction.
I read your emails. Oh she just doing that to
She could have just there's a lot of other stupid people.
Speaker 2 (05:48):
She could have just gone.
Speaker 8 (05:50):
We want them to apologize, we want them to admit
their mistakes.
Speaker 13 (05:54):
Hi, everybody, it's Rosi o'donald's star the flinstones. Listen, I
have all I know. Happens get run down, you know? Anyway,
I know a lot of you were very upset about
the video I made before I went away. For a
few days. I didn't go online and haven't seen them
(06:14):
till today. But you are right. I did not do
my due diligence before I made that emotional statement, and
I said things about the shooter that were incorrect. I assumed,
like most shooters, they followed a standard mo O and
had standard you know, feelings of you know, NRA love
(06:38):
and kind of gun people. Anyway, the truth is I
messed up, and when you mess up, you fess up.
I'm sorry. This is my apology video, and I hope
it's enough.
Speaker 8 (06:51):
I just thought this next clip, this is six twenty two.
It was sent to me from somebody. They found it
on TikTok, and it's called three Kids in Me, and
I just thought, considering how rednecks are the people who
have to save your life when the flood comes or
whatever else I saw, this was a good clip I'd
share today.
Speaker 10 (07:11):
I would like to give thanks to all of the
rednecks of the United States, every single one of you.
Speaker 2 (07:17):
Thank you.
Speaker 10 (07:18):
As I'm watching these videos of everything that's going on
in Ireland and England and all of these other European
countries where crimes against females have skyrocketed, I don't know
what words were allowed to say on this stupid app
Thank you, all of you, gun toting, flag loving wild
(07:45):
men and women.
Speaker 8 (07:48):
Thank you.
Speaker 10 (07:50):
Without you, we would be experiencing that or maybe worse here.
So h today is thank a redneck day.
Speaker 2 (07:57):
Thank you. Well, I have a story for you.
Speaker 14 (08:02):
My brother in law murdered too Native American to.
Speaker 2 (08:06):
Michael Barry Joe, now you have my attention to.
Speaker 8 (08:10):
I played you the clip of Jasmine Crockett in her
New Ghetto accent.
Speaker 2 (08:15):
But let's go back to.
Speaker 8 (08:17):
Twenty nineteen where she claims she became a lawyer because
she was a victim of a hate crime or two.
Speaker 15 (08:28):
I had a great background as relates to my ability
to deal with numbers, and it was gonna pay well,
so I was like, I'll be an accountant. Unfortunately, around
my junior year, I was the victim of a hate
crime or two, and so were a group of my friends.
(08:49):
All at the same time.
Speaker 2 (08:50):
Cars were keyed with the N word.
Speaker 15 (08:52):
We received hate mail in our on campus mailboxes. And
at that time my school hired the Cochrane Firm, and
there was a lawyer who graduated from University of Houston
who was assigned to me and it was the first
time in my life that I felt helpless, and I
was like, I want to help people that are going
through what I've just experienced. And at that point in time,
(09:14):
I decided that I was going to sit for the
l side.
Speaker 8 (09:18):
What did you forget how many hate crimes have been?
Or are you making it up? And you're not sure
how many you should make up? And when it rolled off,
you kind of got hung up in between. Do you
notice do you notice that the accent is not the
way it sounds today, Let's hear the new accent as
of this week.
Speaker 16 (09:38):
Maybe because these people they are crazy because they always
talk about how.
Speaker 2 (09:42):
Christian they is.
Speaker 16 (09:43):
Yeah, I don't know how many of them on that
side I getting divorced because they getting caught up sleeping
with their coworkers, staffers and turns all the things. Yeah,
you ain't got to believe me. Just go Google. You'll
find some of it, I'm telling you. And the wives
is being messy and petty.
Speaker 2 (09:58):
They putting it into divorce.
Speaker 16 (10:00):
I'm like, WHOA, that's gotta be true because your lawyer
would know that they're gonna lose it.
Speaker 8 (10:04):
Here is a conversation between DL Hughley and Jasmine Crockett,
and I want you to hear what these people want.
And let's make no mistake, they want nothing short of
destroying this country.
Speaker 2 (10:22):
If you have power, use it.
Speaker 5 (10:25):
I think one of the first things I would like
a progressive Trump, I would like somebody who use the
executive pen to say, you know what, We're gonna make
DC estate, We're gonna make Puerto Rico state. We're going
to abolish the electoral college. Yeah, we're going to shrine
protect it from women in the constitution. We're going to
roll back because they had.
Speaker 8 (10:45):
More judges on the spring correctly, yes so and guardraels
and guardrails.
Speaker 5 (10:52):
I don't want just to be a default situation. The
one thing, if you without a death, they can't be
a resurrection. And that we have seen things. They have
showed me one thing clearly. Get the two wants, yep
and people to and leave everybody little.
Speaker 2 (11:09):
That's exactly what they've done.
Speaker 5 (11:10):
Can be the president for everybody.
Speaker 8 (11:12):
Let's talk about mortgage fraud for a moment. Here's CNN's
Aaron Burnette talking about Trump's mortgage fraud case in twenty nineteen.
Speaker 17 (11:20):
These New York charges residential mortgage fraud among them one
of the most serious. So he's looking at one to
three year's minimum, eight to twenty five years maximum. These
are huge ranges, but those would be inescapable.
Speaker 4 (11:32):
Right.
Speaker 17 (11:32):
There's nothing a president can do to pardon on a
state charge.
Speaker 8 (11:36):
And now that Democrats are being prosecuted for real mortgage fraud,
she seems to change her tone.
Speaker 17 (11:45):
Mortgage fraud by public officials.
Speaker 2 (11:48):
Mortgage fraud.
Speaker 17 (11:49):
This is a specific charge, and it is Trump's new
weapon being used against many enemies.
Speaker 2 (11:53):
This was a Peter Doocey report.
Speaker 8 (11:55):
I came yesterday or day before about Adam Schiff, and
I got to tell you, they're teasing us with this
whole Adam Schiff being convicted of mortgage fraud. The idea
of Adam Schiff going to prison is so thrilling for
every evil thing this man has done. To think that
justice might possibly be served is a treat I mean,
(12:19):
it's almost unfair.
Speaker 2 (12:20):
When you're the president.
Speaker 18 (12:21):
A lot of very interesting stuff crosses your desk in
the course of a day. And the most interesting thing
the President Trump has seen, based on his truth social
this week, is the mortgage history of Adam Schiff. He
thinks that the California senator has committed mortgage fraud. And
part of the President's argument is this, I've always suspected
shifty Adam Schiff was a scam artist. Adam Schiff said
(12:44):
that his primary residence was in Maryland to get a
cheaper mortgage and rip off America when he must live
in California because he was a congressman from California. And
here's a quick refresher about President Trump's beef with Shift.
Speaker 14 (12:58):
He is using the depart as both sword and shield,
acting like a convicted felon.
Speaker 2 (13:03):
Because he is a convicted felon.
Speaker 14 (13:06):
The Trump administration is corrupt. No one, not even a president,
is above the law.
Speaker 18 (13:13):
Well, now the California lawmaker, who spends a lot of
time in Maryland is responding.
Speaker 14 (13:19):
So the President today is accusing me of fraud. And
the basis of his accusation is that I own a
home in Maryland and I own a home in California.
Speaker 2 (13:29):
Big surprise.
Speaker 14 (13:31):
Members of Congress, almost all of them own more than
one home or rent more than one.
Speaker 2 (13:35):
Home because we're required to be on both coasts.
Speaker 14 (13:38):
So he is using my ownership of two homes to
make a false claim of mortgage fraud.
Speaker 18 (13:45):
The President want to want stiff penalties here, so we
had a chance to ask how stiff as you saying,
let's take you on out of Jim put A Justin Hier.
Speaker 2 (13:56):
I love to see him, Brett that Festus, ad and Dale.
I think. I think Adam.
Speaker 19 (14:01):
Schiff is one of the lowest of the low I
would love to see him brought to justice.
Speaker 20 (14:06):
He is a dishonest, crooked guy. I don't know about
the individual charge, if that even happens, but Adam Schiff
is a serious lowlier.
Speaker 2 (14:15):
The New York Post.
Speaker 18 (14:16):
First reported that Schiff barely spent any time in California
because he was always at this Maryland house three years ago.
Speaker 2 (14:24):
Back to you, Yeah, so, I guess.
Speaker 11 (14:27):
So.
Speaker 19 (14:27):
One of the things was that they said that they listened.
Speaker 2 (14:29):
As his primary residence. Peter, that was it, And you
can't do that.
Speaker 18 (14:33):
Oh, yes, And the greater, the longer version of President
Trump's truth social is very very detailed, the specific dates
that certain things were, certain boxes were checked on mortgage applications.
Speaker 19 (14:45):
But yes, the.
Speaker 18 (14:46):
President is accusing Shiff of saying that Maryland was his
primary residence when he was running to represent California.
Speaker 8 (14:54):
Then we've got Lisa Cook, who has multiple quote unquote
marry residences. You can only have one, which is absolute
mortgage fraud. Then we got Big Tish in New York
who not only claimed a house in Virginia as her
primary residence while she's the Attorney General in New York,
(15:15):
she claims she was married to her dad. All of
these are financial frauds designed to get better rates. If
they can line and get away with it, and clearly
they have for this long, then everybody can line and
get away with it, right at.
Speaker 2 (15:35):
Which point our system collapses.
Speaker 8 (15:39):
The very people likely to cook on the Federal Reserve Board,
the very people who are supposed to be in charge
of our system, are the very people committing the worst frauds.
Speaker 21 (15:53):
We were kissed.
Speaker 20 (15:55):
You all admired the champion Marble shoot, the fastest runner
all players.
Speaker 1 (16:02):
For them, Michael Berry for America.
Speaker 8 (16:07):
Since we're on the subject of the stories, I haven't
gotten to but I wanted to get out. Scott Bessant,
the Treasury Secretary, was on Fox News with Laura Trump
and the question was asked, are tariffs taxes, which they are,
to be clear, but his point was why do we
(16:27):
hear Chinese companies complaining about tariffs if the American consumer
is the one paying. Now, if we dig deep enough,
I can answer some degree of this question. But on
its face, it's a pretty good answer, and it does
(16:50):
raise other questions.
Speaker 17 (16:51):
Of course, you have critics, and they will say that
the tariffs are hidden tax on the consumers here in
the country.
Speaker 2 (17:00):
Give us the reality.
Speaker 6 (17:02):
If they're so bad and the American consumers paying them,
why do we hear the European companies or the Chinese
companies or the Chinese complaining about tariff If it's all
being borne by the American people, It's just it's just
not happening. When I talk about President Trump's economic policy,
I describe it as a three legged stool, trade tax
(17:24):
and deregulation. So either we taking the income or the
companies bring their factories back to the US. And I
can tell everyone he's equally happy with both. He likes
the income, but he wants to reindustrialize. And you know,
these jobs that are coming back. Studies have shown that
the way to middle class prosperity is through good paying,
(17:47):
precision manufacturing jobs. And when I look at these companies
that want to come in that it's incredible Secretary of
Defense Pete Hegseth in his family spent Labor Day cleaning
graves at the Korean War Memorial.
Speaker 8 (18:08):
A largely symbolic act and a beautiful one. Symbolism matters.
What did that tell every Korean War veteran out there?
The conflict everyone has forgotten, at least with Vietnam. There
were songs, there were movies, there was a national conversation.
(18:29):
You might come down on the wrong side, you might
come down on the right side. I don't know what
that is, but it's talked about World War Two. We won,
we're victorious baby Boomers, But the Korean War, those men
were forgotten. Forgotten anyway. Pete Hegseth, the Secretary of Defense,
(18:54):
says an internal audit of Bill Gates founded company Microsoft's
digital clouds system, we're being used by Chinese nationals to
hack our Department of Defense systems.
Speaker 19 (19:08):
Last month, the Department of Defense was made aware of
an Obama Biden era legacy program.
Speaker 2 (19:13):
Called Digital Escorts.
Speaker 19 (19:16):
For nearly a decade, Microsoft has used Chinese coders remotely
supervised by US contractors to support sensitive DoD cloud systems.
Program was designed to comply with contracting rules, but it
exposed the Department to unacceptable risk. I mean, if you're
thinking America first and common sense, this doesn't pass.
Speaker 2 (19:38):
Either of those tests.
Speaker 19 (19:39):
So I initiated an immediate review of this vulnerability, and
I want to report our initial findings. So, the use
of Chinese nationals to service Department of Defense cloud environments,
it's over. We've issued a formal letter of concern to
Microsoft documenting this breach of trust, and we're requiring a
third party audit of Microsoft's Digital Escort program, including the
(20:03):
code and the submissions by Chinese nationals. This audit will
be free of charge for US taxpayers. I'm also tasking
the Department of Defense experts with a separate investigation of
the digital Escort program and the Chinese Microsoft employees that
were involved in it. These investigations will help us determine
(20:24):
the impact of this digital escort workaround. Did they put
anything in the code that we didn't know about?
Speaker 2 (20:30):
We're going to find out.
Speaker 19 (20:32):
Additionally, all Department of Defense software vendors will identify and
terminate any Chinese involvement in DoD systems. It blows my
mind that I'm even saying these things in such common
sense that we ever allowed it to happen. That's why
we're attacking it so hard. We expect vendors doing business
with the Department of Defense to put US national security
(20:53):
ahead of profit maximization. I'm committed, like the President is,
to ensuring that our national security networks are secure.
Speaker 2 (21:02):
Again.
Speaker 19 (21:03):
It's America first, and it's common sense. This never should
have happened in the first place. But once we found
out about it, we've attacked it aggressively from the beginning,
and we're going to follow all the way through the
tape to make sure that this is addressed. So DD
is working in conjunction as well with our partners and
the rest of the federal government to ensure that all
(21:23):
US networks are protected.
Speaker 22 (21:26):
God bless, how many times do the Chinese have to
steal our intellectual property and show us they are out
to destroy us before we stop allowing you.
Speaker 8 (21:40):
In the totally random audio category, Joe Rogan slammed Robert
de Niro. Sometimes it's just nice to hear what you
already think repeated by someone else, whether they be famous
or have a podcast or not. And he says of
de Niro, there's something about people because they're famous celebrities
(22:02):
they think anyone wants to hear their opinion or that
it should matter more, and it doesn't.
Speaker 3 (22:07):
Look what's going on right now with Robert de Niro
Robert de Niro, because look, there's something about being a
star where you think your opinions more important than anybody
else's and you can go give a press conference. And
he obviously has been very vocal from twenty sixteen that
he hates Trump for whatever reason, maybe they have some
personal thing, whatever it is. But now he's like holding
(22:28):
press conferences, so now everyone's heckling them everywhere. He goes, like,
you've opened up this instead of just being this cranky
old liberal, which I know a lot of them, you know,
instead of that, now you're this guy that is yelling
at other people that are Trump supporters, and they're yelling
at you, like if you open to yourself up to
this nonsense, like.
Speaker 2 (22:50):
Why do that?
Speaker 3 (22:51):
Why why now every movie you go to, fifty percent
of the population is going to not want to go
see that movie instead of just you know, I think
there's a certain thing involved in being an actor at
a very high level, and I think that's one of
the reasons why you never see like Daniel d.

Speaker 3 (25:10):
Those is for.
Speaker 8 (25:14):
I forgot to do this story. It's it's clip number
six twenty. It's a little larger, longer than I like
to go with a larger file, longer clip. It's the
Department of Justice announcing the largest Medicaid bust in history.
Speaker 24 (25:32):
Thank you all for joining us today as we announce
the largest coordinated health care fraud takedown in the history
of the Department of Justice. Today marks a decisive moment
in our fight to protect American taxpayers from fraudsters and
to defend the integrity of America's healthcare system. We are
(25:56):
announcing today charges against three hundred and twenty four defendants
for their alleged participation in health care fraud schemes involving
approximately fourteen point six billion dollars in false claims submitted
to Medicare, Medicaid, and other healthcare programs. In a takedown
(26:20):
this large, I can't possibly describe all of the work
that went into dismantling each scheme, but there are four
key points that bear emphasizing. First, let me be clear
about what these healthcare fraud schemes mean for every hard
working American family. These criminals didn't just steal someone else's money.
Speaker 2 (26:43):
They stole from you.
Speaker 24 (26:46):
Every fraudulent claim, every fake billing, every kickback scheme represents
money taken directly from the pockets of American taxpayers who
fund these essential programs through their hard work and sacrifice.
And when criminals defraud these programs, they're not just committing theft.
(27:09):
They're driving up our national deficit and threatening the long
term viability of healthcare for seniors, disabled Americans, and our
most vulnerable citizens. This enforcement action involves a seizure of
cash as well as luxury vehicles and properties, returning real
money to American taxpayers and to our government healthcare programs. Second,
(27:36):
we are seeing a disturbing trend of transnational criminal organizations
engaging in increasingly sophisticated and complex criminal schemes that defraud
the American healthcare system. As part of this takedown, we've
identified in charge defendants operating from Russia, Eastern Europe, Pakistan,
(27:57):
and other foreign countries. These individuals have infiltrated our healthcare
system to steal American taxpayer dollars. As just one example,
we dismantled a scheme involving a sophisticated operation run from
Russia and Eastern Europe that strategically bought dozens of medical
(28:18):
supply companies in the United States and submitted more than
ten billion dollars in fraudulent healthcare claims to Medicare. To
make matters worse, these perpetrators used the stolen identities of
more than one million Americans spanning all fifty states to
perpetrate this scheme. And submit these false claims. But I'm
(28:43):
pleased to report that federal agents intercepted and arrested key
members of that organization at US airports and the US
Mexico border, cutting off their intended escape routes. The days
of transnational crimin organizations using the American healthcare programs as
(29:04):
their personal piggybank are over.
Speaker 13 (29:09):
Third.
Speaker 2 (29:10):
This takedown resulted.
Speaker 24 (29:11):
In criminal charges against seventy four defendants, including medical professionals,
who fueled America's deadly opioid crisis for personal profit. These
are not isolated instances of poor judgment. These are calculated
schemes designed to exploit Americans struggling with addiction while enriching
(29:33):
the very people who were duty bound to help them heal.
We charged pill mill operators who prescribed unnecessary opioids. We
dismantled networks of corrupt pharmacies that existed solely to distribute
drugs to addicts and dealers, feeding the addiction crisis that
has devastated so many American communities. This is not healthcare.
(30:00):
It is a staggering breach of trust, and under my leadership,
the Criminal Division will prosecute these criminals as aggressively as
we would any drug dealer, because.
Speaker 2 (30:11):
That's exactly what they are.
Speaker 24 (30:15):
Fourth, many of the defendants charged as part of this
takedown specifically targeted our most vulnerable citizens, elderly Americans and
nursing homes, individuals with disabilities, those battling serious illnesses, and more.
For example, our prosecutors charged seven defendants, including five medical professionals,
(30:40):
in connection with approximately one billion dollars in fraudulent claims
to Medicare and other healthcare benefit programs for performing medically
unnecessary skin grass, undying patients as they were seeking to
spend their final days with dignity and peace. That conduct
(31:01):
is exactly as callous and disturbing as it sounds. Patients
and their families trusted these providers with their lives. Instead
of receiving care, they became victims of elaborate criminal schemes.
Today's enforcement action represents the largest healthcare fraud takedown in
(31:23):
American history.
Speaker 2 (31:26):
But it's not the end.
Speaker 24 (31:27):
It's the beginning of a new era of aggressive prosecution
and data driven prevention.
Speaker 2 (31:35):
Now, if you look at.
Speaker 8 (31:39):
Scott Turner coming out recently with We're kicking illegals off
of Section eight housing, if you look at voter fraud.
Speaker 2 (31:51):
If you look at.
Speaker 8 (31:51):
All the fraud in our governmental data upon which we
base benefits votes thing, it tells you that Democrats have
been lying and cheating, and when we call them on it,
they're going to say, no, we haven't, you're a racist,
and eventually they're going to fistfight you over it. And
(32:15):
if we're not ready to fade the heat on this
battle to fight it and win it, did we lose
our country, which we were on the verge of doing.
It's that time, time, time, time, Luck and load.
Speaker 2 (00:09):
Michael Verie show is on the air. He pulls a knife,
you pull a gun. He sends one of yours to
the hospital. You say, I want a history of the.
Speaker 3 (00:16):
Mark that's your back.
Speaker 2 (00:18):
Today you hardly see a police car in a neighborhood.
Speaker 4 (00:21):
Decland Morgan has owned and operated Irish Nobleman Pub and
What's Down for more than twenty years.
Speaker 2 (00:26):
Yet in recent years violent crime has walked through the
front door.
Speaker 5 (00:32):
This is video from the bar from when the armed
robbery crew came in right before closing, taking cash and
belongings from customers, employees, and the pub.
Speaker 6 (00:41):
And it just seems like crime is really pay out
of control right now.
Speaker 7 (00:45):
Earlier today in the Oval Office, Donald Trump looked at
the assembled cameras and asked for me personally to say,
mister President, can you do us the honor of protecting
our city? Instead, I say, mister President, do not come
to Chicago.
Speaker 4 (01:00):
The addiction on jails and incarceration in this country. We
have moved past that. It is racist, it is immoral,
it is unholy, and it is not the way to
drive vonts Dale as the mayor of this I heard
aid tell you that's the colonist statement or not. It
was actually sent to me my friend nam Jay. It's
the guy who's speaking is Jason Lamar.
Speaker 2 (01:23):
I don't know him. You know who that is?
Speaker 8 (01:25):
Ramon could be somebody famous, I don't know. And he's
talking about this whole you hate me for being transgender,
or for being black, or for being gay, And he says,
nobody hates you for who you are. Now we might
strongly dislike you for behaviors that you engage in, you know,
(01:46):
like boys going into the girl's bathroom, or shooting people,
or mugging people, or raping people or carjacking people. Yeah,
we don't care for that behavior. That's true.
Speaker 9 (01:57):
I don't know who needs to hear this. But nobody
hates you because you're a transformer. Yes, you're a weirdo, but.
Speaker 2 (02:04):
That's your business.
Speaker 9 (02:05):
The problem is that you try and force everyone else
to participate in your delusions and adopt your mental illness
as their own. Similarly, nobody is judging you because of
the color of your skin. They judge you because you
do ignorant crime racism. As soon as you find out
that your actions have consequences. By the same token, nobody
cares that you are gay. Hell, they wouldn't even know
(02:28):
if you kept it to yourself. It didn't act like
a fruitcake. But you made your sexual preference your whole
personality and then shoved it down everyone's throat.
Speaker 2 (02:36):
That's why people don't like you.
Speaker 7 (02:38):
I know.
Speaker 9 (02:38):
Identity politics have brainwashed you into believing that any blowback
to your behavior is bigotry.
Speaker 2 (02:44):
But that's the issue. Isn't who you are. The issue
is how you are.
Speaker 9 (02:48):
Your victimhood just won't allow you to accept that, because
that would mean that you have to change, and that's
much harder than being the little loser who cried discrimination.
Speaker 8 (02:58):
I heard a clip of a liberal white woman who
are the downfall of America, And the question was asked,
how old does a child have to be before they
can tell you they want to be.
Speaker 2 (03:10):
The opposite sex?
Speaker 8 (03:12):
And she said, Violet tell us when she was one
and a half that she was transmitter.
Speaker 2 (03:16):
A one and a half year old does not know
what that means? You sick o.
Speaker 8 (03:22):
You know what a one and a half year old does?
Repeat exactly what they're told. Violet, you're a boy, Victor
you're a girl.
Speaker 2 (03:33):
Okay, I'm a girl. They don't know any better.
Speaker 1 (03:37):
What age do you.
Speaker 10 (03:37):
Think most trans kids determine that they're trans?
Speaker 11 (03:42):
Violet told us when she was one and a half.
She's been telling us since she could speak, so she
knew since birth.
Speaker 8 (03:54):
Michael Malice, on a podcast called Trigger Nometry.
Speaker 2 (04:00):
Said it very very well.
Speaker 8 (04:02):
People underestimate how much liberal white women are willing to
sacrifice their own children for status.
Speaker 12 (04:11):
I think people underestimate to what extent privileged, especially white women,
are willing to sacrifice their children for the altar of status.
For them, having a transkid is like winning the lottery, right,
and you laugh, but it's really the case.
Speaker 2 (04:25):
It's very disturbing.
Speaker 12 (04:26):
They're the only ones bringing their kids to drag shows
because for these affluent white female liberals, offers a man
in makeup is like the second Coming, and you know,
they're showing dad or their husband or whoever, how enlightened
they are, because this is what corporate media tells them.
So they can't wait to bring their kids and show
how with the program they are. So they are a menace,
(04:47):
and this, in my opinion, is Munchausen's by proxy.
Speaker 2 (04:50):
You know, they're torturing their kids for.
Speaker 12 (04:52):
The sake of status and accolades.
Speaker 8 (04:54):
It's Moonchausen syndrome. It's exactly what it is, Moonchousen by proxy.
But it's amazing how many white liberal women use their
children as props for their own virtue. Signaling Rosie O'Donnell
after the Trantifa shooting in Minneapolis, I'm sorry, mogadishue, she said, Yeah,
(05:16):
it's a Republican who did it. Well, of course it wasn't.
And everyone is dogging her for this, and I'm no
Rosie o'donald fan, but I actually give her a little credit.
She released an apology to Maga for her earlier video,
and that's not always an easy thing to do. So
(05:37):
I gotta say props to her. Hello, I know your reaction.
I read your emails. Oh she just doing that to
She could have just there's a lot of other stupid people.
Speaker 2 (05:48):
She could have just gone.
Speaker 8 (05:50):
We want them to apologize, we want them to admit
their mistakes.
Speaker 13 (05:54):
Hi, everybody, it's Rosi o'donald's star the flinstones. Listen, I
have all I know. Happens get run down, you know? Anyway,
I know a lot of you were very upset about
the video I made before I went away. For a
few days. I didn't go online and haven't seen them
(06:14):
till today. But you are right. I did not do
my due diligence before I made that emotional statement, and
I said things about the shooter that were incorrect. I assumed,
like most shooters, they followed a standard mo O and
had standard you know, feelings of you know, NRA love
(06:38):
and kind of gun people. Anyway, the truth is I
messed up, and when you mess up, you fess up.
I'm sorry. This is my apology video, and I hope
it's enough.
Speaker 8 (06:51):
I just thought this next clip, this is six twenty two.
It was sent to me from somebody. They found it
on TikTok, and it's called three Kids in Me, and
I just thought, considering how rednecks are the people who
have to save your life when the flood comes or
whatever else I saw, this was a good clip I'd
share today.
Speaker 10 (07:11):
I would like to give thanks to all of the
rednecks of the United States, every single one of you.
Speaker 2 (07:17):
Thank you.
Speaker 10 (07:18):
As I'm watching these videos of everything that's going on
in Ireland and England and all of these other European
countries where crimes against females have skyrocketed, I don't know
what words were allowed to say on this stupid app
Thank you, all of you, gun toting, flag loving wild
(07:45):
men and women.
Speaker 8 (07:48):
Thank you.
Speaker 10 (07:50):
Without you, we would be experiencing that or maybe worse here.
So h today is thank a redneck day.
Speaker 2 (07:57):
Thank you. Well, I have a story for you.
Speaker 14 (08:02):
My brother in law murdered too Native American to.
Speaker 2 (08:06):
Michael Barry Joe, now you have my attention to.
Speaker 8 (08:10):
I played you the clip of Jasmine Crockett in her
New Ghetto accent.
Speaker 2 (08:15):
But let's go back to.
Speaker 8 (08:17):
Twenty nineteen where she claims she became a lawyer because
she was a victim of a hate crime or two.
Speaker 15 (08:28):
I had a great background as relates to my ability
to deal with numbers, and it was gonna pay well,
so I was like, I'll be an accountant. Unfortunately, around
my junior year, I was the victim of a hate
crime or two, and so were a group of my friends.
(08:49):
All at the same time.
Speaker 2 (08:50):
Cars were keyed with the N word.
Speaker 15 (08:52):
We received hate mail in our on campus mailboxes. And
at that time my school hired the Cochrane Firm, and
there was a lawyer who graduated from University of Houston
who was assigned to me and it was the first
time in my life that I felt helpless, and I
was like, I want to help people that are going
through what I've just experienced. And at that point in time,
(09:14):
I decided that I was going to sit for the
l side.
Speaker 8 (09:18):
What did you forget how many hate crimes have been?
Or are you making it up? And you're not sure
how many you should make up? And when it rolled off,
you kind of got hung up in between. Do you
notice do you notice that the accent is not the
way it sounds today, Let's hear the new accent as
of this week.
Speaker 16 (09:38):
Maybe because these people they are crazy because they always
talk about how.
Speaker 2 (09:42):
Christian they is.
Speaker 16 (09:43):
Yeah, I don't know how many of them on that
side I getting divorced because they getting caught up sleeping
with their coworkers, staffers and turns all the things. Yeah,
you ain't got to believe me. Just go Google. You'll
find some of it, I'm telling you. And the wives
is being messy and petty.
Speaker 2 (09:58):
They putting it into divorce.
Speaker 16 (10:00):
I'm like, WHOA, that's gotta be true because your lawyer
would know that they're gonna lose it.
Speaker 8 (10:04):
Here is a conversation between DL Hughley and Jasmine Crockett,
and I want you to hear what these people want.
And let's make no mistake, they want nothing short of
destroying this country.
Speaker 2 (10:22):
If you have power, use it.
Speaker 5 (10:25):
I think one of the first things I would like
a progressive Trump, I would like somebody who use the
executive pen to say, you know what, We're gonna make
DC estate, We're gonna make Puerto Rico state. We're going
to abolish the electoral college. Yeah, we're going to shrine
protect it from women in the constitution. We're going to
roll back because they had.
Speaker 8 (10:45):
More judges on the spring correctly, yes so and guardraels
and guardrails.
Speaker 5 (10:52):
I don't want just to be a default situation. The
one thing, if you without a death, they can't be
a resurrection. And that we have seen things. They have
showed me one thing clearly. Get the two wants, yep
and people to and leave everybody little.
Speaker 2 (11:09):
That's exactly what they've done.
Speaker 5 (11:10):
Can be the president for everybody.
Speaker 8 (11:12):
Let's talk about mortgage fraud for a moment. Here's CNN's
Aaron Burnette talking about Trump's mortgage fraud case in twenty nineteen.
Speaker 17 (11:20):
These New York charges residential mortgage fraud among them one
of the most serious. So he's looking at one to
three year's minimum, eight to twenty five years maximum. These
are huge ranges, but those would be inescapable.
Speaker 4 (11:32):
Right.
Speaker 17 (11:32):
There's nothing a president can do to pardon on a
state charge.
Speaker 8 (11:36):
And now that Democrats are being prosecuted for real mortgage fraud,
she seems to change her tone.
Speaker 17 (11:45):
Mortgage fraud by public officials.
Speaker 2 (11:48):
Mortgage fraud.
Speaker 17 (11:49):
This is a specific charge, and it is Trump's new
weapon being used against many enemies.
Speaker 2 (11:53):
This was a Peter Doocey report.
Speaker 8 (11:55):
I came yesterday or day before about Adam Schiff, and
I got to tell you, they're teasing us with this
whole Adam Schiff being convicted of mortgage fraud. The idea
of Adam Schiff going to prison is so thrilling for
every evil thing this man has done. To think that
justice might possibly be served is a treat I mean,
(12:19):
it's almost unfair.
Speaker 2 (12:20):
When you're the president.
Speaker 18 (12:21):
A lot of very interesting stuff crosses your desk in
the course of a day. And the most interesting thing
the President Trump has seen, based on his truth social
this week, is the mortgage history of Adam Schiff. He
thinks that the California senator has committed mortgage fraud. And
part of the President's argument is this, I've always suspected
shifty Adam Schiff was a scam artist. Adam Schiff said
(12:44):
that his primary residence was in Maryland to get a
cheaper mortgage and rip off America when he must live
in California because he was a congressman from California. And
here's a quick refresher about President Trump's beef with Shift.
Speaker 14 (12:58):
He is using the depart as both sword and shield,
acting like a convicted felon.
Speaker 2 (13:03):
Because he is a convicted felon.
Speaker 14 (13:06):
The Trump administration is corrupt. No one, not even a president,
is above the law.
Speaker 18 (13:13):
Well, now the California lawmaker, who spends a lot of
time in Maryland is responding.
Speaker 14 (13:19):
So the President today is accusing me of fraud. And
the basis of his accusation is that I own a
home in Maryland and I own a home in California.
Speaker 2 (13:29):
Big surprise.
Speaker 14 (13:31):
Members of Congress, almost all of them own more than
one home or rent more than one.
Speaker 2 (13:35):
Home because we're required to be on both coasts.
Speaker 14 (13:38):
So he is using my ownership of two homes to
make a false claim of mortgage fraud.
Speaker 18 (13:45):
The President want to want stiff penalties here, so we
had a chance to ask how stiff as you saying,
let's take you on out of Jim put A Justin Hier.
Speaker 2 (13:56):
I love to see him, Brett that Festus, ad and Dale.
I think. I think Adam.
Speaker 19 (14:01):
Schiff is one of the lowest of the low I
would love to see him brought to justice.
Speaker 20 (14:06):
He is a dishonest, crooked guy. I don't know about
the individual charge, if that even happens, but Adam Schiff
is a serious lowlier.
Speaker 2 (14:15):
The New York Post.
Speaker 18 (14:16):
First reported that Schiff barely spent any time in California
because he was always at this Maryland house three years ago.
Speaker 2 (14:24):
Back to you, Yeah, so, I guess.
Speaker 11 (14:27):
So.
Speaker 19 (14:27):
One of the things was that they said that they listened.
Speaker 2 (14:29):
As his primary residence. Peter, that was it, And you
can't do that.
Speaker 18 (14:33):
Oh, yes, And the greater, the longer version of President
Trump's truth social is very very detailed, the specific dates
that certain things were, certain boxes were checked on mortgage applications.
Speaker 19 (14:45):
But yes, the.
Speaker 18 (14:46):
President is accusing Shiff of saying that Maryland was his
primary residence when he was running to represent California.
Speaker 8 (14:54):
Then we've got Lisa Cook, who has multiple quote unquote
marry residences. You can only have one, which is absolute
mortgage fraud. Then we got Big Tish in New York
who not only claimed a house in Virginia as her
primary residence while she's the Attorney General in New York,
(15:15):
she claims she was married to her dad. All of
these are financial frauds designed to get better rates. If
they can line and get away with it, and clearly
they have for this long, then everybody can line and
get away with it, right at.
Speaker 2 (15:35):
Which point our system collapses.
Speaker 8 (15:39):
The very people likely to cook on the Federal Reserve Board,
the very people who are supposed to be in charge
of our system, are the very people committing the worst frauds.
Speaker 21 (15:53):
We were kissed.
Speaker 20 (15:55):
You all admired the champion Marble shoot, the fastest runner
all players.
Speaker 1 (16:02):
For them, Michael Berry for America.
Speaker 8 (16:07):
Since we're on the subject of the stories, I haven't
gotten to but I wanted to get out. Scott Bessant,
the Treasury Secretary, was on Fox News with Laura Trump
and the question was asked, are tariffs taxes, which they are,
to be clear, but his point was why do we
(16:27):
hear Chinese companies complaining about tariffs if the American consumer
is the one paying. Now, if we dig deep enough,
I can answer some degree of this question. But on
its face, it's a pretty good answer, and it does
(16:50):
raise other questions.
Speaker 17 (16:51):
Of course, you have critics, and they will say that
the tariffs are hidden tax on the consumers here in
the country.
Speaker 2 (17:00):
Give us the reality.
Speaker 6 (17:02):
If they're so bad and the American consumers paying them,
why do we hear the European companies or the Chinese
companies or the Chinese complaining about tariff If it's all
being borne by the American people, It's just it's just
not happening. When I talk about President Trump's economic policy,
I describe it as a three legged stool, trade tax
(17:24):
and deregulation. So either we taking the income or the
companies bring their factories back to the US. And I
can tell everyone he's equally happy with both. He likes
the income, but he wants to reindustrialize. And you know,
these jobs that are coming back. Studies have shown that
the way to middle class prosperity is through good paying,
(17:47):
precision manufacturing jobs. And when I look at these companies
that want to come in that it's incredible Secretary of
Defense Pete Hegseth in his family spent Labor Day cleaning
graves at the Korean War Memorial.
Speaker 8 (18:08):
A largely symbolic act and a beautiful one. Symbolism matters.
What did that tell every Korean War veteran out there?
The conflict everyone has forgotten, at least with Vietnam. There
were songs, there were movies, there was a national conversation.
(18:29):
You might come down on the wrong side, you might
come down on the right side. I don't know what
that is, but it's talked about World War Two. We won,
we're victorious baby Boomers, But the Korean War, those men
were forgotten. Forgotten anyway. Pete Hegseth, the Secretary of Defense,
(18:54):
says an internal audit of Bill Gates founded company Microsoft's
digital clouds system, we're being used by Chinese nationals to
hack our Department of Defense systems.
Speaker 19 (19:08):
Last month, the Department of Defense was made aware of
an Obama Biden era legacy program.
Speaker 2 (19:13):
Called Digital Escorts.
Speaker 19 (19:16):
For nearly a decade, Microsoft has used Chinese coders remotely
supervised by US contractors to support sensitive DoD cloud systems.
Program was designed to comply with contracting rules, but it
exposed the Department to unacceptable risk. I mean, if you're
thinking America first and common sense, this doesn't pass.
Speaker 2 (19:38):
Either of those tests.
Speaker 19 (19:39):
So I initiated an immediate review of this vulnerability, and
I want to report our initial findings. So, the use
of Chinese nationals to service Department of Defense cloud environments,
it's over. We've issued a formal letter of concern to
Microsoft documenting this breach of trust, and we're requiring a
third party audit of Microsoft's Digital Escort program, including the
(20:03):
code and the submissions by Chinese nationals. This audit will
be free of charge for US taxpayers. I'm also tasking
the Department of Defense experts with a separate investigation of
the digital Escort program and the Chinese Microsoft employees that
were involved in it. These investigations will help us determine
(20:24):
the impact of this digital escort workaround. Did they put
anything in the code that we didn't know about?
Speaker 2 (20:30):
We're going to find out.
Speaker 19 (20:32):
Additionally, all Department of Defense software vendors will identify and
terminate any Chinese involvement in DoD systems. It blows my
mind that I'm even saying these things in such common
sense that we ever allowed it to happen. That's why
we're attacking it so hard. We expect vendors doing business
with the Department of Defense to put US national security
(20:53):
ahead of profit maximization. I'm committed, like the President is,
to ensuring that our national security networks are secure.
Speaker 2 (21:02):
Again.
Speaker 19 (21:03):
It's America first, and it's common sense. This never should
have happened in the first place. But once we found
out about it, we've attacked it aggressively from the beginning,
and we're going to follow all the way through the
tape to make sure that this is addressed. So DD
is working in conjunction as well with our partners and
the rest of the federal government to ensure that all
(21:23):
US networks are protected.
Speaker 22 (21:26):
God bless, how many times do the Chinese have to
steal our intellectual property and show us they are out
to destroy us before we stop allowing you.
Speaker 8 (21:40):
In the totally random audio category, Joe Rogan slammed Robert
de Niro. Sometimes it's just nice to hear what you
already think repeated by someone else, whether they be famous
or have a podcast or not. And he says of
de Niro, there's something about people because they're famous celebrities
(22:02):
they think anyone wants to hear their opinion or that
it should matter more, and it doesn't.
Speaker 3 (22:07):
Look what's going on right now with Robert de Niro
Robert de Niro, because look, there's something about being a
star where you think your opinions more important than anybody
else's and you can go give a press conference. And
he obviously has been very vocal from twenty sixteen that
he hates Trump for whatever reason, maybe they have some
personal thing, whatever it is. But now he's like holding
(22:28):
press conferences, so now everyone's heckling them everywhere. He goes, like,
you've opened up this instead of just being this cranky
old liberal, which I know a lot of them, you know,
instead of that, now you're this guy that is yelling
at other people that are Trump supporters, and they're yelling
at you, like if you open to yourself up to
this nonsense, like.
Speaker 2 (22:50):
Why do that?
Speaker 3 (22:51):
Why why now every movie you go to, fifty percent
of the population is going to not want to go
see that movie instead of just you know, I think
there's a certain thing involved in being an actor at
a very high level, and I think that's one of
the reasons why you never see like Daniel d.

Speaker 8 (25:14):
I forgot to do this story. It's it's clip number
six twenty. It's a little larger, longer than I like
to go with a larger file, longer clip. It's the
Department of Justice announcing the largest Medicaid bust in history.
Speaker 24 (25:32):
Thank you all for joining us today as we announce
the largest coordinated health care fraud takedown in the history
of the Department of Justice. Today marks a decisive moment
in our fight to protect American taxpayers from fraudsters and
to defend the integrity of America's healthcare system. We are
(25:56):
announcing today charges against three hundred and twenty four defendants
for their alleged participation in health care fraud schemes involving
approximately fourteen point six billion dollars in false claims submitted
to Medicare, Medicaid, and other healthcare programs. In a takedown
(26:20):
this large, I can't possibly describe all of the work
that went into dismantling each scheme, but there are four
key points that bear emphasizing. First, let me be clear
about what these healthcare fraud schemes mean for every hard
working American family. These criminals didn't just steal someone else's money.
Speaker 2 (26:43):
They stole from you.
Speaker 24 (26:46):
Every fraudulent claim, every fake billing, every kickback scheme represents
money taken directly from the pockets of American taxpayers who
fund these essential programs through their hard work and sacrifice.
And when criminals defraud these programs, they're not just committing theft.
(27:09):
They're driving up our national deficit and threatening the long
term viability of healthcare for seniors, disabled Americans, and our
most vulnerable citizens. This enforcement action involves a seizure of
cash as well as luxury vehicles and properties, returning real
money to American taxpayers and to our government healthcare programs. Second,
(27:36):
we are seeing a disturbing trend of transnational criminal organizations
engaging in increasingly sophisticated and complex criminal schemes that defraud
the American healthcare system. As part of this takedown, we've
identified in charge defendants operating from Russia, Eastern Europe, Pakistan,
(27:57):
and other foreign countries. These individuals have infiltrated our healthcare
system to steal American taxpayer dollars. As just one example,
we dismantled a scheme involving a sophisticated operation run from
Russia and Eastern Europe that strategically bought dozens of medical
(28:18):
supply companies in the United States and submitted more than
ten billion dollars in fraudulent healthcare claims to Medicare. To
make matters worse, these perpetrators used the stolen identities of
more than one million Americans spanning all fifty states to
perpetrate this scheme. And submit these false claims. But I'm
(28:43):
pleased to report that federal agents intercepted and arrested key
members of that organization at US airports and the US
Mexico border, cutting off their intended escape routes. The days
of transnational crimin organizations using the American healthcare programs as
(29:04):
their personal piggybank are over.
Speaker 13 (29:09):
Third.
Speaker 2 (29:10):
This takedown resulted.
Speaker 24 (29:11):
In criminal charges against seventy four defendants, including medical professionals,
who fueled America's deadly opioid crisis for personal profit. These
are not isolated instances of poor judgment. These are calculated
schemes designed to exploit Americans struggling with addiction while enriching
(29:33):
the very people who were duty bound to help them heal.
We charged pill mill operators who prescribed unnecessary opioids. We
dismantled networks of corrupt pharmacies that existed solely to distribute
drugs to addicts and dealers, feeding the addiction crisis that
has devastated so many American communities. This is not healthcare.
(30:00):
It is a staggering breach of trust, and under my leadership,
the Criminal Division will prosecute these criminals as aggressively as
we would any drug dealer, because.
Speaker 2 (30:11):
That's exactly what they are.
Speaker 24 (30:15):
Fourth, many of the defendants charged as part of this
takedown specifically targeted our most vulnerable citizens, elderly Americans and
nursing homes, individuals with disabilities, those battling serious illnesses, and more.
For example, our prosecutors charged seven defendants, including five medical professionals,
(30:40):
in connection with approximately one billion dollars in fraudulent claims
to Medicare and other healthcare benefit programs for performing medically
unnecessary skin grass, undying patients as they were seeking to
spend their final days with dignity and peace. That conduct
(31:01):
is exactly as callous and disturbing as it sounds. Patients
and their families trusted these providers with their lives. Instead
of receiving care, they became victims of elaborate criminal schemes.
Today's enforcement action represents the largest healthcare fraud takedown in
(31:23):
American history.
Speaker 2 (31:26):
But it's not the end.
Speaker 24 (31:27):
It's the beginning of a new era of aggressive prosecution
and data driven prevention.
Speaker 2 (31:35):
Now, if you look at.
Speaker 8 (31:39):
Scott Turner coming out recently with We're kicking illegals off
of Section eight housing, if you look at voter fraud.
Speaker 2 (31:51):
If you look at.
Speaker 8 (31:51):
All the fraud in our governmental data upon which we
base benefits votes thing, it tells you that Democrats have
been lying and cheating, and when we call them on it,
they're going to say, no, we haven't, you're a racist,
and eventually they're going to fistfight you over it. And
(32:15):
if we're not ready to fade the heat on this
battle to fight it and win it, did we lose
our country, which we were on the verge of doing.
