🚨 Dr. Oz just dropped a bombshell: Russia, China, and Cuba are running Medicaid fraud networks across America — stealing billions from U.S. taxpayers.

This isn’t random grift. It’s targeted exploitation of our system by hostile foreign actors.

The Trump administration is finally cracking down.

Here’s what we know. 🧵
2/ In Los Angeles: Russian government involvement in hospice fraud on an industrial scale: $600 million across nearly 500 providers.

One in three hospices in the entire United States are in LA.

Democrat leaders had the evidence back in 2022. They did zippo.

Like in Minnesota, this was happening in plain sight.Image
3/ In New York: Chinese government fraud rings.

But the bigger scandal? "Personal care services" is now the #1 job in the entire state!

Nearly 500,000 people are being paid by Medicaid to do what families used to do for free.

It has become a taxpayer-funded jobs program. And now they’re unionizing.

Because unions finance Democrats. So Democrats look the other way at the fraud.Image
4/ In South Florida: Cuban government involvement in durable medical equipment fraud.

There are twice as many DME suppliers selling wheelchairs and knee braces in South Florida as there are McDonald’s.

The owners “all seem to be Cuban and they flee back to Cuba with the money when we come after them,” Dr. Oz said.

The anti-fraud task force has imposed a nationwide moratorium on high-risk suppliers.Image
5/ While states run Medicaid, federal taxpayers pay most of the bill.

This is how adversaries turn America’s safety net into their own revenue stream.

Trump is cracking down:

• Anti-fraud task force chaired by Vice President JD Vance

• DOJ’s new National Fraud Enforcement Division already targeting nearly $1 billion in fraud

• Coordinated federal-state enforcement ramping up fastImage
6/ Dr. Oz is demanding action from all 50 states.

He has ordered governors and Medicaid directors to revalidate high-risk providers and remove the noncompliant.

New pre-payment integrity controls, stronger eligibility verification, and real data sharing across programs are coming.

After years of looking the other way, accountability is returning.Image
7/ America’s entitlements are being looted by foreign actors while Democrat politicians look away, make excuses, or actively profit.

The Trump administration is restoring order. But the scale of the problem requires sustained pressure and zero tolerance.

It also requires kicking these Democrats out of office.

Retweet if you want people to go to jail. What’s your take? 👇Image

🧵222 years ago today, America launched one of its boldest geopolitical moves.

On May 14, 1804, Lewis and Clark left St. Louis into the complete unknown.

This was not adventure for its own sake. It was strategy.

Few understand how close it came to deciding whether the United States would become a continental power — or stay a vulnerable coastal republic. 🇺🇸🗺️

🧵👇Image
2/ America had just 5.5 million people.

The Louisiana Purchase had doubled our size overnight, but we knew almost nothing about it. No maps. No roads. No forts.

European rivals watched from every direction.

An expedition to Mars today would be less daunting.

Jefferson sent them anyway.Image
3/ Geography decided everything.

The Mississippi River system is North America’s ultimate advantage — unmatched internal highways that connect fertile heartland to the sea at a fraction of the cost of anywhere else on Earth.

Control the Mississippi, and you control the continent.

New Orleans was the jugular.Image

🧵 THE MAP IS CLOSING AROUND CHINA

While the media obsesses over tariffs, rare earths, and whatever communiqué comes out of Beijing today, the real story is the map.

Australia just signed a deal to buy eleven frigates from Japan.

This isn’t a procurement story. It’s the visible edge of a new American-led security architecture that is already boxing China in — and Trump is tightening it further as he sits down with Xi.

🧵👇Image
2/ Frigates are workhorses, not prestige toys. They patrol sea lanes, hunt submarines, escort convoys, and turn vast stretches of ocean into controlled space.

Australia’s new ships will help guard the northern approaches and the critical passages connecting the Pacific and Indian Oceans.

Many will be built in Australia, creating jobs, supply chains, maintenance capacity, and permanent strategic habits with Japan.

A foreign-bought ship can be delayed or canceled. A shipbuilding relationship turns diplomacy into steel.Image
3/ This is the core of Trump’s strategy: partners, not dependents.

For eighty years, America carried too much of the free world’s defense burden while rich allies underfunded their militaries and outsourced risk to U.S. taxpayers.

Trump is ending that era. He wants allies who can actually secure their own neighborhoods — so America retains the freedom to project decisive power anywhere on Earth when it matters most.

Japan is no longer just a protected consumer. It is becoming a force multiplier and a security producer, arming and defending the coalition.Image

🧵 BREAKING: The UAE Strikes Iran!

Iran has hammered the UAE. Now Abu Dhabi is striking back — covertly, decisively, and without a word publicly.

Some reports even suggest UAE special forces may be on the ground in Iran.

This changes everything.

Thread 🧵🔥
2/ The backdrop? Iran turned the UAE into its #1 target.

The UAE didn't even join the war! Yet hundreds of Iranian missiles and drones slammed into its airports, seaports, apartment buildings, hotels, and energy sites.

UAE air defenses knocked down most — but Iran's attacks continued.Image
3/ Now the UAE has launched its own strikes inside Iran!

Multiple undisclosed operations, including possible special forces ops.

The UAE hasn’t publicly admitted it — but the WSJ broke the story late yesterday. Image

🚨 How Trump is using the Iran war to squeeze China — right before this week's Trump-Xi summit.

While the world focuses on the Middle East, the U.S. is using its naval blockade and sanctions to cut off China’s supply of steeply discounted illegal Iranian oil.

Thread 👇 Image
2/ Operation Economic Fury is starving Iran’s oil revenue — 90% of which flows straight to China through a Shadow Fleet of 500+ tankers.

China has been getting steeply discounted barrels paid in yuan to dodge sanctions.

Not anymore. 🇺🇸⚓ Image
3/ The strategy is clear:

1. Raise China’s energy costs and weaken its overall economic and technological edge.

2. Gain leverage in the Rare Earths talks.

Cheap oil has fueled China’s manufacturing and AI ambitions. Disrupting it shifts the balance of power. Image

Pro-independence activists needed 177,732 signatures. They just delivered nearly 302,000.

Alberta’s Brexit moment is here. Ottawa can no longer dismiss Western alienation as fringe noise.

A reckoning is coming.

THREAD 🧵Image
2/ Alberta isn’t just another province with political gripes. It is the productive, energy-rich, conservative West — treated by Ottawa like a colony.

Equalization payments siphon billions east (mostly to Quebec). Pipelines are blocked. The energy sector is sabotaged. Values are mocked. Ottawa extracts wealth and demands gratitude.

This isn’t Confederation. It’s subjugation.Image
3/ Mark Carney makes it even worse.

Carney is the textbook globalist: hostile to energy, at home in Davos and Brussels, and now pivoting hard to Communist China.

He just announced a “new strategic partnership” with Beijing.

For Alberta, that isn’t a future. It’s a prison sentence.Image

While the media obsesses over tariffs, Trump is quietly executing a masterclass in dollar dominance — and yanking real power away from the IMF and various globalist institutions.

This isn’t crisis aid. It’s strategic financial statecraft.

Thread 🧵🔥 Image
2/ You may have never heard of currency swap lines. They aren’t new. But Trump & Bessent’s use of them is revolutionary.

They’re extending direct dollar facilities to Gulf states & Asian partners — creating a U.S.-controlled dollar network for nations China wants to peel away. Image
3/ Normally this is IMF turf: multilateral crisis finance with surveillance, conditionality, and endless meetings.

The U.S. has ~16.5% voting power — enough to block, but not enough to run the show. Europe, China, Japan and others hold real sway.

Trump rejects that trap. Why let others veto American power?Image
