🚨 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

🧵The world is significantly greener than it was 40 years ago — thanks to rising CO2.

Satellite data shows almost all ecosystems have grown greener by about 15% in 33 years. Crop yields are up. Reforestation is accelerating. Even marine ecosystems are benefiting.

So why isn’t the “green” movement celebrating? 🧵Image
2/ This greening effect is massive — equivalent to adding an area of green vegetation about twice the size of the mainland U.S.

CO2 is plant food. With more CO2, plants grow faster, use water more efficiently, and thrive even in arid areas.

Commercial greenhouses pump in extra CO2 for this exact reason.Image
3/ Yet official “social cost of carbon” calculations outright ignore this benefit.

When properly included, the net effect of extra CO2 on crop yields flips from negative to significantly positive.

Higher yields mean less hunger, lower food prices, and less land needed for farming.Image

🧵Schedule F is back.

Trump is resurrecting the most important executive reform of his first term — and it’s aimed directly at the Deep State.

If the President can't fire policy makers, why'd we have an election at all?

This is about restoring power to the voters by restoring Article II, Section 1 of the Constitution.

🧵Image
2/ Schedule F creates a new category for policy-making and policy-implementing federal employees.

These positions will no longer have near-ironclad permanent employment.

The President, as head of the executive branch, can once again hire, manage, and remove people who "resist" the agenda voters chose...or who are just bad at their jobs!Image
3/ The Founders vested all executive power in the President. They never intended an unaccountable fourth branch of government.

The modern administrative state — insulated bureaucrats who view elected leaders as temporary — is a 20th-century invention that inverted constitutional order.

Schedule F begins to claw it back.Image

🧵Juneteenth: No, America Wasn’t Built by Slaves—Slavery Held Us Back

Let’s talk about what really made America rich, and why the Left keeps lying about it.

Hint: it wasn’t forced labor. It was freedom. Image
2/ Today, we rightly celebrate Juneteenth: the day in 1865 when Texas slaves learned they were free.

That freedom was secured by Republicans, at gunpoint, from the same Democrats who enslaved them in the first place.

The narrative needs a correction. Image
3/ The Left says America’s wealth was “built on the backs of slaves.”

That’s a lie. Slaves were oppressed. But slavery built nothing lasting.

U.S. wealth was built by free men, free markets, and the unleashing of human potential.

Slavery didn’t build America. It delayed it.Image

🧵We could have had cell phones 40 years sooner.

The technology existed by the 1940s. The holdup wasn’t engineering — it was government regulation, spectrum hoarding, and cronyism.

What else are we missing today because of Washington? 🧵 Image
2/ In 1945, the head of the FCC promised Americans would soon have “handie-talkies.”

But the FCC prioritized broadcast TV over mobile phones. They gave TV massive needless spectrum — most of it left unused — while starving “land mobile” services.

Cellular networks were proposed in 1947. Approved? Not until the 1980s.Image
3/ AT&T had the tech but was slow to push it — they liked their landline monopoly.

Motorola and small radio common carriers lobbied hard against cellular to protect their businesses.

Result: decades of delay, sky-high prices, and long waiting lists for primitive mobile phones. Image

🧵The SpaceX IPO isn’t overpriced. The future is underpriced.

Fourteen years ago, Facebook’s IPO was mocked as a failure. I called it a Strong Buy. Those who listened made a fortune.

SpaceX is the same story — only much, much bigger. It's the East India Company all over again.🧵Image
2/ Facebook dominated the social graph. SpaceX is organizing the economic graph of a multiplanetary civilization, and remaking intercontinental transport at the same time.

It launches ~85%+ of the whole world's payload mass to orbit. Starlink connects the planet. Starship slashes costs 95% and enables orbital data centers, lunar industry, Martian cities, point-to-point Earth transport, and military logistics at unprecedented speed.Image
3/ Wall Street will obsess over today’s revenue and tomorrow’s capex. That misses the point entirely.

SpaceX isn’t just a launch company. It’s building the transportation layer for the Solar System — mass, energy, process, and value on a scale that echoes the opening of the New World in 1492.

At any reasonable IPO price, this is a generational bargain.Image

🧵The USS Nimitz — America’s oldest aircraft carrier, laid down in 1968 and scheduled for decommissioning this month — just showed up off Cuba’s coast instead.

Raul Castro better watch out. There's a cell beside Maduro's!

Trump isn’t letting old ships rust. He’s using them to project power. 🧵Image
2/ The Navy extended the Nimitz’s service life by ~10 months.

Now the Nimitz Carrier Strike Group is in the Caribbean, sending a clear message to Havana.

“Welcome to the Caribbean, Nimitz!” — U.S. Southern Command.

3/ The timing is no coincidence.

It comes after the Justice Department indicted 94-year-old former Cuban dictator Raúl Castro.

Cuba is in free fall, cut off from Venezuelan oil money. Ordinary citizens are burning wood and charcoal to cook while the regime maintains fuel for its military and and lavish lifestyles for its "Communist" leaders.Image
