Investigative journalist James O’Keefe posted his latest undercover video report to 𝕏 Monday, exposing a fraudulent scheme where firms are reportedly ripping off taxpayers to the tune of around $100 billion.

Hilariously hiding his identity with a cheap wig and eyeglasses, O’Keefe filmed a meeting he had with the director of contracts for ATI Government Solutions where the scam was openly discussed during a meal.

O’Keefe explained the Biden administration’s 8(a) SBA Program is being exploited by shell companies that receive lucrative no-bid government contracts for being Native American-owned, collect around 65% of the money and pass along the work to subcontractors, which are paid using the remaining 35%.

During the meeting, ATI Government Solutions Contract Manager Melayne Cromwell admitted to passing through government-contracted work to companies that would typically be unable to obtain the jobs.

Cromwell even acknowledged the fraudulent scheme should be kept “secret” and that it shouldn’t be publicly known that her company has subcontractors do “about 80% of the work.”

An O’Keefe Media Group (OMG) journalist also spoke with the Tribal Chairman of a Native American tribe that “owns” companies as a front so they can receive the government contracts in exchange for a percentage of the taxpayer money the businesses receive when they’re given the no-bid jobs.

Of course, the tribe doesn’t actually do any of the work.

“We have the ability to get the contracts, and that’s probably the most important thing,” Susanville Indian Rancheria Tribal Chairman Arian Hart said.

OMG will be releasing footage of O’Keefe revealing to Cromwell that she was part of an undercover investigation later this week, as well as a second sting operation video featuring another ATI Government Solutions employee.

Yes. My company did business with NSA. NSA had a contractor who collected classified waste from other nearby contractors. In 2004 I learned that the people I dealt with were subcontractors to the Alaskan indian tribe who actually had the contract. None of them, even the local manager, had ever interacted with the contract owner in any way.

Murkowski is up to her eyeballs with the natives in Alaska with this crap, resulting in a persistant 115% of the villagers voting for her. Natives are 1/7 the population here.

Still ZERO arrests.

That company of private mercenaries (basically) Blackwater that was doing stuff in Iraq and Afghanistan during Bush’s time was actually working for a native tribe for a lot of their work because of the no-bid loophole. The three letter agencies could just push money straight out to the tribe and it passed through to Blackwater, no RFP, no bids, sole source, almost no paperwork. This is what another guy in Alaska was telling me about. I’ve heard the same story from guys in both states. It’s an open secret.

“What’s that 3% of the budget?”


A $100 billion here, a $100 billion there, and pretty soon you’re talking real money.
