OK, I finally today found an article confirming this from World Net Daily.

That is the kind of corroboration I demand today. So call this confirmed, but in the future I will still demand this kind of 2nd sourcing. I will not believe any sole source news that comes down from a poster on “X”, because I just can’t prove it is real and not an AI fake.
Anybody can fake anything and fake it coming from any source they want to fake.
It is not enough to post one blurb or vid from “X”. That doesn’t cut it anymore for me. There must be at least one more source I trust confirming that news.
“not believe any sole source news”
This is our problem ..the DOGE and Inspector General problem.
I post that the biggest fraud is in HHS because that is where the money is. And DELOITTE is the biggest fraudster in welfare programs. I saw this first hand 214-2025. In 2013-14 the GA DCH CIO went to great lengths to prevent this fraud. But the swamp won.
But it doesn’t exist until the NYT says it exists.
Left wing KFF has documented a Deloitte fraud separate from the fraud I focus on. But they are ignored here because they are left wing. Believe it or not there are those on the left who oppose fraud.
In the General/Chat forum, on a thread titled ICE Director Todd Lyons just revealed ICE recently busted the largest gift card fraud scheme EVER — and that stolen money was being sent DIRECTLY BACK to military units in CHINA, Freedom_Is_Not_Free wrote: OK, I finally today found an article confirming this from World Net Daily.

I stopped reading World Net Daily years ago when they dropped the ball on corroborating their articles - they said the equivalent of 'we try to use the best sources we can' when they were confronted on false reporting. I know this because I posted this information on a thread many years ago.
Nick Sorter, who carried the video of Todd Lyons has a good reputation for accuracy, better than that of World Net Daily. Sorter is followed by people on X like DataRepublican (small r) @DataRepublican, Mike Benz @MikeBenzCyber; O’Keefe Media Group @OKeefeMedia; Rep. Lauren Boebert @RepBoebert and many others who have proven reliable.
You're demanding I use inferior sources. You may have to seek out such inferior sources for yourself instead of demanding that I do it.
I'll record the link to this post so that when you make your demands, I don't have to bother others with my explanation - I can just post the link.
