🚨 HOLY SMOKES. Trump officials Dr. Mehmet Oz and Jim O’Neill just dropped a MINNESOTA BOMBSHELL.

A former linen factory converted into 400 Medicaid businesses — all billing out of ONE building.

Nearly $400 MILLION siphoned from taxpayers.

Four hundred shell operations. An industrial complex no parent would bring a child to. No oversight. No alarms. Just pure fraud.

They didn’t miss it. They didn’t want to see it.

This is theft. This is corruption. And Minnesotans were robbed of real care so scammers could cash checks.

Follow the money. Prosecute everyone involved.

FOLLOW ME, THE NEXT DROP WILL BE SHOCKING!

 

TRANSCRIPT BEGINS~~~

Dr. Oz: Behind me is the Griggs Midway building.

It looks like a factory because it was a factory, a linen factory. They made cloth back there. They converted it to an office building.

You'll notice all those little signs there, and there's tons of little businesses inside. Roughly 400 Medicaid businesses were started in the building behind me over the last several years.

They generated about $380 million of billing that you, the taxpayer, were putting up. That means roughly each business had a million dollars of billing.

It's an industrial area. There's no reason that you have a mother bring her child. You can't imagine getting extra business support. An autistic child probably wouldn't want to come here. You hear the noise. It's just not a hospitable place.

The question is, how is it possible, 400 buisnesses, billing almost $400 million, were able to thrive here. What did the owner of the business - this building, think was happening inside? Why did no one in the state figure out this was a concern?

And perplexingly to me, in a place of this nature, an industrial complex that people would not come to for child care, autism care or transportation support, how is it possible that this could come up like an abscess in the heart of Minneapolis and nobody was watching.

I think it's because they weren't looking. They didn't want to know that was happening here, and it's very concerning to me that only now, when there's more federal supervision, are people beginning to ask the tough questions.

So you'll notice there's already a watch group that's observing us. They have people in cars taking pictures of us. They're calling around, trying to figure out what's going down.

And I'll tell you, they don't have to, you know, wonder. We're telling you. We're here to figure out why these folks are being defrauded. Why the people who live in Minnesota aren't getting access to the care they deserve, because it's been stolen.

But the fact that you've got people behind me in cars concerned that we're even talking about this story should be something that worries you. It bothers me. There's been a censoring of truth and inability to just own what's happening in their state.

That's concerning to me. They talk about being nice in Minnesota; I want to be nice too but a person who's a good person doesn't always have to be nice. They gotta be truthful and be honest and sometimes you gotta tell people stories they don't want to hear. That's what doctors do, and that's what we're going to do here in Minnesota, tell you the truth.

This is theft. This is corruption. This is Somali collusion.

Minnesotans were robbed of real care so scammers could buy luxury homes and cars.

A big strategic victory would be stopping All welfare and Medicare/Medicaid spending.

Period.

Close the GAO. Close all IG and AG offices. They do nothing.

The high-altitude view of the pattern here is that someone was sharing - or directing - details of how to set up these fraud mills.

I’ve heard nothing about RICO investigations...

Minnesota is the fraud capital of the USA.

I think California claims that title! I think I recall seeing a report on miles and miles of 'medical' businesses in industrial areas, all with late model cars parked in front.

Democrats were the KKK and white citizens councils too - no Republicans in those groups. Yeah, we’re NOT perfect but we’re NEVER as bad as democrats.
