It's not just Minnesota. Or just daycares. The deepest government honeypot is blue-state Medicaid.
And nowhere does corruption run deeper than in New York State, where everyone wants a piece of a $120 billion honeypot.

A few weeks ago, I received an email with the subject line, "Healthcare and the $2,100 Taxi Ride." The email began:
"I have a friend who drives a taxi in XXX NY. He estimates that 80% of the cab fares are paid for by Medicaid…
"Yesterday, he made a round tripper from XXX to Boston where a child had a two-hour appointment at Boston’s Shriners [Children’s] Hospital. The fare? $1,058.37 — EACH way. $2,116.74 in total."
It appears this was not a direct pay/bill to Medicaid, but a hospital pay from a fund they have for such "needs". I think we can safely assume these funds are either backed by state of federal dollars at the end of the day. His take? 37% — $783.
Attached to the email was a photo of the fare. The unusual name on it matches the unusual name of a child from a refugee family who was publicly reported injured in an odd accident.
The city where the child lives has several hospitals.
What exactly is this hospital in a different state providing — especially when getting to an appointment and back requires a full day in the back of a taxi?
How much is all of this care costing, if a single appointment costs $2,100 — the cost of a round-trip business-class, cross-country plane ticket — for transportation alone (before whatever markup the hospital is adding)?
And who is paying for all this care for a penniless refugee family from one of the poorest countries in the world?

Every state needs a super fast deep-level audit. If Fed money was used, those people need speedy trials and immediate permanent deportations.
Investigators are going way too slow, giving the crooks time to cover up and hide the money.
Shriners doesn’t charge for services
Historians 300 years from now will have a lot of material to write about how debt bloat, government-funded wokeism, and institutional theft ultimately destroyed the United States Republic.
For those who might not know....
The Muslims infiltrated and subverted the passenger ground transportation industry decades ago.. Taxis, shared ride services, airport transportation etc.
Where does it say there’s a Shriners charge? I see a transportation charge to and from Shriners. Am I missing a hospital charge?
Shriners does charge Insured and Medicaid eligible patients, they do not charge uninsured or unable to pay patients.
And the GOPe shrugged.
There is only one party in America and Trump ain't a member at least a welcome one.
Trump tried to get the ball rolling with DOGE, and the Republican wing of the uniparty wanted no part of that.
Gubmint operates for the benefit of those who operate it and both wings of the uniparty are the major stakeholders in that operation.
Minnesota, New York, Illinois, California, Ohio... the list goes on and on, the masses will be kept ignorant of this. If the masses should hear of it, the palace guard media will tie it to some sort of revenge scheme by Trump.
Political crime in the US is rampant and it will be the downfall of this country. It’s the politicians that have allowed this kind of fraud and they need to pay. A 20 year stent in prison for all of them just doesn’t seem to be a harsh enough consequence for their crimes. Also, confiscate everything they have that is a tangible asset.
This assumes that future historians will be allowed to write the truth.
I don’t think the Muslim/Communist regime will permit that. Nor would there be many who could read it seeing how useless an educated population will be to such a despotic regime.
Yep, we elect them to represent us, not turn a blind eye.
Witch Hochul should have her own chapter.

I believe it - half the taxi drivers were towel heads in Dallas in the late 80s. 80% of those were rude aZZholes too.
Of course, but then sacred cows get gored and the in-fighting starts.
I heard Musk speculated 20% of Fed govt is fraud...imagine if regular taxpayers knew demcommies were stealing 20% of their pay checks...
Let me guess. We wouldn’t be the country we are without the important contributions of third world islamic “rapefugees.”
