Newsom bristles at Nick Shirley fraud exposé on California
NewsNation via Yahoo ^ | , March 19, 2026 | Katie Pavlich

Posted on 03/21/2026 7:28:18 AM PDT by Mr. Mojo

YouTube content creator Nick Shirley, the independent journalist who shined a light on alleged child care fraud in Minnesota, has set his sights on another Democrat-controlled state: California.

His new exposé suggests fraudsters in the Golden State are creating fake hospice businesses by using the Medicare beneficiary numbers of seniors who are actually healthy.

California hospice enrollment has inexplicably risen by about 1,000% in recent years, Shirley says. He uncovered what he calls $170 million in suspect billings (he looks at some day care operations, too), and said operators appear to be living large by driving luxury vehicles.

“California really is just a mess,” Shirley told “Katie Pavlich Tonight” on Thursday.

His efforts were not appreciated by California Gov. Gavin Newsom’s press office, which posted a doctored image of the YouTuber arriving at a day care class covered in cameras and asking, “Hey, can I see your kids?”

Shirley said the Democratic governor should welcome the sunlight onto fraud in his state.

“I think they’re trying to intimidate other people from doing what I did because they know the fraud’s so deep. Unfortunately, for them, it backfired very bad,” he said.

Newsom cannot pad his purse when Nick continues to expose fraud.

We live in crazy times when uncovering fraud is more upsetting than ongoing fraud.

And where are the journalists? Their lack of curiosity leads to the story of the fraud itself being omitted, which becomes their coverup and complicity in the fraudulent scheme.

Journalists say: Fraud? What fraud? Hey did you see what Trump tweeted? [create a distraction]

“..Newsom cannot pad his purse when Nick continues to expose fraud....”

Grusome NewScum is just a typical lying feral communist fraud.
But, hey, he has nice pretty hair, and he wiggles when he walks.
All the AWFLs and soccer moms from coast to coast, and all across the fruited plain will vote for the vile communist basstid. Spit.

Newsom has resorted to childish name calling to deflect attention off of the massive fraud in his state.

For exposing fraud:

He called Dr. Oz a racist.

He called Nick Shirley a pedophile.

Now,imagine this idiot(Newsom)as POTUS.

We live in crazy times because America has gone down the bizarro world rabbit hole. We're coming apart at the seams and unless we return to a Christ based country, we're finished.

California state government spending has become so corrupt and fraud ridden that entire programs are are intentionally set up to distribute funds to fraudulent vendors

They also pass laws to shield people who are defrauding government programs from even the most basic verification of identity to shield fraudsters fro scrutiny and investigation. Anyone who tries to expose the fraud is silenced but the truth is that most of the government officials who administrate these programs are actively enabling the fraud.

All that scumbag Newscum has is name calling Nick Shirley by falsely accusing Nick as a being a “pedophile”. That’s all that fag Newscum has.

How much is the typical kick back (uh, commission) in a fraud arrangement like this? It was 50% for the Big Guy with Hunter Biden, but that was a family issue. And do you pay just one person to run a fake hospice, or do you have an entire upline to support in a multi-level fraud scheme?

Also, do you you just dive in or do you have to pay for training and motivational videos so you can steal all you can?

Seems to be an emerging marker ... / Libs of TikTok: Meet Erica Pan. She was appointed by Gavin Newscum to lead the California Dept of Public Health. HD3-Iv-DWw-AE-9LB Under her watch, the number of hospice centers in LA County exploded. Almost 2,000 hospice centers in ONE county. Nearly 30x more than New York and Florida. Nothing to see here… Los Angeles County is home to nearly TWO THOUSAND hospice centers. That's 30x more than Florida and New York, and more than the next 36 states COMBINED. Gavin Newscum's California is littered with FRAUD https://twitter.com/i/status/2035063139738206263 RT 0:42 /

Doubtful. The late John MacArthur gave a message on Romans 1 ("God gave them over...") and concluded that our national inability to reason is a direct result of God's judgment being already upon our nation. The reprobate mind mentioned in Romans 1 actually refers to the inability for the mind to think/reason properly. In a word, it is the state of being a moron.

WHAT? Fraud in Newscum’s California?

The California north of the border?

Reminds me of lyrics of Mothers of Invention’s great old song:
“It can’t happen here. Cuz I’ve been checking it out”

Since gruesome newsom is involved with all things illegal, why not CA with medicare fraud. Besides gruesome newsom wouldn’t know how to investigate anyone about anything. He’s an incompetent piece of manure.
