From millionaires to overseas foreigners, from NFL players to luxury car owners, our money is going to everyone but us. ou’d think that the recent find of 34,000 deceased North Carolinians still registered to vote would be bad enough, but Epoch Times reported 5,000 deceased people are also receiving SNAP benefits. This sounds like the plot of a B-rate horror movie: “Night of the Voting/Eating Dead.” SNAP is the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program providing benefits to people, like food stamps. USDA Secretary Brooke Rollins stated that SNAP is one of the “most corrupt, dysfunctional programs” in U.S. history, with 80%...

The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) is ramping up efforts to crack down on food stamp fraud nationwide, targeting what officials say is a loophole allowing some wealthy individuals to qualify for government benefits. Secretary Brooke Rollins posted on X this week that a single state has 14,000 individuals on SNAP benefits who also drive luxury vehicles like Ferraris, Bentleys and Lamborghinis. She warned fraudsters the USDA is working to close a loophole under the Broad-Based Categorical Eligibility policy used to qualify for Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) benefits despite having the financial means to purchase cars for hundreds of...

Secretary Brooke Rollins @SecRollins In just ONE state, 14,000 individuals receiving SNAP benefits were driving LUXURY VEHICLES! 🚗 3 Bentleys 🚗 3 Ferraris 🚗 11 Lamborghinis 🚗 59 Maseratis 🚗 141 Porsches 🚗 244 Alfa Romeos 🚗 306 Land Rovers 🚗 2,098 Teslas And this is just in ONE STATE. We need to defend our nutrition programs for those most in need, not for scammers gaming the system. These individuals are taking advantage of the American taxpayer. And together with @VP’s Task Force to Eliminate Fraud, this ends NOW. 4.3M Americans have been moved off of SNAP — but more...

White House economists estimate the United States has a shortage of 10 million houses, according to a new report out Monday — and say regulatory cuts could lead to more construction to stabilize prices, increase home ownership and fuel faster economic growth. The analysis, part of the Economic Report of the President, outlines both a political risk and a messaging opportunity for President Donald Trump, whose public approval has slumped because of concerns about his tariffs, the Iran war and his unfulfilled promises to slash inflation and unleash stronger growth. Trump signed two executive orders in March directing federal agencies...

There’s a new forecast of the Social Security boost retirees should expect in 2027 - and it’s a huge disappointment for the millions of Americans who depend on their bi-monthly benefit checks... Older Americans absolutely rely on this so-called ‘cost of living adjustment’ or COLA, since more than 40 percent of them depend on Social Security alone for all of their retirement income. The new estimate of the forthcoming official 2027 cost-of-living adjustment shows the average Social Security benefit check will only rise by $56, or roughly 2.8 percent. The average benefits check for retired workers would increase to $2,081...

65% of Haitian non-citizen households are on welfare. They are draining our resources, making America weaker and poorer. It is absolutely idiotic to give them backdoor amnesty by extending TPS.

Tamica Brown, has been arrested in Florida after she reportedly stole more than $120,000 in SNAP benefits from over 200 victims. Brown allegedly drained people's accounts using stolen EBT card numbers. She then bought various store products and would resell them on street corners. But Democrats told me there’s no fraud?!

Key Points Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin on Thursday laid out details of the Trump administration’s plan to send Americans relief money. The White House is talking to congressional leaders of both parties about a massive stimulus package to blunt the impact of the coronavirus crisis. The proposal includes sending payments directly to Americans totaling $500 billion, broken up into two tranches. “The first one would be $1,000 per person, $500 per child,” Mnuchin said. “So for a family of four, that’s a $3,000 payment. ============================================================================= Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin on Thursday laid out details of the Trump administration’s plan to...

In an expose written by senior fellow Christopher Rufo at the Manhattan Institute for Policy Research for the Institute's City Journal he wrote "experts and Health & Human Services officials estimated that fraud has consumed between $180 billion and $280 billion of public funds meant to provide heath care, unemployment benefits and general welfare payments." "While the state's indifferent and careless administration of these programs is the primary culprit, the lax enforcement of the federal government under Biden, and now Trump, bears a share of the blame," Rufo asserted. "Thousands of reports from whistleblowers led to fewer than 100 prosecutions."...

States are paying contractors such as Deloitte, Accenture, and Optum millions of dollars to help them comply with the One Big Beautiful Bill Act — a law that will strip safety-net health and food benefits from millions. State governments rely on such companies to design and operate computer systems that assess whether low-income people qualify for Medicaid or food aid through the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, commonly referred to as food stamps. Those state systems have a history of errors that can cut off benefits to eligible people, a KFF Health News investigation showed. These benefits, provided to the poorest...

U.S.Department of Agriculture(USDA) Secretary Brooke Rollins revealed the shocking number of fraud cases uncovered and stamped out by her agency in an exclusive interview with Breitbart News. During a sit-down chat Friday at her department’s headquarters, Rollins shared how the Department of Government Efficiency(DOGE) helped her tackle the massive black hole of unnecessary Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program(SNAP) and unrelated grant spending left over from the Biden administration. “I can’t give enough credit to Elon Musk, who I still am in contact with today, and to the DOGE team that came in,” the secretary said. “I know some of the other...

As the Trump administration works on deporting the millions of illegal immigrants that the Biden administration let in through the southern border, Democrats and the left have insisted that America is "a nation of immigrants." It's just another attempt to twist words and meanings to fit their ideology. Traditionally, immigrants expected to come to the U.S. and work hard to achieve success. As if we didn't already suspect, today's immigrants appear to have a very different idea of what coming to America is.Center for Immigration Studies Director Jessica Vaughan on the burden of illegal aliens on taxpayers:“Over 60% of illegal...

Pennsylvania’s welfare fraud rate surged 165 percent in 2025, vaulting the Commonwealth to the fourth‑highest rate in the nation and raising fresh questions about whether Harrisburg and its largest cities are equipped to protect taxpayer dollars. The spike comes as the state’s primary anti‑fraud watchdog, the Office of State Inspector General, operates with long‑standing vacancies and limited independence, while major jurisdictions such as Philadelphia and Pittsburgh lack their own welfare fraud units or truly independent inspectors general with law‑enforcement authority
