The Culture War - Tim Pool - Trump Fraud Crackdown IS NOW, 8 Arrests ALREADY

00:00:00.000 You've got to try breakfast at A&W, you've got to try breakfast at A&W, enjoy A&W's bacon and anger and coffee for just $4.99, it's for a limited time, you've got to try breakfast at A&W.

00:00:25.240 At participating A&W locations in Ontario.

00:00:30.000 Today, Donald Trump announced that J.D. Vance will be the fraud czar, and they are already starting to crack down on fraud across the board.

00:00:39.680 With operations in Minnesota and in California, big news on several people being arrested.

00:00:46.040 We got it from CNN. Eight arrests made in federal crackdown on alleged health care fraud in Southern California.

00:00:53.940 Now, this story exploded onto the scene when Nick Shirley went to Minnesota and documented

00:01:00.380 a bunch of buildings that purported to be daycare centers or otherwise, and they seemed to not

00:01:05.000 be.

00:01:05.720 Now we have the continuing investigations as CBS News jumps into the fray and begins

00:01:11.200 to uncover much of this governmental fraud and waste that is occurring in these states.

00:01:16.420 But wait, there's a bigger picture on the fraud narrative that emerges when J.D. Vance

00:01:21.780 says, Ilhan Omar, mind you, is a sitting member of Congress, definitely committed immigration

00:01:29.660 fraud.

00:01:31.160 The ball's rolling down the hill, my friends, and it's going to start picking up mass, snowball

00:01:36.000 rolling down the hill.

00:01:37.500 With this statement, this is a bold, bold statement.

00:01:41.900 And the question is, I don't know if the vice president has the protections of what's called

00:01:46.080 the speech and debate clause.

00:01:47.060 This is a massive thing for a sitting vice president to say that a member of Congress is not a legitimate citizen of this country.

00:01:55.740 Now, already we've seen members of Congress say Ilhan Omar should be denaturalized and deported.

00:02:02.740 With J.D. Vance making this statement, well, this is a bombshell.

00:02:07.340 Of course, this was a few days ago, but with the operations underway in California, Minnesota, to put a stop to all of this fraud,

00:02:14.220 The question has never been more pertinent. Will this administration take action on immigration

00:02:20.000 fraud, especially as the birthright citizenship case is kicking up a massive storm? In other news

00:02:26.700 related to this, it turns out the two Chinese individuals, actually Americans, who planted the

00:02:33.080 bombs, or at least they're accused of planting bombs at this CENTCOM base, Central Command,

00:02:37.860 they're the children of illegal immigrants from China, which is wrapping everything up with a

00:02:43.760 neat little bow. One big picture. People coming to this country illegally, having kids and then

00:02:49.600 defrauding our government. And the question is, what, if anything, will we do as the American

00:02:55.720 people to stop it? Now, this story on the fraud crackdown is broad. We've got the operations in

00:03:02.220 California. We've got new information emerging on J.D. Vance's plans and position. But let's start

00:03:08.300 where it gets the most salacious. The vice president saying Ilhan Omar committed fraud

00:03:13.120 and previous statements that if it were true she did commit immigration fraud,

00:03:17.880 she should be denaturalized and deported.

00:03:21.440 Where it gets crazier, the Trump admin has already denaturalized some individuals

00:03:26.460 and kicked them out for fraud.

00:03:29.200 So it's going to get particularly spicy, mind you.

00:03:31.740 So let's dive into the news.

00:03:33.560 Before we do, we get a great sponsor for you.

00:04:18.260 Do not get censored and banned. But let's start with the news from Fox 9. J.D. Vance says Ilhan

00:04:25.260 Omar definitely committed immigration fraud. They say Vance appeared on conservative Benny

00:04:31.440 Johnson's podcast over the weekend where he accused the Minnesota lawmaker of fraud.

00:04:36.360 Ilhan Omar definitely committed immigration fraud against the United States of America.

00:04:40.380 She has been at the center of a lot of the worst fraudsters, the center of the Somali community.

00:04:44.960 Omar has been at odds with the Trump administration and the White House multiple times over accusations

00:04:49.920 that she married her brother to obtain U.S. citizenship.

00:04:53.320 No, no, no.

00:04:55.140 She had U.S. citizenship and she married her brother to get him citizenship.

00:04:59.680 So the phrasing needs to be cleaned up.

00:05:01.760 Fox 9 looked into those allegations and found no evidence that can corroborate that.

00:05:05.380 That, well, Fox 9, what you're really saying is you're really bad at your jobs because even the Star Tribune said, and this is a quote, that Ilhan Omar may have married her brother.

00:05:17.440 So really, it's going to come down to can you enforce the law?

00:05:21.540 And, you know, we've had great conversations about whether or not you can or can't, but it's going to come down to the willpower.

00:05:27.620 Excuse me.

00:05:28.200 Will you wield the power that you have?

00:05:31.660 Omar calls the allegations a ridiculous lie.

00:05:33.600 quote, this is rich coming from someone who literally said they were willing to create

00:05:37.260 stories to redirect media. I don't believe that's true. This is a ridiculous lie and a desperate

00:05:42.120 attempt to distract from the pedo protection party's unpopular war of choice, increasing gas

00:05:48.240 prices and rapidly dropping polling numbers. In late January, Omar held a town hall where after

00:05:53.740 calling for then DHS at Kristi Noem to resign over Operation Metro Surge in the Twin Cities,

00:05:58.640 an attendee stood up and sprayed Omar with liquid. That man later identified as Anthony

00:06:03.420 Kaczmierczak was charged with threats of violence and assault for the attack.

00:06:08.080 The Henneman County complaint alleges that Kaczmierczak told Omar you should effing die

00:06:11.720 during the attack. You know, I'm not sure how I feel about that attack on Ellen Omar for a variety

00:06:18.600 of reasons. I mean, the simple solution is a crazy guy did a crazy thing. But the strange thing is,

00:06:23.160 let me tell you a story. There's a story in the news, been around for a long time.

00:06:26.600 Some guy's chilling in his house. It's a horrible story. And he hears a knock at the door. He walks

00:06:31.280 open, opens the door and instantly gets splashed in the face with sulfuric acid. He collapses

00:06:37.200 and it sears his flesh off. The most important thing to know and follow up on advice on this,

00:06:44.520 but you have to rinse yourself with water immediately. And apparently the story is he

00:06:48.160 just fell down screaming as the acid was burning his face. The man who sprayed him with acid

00:06:53.280 got the wrong house. He was looking for another guy, did not know, went to the wrong house and

00:06:59.680 splashed a random guy with acid. I bring this story up because when Ilhan Omar was sprayed

00:07:05.300 with an unknown liquid, she did nothing, which either shows she's real dumb or maybe this was

00:07:13.400 staged. Don't know. But the first thing you do if someone splashes your face with liquid is

00:07:20.060 you get water on it. Now, some people have said with these acid attacks, can't you use a base or

00:07:26.300 something to try and neutralize the burn. Well, the issue is if you don't know the pH,

00:07:30.300 you can't neutralize it. You can make it worse. So the best thing you do is water just to get it

00:07:35.180 off. But follow up on that. Don't take any advice on safety procedures because what do I know? I'm

00:07:39.660 just some guy on the Internet. I don't actually know. Well, Donald Trump has issued a statement

00:07:42.780 today saying Vice President J.D. Vance is now in charge of fraud in the U.S. It is massive and

00:07:48.440 pervasive, and the job he will be doing in conjunction with many great people within the

00:07:51.760 Trump admin, will be a major factor in how great the future of our country will be.

00:07:56.120 We will call him the fraud czar, and his focus will be everywhere, but primarily in those

00:08:01.160 blue states where crooked Democrat politicians like those in California, Illinois, Minnesota,

00:08:06.460 Somalia, beware, Maine, New York, and many others have had a free-for-all in the unprecedented

00:08:11.500 theft of taxpayer money.

00:08:13.140 The numbers are so large that if successful, we would literally be able to balance our

00:08:16.800 American budget.

00:08:18.140 Raids have already started in L.A.

00:08:20.220 Good luck, J.D.

00:08:21.760 So I'm going to add this to the mix. When you make J.D. Vance the fraud czar, and he just recently said Ilhan Omar committed immigration fraud, I think it's entirely possible that Ilhan Omar is going to get the boot.

00:08:38.000 But holy crap, would that be nuts?

00:08:40.620 Going in, charging her, denaturalizing and deporting a sitting member of Congress.

00:08:46.340 This is from W.A.B.C.

00:08:49.500 Radio from end of February.

00:08:53.120 They say Harmeet Dillon confirmed this week that individuals who obtained U.S.

00:08:57.100 citizenship through fraudulent means, including misrepresented marital or familial status,

00:09:01.180 could face denaturalization proceedings under federal law.

00:09:04.580 Dillon made the remarks while discussing the legal standards surrounding citizenship

00:09:07.140 application, stating if you lie about your marriage status on which your citizenship depends or your

00:09:12.420 familial status or what have you, if you fake any of those documents or you lie, that's grounds for

00:09:17.880 denaturalization. Now, hold on there a gosh darn minute. The the allegation against Ilhan Omar is

00:09:23.940 not that she married her brother so that she could be a citizen. It's that she was a citizen and she

00:09:29.380 married her brother so that he could get a visa to the United States. I don't know if it's direct

00:09:33.760 citizenship. But hold on. According to the INA, to the law, an individual who commits immigration

00:09:40.480 fraud is subject to denaturalization and deportation. It does not say for what the

00:09:45.660 purpose of that fraud is. And I'll explain to you why. Many people on the left try to counter, well,

00:09:51.020 even if she did marry her brother, why would you denaturalize her? She was a citizen. He's the one

00:09:56.880 who got the fraudulent citizenship. No, no. That's not what the law says or how it works.

00:10:00.880 The point is, if an individual obtains citizenship in this country through the standard practice that we would deem legal, but uses that for the purpose of fraudulently granting access to others, they're all part of one big fraud scheme.

00:10:17.440 It doesn't need to be that she obtained citizenship fraudulently, but that she used her citizenship fraudulently to assist others in committing crimes.

00:10:27.240 if you're just the driver of the guy to the bank as he robs the bank, you're an accomplice to bank

00:10:33.780 robbery. No, no, no. Hold on. All I did was drive a car. I didn't rob the bank. So what?

00:10:39.800 You were an accomplice. You were the getaway driver. It's all part of one big scheme.

00:10:44.700 She might actually get the boot. Take a look at this. In January, Nancy Mace pushes oversight

00:10:49.700 committee to subpoena records to check if Ilhan Omar married her brother. They might actually do

00:10:56.120 it. I don't know if they're going to do it. I think they should do it. Trump threatens to

00:11:00.860 denaturalize U.S. citizens if they deserve it. Experts raise grave concerns about this,

00:11:06.020 about the future. Well, I'm pretty sure Trump already did. I thought I had this one pulled up.

00:11:12.200 Indeed. We got it, ladies and gentlemen. Check this out. Justice Department secures the

00:11:17.760 denaturalization of convicted gun trafficker and health care fraudster and files complaint

00:11:23.620 against marriage scammer.

00:11:25.440 Oh boy, man, I hope they circle the wagons around Ilhan.

00:11:29.900 Oh, well, circle the wagon means to protect,

00:11:31.360 but I'm saying that I hope they kettle in her and her ilk

00:11:36.780 who have committed crimes,

00:11:38.040 should they have committed these crimes, I will add.

00:11:41.320 The DOJ announced today,

00:11:42.880 and again, this is from March 26th,

00:11:44.980 it's like a couple weeks ago,

00:11:46.220 that it secured the denaturalization of two individuals

00:11:48.460 who obtained US citizenship through fraud

00:11:50.240 and sued to revoke the citizenship of a third person

00:11:52.600 that secured naturalization by marriage fraud.

00:11:56.400 If that was Ilhan Omar,

00:11:57.740 I would be particularly worried

00:11:59.620 about what is currently going on.

00:12:02.080 Trump's GOP allies in Congress

00:12:03.620 seek to turn up heat on Ilhan Omar

00:12:05.280 with ethics probe.

00:12:07.200 No guarantee or sign

00:12:08.440 the bipartisan ethics committee

00:12:09.480 will investigate the lawmaker

00:12:10.480 as the feud with Trump grows.

00:12:12.160 They certainly got their sights set on her.

00:12:14.740 And I think it's very possible

00:12:16.040 that she is going to get the boot.

00:12:18.620 Very possible, but we'll see.

00:12:20.580 In the meantime,

00:12:21.240 the fraud crackdown is real. We have individuals not from this country or illegally in this country

00:12:27.340 or defrauding our immigration system to steal money from us. CNN reports eight arrests made

00:12:33.760 in federal crackdown on alleged health care fraud in Southern California. They say five of the cases

00:12:38.940 involved hospice care centers in the cities of Glendale, Artesia, Tarzana, and Simi Valley in

00:12:45.620 the L.A. area that allegedly billed Medicare for patients that were not terminally ill and did not

00:12:49.860 qualify for hospice services. The U.S. Attorney's Office said one person was arrested in Idaho and

00:12:55.540 another in L.A. for allegedly defrauding a West Coast labor union's health care plans.

00:13:00.920 An additional person arrested in L.A. was accused of forging immigration medical documents.

00:13:06.220 The Trump admin has made California and the L.A. area in particular a focus of its national

00:13:11.380 anti-fraud efforts, alleging the Democratic-led state is failing to crack down on improper spending.

00:13:18.520 First, Assistant U.S. Attorney Bill Assaylee, a Trump appointee, called California the kingdom of fraud during a news conference announcing the charges.

00:13:26.800 Governor Gavin Newsom's office at the state has already aggressively cracked down on hospice fraud, noting that he signed a law in 2021 to stop providing new hospice licenses over fraud concerns.

00:13:35.780 The office also said the state has revoked more than 280 hospice licenses in two years and 300 providers are under investigation.

00:13:44.260 Glad the federal government is finally stepping up to do their part, Newsom wrote in a post on X.

00:13:48.080 You know what's really fascinating to me?

00:13:49.780 Just provide the care.

00:13:51.420 It's wild.

00:13:52.820 You could literally just get money from the government and hire hospice nurses and provide hospice care and get paid.

00:13:59.720 It's like an instant business.

00:14:01.400 Instead, these people are so crooked and vile that they open up empty offices, do nothing, and lie and steal money from those who would actually need it.

00:14:11.240 The admin has highlighted fraud around the country across federal benefits programs such as Medicare and Medicaid.

00:14:16.460 President Donald Trump signed an executive order in March to create an anti-fraud task force led by Vice President J.D. Vance, which met for the first time last week.

00:14:24.580 Most of the efforts have focused on states run by Democrats, though Republican-led Florida was among those asked to share more information on how they identify, prevent, and address Medicaid fraud.

00:14:35.020 We are enforcing a zero-tolerance policy for criminals who defraud American tax payers,

00:14:40.780 as Saley said in a statement.

00:14:42.300 Dr. Mehmet Oz said during a news conference that federal officials took out 221 hospices

00:14:47.060 in the last 10 weeks.

00:14:48.740 The Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services, which Oz runs, did not immediately respond

00:14:53.100 to an email.

00:14:54.080 We are going to review every single hospice in California, Oz said.

00:14:58.420 In January, Oz posted a video on social media in front of an Armenian bakery in L.A., alleging

00:15:03.780 that roughly 3.5 billion in hospice and home care front had taken place in the city, and quite a

00:15:09.060 bit of it was run by the Russian Armenian mafia. It led to a civil rights complaint by Newsom's

00:15:13.900 office, who said Oz had targeted Armenians with baseless and racially charged allegations.

00:15:19.360 Oh, my God. Are you kidding me? Oz's agency also announced that it was proposing a new

00:15:24.760 publicly available hospice scoring system using care metrics to better identify facilities that

00:15:29.260 might be illegitimate. The largest Medicare fraud case announced Thursday involved an

00:15:33.740 Artesia-based hospice center whose owner submitted more than $9 million in fraudulent hospice claims

00:15:39.280 to Medicare and was paid more than $8.5 million on those claims. It's time for a crackdown.

00:15:46.520 CBS. Hospice, where staggering 97% of terminal patients survive, is accused of defrauding

00:15:53.600 Medicare for $7.45 million. I would like $7.45 million. Look at us, honest Americans working

00:16:02.360 hard every day like suckers as these people come in and steal from the public offers and I'm paying

00:16:08.720 for it. I got to give like half my income in taxes. And then the federal government doles

00:16:13.580 this stuff out to criminals, illegal immigrants, fraudsters, and liars ripping off the backs of

00:16:20.200 our hard work. Man, I'd like to see these issues solved, my friends. They say a high survival

00:16:27.400 rated a hospice provider is one of the series, one of a series of red flags and divided by state

00:16:31.360 auditors for fraud because most people enter hospice care in the final stages of mental,

00:16:36.740 I'm sorry, a physical illness. Well, Donald Trump says a warning to five Democratic states.

00:16:44.880 the raids have already begun. So I want you guys to tell me right now. I want you guys to comment.

00:16:52.740 Tell me which states you think are first on the list. Obviously, Minnesota. We already got that

00:16:58.520 checkmark. We need to go in there. The federal government needs to go in there and start

00:17:02.760 reviewing. And I think they are all of these these immigration forms and everything they're

00:17:06.720 doing, because the rumors are the Somali community, which has been caught, individuals have been caught

00:17:11.660 shuffling cash back to Somalia, that they have created a network of fraudulent chain migration.

00:17:18.380 Not every Somali person. Some are very good people, I'm told. But there are stories like

00:17:25.300 we have with Ilhan Omar, where she's accused of marrying her brother so that he can come to the

00:17:30.160 U.S. for benefits. He ultimately did leave, I believe. But still, that makes if that story is

00:17:34.380 true, she's an immigration fraudster. And we have questions about the rest or other people in these

00:17:39.040 areas that may be doing similarly, my friend, similarly. We see that we already have this story.

00:17:45.820 We know this one. Let's see this one. We've got issues with this that I'm going to bring up here

00:17:51.800 in the context of the fraud, and that is whether or not Donald Trump's administration is doing what

00:17:57.120 the American people want to be done. Right now, fewer people are calling themselves Republicans

00:18:02.720 or Republican leaning independent since 2015. It has dropped massively. Now, take a look at this.

00:18:07.660 But in 2024, Republicans were winning. More people called themselves Republican than Democrat.

00:18:15.400 And it used to be and it's been for a long time that people called themselves Democrats, not Republicans.

00:18:19.500 But it's dropped with the Epstein files. Nobody wants to associate with the refusal to to accomplish what the American people voted for.

00:18:30.160 That is two big factors that the American people want illegal immigrants deported, but

00:18:36.820 they don't want the violence.

00:18:38.340 They don't want to see videos of guys in armor with guns pulling people out of cars who are

00:18:42.880 screaming, I you to me.

00:18:44.080 They don't.

00:18:45.620 Perhaps you can call it paradoxical, but rock in a hard place.

00:18:48.820 It is the American people do not want war with Iran.

00:18:52.160 We are here.

00:18:53.720 Maybe Trump really did need to get in there.

00:18:55.580 I don't know.

00:18:56.100 But here we go.

00:18:57.620 The point is this.

00:18:58.580 it is difficult for people right now. The costs of living are high. A pound of ground beef now

00:19:06.900 costs more than the federal minimum wage. So here's what we need to do. I think Trump will

00:19:13.600 score some points in a variety of ways. For one, he's stuck with the Iran war, and that is going

00:19:19.100 to be a major point of damage for him in the midterms and for the next Republican going into

00:19:24.400 2028. That being said, Trump needs to heavily prioritize right now getting costs down. And one

00:19:32.460 thing he can do, not the strongest thing, one thing he can do, arrest these fraudsters and

00:19:37.980 return this money to the American people. That's something he can do. The cost of living wouldn't

00:19:43.920 matter all that much if the people didn't have to give so much of their money away to the government,

00:19:48.140 which in turn gives it to fraudsters, the American people might actually feel better

00:19:54.500 and be happy to see criminals getting their comeuppance and having accountability.

00:20:01.300 But it does feel like for a lot of people with Donald Trump and this current administration,

00:20:07.480 the firing of Pam Bondi, we have not gotten what we voted for.

00:20:11.280 In fact, we've gotten things we did not vote for.

00:20:13.700 The Epstein files were a blunder.

00:20:15.020 I don't believe that is the biggest issue for the average person.

00:20:18.740 I don't.

00:20:19.480 But the Iran war is pretty bad.

00:20:21.000 And the biggest issue, of course, is the cost of living, food, shelter and all that.

00:20:27.640 It's difficult.

00:20:29.240 Gas prices are going up.

00:20:31.720 Now, maybe the Trump administration gets a swift and decisive victory in Iran.

00:20:38.440 In which case, prices will come down.

00:20:41.980 There are a lot of people saying that it's going to be bad for America and all this stuff.

00:20:44.460 Don't get me wrong, that's possible. The truth is, though, if the U.S. accomplishes their

00:20:48.720 objectives with regime change in Iran, controls Iranian energy production, it is going to get

00:20:54.420 real cheap, real fast. The bigger issue I see, though, is Gen Z. They don't view themselves

00:21:01.600 as Republicans. They're backing off. Young Gen Z, they are looking at a country where they will not

00:21:11.460 be able to own a home. They can't find meaningful work. You've got a bunch of corrupt individuals

00:21:16.640 who will never be held accountable. So why would they ever vote for the Republican Party?

00:21:22.660 Now, here's what's interesting. As much as we are seeing people drift away from Republican,

00:21:27.240 young people are drifting away from Democrat way faster than young people are from Republican.

00:21:32.020 So honestly, things will get particularly interesting as this new demographic shift

00:21:37.420 happens. In the meantime, I bring up these other factors because I want to rope this

00:21:42.100 all together and say, my friends, good things are before us. There are moves being made to

00:21:49.380 deal with the fraud and the manipulation. And when that happens, it's just step one in making

00:21:57.040 this country better for the people of this country. So let us not have black pills in our hearts.

00:22:03.400 let's have a little hopium that with J.D. Vance calling out Ilhan Omar, we might start to deal

00:22:09.380 with these corrupt Democrats. Let me put it like this. Democrats get extra seats in Congress because

00:22:14.360 of the population of illegal immigrants in this country. That's why they want them. The apportionment

00:22:19.320 for congressional seats is not based on citizenship. It's based on the amount of people, illegal or

00:22:23.600 otherwise. That's why Democrats want them. They want them to bring their children. They want them

00:22:28.540 to bring their friends and their family and their grandparents. They want it to be so that in 2030

00:22:35.440 they get to add more congressional seats. But if you were to eliminate illegal immigrants,

00:22:40.540 estimates range from as low as one upwards of 11 congressional seats would shift to the

00:22:46.660 Republican Party. So tell me, are we going in the right direction? You let me know. I'm going to

00:22:52.040 wrap it up there. Smash that like button. Share the show. Stick around. We're back tonight for

00:22:55.900 Timcast IRL. Follow me on X on Instagram at Timcast, and we will see you all then.
