A new analysis of nearly 4,000 Medicaid members reveals a sobering truth about what happens after the prescription is filled: the drugs only work if patients keep taking them, and most do not.

@SDNYnews @grok does the phrase “super intelligence” appear anywhere in the actual indictment of this case? Or is it just in the press release to please Donald Trump?

[Secretary Brooke Rollins @SecRollins]

🚨 TUESDAY TAKEDOWN 🚨  

He stole a deceased 14-year-old child’s identity and used it for 25 YEARS to collect nearly $300,000 in government benefits — including $12,000 in SNAP.  

His true identity is STILL UNKNOWN. Now, he’s been sentenced to 61 months in federal prison and ordered to repay $283,977.40.  

Thanks to USDA’s Office of Inspector General, @TheJusticeDept, and our investigative partners for bringing him to justice.  

Under @POTUS, we have ZERO tolerance for fraud. We’re fighting to stop it before taxpayer dollars go out the door.  

Justice served.

Former Federal Employee Pleads Guilty to Defrauding the Federal Government of Approximately $194 MILLION: Scheme Included the Fraudulent Acquisition of Tens of Millions of Dollars in Gold Bars and Luxury Properties in Florida

“Federal employees are entrusted with serving the American people, not themselves,” said @AGToddBlanche. “The Trump Administration is committed to rooting out waste, fraud, and abuse in the federal government, including by prosecuting those who foolishly defraud American taxpayers.”

Former TD Bank Employee Pleads Guilty to Accepting Bribes, Laundering $4.8 Million to Colombia

“The Criminal Division is at the vanguard of protecting the security of the U.S. financial system, including against bank insiders,” said @AAGDuva. “Gerardo Aquino abused his position of trust at TD Bank and enriched himself in the process. Bank insiders who facilitate money laundering and illegal activity for criminal organizations play a critical role for that organization and abuse our financial system. When that happens, these insiders will be investigated and prosecuted.”

ICE is now selling seven warehouses it bought to use as detention centers.

The agency spent more than $700 million acquiring the properties, and it might have to sell at a loss, wasting millions of taxpayer dollars.

A new HHS review identified six forms of fraud in the Unaccompanied Alien Children (UAC) Program during the Biden administration which contributed to children being placed in unsafe situations.

HHS is prioritizing child safety by rooting out fraud and strengthening sponsor vetting and oversight for the UAC program.
