IT'S OFFICIAL: President Trump just launched a PROPERTY SEIZURE against 3rd world-linked fraudsters in Minnesota, moving to take half a city block in Minneapolis — which it says was bought with money stolen from programs meant to feed hungry
NICK SHIRLEY is there for the announcement!
"We have filed a civil forfeiture complaint to take back that property for the American people."
It targets three adjacent properties tied to the Feeding Our Future scandal
That scheme stole $250 MILLION meant for children's meals, and prosecutors say only about $60 million has been recovered so far
And @nickshirleyy has exposed even more, just with his camera.
JUST IN: Nick Shirley just dropped this line in the Oval Office flanked by President Trump, and it's PURE GOLD
"I want people to think about what is happening right now...me as a 24-year-old, I went out and exposed the fraud. I just was concerned about the well-being of our tax dollars. And right now, I'm standing next to the President of the United States."
"There's never been an incentive for anyone to ever expose fraud [until now]...when you expose fraud, you help save America. People understand that these fraudsters take from the poor needy who actually need the services that we all work hard to pay for, and we take that, and they then buy Mercedes!" @nickshirleyy
WELL-DESERVED FOR NICK.
A year ago, legacy media mocked him as a right-wing propagandist
Today he walked into the Oval Office with the first check for exposing fraud that the media IGNORED!!
Camera, microphone and passion for saving America. Let's freaking go.
BREAKING: Nick Shirley, at 24, just stood next to the President of the United States and called out the media to its face.
He exposed the Minnesota fraud with a camera, and the press didn't go after the fraudsters. His words: "When I expose fraud, instead the mainstream media investigating the fraud, they investigated me."
He says people actually wanted to kill him for it.
Trump said what we're all thinking: "They went after you instead of the fraudster. I'm not surprised."
Shirley says the fraudsters bought Mercedes and sent our money overseas. Now regular Americans get paid to stop them.
One kid did the media's job. Now they're the story.
NOW: Donald Trump is going full NICK SHIRLEY MODE in the Oval Office, saying his work to expose Somalis in Minnesota resulted in a FLURRY of arrests
One young man with a camera did more than Minnesota's entire state government did in years.
"Partially as a result of Nick's work...115 Minnesota fraudsters have been arrested in charged! The governor is 100% GUILTY!"
This is AMAZING, @nickshirleyy!
Huge win for citizen journalism!
BREAKING: The feds just moved to seize half a city block in Minneapolis, reportedly bought with stolen SNAP money.
Per the White House fraud task force, DOJ's new National Fraud Division filed yesterday to take back property that was fraudulently bought with food stamp dollars meant for hungry Minnesotans.
Then the speaker turned to the press in the room: "None of your outlets reported it. It took one brave kid and a camera."
That learning center was cited hundreds of times, and the legacy media sat on it for years.
Nick Shirley did their job for free. Now Trump is taking the money back, one city block at a time.
Nick Shirley, in the Oval Office, just made CRYSTAL CLEAR why Gavin Newsom is targeting him with the Stop Nick Shirley Act
"In California, they actually NEED the fraud. That's why when I exposed the fraud in Minnesota, California, instead of going after the fraudsters, they came after me."
"And the reason why they're attacking me is because I'm going after what funnels and funds all these crazy delusional ideas inside their states."
"With this law dubbed the Stop Nick Shirley Act, it will give somebody who's enrolled in this program who works inside of immigration support service providers, they can then give me a piece of paper and say, I cannot publish that video. So it's a direct violation of the First Amendment."

He asked why anyone would take 1% when the False Claims Act already pays whistleblowers 10% to 25%.
JD Vance shut it down on the spot: "It's a fundamentally dishonest question because over 90% of the fraud that we are finding in the federal government isn't covered by the False Claims Act."
So the old law covers a sliver, and Trump's program covers all of it.
Trump also added that 1% of a fraud that may run into the trillions still makes people millions.
That gotcha came from somebody who didn't do his homework.

From the podium: "If you're a middle class taxpayer in this country, before President Trump came along, you spent half your working life paying for fraudsters and scammers."
Think about that. You paid every parking ticket and did everything the right way. Meanwhile, fake day cares billed for kids who didn't exist, and the crooks bought Mercedes, BMWs and mansions on your dime.
The administration says it's already recovered a quarter of a trillion dollars and is aiming for a trillion.
The looting is over. Time to take it all back.

More. THERE IT IS!
Flushing is ground zero. Dr. Oz toured the neighborhood recently and pointed to 64 adult day care centers and a dense cluster of pharmacies tied to suspicious Medicaid billing
In February, two Flushing men were charged with a $120 MILLION Medicare and Medicaid scheme run through a pharmacy and adult day cares
I spot a trend!
New York is FULL OF FRAUD https://x.com/ScooterCasterNY/status/2112569266897592461/video/1

Yes, multiple reports confirm it. CBS News and an FBI spokesperson state federal agents are conducting operations across Queens, Brooklyn, and Staten Island today tied to alleged healthcare fraud. Agents were observed in Flushing removing evidence boxes from senior/adult day care sites. The February charges against two Flushing men in a $120 million Medicare/Medicaid scheme via pharmacy and day cares are documented, as is the dense cluster of 64 such centers there flagged by Dr. Oz.

Per Oz, moms were being bribed $1,500 a kid to falsely claim their child had autism. Those kids got saddled with a fake diagnosis, and real families who needed help got shoved aside.
Oz said it plainly: "Fraud does not just steal our money. Fraud steals people's lives."
After Nick Shirley's reporting, CMS found that a third of all providers in Minnesota's 14 high-risk areas couldn't be validated. Dozens of cases are now underway.
They used sick kids as a piggy bank. Lock up every last one of them.

Specifically, because they found California is paying people to literally CARRY GROCERIES upstairs for their OWN MOTHERS, and billing the federal government for it under "personal care services"
That's INSANE.
"California has been growing that program 24% in the last THREE YEARS. That is TWICE the rate of every other state average in the country."
"Impossible for us to understand how that could be."
"Many of you would carry groceries upstairs for your mom for free, I would think. But in California, they'll pay you a LOT of money for it."
"So we're taking major action in California. Again, $1. 2 billion deferred in their Medicaid payments directed to personal care services."

This is indeed good. It's to Trump's credit.
What I'd like to see is the same legal procedure followed to seize the entirety of Israel.
