Whistleblower Claims Somalians Committed Mass Medicaid Fraud In Maine

/0 Comments/in , /by

A Somali-owned company may have defrauded Maine in a manner similar to schemes that ripped off at least $1 billion from Minnesota, a whistleblower told NewsNation Monday.

Christopher Bernardini, a former “billing guru” at Gateway Community Services, said that the company falsified documents to obtain payment from Maine’s Medicaid program for services to low-income and disabled clients, NewsNation reported. Abdullahi Ali, the owner of the company, reportedly ran for office in Jubaland, a region of Somalia, and boasted about funding a militia there, according to The Maine Wire.

“I have a passion for helping people and I thought that we were doing the right thing this whole time,” Bernardini told NewsNation, later adding, “When I had clients calling me to tell me their staff hadn’t shown up and I was told to bill those hours anyway. It just got worse and worse until I started really putting up a stink.”

Bernardini told NewsNation that an electronic monitoring system intended to track field staff was manipulated to make it appear the clients were visited when staff actually failed to show up.

Gateway Community Services received $28.8 million in Medicaid funds from Maine, according to documents obtained by The Maine Wire via a Freedom of Access Act request. (Read more from “Whistleblower Claims Somalians Committed Mass Medicaid Fraud In Maine” HERE)

Toddler Among Victims as Pepper-Spray-Wielding Thieves Injure 21 at Major Airport

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Police arrested a 31-year-old man Sunday at a London airport following a robbery in which 21 people — including a 3-year-old child — were pepper-sprayed and required medical treatment, officials said.

The morning incident happened at Heathrow Airport’s parking garage when a group of four men stole a woman’s suitcase in an elevator and sprayed an irritant at her, the Metropolitan Police said.

“A woman was robbed of her suitcase by a group of four men, who sprayed a substance believed to be pepper spray in her direction,” Commander Peter Stevens said in a statement, adding that passengers in the elevator and surrounding area were also affected.

Police said the suspects then fled the elevator following the incident. They appeared to be three young men dressed in all black with their heads covered, The Associated Press (AP) reported, citing a witness.

Video captured a swarm of officers rushing to the scene of the assault, visibly carrying large firearms as they navigated the multi-story parking garage. (Read more from “Toddler Among Victims as Pepper-Spray-Wielding Thieves Injure 21 at Major Airport” HERE)

Zelensky Says He Still Has One Big Unanswered Question in Ukraine-Russia Peace Deal

/0 Comments/in , /by

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said Monday that one key question remains unanswered as the Trump administration works to hammer out a peace deal end the war in Ukraine.

As President Trump pushes for a cease-fire deal to end Russia’s nearly four year invasion, Zelensky maintained that the US and its allies have yet to offer clear details on what security guarantees would be granted to Ukraine to protect it from future aggression.

“There is one question I — and all Ukrainians — want to get an answer to: if Russia again starts a war, what will our partners do?” Zelensky told Bloomberg.

The main disagreements in the peace deal involve Russia’s maximalist demands that Ukraine shrink its military, totally cede the contested Donbas region and give up any hopes of joining NATO.

“There are visions of the US, Russia and Ukraine — and we don’t have a unified view on Donbas,” Zelensky said. (Read more from “Zelensky Says He Still Has One Big Unanswered Question in Ukraine-Russia Peace Deal” HERE)

‘Criminal Illegal Alien’ Mom of Karoline Leavitt’s Nephew Set to Be Released From ICE Detention

/0 Comments/in , /by

The mother of White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt’s nephew was ordered released from an immigration detention facility in Louisiana on Monday — nearly two weeks after she was nabbed in Massachusetts.

Bruna Caroline Ferreira was detained by agents with Immigration and Customs Enforcement while she was en route to pick up her son from school on Nov. 26.

An immigration judge ordered her released on a $1,500 bond, even though the Department of Homeland Security labeled her a “criminal illegal alien.”

Ferreira was working toward obtaining her green card, her attorney Todd Pomerleau said. She was born in Brazil, but was previously permitted to stay in the US under the Obama-era DACA law, the lawyer added.

Pomerleau told ABC News that Ferreira is expected to be released on Monday or Tuesday.

A DHS spokesperson previously said that Ferreira had a criminal record with an arrest for battery plus an overstay on a visa that expired in June 1999. (Read more from “‘Criminal Illegal Alien’ Mom of Karoline Leavitt’s Nephew Set to Be Released From ICE Detention” HERE)

Trump Says Marjorie Taylor Greene ‘Not America First or MAGA’

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Donald Trump on Monday reacted to Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene’s (R-GA) interview on 60 Minutes, asserting that the lawmaker is “not AMERICA FIRST or MAGA.”

Greene announced in November that she would be resigning from Congress come January, asserting that “nothing ever gets better” for regular Americans.

Since then, Greene has continued to speak out, making waves during an interview on 60 Minutes, identifying herself as “America first.” Trump, however, is not buying it.

“The only reason Marjorie ‘Traitor’ Brown (Green turns Brown under stress!) went BAD is that she was JILTED by the President of the United States (Certainly not the first time she has been jilted!). Too much work, not enough time, and her ideas are, NOW, really BAD,” Trump said, claiming that Greene reminds him of a “Rotten Apple.”

“Marjorie is not AMERICA FIRST or MAGA, because nobody could have changed her views so fast, and her new views are those of a very dumb person,” Trump said, continuing:

That was proven last night when washed up, Trump hating, 60 Minutes “correspondent,” Lesley Stahl, who still owes me an apology from when she attacked me on the show (with serious conviction!), that Hunter Biden’s LAPTOP FROM HELL was produced by Russia, not Hunter himself (TOTALLY PROVEN WRONG!), interviewed a very poorly prepared Traitor, who in her confusion made many really stupid statements. My real problem with the show, however, wasn’t the low IQ traitor, it was that the new ownership of 60 Minutes, Paramount, would allow a show like this to air. THEY ARE NO BETTER THAN THE OLD OWNERSHIP, who just paid me millions of Dollars for FAKE REPORTING about your favorite President, ME! Since they bought it, 60 Minutes has actually gotten WORSE! Oh well, far worse things can happen. P.S. I hereby demand a complete and total APOLOGY, though far too late to be meaningful, from Lesley Stahl and 60 Minutes for her incorrect and Libelous statements about Hunter’s Laptop!!! President DJT

Republicans ‘Bringing a Number’ of Healthcare Bills to House Floor in ‘the Next Few Weeks’

/0 Comments/in , /by

House Majority Leader Steve Scalise explained on Friday that House Republicans are introducing a series of healthcare bills that would alleviate the high costs that have arisen thanks to Obamacare.

Scalise joined the Ruthless podcast to discuss how House Republicans are working to lower prices. As a part of these efforts, he said Republicans will bring forth many bills that seek to lower healthcare costs, although it remains unclear if it will be one large healthcare reform package or a series of bills.

He said:

We’re bringing a number of bills to the floor in the next few weeks… I was meeting with the Doctors Caucus. I met with every different group, along with the three chairmen of the committees of Jurisdiction. Energy and Commerce has been working on a lot of really big things. Ways and Means Committee, the Education and Workforce Committee. They’ve all been working on different pieces to do things like association health plans… There’s no competition in health insurance. Really no transparency either. Imagine bringing those elements in.

President Donald Trump on Tuesday shared a text that Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) had sent him, urging the president to back legislation that would make it easier to establish Association Health Plans (AHPs), which allow individuals to buy health insurance via a membership such as Amazon, Sam’s Club, or Costco.

MTG Alleges Trump Fueled Death Threats After Public Fallout Over Epstein Files

/0 Comments/in , /by

Former Trump ally and outgoing Republican Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene alleged in a “60 Minutes” interview that several threats against her family began shortly after President Donald Trump publicly branded her a “traitor.”

The Georgia lawmaker, who will leave Congress in January 2026, told CBS’s Lesley Stahl that the situation escalated after Trump withdrew his support for her reelection bid. Greene announced her upcoming resignation on Nov. 21, one week after Trump publicly cut ties with her politically.

According to Greene, a pipe bomb threat was made against her home, followed by what she described as “direct death threats” aimed at one of her adult sons. “After President Trump called me a traitor, I got a pipe bomb threat on my house. And then I got several direct death threats on my son,” she said. She did not previously mention threats to her son in public statements, including a Nov. 15 social media post referencing a “hot bed of threats” but offering no specifics.

Greene told Stahl that the threatening messages included the label “Marjorie Traitor Greene,” the same nickname Trump used on Nov. 16 when asked by a reporter about her earlier criticisms. At the time, Trump dismissed concerns about her safety, saying, “I don’t think her life is in danger. Frankly, I don’t think anybody cares about her.”

During the interview, Greene argued that the threats were “directly fueled” by the president’s rhetoric. She said she alerted both Trump and Vice President JD Vance, sharing the threats with them directly. Vance, she said, responded that he would “look into it.” She added that Trump also replied, but described his message only as “extremely unkind.”

The congresswoman also claimed other Republican lawmakers have taken note of her break with the president. Asked whether members of her party speak differently about Trump in private, Greene said their private remarks would “shock people.” She described colleagues who once mocked Trump but shifted to supporting him publicly after he secured the 2024 GOP nomination.

Greene further said that part of her falling-out with Trump stemmed from her push to release documents related to the Jeffrey Epstein case. She signed a discharge petition to force a vote on the “Epstein Files Transparency Act,” which ultimately passed with overwhelming bipartisan support and was signed by Trump on Nov. 19. Greene said Trump had opposed her efforts at first, arguing that releasing the documents would “hurt people,” though she said he did not specify whom he meant.

Stahl asked whether Republican lawmakers fear backlash from Trump’s supporters or from the president himself. Greene responded that many are reluctant to speak out because they fear public attacks from Trump, saying, “I think they’re terrified to step outta line and get a nasty Truth Social post on them.”

Greene’s resignation will take effect at the start of 2026, leaving her safely Republican district without its most controversial representative for the first time in six years.

Mystery Deepens as to Why It Took FBI Over 5 Years to Finally Bust the Suspected J6 Pipe Bomber

/0 Comments/in , /by

The arrest of the alleged J6 pipe bomber just lumps mystery on top of mystery.

What we know from court documents and media reports since his arrest Thursday is that suspect Brian Cole Jr., is a black, 30-year-old loner who lives in his mom’s basement in the middle-class suburb of Woodbridge, Va., a 20-minute drive from Washington, DC. According to his family, he is borderline autistic, and incapable of such a crime. . .

Yet we are told this alleged criminal mastermind evaded the FBI for almost five years.

But surely there’s more to it than that. Patel hinted on Friday at a reason the FBI under Wray during the Biden administration may not have wanted to solve the case: “intentional negligence.”

This, after all, was the FBI that managed to round up and charge 1,500 Trump supporters who set foot anywhere vaguely near the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, tracking them down through cellphone pings and video footage.

Yet, with all their technical ability, Wray’s FBI somehow missed the phone used by the suspect in the vicinity of the Democratic National Committee and Republican National Committee on the evening of Jan. 5 when the pipe bombs were planted. Surveillance footage shows the suspect, wearing a gray hoodie and COVID-style white mask, seemingly talking on the phone while walking around that night less than half a mile from the Capitol.

Top Trending Google Search Of 2025 Revealed

/0 Comments/in , /by

Google revealed that assassinated Turning Point USA (TPUSA) founder Charlie Kirk was the top trending search on its engine for 2025.

Google announced that Kirk beat out other search queries such as Democratic mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani of New York City, the Netflix film “K-Pop Demon Hunters,” the iPhone 17 and the 43-day fall government shutdown. Authorities arrested Tyler Robinson, 22, early in the morning of Sept. 12, accusing him of fatally shooting Kirk during a TPUSA event at Utah Valley University two days earlier.

Kirk’s assassination was the third-most searched item for when it came to news, according to Google’s Year in Search 2025 report. It drew more searches than the wildfires that tore through the Los Angeles area in January, the selection of the new pope by the Roman Catholic Church, the Jeffey Epstein files, President Donald Trump’s inauguration for his second term, and the tariffs Trump imposed in April.

Kirk was also the top search when it came to those who passed away, ranking ahead of notable people like actors Michelle Trachtenberg, Val Kilmer, Gene Hackman and Diane Keaton, wrestler Hulk Hogan, Pope Francis and Food Network host Anne Burrell.

Kirk’s widow, Erika, who succeeded her late husband as CEO of the conservative student group, ranked fourth in trends for people, beating out Pope Leo XIV, Cleveland Browns quarterback Shedeur Sanders, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt and ABC late-night talk show host Jimmy Kimmel. Robinson, the TPUSA founder’s alleged assassin, ranked second among trending people on Google in 2025. (Read more from “Top Trending Google Search Of 2025 Revealed” HERE)

Trump Explodes After Pardoned Texas Rep. Cuellar Launches Reelection Bid As Dem

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Donald Trump ripped into Democratic Texas Rep. Henry Cuellar on Sunday after the lawmaker said he will seek reelection as part of the Democratic Party despite Trump pardoning him and his wife, Imelda.

Cuellar said Wednesday he will seek reelection as a Democrat, confirming the decision just hours after Trump pardoned him and his wife. In a Sunday post on Truth Social, Trump said Democrats during the Biden administration spent years trying to destroy Cuellar and his family through what he described as aggressive and politically motivated prosecutions.

“Can you imagine??? The Democrats, under the Crooked Joe Biden Administration, who always use extreme force and jail-time to destroy their political opponent, wanted to put Congressman Henry Cuellar, and his wife, Imelda, in PRISON, for 15 years, which I predicted these Radical Left Lunatics would do,” Trump wrote. “And they never stopped wanting to fulfill this evil quest! The Dems mercilessly went after Henry with everything they had!”

Trump said Democrats viciously targeted Cuellar and his family long after losing the 2024 election.

“They were looking to destroy him, his lovely wife, his two young daughters, and anyone close to them. When the Democrats overwhelmingly lost the 2024 Presidential Election, and power with it, they, regardless, did everything they could to keep going after the Cuellar family. The Dems were vicious, and all because Henry strongly wanted, correctly, BORDER SECURITY! He was against illegals pouring into our Country, totally unchecked and unvetted.” (Read more from “Trump Explodes After Pardoned Texas Rep. Cuellar Launches Reelection Bid As Dem” HERE)
