MAGAts and their so called Republican enablers claim that all Medicaid cuts will come from removal of Waste Fraud and Abuse from the program.

Since fraud is a crime, when is the DoJ going to announce indictments for the first fraud case?

AI-my bold added
Information suggests that there haven't been specific fraud indictments resulting from the work of Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) that are widely reported in the news. However, there is ongoing interest in the issue of government fraud and efficiency, which DOGE was established to address.
America may never recover from the first 6 months this presidency.
Do you trust what DOGE did with your SS info?
Do you find it unusual that there was apparently no fraud waste or abuse in Elon's government contracts?
Are you concerned about the influence of Palantir on our futures?
The only good part of this whole shitshow is going to be watching the red states wake up to how ****ed they are by this bill. But even that won't be satisfying because of the harm to the nation in its entirety.

However, the available information does indicate that recent cuts in clean energy programs may have a significant impact on red states:
  • Tax credits for wind and solar projects are being phased out, which could jeopardize investments and jobs in Republican-led states where these projects were concentrated.
  • A substantial amount of clean energy investments under previous legislation (like the IRA) had flowed to Republican districts.
  • Estimates suggest a large percentage (potentially around 80%) of clean energy investments have gone to projects in Republican congressional districts.
  • On a per-person basis, red states were receiving significantly higher monetary investment in clean energy compared to blue states.
In summary, while a precise percentage of cuts impacting programs that primarily benefit red states is not provided in the search results, there's a strong indication that recent legislative changes targeting clean energy programs will have substantial consequences for investments and economic benefits in Republican-leaning states.
 
This got zero traction the first time I posted...I'll try again.
