Widespread Obamacare Fraud: Phony SSNs Had a 100% Success Rate for Getting Coverage, Investigation Finds

Widespread Obamacare Fraud: Phony SSNs Had a 100% Success Rate for Getting Coverage, Investigation Finds

The government watchdog also uncovered 66,000 Social Security numbers with more than a year’s worth of subsidized coverage in 2024, including one number used for the equivalent of 71 years of coverage — in a single plan year.

The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, which manages the ACA marketplace, does not block new applications using the same Social Security number, according to the report.

Additionally, 58,000 SSNs receiving benefits in 2023 matched Social Security death data, resulting in $94 million in taxpayer-funded subsidies being sent to health insurers on behalf of deceased individuals.

There's a strategy within some interpretations of Islam: peace when weak, intolerance once strong.

This pattern has played out in every country where Islam becomes the majority.

About That Retracted Climate Report …

The global warming crisis blob is eager to bullhorn any scrap of “science” to scare the industrial West into surrendering to its agenda.  - I & I Editorial Board
But it turns out that when a much-touted report was slain by error, then the metaphorical crickets...are all that can be heard...
“The Economic Commitment of Climate Change” wasn’t merely “a fatally flawed paper,” says Roger Pielke Jr., environmental studies professor, “but a flawed paper that had taken on outsized influence in climate advocacy and policy.”
  • The authors predicted that climate change would cost $38 trillion a year by 2049, estimating “that the world economy is committed to an income reduction of 19% within the next 26 years, regardless of how rapidly humanity now cuts emissions,” says Carbon Brief...
  • The authors further claimed to see clearly enough into the future to project “the global gross domestic product would be lowered by 62% by 2100.”...

Trump’s affordability crusade beats the streets with tiny truck solution.

When reliable transportation became unaffordable for average families under Biden, it trapped millions in a cycle of debt, limited job opportunities and eroded independence, turning what used to be a basic middle-class necessity into a luxury that many could no longer attain. - Amanda Head
On Wednesday, President Donald Trump announced a comprehensive reset of federal fuel economy standards, aiming to ease regulations on the auto industry to boost American manufacturing and reduce costs for consumers.
  • One vehicle in particular will benefit from such regulation reduction: the Asian sensation Kei truck...
Trump encountered the tiny tonka during his October Asia trip...
  • Multiple models would be highly marketable and profitable in the U.S. including the $14,000 Toyota Hilus, the $2,000 Micro-EVs or the $4,000 Suzuki Alto...

They were promised lucrative and stable careers if they "learned to code" and earned a degree in software engineering.

Instead, many Americans in the tech industry have been left disillusioned as they face mass layoffs and chronic unemployment — a crisis they say stems from an addiction to cheap foreign labor pipelines that are made accessible through programs like H-1B, and are touted by companies as a way to hire the "best and brightest."

It goes on to highlight the core tenets of what the Trump administration will work to achieve, including the "survival and safety" of U.S. citizens, control over our borders and freedom from "destructive propaganda and influence operations," a strong military, economy, energy grid, and a "robust industrial base."

An invasion from the start!

 


Time to Stop Pretending Renewables Are Cheap

One trope that permeates the mass media and writings by ‘climate experts’ like Michael Mann and Bill McKibben is ‘cheap’ solar and wind energy.  - Tilak Doshi
  • This is despite the debunking of the magical thinking of the ‘new’ energy economy by those who understand and respect the laws of physics and economics.
Another trope that has gained traction among green ideologues is the ‘primary energy fallacy’... 
But scratch beneath the surface, and this ‘fallacy’ reveals itself as little more than a sleight of hand, a convenient narrative to prop up costly and unreliable energy sources at the expense of economic rationality. 
Drawing on the incisive analyses of advocates of energy literacy such as Lars Schernikau and Ronald Stein, it’s clear that the real distortion lies in ignoring the full system-level costs and inefficiencies of wind and solar as well as the multiple uses of oil and gas as feedstock for myriad products...
  • Selected materials required by electricity generation technology. Source: Schernikau based on Department of Energy, USA. See also here...

Obama also killed Anwar al-Awlaki, an American citizen, by droning him on 9/30/2011.

Two weeks later, he had Al-Awlaki's 16 year old son (also an American citizen) droned to death. - Tom Scharre 
  • Neither one received the "due process" currently demanded.

  • Military analysts around the world predicted Kyiv would fall within seventy-two hours in February 2022. It never did. 
  • The media lined up to predict that “Harry Potter” would flop because kids no longer read. Harry Potter sold half a billion copies.
These were not fringe voices. 
These were the crowned heads of their domains, credentialed, lauded, confident experts. 
Their expertise was real, but their predictions were wrong.
  • Why are experts so often and so publicly wrong?...

Under Secretary of State Sarah B. Rogers just detonated Europe’s “no censorship here” myth...

...and she did it while traveling on a diplomatic passport so she could say what ordinary Europeans are literally not allowed to say: - Donald Trump For President
"I...noticed that a member of European Parliament called Helmut Brandstetter tweeted, quote, "There's no censorship in Europe. 
Everyone has to follow our rules."... 
  • So, as I tweeted a few moments ago, a German woman notoriously received a harsher jail sentence than a convicted rapist after the woman called the rapist, quote, "a disgraceful pig." 
  • This was after he participated along with several other disgraceful pigs in the gang r*pe of a 15-year-old girl in a public park. 
  • Similarly, a British woman was dragged out of her bath by 11 police officers after she referred in a private text message to a man who allegedly violently assaulted her as, quote, "a f*ggot."...

Wy do dems elect the most moronic fools as their political voice?

If you want to know how conservatives should think about media ownership policy, a good starting point is to head opposite the people who think that President Trump and Federal Communications Commission Chairman Brendan Carr are “autocratic,” “fascist,” and engaged in “mob-style government.” Those are charges levied in recent comments from Free Press, a left-wing nonprofit opposing the proposed reforms to the FCC’s rules capping ownership of broadcast stations.
