The Obamacare subsidy fight exposes who Washington really serves | Blaze Media: 

That is how entitlement traps operate. For decades, big-government advocates have followed a reliable strategy. They create a benefit for a defined group, allow costs to spiral, then dare the opposition to take something away from a newly entrenched constituency. When the moment arrives, those who claim to favor limited government retreat or propose cosmetic reforms that leave the core system untouched. That dynamic explains why the country remains locked into the socialist ratchet, the uniparty routine, and a political class that acts as tax collector for an ever-expanding welfare state.

RIP Scott.

Minnesota's Fraud Scandal Deepens as New Audit Reveals Document Fabrication and Cover-Up

Minnesota's Fraud Scandal Deepens as New Audit Reveals Document Fabrication and Cover-Up: 

The massive fraud scandal that has plagued Minnesota under Governor Tim Walz just got significantly worse. A scathing new audit released this week reveals that the state's Department of Human Services (DHS) fabricated documents after an investigation began, pointing to what Republican House Speaker Lisa DeMuth called "a culture of pervasive fraud, negligence, and deception."

The audit found that DHS distributed more than $425 million in grants to 830 organizations—primarily non-governmental groups serving people with addiction and mental health issues—without proper oversight. Auditors discovered missing progress reports, incomplete monitoring visits, and most troubling, what appeared to be backdated or newly created documentation that didn't exist before the audit commenced.

Europe Should Be Begging Trump to Buy Greenland

But the historical record and geopolitical reality suggest that acquiring the island territory would be not only fair compensation for American involvement in Europe since the start of World War II, but also a critical check against encroaching Chinese and Russian influence in the Arctic.

Trump’s latest quip that Greenland’s defense is “two dog sleds” has the global liberal media tripping over itself to “fact-check” this obvious hyperbole and declare Trump an evil imperialist. 

But Trump is only highlighting a glaring security lapse in what is fast becoming one of the most important regions on the planet. 

• It doesn’t require anything more than basic common sense to understand that Denmark, Europe, the United States, and the entire free world would be better off if Washington, rather than Copenhagen, took the lead on defending Greenland...

House Dem Tries to Shift Attention Away from Alleged Somali Fraud, Wants More Focus on 'White Men' Crimes

House Dem Tries to Shift Attention Away from Alleged Somali Fraud, Wants More Focus on 'White Men' Crimes: 

Politically, her attempt at deflection is not the least bit surprising. Faced with allegations that their immigrants may have stolen billions from taxpayers, Democrats are eager to change the subject. After years of blaming, lecturing, and alienating large segments of the electorate, Democrats have struggled to maintain support among many American voters, particularly young white men.

Left-wing reporter facing congressional subpoena after doxxing Delta Force commander * WorldNetDaily * by Andi Shae Napier, Daily Caller News Foundation: 

The House Oversight Committee voted on Wednesday to subpoena Rolling Stone contributing editor Seth Harp after he shared a picture and biography of a Delta Force commander that he said played a central role in the recent U.S. military operation in Venezuela.

Harp posted the commander's biography — which included the officer's first and last name and the fact he had a wife and five daughters — to X Sunday. The journalist later claimed X locked his account until he deleted the post, according to a Monday statement he posted on the social media platform.
