WEBVTT - REPUBLICANS TURNED ON US...AGAIN

0:00:01.040 --> 0:00:02.440
<v Speaker 1>Welcome to the Rogue Recap.

0:00:03.000 --> 0:00:07.560
<v Speaker 2>Hot takes, cold facts and zero respect for the official narrative.

0:00:08.480 --> 0:00:12.719
<v Speaker 2>Sit back, roll your eyes, and let's recap rogue style.

0:00:15.480 --> 0:00:19.000
<v Speaker 2>Oh welcome everybody. It is Tuesday, March tenth, to the

0:00:19.120 --> 0:00:23.240
<v Speaker 2>Rogue Recap. So sorry I missed you yesterday. I actually

0:00:23.360 --> 0:00:29.000
<v Speaker 2>was invited to the Broadcasters Foundation of America and they

0:00:29.120 --> 0:00:33.040
<v Speaker 2>were giving out two really big awards I guess actually four,

0:00:33.520 --> 0:00:36.519
<v Speaker 2>but two to people that I'm somewhat familiar with. One

0:00:36.560 --> 0:00:40.440
<v Speaker 2>was Stephen A. Smith. He was awarded Personality of the Year,

0:00:40.680 --> 0:00:45.360
<v Speaker 2>and Judge Judy got a really cool lifetime award. And

0:00:45.440 --> 0:00:47.559
<v Speaker 2>she got up and she gave a speech, and I

0:00:47.640 --> 0:00:54.160
<v Speaker 2>have to say it was pretty interesting. She really is fun.

0:00:55.240 --> 0:00:57.480
<v Speaker 2>That sounds so simple, right, but she just was fun.

0:00:57.520 --> 0:00:59.840
<v Speaker 2>Like she's this little tiny thing. I don't know if

0:00:59.840 --> 0:01:03.720
<v Speaker 2>she even five feet tall, and she's eighty two years old.

0:01:03.760 --> 0:01:06.840
<v Speaker 2>She doesn't look it, and she's just a spitfire. She

0:01:06.920 --> 0:01:09.480
<v Speaker 2>got up and she gave like a funny introduction about

0:01:09.880 --> 0:01:12.000
<v Speaker 2>one of the cases that she had when she was

0:01:12.080 --> 0:01:14.600
<v Speaker 2>on the bench. She actually was a family court judge

0:01:14.640 --> 0:01:17.360
<v Speaker 2>for gosh, I think twenty five years in New York

0:01:17.400 --> 0:01:20.240
<v Speaker 2>family court. So I honestly cannot imagine the things that

0:01:20.280 --> 0:01:24.319
<v Speaker 2>she saw, but just really interesting to see her speak

0:01:24.520 --> 0:01:27.280
<v Speaker 2>talk about what it was like. You know, she mentioned

0:01:27.319 --> 0:01:30.520
<v Speaker 2>that in her like primary and middle school and then

0:01:30.560 --> 0:01:32.399
<v Speaker 2>high school years, she really wasn't that great of a

0:01:32.440 --> 0:01:37.040
<v Speaker 2>student and didn't actually find her footing as far as

0:01:37.080 --> 0:01:39.200
<v Speaker 2>being a student and being a good student for that matter,

0:01:39.680 --> 0:01:42.280
<v Speaker 2>until she until she got to law school, and how

0:01:42.319 --> 0:01:45.120
<v Speaker 2>she just fell in love with the law and it

0:01:45.240 --> 0:01:48.840
<v Speaker 2>just became her life, which I thought was so cool.

0:01:49.160 --> 0:01:51.800
<v Speaker 2>And of course stephen A Steven as a friend. I've

0:01:51.800 --> 0:01:55.000
<v Speaker 2>known stephen A for many years and it was great

0:01:55.040 --> 0:01:57.400
<v Speaker 2>to see him win Personality of the Year. And he

0:01:57.600 --> 0:02:01.160
<v Speaker 2>certainly is a personality and he's ran ubunctious and verbose

0:02:01.240 --> 0:02:04.040
<v Speaker 2>and wild and loud, and that's why people love him.

0:02:04.040 --> 0:02:07.440
<v Speaker 2>And he was very very sweet and kind and you know,

0:02:07.600 --> 0:02:09.880
<v Speaker 2>gave up all his glory to God first and then

0:02:09.960 --> 0:02:13.000
<v Speaker 2>thanked his mother, who passed away some years ago. And

0:02:13.360 --> 0:02:15.320
<v Speaker 2>he was raised in a single family home, so he

0:02:15.400 --> 0:02:19.000
<v Speaker 2>really really like honors everything. It always goes back to

0:02:19.040 --> 0:02:21.680
<v Speaker 2>his mom. But just really nice. But that was why

0:02:21.680 --> 0:02:23.560
<v Speaker 2>I didn't do a podcast yesterday because it was a

0:02:23.560 --> 0:02:26.920
<v Speaker 2>crazy day. And then getting over there, so but really

0:02:26.919 --> 0:02:28.399
<v Speaker 2>fun to be a part of it. Good to see

0:02:28.480 --> 0:02:32.080
<v Speaker 2>lots of folks from many networks left and right in

0:02:32.160 --> 0:02:35.600
<v Speaker 2>the room. So oh, and then one really cool thing.

0:02:36.040 --> 0:02:39.800
<v Speaker 2>They had the saxophone player from Billy Joel who did

0:02:40.000 --> 0:02:43.440
<v Speaker 2>probably like two or three songs and he has His

0:02:43.520 --> 0:02:46.720
<v Speaker 2>name was Mark Rivera and he had a beautiful voice

0:02:47.440 --> 0:02:49.919
<v Speaker 2>very similar to Billy Joel. It was kind of weird

0:02:50.440 --> 0:02:52.600
<v Speaker 2>how much he sounded like him, but I guess, you know,

0:02:52.639 --> 0:02:54.840
<v Speaker 2>he's been touring with him for forty years or something,

0:02:54.919 --> 0:02:57.640
<v Speaker 2>so I think when you tour that often and that

0:02:57.919 --> 0:03:00.560
<v Speaker 2>I guess that frequently was someone for that man decades,

0:03:00.639 --> 0:03:03.200
<v Speaker 2>you start to pick up some things. But it was

0:03:03.320 --> 0:03:06.760
<v Speaker 2>I was like, wow, you really sound like him. But AnyWho,

0:03:06.760 --> 0:03:10.280
<v Speaker 2>here we are Tuesday, and I have to talk about

0:03:10.320 --> 0:03:14.440
<v Speaker 2>something that is getting absolutely no attention. So there was

0:03:14.440 --> 0:03:19.040
<v Speaker 2>a vote in the Senate and the vote was whether

0:03:19.160 --> 0:03:25.120
<v Speaker 2>or not to continue to fund welfare for refugees. And

0:03:25.960 --> 0:03:29.520
<v Speaker 2>we have I truly can't believe I'm going to say this.

0:03:29.560 --> 0:03:35.880
<v Speaker 2>We have all of these senators who are voting to

0:03:36.000 --> 0:03:40.200
<v Speaker 2>continue to fund Somali welfare fraud, and I am like,

0:03:40.600 --> 0:03:43.520
<v Speaker 2>you have got to be kidding me, there's all these

0:03:43.520 --> 0:03:47.080
<v Speaker 2>senators and I'm just going to list them off because

0:03:47.560 --> 0:03:49.280
<v Speaker 2>I think that they should be listed off. And I

0:03:49.320 --> 0:03:54.600
<v Speaker 2>think it's horrible that these are Republican senators, people who

0:03:54.680 --> 0:03:59.119
<v Speaker 2>say that they stand with the president after everything that

0:03:59.200 --> 0:04:03.480
<v Speaker 2>we saw in Minnesota, after everything that we have heard

0:04:03.600 --> 0:04:08.000
<v Speaker 2>from the president, the hearing when they had Governor Walls

0:04:08.040 --> 0:04:10.040
<v Speaker 2>come before them, which we're going to play a little

0:04:10.040 --> 0:04:14.040
<v Speaker 2>bit of that today, and the House Oversight Committee, you know,

0:04:14.160 --> 0:04:19.040
<v Speaker 2>doing these ridiculous excuses for the amount of money laundering

0:04:19.440 --> 0:04:22.000
<v Speaker 2>and fraud that has gone on in this state, specifically

0:04:22.040 --> 0:04:27.200
<v Speaker 2>with regard to quote unquote refugee welfare and how almost

0:04:27.240 --> 0:04:30.080
<v Speaker 2>every single person that's come in from Somalia is on

0:04:31.040 --> 0:04:34.600
<v Speaker 2>some sort of welfare, some sort of you know, government support.

0:04:35.480 --> 0:04:39.039
<v Speaker 2>And these Republicans said, okay, and I want if you

0:04:39.120 --> 0:04:42.640
<v Speaker 2>are listening, please if one of these senators is yours

0:04:43.080 --> 0:04:46.200
<v Speaker 2>two two two two four thirty one twenty one, because

0:04:46.240 --> 0:04:49.440
<v Speaker 2>I am telling you, these people need to hear from you.

0:04:49.480 --> 0:04:51.880
<v Speaker 2>They need to know that your piss off and they

0:04:51.920 --> 0:04:54.279
<v Speaker 2>will continue to do the wrong thing unless the until

0:04:54.320 --> 0:04:58.240
<v Speaker 2>they know we mean business. So people who voted not

0:04:58.480 --> 0:05:05.400
<v Speaker 2>to block this welfare Senator Boozman, Senator Carpedo, Senator Collins,

0:05:05.880 --> 0:05:14.719
<v Speaker 2>Senator Ernst, Senator Fisher, Senator Graham, Senator Grassley, Senator Hyde, Smith,

0:05:15.520 --> 0:05:22.560
<v Speaker 2>Senator Lankfort, Senator McConnell, Big Shock, Senator Moran, Senator Mullen,

0:05:22.800 --> 0:05:28.040
<v Speaker 2>which I am shocked by. Senator mckowski, not shocked, Total Rhino.

0:05:28.680 --> 0:05:36.839
<v Speaker 2>Senator Ricketts, Senator Rounds, Senator Sullivan, Senator Thun, Scumbag, Senator Tillis,

0:05:37.400 --> 0:05:41.640
<v Speaker 2>Senator Wicker, and Senator Young. So now I'm trying to

0:05:41.760 --> 0:05:47.640
<v Speaker 2>understand why in the world would they vote to not

0:05:48.080 --> 0:05:52.560
<v Speaker 2>end welfare for refugees. Why would you vote no on that?

0:05:53.240 --> 0:05:57.280
<v Speaker 2>Do you want to continue to send taxpayer funds to

0:05:58.040 --> 0:06:02.920
<v Speaker 2>Somali quote unquote refugees because these refugees are opening up

0:06:03.279 --> 0:06:07.080
<v Speaker 2>fake businesses. They have almost one hundred percent cases of

0:06:07.160 --> 0:06:12.240
<v Speaker 2>autism in their children. They have fake accounting firms, fake

0:06:12.560 --> 0:06:17.160
<v Speaker 2>hospice care, fake daycares. I mean, who could forget Nick

0:06:17.200 --> 0:06:21.240
<v Speaker 2>Shirley's the Leering Center. I don't get it. What are

0:06:21.279 --> 0:06:25.200
<v Speaker 2>you guys doing? Why would you vote to allow this

0:06:25.360 --> 0:06:30.320
<v Speaker 2>money from hard earned taxpayer dollars? They're hard earned dollars

0:06:30.360 --> 0:06:32.760
<v Speaker 2>if they bust their ass to make Why would you

0:06:32.800 --> 0:06:38.000
<v Speaker 2>give this away, especially people, especially people like Joni Ernst,

0:06:38.160 --> 0:06:42.800
<v Speaker 2>especially people like Mark Wayne Mullen. Why why would you

0:06:42.839 --> 0:06:46.400
<v Speaker 2>allow this to happen? What am I missing? The reason

0:06:46.480 --> 0:06:49.640
<v Speaker 2>that people come here and they live off the system

0:06:50.120 --> 0:06:53.880
<v Speaker 2>is very simple because they can because we allow it.

0:06:54.240 --> 0:06:58.039
<v Speaker 2>Because it doesn't stop. You know, people will only take

0:06:58.040 --> 0:07:01.360
<v Speaker 2>advantage of you as long and as much as you

0:07:01.480 --> 0:07:04.680
<v Speaker 2>allow it to happen. But if you say I'm sorry, yeah,

0:07:04.680 --> 0:07:09.960
<v Speaker 2>we're not giving you that great goodbye. Get out the

0:07:10.000 --> 0:07:12.240
<v Speaker 2>people that are coming here from Somalia, it's called a

0:07:12.240 --> 0:07:16.200
<v Speaker 2>gravy train. They're not driving around and used cars. They're

0:07:16.240 --> 0:07:20.560
<v Speaker 2>driving around in brand new Lamborghinis and Mercedes Benzes. That's

0:07:20.560 --> 0:07:24.360
<v Speaker 2>what we see when we go all the ground to Minnesota,

0:07:24.720 --> 0:07:26.960
<v Speaker 2>and when we go to these businesses that say they're

0:07:27.080 --> 0:07:29.040
<v Speaker 2>X Y and Z, there is no x Y and Z.

0:07:30.000 --> 0:07:34.480
<v Speaker 2>There are closed doors, shuttered windows, and absolutely nothing to

0:07:34.520 --> 0:07:38.680
<v Speaker 2>say for it. So I started doing some research to

0:07:38.760 --> 0:07:42.080
<v Speaker 2>remind everybody, because if you're like me, there's so much

0:07:42.080 --> 0:07:45.160
<v Speaker 2>going on it's hard to remember it all. But I

0:07:45.480 --> 0:07:49.720
<v Speaker 2>just really, I really want to first start with back

0:07:49.720 --> 0:07:54.280
<v Speaker 2>in the beginning of February, Trump had doctor oz go

0:07:54.600 --> 0:08:00.920
<v Speaker 2>and reveal another massive Somali autism fraud scheme, and this

0:08:01.040 --> 0:08:03.440
<v Speaker 2>time it was in Maine. So they went from Minnesota

0:08:04.000 --> 0:08:08.560
<v Speaker 2>to Maine. And so the President explained, he said, autism

0:08:08.640 --> 0:08:12.760
<v Speaker 2>spending served over fifty percent out of nowhere in Maine,

0:08:13.120 --> 0:08:15.920
<v Speaker 2>clustered in these little areas, just like it did in Minnesota.

0:08:16.720 --> 0:08:19.400
<v Speaker 2>So doctor Oz responded, he said, it looks like another

0:08:19.480 --> 0:08:23.640
<v Speaker 2>governor left the cash register unattended. Criminals help themselves to

0:08:23.680 --> 0:08:25.720
<v Speaker 2>your hard earned money. We're going to get to the

0:08:25.720 --> 0:08:29.000
<v Speaker 2>bottom of this. So why is he saying that he's

0:08:29.040 --> 0:08:31.080
<v Speaker 2>going to get to the bottom of it? But our

0:08:31.160 --> 0:08:34.640
<v Speaker 2>senators are saying absolutely not, we don't want to find

0:08:34.640 --> 0:08:39.880
<v Speaker 2>out more. In fact, we want to vote against stopping it.

0:08:39.960 --> 0:08:43.760
<v Speaker 2>Does that make any sense to anybody. It's like we

0:08:43.880 --> 0:08:47.880
<v Speaker 2>have doctor Oz who's the administrator of the Centers for

0:08:48.240 --> 0:08:52.400
<v Speaker 2>Medicare and Medicaid, so he's going to work on it

0:08:52.440 --> 0:08:55.839
<v Speaker 2>so that they can stop committing healthcare fraud. But then

0:08:55.880 --> 0:08:58.200
<v Speaker 2>we have senators saying that's okay, we're going to backdoor

0:08:58.240 --> 0:09:01.000
<v Speaker 2>this money into you. I just don't get it. Take

0:09:01.000 --> 0:09:03.120
<v Speaker 2>a listen to doctor Oz here, you'll see what I mean.

0:09:04.440 --> 0:09:07.720
<v Speaker 3>We might have another Minnesota on our hands. Remember that

0:09:07.760 --> 0:09:10.520
<v Speaker 3>state's program for children with autism, the one where some

0:09:10.640 --> 0:09:14.600
<v Speaker 3>malley frosters set up fake treatment centers and stole millions

0:09:14.640 --> 0:09:17.600
<v Speaker 3>of taxpayer dollars, while the same thing appears to be

0:09:17.640 --> 0:09:21.200
<v Speaker 3>happening in Maine. Two weeks ago, health and Human services

0:09:21.240 --> 0:09:25.200
<v Speaker 3>investigators released a report on Main's autism program in which

0:09:25.200 --> 0:09:29.280
<v Speaker 3>they identified at least forty five million dollars in improper payments.

0:09:29.640 --> 0:09:32.400
<v Speaker 3>But that's not all. They learned that the program's payouts

0:09:32.400 --> 0:09:35.600
<v Speaker 3>increased more than fifty percent in just four years. They

0:09:35.600 --> 0:09:39.400
<v Speaker 3>found that treatment centers are clustered in small geographic areas,

0:09:39.480 --> 0:09:42.439
<v Speaker 3>just like they did in Minnesota. The reviewed paperwork that

0:09:42.559 --> 0:09:45.640
<v Speaker 3>was missing crucial information, like whether the kids receiving these

0:09:45.679 --> 0:09:49.360
<v Speaker 3>services had been properly diagnosed with autism in the first place.

0:09:49.920 --> 0:09:53.760
<v Speaker 3>One hundred percent of the claims they examined had problems,

0:09:54.320 --> 0:09:57.320
<v Speaker 3>and most troubling of all, they discovered that Maine had

0:09:57.400 --> 0:10:02.240
<v Speaker 3>never conducted a statewide review of its autism program. Once again,

0:10:02.280 --> 0:10:06.000
<v Speaker 3>it looks like another governor left the cash register unattended

0:10:06.360 --> 0:10:10.560
<v Speaker 3>and criminals helped themselves to your hard darned money. Rest assured,

0:10:10.640 --> 0:10:12.559
<v Speaker 3>we're going to get to the bottom of this Today,

0:10:12.679 --> 0:10:15.160
<v Speaker 3>we sent a letter to Governor Janet Mills and Main's

0:10:15.200 --> 0:10:20.120
<v Speaker 3>health commissioner, demanding more information about how they're preventing, identifying,

0:10:20.320 --> 0:10:24.520
<v Speaker 3>and remediating fraud in the autism program and other programs

0:10:24.520 --> 0:10:27.080
<v Speaker 3>that have raised red flags. If we don't like what

0:10:27.160 --> 0:10:29.839
<v Speaker 3>we see, CMS will work with Maine to put their

0:10:29.840 --> 0:10:33.199
<v Speaker 3>house in order, and if we're not satisfied with their progress,

0:10:33.360 --> 0:10:36.640
<v Speaker 3>we reserve the right to cut off payments entirely. That's

0:10:36.679 --> 0:10:39.840
<v Speaker 3>what it means to fight fraud, preserve program integrity, and

0:10:39.920 --> 0:10:43.079
<v Speaker 3>protect your taxpayer dollars. And that's what we'll keep doing

0:10:43.240 --> 0:10:44.880
<v Speaker 3>every single day here at.

0:10:44.720 --> 0:10:50.679
<v Speaker 2>CMS produced by the US Department of Health and Human Services.

0:10:52.320 --> 0:10:55.720
<v Speaker 2>So there we have doctor Oz making it very very

0:10:55.760 --> 0:10:58.040
<v Speaker 2>clear that he is going to do the right thing.

0:10:58.400 --> 0:11:02.000
<v Speaker 2>He's going to make sure that our taxpayer dollars are

0:11:02.040 --> 0:11:06.440
<v Speaker 2>not being used to aid defraud the American people, not

0:11:06.559 --> 0:11:08.880
<v Speaker 2>be able to pay thanks for our veterans and our

0:11:08.920 --> 0:11:11.520
<v Speaker 2>elderly and truly six people that need to be on

0:11:11.600 --> 0:11:15.480
<v Speaker 2>Medicaid and Medicare, and instead be used as a primary

0:11:15.520 --> 0:11:18.040
<v Speaker 2>healthcare supplement for people that are here as quote unquote

0:11:18.080 --> 0:11:22.760
<v Speaker 2>refugees living off of welfare and using these services which

0:11:22.800 --> 0:11:26.640
<v Speaker 2>are not intended for them. This is the type of

0:11:26.640 --> 0:11:29.760
<v Speaker 2>stuff that we as American people should expect and deserve.

0:11:30.720 --> 0:11:34.800
<v Speaker 2>But then we have these senators who unfortunately think that

0:11:34.840 --> 0:11:38.080
<v Speaker 2>they have the right to give our taxpayer dollars over

0:11:38.160 --> 0:11:40.679
<v Speaker 2>to these things. I'm telling you, guys two two two

0:11:40.720 --> 0:11:45.040
<v Speaker 2>two four thirty one, twenty one. And remember we just

0:11:45.240 --> 0:11:50.280
<v Speaker 2>had about a week ago with a Third World Somali pirate.

0:11:51.160 --> 0:11:56.480
<v Speaker 2>He pled guilty to six million dollars in Minnesota in

0:11:56.520 --> 0:11:59.520
<v Speaker 2>an autism center fraud scheme. He was twenty two years old.

0:12:00.679 --> 0:12:04.720
<v Speaker 2>Last name is Yusuf. So you're telling me now that

0:12:04.800 --> 0:12:07.679
<v Speaker 2>this guy is twenty two years old, he's a millionaire

0:12:08.040 --> 0:12:11.240
<v Speaker 2>here in America, and he's a refugee. Give me a break.

0:12:11.320 --> 0:12:14.680
<v Speaker 2>Come on, guys. This is the stuff that is just

0:12:14.840 --> 0:12:19.240
<v Speaker 2>a bridge too far. And when we look back and

0:12:19.280 --> 0:12:23.360
<v Speaker 2>we think about the testimony of Governor Walls before the

0:12:23.400 --> 0:12:28.000
<v Speaker 2>House Oversight Committee, some interesting facts were pointed out to him,

0:12:28.040 --> 0:12:30.319
<v Speaker 2>and I'll highlight them and then i'll play another clip

0:12:30.360 --> 0:12:34.160
<v Speaker 2>from this hearing just so that you can really just

0:12:34.240 --> 0:12:37.920
<v Speaker 2>take in the numbers. Fifty four percent of Somalis are

0:12:37.920 --> 0:12:42.480
<v Speaker 2>on food stamps, eighty one percent have a family member.

0:12:43.040 --> 0:12:49.120
<v Speaker 2>I'm medicaid. Eighty seven percent of those charged in the

0:12:49.200 --> 0:12:54.440
<v Speaker 2>Minnesota fraud scheme are Somali. So it's not like we're

0:12:54.480 --> 0:12:58.080
<v Speaker 2>looking outside and trying to figure out, oh, well, who

0:12:58.080 --> 0:13:01.080
<v Speaker 2>could possibly be guilty of this? We know who's guilty,

0:13:01.280 --> 0:13:03.559
<v Speaker 2>we know where they're from, we know what they're doing,

0:13:03.800 --> 0:13:06.800
<v Speaker 2>we have all the proof, it's all in writing. But

0:13:06.880 --> 0:13:10.160
<v Speaker 2>these Republican senators still decided to send your money over.

0:13:10.960 --> 0:13:13.960
<v Speaker 2>Why would you not stop that gravy train? Does that

0:13:14.040 --> 0:13:18.400
<v Speaker 2>make any sense to anybody? I'm going to play some

0:13:18.480 --> 0:13:20.920
<v Speaker 2>of this so you can hear this, because it is truly.

0:13:21.679 --> 0:13:25.080
<v Speaker 2>This clip's about two minutes, but it is. It's insane

0:13:25.280 --> 0:13:27.640
<v Speaker 2>how ridiculous it is, and Walsh tries to defend it.

0:13:28.280 --> 0:13:30.720
<v Speaker 1>For Walt, do you believe the seventy thousand strong Somali

0:13:30.760 --> 0:13:34.600
<v Speaker 1>community as a whole has made a positive impact on

0:13:34.640 --> 0:13:37.800
<v Speaker 1>your state? I do, so you'd be the opinion fair

0:13:37.840 --> 0:13:40.720
<v Speaker 1>to say that the smaller community has successfully assimilated and

0:13:40.840 --> 0:13:42.000
<v Speaker 1>is making Minnesota better.

0:13:42.440 --> 0:13:43.800
<v Speaker 4>Yeah. I believe they're on that path.

0:13:43.960 --> 0:13:46.600
<v Speaker 1>Yes, I'm just curious by what metric you'd come to

0:13:46.640 --> 0:13:49.320
<v Speaker 1>that conclusion. I just looked at some hard data and

0:13:49.400 --> 0:13:51.920
<v Speaker 1>do you have any idea what percentage of the native

0:13:51.920 --> 0:13:54.800
<v Speaker 1>born Minnesota's all races live in poverty in your state

0:13:54.840 --> 0:13:57.559
<v Speaker 1>right now? I don't have specifically, I'll share it with

0:13:57.600 --> 0:13:59.960
<v Speaker 1>it's eight percent. For the smaller community, it's fifty two percent.

0:14:00.160 --> 0:14:03.640
<v Speaker 1>How about receiving food stamps? Dontor right, I'll run it

0:14:03.679 --> 0:14:07.160
<v Speaker 1>down with you at seven percent and then in the

0:14:07.160 --> 0:14:09.160
<v Speaker 1>compared to fifty four percent in the Smalley community, and

0:14:09.200 --> 0:14:13.040
<v Speaker 1>then don't have it, don't have at least a high

0:14:13.040 --> 0:14:15.679
<v Speaker 1>school diploma. For all Minnesotas, it's five percent. Smile of

0:14:15.679 --> 0:14:20.280
<v Speaker 1>community's thirty nine percent one family member at least on Medicaid.

0:14:20.400 --> 0:14:23.160
<v Speaker 1>It's eighteen percent for Minnesota, seventy three percent for the

0:14:23.160 --> 0:14:26.240
<v Speaker 1>Smiley community. And receiving welfare of some form it's twenty

0:14:26.320 --> 0:14:30.000
<v Speaker 1>one percent, and it's eighty one percent for the Somali community.

0:14:30.000 --> 0:14:31.480
<v Speaker 1>And you, governor, do you having to know what the

0:14:31.480 --> 0:14:34.560
<v Speaker 1>percentages of all those who have currently been charged in

0:14:34.560 --> 0:14:39.680
<v Speaker 1>this staggering social services fraud scheme were native born Minnesota's

0:14:39.720 --> 0:14:40.360
<v Speaker 1>one percentage?

0:14:40.880 --> 0:14:41.840
<v Speaker 4>I do not have that.

0:14:41.880 --> 0:14:43.760
<v Speaker 1>I think it was eighty five and eight, which comes

0:14:43.760 --> 0:14:48.680
<v Speaker 1>out to thirteen percent Minnesota and eighty seven percent Somali Minnesotan.

0:14:48.920 --> 0:14:50.920
<v Speaker 1>So I think this is an instance perhaps where we'll

0:14:50.920 --> 0:14:53.760
<v Speaker 1>gets slept by data a governor. There's been billions stolen

0:14:53.800 --> 0:14:55.840
<v Speaker 1>over seven plus years, right under your nose. And really

0:14:55.920 --> 0:14:58.320
<v Speaker 1>there's only two explanations. It's either you were in on

0:14:58.360 --> 0:15:02.000
<v Speaker 1>it or you weren't smart enough to to see it.

0:15:02.000 --> 0:15:05.720
<v Speaker 1>It's either criminal negligence or wild incompetence. And the only

0:15:05.920 --> 0:15:08.960
<v Speaker 1>way this kind of fraud can reach this scale is

0:15:09.120 --> 0:15:13.520
<v Speaker 1>if there's people in power that are colluding and collaborating

0:15:13.560 --> 0:15:17.280
<v Speaker 1>and willfully blinding themselves to the realities around them and

0:15:17.320 --> 0:15:20.560
<v Speaker 1>in oversight. When we do investigations, it's rare for us

0:15:20.560 --> 0:15:24.720
<v Speaker 1>to have whistleblowers because it's they face retribution and punishment

0:15:24.880 --> 0:15:28.760
<v Speaker 1>and resentment, and they can be ostracized, and it's difficult

0:15:28.760 --> 0:15:31.320
<v Speaker 1>and it's uncomfortable, and sometimes it's even dangerous. So when

0:15:31.360 --> 0:15:34.760
<v Speaker 1>we have an when we're having investigation and we have

0:15:34.800 --> 0:15:38.440
<v Speaker 1>even a couple of whistleblowers, it's very valuable to us

0:15:38.480 --> 0:15:41.720
<v Speaker 1>because they provide invaluable insight. Do you have any idea

0:15:41.800 --> 0:15:45.120
<v Speaker 1>how many whistleblowers are working from Minnesota or working with

0:15:45.160 --> 0:15:46.080
<v Speaker 1>the OVERSEC Committee?

0:15:47.520 --> 0:15:48.000
<v Speaker 4>I do not.

0:15:48.080 --> 0:15:51.000
<v Speaker 3>We have our own strong protections in the ola, the industl.

0:15:51.360 --> 0:15:53.960
<v Speaker 1>It's thirty. I mean, I haven't seen that in five

0:15:54.040 --> 0:15:59.080
<v Speaker 1>plus years in Congress. Thirty governor on September sixteenth, twenty twenty.

0:16:00.280 --> 0:16:04.840
<v Speaker 2>So let's just think about that. Not only did Congressman

0:16:04.840 --> 0:16:09.760
<v Speaker 2>Pat Fallen just completely crush him, but he also pointed

0:16:09.800 --> 0:16:14.000
<v Speaker 2>out something very interesting, which he said, thirty nine percent

0:16:14.680 --> 0:16:18.640
<v Speaker 2>of those refugees currently getting your tax dollars do not

0:16:18.800 --> 0:16:22.880
<v Speaker 2>even have a high school diploma. What does that mean

0:16:23.000 --> 0:16:27.840
<v Speaker 2>for American communities? If you're bringing people in and the

0:16:27.920 --> 0:16:30.720
<v Speaker 2>goal is to have them come to America and live

0:16:30.760 --> 0:16:34.360
<v Speaker 2>the American way, how can they do that if they

0:16:34.400 --> 0:16:36.880
<v Speaker 2>have no education. And I'm not saying they had to

0:16:36.920 --> 0:16:38.840
<v Speaker 2>go to college. I'm just saying you got to finish,

0:16:39.080 --> 0:16:41.680
<v Speaker 2>you know, at least primary in high school. Right, So

0:16:41.720 --> 0:16:45.360
<v Speaker 2>you're coming to this country, you probably don't speak the language,

0:16:45.960 --> 0:16:48.560
<v Speaker 2>and you're living off of the system, and then you

0:16:48.640 --> 0:16:51.880
<v Speaker 2>find a way through a loophole of people that have

0:16:51.960 --> 0:16:54.760
<v Speaker 2>been here before you and with the help I'm sure

0:16:55.160 --> 0:17:00.440
<v Speaker 2>of people within certain how should I say the halls

0:17:00.440 --> 0:17:03.840
<v Speaker 2>of government that are more interested in empowering these communities

0:17:03.880 --> 0:17:06.400
<v Speaker 2>than in protecting American interests and we'll leave that there.

0:17:06.440 --> 0:17:07.919
<v Speaker 2>But I think you know what I mean. If we

0:17:07.960 --> 0:17:11.399
<v Speaker 2>follow the paper trails, I do believe that eventually it

0:17:11.480 --> 0:17:15.560
<v Speaker 2>will uncover a lot of the nefarious actions of people

0:17:15.600 --> 0:17:20.080
<v Speaker 2>that should be protecting taxpayers and are instead doling out

0:17:20.160 --> 0:17:24.280
<v Speaker 2>cash to quote unquote refugees. And I keep saying quote

0:17:24.320 --> 0:17:27.320
<v Speaker 2>unquote because they're not refugees. They just know there's a

0:17:27.359 --> 0:17:31.240
<v Speaker 2>lottery ticket. They want to play their hands. How can

0:17:31.280 --> 0:17:34.120
<v Speaker 2>I blame them? We're not stopping it. We have all

0:17:34.160 --> 0:17:37.760
<v Speaker 2>these Republican senators saying, yes, let's keep doing it. Why

0:17:38.680 --> 0:17:41.920
<v Speaker 2>it's bad enough. We have control of the House, control

0:17:42.000 --> 0:17:45.800
<v Speaker 2>of the Senate, we have control of the executive branch,

0:17:46.440 --> 0:17:50.680
<v Speaker 2>and we cannot get a single thing passed that we

0:17:50.840 --> 0:17:54.040
<v Speaker 2>put President Trump in office for. We still don't have

0:17:54.080 --> 0:17:58.560
<v Speaker 2>all the Epstein files, We still don't have election integrity,

0:17:58.680 --> 0:18:01.560
<v Speaker 2>We still don't have safeguard so that when the midterms come,

0:18:02.240 --> 0:18:05.080
<v Speaker 2>we know that our vote matters and we know there

0:18:05.119 --> 0:18:08.240
<v Speaker 2>aren't millions of illegal aliens voting in it. And then

0:18:08.240 --> 0:18:10.119
<v Speaker 2>the other point is we have to know that our

0:18:10.200 --> 0:18:13.760
<v Speaker 2>votes actually count, are not going to be adjudicated in

0:18:13.880 --> 0:18:18.240
<v Speaker 2>back rooms, which some of these election software companies allow

0:18:19.320 --> 0:18:20.639
<v Speaker 2>So if they get to go in and say, oh,

0:18:20.680 --> 0:18:23.760
<v Speaker 2>I couldn't understand what her ballots said, or I couldn't

0:18:23.840 --> 0:18:27.440
<v Speaker 2>understand what that meant, is that right? Is that fair?

0:18:28.600 --> 0:18:28.679
<v Speaker 4>No?

0:18:28.880 --> 0:18:31.840
<v Speaker 2>Of course not. But these are the things that happened

0:18:32.280 --> 0:18:35.160
<v Speaker 2>in the last couple of elections, and now we're actually

0:18:35.200 --> 0:18:37.720
<v Speaker 2>getting information out about that. So I think it makes

0:18:37.760 --> 0:18:41.159
<v Speaker 2>a lot of sense for us to be sincerely concerned

0:18:42.560 --> 0:18:44.960
<v Speaker 2>because if we don't have the Save Act and we're

0:18:44.960 --> 0:18:49.600
<v Speaker 2>not protecting taxpayers, and the only people speaking out about

0:18:49.640 --> 0:18:53.479
<v Speaker 2>the fraud are people like doctor Oz or President Trump

0:18:53.560 --> 0:18:56.240
<v Speaker 2>or RFK who are going state to state, and then

0:18:56.240 --> 0:18:59.400
<v Speaker 2>we have people like Nick Sorter and like Nick Shirley

0:18:59.600 --> 0:19:01.680
<v Speaker 2>that are trying to find out the answers, and James

0:19:01.720 --> 0:19:04.959
<v Speaker 2>O'Keefe for that matter. But we're not getting to the

0:19:04.960 --> 0:19:08.119
<v Speaker 2>heart of the issue, which is people in the Senate

0:19:08.280 --> 0:19:12.160
<v Speaker 2>on our side of the aisle are sending money to refugees.

0:19:13.040 --> 0:19:16.040
<v Speaker 2>We got veterans homeless on the street, we got kids

0:19:16.119 --> 0:19:19.280
<v Speaker 2>in foster care getting abused. So we do not have

0:19:19.359 --> 0:19:22.600
<v Speaker 2>answers on our elections, and we're sending money to Somolians.

0:19:22.960 --> 0:19:27.000
<v Speaker 2>What the hell is going on? I want you to

0:19:27.080 --> 0:19:31.080
<v Speaker 2>listen to our Treasury Secretary Scott Bessen. He made this

0:19:31.200 --> 0:19:35.359
<v Speaker 2>comment about the Somali fraud and what he plans to

0:19:35.400 --> 0:19:40.959
<v Speaker 2>do to those agencies and two people that have aided

0:19:41.040 --> 0:19:44.680
<v Speaker 2>and embedded this kind of fraud. Take a listen to.

0:19:44.600 --> 0:19:51.120
<v Speaker 5>This Treasuries Financial Crimes Enforcement network for whistleblowers that can

0:19:51.160 --> 0:19:55.080
<v Speaker 5>actually be compensated if they come forward. Why wasn't this

0:19:55.200 --> 0:19:57.320
<v Speaker 5>done before? It seems seems like a no brainer.

0:19:58.720 --> 0:20:01.240
<v Speaker 4>I don't know, Joe, but it's very exciting. I think

0:20:01.240 --> 0:20:03.359
<v Speaker 4>it's going to be a great way to ferret out waste,

0:20:03.359 --> 0:20:08.360
<v Speaker 4>fraud and abuse, starting in Minneapolis, which has been ground zero.

0:20:08.480 --> 0:20:12.480
<v Speaker 4>So we are encouraging whistleblowers who know about fraud people

0:20:12.600 --> 0:20:18.760
<v Speaker 4>are stealing from the American taxpayer to come forward. At Treasury.

0:20:18.880 --> 0:20:21.720
<v Speaker 4>We're setting up a website and we will be giving

0:20:21.840 --> 0:20:26.320
<v Speaker 4>rewards up to ten to thirty percent of the fines

0:20:26.320 --> 0:20:27.040
<v Speaker 4>that we levied.

0:20:29.160 --> 0:20:33.320
<v Speaker 2>So this guy is offering rewards for whistleblowers to turn

0:20:33.400 --> 0:20:38.320
<v Speaker 2>in people that are committing fraud. Again, I repeat, we

0:20:38.400 --> 0:20:42.400
<v Speaker 2>had about fifteen senators there go ahead and vote against

0:20:42.680 --> 0:20:47.240
<v Speaker 2>American interests to allow our tax dollars to be given

0:20:47.240 --> 0:20:50.760
<v Speaker 2>to the same people that our Treasury Secretary and our

0:20:50.800 --> 0:20:53.200
<v Speaker 2>CMS administrator are saying, we're going to turn around and

0:20:53.240 --> 0:20:55.080
<v Speaker 2>we're going to find you and we are going to

0:20:55.080 --> 0:20:59.359
<v Speaker 2>crush this. I mean, can we get our shit together, guys?

0:20:59.640 --> 0:21:07.800
<v Speaker 2>Series It is absolutely it is so infuriating, honestly to

0:21:07.920 --> 0:21:12.840
<v Speaker 2>be a part of this time in politics, because the

0:21:12.960 --> 0:21:16.440
<v Speaker 2>opportunity is in front of us and we are losing

0:21:16.480 --> 0:21:20.480
<v Speaker 2>it every single day instead of doing what works, instead

0:21:20.480 --> 0:21:25.399
<v Speaker 2>of doing what helps Americans, we are allowing our money

0:21:25.720 --> 0:21:29.639
<v Speaker 2>to go over to these special interest groups and to

0:21:29.800 --> 0:21:35.159
<v Speaker 2>these fake refugees and allowing it to completely and totally

0:21:36.200 --> 0:21:39.320
<v Speaker 2>help these people to make more money by doing nothing

0:21:39.359 --> 0:21:43.000
<v Speaker 2>when they're able, bodied and capable, and quite frankly, most

0:21:43.040 --> 0:21:46.840
<v Speaker 2>of them should not be here under refugee status. But

0:21:46.920 --> 0:21:49.440
<v Speaker 2>this is what's happening. And I can't even blame the Democrats.

0:21:49.440 --> 0:21:53.040
<v Speaker 2>I have to blame these Republicans. So just as a closer,

0:21:53.720 --> 0:22:01.440
<v Speaker 2>let's remember big losers of today, Big big losers Twusban Collins,

0:22:02.000 --> 0:22:11.520
<v Speaker 2>Ernst Fisher, Graham, Grassley, Hyde, Smith, Langford, McConnell, Moran, Mullen, Murkowski,

0:22:11.960 --> 0:22:19.240
<v Speaker 2>Rickets Round, Sullivan, fun Tillis, Wicker and Young. You guys

0:22:19.280 --> 0:22:23.439
<v Speaker 2>really suck today, I hope you know how much you

0:22:23.520 --> 0:22:27.000
<v Speaker 2>have let the American people down and how much we're

0:22:27.000 --> 0:22:28.720
<v Speaker 2>going to remember when it comes time to put you

0:22:28.760 --> 0:22:30.560
<v Speaker 2>back in office. I hope it was worth it. I

0:22:30.640 --> 0:22:34.040
<v Speaker 2>hope you enjoyed this. You are listening to the Rogue Recap.
