Federal investigators have made yet another discovery of a sophisticated fraud scheme involving a work authorization program for foreign students.

ICE revealed Tuesday that the Optional Practical Training Program, a program that allows foreign students to work in their area of study for up to one year while attending school, has become a magnet for fraud.

Acting ICE Director Todd Lyons said investigators found empty buildings with locked doors where hundreds of foreign students were said to be working.

A recent sweep of 18 sites in North Texas turned up clusters of employers sharing nearly identical websites and job postings while denying any ties to one another.

And in Houston, agents flagged a pay-to-stay scheme in which a company allegedly charged foreign students under the table to maintain their visa status.

Lyons called the activity deliberate, coordinated, and criminal, warning that what's been uncovered may be only the tip of the iceberg.

Everybody knows someone right now who's talking about weight loss injections.

And to be fair, the results can be dramatic.

They work by helping regulate blood sugar and reducing appetite.

But a lot of people are also hesitant about weekly injections, especially once they start hearing about some of the side effects that can come with them.

That's why more people, including some here at The Daily Wire, have been looking into Lean from Brickhouse Nutrition.

Lean is a doctor-developed weight loss supplement, and several people around the Daily Wire team who've tried it have talked about how helpful it's been for controlling cravings and staying more consistent with healthier eating habits.

The ingredients in Lean are backed by research showing they can help lower blood sugar, convert stored fat into energy, and reduce those constant hunger cravings that make dieting difficult.

And this is important.

Lean is not really aimed at somebody trying to lose two or three pounds before a vacation.
