Now the fraud czar, I guess.

And he made his first major move, suspending $259 million in federal Medicaid reimbursements to Minnesota.

Shocked that it was Minnesota.

Joined by Dr. Oz, Vance said that the pause is tied to an ongoing fraud probe in the state and warned that more funds might be withheld if Minnesota doesn't present a corrective plan within 60 days.

Medicaid reimbursements are approved by Congress.

I know that they don't care about that issue.

Kind of stuff.

But what do you think about, I guess, the fact that we have this new department?

What the implications of it?

I don't know.

You can't trust anyone.

But this was a State of the Union of recycling.

I mean, it was basically nothing new.

And the retirement accounts thing was just a Biden policy from 2022.

Like, there was nothing new except the screaming.

For six months?

For durable medical goods.

It's literally everything in a hospital.

Interesting.

Okay, because on the one hand, and I probably shouldn't have scoffed so hard when I said, oh, it's Minnesota, because Minnesota did have $9 billion in fraud, and they have a very real problem there that is not invented.
