Inside the White House’s Massive Fraud Crackdown
Episode description
The White House Correspondents’ Dinner shooting and the two previous assassination attempts on President Trump have exposed a chilling surge in national threat levels and the desperate need for modernized protective protocols. Former Secret Service Special Agent and DHS Advisor Charles Marino joins to discuss why high-profile presidential events require stricter National Special Security Event designation, the failure of the Secret Service advance process in Butler, PA, and whether the Department of Homeland Security is providing enough oversight to support Secret Service's overall mission.
Federal agents from the FBI and Homeland Security raided more than 20 Minnesota businesses this week, marking a massive escalation in the fight against rampant fraud. While Minnesota has been under the spotlight for years regarding Medicaid fraud, the Trump administration is now launching a nationwide crackdown. CMS Administrator Dr. Mehmet Oz joins the program to explain how he is working to eliminate waste, fraud, and abuse. He breaks down how these sophisticated scams operate and why he is putting every state governor on notice to help purge ineligible providers from the system.
