We Asked AI To Predict What Will Happen Now That Elon Musk Is A Trillionaire

Not legal advice: We suggest to legitimate providers who have been de-validated in Medicaid billing to consider litigating as a class action against MN DHS and name Shireen Gandhi and John Connolly as their failures have de-certified many legitimate providers.
If anyone Medicaid clients die due to the lack of providers, it is undoubtedly due to how poorly MN DHS is being run by John Connolly and Shireen Gandhi.
Duane Quam retweeted
Medicaid providers who have NOT revalidated themselves are now billing to contracts/grants in much higher amounts. Our "leaders" such as John Connolly and Shireen Gandhi are failing our state - YET AGAIN.
MN Taxpayers are still being defrauded at alarming rates yet the likes of Shireen Gandhi would rather stand around and twiddle her thumbs. And sycophant Mary Kim is clueless as ever and doing nothing to stop providers from bilking their contracts/grants.
@DrOz @DrOzCMS Please withhold MN Medicaid funds until Shireen Gandhi is ousted, investigated, and charged.
Duane Quam retweeted
It is the most basic step in awarding a contract/grant. Verify that MN DHS is awarding to a legitimate business that exists.
BUT NO. MN DHS forced staff to award funds to grantees who don't even have a phone number or email address. That is how fraud became so bad in Minnesota.
With Democrats in control, more taxpayer funds are being wasted on fraud. As governor, I promise you that I will always know where your money is going.

Today, ICE officers in Minneapolis were conducting targeted operations when rioters began blocking ICE officers and one of these violent rioters weaponized her vehicle, attempting to run over our law enforcement officers in an attempt to kill them—an act of domestic terrorism.
An ICE officer, fearing for his life, the lives of his fellow law enforcement and the safety of the public, fired defensive shots.
He used his training and saved his own life and that of his fellow officers.
The alleged perpetrator was hit and is deceased. The ICE officers who were hurt are expected to make full recoveries.
This is the direct consequence of constant attacks and demonization of our officers by sanctuary politicians who fuel and encourage rampant assaults on our law enforcement who are facing 1,300% increase in assaults against them and an 8,000% increase in death threats.
This is an evolving situation, and we will give the public more information as soon as it becomes available.

Gov. Walz announced his framework for a special session, sidestepping the committee process and holding up policies that will keep Minnesotans safe. This move is unprecedented and breaks from how our Legislature is meant to work—and it’s not how we improve Minnesota. @DRQuam

.@RealTomHoman says the Trump Administration has found close to 25,000 unaccompanied minors that were "lost" under Joe Biden:
"Many were in sex trafficking. Many were found in forced labor—slavery. I mean forced to work ungodly hours, not going to school."

Ethical state leaders & media (except WCCO) please start looking into DHS waiver fraud. Our staff, especially with Disability & CADI waivers have been repeatedly roadblocked when trying to introduce fraud detection checkpoints. DHS leadership is still trying to dismantle fraud prevention work. Look into historic fraud with these waivers.
Duane Quam retweeted
Since Jodi Harpstead & Shireen Gandhi’s incompetent “leadership.” Minnesotans have seen repeated fraud & mismanagement:
•SUD billing fraud
•Housing Stabilization fraud
•Waiver program abuses
•Contracts ballooning without bids
Taxpayers were promised accountability. Instead, the same officials stayed in charge while Jodi Harpstead’s wise words: “Fraud ends now.”
Reality: Fraud continued, enabled, and floriished under DHS leadership & “compliance.”

Tim Walz. Public deserves to know: WHERE IS THE $29 million? In March 2020, Tim Walz expressed that the White Earth and Leech Lake tribes should not be held responsible for the overpayments, stating: “the tribes impacted should be held harmless” and should not have to repay the $29 million.  
•He introduced supplemental budget recommendations including funding to cover the entire overpayment amount, effectively aiming to relieve the tribes of repayment responsibility.
Duane Quam retweeted
In 2019, after the $29M tribal overpayment scandal, DHS Comm. Jodi Harpstead told legislators: “Fraud ends now.” But fraud scandals never stopped but grew WORSE. Tim Walz consistently refused to address fraud. At the same time, Shireen Gandhi was DHS’s Chief Compliance Officer — the person responsible for safeguarding integrity, rules, and oversight.

UPDATE: All DFL House members who had an election certificate were sworn in except Curtis Johnson.
Rep. @BradTabke was sworn in tonight.
He has his certificate until it is revoked.
Johnson could have technically been sworn in
Sources tell me House DFL members were sworn in by retired Judge Kevin Burke at the MN History Center this afternoon. #mnleg.

Wow. No longer beholden to his caucus, retiring Democrat Representative Gene Pelowski says "it would be a good thing for Minnesota" if Republicans take back the House, restore divided government, and commit to an "un-session" focused on repeals and fixes.
Amen.

Dear VP Harris: I hear you make this statement all the time. Exactly what “faith” are you talking about when you say you don’t have to abandon it to support abortion? Are you talking about the Christian faith that says all babies are made in the image of God (Gen 1:26), that God places them in the womb (Jer 1:5) and that we should not take any life unjustly (Luke 18:20)? Are you talking about that faith or some nebulous, general “faith” that says we’re good enough, and smart enough to make our own decisions? What “faith” are you talking about?
