I have a friend who is disabled, lives alone, and needs home health care through Medicaid. Her ability to receive services is harmed by fraudsters like these.
Ram Chhetri came to the US as a refugee, but this might be worst day of his life: It's the moment he realizes the $80k-$160k/year salary he's bilked from Medicaid for no-show work is coming to an end because @realdailywire caught the truth on camera.
We conducted months of surveillance that shows why "home care aide" is now the *most common job* in states like NY, CA, MN, and PA: Because a large part of those jobs are unambiguous Medicaid fraud.
Thanks to home care, Bhutanese refugees now make more money than actual PA families. The state doesn't just look the other way, but helps them get away with it. Converting federal health dollars into a universal basic income for certain communities relieves the financial burden they place on the state.
The scammers easily deceive the feds' woefully broken monitoring system. You'll see Ram pull into a driveway for 2 minutes in the morning, then 2 minutes in the evening. He clocks in and out of his shift from the right place, and the GPS system doesn't notice that he goes home in between.
$20 an hour doesn't sound like much, but at 77 hours a week, it's $80k–and it's easy to bill huge hours when you don't actually have to work them. And that's just for the low-level guys in this scheme.

Insight into this type of work, below. I, btw, have been guilty of asking these guys where things are in a store. Once it was bc I had been Gen-Z stared so hard by the actual employee of the store in reaction to my question, that I clocked a man like this as solidly Gen X and therefore competent to help despite not working there. He was correct and I thanked him. Men like him are a boon to society, and streaming humiliating pranks on them is garbage.

My biggest concern is that if there is a clean sweep by Democrats of the House, Senate and Presidency in 2028, they will:
1. Make DC and Puerto Rico states to gain a strong majority in the Senate.
2. Open the borders and legalize everyone living in America illegally to cement a permanent majority.
3. Increase the size of the Supreme Court to gain an immediate majority.
This would result in America becoming a permanent one-party state and the end of democracy in any meaningful sense of the word.
All that is needed to ensure this doesn’t happen is 51 Republican senators in 2029. That is why you should vote for Republican senators this election. Other reasons are irrelevant compared to this one.
This man is the voice of millions of real men out there working hard, taking a second job, swinging at whatever life throws at them, and just handling it!
Not a good time to be a Haitian gang. 🧻
Pèp ayisyen,
Nou prèske fin deplwaye sòlda nou yo ak ekipman nou yo sou tè Ayiti. Sa a se pa yon operasyon kont pèp ayisyen an, ni yon envazyon peyi Ayiti. Nou pa yon gwo pisans. Nou pa gen okenn enterè ni pou nou vin domine pèp ayisyen an, ni pou nou mete men sou richès Ayiti.
Nou se yon peyi modès k ap devlope. Sèl sa nou vle, se pou kat teknisyen avyasyon nou yo tounen lakay yo. Epi n ap bay gang yo yon leson, gang sa yo k ap fè pèp ayisyen an soufri, ki touye moun pèp la renmen yo, k ap anpeche l viv yon lavi nòmal, lib, san laperèz.
Se prèske nou menm sèl k ap peye pou operasyon sa a. Menmsi nou resevwa yon ti èd lojistik nan men kèk lòt peyi, se ak pwòp ti kès nou n ap kouvri 90% nan depans yo.
Sa koute nou chè, men nou te aprann nan pwòp soufrans nou: jistis ak lapè pa gen pri. Nou te pase nan menm soufrans Ayiti ap travèse jodi a. Nou te viv yon beny san ki te pi terib toujou pase sa pèp ayisyen an ap sibi kounye a. Nou konnen sa sa vle di: viv nan laperèz, pa fè politisyen konfyans, pa kwè okenn moun ki pwomèt l ap ede w. Paske pèsonn pa t vin ede nou, e moun ki te vini yo pa t gen bon entansyon nan kè yo.
Men nou te rive chape anba sa. Apre 200 lane soufrans, finalman n ap viv nan lapè, e jodi a nou se peyi ki gen plis sekirite sou kontinan an.
Nou pa vin ann Ayiti pou nou touche lajan, paske pèsonn pa peye nou pou sa. Nou vin ann Ayiti pou nou goumen kont mechan yo.
Men sa m ap mande nou: fè nou konfyans, lapriyè sèl vrè Bondye a, epi mande L pou L geri Ayiti.
“Lè sa a si pèp ki pote non m lan lapriyè nan pye m, si yo soumèt devan mwen, si yo pran chache m ankò, si yo vire do bay vye peche yo t'ap fè yo, m'ap tande yo nan syèl kote m ye a, m'ap padonnen peche yo, m'ap fè peyi a kanpe ankò.”
2 Kwonik 7:14
Ede nou ede Ayiti.
Epi lè misyon nou an fini, n ap tounen lakay nou. Petèt jenerasyon Ayisyen k ap vini yo ap sonje nou kòm zanmi ki te vin ede yon lè.

I am speechless. Thomas Aquinas College just dropped a study on the rigor of the new SAT.
It compares the 1980/87 test with 2026. The findings should terrify every parent and teacher...
Vocabulary has collapsed.
Old SAT: 70.6% of questions tested vocab.
New SAT: 15%.
The old test forced students to know a wide range of words through analogies, antonyms, and sentence completions. The new test abandoned that. Most vocab questions now just ask students to fill in one blank from context.
Reading passages also got radically shorter (average ~97 words vs 300–340).
The new test uses short expository passages and hands you the necessary background knowledge inside the text. The older tests leaned much more heavily on argumentative and persuasive writing, assumed far more historical, scientific, and cultural knowledge, and penalized students who lacked it.
This is a redefinition of what "college readiness" means.
If you believe that kids should develop rigorous vocabulary, be capable of sustained reading, and possess background knowledge, I have bad news for you. The SAT no longer measures these.
If you want a future where children can actually read difficult texts and construct complex arguments, the SAT must be replaced now.
This cannot go on.
We were concerned that the SAT has become a less reliable measure of student preparedness for a rigorous college curriculum.
So, we commissioned a study from Johns Hopkins University. What does this study tell us about the state of higher education?
The results are shocking. thaq.co/4iLThZ0

Don't let Josh Shapiro and the Democrats gain a Trifecta here in PA. Don't California our Pennsylvania.
“The reason why we’re adding this in more strong wording is because people refused to allow the Department of Health to enter their residences in the past,” stated Theresa Kash, a Department of Health policy specialist, after giving a presentation on the proposal.
Neil Mahalingam, assistant chief counsel for the Department of Health, said the regulatory changes gave the agency the authority to access “basically any property.”
“We provide more specific language in there, where it provides a general basis for the department to do investigations and to access a variety of properties, basically any property to complete the investigation,” Mahalingam stated at the meeting.

Pennsylvania is just one election away from a dramatically different future.
Four years ago, Democrats took control of the Pennsylvania House by just one vote. And that slim majority has had a major impact on what legislation moves forward.
Consider House Bill 1200, which passed the House by a single vote and would legalize and commercialize recreational marijuana in Pennsylvania.
House Bill 300, the so-called "Fairness Act", would expand nondiscrimination protections based on sexual orientation and gender identity, threatening our religious liberty and girls’ private spaces like bathrooms and locker rooms.
And House Bill 1957 would have enshrined abortion in our Commonwealth’s constitution, effectively allowing abortion until birth and forcing taxpayers to pay for elective abortions.
These proposals have not become law. The Republican-led Senate has stopped many of them.
But if control of the Senate changes this November, the balance of power in Harrisburg changes too. It would give Democrats a complete trifecta and a smooth runway for massive ideological changes that will negatively affect you and your friends and family.
Election Day is Tuesday, November 3rd. Every seat matters. Every vote matters.
Make a plan to vote and encourage your friends and family to do the same.
Pennsylvania’s future is on the line. Don’t sit this one out.

This is literally their plan to end democracy in America
The playbook will go something like this: 1) win back the House and Senate, and hopefully the Presidency in 2028; (2) admit DC and Puerto Rico as states, which doesn’t need a constitutional amendment, to gain 4 new Senate seats and cement control; (3) pack the Court, which only requires a change to the Judiciary Act of 1869, not a constitutional amendment; (4) eliminate the electoral college, which is unconstitutional, but not when you have a rigged court that finds the ‘loophole’; (5) flood the country with pliant migrants, swamp the natives, and hold power indefinitely.

Why are we even debating whether a man of good character with an American wife and American kids "belongs" in America?
Of course he does.
If the law doesn't welcome that, it's a bad law and it should be changed.
what are we even doing here lol

I do not think that word means what you think it means.

Critical Theory ultimately has two purposes, as best I can tell and boil it down.
1) Deracinate a population
2) Radicalize that population
Deracination means pulling up from its roots. It's making people CRITICAL of where they came from and who they are so they become rootless, ideologically and spiritually homeless because they're CRITICAL (hate) their home.
Radicalization takes that criticality and turns it angry and revolutionary. The point is to make the rootless people want change, anything but who they are and where they came from.
