Congress Demands Action on "Staggering" California Fraud Scheme
WASHINGTON, D.C. — APRIL 2, 2026 — In a move that has sent shockwaves from the halls of the Capitol to the statehouse in Sacramento, a powerful coalition of House Republican chairs has officially triggered a massive federal probe into what is being called the "largest concentration of suspected Medicare fraud in U.S. history."
Centered in the heart of Los Angeles County, the scheme involves a sprawling network of hospice and home health agencies that have allegedly siphoned billions from the American taxpayer while operating out of strip malls, unmarked warehouses, and even wrecking yards.
The investigation, led by House Ways and Means Chairman Jason Smith (R-MO) and Energy and Commerce Chairman Brett Guthrie (R-KY), targets a "paper empire" that has flourished under the administration of Governor Gavin Newsom. As the 2026 Renaissance of Law and Order takes hold under the second Trump administration, the federal government is no longer willing to ignore the "asleep at the switch" governance that has allowed criminal enterprises to exploit the nation’s most vulnerable seniors.
I. THE IMPOSSIBLE MATH OF LOS ANGELES COUNTY
The data cited by the House chairs in their January 13 letter to the HHS Office of Inspector General (OIG) is nothing short of staggering. Despite representing only a sliver of the national senior population, Los Angeles County now accounts for a massive 18% of all home health billing in the United States.
The numbers reveal a statistical anomaly that state and federal regulators missed for years:
Agency Density: LA County is home to nearly 2,000 hospice agencies—more than 36 U.S. states combined and 30 times the number found in states like Florida or New York.
The $120 Million Physician: Investigators highlighted a single physician who allegedly billed Medicare $120 million in one year, claiming to supervise an impossible 1,900 patients simultaneously.
The Shared Address Scandal: A 2022 audit revealed that over 112 hospice agencies were registered to the exact same physical address, a hallmark of "shell company" fraud.
II. THE "PAPER EMPIRE" REVEALED: STRIP MALLS AND WRECKING YARDS
Chairman Jason Smith’s assessment of the situation was clinical and devastating. He described a landscape where the "sanctity of healthcare" has been replaced by a criminal facade. "How is it possible that a hospice can operate out of a wrecking yard?" Smith questioned.
The investigation has uncovered that while home health agencies decreased by 6% nationally since 2019, they exploded by 46% in Los Angeles. Over 1,400 new agencies have appeared in the county since 2019, accounting for more than half of all new providers in the entire state of California.
The House Republican coalition argues that this growth was "rubber-stamped" by accrediting organizations that failed to verify locations or ownership, leading to a total breakdown of the federal enrollment process.
III. NEWSOM’S CALIFORNIA: THE NEW EPICENTER OF CORRUPTION
For Governor Gavin Newsom, the federal probe represents a political crisis of the highest order. Republican lawmakers have drawn direct comparisons between California’s systemic failures and recent scandals in other states, suggesting that Newsom’s government has been "asleep at the switch."
“Gavin Newsom’s California could just as well be another Minnesota,” Chairman Smith remarked, referencing past oversight failures in the Midwest. The Victorious American mandate for 2026 is built on the restoration of state-level accountability. Federal auditors estimate that hospice fraud alone cost Medicare $198 million in FY2023, while broader home health improper payments reached a sickening $1.2 billion.
The HHS OIG has now pledged a full, comprehensive audit by the end of fiscal year 2026, specifically identifying the patterns of "disproportionate growth and geographic clustering" that have made California a sanctuary for healthcare theft.
IV. ORGANIZED CRIME AND THE 2025 CRACKDOWN
The investigation is not just about paperwork; it is about dismantling criminal networks. In 2025, the Health Care Fraud Strike Force—reinvigorated by the administration’s focus on domestic security—made multiple high-profile arrests linked to Armenian organized crime groups. These networks are accused of laundering tens of millions of dollars through these "paper hospices" in the greater Los Angeles area.
While five such networks were dismantled last year, investigators believe they have only scratched the surface. The House Oversight and Investigations Subcommittee is now coordinating with federal watchdogs to schedule public hearings, with Rep. Guthrie vowing to use subpoena power to get clear answers from both state and federal agencies that allowed this theft to continue.
CONCLUSION: PROTECTING THE SOVEREIGNTY OF THE SENIOR
As the 119th Congress moves forward, the message from the House GOP chairs is clear: every dollar stolen by a fraudulent hospice is a dollar stolen from an American senior who needs real end-of-life care.
The 2026 Renaissance is about more than just economics; it is about the moral restoration of the American system. Rep. Vern Buchanan, chairman of the Ways and Means Subcommittee on Health, summarized the resolve of the new majority: “We are determined to shut this down.”
For Gavin Newsom, the "staggering" fraud scheme in his own backyard may prove to be the final indictment of his governance. For the Victorious American, it is yet another victory in the ongoing war against corruption and the restoration of national sovereignty.

JUDICIAL RECKONING
The return of national sovereignty and administrative lethality reached a new milestone this Thursday, April 9, 2026. A blockbuster ruling in Los Angeles has left the DNC establishment and globalist elite reeling.
A federal judge issued a preliminary injunction against California’s controversial "No Secret Police Act," blocking the state from prohibiting ICE agents from wearing masks. Judge Christina Snyder ruled the law unconstitutional, marking a decisive victory for President Donald J. Trump and the Department of Justice.
The court affirmed the Constitution’s Supremacy Clause, stating California cannot discriminate against federal officers while exempting its own law enforcement. Attorney General Pamela Bondi praised the ruling, emphasizing the administration’s zero-tolerance stance on harassment of federal agents.
This decision reflects the 2026 mandate: a legal framework prioritizing the safety of American officers over the sanctuary policies pushed by Governor Gavin Newsom. It signals a sweeping rollback of state overreach in immigration enforcement.
Meanwhile, in Texas, a federal jury delivered historic terrorism convictions against nine members of a radical antifa cell. The group was found guilty for a violent 2025 attack on an ICE detention facility that left a police officer shot in the neck.
Ringleader Benjamin Song faces potential life imprisonment after evidence proved the attack was a coordinated assault using explosives and rifles—not the “noise demonstration” the defense claimed. Prosecutors called the verdict a landmark affirmation of Trump’s domestic terror designation.
With Kash Patel at the FBI and Todd Blanche at the DOJ, the dismantling of extremist cells has accelerated. Federal agencies continue to secure detention centers like Prairieland against those attempting to destabilize the republic.
Governor Gavin Newsom attempted to spin the court ruling as a “win,” citing the upheld “No Vigilantes Act.” But the truth remains: the centerpiece of his anti-ICE agenda—the “No Secret Police Act”—has been effectively struck down.
The defeat exposes the weakening foundation of California’s sanctuary policies. While Sacramento prioritizes the “civil rights” of illegal aliens, the Trump administration is defending the constitutional rights of federal officers.
The week closes as a sweeping administrative triumph for the Trump-GOP platform. From Los Angeles courtrooms to Texas jury boxes, real results—not rhetoric—are forging the 2026 midterm shield.
With 5% GDP growth and a secure border, the nation is reclaiming its stability and sovereignty. America moves forward with vigilance, resolve, and a renewed commitment to law and order.
God bless the USA—and the leaders who refuse to bow to the swamp or the radical mob.
oFar Left 'Squad' Member Learns Her Fate As Her Primary Election is Called
Washington D.C. — The far-left “Squad” took another massive hit Tuesday night as Missouri Democrat Rep. Cori Bush was soundly defeated in her primary by challenger Wesley Bell, who led by double digits with 54.9% to Bush’s 41.8%.
Bush, one of the most extreme voices in Congress, joins Rep. Jamaal Bowman as the second Squad member to lose her seat this cycle. Her defeat is a clear rejection of the radical socialist, anti-police, pro-Hamas agenda she has pushed since entering Congress in 2021.
Bush rose to prominence after participating in the Ferguson riots and has spent years promoting false narratives about Michael Brown while calling for defunding the police — even as violent crime soared in her St. Louis district. She has repeatedly aligned herself with pro-Hamas protesters, blamed Israel for the October 7 massacre, and faced controversy over allegedly funneling thousands of campaign dollars to her husband for “security services” while demanding less police protection for her constituents.
Republicans celebrated the win with well-deserved mockery. Pro-Trump comedian Terrance K. Williams posted:
“A ‘BLACK JOB’ IS SOMETHING CORI BUSH DOES NOT HAVE. OH HAPPY DAY! She is the second Squad member to lose her seat! I can’t wait until they are all gone.”
Florida GOP Rep. Matt Gaetz, who served with Bush on the House Judiciary Committee, sarcastically noted:
“I will miss Cori Bush missing every committee meeting.”
Students for Trump co-founder Ryan Fournier added:
“The Squad’s Cori Bush has LOST her primary. Join me in saying GOOD RIDDANCE! Hamas might be hiring, Cori!”
Even actor Michael Rapaport, a vocal Israel supporter, celebrated:
“Tonight at the rally they said let’s bring back ‘JOY’ to politics and boom CORI BUSH is done with Politics…. I feel JOY all of a sudden.”
This is the second straight blow to the radical Squad. Jamaal Bowman lost his primary earlier after endorsing pro-Hamas demonstrators on college campuses. Both Bush and Bowman blamed their defeats on pro-Israel funding from AIPAC rather than admitting the truth: their extreme, anti-American, and anti-Israel positions have become toxic to voters.
The radical left’s Squad is crumbling because the American people are rejecting their agenda of defunding police, embracing socialism, supporting radical Islamists, and putting foreign interests above American citizens. Voters want secure borders, safe streets, strong economy, and leaders who put America First — not performative radicals who miss committee meetings and push policies that hurt their own districts.
Under President Donald J. Trump’s leadership, the Republican Party is becoming the party of working Americans, law and order, and common sense. Meanwhile, the Democrat Party continues its death spiral — hemorrhaging voters, losing favorability, and watching its most extreme members get rejected at the ballot box.
Cori Bush’s defeat is not just a loss for one radical congresswoman. It is a rejection of the entire Squad’s toxic ideology. The American people are waking up and choosing sanity over socialism, strength over weakness, and America First over America Last.
More Squad members are on the ballot soon. The trend is clear: radicalism is losing, and the America First movement is winning.
