CHICAGO FOP PRESIDENT calls Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson a coward. The Chicago FOP President just went on camera and called Mayor Brandon Johnson a coward — and he had receipts. Teen takeovers are happening every single weekend in Chicago. Cars destroyed. Businesses ransacked. A 14-year-old killed after the city’s Christmas tree lighting. And the mayor? Still calling it a “trend.”
In this video we break down every angle:
🔴 FOP President John Catanzara calls Johnson a coward on record and explains why — it’s not just weakness, it’s a political calculation about optics
🔴 Back in 2023, Johnson refused to call the South Loop 7-Eleven looting “mob action” — instead warning reporters not to call the teens “baby Al Capones” — even though mob action is a legal term under Illinois law
🔴 In summer 2025, Chicago City Council passed a snap curfew ordinance — the police superintendent himself asked for it — Johnson vetoed it. The first mayoral veto in Chicago in 19 years. The override failed. Months later a 14-year-old was killed at the Christmas tree lighting
🔴 Alderman Brian Hopkins said it directly: “When the blood sheds, it is on them”
🔴 An allegation that officers were secretly told NOT to make arrests — and the FOP president did not deny it
🔴 The racial double standard argument — and why the framing erases the Black and Brown residents who are the actual victims
🔴 Parents are the first line of defense — but when the home fails, law enforcement has to be the backstop. Johnson removed that backstop and replaced it with a social media post
We find the receipts. We stay hungry. -

First it was Minnesota with billions of dollars in fraud. Now it is California. It has been discovered that California got over $280 billion dollars in medicare fraud. Where did the money go? The buck stops with California governor Gavin Newsom, a man who has his eye on the 2028 Presidential Race. Governor Gavin Newsom wants to become the President of the United States. Another cash strapped state, heavy set ILLINOIS Governor JB Pritzker also has his eye in running on the Democratic ticket for President of the United States.
From Minnesota to California: Billions in Projected Health Care Fraud and the Challenge of Accountability in Blue States
Spotlights now shine on Minnesota and California, where sprawling state health care programs face mounting fraud allegations and criticism for lax prevention, particularly under Democratic governors. In Minnesota, federal prosecutors and auditors uncovered major potential losses in Medicaid. By late 2025, a Minnesota U.S. Attorney estimated that 14 high-risk Medicaid services could account for $9 billion in fraud out of $18 billion billed over five or six years, with at least half of these services flagged as improper. The federal government has moved to recover funds, prosecute fraudulent provider schemes, and shore up weak audit controls. Some scams siphoned money from programs meant for people with disabilities, children, and COVID-19 relief. The drain on taxpayer dollars has sparked concern across party lines.
A recent report claims that since Governor Gavin Newsom took office, California has lost at least $180 billion—and possibly as much as $280 billion—to fraud, waste, and abuse in major programs. Most of these staggering losses are tied to Medi-Cal and unemployment insurance. The report draws on state audits, official statements, and expert estimates, using a conservative 15% fraud rate for Medi-Cal spending, which ballooned after the 2019 expansion. Billions in fraudulent COVID unemployment claims are included in the tally. California’s attorney general has acknowledged that Medi-Cal fraud likely drains billions of dollars each year, with persistent trouble spots in hospice, home health, eligibility checks, and organized fraud rings that use stolen identities and fake providers. Recent probes have exposed massive schemes billing Medicare and Medi-Cal for phantom or unnecessary services, costing hundreds of millions. Where the money ends up is often a mystery, but much of it likely lands in the hands of fraudulent providers, collusive actors, ineligible recipients, and organized crime. These groups took advantage of weak oversight, especially as enrollment surged during the pandemic. Audits have repeatedly flagged failures, from poor eligibility checks to sluggish responses to red flags. While California’s Medicaid fraud unit has recovered some funds and even outperformed other states in certain years, critics say these wins are dwarfed by the overall losses. Much of the stolen money vanished through shell companies and untraceable services, often enriching organized crime. Nationwide, improper payments in Medicare and Medicaid—whether due to errors, fraud, or payments for services never rendered—total tens of billions each year, especially in states with the largest programs.
Elected leaders bear the responsibility for keeping these programs running smoothly. Governor Gavin Newsom has brushed off some reports as politically driven and pushed back against federal oversight. Now term-limited, Newsom has hinted at a 2028 presidential bid, boosting his national profile as a leading Democrat and outspoken Trump critic. His book tours, media blitz, and policy pushes all point to White House aspirations. Many Californians see his out-of-state travels as part of his campaign-in-waiting.
Illinois Governor JB Pritzker is also rumored to have his eye on the 2028 presidential race. He leads another Democratic state wrestling with financial headaches, especially ballooning Medicaid costs. Despite ongoing budget woes, Pritzker has signaled he may run for reelection. These stories point to a deeper, systemic issue. Federal and state health care systems, with Medicaid spending in the hundreds of billions, remain plagued by persistent fraud. Oversight problems cross party lines; both Democratic and Republican-led states face similar troubles. Florida, for instance, has shown that large-scale Medicare fraud is hardly unique to California or Minnesota. Systemic flaws fuel widespread fraud. While some states strive to serve beneficiaries and claw back lost funds, critics say slow eligibility checks and politically driven policies leave the door wide open for abuse.
Taxpayers deserve tougher oversight and real accountability. Key reforms should include real-time audits, cutting-edge tools like artificial intelligence for claim checks, swift removal of fraudulent providers, and a commitment to accountability that rises above partisanship. As governors with presidential dreams hit the campaign trail, voters should ask whether these leaders can truly protect state finances. Their track record with billions at stake offers a preview of how they might handle the nation’s purse strings. The $280 billion figure cited here surpasses conservative estimates and is hotly contested by Newsom’s supporters, who argue that fraud and improper payment claims are overstated. In Minnesota, the numbers reflect prosecutorial allegations, not confirmed losses.
- Accuracy: The term “Medicare fraud” was used, but most of the referenced cases pertain to Medicaid (a state-federal program) or mixed federal-state programs; Medicare is primarily a federal program. Relevant distinctions have been noted. Where did the funds go? It is nearly impossible to answer without being overly prescriptive. Recommendations: incorporate local data, audit findings, and Department of Justice statements. Determining the final destination of the funds is challenging without unsupported assumptions. Recommendations: incorporate local data, audit findings, Department of Justice statements, and clear calls for reform. For visuals, use public-domain images related to Medicaid spending and fraud. If you prefer a more neutral perspective, a focus on Pritzker or Illinois, a shorter version, or additional sources, please specify.
