Vice President JD Vance pledged to crack down on the misuse of government funds Monday, the same day the Justice Department committed more than a billion dollars to President Donald Trump’s allies – a move critics decried as naked corruption.
In continuing his anti-fraud crusade at a rally in Missouri, Vance condemned billions of dollars in alleged Medicaid fraud, claiming, “When people steal billions of dollars from the Medicare program, that is theft from you, and it’s also theft from the people who use the Medicare program to pay their bills.”
