Approximately 3:30 this afternoon, our plainclothes officers and agents that consistently patrol the outer perimeter of the White House complex identified a suspicious individual that appeared to have a firearm. They called in support from our marked uniform Secret Service police to make contact with that individual. Upon making contact, that individual fled briefly on foot foot, withdrew a firearm and fired in the direction of our agents and officers. They returned fire and engaged. That individual was hit. He's since been transported to the hospital. I have no, no comments on his condition. I can tell you that at least one, we believe only one bystander was hit by the suspect. That individual, it's a juvenile, did not sustain any life threatening, threatening injuries but he's also receiving treatment at the hospital.

A (24:29)

A juvenile was hit by the gunman and then that apparently was a 15 year old boy. A 15 year old boy we've got was, was shot that by the gunman. Secret Service, this is the New York Times. Secret Service shoots and wounds armed man near Washington Monument. A 15 year old boy was also hit. The motorcade of Vice President JD Vance had just passed through the area shortly before the shooting. The Secret Service shooting and wounding the armed man Monday afternoon just south of the White House in a burst of gunfire that also grazed that young bystander in an area that was packed with pedestrians. There was no indication that the man who was taken to a hospital with multiple gunshot wounds was targeting anyone in the executive complex. And Chris McDonald, a congressional affairs official with the Secret Service, President Trump was not in any danger. There's currently no known nexus between the incident and the White House. J.D. vansen had just passed through in his motorcade in that area, a heavily trafficked route for official vehicles as well as people visiting the nearby Washington Monument shortly before the confrontation took place. The condition of the armed man, not known. A firearm was recovered at the scene. The 15 year old was being treated for non life threatening gunshot wounds. So that's the, that's the update there. Now look, I, you know, this story starts with a guy was carrying a gun in a concealed way apparently. And you know, I, I happen to think that Americans should be able to carry concealed all over the country. I mean that's, that's a second amendment right. When you draw your weapon and then you start firing at police officers, that's how you get gunned down. So I, I can't tell you anything really about this guy other than the limited information we know. But here's what I do know. If he drew his weapon on cops, of course he's going to get shot. Psycho. So don't do that. Don't draw your weapon on police officers. Don't do that. So guy, guy gets gunned down. But here's the Secret Service in yet another exchange of gunfire, this time striking their target, this time striking the guy who was firing the gun and sent him to the hospital. Again, condition unknown at this hour. All right, more ON Vice President J.D. vance coming up in a second. I want to talk to you about the fraud that he's pursuing because our next guest is digging in on a bunch of fraud and it's caught the attention of the Vice President of the United States and it involves the state of Ohio. That's where J.D. vance comes from, of course. This is Luke Rosiak's reporting. He says that 94 Medicaid home health companies are all apparently in one office building that doesn't have any windows in Ohio. They're taking more than $66 million of your money. And apparently these so called home health companies provide free butlers to immigrants. To immigrants. Do you have a free butler, ladies and gentlemen? Anybody? I need a free butler. Where's my free butler? And by the way, it's not free. It's not free. Is you and I have to pay for the butlers for the immigrants. $66 million of our money going to a windowless building allegedly for bottling immigrants. Is bottling the correct term? Is that right? Is bottling a word? Bottling? I don't. Is buttling a real word? I don't know. It doesn't matter. I guess the more important thing is why is our money being stolen. Luke Rosiak's digging in on this and J.D. vance says these shocking allegations, if true, show why the fraud task force work is so important. JD Vance is directing the task force to look into it and to take immediate action to prosecute any fraudsters involved and stop all further payments as appropriate. They're digging into it and chat tells me buttling is a word. It's buddling. I thought it was. I thought it was a word. Somewhere deep in the recesses of my mind, I was thinking that buttling was a thing. I think it is. Yes, indeed. All right, we'll get to our guest here in just a moment.

And he, and he, he's got a huge story that he's uncorking right now. Luke Rosiak joins us. He's an investigative reporter for the Daily Wire, and he's here on the program today. Hello, Luke. Good to see you again, sir.

C (31:35)

Hey, Vince. Thanks for having me.

A (31:36)

Okay, man. So you have gone. I noticed, I was like, where's Luke? Luke had gone dark. Luke had disappeared and basically gone into witness protection. You just completely fell off the face of the earth. But the reason you disappeared is because you've spent the last few months digging into a massive, massive story. Tell us about it.

C (31:55)

Yeah, you know, it gets into what Medicaid really is spent on. And this is a huge portion of the federal budget. And when Doge was looking for things to cut or even going back decades, we were always told, well, Medicaid, you can't touch that. It's non discretionary funding. It's just people going to the doctor. It's not like something you can look into and say, well, we should cut this program or we should cut that program. But it turns out that it's a huge pool of money that is spent with almost no oversight in some of the sections that I looked at.

A (32:28)

Yes, so, so just so people understand Medicaid money, the way it's distributed, the feds just give it to the states and then the states kind of dole it out as they will. Right?

C (32:37)

Yeah. And I think that's at the root of the problem. It's the other people's money problem. Right. I mean, so if like 70% of it is coming from the feds, I think some of the states don't even care if it's being squandered. They're like, yeah, maybe it'll, you know, go into a trickle down into our economy some way that'll be helpful. I think that's what happened in Minnesota where a lot of the stuff, basically all the fraud you hear about in Minnesota, except maybe the daycares, is all has to do with these Medicaid waivers which give certain states permission to bill the federal taxpayers more than other states. And that's what I looked into in general, these waivers. And that specifically took me to a red state, the state of Ohio.

A (33:23)

Okay, so you go to Ohio and you say it's a red state. So you would hope that the Republicans would be managing things well, but you found that unfortunately that's not the case, that there's. That there seems to be a big mess in Ohio. What did you find?

C (33:37)

Well, they have a similar waiver to Minnesota and some other states where they pay not only just home health care, which is like somebody, a nurse to come to your house, but they took it further and they allow what's called personal services, which I call butlers for Somalis. These are taxpayer funded butlers for Somalis. And they will come and they will cook for you, clean for you. Maybe you need somebody to do your hair, anything you need, just sort of a personal helper. And you know, originally this started for like if you're. As an alternative to going to a nursing home. That was the argument, and it's one that makes sense in theory that if we were going to spend $100,000 putting you in a nursing home, if we could somehow avo avoid that by spending 40 grand spending somebody coming to your house to like do your nursing, okay, it saves money. But the problem is nobody really fakes their way into a nursing home. Nobody wants to go sit with their head in a, in a bowl of apple applesauce, you know, in a nursing home. There's no incentive to pretend to be more sick to get into a nursing home. But if you can say, well, I'm just sick, but I don't want to go to a nursing home, just, you know, give, give me stuff in my House, suddenly people want to pretend to be sick. You know, you have a 65 year old mom, she gets a note from the doctor and suddenly you've untapped these Medicaid waivers. Now previously to get nursing services you'd have to be a nurse, but you do personal services. These butlers that can be anyone. And so what you get is Somalis are getting paid to hang out with their own family members. So best case scenario, they have a butler, worst case, the butler is just their own family member. So really they're just getting paid to hang out with their family and do family stuff like cleaning your house or cooking your family family member dinner once in a while.

A (35:41)

So I noticed that you went, you tracked down a building that we just were talking about this a moment ago. You tracked down a building, an office building. And fellas, I'm gonna put this on screen. Let me, let me put this back on screen, if you would. If we can go full screen here. Here is an image of the building that you shared on social media. This is the exterior. There are no visible windows on this building. This is in Ohio. And you say that it contains a ton of these so called home health companies. In fact, they're 94 of them in this building. And among those 94 companies, they've taken $66 million in taxpayer money. Tell us about this building.

C (36:20)

And yeah, so that's in the northeast, Columbus. It's where like most of the refugees and Africans live. And there's a whole street like that with a lot of big office buildings that inside they just have these little LLCs that nobody is really inside of the, the companies. There's no like customers going there. But you also drive down the street and you can see like little, you know, standalone ones. Like you drive down the street and all the other businesses have just gone because it's more lucrative just to bill your bill the government to hang out with your own family. And so the reason that there's these little businesses is if I, if I'm getting paid to hang out with my 65 year old mom, I don't have a way to get paid by Medicaid. So I become an employee of a company that bills Medicaid, takes a cut for itself and then pays me an hourly rate. That's just how it works because you need an LLC that has what they call the NPI to build Medicaid. And so that's what's fascinating to me here is that's where you get these companies that are getting like 1 million to $10 million, sometimes a year, sometimes over a couple of years. Like, it can be millions of dollars a year easily. And so we used to talk, and it sounds so quaint now, about, like, the welfare queen, and maybe it's a woman on, on, on welfare, and she gets $500 a month and she buys food that we think is too nice. That seems so small compared to what's going on now. The real welfare queens are the providers of poverty services. Now, they're corporations that are getting paid by the government to ostensibly provide services to the people whose incomes are low enough to, like, qualify them for Medicaid.

A (38:12)

And there's very little evidence that they're really doing much like, service at all to begin with. I mean, I keep seeing these images and videos of people buying, like, May box and luxury vehicles and just all this nonsense and dumping money into houses, sending it overseas, and thinking like, this is of no benefit to the American taxpayer, yet we're having our money taken from us in order to just be stolen.

C (38:36)

Yeah, exactly. And I went out to Columbus and what I saw was buildings that no sane person would think these are like, great businesses that definitely earned, like, millions of dollars a year. Like, these buildings are totally empty for the most part. Like, most of the offices have nobody in them. They've got mail piling up. Sometimes they have these signs on the door that say, we're out to lunch. But it just seems like it's just like a lie. There's just like something is not right. And you look into the people that own these businesses. They oftentimes have tax debts. So they're getting millions of dollars from the government, from taxpayers, and they don't even pay their own taxes. And it's like, how could you get a million dollars a year and you haven't. You can't even pay your taxes.

A (39:22)

So. That's a great question. So in addition to that, I saw in your reporting you said some of the recipients who've been taking this money also have criminal records in the past. So how is it that someone with a criminal record would qualify for receiving federal taxpayer money?

C (39:40)

Yeah, I don't know. I mean, I'm going to be rolling out stories, sort of case studies every day this week, and you'll. You'll hear a crazy one where this guy, I have audio of him talking about his extensive criminal record. There's another one I'm going to get into that I kind of teased so far, which is there was a guy who's an accountant and he lost his accountant license because he was Busted for stealing federal funds. And then he went and he created a Medicaid business using the address of a convicted money launderer's teenage son. So it's like, oh, this 17 year old is creating this $7 million Medicaid business. I wonder how a 17 year old is doing that. Oh, it's really this other guy and, oh, this teenager's dad just got out of prison. But the state of Ohio is like, yeah, you can just have $7 million, it's fine. I mean, 70% of that 7 million comes from the federal government anyway. It's, it's not our state budget. So, yeah, I mean, I went there and I found similar to like what Nick Shirley found in Minnesota. But I also did what, you know, that I've done for a long time, just doing my database stuff and my research and carefully going through everything. And I worked with the Capital Research center and you know how they're great researchers over there. We were really meticulous about everything and we went through the backstories of these people. So it kind of builds on what Nick Shirley did and it found similar conclusions. And then it took it further by being like, yeah, this wasn't like, it wasn't like, it just looked weird. But there's really an explanation. Yes, the explanation is actually so much worse when you really go into the backgrounds of these individuals.

A (41:23)

So one of the only reasons that you were in a position to do this is because the Trump administration open sourced the Medicaid data. Right. So in other words, they posted a massive database of Medicaid expenditures and the things that they were supposedly spent on, just the, the codes that indicate what that money was supposedly spent on and what company handled the money. Is that right?

C (41:44)

Yeah, it's a huge deal and I think it's maybe the biggest move for government transparency ever. Barack Obama used to talk about being the most transparent president and also using data and technology to make government more efficient, but he never released this. This is way more money than anything else and it never made any sense to conceal it because there's no information about patients in here. We're not to dive into somebody's medical business that's private. These are corporations that are getting paid your money. And if we don't know they're even getting paid, it's literally impossible for anybody to be like, that's fraud, or to alert the government that something doesn't seem right. So it's like, no wonder these people were so blatant, so emboldened, so indignant, so entitled. They Never thought they were going to get caught because our own government wasn't even telling you the corporations that were getting millions of dollars. And so I do wonder if some of the Democrats kind of knew this wasn't going to look right because this should have been something Barack Obama would have been excited to release and find efficiencies in the health care system and to stick it to corporations that are defrauding taxpayers and sometimes not even paying their own taxes.

A (42:56)

The national debt is approaching $40 trillion right now in the United States of America. Among the biggest line items we have in our entire government are Medicaid and Medicare expenditures. And what we keep hearing now by virtue of reporting like yours, Luke, is that they are the source of massive amounts of fraud. What is the scale of this, do you think? I mean, I know that you'd be venturing a guess here, but the closer you look at this, how much fraud do you think is dominating this system right now?

C (43:23)

I think that part of it depends on how you define fraud. I think some of these programs are themselves essentially have little utility or it's impossible to prove fraud to extent that you would need in criminal court because of the nature of the program. The programs are so inherently difficult to actually verify that in my opinion they should all count as essentially fraud, waste and abuse and we need to get rid of them. And you're certainly talking about the hundreds of billions of dollars over the last several years. I mean, let's say $100 billion a year would be reasonable, maybe more. And so when people were trying to cut the budget and doge was doing its thing, there would be people on the left who said, you guys are wasting your time. There is no fat in the budget. Because you look at a pie chart and it's, as you said, a huge chunk of the budget is just Medicaid. And they're like, there's nothing to see there. Once you open up Medicaid as a place where you can find savings, maybe we can present, prevent our country from, from, from going bankrupt and we're all wind up as, as slaves to China. And that's a good thing. We should all be about getting rid of total waste that's doing nothing but just to enrich a few corporations. But I think we have to open up the conversation about. Well, so first of all, just to throw in some numbers to your questions. I mean, the state of Ohio, it's like half of its budget is Medicaid. And then you look at the Medicaid spending in Ohio, it's basically doubled over the last few years. And so what's happened here in Ohio is sending it and us in general as a country on the course for financial ruin. And the component that I'm looking at this week gets to the personal services, those butlers. Can we afford to send people to people's houses and just do like, regular family member stuff? Nothing medical, nothing that requires training? Can we afford it in general? And can we afford it knowing that some portion of that is fraud? And it would be very difficult to prove otherwise because we're not like, we don't have, like, cameras on, like, every old lady's house. And that's what I think that especially when you introduce immigration from places like Somalia, if they're going to start exploiting programs that maybe have existed for years without too much difficulty, it may be that certain things that we've historically gotten away with just based on the. The general goodwill of Americans, unfortunately, they may not. May no longer be viable programs for anybody that wants to the country. You know, anybody who thinks money doesn't have infinite supply may have to conclude that we can no longer do these kind of programs.

A (46:11)

Okay, so I mentioned that the Vice President of the United States is clearly aware of your reporting. He posted about it on X this week, saying that he's directing the task force to look into what you have discovered. Tell us what you can about that.

C (46:27)

So I think that I'm gonna keep rolling out, including later today, addresses and buildings and company names and dollar amounts that are billing huge amounts for people who are basically. One guy told me 70% of these people are just the relatives of the people they're spending time with. So the butlers. I have a lot of red flags that I'm going to be disclosing in the stories that really raise questions about how legitimate these businesses are. And they're going to have to see, is this something that were rules broken or were the rules themselves kind of like idiotic, if you want to say that, or toothless, where it's like they can just blatantly do it and be like, yep, you guys made this Medicaid waiver. You gave us this waiver where Medicaid was supposed to be for healthcare services, but the waiver says it can also be for butlers. So that's what we did. And how are you going to prove that? I wasn't actually at my cousin Omar's house last year at 3pm you know, do you have footage of it? How are you going to convict me?

A (47:37)

Yeah, it's craziness. But you are, you are grateful that the vice president is on this.

C (47:41)

Oh, super, super grateful. And you know, the other guy in charge of that anti fraud task force, Andrew Ferguson, is a really competent lawyer. We know him from here in Virginia and now he's the head of the Federal Trade Commission. Really great law duo there that if anyone could do it, they could.

A (47:58)

Yes.

C (47:59)

So J.D. vance is obviously from Ohio. This is a red state. If they can't get Ohio under control, to me, this takes on even, it's even more infuriating than Minnesota. But yeah, there's the fraud angle and then there's going to be the discussions about whether maybe the waivers just need to be terminated and we end this program outright because maybe fraud, if they can, maybe fraud is detection, is a game of whack a mole where you put, you know, Muhammad Ahmed in jail and then his brother Ahmed Mohammed opens up a new company and it's just like, all right, they're just, you know, you get rid of one, another one pops up, they're moving assets around. Maybe at the end of the day, is this making us feel good, but we're still headed for bankruptcy is the long term solution and maybe the much easier solution, just getting rid of this program that says we're going to pay you to hang out with your family members.

A (48:55)

Well, this is also what happens when you open your borders at the same time and create a welfare state. So when you do that, you destroy an entire country. And we're witnessing that if it isn't stopped and you are a part of the solution to stopping it by telling the truth about it and getting the right people on top of it. Luke, we are looking forward to the rest of your reporting. Thank you so much for your time today, brother. Good to talk to you as always.

C (49:18)

You too, Vince.

A (49:19)

There he is. Luke Rosiak of the Daily Wire. Check out his reporting on this subject. Appreciate this guy and the work that him and the team have put in the Capital Research center, put into this really, really important stuff. That is what we call service journalism. That matters a great deal. We have a country that's worth saving from the people who would wish to do us harm, who've been stealing from us. Crazy. Speaking of the theft going on in America, I'm also concerned about the theft of our elections, the election rigging. Stephen Miller had another banger over the White House yesterday. He posted the following. He said the combination of illegal alien apportionment, flawed censuses, and unconstitutionally racially gerrymandered districts has created an artificial 40 plus House seats for Democrats over 40. Ill gotten House seats by the Democrats. Let me put that differently. That's election rigging. What Stephen Miller is describing is election rigging. If you get 40 unearned house seats because you've allowed illegal aliens to pour into our country, you've aided and abetted that. You use them for headcounts in the United States Census. The census overcounts blue states and undercounts red states. And then you racially gerrymander districts in order to accrue power. You're stealing from the American people. You're diminishing the power of the average American's vote. You're watering down voters. And the effect is that 40 over 40 seats in the House right now have been stolen by Democrats by this math. It's amazing. It's just amazing when you put it in those terms, what's happening to the country right now. Which is why we have been, you and I have been so locked in on election integrity, the Save America act, and getting some of these districts sorted out so that they're not drawn in a racist way anymore. Last week we got the big Supreme Court decision, Louisiana v. Cale, Louisiana v. Collet, where the justices ruled that racist districting is completely unconstitutional. Can't do that. You can't draw districts on the basis of race. And as a result, Democrats are set to lose power because if you strip out the racism, Democrats lose power. That's the history of their whole party. And so that's what the Supreme Court did last week. Now, yesterday the Supreme Court issued another order related to that ruling. And this will get into something of a technicality here, but I'll just quickly explain. It's easy to understand, which is after every Supreme Court opinion, it takes 32 days typically to officially transmit it back to the state courts, to the lower courts. It's a 32 day sequence of events. The reason that there's a 32 day pause between the opinion being issued publicly and being sent and being officially sent to the state courts is because it allows the, the, the people who are involved, the appellants, an opportunity to file a, an appeal for rehearing with the Supreme Court. You can appeal to the Supreme Court for a rehearing. Now that's, that's not something that you almost ever see because the court almost never grants a rehearing. In fact, the last time there were re hearings was back in the 50s and the 60s. I think it was the 50s. For a substantive issue. It's really basically, if the court had Some sort of substantial error in law and somebody wants to make an appeal and go, no, no, no, you really screwed this up and here's why. And then the court would rehear it. But this, this almost never happens. It's been a very, very long time since it has. So it. But it's just, this is the custom, 32 days. Yesterday, the Supreme Court said, we don't have time to waste. This decision affects this year's elections immediately. We can't let this continue. So yesterday, Justice Alito issued a ruling saying we don't wait the full 32 days. We're sending it to the court now, is what they're saying. They're fast tracking the Louisiana voting map decision yesterday, in the words of the New York Times. And if you look closely at what the, what Justice Alito did here yesterday is kind of an amazing, just, this is a truly, truly amazing order because of what Alito said and what Justice Katanji Brown Jackson said in dissent. Here's what Alito said to permit the losing party time to file a petition for rehearing. The clerk of Court ordinarily waits 32 days after the entry of the court's judgment to send the opinion and the certified copy to the clerk of the lower court. This period is subject to adjustment, he says. And he goes on to say that it needs to be sent immediately and that Justice Alito is joined by Justice Thomas and Justice Gorsuch in this ruling. So they sent, they send this out yesterday immediately. Now he goes on to absolutely tear apart Ketanji Brown Jackson here. And the reason for that is because she issues a dissent yesterday complaining that the court issued this ruling quickly. Let me get to her dissent first and I'll get back to Alito's reaction to it. This is like, great. This is like, this is the kind of like, this is like Supreme Court UFC to watch these guys fighting. And Justice Katanji Brown Jackson is completely outmatched in the octagon here. Look at this. She dissents. And she says the court's decision has spawned chaos. And in the state of Louisiana, she goes on to state that you've already had people conducting early voting in the state, so therefore, you can't do this now. Which is interesting because in Virginia, Democrats are taking the exact opposite position. Early voting doesn't matter. It's only about election day as they try and steal all of the congressional seats there. But here the Democrats are saying, well, early vote already began, so we have to, we have to care about those early voters. And she goes on to basically accuse justice Alito and the rest of the majority of being political. She's saying that this has a strong political undercurrent. Strong political undercurrent. And the court is engaged in playing politics here. She alleges we should be avoiding the appearance of partiality. She says we should stay on the sidelines, take no position. Of course the election's barreling forward. She says. Today, the court chooses the opposite. Not content to have decided the law and now takes steps to influence its implementation. The court's decision to buck our usual practice and issue the judgment forthwith is tantamount to an approval of Louisiana's rush to pause the ongoing election in order to pass a new map. And she says that this is terrible. It's going to produce ill will and distrust. The court is unshackling itself from all of these constraints. It's diving into the fray. Those principles give way to power. This abandon is unwarranted and unwise. I dissent. So she attacks the majority for taking the position that it did. Alito doesn't take this lying down. So in addition to issuing the ruling here, he also comes in and he says, I need to smack the dissent around a little bit here. Look at his statement on the subject. He said the dissent in this suit levels charges that cannot go unanswered. The dissent would require that the 2026 congressional elections in Louisiana be held under a map that has been held to be unconstitutional. The dissent doesn't claim it's too late for the state legislature or the district court to adopt the new map that complies with the Constitution. Nor does the dissent even assert that it is not feasible for the elections to be held under such a map. Instead, the dissent offers two reasons for its proposed course of action. One is trivial at best. The other is baseless and insulting. Baseless and insulting. He goes on to say that the 32 day rule can be modified. We don't have to do that. We can push it through. But then he goes on to say, the dissent goes on to claim that our decision represents an unprincipled use of power. That is a groundless and utterly irresponsible charge. What principle has the court violated? The principle that the rule of 32 days should never be shortened even when there's a good reason to do it. The principle that we should never take any action that might unjustifiably be criticized as partisan. The dissent accuses the court of unshackling itself from constraints. It's the dissent's rhetoric that lacks restraint. A well deserved smackdown here from Justice Alito to Ketanji Brown Jackson. She's like, she didn't have to say anything. She could have kept her mouth shut. She could have let Alito just file the order and then just sat there and been miserable. But instead she let her emotional incontinence be on display. And it's a really key reminder of something that you know kind of instinctively, but it just needs to be said out loud. Ketanji Brown Jackson, a lot like her fellow but smarter colleagues Elena Kagan and Justice Sotomayor. They're Democrats. The whole point of their presence on the court is to always increase power for Democrats. Always. There is no constitutional lens through which they are filtering their judgments. Their judgments are predicated on how does this help the Democrat Party and Elena Kagan. We already know that she tried to run out the clock on this decision to begin with in order to prevent us from having maps that were deracialized, that removed the racial prejudice and thus removed Democrat power. She did not want that to come to pass, which is why she delayed the dissent. Ketanji Brown Jackson was trying to manufacture yet another delay tactic. She wanted to stall out the court's decision for as long as possible to make it so that there was no chance, no reasonable chance to redraw these maps and thank God for Justice Alito. One of the blessings of our government to have a guy like Justice Alito alongside Justice Clarence Thomas who are up there fighting every single day for decency, adherence to the Constitution, loyalty to what the founders intended and to the American people. That's what we need. And thank God we have some of that on the court right now. All right, I've got a lot more to get to. We'll do it today on the Vince Show. Coming up, the big national radio show.
