To justify Trump's heinous attacks on our social safety nets to pay for tax cuts for the very wealthy in his Big Ugly bill, the Trump administration has created a federal Fraud Task Force, run by JD Vance, to root out all those fraudsters who take advantage of federal monies.

The public has been robbed by Trump's illegal tariffs, which have raised the price of goods and services, and the Iran war, which has skyrocketed fuel costs. He implemented massive cuts in federal aid, Medicare, Medicaid, SNAP, and ACA subsidies that have crippled many households to give himself a tax cut.

Will this Task Force investigate the fraud perpetrated on the taxpayer's money when AG Todd Blanche tried to set up a $1.76 billion "anti-weaponizing" slush fund to pay funds to people they claim supposedly were unfairly targeted by the federal government?

You know, like those miscreants who were convicted of crimes for attacking the US Capitol to overthrow the 2020 election, but were all pardoned by Demented Donald?

"If you tried to steal money from the American taxpayer, if you took funds that ought by right have gone to American small businesses or American workers, not only we're gonna cut you off, but we're gonna prosecute you," Vance said.

I'd say that slush fund qualifies for investigation, even if Blanche has claimed he will not do it so he can get approved as an actual AG.

"I think the American people have every right to expect that when they write the check to the IRS, when they write a check to the federal government, that money is gonna go where the law says that it should go and not to fraudsters," Vance continued.

If only the Trump administration could focus on lowering the cost of goods, fuel, housing, and healthcare, his poll numbers would be much better heading into the midterms. But he's ditched his constitutional duty as president. The administration cannot help the public at large because every one of Trump's policies has failed miserably, and he refuses to change course in any way.

Trump is the ultimate perpetual fraud.
