HORROR: Vice President Vance Tells Story of Elderly Man Who DIED From Neglect as Medicaid Fraudster Got Rich Neglecting Him

Vice President JD Vance on Tuesday told a horrifying story about how fraud affects the most vulnerable among us while speaking at an anti-fraud roundtable, revealing that an elderly man was killed due to a Medicaid fraudster’s neglect. 

Vance, the Chairman of the White House Task Force to Eliminate Fraud, and Federal Trade Commission Chairman Andrew Ferguson, the Task Force Vice Chair, held a roundtable on Tuesday with over a dozen State Attorneys General to discuss the Trump Administration’s nationwide crackdown on federal benefits fraud.

After brief remarks from the White House officials, they held a private meeting with the Attorneys General.

Before closing his public remarks, Vance emphasized that the fraud schemes “are not victimless crimes,” reminding the country of what consequences fraud victims could face, including death.

In a recent indictment in Minnesota, Vance said, a man who was being reimbursed by the Medicaid program to provide services to elderly patients, “was providing nothing, no services, no help, no check-ins.”

Because of this, one of his patients under his watch died “after months of being neglected by the caretaker who was getting reimbursed by the American people.”

Still, one day before the man died, the fraudster submitted another reimbursement for “services he never provided for a man he never cared for.”

George Washington, Father of the Country, Killed by Doctors

The grim circumstances behind the death of George Washington (1732-1799), America’s first president and popularly known as the Father of the Country, are not wholly unknown. The details have been reported by historians for more than two centuries.

What’s strange about this dry biographical knowledge is that it is not reported with shock and alarm and hence never conveyed to popular culture with lessons for our lives. This is because Washington’s physicians were following standard protocols when they bled him to death.

The facts: Washington came down with a throat infection. Three doctors, all convinced of the settled wisdom of the healing arts deployed since the Middle Ages, participated in draining blood from his body, to the point that they took 5 pints or fully half his blood, while giving him an enema on top of it all.

They literally drained the life out of him, not from malice but simply by following the established protocols as recommended by the best physicians at the time.

To invoke a popular phrase, where is the outrage? Nineteenth-century biographies reported the details but celebrated Washington for his bravery in enduring the treatment, then called phlebotomy, which was considered the best science.

John Marshall’s (later Justice) famous early biography, published in five volumes from 1804 to 1807, simply says:

“Believing bloodletting to be necessary, he procured a bleeder who took from his arm twelve or fourteen ounces of blood, but he would not permit a messenger to be despatched for his family physician until the appearance of day. About eleven in the morning Doctor Craik arrived; and perceiving the extreme danger of the case, requested that two consulting physicians should be immediately sent for. The utmost exertions of medical skill were applied in vain. The powers of life were manifestly yielding to the force of the disorder; speaking, which was painful from the beginning, became almost impracticable: respiration became more and more contracted and imperfect, until half past eleven on Saturday night; when, retaining the full possession of his intellect, he expired without a struggle.”

Necessary. Medical skill. Protocols. Best Practices. Standards of Care. Death. No one knows why: just a yielding to the forces of disorder.

UK data shows vaccinated died more during COVID waves. Whoops!

Dr. Daniel Ninio started a Grok thread to discredit my work.

So I continued the conversation and asked Grok for the data and methods showing the COVID shots have saved “millions” of lives.

It first suggested the CDC data. I pointed out that the CDC data doesn’t allow us to measure the harm/benefit. Grok agreed.

It also suggested the UK data. So I had ChatGPT analyze the UK data and it showed the vaccinated died more during COVID waves than the unvaccinated.

So Grok said it’s because of selection bias.

Whoa! A selection bias that turns a supposed >5X COVID mortality advantage to a 45% disadvantage in just a few months?!?!? Color me skeptical. I asked Grok for the methodology and Grok agreed that there was none. All hand-waving.

In a 2021 trough-to-wave comparison, age-standardised all-cause mortality rose by 17.6% in the ever-vaccinated status group versus 12.1% in the unvaccinated group, a roughly 45% larger wave-period increase among the ever-vaccinated. That directional pattern is inconsistent with a simple strongly protective all-cause interpretation.

In other words, the data isn’t fitting the narrative at all.

This is probably why the UK office of national statistics refuses to release the record level data at any finer granularity than the very crude buckets they release now.

UK Healthy Life Expectancy Plummets

People living in the United Kingdom will be spending fewer years in good health as “healthy life expectancy” plummets. The UK is going backward compared to most other “wealthy” countries.

Healthy life expectancy (HLE) in the UK has fallen by about 2 years, to just over 60 years for both men and women, making Britain one of only five wealthy nations where people live fewer years in good health, according to a new analysis by the Health Foundation charity.

This means that the amount of life a person spends in good health has decreased.

The findings, based on data from the Office for National Statistics between 2012–2014 and 2022–2024, show the measure dropped from 62.9 to 60.7 for men and from 63.7 to 60.9 for women, according to a report by The Guardian. 

Andrew Mooney, the think‑tank’s principal data analyst, has warned of “a significant economic cost, with poor health driving people out of the workforce and locking young people out of education, employment and training.”

The Health Foundation has blamed the decline in HLE on a combination of poverty, poor housing, obesity, the lingering effects of the Covid‑19 pandemic, and a surge in mental health illnesses, especially among young people.

The Absurdity of Public Health

The United States medical system, combined with the industrial food complex, kill and maim people on a colossal scale every single year.

Heart disease kills over 683,000 Americans annually. Cancer kills another 620,000. Stroke, diabetes, chronic lung disease, sepsis, obesity-related metabolic disease, opioid overdoses, and preventable medical errors collectively account for millions of deaths, disabilities, and shattered families.

And yet, if you browse the front page of the CDC website on any given week, there is a decent chance you will find public health officials issuing urgent alerts about backyard chickens, raw milk, pet turtles, or someone hugging a duck too enthusiastically.

Seriously.

At the very moment when roughly 1,870 Americans are dying every day from heart disease and another 1,700 from cancer, federal public health agencies are sounding alarms about salmonella from backyard poultry.

The contrast has become almost surreal.

One recent CDC warning involved 34 reported salmonella cases linked to backyard poultry across 13 states. Thirteen hospitalizations were reported. No deaths. Another CDC investigation from 2024 linked backyard poultry exposure to 470 salmonella cases and one death nationwide.

To be clear, salmonella infections are unpleasant. Severe cases can absolutely happen, particularly in small children or immunocompromised individuals. Basic hygiene around animals and food handling matters. But the sheer disproportion between the magnitude of America’s actual health catastrophes and the obsessive messaging priorities of modern public health is impossible to ignore.

Americans are drowning in chronic disease.

Over 40 percent of U.S. adults are now obese. Diabetes continues to explode. Cardiovascular disease remains the nation’s leading killer. Cancer rates in younger adults continue to rise. Meanwhile, researchers from Johns Hopkins estimated that medical errors themselves may contribute to more than 250,000 deaths per year, potentially making preventable medical harm the third leading cause of death in America.

Yet somehow the institutional energy of public health repeatedly gravitates toward regulating raw milk farmers, warning people not to kiss chickens, and issuing carefully branded panic messaging campaigns over statistically tiny risks.

Why?

Because modern public health increasingly behaves less like a system designed to improve population health and more like a managerial communications apparatus. The goal is no longer primarily to build a healthier citizenry. The goal is to demonstrate vigilance, maintain bureaucratic relevance, manage narratives, and continuously remind the public that experts are monitoring every conceivable risk, no matter how trivial.

And triviality matters here.

It Just Never Ends: Another American Dead At The Hands Of An Illegal Alien

Another American life senselessly erased. Michael Sharpe, a 47-year-old beloved husband and father of two young children, was killed in a head-on collision last Friday in Effingham County, Georgia.

The man behind the wheel was a 27-year-old Colombian national who entered the United States illegally in December 2023 under the Biden administration, ignored his immigration proceedings, and was under a final order of removal issued on April 17, 2026.

Deiby Jhonatan Janamejoy Jansasoy crossed the centerline on Old Augusta Road South, slamming into Sharpe’s Chevy Silverado. Sharpe was trapped in the wreckage and had to be extricated by fire crews before being rushed to the hospital, where he died from his injuries.

Jansasoy faces charges including first-degree homicide by vehicle, DUI, reckless driving, and driving without a license. He even tried to flee the hospital before authorities arrested him.

Sharpe’s wife, Crystal, was on the phone with him when the crash happened. Now she’s left to raise their two small children without their father.

The family has set up a GoFundMe to cover funeral costs and provide some stability in the devastating aftermath.

Infant Mortality Surged 37% and Birth Defect Deaths Jumped 46% After COVID-19 “Vaccine” Rollout

A major new peer-reviewed study we just published in Medical Research Archives has uncovered a shocking reversal: after two decades of steady progress, infant mortality surged 37% since 2020, congenital abnormality deaths jumped 46%, and registered live births collapsed by 24% — all coinciding with expanded vaccination campaigns in the Philippines.

The study is titled Global Implications of Vaccination and Rising Infant Mortality in the Philippines, authored by Sally A. Clark, Claire Rogers, Mila Radetich, Nicolas Hulscher (myself), Kirstin Cosgrove, Breanne Craven, M. Nathaniel Mead, and James A. Thorp.

Using official Philippine Statistics Authority data on 41.7 million births and over 546,000 infant deaths from 2000–2024, plus Department of Health vaccination records, we documented a sharp turnaround after two decades of steady progress.

Infant mortality rate fell to a historic low of 11.05 deaths per 1,000 live births in 2020. Then it rose 37% to 15.11 by 2024 — a statistically significant jump (p < 0.0001) that erased more than 20 years of gains in just five years.

An Investigation That Georgia Authorities Must Make

“Homicide, premeditated murder” is how two highly respected officials, Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F Kennedy, Jr, and Dr David Martin, publicly characterize the deaths of hundreds of thousands of Americans, including upwards of 32,000 Georgians,* who perished in hospitals while being treated for the COVID-19 virus. The public statements of Kennedy and Martin about the tragic use of the highly toxic drug Remdesivir to treat Covid patients have never been challenged or refuted and thus, can be assumed to be highly creditable.

In the words of Dr Ben Carson, “What happened during COVID must not be quietly erased from history—we must have accountability, transparency, and honest answers because forgetting what happened only guarantees it will happen again.” #BenCarson, #COVIDTruth

Given the above, this article is a CALL TO ACTION for Georgia authorities, including state legislators, the Attorney General, the Governor, and Georgia citizens in general. The alleged horrific crimes committed against so many Georgians must not “be swept under the rug” and not fully investigated. Failure to fully investigate these alleged crimes will truly be a travesty of justice.

Secretary Kennedy states that Remdesivir causes kidney failure, heart failure, and/or all-organ collapse causing eventual death—that the deaths of so many Covid patients were caused by one or more doses of Remdesivir and not the Covid virus. Dr Martin states that any hospital or public health official who knew or should have known about the drug’s deadly effects and failed to stop giving this highly toxic drug to patients has committed “reckless homicide at best or premediated murder at worst”.

Behind Closed Doors vs. Public Messaging: What Health Officials Knew—and What They Didn’t Say

The FDA knew the COVID shots would kill and maim countless Americans.

They kept injecting anyway.

One government employee tried to sound the alarm about “49 examples” of deadly side effects that conventional safety analyses weren’t detecting.

She was shut down.

Her name was Dr. Ana Szarfman.

On March 1, 2021, less than three months after the rollout of the COVID-19 injections, Dr. Ana Szarfman, an employee at CDER and safety data mining developer, warned that the FDA’s existing system could hide vaccine safety signals due to a flaw called “masking.”

She proposed a newer method developed by statistician Dr. William DuMouchel that corrected for this issue and, when applied, detected “49 examples of extreme masking” that the standard system did not.

These “49 examples of extreme masking” include not “minor” but serious adverse events:

• Bell’s palsy

• Cardiac failure

• Acute left ventricular failure

• Agonal rhythm (severe end-of-life arrhythmia)

• Pulmonary infarction

• Cerebral artery occlusion

• Aortic stenosis

• Sudden cardiac death

• Hypertensive emergency

• Basal ganglia stroke

When Dr. Szarfman proposed a new method, she was told to “hold off on creating and sending data mining reports and analyses.”

Later, they “made it clear” that she “needs to focus on her assigned work” and “should not be discussing or providing internal analyses externally.”

Target worker ruined innocent customer’s life with fake story about seeing naked girls on his iPhone, stress of being ‘labeled’ led to cardiac arrest: Family

A Target employee in Oregon “ruined” an innocent customer’s life with a fake story about seeing photos of naked girls on his iPhone, with the stress of being “labeled a demon” who liked child sexual abuse images aggravating a heart condition he had and killing him, his family said after filing a lawsuit. A jury ordered the retail giant to pay up last week.

“Defendants intentionally instigated the FBI to detain plaintiff and to search plaintiff’s home based on false information defendants provided to law enforcement,” a 2019 civil complaint filed by Jeffrey Buckmeyer’s estate and obtained by Law&Crime alleged.

Last week, a Multnomah County Circuit Court jury ordered Target to pay $150,000 for the “intentional infliction of emotional harm” and distress, which will be going to Buckmeyer’s daughter, according to his girlfriend and mother of the child, Patty Anselmo, who took over the case after Buckmeyer died in April 2019 of cardiac arrest.

“He was labeled a demon,” Anselmo told The Oregonian. “I certainly think this pressed the ‘fast forward’ button for Jeff,” she said about his heart condition.

Anselmo and her lawyer, Michael Fuller, believe the stress of the allegations hurled at Buckmeyer made his heart condition worse and played a role in his death. They accused Target and the employee at the store in Tigard who randomly targeted Buckmeyer, who had no criminal history, of “intentionally” instigating the FBI to detain the Portland father and search his home “based on false information” provided to law enforcement.

“Specifically, defendants intentionally, knowingly, and falsely reported to law enforcement that defendants saw child abuse or child pornography materials on plaintiff’s mobile phone,” the complaint said. “Plaintiff never had child abuse or child pornography materials on his mobile phone.”

According to the complaint, the Target worker — described as a cellphone technician in the electronics section — claimed Buckmeyer came to the store in July 2018 and asked for help deleting a large folder of photos from his phone of items that he sold on eBay.

The employee said he opened a file on the phone and saw photos of naked underage girls, some of whom were tied up. They claimed Buckmeyer was visible in some of the photos, and that he had an erection. He notified Target management who then called law enforcement.

The FBI launched an investigation after receiving the report from Target and “seized various electronics” from Buckmeyer, which were probed and examined over the course of several months.

“[Buckmeyer’s] neighbors were made aware of the search warrant and plaintiff was limited in his ability to spend time with his own child while the FBI completed its investigation,” the complaint alleged. “Ultimately the FBI concluded that plaintiff did not have any child abuse or child pornography materials and returned plaintiff’s electronics.”

Buckmeyer’s case was dropped and he was never arrested or charged in relation to the accusation, according to court records. An independent forensics expert reviewed his mobile phone and determined that he did not have any child abuse or child pornography materials on it, with the expert and two others testifying during a five-day trial earlier this month.
