Dr. Oz claims NY Medicaid program is being ripped off by Chinese crime syndicate

Federal Medicaid czar Dr. Mehmet Oz said New York’s overblown $110 billion spending on medical bills is sickening — as he claimed Chinese crime syndicates are ripping off the Empire State.

The TV doctor-turned-Trump administration official, blasted New York’s Medicaid program as rife with fraud in an interview Sunday as he outlined an alleged scheme that included millions of dollars in fraudulent medical bills.

“Social safety net programs are being defrauded. They’re being hurt oftentimes by foreign governments or foreign-run criminal syndicate organizations,” Oz, administrator of the US Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, said Sunday on 77 WABC ‘s the “Cats Roundtable” program.

Oz recently toured Flushing, Queens where a cluster of 64 social adult care centers operate — mostly serving ethnic Chinese and Korean senior citizens. Officials claim the center and pharmacies have generated massive amounts of questionable bills to Medicaid, a public insurance program intended to help the needy.

The social centers arguably shouldn’t be propped up by taxpayers, Oz said. The federal government covers more than half of Medicaid’s costs, with the state and local governments covering the rest.

BOMBSHELL FILES: CCP Used TikTok Data in 2020 Election Scheme as US Intelligence Officials Buried the Report

Newly released intelligence documents are raising explosive questions about how much the Chinese Communist Party attempted to interfere in the 2020 presidential election—and whether members of the American intelligence community prevented the allegations from being fully investigated.

The latest episode of The Patriot Perspective examines files describing an alleged Chinese operation intended to damage President Donald Trump politically and prevent his reelection.

One CIA report outlined China’s broader objective as leveraging domestic and foreign groups opposed to Trump to reduce his support, pressure him to resign, or stop him from winning another term. 

Although the intelligence did not conclusively establish that China changed the election’s outcome, the documents depict a foreign adversary determined to exploit America’s political divisions.

The most alarming material concerns the collection of Americans’ personal information.

Chinese State Media Publishes AI Video Showing Filipino People as Monkeys

The government of the Philippines on Thursday lodged a formal diplomatic protest with China over an AI-generated video published by Chinese state media depicting Filipinos as monkeys.

The Philippine government condemned the Chinese-made video as racist, unacceptable, and dehumanizing over its portrayal of Philippine nationals, demanding its immediate takedown.

Last week, the Chinese state propaganda newspaper China Daily published an AI-generated video depicting a monkey wearing Filipino national dress. In the video, the monkey is guided by an “American” and “Japanese” hand to sing an English karaoke song related to South China Sea waters that the Chinese communist regime falsely claims belongs to China.

After being called “stupid,” the monkey grabs a sheet of paper that reads “South China Sea arbitration award” before being thrown into the sea and blasted by a water cannon. A whale then derides the sheet of paper as “litter.”

At press time, the video is still visible on China Daily‘s Facebook page.

Unacceptable and Dangerous: Georgetown’s China Initiative Gives CCP-Linked Groups Access to Future US Policymakers

In the latest anti-American move made by American academic institutions, Campus Reform is reporting “Georgetown University has spent the last decade building one of the nation’s most prominent China-focused academic pipelines while receiving tens of millions of dollars in Chinese Communist Party (CCP)-linked funding and nearly $1.5 billion in foreign gifts and contracts since 1992.”

This is outrageous and dangerous in light of President Trump’s address Thursday night to the nation and the revelations of what the CCP engaged in.

President Trump has argued that China interfered in our elections.

The CCP or Chinese Communist Party has sought to undermine America from within at every turn.

Georgetown has raked in billions from foreign governments. Georgetown increased tuition prices for hard-working American families. This fall, undergraduate tuition will cost American students $74,520 before room, board, and fees are factored in, more than doubling since 2006.”

This is outrageous and unacceptable.

“The university has also helped create opportunities for Chinese state-linked institutions and CCP-tied organizations to gain access to the next generation of U.S. policymakers in Washington, D.C.”

If this seems like a recipe for disaster its because it is.

“The university’s Initiative for U.S.-China Dialogue on Global Issues was launched in 2016 with a $10 million “gift” from the Hong Kong-based Spring Breeze Foundation. A 2020 Department of Education Section 117 report stated that Spring Breeze was financed by CP Group and noted the company’s extensive commercial relationships with the CCP. ”

According to this student writing at Campus Reform, this is not a typical exchange program but rather a subversive CCP initiative.

“By 2019, the initiative had launched five research groups, supported 43 student fellows, organized 16 U.S.-China workshops, produced 23 podcasts, funded graduate study tours in China, and hosted 35 public events. ”

“Georgetown has charged families premium prices for access to elite civic and policy leadership opportunities while simultaneously building channels for CCP-linked institutions to reach the students most likely to enter American government, diplomacy, law, and national security work.”

This is ominous; there should be exactly 0 cooperative programs that give the CCP any access or benefit from our universities, as they clearly cannot be trusted.

Declassified Intelligence Records: China ‘Compromised’ at Least 18 State Voter Rolls

On Thursday evening, President Donald Trump’s White House published declassified documents related to election integrity and China’s encroachment into American elections.

One of those documents, a disclosure from the United States intelligence community via the White House Task Force on Government Transparency, suggests that at least 18 states have had their voter rolls “compromised” by China.

The document posted by the White House only names 15 of the 18 states, as well as the District of Columbia. Those named in the document are:

  • Alaska
  • Arkansas
  • Colorado
  • Connecticut
  • District of Columbia
  • Florida
  • Georgia
  • Iowa
  • Kansas
  • Maryland
  • Michigan
  • New York
  • North Carolina
  • Ohio
  • Oklahoma
  • Rhode Island

In addition, the document states that the U.S. intelligence community has found that more than 200 million voter records have been compromised by China.

CSIS warned feds about scientist’s China connection for 21 years

CSIS briefed Natural Resources Canada about Dennis Lu not once, not twice, but three times between 2000 and 2021. For two decades, Canada’s spy agency flagged concerns about a senior scientist collaborating with Chinese counterparts on government energy research. And yet, nothing happened.

Then, in June 2023, Lu traveled to China just before his retirement. While there, he allegedly forwarded nearly 2,000 emails from his government account to his personal account.

When he returned to Canada and found his access had been blocked, a manager ordered it reinstated to process his retirement. Weeks later, Lu allegedly copied more than 2,600 documents from a departmental shared server. 

He has since been charged with breach of trust and unauthorized use of federal computers.

Sheila Gunn Reid and Tamara Lich broke down the case on Wednesday’s Buffalo Roundtable, drawing on reporting by Sam Cooper of The Bureau.

An Ontario Superior Court judge has now ordered CSIS and the Privy Council Office to disclose sensitive records in the prosecution — a significant departure, Sheila noted, from the Liberals’ track record of stonewalling on China-related security files.

“For the first time, a judge is ordering the records turned over,” Sheila said. “Which is completely in contrast to what happened with the Winnipeg lab.”

The Winnipeg connection loomed large over the conversation.

Sheila recalled that Chinese scientists at the National Microbiology Laboratory in Winnipeg had transferred virus samples to the Wuhan Institute of Virology, a military-linked biolab the U.S. government has identified as the likely source of COVID-19. 

When Parliament ordered those documents disclosed, the Trudeau government refused. Trudeau prorogued Parliament over it. “The Conservatives tried to make a complaint to the RCMP,” Sheila said, “who were not all that interested.”

Both hosts drew what Sheila called a conspiracy theory “rooted in fact” — that the Canadian government’s persistent deference to Beijing, in spite of repeated foreign interference scandals, may stem from the Chinese government knowing exactly what came out of that Winnipeg lab, and the Liberals knowing they know.

“Wouldn’t it be a bad look,” Sheila said, “to have allowed what might have been a precursor to COVID-19 to come out of a lab in Winnipeg, end up back in Wuhan, and then be unleashed upon the world?”

Tamara noted the prosecution also lands squarely in the middle of Mark Carney’s sweeping re-engagement with China, in which both nations have pledged that Canada will become a major exporter of energy to the Chinese market.

“Canada has a China problem,” she said. “A foreign interference problem with the Chinese.”

Former Federal Reserve Adviser Sentenced to 38 Months in Prison After Lying About Sharing Restricted Information With Suspected Chinese Intelligence Operatives

Former Federal Reserve senior adviser John Harold Rogers, 64, was sentenced today to 38 months in federal prison.

According to the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of Columbia, Rogers was sentenced in connection with making false statements to federal investigators about sharing restricted Federal Reserve information with Chinese intelligence operatives.

As The Gateway Pundit previously reported in detail when Rogers was arrested and indicted in late January 2025, the longtime Fed economist exploited his position of trust for years.

Rogers worked as a Senior Adviser in the Federal Reserve Board of Governors’ Division of International Finance from 2010 until his retirement in 2021.

He had access to highly sensitive, non-public information, including proprietary economic data sets, deliberations on tariffs targeting China, briefing books for Fed governors, and critical insights into upcoming Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) decisions and interest rate moves.

Prosecutors alleged that beginning as early as 2018, Rogers passed this information to co-conspirators tied to the People’s Republic of China’s intelligence and security apparatus.

These individuals posed as graduate students at a PRC university. They allegedly lured Rogers with gifts, an all-expenses-paid beach vacation, and a lucrative part-time “professor” position at Fudan University in Shanghai, for which he was paid approximately $450,000 in 2023 alone.

REPORT: Over 10,000 Christians Arrested in China as Xi Jinping’s Communist Regime Escalates Religious Crackdown

Christians across Communist China are being arrested, detained and effectively “disappeared” for worshipping outside state-controlled churches, according to a major investigation by The Telegraph.

The report details accounts from underground Christians who say police have raided homes in the middle of the night, separated families and imprisoned pastors as the regime intesifies its campaign against independent religious groups.

One Christian identified only as “TJ” recalled police smashing into his home before dragging away his wife.

“They grabbed my clothes and grabbed my hands so I couldn’t move. I could hear my daughter crying so much in the room next door but I couldn’t go to her, I couldn’t hug my wife.”

His wife remains in custody, according to The Telegraph.

China officially permits Christianity only through churches controlled by the Communist Party, where congregations are expected to display portraits of Xi Jinping and demonstrate loyalty to the regime.

Mitch McConnell’s Wife, Elaine Chao, Issues Statement Addressing His Health Upon Her Return from China

Former Transportation Secretary Elaine Chao, wife of Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, has issued a statement after returning to the United States from a trip to China, addressing questions about why she did not immediately return when her husband was hospitalized on June 14.

The statement emphasized that Chao was already abroad on a previously scheduled trip supporting her family’s philanthropic work when McConnell was admitted to the hospital, and that his condition at the time did not require her to cut the trip short.

“The secretary was on a long-planned trip in China to support her family’s philanthropic endeavors,” the statement, obtained by WLKY, began.

“During the trip, she met with a number of people, including the US ambassador. The Senator’s health did not warrant an immediate return to the US,” the statement continued.

The statement also noted that Senator McConnell appreciates the outpouring of support he is receiving while he continues his recovery in the hospital.

It did not provide any new information about his condition.

Chao returned to the United States earlier this week after spending roughly three weeks in China. She had begun her trip on June 12, just two days before her husband’s hospitalization.
