The fraud!? The investigation took place under Biden's DOJ and was handed off to Trump. Local authorities had been investigating it before Biden. It is not new at all.

The biggest fraud was perpetrated by a white women who used Somalis who come from a very corrupt area already. She took advantage of them because they didn't really know better.

Trump and company are openly committing tens of billions of dollars of fraud as we speak. It is not about the fraud unless it is merely a distraction. This administration played hard it would uncover fraud, but the truth is it is committing fraud.

We should be able to talk about the fraud without bringing race or culture into it, but you shouldn't get a pass for that reason either.

Agreed, but we will have to talk about it as long as conservatives use race and origin as a convenient scapegoat for crime.
