re: Bessent blocks $175 MILLION in fraudulent payments for deceased recipients

You think this 175 million was all of the fraud?
In all of the govt spending? Of course not
But unless I’m missing something, the wording of the video said they analyzed 3.7T of payments and found 175 million in fraud

So only .0047% of those payments were fraud?
That actually sounds like a system run quite well

Good thing we have a president who's never been known to embellish or overstate, and there's a clear track record of announcements = action by the govt agencies responsible.

They also vote 100% electronically, and voters have to submit their fingerprints for biometric identification, which ties their votes to their identity

Let the WR catch the ball.
Thats the goal of the NFL, give the O every advantage because points = ratings, and it’s a TV product more than a sports competition these days

The oil already at sea is running down. The floating stockpile outside the blockade fell from roughly 90 million barrels in mid-July to about 29 million. Meanwhile, usable onshore storage was estimated at around 39 million barrels, with roughly 1.8 million barrels a day of exports displaced. If that estimate holds, Iran could face forced production cuts within weeks. Shutting mature oil fields risks lasting damage. Restarting them is not as simple as turning a tap.
Feels like we hear this same scenario about every 6 weeks or so. I guess if it keeps getting said, it will eventually come true at some point

Isn’t there some video out there showing someone cutting the liner? Is it a different person?
There is video of people leaning over and slicing the waterproofing foam on the side of the pool, which makes sense as that's something they could reach and is soft enough to be cut with a simple knife
The blue "rhino" liner that peeled up from the bottom was due to a shitty job
Whether through ignorance, refusal to admit the contractor did a bad job, ego, or combination of all 3, Trump kept completely mixing up the 2 events, and doubling down and insisting there was vandalism on tape of the "liner" being cut the length of a football field.
This whole thing could have been cleaned up with a 10 minute PC using the correct language
re: DHS Finds 300,000 Cases of Voter Fraud
Posted by OldManRiver on 9/30/26 at 2:18 pm to BoarEd
DHS also identified 15,903 non citizens on voter rolls in Nevada. Turns out the actual number out of that 15k was 0
quote:
In July, Donald Trump gave a speech saying DHS had found a combined 278,000 non-citizens on the rolls in Nevada, California, Pennsylvania and New Jersey. Follow-up letters to each of those states weakened the claim, saying there only could be as many as 278,000 non-citizens on the rolls, including up to 15,903 in Nevada.
In August, DHS officials told staffers in the Nevada secretary of state’s office that they had reviewed the numbers and confirmed only 185 were non-citizens.
quote:
But on Wednesday, Nevada election officials said they had reviewed the 185 records DHS sent them and confirmed they were US citizens. “As for the 185 individuals, our records indicate that they were citizens. You have provided nothing of substance to suggest otherwise,” Greg Ott, a deputy attorney general, wrote to DHS this week in an email obtained by the Guardian through a public records request.
quote:
In a statement on Friday, a DHS spokesperson did not address whether the department still believed the 185 were non-citizens. The spokesperson said the agency “is providing a service to the citizens of Nevada”.
