Vance launches into Trump's 'war on fraud' by suspending Medicaid payments to Minnesota

[Dulcinea]

(NBC News) WASHINGTON — Vice President JD Vance got a new assignment Tuesday night: fighting a “war on fraud” that President Donald Trump declared in his State of the Union address.

It’s the latest addition to a portfolio that has included saving TikTok from extinction in the U.S. and selling Trump’s “One Big Beautiful Bill” — and it comes with Trump’s high expectations.

“He’ll get it done,” Trump pledged in his speech. “And if we’re able to find enough of that fraud, we will actually have a balanced budget overnight.”

Vance, joined by Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services Administrator Mehmet Oz, announced the opening salvo in the effort Wednesday: a pause on federal Medicaid reimbursements to Minnesota. The state is subject to an ongoing fraud probe involving day care centers and allegations of misuse of funds that has become a rallying cause for Republicans.

1. I thought this was already disproven in court, no?

Ol' JD is looking to get hog tied on this one, IMO. The dumber the con the bigger the lie. Someone should tell him that it's ONLY the president who carries immunity.
Civil suits have their own rules, including discovery.

Since when does the VP have authority to abridge laws passed by congress?
