The CEO of a homelessness nonprofit, Abundant Blessings, is facing federal and state fraud charges after allegedly living a luxury lifestyle on $23 million in public funds meant to keep people off the streets. A $7 million home. A $125,000 Range Rover. Designer clothes, Greek vacation property, Hawaii trips, and stays at the Four Seasons—while homeless residents were reportedly fed canned beans and microwavable ramen. Prosecutors say invoices were falsified to claim fresh meals and proper housing that never existed. The charity was contracted by the Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority with virtually no oversight, raising serious questions about insider connections, accountability, and how many similar contracts are quietly bleeding taxpayers dry. This isn't charity—it's a system-wide grift.

An audit finds more than $200 million meant to get the mentally ill off the streets and into medical and psychiatric care has only helped 22 people. 8 senate republicans seem poised to reject the SAVE Act to mandate photo ID to vote in US elections. Why would that be? Trump bigfoots Gavin Newsom and Karen Bass with an executive order to expedite the rebuilding of Pacifici Palisades. Trump's economy is booming which means democrats will surely force another government shutdown.

Andy Frasco and Nick ditch the guest format and go fully unfiltered on this episode of Andy Frasco's World Saving Podcast, tackling one of the most honest conversations in the jam-band world, including who needs to quit and why. The episode spirals into a ruthless (and mostly bleeped) breakdown of bands that should probably hang it up, bands that should come back, and why the scene feels oversaturated right now. From there, the target shifts to managers, why so many are five years behind, terrified of other managers, and still throwing money at the same tired marketing playbook. They also dig into the state of the music industry, from festival economics and oversaturation to why so many bands refuse to quit and why managers keep recycling the same outdated ideas. It's an inside look at how scenes get clogged, why presales matter, and what actually hurts live music in 2026. Producer Jack drops in to relive his destination wedding in Barbados, which was launched by a brutally honest rant about weddings, bridal showers, and the social pressure to spend thousands to prove you're "supportive." From gift fatigue to travel weddings and the misery of being too high up in the wedding party, Andy and Nick argue that the only winning move is being the seventh-best friend.

As if on cue, several mainstream media outlets decided to write articles about "all the right-wingers" who are furious about He-Man's pronouns in the Masters of the Universe trailer. At the EXACT SAME TIME. But a lot of people got it was (probably) just a joke, and many more didn't care because MOTU is pretty dead with the general public. So what's going on here? Do they WANT to stir up unnecessary 'Culture War' drama for clicks and ad revenue? Isn't that... grifting?Watch the podcast episodes on YouTube and all major podcast hosts including Spotify.CLOWNFISH TV is an independent, opinionated news and commentary podcast that covers Entertainment and Tech from a consumer's point of view.

Even as the ICE thugs roil the nation, Republicans never rest on their efforts to undermine Social Security and Medicare despite the massive popularity of those programs.

In this episode of Make Parlays Great Again, Alex and Cole break down how sports betting has turned fandom into financial self-harm and why the house always wins by design. They spiral through brutal playoff losses, the Ben Johnson–NFL coaching churn, and the slow collapse of sports into a political, algorithm-driven spectacle where outrage is monetized and nothing is just a game anymore — especially as gambling creeps into politics itself, turning elections and civic life into another market to exploit, and making a bad system even worse.

On this episode of ABL Live, we're talking about Ben Shapiro's appearance on California Governor Gavin Newsom's podcast, a Secret Service agent assigned to JD Vance exposed by an undercover journalist behaving as a honeypot, the widespread Government fraud new being revealed in the wake of the Minnesota "Learing Center" controversy, and much more!

In the latest episode of our podcast, we tackle a pressing issue in today's digital landscape: grifting. As social media continues to evolve, the phenomenon of grifting has become increasingly prevalent, particularly over the last five to six years. But what exactly is grifting? In essence, it refers to individuals who create content specifically designed to appeal to a targeted audience, often without any genuine belief in the content they are producing. This practice is driven by algorithms that reward creators for catering to specific niches, regardless of the authenticity of their message. Tune in to the episode for a thought-provoking exploration of grifting, AI technology, and the power of community in the digital landscape.

The good news is that Trump is finally admitting data centers are sucking out energy. Now it's time he realizes China is beating us with a much smarter approach that doesn't require such investment. Next, we're joined by Rebecca Bextel, a local conservative activist in Teton County, Wyoming, who has exposed the low-income housing program as a bigger scam and grift than the Somali food and day-care scandal. She explains how local housing authorities use unlimited federal funds to pay off wealthy private equity firms to build unnecessary Section 8 housing in beautiful parts of the country. They are often exempt from property tax and zoning laws, violate eligibility criteria, and line their pockets while dumping out-of-state criminals and drugs into “Ghettostone” slums in the middle of the heartland. This is happening all across the country.   Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

From welfare scandals in Minnesota and Mississippi to the explosion of “healthcare and social assistance” jobs, Chris explains how billions in taxpayer dollars disappear while Americans who actually need help are left behind.He calls out the political theater on cable news, the convenient distractions, and the false idea that only one side is corrupt. Whether it's welfare programs or defense contracts, the grift is the same—and Washington has no incentive to stop it. The message is simple: stop fighting each other, follow the money, and don't hold your breath waiting for accountability.

Morning Rush Hour Podcast — Chaos, Conspiracies, and Criminal Charges The conservative media civil war continues as Candace Owens and Alex Jones escalate their public crusade, with fellow right-wing commentators reportedly coordinating behind the scenes to confront what many are calling reckless and chaotic commentary. We break down who's pushing back, who's doubling down, and what this infighting says about the current state of conservative media. Plus, a major update in the case surrounding singer David, who has now been formally charged with murder in the death of Celeste Rivas. What prosecutors are alleging, what evidence is being discussed, and where the case goes next. Also this morning: Donald Trump stuns the press by admitting the U.S. has bombed Venezuela, raising serious questions about foreign policy transparency and escalation. And we continue following troubling developments involving a former Nickelodeon star, as new details emerge about their ongoing struggle with drug addiction and the broader conversation around child stardom and accountability. All that and more on your Morning Rush.

Jon Herold kicks off the week with a wide-ranging Daily Herold that blends market watch, political theater, and cultural absurdity into a familiar Badlands-style rundown. After some behind-the-scenes tech hiccups, Jon dives into movements in silver and gold, questioning mainstream narratives around profit-taking and geopolitics while keeping an eye on broader economic instability. From there, the conversation pivots into viral cultural moments, media propaganda fatigue, and the growing public awareness of systemic fraud, including NGO abuse, entitlement programs, and taxpayer-funded corruption. The episode explores the implications of government waste, ballooning national debt, and the unsustainable structure of modern governance, drawing parallels between failing businesses and a failing state. Jon also breaks down ongoing Ukraine developments, Trump's communications with global leaders, and the repetitive cycle of political “breakthrough” headlines that never quite materialize. As always, the show blends sharp commentary, humor, audience interaction, and skepticism toward institutional narratives, closing with reflections on accountability, civic disengagement, and the slow drip of normalization in an increasingly unserious system.

  On this weeks episode, the guys are getting into the latest with the ongoing Somali fraud situation. They talk about the recent rise in the price of silver, and how much higher it can go; and they give a recap of 2025 and the year that has been. Happy New Year everyone!

In this episode, Chris asks the uncomfortable but necessary question, pointing to staggering examples like billions lost to Medicaid and Medicare fraud, runaway Pentagon spending, and a political system that refuses to follow the money. From Washington's culture of grift and lobbyist-driven spending to foreign aid and defense dollars flushed down the drain, this is a blunt look at why trust in government has collapsed. If taxes are meant to serve the public good, where exactly is the accountability—and why are taxpayers still being asked to foot the bill?

In this episode, Nik Suresh returns to the show to discuss his first year running a bootstrapped services company. And no, he probably will not throat punch or pile drive you.Nik explains why he moved away from hourly billing to fixed pricing, why writing code is often the least profitable part of a project, and how to spot "status games" in the tech industry. We also dive into the current state of AI, why bad leadership is the real problem behind failed tech initiatives, and trade stories about MMA and boxing.We debunk the myth that starting a business has to be miserable, explore the performative nature of "hustle culture" in Silicon Valley, and break down why engineers often struggle with consulting sales.

When Samantha Fulnecky filed a religious discrimination complaint against her university after failing an essay assignment in which she only referenced the Bible, she was on a path to victory. Sure, the essay was a grammatical disaster and completely incoherent — not to mention offensive towards both her classmates and professors. Sure, the failing grade was deserved. But in the age of right-wing culture war domination, Samantha was poised to become a star. Her January 6th-loving mother, Turning Point USA (and their recent influx of cash), and the Oklahoma House of Representatives all threw their full weight behind her. Despite all this, Samantha Fulnecky became the last great joke of 2025. Today, Kat Tenbarge, Parker Molloy and I examine why she failed the grift (and the essay). Listen to bonus episodes on Patreon!

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for December 10, 2025 is: grift • GRIFT • verb To grift is to use dishonest tricks to illegally take money or property. // The email scammer shamelessly grifted thousands of dollars from unwitting victims. See the entry > Examples: "When the families demanded he return the jewellery he had grifted from them he arranged meetings and then did not show." — Peter Spriggs, The Echo (South Essex, England), 31 Oct. 2025 Did you know? Someone who grifts is a thief, but of a particular sort: they illegally obtain money or property by means of cleverness or deceit, and do not usually resort to physical force or violence. A grifter might be a pickpocket, a crooked gambler, a scammer, or a con artist. The most plausible etymology we have for the murky term is that grift is an early 20th century alteration of graft, a slightly older word which refers to the acquisition of money or property in dishonest or questionable ways. Both grift and graft have noun and verb forms.

Applications for Minnesota's "special service provider" licenses have skyrocketed by more than 280% as fraudsters rip off Medicaid for billions, all under Governor Tim Walz's nose. Remember him awarding a Somalian woman Minnesota's Refugee of the Year award? That woman is part of the Feeding Our Future fraud and stole millions of dollars she spent on real estate and a private jet. A democrat congressman admits the boats the military is blowing up are carrying narcotics and a look at Ilhan Omar's strange and very lucrative stock portfolio.

From $400 million planes to $300 million ballrooms, from cryptocurrency to just plain… currency, President Donald Trump and his family have profited massively from his return to the White House. According to the Center for American Progress, the Trump family has received nearly $2 billion in cash and gifts since President Trump won the 2024 presidential election. This week, during Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman's visit to the White House, the president downplayed his family's dealings in Saudi Arabia, but the reality is that those business ties have grown significantly during his second term. For more on just how much money Trump and his family are making from his return to the Oval Office, we spoke to Andrea Bernstein, podcast host and author of "American Oligarchs: The Kushners, the Trumps, and the Marriage of Money and Power."And in headlines, President Trump threatens Congressional Democrats with violent rhetoric, Customs and Border Patrol prepares more immigration crackdowns in Louisiana and Mississippi, and New York City Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani is set to meet with President Trump at the White House.Show Notes:Check out Andrea's book – wwnorton.com/books/american-oligarchsCall Congress – 202-224-3121Subscribe to the What A Day Newsletter – https://tinyurl.com/3kk4nyz8What A Day – YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@whatadaypodcastFollow us on Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/crookedmedia/For a transcript of this episode, please visit crooked.com/whataday Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

In 1971, Go Ask Alice shocked parents across America - marketed as the real diary of a teenage girl swallowed alive by drugs, addiction, and death. Terrified moms and dads bought the book by the millions, used it to police their kids, and fueled a cultural panic that helped justify the War on Drugs. But there was just one problem: the entire book was a lie presented as truth...Merch and more: www.badmagicproductions.com Timesuck Discord! https://discord.gg/tqzH89vWant to join the Cult of the Curious PrivateFacebook Group?
