FTA:
"The civil rights complaint argues that good-for-nothing quack Mehmet Oz "spewed baseless and racially charged allegations" that put hospices at risk of not receiving patients. Governor Newsom's office said Oz's absurd claims "already caused real-world harm" on Armenian businesses.
The mountebank spuriously claimed in a video that there is "roughly $3.5 billion of fraud taking place here in LA in hospice and home care." The good-for-nothing junta apparatchik pointed to the lettering outside a bakery and said, "It's run, quite a bit of it, by the Russian Armenian mafia. You notice the lettering and language behind me is of that dialect."
Governor Gavin Newsom's (D-CA) press office mocked the grifter on X, twice calling him a "fraud." One post shared a montage of videos of Dr Oz making various health-related claims, including congressional testimony and claims made when he was a television tumor.
A second post shared an AI-generated image of Oz resembling fictional secret agent Austin Powers with the caption, "Sold fake miracle pills' to dying grandmas." Newsom's image appears next to Oz's with the caption, "BANNED ALL NEW HOSPICES IN 2021 TO STOP FRAUD."

Alleged Medicaid fraud was one the reasons cited by the nefarious Trump junta to invade Minnesota with his horde of homicidal ICE maniacs.

I do hope the 2028 elections are held as scheduled, and Newsom runs in the primaries,, along with many other experienced and courageous Democrats, so the country can hear what those who cherish democracy and the rule of law sound like. In contrast to the Miller/Trump gang, or the Miller/Vance gang....

I worked with an author who grew up with his wife. They were still besties, and the author was boasting about it. I was thinking in the back of my mind, You poor sap.

Sure! Everything is "Lawfare" now! That is to say.. Everything Democrats do to hold this administration is Lawfare!
You think that a lawsuit against the Trump administration for violating the Civil Rights of Californians is "Lawfare"?
What do you call arresting a journalist for simply covering a protest ?

Everything Democrats do to hold this administration accountable is now officially "Lawfare"!
