NEVER SHOWING UP FOR WORK FOR YEARS, WHAT A GREAT GOVERNMENT FAKE JOB AND NO OVERSIGHT AT ALL!

Your taxes funded lavish vacations, luxury cars, and fake jobs

The deep state isn’t a conspiracy theory — it’s a reality. And the corrupt, free-spending Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service is just one example of how Washington insiders enrich themselves.

A little-known agency in Washington perfectly encapsulates everything wrong with our bloated, corrupt government: the Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service. It should be the poster child of everything that Elon Musk is exposing.

The agency was established in 1947 under the Labor Management Relations Act to serve as an independent agency mediating disputes between unions and businesses — a noble mission, perhaps. But like so many government institutions, it has rotted into something far removed from its original purpose.

The FMCS goes beyond mismanagement into blatant corruption and theft.

What was once a mechanism for labor stability has morphed into an unchecked slush fund — an exclusive playground for bureaucrats living high on taxpayer dollars.

The FMCS is a textbook case of government waste, an agency that no one was watching, where employees didn’t even bother showing up for work — some hadn’t for years. And yet they still collected paychecks and spent government money — our money — on their personal luxuries.

Luxury cars and cell phone bills

The Department of Government Efficiency discovered how FMCS employees used government credit cards — intended for official business — to lease luxury cars, cover personal cell phone bills, and even subscribe to USA Today. The agency’s information technology director, James Donnan, apparently billed taxpayers his wife’s cell phone bill, cable TV subscriptions in multiple homes, and personal subscriptions.

FMCS officials commissioned portraits of themselves and hung them in their offices, and you footed the bill. They took exotic vacations and hired their friends and relatives to keep the gravy train rolling.

The FMCS goes beyond mismanagement into blatant corruption and theft — and it went on for decades, unnoticed and unchallenged.

President Donald Trump signed an executive order to abolish the FMCS — a necessary and long-overdue move. But the FMCS is just one of many agencies within the federal government burning through billions of taxpayer dollars. How many more slush funds exist in the shadows, funneling money into the pockets of bureaucrats who produce nothing? How many government-funded NGOs operate in direct opposition to American interests?

Perhaps the most disturbing question is why Americans tolerate such corruption. Why do so many Americans tolerate this? Why is the left — supposedly the party of the people — defending the very institutions that rob working-class Americans blind?

Corruption beyond bureaucracy

The recent rallies led by Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.), Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.), and their socialist acolytes claim to be a grassroots uprising against corruption and greed. But GPS data from these rallies tells a different story. The majority of attendees aren’t ordinary citizens fed up with the status quo. They’re professional activists — serial agitators who bounce from protest to protest.

Roughly 84% of devices tracked at these rallies were present at multiple Kamala Harris events. A staggering 31% appeared at over 20 separate demonstrations, tied to Antifa, Black Lives Matter, and pro-Palestinian causes.

Many of these organizations receive federal grant money — our tax dollars — and they’re using those funds to protest the very policies that threaten to cut off their financial lifeline.

This isn’t democracy in action. This is political theater — astroturfing perfected. And the American taxpayer is funding it.

Rooting out corruption

Trump was a battering ram against this corrupt system. Elon Musk is a surgeon, meticulously exposing the infection that has festered for decades — and that’s why the leftists hate him even more than they hate Trump. Musk threatens to dismantle the financial web that sustains their entire operation.

When we allow the government to grow unchecked and our leaders to prioritize their own wealth and power over the good of the nation, figures like Trump and Musk are necessary. Rome didn’t fall because of an external invasion but rather due to internal decay that looked an awful lot like what we see today.

We must demand better. We must refuse to tolerate this corruption any longer. The FMCS may be gone, but the fight to root out this deep-seated corruption is far from over.

$250 MILLION COVID FRAUD IN MINNESOTA…WHERE ELSE DID YOU EXPECT IT TO BE?

From Feeding the Kids to Fleecing the Government: Inside the Country’s Largest COVID Fraud

Salim Said (L.) and Aimee Brock (R.) stand for mugshots.

What happens when you cross a Third-World tribal culture with an urban Democratic establishment? You can probably guess the outcome, but in Minnesota we don’t have to guess. We have seen it on display in the sprawling Feeding Our Future case that represents the largest COVID fraud discovered so far in the United States.

A cast of almost entirely Somali immigrants is charged with siphoning some $250 million from the federal child nutrition program administered by the Minnesota Department of Education into their own pockets between March 2020 and January 2022, when federal agents assembled from around the United States to raid the many scenes of the crime around the Twin Cities. Since then 70 defendants have been charged, 37 have pleaded guilty, and 7 have been convicted in the two trials conducted in the case so far. The others have yet to be tried.

Minnesota—mostly the Twin Cities area—is home to some 100,000 Somali immigrants, the largest Somali population in North America. Starting in the 1990s, the State Department directed thousands of refugees from Somalia’s civil war to Minnesota. As Kelly Riddell reported in a 2015 Washington Times story, Minnesota affords these refugees “some of America’s most generous welfare and charity programs.” Riddell quoted Professor Ahamed Samatar of St. Paul’s Macalester College: “Minnesota is exceptional in so many ways but it’s the closest thing in the United States to a true social democratic state.” After a dip in 2008, the inflow of Somalis has continued unabated and augmented by Somalis from other states. If it takes a village, Minnesota has what it takes.

Minnesota’s Somali community has been a fertile source of recruits for ISIS and al-Shabab. The FBI’s Minneapolis field office has accordingly devoted substantial resources to terrorism-related issues.

The Feeding Our Future case represents old-fashioned corruption of two federal nutrition programs. Feeding Our Future was a small nonprofit that served as a “sponsor” of “sites” such as day cares that participated in the programs. In the COVID era, from April 2020 until January 2022, Feeding Our Future along with its sites and site vendors found it remarkably easy to bilk the programs out of millions of dollars a month by filing false claims for reimbursement supported by false meal counts, fake rosters, and bogus invoices.

The programs were administered by the Minnesota Department of Education (MDE) and funded by the United States Department of Agriculture. With regulatory “waivers” adopted by the department on account of COVID, the MDE proved a remarkably easy mark. It didn’t take much more than absurd claims of racism to scare the agency off its suspicions while “sites” proliferated and funds kept rolling out the door. In 2021 alone, Feeding Our Future siphoned nearly $200 million to fraudulent sites and vendors.

A frustrated MDE official, however, tipped the FBI to her suspicions in April 2021. FBI forensic accountant Pauline Roase followed up in the ensuing months by collecting relevant bank records. FBI special agents Jared Kary and Travis Wilmer investigated in the field. In the last six weeks of the investigation they posted surveillance cameras outside 12 sites. The videos depicted a sleepy time at the sites that were supposedly feeding thousands of kids a day.

On January 20, 2022, the investigation “went overt” when federal authorities raided sites around the Twin Cities in the largest such operation ever conducted in Minnesota. The following September then-United States Attorney Andrew Luger announced the first indictments handed up in the case.

Aimee Bock was the founder and executive director of Feeding Our Future as well as the ringleader of the fraud scheme. As the sponsor of more than 250 sites sponsored by Feeding Our Future around the state, Bock certified the accuracy of the ludicrously inflated meal claims she submitted for reimbursement on behalf of the sites she enrolled in the program with the approval of MDE. Unlike the Somali players at Feeding Our Future’s sites and vendors, however, Bock was white. She introduced a multicultural liberal element to the massive fraud she oversaw.

The fraud in this case is gross, disgusting, and despicable. In financial terms, Bock herself may have profited the least from it. Defendants expended proceeds intended as reimbursement for meals served on cash purchases of luxury automobiles, deluxe homes, and commercial properties in Minnesota, Ohio, Kentucky, Turkey, and Kenya. Bock appears to have been compensated mostly in the form of the autocratic coin and the adoration of her Somali co-conspirators. Still, the amount she received in the scheme—$1.9 million, according to FBI accountants—is nothing to sneeze at.

Bock was the star defendant in the second of the two trials conducted so far. Her trial concluded with the jury’s guilty verdict on all counts this past Wednesday. Bock was tried along with Salim Said, whose fraud netted him $5.5 million. Said’s Safari Restaurant off Lake Street in south Minneapolis reported approximately $600,000 in annual revenue in each of the three years prior to the onset of COVID. In April 2020, Safari enrolled in the federal child nutrition program under the sponsorship of Feeding Our Future. By July 2020, Said claimed to be serving meals to 5,000 children per day, seven days a week, every month. In total, Said claimed to have served over 3.9 million meals to children from the Safari Restaurant food site between April 2020 and November 2021. Said profited from claims that associates provided more than 2.2 million meals at other food sites involved in Feeding Our Future’s fraud scheme.

Bock’s fakery occasionally had an unintentionally comic component. Except for the checks it issued to sites and vendors, everything about Feeding Our Future was fake. Feeding Our Future listed three key outside board members who had no idea they had been so named. Two were bartenders and one was a small-engine mechanic for the city of Eagan, Minnesota.

Called as witnesses by the prosecution, they radiated blue-collar charisma. When Assistant United States Attorney Joe Thompson displayed a Feeding Our Future organization chart with St. Paul bartender Ben Stayberg at the top, he commented laconically: “Yeah, big shoes.” They all testified to their lack of qualifications to serve on a nonprofit board and their lack of knowledge that they were (allegedly) on the Feeding Our Future board. The board held no meetings. Bock’s board minutes were fake. She never communicated by email with any of her purported board members. She never sent them any documents to review. There is a Coen Brothers movie lurking in the facts of this case. Frances McDormand could play Aimee Bock.

Minneapolis’s Lake Street runs east-west through the city from St. Paul to St. Louis Park. Feeding Our Future sponsored 21 sites in 2021 (including Safari) on a 1.8 mile stretch of Lake Street. Together these sites claimed to be serving as many kids as populated the Minneapolis public schools.

Bock and Said were charged on 28 counts of wire fraud, federal programs bribery, money laundering, and related conspiracy counts. In the course of the six-week trial federal prosecutors introduced a massive amount of evidence in support of the charges. The jury convicted Bock and Said on all counts within five hours of commencing their deliberations. More trials are scheduled this year, but in part thanks to the result in this case there will probably be more guilty pleas as well.

Sitting through every day of the trial I wondered if there was a single Somali who elected not to participate in the fraud when he or she was presented with the opportunity. Everyone who heard about it seemed to want to get in on the action.

One Somali immigrant, however, spoke up when he saw something shady. His name is Abdihakim Osman Nur. He was my first Somali source on Ilhan Omar’s fraudulent marriage to her brother. Coincidentally, in his defense Salim Said sought to introduce a campaign video of Omar serving meals at Safari. Judge Nancy Brasel asked Said’s counsel to edit Omar from the video and it was never introduced, but it would have been perfect—one pioneering fraudster speaking up for another.

In January 2022, just before the raids that brought the fraud to an end, Abdi commented in Somali on a video in a Facebook post that a mutual friend translated for my use on Power Line. Prosecutors introduced both the video and a version of Abdi’s commentary into evidence. Abdi’s was the voice of decency in this case:

The most amazing incident that you all witnessed happened last night in Minneapolis. We all witnessed a wedding of a young Somali woman who works at the office of Feeding Our Future—a nonprofit that helps provide meals to indigent children who need supportive food programs. … [Vendors] are contracted in that program to distribute that food.

Last night what happened at that staff member’s wedding was shocking to the entire city. The contractors gifted the young woman in charge of coordinating the program gold worth 10,000 dollars each—so much gold that it was wheeled in on a gold tray. The people who gifted her that entire tray are the very contractors in charge of that delivery.

Can someone tell me how and with what funds they were able to gift an office person that expensive gift individually and collectively almost $100,000? These same people, some of whom are under investigation for forging names of young children they are supposed to serve!

We cannot close our eyes to such corruption which will put our entire community’s name in the news as fraudsters and criminals when we only have a few bad apples. These women who are gifting this have been submitting names of thousands of children who are in no data base anywhere and are still being audited for those invoices.

I’m saddened that this same bride was once asked why she had signed people as vendors who were clearly unqualified and unable to follow the program’s rules. These are the same characters who did a song and dance event for the lady contracted to manage this program whose name is Amy [i.e., Aimee Bock]. I would like the entire community to be aware that we are following these events very closely as they unfold.

Sitting through the trial I also wondered where state authorities were while the funds continued to roll out the door from MDE to Bock and her co-conspirators through 2021. Governor Tim Walz has bragged with respect to the colossal fraud in this case that “we caught it very early.” He declined to respond to any of the related questions I submitted to him in writing—twice, the second time in response to an email asking me to submit my questions to another email address.

Minnesota attorney general Keith Ellison has recently been quoted bragging (about President Donald Trump): “I know a scam when I see one.” He too declined to answer my questions asking when he saw that Feeding Our Future and its sites were operating a scam and what he did about it.

CHINA HAS UNDUE INFLUENCE IN CARIBBEAN AND SOUTH AMERICA, USA IS BEING ENCIRLED

US Warns Over China’s Expansion on its Doorstep

China’s growing presence in the Western Hemisphere is a threat to the United States, the U.S. State Department has told Newsweek in unusually stark comments.

America’s top diplomat, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, has said that the U.S. is not ready to accept greater Chinese influence in the Americas, the spokesperson said. “As stated by Secretary Rubio, we can’t live in a world in which China has more influence and more presence than we do in our region. The expanding role of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) in the Western Hemisphere threatens U.S. interests.”

The comments were made in response to queries from Newsweek about a planned joint space observatory in Chile between Chinese state scientific organizations and a private Chilean university. Newsweek detailed the observatory at Cerro Ventarrones in the Atacama Desert last December, reporting that parts of the project could be beyond the control of the Chilean authorities and that it could have dual-use—both civilian and military—purposes. This week the Chilean government told Newsweek that it was reviewing the agreement.

The State Department’s comments bring into sharp focus an increasingly fierce global competition for influence. China has expanded fast in the region, building or acquiring Latin American critical infrastructure such as ports including in Panama and Peru, roads, dams, electricity grids, even expanding its space capabilities with at least 16 facilities in the region, according to Newsweek research. Some Latin American countries are economically dependent on China. Chile sends 40 percent of its exports to China including copper, fish and cherries.

The Western Hemisphere encompasses a vast region stretching from Cape Horn at the southern end of the South American continent through to the Caribbean, Central America, the United States, Canada and Greenland.

The Chinese embassy in Washington, D.C., denied that China was engaging in geopolitical competition by expanding its presence in a region that traditionally has been under American influence.

“China-LAC cooperation is South-South cooperation,” the embassy told Newsweek in an email, referring to Latin American and the Caribbean. “There is only mutual support in this cooperation, no geopolitical calculations. In its engagement with LAC countries, China follows the principles of equality and mutual benefit, and never seeks sphere of influence or targets any party,” an embassy spokesperson said.

“What people in LAC countries want is to build their own home, not to become someone’s backyard; what they aspire to is independence and self-decision, not the Monroe Doctrine,” the Chinese embassy said.

The mystery Chinese crypto boss paying Elon Musk a fortune to go to space

In March, a surprise announcement that an investment group led by the American company BlackRock would buy 43 ports in 23 countries that belonged to Hutchison—including two at either end of the Panama Canal—infuriated the Chinese government, which has hit back with a series of strident criticisms of the sale, of Hutchison, and of its 96-year-old founder, Hong Kong magnate Li Ka-shing. The comments, carried in Chinese state-owned media and on government websites, indicate Beijing is exerting massive pressure on Li not to sell.

“Stop the transaction—don’t lose something big because of something small,” read the headline of one of two articles published on Friday by Ta Kung Pao, a state-owned Chinese newspaper based in Hong Kong, in another apparent warning to Li and Hutchison.

Asked to comment on the tussle over the Panama ports, the Chinese embassy spokesperson said: “Let me stress more broadly that China firmly opposes moves that infringe on and undermine other countries’ legitimate rights and interests through economic coercion, hegemonism and bullying.”

Beijing says that its global port acquisitions are to facilitate its Belt and Road Initiative for global commerce and development and are not strategic in nature.

HOW INTERNATIONAL MONEY LAUNDERING WORKS

HOW INTERNATIONAL MONEY LAUNDERING WORKS!

Every few weeks, fireworks light up the night sky in Cambodia, set off by scammers to salute their biggest swindles.

By the time the shells pop and crackle, somebody’s life savings are probably gone. Maybe the victim fell for an online romance scam or bought into a fake cryptocurrency exchange. Whatever the scheme, the money has vanished, sucked into a complex money-laundering network that moves billions of dollars at a dizzying speed.

The F.B.I., China’s Ministry of Public Security, Interpol and others have tried to combat scammers, who ​often lurk on social media and dating apps, luring people into bogus financial schemes or other ruses. Telecom companies have blocked numbers. Banks have issued repeated warnings.

Yet the industry persists because its money-laundering operation is so efficient. Unsuspecting victims worldwide lose tens of billions of dollars each year, money that must be scrubbed of its criminal origins and deposited into the legitimate economy. The money-laundering system is so hydra-headed that when governments strike it in one place, it pops up in another.

This underworld peeks out in the Cambodian capital, Phnom Penh, home to a global clearinghouse for money launderers. It can be glimpsed, too, in the coastal city of Sihanoukville, a notorious refuge for fraudsters. Scammers ply their trade from call centers, operating in fortified compounds or on the upper floors of unfinished high-rises. Seaside restaurants are packed with money launderers and other criminals doing business over spicy Chinese food.

We obtained a cache of documents, a kind of money-laundering handbook, and spoke to nearly a half-dozen scammers and their launderers. The documents are not linked to any one scam or victim but reveal a method for moving illicit money that has proved all but impossible to stop.

The map locates the Cambodian capital city of Phnom Penh, in south-central Cambodia, as well as the southern coastal city of Sihanoukville.

By The New York Times

The money launderers are as vital to criminals as getaway drivers are to bank robbers. Without them, there would be no loot.

Once scammers persuade strangers to part with their savings, they need to quickly move money from one account to another, and one country to another, before ​their targets discover the ruse and alert their banks​ or the police.

In the end, the money arrives “clean” — with virtually no trace to the original scam.

So how does it get done?

Following the trail led us, surprisingly, to an established financial conglomerate in Cambodia called Huione Group.

This is not a back-alley shop with a side hustle in cleaning dirty money. Huione is an established firm that does brisk and legitimate business in Southeast Asia and has satellite companies in other parts of the world. Its QR codes are everywhere in Cambodia — customers use them to pay their bills in hotels, restaurants and supermarkets. Huione ads are plastered along major highways. Its suite of financial services include banking and insurance.

But Huione (pronounced Hu-WAY-wahn) is a constellation of affiliates, and not all of them are legitimate. One arm offers bespoke money laundering services, according to the documents, which come from the company, and interviews with two people who are directly familiar with the operation. They spoke on the condition of anonymity out of fear for their safety. The company did not respond to requests for comment.

Another affiliate openly runs an online bazaar for criminals to find money launderers. The precise size of this marketplace is practically impossible to measure, but the analytics firm Elliptic has linked it to $26.8 billion in cryptocurrency transactions since 2021. The industry is so opaque that it is difficult to separate legitimate transactions from illegal ones, but Elliptic says the bazaar is the world’s largest illicit internet market.

Hun To, a cousin of Cambodia’s prime minister, is a director of one Huione company.

Huione’s clients include large criminal enterprises, such as a group in Myanmar that exploits human trafficking victims, according to a scammer, a money launderer and examinations of their cryptocurrency trade by the analytics firms Elliptic and Chainalysis.

Huione is a constellation of affiliates. The headquarters of one of its companies, Huione Pay, is in Phnom Penh, Cambodia.

And yet, this money-laundering network operates with impunity. The group has never been targeted for sanctions by any government. The cryptocurrency company Tether has frozen some of the group’s accounts, at the behest of unspecified law enforcement officials, and the messaging app Telegram has shut down some of its channels. But neither measure made a lasting effect.

This is how it works.

Imagine you’re a scammer, cheating people out of their life savings. You need a way to get money out of countries around the world. You need a matchmaker.

A matchmaker is a trusted intermediary who will shepherd your loot home. A good matchmaker has a worldwide network of people, known as mules, who can move money within hours.

The money mule can be a person or a shell company that controls a local bank account or a cryptocurrency wallet.

Once you find a matchmaker, he will deposit money into escrow, essentially ensuring he won’t run away with your money along the way.

Now you are ready to start your scam.

Let us say that you’ve tricked someone into sending you $40,000.

Step 1: You, the scam boss, cut a deal with a matchmaker. For a U.S. scam, the matchmaker typically demands 15 percent of the proceeds for himself and his mules.

Step 2: Your matchmaker finds the right mules for the job, and gets you a deal.

Step 3: The matchmaker sends you the mule’s bank account or crypto wallet details. You send that information to your victim.

Step 4: Your victim sends $40,000 to your money mule’s account.

Step 5: The mule moves the money from one account to another account and eventually converts it to cryptocurrency.

Step 6: Finally, the mule takes a cut for his services and sends the rest to the matchmaker. The matchmaker pays himself, and gives you $34,000.

Moving Bricks

Huione makes money at every step of the process.

First, one affiliate, which until recently was called Huione Guarantee, hosts the marketplace where scammers can find matchmakers. The matchmakers are essential to the system and their work is so repetitive that the Chinese name for it is “moving bricks,” according to Yanyu Chen, an anthropologist who studies money-laundering schemes in Cambodia.

The online bazaar is made up of thousands of chat groups on Telegram.

Some Huione Pay branches advertise money-exchange services, including converting between Tether cryptocurrency and U.S. dollars.

On these Telegram channels, anonymous users advertise money laundering services with the wink and nod of barely disguised language. The posts are public; anyone with the Telegram app can see them. Some merchants also sell stolen personal data, applications for impersonating others and other essential services to scammers.

One channel, called “Demand and Supply,” had more than 400,000 users with hundreds of daily messages, including advertisements for money-laundering services. After we sent questions to Huione Group and others in late February, Telegram said it had removed the channel. But another quickly sprung up, with some 250,000 members joining within a week.

Huione Guarantee did not respond to repeated requests for comment but has denied its relationship with Huione Group, the financial conglomerate. It even changed its name in October, shedding the Huione name. But it told customers on Telegram that Huione Group remained one of its “strategic partners and shareholders.”

Second, the bazaar guarantees the laundering transactions. Why? Because there is little honor among thieves, and scammers get scammed, too. To prove their credibility, matchmakers and money mules pay a deposit to Huione Guarantee, which holds it in escrow. This assures scammers that nobody will abscond with their money (or if someone does, that person will lose some of their own money).

The price to launder money is determined by the crime committed to get it. Scams like impersonating government officials incur a higher cost because the victims are more likely to call the police or alert their banks.

Location affects the price, too. Launderers charge up to 60 percent to clean money in China. That is because the country has tightened controls since 2020, arresting thousands of people and freezing large sums of money in a nationwide crackdown.

China and Cambodia have agreed to collaborate on law enforcement operations, leading to multiple arrests of mostly lower-level criminals. This has not made a dent on the scamming and money-laundering industries.

While the matchmaker deals are worked out privately, one-on-one, the bazaar makes money, too. It sells ads on public groups, charges maintenance fees for private groups and takes small cuts from deals. Most of the transactions are denominated in the cryptocurrency Tether, but some are conducted in cash, gold and through bank transfers. (The bazaar even issued its own cryptocurrency last year.)

The bazaar denies any criminal association in disclaimers posted on its website and on Telegram channels. “All business in the public groups is provided by third-party merchants, which has nothing to do with Huione Guarantee,” one post says.

Third, another Huione affiliate, Huione International Pay, is more directly involved in laundering money. It is a matchmaker itself, according to internal company documents and two people familiar with its operations.

The documents and insiders indicate that Huione International Pay operates with the efficiency of a legitimate, professional bank. It is based inside the conglomerate’s headquarters in Phnom Penh, a glass and concrete building with two panda statues standing guard by the entrance.

Huione International Pay operates out of the conglomerate’s headquarters in Phnom Penh, according to two people familiar with the operation.

One company department handles customer relations for scammers and other illicit actors. Another monitors Telegram channels. A third department tracks money mule accounts in at least a dozen countries, according to internal documents we reviewed.

Huione’s companies operate with a veneer of legitimacy in a country with “very limited regulatory enforcement, if any at all,” said John Wojcik, a threat analyst with the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime. The conglomerate’s obscure ownership structure creates challenges for targeted law enforcement, he said.

But even if Huione were shut down, other operators would quickly replace it, according to Mr. Wojcik.

“We can already see competitors now positioning themselves,” he said.

The National Bank of Cambodia, which regulates financial institutions, said the government was committed to ensuring that “financial transactions are safe and transparent.” It said the government was working to comply with international anti-money-laundering recommendations.

The national bank said that it had not renewed a license for Huione’s payment service (the one with the QR codes) to operate in Cambodia because it “did not meet the renewal requirements.” Huione quickly announced plans to register its business in Japan and Canada.

Hunting Mules

Money mules are the people who run the bank accounts and wallets.

Some mules open these bank accounts using fake identities, which artificial intelligence has made easier to create, according to Elad Fouks, who monitors fraud for Chainalysis.

Mules spread out the deposits and withdrawals to make them less noticeable to banks. Transactions below $10,000, for example, are less likely to draw attention. Most accounts and virtual wallets that are used for money laundering are active only for a few weeks or months.

Still, the mules — and not matchmakers or scammers — run the highest risk of getting caught.

In one U.S. court case that outlines the mechanics of such operations, the lead defendant, Daren Li, ran a money mule syndicate that registered 74 U.S. shell companies to launder nearly $80 million. The companies set up accounts at Bank of America and elsewhere.

When victims sent money to the accounts, the funds quickly moved to a bank in the Bahamas. From there, the money was used to purchase Tether cryptocurrency held on the exchange Binance.

Within days, the money moved to another virtual wallet.

Mr. Li worked with Huione International Pay to launder money, according to records we reviewed. But both the F.B.I. and the Secret Service declined to confirm the link. Mr. Li pleaded guilty in November to conspiracy to commit money laundering.

Payday

Imagine, once again, that you are a scam boss. Something has gone wrong: Your mule has been arrested; the bank froze his account; or maybe he ran off with your money.

In these cases, your matchmaker arbitrates disputes.

If the mule is at fault, the matchmaker will help retrieve the deposit from escrow and get it to you. If nobody is to blame, the losses are chalked up to the cost of doing business.

But, if all goes well, you will have your payday, usually in Tether, which you can convert to U.S. dollars at a casino or using Huione’s payment company.

The buildings adjacent to the Golden Sun Sky Casino & Hotel in Sihanoukville have hosted large scam operations, British authorities say.

You can use that money to pay your employees.

These days, scamming operations mimic professional institutions, employing thousands of people in marketing, sales and human resources departments. Often, many employees are victims of human trafficking who are coerced into scamming faraway targets. Some scammers even model their organizations on 19th century company towns, paying wages only after employees complete a season of work. Until then, workers receive company credit.

The wages enrich the restaurants, casinos and brothels that make a killing from captive employees who are often confined to fortified compounds.

Also on the scammer payroll are attractive models who are paid to join video calls and persuade victims to part with their cash. Some of them swap their faces using artificial intelligence.

Scammers, like everyone else, have to pay their landlords — for housing and, in their case, for protection.

And then there are the behind-the-scenes services, many of which can be bought through Huione’s bazaar. Scammers pay software developers to build websites that imitate investment platforms. They need internet and computer infrastructure. And they pay thieves to steal personal data on potential victims: national identification numbers, credit card information, location data and even details about previous hotel stays.

Some of the money will go to dealerships that sell luxury cars. Some is used to buy property in places like London and Dubai.

And of course, some of it will go to fireworks.

PLANNED PARENTHOOD CHIEF MAKES ALMOST $1 MILLION SALARY FROM TAXPAYER DOLLARS!

Planned Parenthood President Makes $904,000

Planned Parenthood’s affiliate CEOs made more money than 98% of other US workers in the 2023 fiscal year, just a year before the organization received nearly $700 million from taxpayers, a watchdog organization reported March 20.

Planned Parenthood Federation of America President Alexis McGill Johnson earned $904,014 in 2022-2023, according to American Life League’s 2025 Report on Planned Parenthood CEO Compensation.

Across America, according to the Social Security Administration, the average raise increase was 5.32% for 2022. Compared with her 2021 salary of $683,697, Johnson’s 2022-2023 salary marked a 32% increase, according to the American Life League report.

Over the span of 2020 to 2023, Planned Parenthood’s affiliate CEOs’ average salary increased from $317,564 to $352,661, according to the report.

The report also includes a list of the top 20 PPFA Affiliates’ CEO income. At the top was the CEO of Planned Parenthood Los Angeles, which has 24 facilities. The affiliate made $155 million in 2022-2023. Its CEO, Sue Dunlap, was compensated $875,942.

Planned Parenthood is considered a nonprofit organization. According to American Life League’s 2025 report, Planned Parenthood’s CEOs, on average, make more than triple the average salary of nonprofit CEOs.

Katie Brown, American Life League’s national director, decried the situation as a “vicious cycle” operating “right under our noses.”

“Hundreds of millions of our tax dollars are forked over to the oligarchs at Planned Parenthood, and in turn, they kill nearly half a million preborn Americans each year,” Brown said in a March 20 press release. “And the reward? A government-funded nonprofit CEO making nearly $1 million a year.”

“That should enrage Americans,” Xavios continued. “At this time in America, when it is clear that there has been an extremely inappropriate misuse of funds by our government and by other nongovernmental organizations, Planned Parenthood reeks of guilt.”

In 2021, the top 11 PPFA employees’ salaries totaled $5.48 million. In 2023, that total had increased to $5,737,115.

The data compilation comes shortly after a bombshell New York Times report found that a number of Planned Parenthood state affiliates are struggling with financial difficulties, high staff turnover rates, and dismal patient care.

As CatholicVote previously reported, Johnson said that the Times article, which had a number of harrowing anecdotal stories based on patients’ and employees’ experience, lacked context.

She also said that Planned Parenthood workers “are trying to provide care in a system that has very inequitable reimbursement rates.”

A number of Planned Parenthood affiliates, including in New York, Missouri, and Illinois, announced several facility closures in recent months. CatholicVote reported March 20 that Planned Parenthood of Greater New York (PPGNY) is closing its only facility in Manhattan, citing increasing operational costs and insufficient Medicaid reimbursements. Four other Planned Parenthood facilities in New York have closed in recent months, according to the Gothamist.

In January, Planned Parenthood of Illinois announced it would be closing four facilities.

American Life League’s report concluded that the climbing CEO salaries make the abortion giant’s financial trouble claims “seem hollow at best.”

The report’s lead researcher, Katherine Van Dyke, noted in the March 20 release that the increasing earnings of the CEOs conflict with the argument of the company’s financial decline.

Van Dyke said the report “shows that taxpayer money is truly the fuel for Planned Parenthood’s earnings and that the financial facts from their own reports do not align with the organization’s claims of financial woes.”

Elected officials must review this data and take appropriate action, she added.

“Now is the time for our country’s leaders to truly assess these numbers and give Planned Parenthood the boot when it comes to receiving government reimbursements or benefitting from any form of appropriations,” Van Dyke said. “In other words, it is time to defund this very wealthy and profitable abortion megacorporation.”

PRESIDENT GUTS THE FEDERAL EV FLEET, SELLING IT ALL!

Trump pulls plug on government’s 8,000 EV chargers

The free ride for Biden’s EV mandate comes to a screeching halt.

The word has come down from on high: Shut down the power, and sell the fleet.

The Trump administration’s General Services Administration is set to pull the plug on all EV charging stations in federal buildings nationwide. In addition, the agency plans to off-load newly purchased EVs from the federal vehicle fleet.

Shutting this down isn’t just about saving pennies; it’s a signal. The Trump administration is pumping the brakes on the whole EV push, big time.

Tell me again how Trump’s in the tank for Elon?

Fleet cheat

The GSA is the agency that keeps the federal government’s buildings humming and manages a massive fleet of about 650,000 vehicles.

Under Biden, the GSA went all in on EVs — ordering over 58,000 zero-emission rides and installing thousands of charging ports nationwide. The goal? Electrify everything by 2035.

But now, with Trump back in the driver’s seat, the GSA is hitting the brakes hard. It is pulling the plug on hundreds of charging stations — think 8,000 plugs going dark — and off-loading those brand-new EVs faster than you can say “range anxiety.”

The reasoning? These assets aren’t “mission critical.” Translation: The GSA doesn’t think EVs fit the government’s real priorities.

Free ride

Let’s break this down. These chargers weren’t just for government vehicles and federal employees; they were being used for personal EVs, too. We’re talking Denver Federal Center, VA sites, military bases, and other places where federal employees could cop a complimentary charge for their personal vehicles.

The free ride is over. And GSA is unloading its electric vehicle fleets, too. No word yet on whether the government is selling them cheap or just parking them in some giant government lot. Either way, this is a seismic shift. The Biden administration spent billions of your tax dollars to push this green dream, and now the GSA has yanked the emergency brake.

And let’s not kid ourselves — shutting this down isn’t just about saving pennies; it’s a signal. The Trump administration is pumping the brakes on the whole EV push, big time.

War on the green agenda

It’s no secret that President Trump is not a fan of Biden’s EV mandate. He’s already paused $5 billion in public charger funding and nixed plans for more federal EVs. This is war on the green agenda. Biden’s team dropped BILLIONS of dollars of your money to electrify everything by 2035.

The GSA is responsible for managing federal assets including a fleet of approximately 650,000 vehicles. Under the Biden administration, it embarked on a plan to transition to zero-emission vehicles. That included the procurement of over 58,000 EVs and the installation of more than 25,000 charging ports. It never came anywhere close to achieving those figures though, and this new directive puts that plan to a swift end.

It’s not clear where all those unwanted EVs will go. Technically, the GSA could simply take the vehicles out of the fleet and put them into storage rather than sell them at a loss.

It’s also uncertain how the agency will replace the vehicles being phased out; possibilities include purchasing new gas-powered models or reallocating older ones from retirement. I hope they reuse the older ones and stop wasting our tax dollars.

Waste management

Three years ago, the Biden administration gave out a total of $7.5 billion in grants for states to develop EV charging infrastructure; since then, only about a dozen charging stations have been built nationwide.

This is a waste of taxpayer dollars. Carmakers need to shift gears and stop cranking out EVs that are not selling and sitting on dealer lots. Making what their customers want rather than what is mandated will return the profits they once enjoyed.

SECRET CLUB OF JUDGES TO THWART ADMINISTRATION AND CHIEF JUSTICE IS IN THE SECRET MEETINGS!

REVEALED: Chief Justice John Roberts Caught in Secretive, Invite-Only Club of Elite Judges and Lawyers That Includes James Boasberg, Beryl Howell, Amit Mehta and Ketanji Brown Jackson

by Jim Hoft Mar. 20, 2025 
Members of the invite-only Inns of Court Club in Washington DC – James Boasbrg, Chief Justice John Roberts, Amit Mehta, Beryl Howell, and Ketanji Brown Jackson.

Investigative journalist Bad Kitty Unleashed reported on Thursday that Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts is involved in a secretive, invite-only club for elite judges in Washington, DC.

The secretive club America Inns of Court also includes the radical America-hating judges James Boasberg, Beryl Howell, Ketanji Brown Jackson, and Amit Mehta—all hard-left judges and Trump-haters.

John Roberts has been Chief Justice of the Supreme Court since September 2005. What in the world is he doing fraternizing in a secret group with far-left colleagues?

This is a shocking development.

Source: Americans Inn of Courts

The Supreme Court Chief Justice is holding secretive meetings with far-left district judges who are running a judicial coup on the current President of the United States! This is a huge development.

Just think, two days ago, on Tuesday, Chief Justice Roberts released a statement attacking President Donald Trump for calling on these same crooked District judges to be impeached!

And now we have evidence that John Roberts was in a secret group with these same judges!

Here is what Roberts said to the US President, who is under siege by the judicial branch.

“For more than two centuries, it has been established that impeachment is not an appropriate response to disagreement concerning a judicial decision. The normal appellate review process exists for that purpose.”

So who all is linked to this selective and secretive club? And recall all of their negative Trump rulings?

– Judge James Boasberg (President)
– Scotus Ketanji Brown Jackson (Vice President)
– Judge Amit Mehta (Secretary and a meeting held at her court.)
– Judge Beryl Howell
Justice (Professionalism Award)
-Justice John Roberts (Honorary Bencher of the Middle Temple)

The list includes some of the most soulless and vicious judges in DC District Court.

Wasn’t it something else that Judge John Roberts broke ethical conduct and stuck up for his, “brother Boasberg”?

George Soros has funded a fellowship at Middle Temple where John Roberts is a master of the bench.

First let me very quickly explain how this secret society called, the American Inns of Court came about. In the UK, they have the four Inns of Court that dates back hundreds of years. One of those is called Middle Temple (see Roberts photo). Well, the US created the American version of this in recent decades. There’s a massive list of branches.

The branch many of our judges belong to is The Edward Bennett Williams (EBW) Inn of Court. It’s so secretive, they deleted most signs of this branch from their website although they still met.

Now here’s Judge Beryl Howell. She was nominated by President Judge Boasberg, and VP Ketanji Brown Jackson approved of her nomination. Boasberg claims it was her work on Jan 6 that contributed to his choosing her for the American Inns Of Court Professionalism award.

Let me show you the scant meeting info that I found which included the DOJ and Inspector General Horowitz in attendance.

1. The Edward Bennett Williams Inn of Court: BOP Custody / Current Status of BOP / Early Release & Reentry: Washington DC, 2/15/24

“Joel Sickler – invited panelist at EBW Inn of Court (February15, 2024, Washington DC). The meeting held in the District of Columbia Court of Judge Amit Mehta. In addition to panelists, approximately 150 lawyers including several Federal District Judges were also present. The panel was presented primarily with Michael Horowitz, DOJ Inspector General and Seth Eichenholtz, Deputy Assistant Attorney General – also featuring Vanessa Rojas, a returning citizen with direct and learned perspective regarding constructive reforms within the Bureau of Prisons.”

Also there was:

“Seth Rosenthal, Chief Deputy Attorney General for Office of AG District of Columbia.”

2. Mathew Bester, 3 years ago in a quote Linkdn post:

“I really enjoyed talking about the latest DOJ developments last week on a great panel.”

Matthew was reposting Brent Gurney’s Post and yes the DOJ was there:

“I want to thank my co-hosts, Erin K. of Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, Lisa Phelan of Morrison & Foerster LLP, Inn member G. Zachary Terwilliger of Vinson & Elkins and our guest panelists Jim Fredricks of the DOJ Antitrust Division, Tiffany Rider of Axinn, Veltrop & Harkrider LLP and Matthew Bester of Accenture, for a robust and fascinating discussion of the issues.”

3. Yearly gala, I’ll review this later. But the Assistant United States Attorney at U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of Virginia replied in a comment. Was he there?

“Great job, Rebecca!”

I’ve seen lawsuits online for this secret org over recusal worries with this private club. I also saw a lawsuit that stated their secrecy is dangerous to democracy.

Freaking exposé! FIVE anti Trump judges are involved in a secretive, INVITE ONLY club for judges and lawyers called the American Inns of Court. Even the membership and meetings are secret. But somehow the DOJ has shown up at meetings. At least since Biden had been in… pic.twitter.com/PxbBQLWvtF

This part of the report is just shocking!

Judge Beryl Howell was nominated to the American Inns of Court for our outstanding work sending hundreds of Trump-supporters to prison for months and years for walking inside the US Capitol on January 6, 2021!

These are NOT good people! And Beryl Howell has an atrocious record of partisan and abuse of Trump supporters. She is the definition of wicked.

DODGE STOPS CRAZY WASTEFUL SPENDING ALL OVER THE WORLD, WHO IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS THEFT OF TAXPAYER MONEY??

Elon Musk Confirms DOGE Blocked $52M Payment To KLAUS SCHWAB’S WEF-AMERICA HATING GROUP!

DOGE Cancels $52 Million Payment To Klaus Schwab’s World Economic Forum!

 

Now today Elon Musk himself has confirmed our reporting was 100% accurate!

Musk confirmed the news by replying to @UpdateNews724 with the note: “True. You’re welcome.”

I love it!

Here was our original report:

DOGE Cancels $52 Million Payment To Klaus Schwab’s World Economic Forum!

DOGE has uncovered a lot of absurd things….fraud, waste and abuse everywhere!

$50 million worth of condoms to Gaza being near the top of the list — I know, I know, not THAT Gaza, Gaza in Mozambique (as if that somehow makes it better?).

But there may be a new king of the hill when it comes to ridiculous payments: $52 million to the rich world “elites” over at the World Economic Forum!

That news just broke in this list of new DOGE savings from this week:

🚨 DOGE BREAKING: US taxpayer dollars were going to be spent on the following items, all which have been cancelled:

-$69mm for the Eurasia Foundation to do “digital transformation activity” in Europe
-$32mm to Internews for programs including “media enabling democracy,… pic.twitter.com/82ZbWHfF8Y

🚨 DOGE BREAKING: US taxpayer dollars were going to be spent on the following items, all which have been cancelled:

-$69mm for the Eurasia Foundation to do “digital transformation activity” in Europe
-$32mm to Internews for programs including “media enabling democracy, inclusion, and accountability in Moldova” and the promotion of “sustainable media outlets”
-$7mm for the American Bar Association to promote the “resilience” of the “Eurasian legal sector and civic society”
-$520mm for a consultant to do ESG investments in Africa and “mobilize private sector resources and expertise”
-$25mm to “promote biodiversity conservation and promote licit livelihoods” by developing “socially responsible” behaviors in Colombia
-$40mm to “improve the social and economic inclusion of sedentary migrants”
-$42mm for Johns Hopkins to research and drive “social and behavior change” in Uganda
-$45mm to “address[] the needs, opportunities, and challenges identified by activists and other civic actors engaged in nonviolent collective action”
-$52mm for the World Economic Forum

Now ordinarily I would not bring that to you as confirmed news until I saw it from a better source other than DogeDesigner (no offense, but not affiliated with the Government DOGE), but Mr. DOGE himself, Elon Musk, reposted the news and confirmed the WEF payments in this post:

More tax dollars saved.

Why was American taxpayer money sent to the WEF? It’s a wealthy boondoggle in Switzerland! https://t.co/hLP8DchbKI

— Elon Musk (@elonmusk) February 25, 2025

 

So that’s good enough confirmation for me!

I agree with MomoMoni that whoever orchestrated this needs to be tried for treason:

Whoever put $52 million in there for the WEF needs to be tried for treason. Funding a global entity that is intent on destroying the American lifestyle. https://t.co/eJO5rz6y2v

— MomoMoni (@Shakapahona) February 25, 2025

This is literally giving aid to the enemy….

The WEF hates us.The hate America.They hate our way of life.

They hate Trump.And we’re sending them $52 million?

Aren’t they rich enough anyway?Stop this madness!

FEDERAL JUDGES DISREGARD ESTABLISHED COURT RULES TO STOP PRESIDENT TRUMPS DISMISSAL OF BLOATED WORK FORCE

Federal Judges Are Trampling Court Rules To Obstruct Trump’s Agenda, Expert Says

“These judges are not following the law.”

Federal judges are violating the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure in their rush to stop a series of executive actions taken by the Trump administration on immigration, government reform, and other issues.

District court judges are repeatedly failing to abide by Rule 65(c) which requires parties seeking an injunction to post a bond before an injunction can be issued, according to American Path Initiative senior legal fellow Daniel Huff. Huff, who served as a lawyer in the Trump White House and for the House and Senate Judiciary committees, said that without the security of the bond, the judges are ripping off taxpayers whose money is then tied up in legal wrangling.

Last week, two federal judges in separate opinions ordered the Trump administration to reinstate nearly 25,000 probationary employees recently fired from the government.

“Now, if you have to reinstate 25,000 people, you’re paying them salaries, you’re paying them benefits. The loaded wage there is on average maybe $100,000,” Huff said in an interview with The Daily Wire. “Essentially, what you’re creating here is a requirement that the government spend, on a per month basis, something like $100 to $200 million to reinstate these people. That’s a huge cost.”

“What if it turns out, as it likely will, that the Supreme Court agrees that the government had the authority to fire these probationary workers? How does the taxpayer get our money back?” Huff continued. “The answer is that the people who are seeking the injunction are supposed to post money up front in case it turns out that the government had authority to act.

Rule 65(c) is supposed to be a hurdle to filing “frivolous cases,” according to Huff. The rule compels plaintiffs to put up a security that should scale alongside the size and cost of the complaint.

“This makes a lot of sense because it filters out bad cases. You’re not going to post that bond as a plaintiff unless you really think you’re going to win,” Huff said. “But it’s not being done here. These judges are not following the law. They are not. They’re issuing injunctions without bonds, and that is a clear and unambiguous violation of the laws that govern them.”

Huff said that the abuse of federal rules around bonds has been a pattern across federal judges issuing injunctions against the Trump administration. The injunctions have been sweeping actions that stand to cost taxpayers into the hundreds of millions of dollars.

The injunctions have roiled critics within the administration and others on the right. Florida Governor Ron DeSantis has called for Congress to strip those judges of their jurisdictions. Tech titan Elon Musk has said those judges should be removed from office.

Huff expressed doubt about the viability of those tactics. He said that the makeup of Congress, with Republicans not having enough votes to overcome a 60-vote threshold in the Senate, makes each suggestion practically impossible without Democratic support.

Along Huff’s line of thinking, the White House issued guidance to federal agencies last week advising them to push federal judges issuing injunctions on Rule 65(c).

“Consistent with applicable law, the heads of executive departments and agencies (agencies), in consultation with the Attorney General, are directed to ensure that their respective agencies properly request under Rule 65(c) that Federal district courts require plaintiffs to post security equal to the Federal Government’s potential costs and damages from a wrongly issued injunction,” the memo says. “The scope of this directive covers all lawsuits filed against the Federal Government seeking an injunction where agencies can show expected monetary damages or costs from the requested preliminary relief, unless extraordinary circumstances justify an exception.”

DEEP STATE HOLDOVERS SABOTAGE DODGE BY VANDALIZING THE ENTRY LOCKS!

Congressionally funded institute sabotaged its building to keep out DOGE:

Federal judge refuses to issue temporary restraining order against DOGE despite saying she’s “very offended” by how it operated at the U.S. Institute of Peace.

Sttaff of the U.S. Institute of Peace, ANOTHER CASH SUCKING UNACCOUNTABLE GOVERNMENT ENTITY, physically removed locks from exterior doors, “effectively destroying entry mechanisms,” before the Department of Government Efficiency could enter its building at the far west end of the National Mall, according to photos obtained by the Daily Caller News Foundation.

The congressionally funded organization, whose board is appointed by the president and must include the secretaries of state and defense and president of National Defense University, allegedly flouted President Trump’s downsizing executive order, leading to the removal of its President George Moose on Friday.

“Much of USIP’s leadership, including Moose, barricaded themselves on the building’s fifth floor, closing window shades and blocking access points in a last-ditch effort to resist DOGE’s entry,” DCNF reported, citing a “Trump administration official involved in the USIP leadership transition who requested anonymity.”

The official also said USIP leaders disconnected information technology infrastructure including phonelines and internet connections, “forcing communication among staff through walkie-talkies,” in DCNF’s paraphrase. Another photo shows a flyer distributed throughout the building with the names and pictures of “anticipated DOGE officials,” and told staff to “immediately notify the on-duty lieutenant” if they came to the building.

U.S. District Judge Beryl Howell refused to issue a temporary restraining order Wednesday against DOGE’s takeover, saying its removed board members likely don’t have legal standing to sue, even though Howell said she was “very offended by how DOGE has operated at the institute,” The Hill reported.

“Mr. Moose denied lawful access to Kenneth Jackson, the Acting USIP President (as approved by the USIP Board),” and D.C. police escorted Jackson into the building,” DOGE said Monday night after the standoff. It said Moose “even tried to fire USIP’s private security team when said security team went to give access to Mr. Jackson.”
