How much of our $40 trillion national debt can be attributed to welfare state fraud?

$1.3 Billion In Attempted Medicare Fraud.

Another day, another story of someone using the welfare state to massively defraud the federal government.

An illegal alien from the country of Georgia allegedly spent five months running a Pennsylvania medical equipment company that filed $1.3 billion in fraudulent claims against Medicare and private insurers, then funneled the proceeds to a Russia-based criminal network.

Five months for $1.3 billion…

…in attempted fraud. Georgia Fraud Guy is quite the go-getter when it comes to ripping off the American taxpayer.

Federal prosecutors say this is the largest health care fraud case the Justice Department (DOJ) has ever prosecuted.

Erekle Gugava, 33, was indicted in Massachusetts on one count of conspiracy to launder money. The case arises from Operation Gold Rush.

Maryland Synagogue Challenges Restrictive Gun Law
Montgomery County officials want to prevent houses of worship from making security decisions.

Houses of worship are often targeted by people with murder on their minds. That’s especially true of synagogues, which were disproportionately attacked even before October 7 and have since been on the receiving end of the “antizionist” reframing of hatred of Jews. But in Montgomery County, Maryland, officials recently renewed efforts to forbid the carrying of firearms within 100 yards of “places of public assembly,” including churches and synagogues. Now, some security volunteers are defying the intrusive law as they await the outcome of courtroom pushback against the restrictions.

Violating the First, Second, and Fourteenth Amendments

“Today, the Justice Department filed suit against Montgomery County, Maryland (County). The complaint alleges that the County’s newly enacted Bill 23-26 violates the Second Amendment by prohibiting law-abiding citizens from possessing firearms in daily life,” the U.S. Department of Justice announced on August 3. “Bill 23-26 prohibits carrying firearms at thousands of locations, and also creates an arbitrary 100-yard exclusion zone around each location. The law applies even if the person carrying a firearm is duly licensed and has the express consent of the property owner.”

DOJ Files Amicus to Supreme Court on Gun Ban Cases

The Department of Justice has filed a 40-page amicus brief with the U.S. Supreme Court in the consolidated cases of Viramontes v. Cook County (Illinois) and Grant v. Higgins (Connecticut), which will be held on Wednesday, Dec. 2 beginning at 10 a.m.

The document, signed by Solicitor General John D. Sauer and Assistant Attorneys General Harmeet Dhillon and Brett A. Schumate, includes some blockbuster observations from an agency that has historically not been supportive of Second Amendment challenges to state and local gun control laws/

“The right to keep and bear arms guaranteed by the Second Amendment is among the “fundamental rights necessary to our system of ordered liberty.” McDonald v. City of Chicago, 561 U.S. 742, 778 (2010). Millions of Americans exercise that right by owning an AR-15 rifle, which is ‘the most popular rifle in the country.’ Smith & Wesson Brands, Inc. v. Estados Unidos Mexicanos, 605 U.S. 280, 297 (2025). Yet the State of Connecticut and Cook County, Illinois, have made the possession of AR-15s a crime.”
That paragraph is immediately followed by this: “AR-15s a crime. Those bans are unconstitutional. A firearms re striction comports with the Second Amendment only if it is ‘consistent with the Nation’s historical tradition of firearm regulation.’ NYSRPA v. Bruen, 597 U.S. 1, 24 (2022). And this country’s regulatory tradition precludes banning arms that are ‘in common use’ among law abiding citizens for lawful purposes. District of Colum bia v. Heller, 554 U.S. 570, 624 (2008). That common use test has deep historical roots in English and American law. This Court has already adopted that test and has repeatedly applied it to evaluate the validity of arms bans. See Bruen, 597 U.S. at 47; Heller, 554 U.S. at 627; United States v. Miller, 307 U.S. 174, 179 (1939).”
While some in the firearms community have criticized the brief as being weak in comments at Ammoland News, others are cheering the fact that it was filed.

Remember the 2003 movie The Core?

GPS Glitched Across The US by as Much as 33 Feet. Scientists Have Never Seen This Before.

In November 2025, Earth was buffeted by several massive eruptions of solar material that slammed into the magnetosphere.

For many, the result was wonder. Much of the world watched in awe as a solar superstorm lit up Earth’s skies with dazzling auroras to rare low latitudes.

The sword, however, was double-edged. The same storm also wrought havoc on the technology we rely on here on the ground.

And now, scientists led by space physicist Endawoke Yizengaw of The Aerospace Corporation in the US have discovered that the disruption was stranger – and more widespread – than anyone realized.

In a new analysis of data collected during the storm, the researchers found widespread, coast-to-coast disturbances in the atmosphere across the continental US – a phenomenon that has never been seen before on this scale.
That may not seem like much, but the effects of this would have been profound – throwing GPS off by more than 10 meters (33 feet) in some places. That’s significant enough to disrupt precision agriculture and autonomous vehicles, the researchers say.

“The results underscore the importance of accurate understanding of various space weather phenomena to enhance our predictive capabilities through coordinated observations and physics‐based modeling and ultimately reducing disruptions to RF applications during space weather events,” they write in a paper published in Geophysical Research Letters.
