How deep does fraud go?

With the daily developments out of Minnesota of the multi-billion-dollar fraud include possible remittances to Somali terrorist groups of US taxpayer money, but who is to blame?

Sure, it is easy to focus on the Somali community as one after another are pleading or found guilty, but was their crime just a crime of opportunity or does it go deeper?

My thoughts are that this was not only encouraged by state, local and federal government officials and employees but may have been part of a larger plan to defraud American citizens and line pockets.

We need to demand a full accounting of all money issued and spent. If DOGE could dig through years of government waste in a few months, I am sure they could dig through this in half the time.

While we are at it, can we get the Defense Department audited? Seems they don’t have accountants who can balance a checking account.
