Like a drunkard pledging to drink one less pint of whiskey a year, President Joe Biden is promising to rescue Americans from COVID fraud.
House Oversight Committee Chairman Rep. James Comer aptly labeled COVID fraud as "The greatest theft of American taxpayer dollars in history." Congress and Presidents Donald Trump and Biden sought to spend COVID-relief money as quickly as possible while asking few if any questions.
Biden will soon propose legislative reforms to "Require states to use the tools already at their disposal to identify fraud." If only Washington's Best and Brightest thought of that earlier!
In his State of the Union Address last month, Biden promised, "Every dollar we put into fighting fraud, the taxpayer will get back at least 10 times as much." If that's the case, wouldn't fraud prosecutions pay for themselves?
Some Biden initiatives would cost little or nothing, such as permitting the Labor Department inspector general to "Easily access multi-state data to detect instances of multi-state fraud where the same identity is inappropriately used to apply for benefits in multiple states."
The real purpose of Biden's $1.6 billion program is to convince taxpayers that Biden gives a damn about fraud.
Summon Trump, Biden, and a busload of lawmakers and top officials to testify under oath: Why did they approve COVID relief programs that were practically designed to maximize looting? What steps, if any, did they take to curb losses after pilfering reached epidemic levels?
