Eric Burlison: Medicare, Medicaid waste skyrocketed during Biden Administration


(From Seventh District Congressman Eric Burlison)

Over the past 20 years, the U.S. government has wasted $2.7 trillion in improper payments—money lost to fraud, overpayments, and bureaucratic mismanagement. 

In just the last year, $175 billion was sent to ineligible recipients, including the deceased and criminals. Another $44 billion went unaccounted for, with agencies unsure whether the payments were legitimate.








The biggest culprits? Medicare and Medicaid, with waste skyrocketing under the Biden Administration—$764 billion lost due to fraud, inaccurate records, and poor oversight.

The DOGE Subcommittee is taking action to expose and eliminate this waste, ensuring unelected bureaucrats are held accountable. This is not a partisan issue—it's about putting trillions of dollars back in the hands of American taxpayers. The American people deserve full transparency, and that’s exactly what this investigation aims to deliver. No more putting America last.

What we've come to expect: The waxman cometh with more misleading and inaccurate information, that's a fact. How many of you magats approve of president musk having access to YOUR personal financial information and top secret access? How many of you notice that waxman failed to mention the complete failure of doge by firing all the strategic nuclear employees and then looking like complete idiots trying to locate said fired employees to get them back on the job? How many of you realize the human cost of mass firings? I'm finding hope today even in the face of this catastrophe that's unfolding in front of us each day. There's an uprising beginning to take root across the country and I'm super charged to be a part of it. The defeat of maga will be a pivot point in freeing this country from tyranny, on par with the union crushing the redneck confederates. Make no mistake, conflating maga with the misguided and cruel confederacy would be appropriate!

Blah blah blah Dr. PHD 6:27, you are so far out of touch with the real world. The corruption he's uncovering is far more than we suspected.

Your doctor prescribes you a new pair of glasses 607. Your blindness to the truth is leaving you stumbling over yourself and the imaginary monsters under your bed.
