Here's Treasury's Plan To Take Down Somali Fraud Rings
While we patiently await more nothingburgers from DOJ's next overdue round of redacted Epstein files, the Treasury Department is going after Somali fraud rings...
On Friday, Secretary Scott Bessent announced a sweeping crackdown on government benefits fraud that has already cost Minnesota taxpayers billions. The initiatives aim to close the loopholes that have made the system rife with abuse and to increase oversight.
“President Trump has instructed the administration to bring accountability for the hardworking people of Minnesota,” Bessent said while visiting the gopher state. “Under Democratic Governor Tim Walz, welfare fraud has spiraled out of control.

"Affordability!": Trump Calls For Temporary 10 Percent Cap On Credit Card Interest Rates
President Trump said on Jan. 9 that he would call for a one-year cap on credit card interest rates of 10 percent, potentially starting later this month, though its enforcement may depend on Congress.
In a Truth Social post, Trump said that Americans are being “ripped off” by credit card companies that charge interest rates between 20 and 30 percent, and vowed his administration will put an end to it.
“AFFORDABILITY! Effective January 20, 2026, I, as President of the United States, am calling for a one year cap on Credit Card Interest Rates of 10%,” the president stated.
The cap's proposed start date coincides with the anniversary of Trump's second-term inauguration and, if implemented, would fulfill his 2024 election campaign pledge.
Who could have seen that coming?
