FOXNEWS IS NOT
OVERLY CONCERNED WITH DEFENSE
SPENDING AND THE TRILLIONS OF
DOLLARS WE WASTED IN IRAQ.
BUT
THEY FOUND OUT ONE PART OF OUR
BUDGET THAT IS UNACCEPTABLE, WE
ARE GIVING TOO MUCH MONEY TO THE
POOR.
HOW ABOUT THE TRILLIONS IN
TAX CUTS TO THE RICH AND
CORPORATIONS, ESPECIALLY ONES
THAT TRUMP IS PROMISING NOW TO
THE TUNE OF $10 TRILLION OVER
THE NEXT DECADE.
YEAH, WE ARE
GOING TO PUT TOO MUCH MONEY.
LET'S LET FOX NEWS EXPLAIN.
FOODSTAMP FRAUD IS AT AN
ALL-TIME HIGH.
IT IS ESTIMATED
$70 MILLION OF TAXPAYER MONEY
WAS WASTED ON FOODSTAMP FRAUD.
IS IT TIMED AND THE PROGRAM
ALTOGETHER?
OH MY GOD, $70 MILLION, THAT
SOUNDS A LOT OF MONEY.
I WILL
GIVE THE CONTEXT IN A SECOND AND
YOU WILL SEE WHAT A LITTLE MONEY
IS IN A LOT OF MONEY IS WHEN IT
COMES TO THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT.
DO YOU NOTICE WHAT SHE SAID?
IS
IT TIME TO END THE PROGRAM
ALTOGETHER?
CAN WE APPLY THE
SAME STANDARD TO THE PENTAGON?
I WANT TO GIVE YOU ONE MORE
CLIP.
THIS PROGRAM, THE SNAP
PROGRAM, THE RECOGNITION OF THE
FOOD STAMP PROGRAM HAS BEEN
GRIPED WITH PROBLEMS SINCE THE
INCEPTION.
WE FINALLY ELIMINATED
THE GREED AND FED THE NEED.
UNFORTUNATELY 40 YEARS LATER WE
STILL SEE THE SAME PROBLEMS OF
FRAUD WITH ABUSE.
AND REALLY
JUST OVERSPENDING ON THIS
PARTICULAR PROGRAM.
FRAUD AND ABUSE, WE FOUND IT.
NOW LET'S GIVE YOU 
THE FACTS.
YOU CAN SAY THAT IS A SMALL
MISTAKE.
FIRST OF 
ALL THAT IS
FOX NEWS CLAIMING THOSE NUMBERS,
BUT IT IS NOT A SMALL MISTAKE.
THEY HAVE CREATED A FALSE
URGENCY.
IS ACTUALLY LAST YEAR'S
NUMBERS.
LET'S KEEP GOING.
WITH
GIVE YOU CONTEXT FOR THIS FOOD
STAMP PROGRAM.
OTHER STUFF IS
99.9% OF THE BUDGET.
IS THERE
FRAUD AND ABUSE?
THERE IS FRAUD
IN ALMOST EVERY DEPARTMENT OF
THE GOVERNMENT TO SOME DEGREE AS
YOU ARE ABOUT TO SEE. AND ALSO
IN PRIVATE CORPORATIONS THE LIST
GOES ON.
IF YOU WANT TO ATTACK
ANYTHING, IT'S PRETTY EASY TO DO
IT.
CONTEXT IS IMPORTANT, LET ME
GIVE IT TO YOU.
SO, 99.9% OF THE
BUDGET DOES NOT SNAP.
AND 99.9%
OF SNAP SPENDING IS NOT
FRAUDULENT.
THAT IS ACTUALLY AN
EXCELLENT RECORD.
IT IS A TINY
PERCENTAGE 
OF THEIR BUDGET, AND
FOX NEWS IS LIKE NEWS ALERT.
WE
HAVE TO GET RID OF THE THING
THAT HELPS POOR PEOPLE.
GOD,
THEY ARE GROSS.
THAT HUNDRED $25
BILLION IS FROM A RECENT REPORT
FROM THE DEFENSE DEPARTMENT.
THEY ARE CONTRACTED OUT TO A
GROUP OF VERY SUCCESSFUL
BUSINESSMAN.
IT IS TO 
THE TUNE
OF $125 BILLION OVER FIVE YEARS.
THAT IS LARGER THAN THE ENTIRE
FOODSTAMP BUDGET.
BUT THE FRAUD
THEY FOUND IN THE FOODSTAMP
PROGRAM IS 70 MILLION, THE OTHER
FRAUD IS 125 BILLION.
NO, WE
DON'T TALK ABOUT THAT BECAUSE
FOX NEWS LOVES DEFENSE
CONTRACTORS.
THEY ARE PART OF
THE CORRUPTION.
THEY ARE LIKE
HEY, LET'S CONVINCE OUR
CONSERVATIVE AUDIENCE THAT GIANT
AMOUNTS OF WASTE 
IS AWESOME.
WE
WOULD JUST KEEP LOSING BILLIONS
UPON BILLIONS.
FOX NEWS IS LIKE
THAT IS GREAT, THAT IS AWESOME.
I WANT YOU TO KNOW THEIR AGENDA,
THAT IS THEIR REAL AGENDA.
SO
THAT YOU CAN SEE PAST THEIR
OBVIOUS
LIES.
