While speaking in front of the press recently, House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries said that the Democrat Party\u2019s promise to the American people is that they will \u2018hold the crooks accountable.\u2019<\/p>\n

What are they going to do, jail themselves?<\/p>\n

When it comes to fraud, the Democrats have been fighting tooth and nail to defend the offenders. In California, they went so far as introducing legislation to stop people like Nick Shirley from exposing fraud and abuse.<\/p>\n

And yet, Jeffries stands there with a straight face and says this:<\/p>\n

\n

Democrat House leader Hakeem Jeffries claims that Democrats will now fight fraud:<\/p>\n

\u201cWe will hold the crooks accountable\u2026If you have been stealing from the American people, we\u2019re coming after you.\u201d<\/p>\n

Didn’t you vote against condemning fraud against U.S. government? pic.twitter.com\/wBC7i8MZ3P<\/a><\/p>\n

\u2014 RNC Research (@RNCResearch) July 23, 2026<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Just a month ago, the House passed Resolution 1335, which focused on fraud.<\/p>\n

It passed but 177 House Democrats voted against it.<\/p>\n

From the Legis Website:<\/a><\/p>\n

\n

House Passes Anti-Fraud Resolution Demanding Eligibility Checks<\/strong><\/p>\n

The House passed H.Res. 1335 on June 11, condemning actors who seek to defraud the federal government and expressing the sense of the chamber that eligibility should be verified before federal payments go out the door. The H.Res. 1335 floor vote was 235\u2013177, with every Republican who voted casting a \u201cyes\u201d and 177 Democrats voting against it.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The resolution is non-binding, but it lands at a moment when Republicans have built an extensive legislative scaffolding around the same core idea: the federal government has been writing checks before confirming who deserves them. The House Rules Committee heard the measure on June 8, alongside three other bills targeting improper payments, and the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee framed it as part of a package of 11 anti-fraud bills moving together. The GAO has estimated that improper payments across the federal government totaled roughly $3 trillion since 2003, with $186 billion in fiscal year 2025 alone. The resolution calls for government-wide fraud detection tools, a pre-payment eligibility verification mandate, and a permanent fraud watchdog structure.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

The Democrats are the party of fraud.<\/p>\n

No one believes Hakeem Jeffries or any other Democrat is coming after the crooks. They are the crooks.<\/p>\n
