The Democratic Party has funneled billions of dollars of federal welfare fraud into one of its top voting groups in an effort to turn a solid Republican state purple, a shocking new report claimed.
And the Left’s target hits especially close to home for the Trump administration.
This week, investigative reporter Luke Rosiak of The Daily Wire kicked off a new series on Medicaid fraud centered in the Somali community… but not in any deep-blue state.
Instead, this time in deep red Ohio.
Home health care spending has roughly doubled in the Buckeye state since 2018, from about $500 million to $1 billion in 2024.
That created deep questions for a journalist like Rosiak. So, he dug through an enormous pile of data about federal grants published by the Department of Government Efficiency in February, before DOGE wound down operations.
What he found mirrored the welfare fraud rampant in Minneapolis’ Somali community… but this time, instead of daycare, foreigner-owned companies scraped millions off the federal dole by posing as home health care companies.
He says all the welfare recipients really did in exchange for millions of dollars was spend the day with their relatives and sometimes do their hair!
Like in Minnesota, Rosiak and Parker Thayer of the Capital Research Center found buildings full of phony offices with no one home.
They investigated multiple properties registered to the same alleged slumlords, who live in New Jersey but own several buildings in Columbus through their Cordoba Real Estate Group LLC.
The full extent of the Democrat ripoff could end up mind-boggling.
In Columbus, “only 6,273 people 75 or older are on Medicaid,” but seven buildings, all owned by the same company, house 288 “home health care” LLCs that have cost $250 million in Medicaid payments over just six years, reported Rosiak. “At 2700 East Dublin Road, there are 80 companies that collectively billed at least $73 million to Medicaid and received $23 million from the state of Ohio. Eleven billed more than $1 million.”
Another Cordoba-owned building at 6161 Busch Boulevard provides headquarters for 94 “home health care” companies that have cost taxpayers $66 million.
“Where is the money?” asked Walter Curt of Restoration News and The Conservative Caucus, when he visited one of the same locations Rosiak visited. “We have yet to find anything at all.”
Yet the state has spent years stuffing bank accounts with millions of your tax dollars.
2999 Granville Road Columbus Ohio, one of the locations from the new Daily Wire Medicaid fraud story.
Sounded familiar to me, because it was.
It’s the same location from my SERC Reporting.

Medina Home Healthcare, led by Nirmala Adhikari, pulled in a $22 million dollars, including $1 million in a single month (December 2023) under the Biden-Harris administration. But Adhikari, who majored in feminism and social justice at the University of California-Santa Cruz, reportedly lives in India.
“Nearly every owner of home health care companies in Columbus appears to be foreign,” and “every associate in public records also has a foreign name, and all their business transactions are conducted by other foreigners,” pointed out conservative firebrand Ann Coulter.
The owners have taken absolutely astounding steps to avoid public scrutiny.
In some cases, it’s literally impossible to even get inside their “business offices.”
Tweet your favorite Columbus, Ohio Medicaid mill. These 7 buildings are owned by one New Jersey-based landlord, mostly on one street. Collectively they are desolate inside but house 288 Medicaid LLCs that billed a quarter billion dollars of taxpayer money. pic.twitter.com/uYrfJBEKM5

As Rosiak caught on video, JLL Home Healthcare LLC—located at another Cordoba-owned building at 5900 Roche Drive—doesn’t even have a doorknob.
But, like Minneapolis’ “Quality Learing Center,” this business (incorporated by Kofi Adoma) has a nonsensical sign: “Steaming to assist.”
It’s easy to understand why these “health care suppliers” don’t want anyone prying into their actions.
One company is owned by a couple with “repeated fraud, violence, and theft convictions,” claimed Rosiak. A $7 million home health LLC is owned by an accountant who ripped off public funds and who opened up shop with help from a money launderer’s family.
Some of the reportedly owners seem to have long criminal histories, including convictions for violence and fraud.
But he reveals that, even when the employees actually do their job, they aren’t doing much.

National Home Health Care Services LLC advertises that it receives Medicaid money to let people offer “companionship & conversation” and “light housekeeping,” mostly to their relatives.
Another, Omega Home Health Care Services, got $11 million over seven years by offering “hair care,” “home making,” and “bed making.”
Most dangerously, the owner’s real service may be trying to flip the state’s political delegation.
Omega is owned by Mohamud A. Jama, who has run for state representative twice and state senate once, always as a Democrat.
As The Horn told you, investigators also appear to have uncovered similar, large-scale welfare grift in Democrat-controlled Maine and Minnesota.
The latest blue state to come under review is New York, run by ultra-liberal Democratic Gov. Kathy Hochul and home to New York City’s Islamic socialist mayor, Zohran Mamdani.
“New York has 171 home health aides per 1,000 seniors. The U.S. average is 68,” noticed Rep. David Schweickert, R- Ariz. He charges programs like New York’s Consumer Directed Personal Assistance Program (CDAP) with committing “Medicaid fraud on a massive scale, and taxpayers are being forced to fund it.”
The Arizona Republican says gaming Medicaid’s loose regulations is nationwide problem—and has the solution. His Combating Deceptive Practices in Assistance Programs Act of 2026 would require that federal Medicaid funds only go to help people “unable to perform 3 or more activities of daily living,” such as dressing, feeding themselves, bathing, or going to the restroom independently.
Altogether, the shifty Democratic wealth transfer, from hardworking Americans to welfare-sucking foreigners, has cost taxpayers massively.
Nick Shirley, the conservative muckraker who blew the lid off similarly dodgy actions at Somali-run daycares in Minneapolis, has estimated fraud costs the state of Minnesota $80 billion to $100 billion.”
As The Horn has reported, total U.S. taxpayer fraud since 2020 has run into trillions of dollars and represents about 10 percent of all federal spending.
What’s unique about the Ohio operation is the fact that it’s a solid red state.
Republicans have held every statewide office since (although GOP gubernatorial hopeful Vivek Ramaswamy is currently polling in the danger zone against Democrat Amy Acton).
Taxing Republican voters, to give their money to Democrats, in order to defeat candidates backed by Republican voters? The powers that be are forcing Ohio Republicans to vote for their own political displacement.
Why aren’t Ohio Republican leaders doing anything about it? They’ve admitted why… and the answer will depress you.

Ohio’s Republican governor, Mike DeWine, has admitted he knew about daycare fraud for years but did nothing.
DeWine, who praised the Haitian illegals accused of chowing down pets in the city of Springfield, said through his spokesman that Somali daycare fraud is “unfortunately the cost of doing business.”
Thanks to Trump administration action, we know that the cost to taxpayers is immense.
Mike DeWine's spokesperson Dan Tierney, responded to the fraud in Ohio.

The man who oversees the Medicaid program for President Trump, Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services Administrator Dr. Mehmet Oz, estimates there is $100 billion in Medicare fraud nationwide.
How is that money being used to transform politics?
Which party’s voters pay the bill?
Which party’s voters benefit?
To make matters worse, there’s no financial limit to Medicaid fraud: Medicaid costs grow with every new “patient” on the rolls. And everyone in the transaction gets a cut.
“There might be more home health care fraud in Medicaid nationwide than there are legitimate in-home services,” noted one commentator.
But the administration may have a way of turning things around immediately, without waiting for new legislation… and the man taking the lead has a very vested interest in the outcome.
New York has 171 home health aides per 1,000 seniors. The U.S. average is 68.
That is not normal. That is Medicaid fraud on a massive scale, and taxpayers are being forced to fund it. My bill would fix that. https://t.co/NPIMh170vD pic.twitter.com/dsfHvCwBEE

Vice President J.D. Vance is investigating the reported fraud in his home state, which sent him to the U.S. Senate a few short years before President Donald Trump tapped him as his vice president.
Vance’s smashing victory may be one of the reasons Democrats are targeting Ohio in the first place.
But if records are any indicator, the fraudsters don’t stand a chance against Vance.
The Trump adminstration’s anti-fraud task force, led by Vance, has already suspended dozens of home “hospices” in California, which Gavin Newsom knew about and ignored for years.
California Democrats responded by introducing a bill to criminalize investigative journalism of the sort that exposed their money-shuffling scams.
And Ohio’s Medicaid program paying foreigners to babysit their relatives is all thanks to a federal Medicaid waiver.
President Donald Trump can rescind that order at once.
The Democrats may want you to finance their political expansion in the former swing state of Ohio.
The Trump administration should shut it down.
