Long Island had a birth tourism operation in 2020 that had been operating for 3 years. If not for a diligent employee in Smithtown, it would still be going on. Over 100 pregnant women from Turkey came to the U.S. to give birth to babies to ensure the babies received their U.S. citizenship. Medicaid is going bankrupt, and while these mothers were here, they pilfered from it. Medicaid is only for elderly and handicapped Americans. The Story In December 2020, a birth tourism ring was busted on Long Island. Prosecutors on the case revealed that over 100 pregnant women from Turkey came to the U.S. to give birth to babies to ensure they left with U.S. citizenship. Along with ensuring their children had citizenship, the women also took full advantage of the Medicaid system, pilfering millions of taxpayer dollars in the process. An employee in Smithtown helped expose the scheme by pointing to birth certificates where five babies from one household were born at the same time. A probe ensued, uncovering an international fraud scheme. It uncovered the birth tourism scheme on Long Island. Eastern District Acting U.S. Attorney Seth DuCharme stated that “the defendants fraudulently facilitated the births in the United States of approximately 119 Turkish children, and those children now hold birthright U.S. citizenship.” Turkey advertised the scheme with ads noting that “If you believe your baby should be born in the USA and become an American citizen, you are in the right place.” It is illegal to lie to obtain travel visas and fraudulent Medicaid claims for babies and mothers. The women stayed at seven birth houses located across Suffolk County. Prosecutors say these women paid up to $10,000 each for accommodations and free health care provided by U.S. taxpayers. “They are doing it on the backs of taxpayers. They’re milking the Medicaid system,” Suffolk County District Attorney Tim Sini went on to say. Six people were arrested and charged with money laundering in connection with a $2 million Medicaid fraud scheme. The mothers were not charged, and their babies remain citizens while they live in Turkey. Now multiply this by all the many jurisdictions in our fifty states and multiply it by all the countries that engage in birth tourism and possibly Medicaid schemes. It needs to be stopped, and some of these babies need to lose their citizenship. 2020. Turkish anchor baby ring found operating in Long Island, NY — mothers got taxpayer funded healthcare. This is insane: “Prosecutors say more than 100 pregnant women from Turkey came here to give birth, so their children were instantly granted U.S. citizenship.”… https://t.co/mjxyihjeO2 pic.twitter.com/QcWl50rEXd — Western Lensman (@WesternLensman) April 2, 2026 The post Birth Tourism & the Women Who Plundered Medicaid appeared first on www.independentsentinel.com.

Massachusetts lawmakers have a shiny new bill to get people out of their cars. Senate Bill S.2246, under the banner of reducing emissions and vehicle miles traveled (VMT), added tyrannical rules to its state’s climate plan. As part of the plan, the department of transportation will track residents’ mileage and impose fines for excessive driving. It has its critics, such as the Massachusetts Fiscal Alliance, over the impact it will have on residents’ daily lives.’ However, the residents will let any tyrannical bill pass under the guise of climate change. It would force the majority of residents to slash the miles they drive, claiming they have to do it to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. It orders the Massachusetts Department of Transportation (MassDOT) to set binding goals for reducing statewide vehicle miles traveled (VMT). The bill will create a new government council tasked with pushing people onto public transit, one way or another. No mileage limit is listed yet, but it’s coming. The globalists ruling Massachusetts want you out of your car and on to dangerous and dirty public transportation, and, eventually, into 15-minute cities. The Massachusetts politicians love it, and it has been sent from the State House to the Senate Ways and Means Committee.

The globalist Irish government sent in the military to a farmers’ protest/blockade. If you have been to Ireland, you know it’s mostly farms, everywhere you look. Since they are running out of fuel and can’t afford what is available, the farmers staged a protest. The government sent in the military, dragging the farmers off to jail. That backfired. The crowds exploded in size. A huge part of the country is running out of fuel. Trucks and tractors continued to block access to vital fuel depots and a major port, and vehicles clogging traffic led to closures of part of the main highway around Dublin, the capital, as well as sections of other major roadways. Irish police Commissioner Justin Kelly said it wasn’t a peaceful protest since they were blockading vital resources. The Gardai violently dragged them off. The War As a Problem The globalists blame the war, and that is the immediate cause, but the core problem is their environmental regulations and the price of fuel. The government finally reopened the refinery. Ireland has called in the army to deal with farmers and truckers who have blocked major roads in protest at sky-high fuel prices. Helen McEntee, the defense minister, said the use of soldiers to support the police was “not the norm,” but claimed that escalating disruption had now “crossed into criminal behavior.” The army will deploy four heavy-lift recovery trucks to help the police remove vehicles involved in blockades, which have been in place for three days. And Herein Lies the Core Problem The government last month cut fuel duty by 20 cents on a litre of diesel and by 15 cents for petrol until the end of May, but protesters are demanding more. Excise and carbon taxes comprise more than half the price of Irish fuel. “We want the carbon tax to be gone, and we need the fuel to be capped at a realistic price,” Mr Boyd said.

President Trump announced a blockade of the Strait of Hormuz today on Truth Social after Iran refused to stop developing enriched uranium. Previously, the U.S. offered to give them free uranium for peaceful purposes. President Trump also threatened to stop any vessels that had paid a toll to Iran. The president said the tolls and the threat of mines constitute extortion and will not be allowed. The U.S. will begin detecting and destroying mines, and if anyone fires on the ships, they will be “blown to Hell.” The blockade will include other nations. He said the meeting went well, with agreement on key points, except for nuclear. Iran has previously said that it will not be dictated to on nuclear issues because it is a sovereign nation. Yeah, but they’re crazy. The President’ Truth Social Post “So, there you have it, the meeting went well, most points were agreed to, but the only point that really mattered, NUCLEAR, was not. Effective immediately, the United States Navy, the Finest in the World, will begin the process of BLOCKADING any and all Ships trying to enter, or leave, the Strait of Hormuz. “At some point, we will reach an “ALL BEING ALLOWED TO GO IN, ALL BEING ALLOWED TO GO OUT” basis, but Iran has not allowed that to happen by merely saying, “There may be a mine out there somewhere,” that nobody knows about but them. THIS IS WORLD EXTORTION, and Leaders of Countries, especially the United States of America, will never be extorted. “I have also instructed our Navy to seek and interdict every vessel in International Waters that has paid a toll to Iran. No one who pays an illegal toll will have safe passage on the high seas. We will also begin destroying the mines the Iranians laid in the Straits. Any Iranian who fires at us, or at peaceful vessels, will be BLOWN TO HELL! “Iran knows, better than anyone, how to END this situation which has already devastated their Country. Their Navy is gone, their Air Force is gone, their Anti Aircraft and Radar are useless, Khomeini [Khamenei], and most of their “Leaders,” are dead, all because of their Nuclear ambition. The Blockade will begin shortly. Other Countries will be involved with this Blockade. Iran will not be allowed to profit off this Illegal Act of EXTORTION. They want money and, more importantly, they want Nuclear. Additionally and, at an appropriate moment, we are fully “LOCKED AND LOADED,” and our Military will finish up the little that is left of Iran! President DONALD J. TRUMP” The post President Trump Announced a Blockade of the Strait appeared first on www.independentsentinel.com.

In this clip, unhinged Democrat strategist James Carville suggested that in November, he wants to watch President Donald Trump suffer and die. Carville can avoid being seen as threatening Trump’s life by mentioning November, suggesting the midterms. However, he knows the deranged among us will take it as encouragement to torture and murder President Donald Trump. Carville doesn’t just want an assassination. He wants him tortured. Remember how Sarah Palin was pilloried for her bullseye on her election campaign? Bullseyes were commonly used in political ads at the time. Somehow, these insane rants are okay. The media’s fine with it. He wants to watch Trump being tortured. Why is this okay? It’s not.pic.twitter.com/yFnDonqMGY https://t.co/unUw7mGdSO — Mike Lee (@BasedMikeLee) April 11, 2026 Before this rant, Carville fantasized about the Trump family losing all their money. In another rant, he pondered Democrats imprisoning Donald Trump or sending him to The Hague. He wanted Trump to be treated like a Nazi for war crimes. That would solidify the Democrat lie that Republicans are Nazis, a term that better suits them. At the same time, the Pope is meeting with a rabid anti-Republican operative for the Democrat Party. The Anti-War Pope Meets with an Operative of the Left Pope Leo XIV met with a longtime Democrat/Obama/Hillary Clinton operative, David Axelrod, a day after reports emerged that Pentagon officials might have harshly criticized Pope Leo’s comments about war always being wrong. Elbridge Colby allegedly threatened him via his Nuncio,  Cardinal Pierre. Snopes found no evidence of threatening or berating the Pope. Snopes didn’t bother to mention that the Holy See strongly denied the rumors (see below). The information stemmed from gossip, possibly from prelates, and spread in an X post by Shawn Ryan. There were many people present for the meeting with Cardinal Pierre, now retired, and that’s not Elbridge’s style. Last month, Axelrod shared some pointed words from the pontiff encouraging journalists to “show the sufferings that war always brings to the people; to show the face of war and to relate it through the eyes of the victims so as not to transform it into a video game.” Secretary Hegseth was promoting the war’s successes with videos, including spliced footage from movies and a video game. It was an attempt to combat media lies that Trump lost the war. War should always be avoided, and it is horrible. It’s understandable that a religious person would be opposed. However, the meeting with Axelrod raised eyebrows. Axelrod’s whole reason for existing is to defeat and destroy Republicans. Under Secretary of War for Policy Elbridge Colby @USWPColby had a substantive, respectful, and professional meeting with Cardinal Pierre, the then-Papal Nuncio, and his team on January 22, 2026. During the cordial meeting, they discussed a range of topics, including issues of… pic.twitter.com/McI0sB2wKC — DOW Rapid Response (@DOWResponse) April 9, 2026 The post One Democrat’s Cagey Threat on Trump’s Life appeared first on www.independentsentinel.com.
