If you are struggling to make ends meet, so much so you rely on government assistance, there should not be extra funds for you to wire out of the country. And if you do have extra funds, “you're either getting too much or you're part of” a “conspiracy.”

Sec. Scott Bessent says that the federal government will be banning people from wiring money outside the country if they rely on government assistance. He claims this has become a priority after Somali fraudsters were caught doing just that.

According to Bessent, the government's “generosity has been taken advantage of.” Those funds were never meant to fund foreign nationals, and there are tons more Americans, including veterans and single mothers, who would benefit from those funds. It’s about time someone in power acknowledged this problem because it needed to end yesterday.

According to Bessent, "From now on, anyone who wires money out from one of these money service businesses has to check a box saying whether they are on public assistance." He added, "And if you are on public assistance, we are going to start pushing that you cannot wire money out of the country."

This should not be controversial, and it’s unclear why these safety measures were not put in place to begin with. For far too long, officials have made it too easy for fraudsters to take advantage of the system. While it’s great that something is being done about it now, this should have never happened in the first place.

Is this still what you voted for? Because I certainly think it is. In the pursuit of making America great again, welfare fraud will once again become illegal. Unclear why it took officials this long to even acknowledge the problem, but at least someone is.
