Nick Shirley Exposes California’s Billion Dollar Fraud Crisis, 17 March 2026

You do realize I’m trying to help America eliminate fraud and waste right? No need to try and make me look like the bad guy for exposing fraud.

People are over it. Start working for the people and not against them.

Disgusting act by them to do this the more I think about it… really is just vile and disgusting. A small percentage of their base will see this and then think I’m “evil” and eventually want to kill me because of propaganda created from the governor of Californias office.

Incredible journalism and incredible timing. Something tells me arrests are indeed coming in California soon…

This is a perfect example of state run propaganda, ladies and gentlemen.

Here, you have an official Press Office for the Governor of the largest state in our Union pushing a defamation campaign against an independent journalist.

What terrible thing did that journalist do? Oh, he exposed hundreds of millions of dollars in welfare fraud in an all but fully Democrat run state.

California is an actual fully Democrat run state, so they are absolutely terrified of independent journalists that aren’t on their side coming in and spoiling all of their fun.

I mean, what if someone actually looks into all of the NGO fraud in California… like where did that $37 billion go that ole Gavin threw at homelessness since 2019 only for homelessness in his state to increase by about 24%?

Seems like a lot of money for some pretty terrible results…

I’m just asking questions guys.

Actually, I’m not.

We are watching a live and self reported coverup by Gavin Newsom’s office unfold in real time, for why else would you be against a journalist exposing fraud?

The Governor’s office should have nothing to worry about from a bit of investigation, right?

Sue him personally and the State of California for defamation. You are doing a legitimate journalistic investigation and he appears to be characterizing you as a pedophile -- about the worst thing you can call someone. And while the sitting Governor. SUE HIM.

Thinking about it

This guy is a classic grass roots patriot. If this were 1776, he would be signing the Declaration. He should be lauded by every American except the fraudsters, which, of course, is why Democrats loathe him.

What an ironic world.

“Rules for thee but not for me”

The double standard is truly amazing for people to see. It reveals so much about who Newsom is and who he surrounds himself with.

This is real journalism.

This is how you hold government accountable.

There are too many gossips posing as reporters in Washington who simply recycle the attacks that their colleagues make on people they don’t like.

Recycle. Repeat. Retweet.

So many reporters today are just too lazy to find a scoop or to expose a real problem. They just attack people with opinions.

The media have become personality driven not policy driven.

Thank God there are young reporters like Nick exposing the waste.

But there are still too many DC reporters who are just a waste - frauds who abuse the label of journalist.
