JD Vance announces multi-state fraud task force in wake of Minnesota scandal

Vice President JD Vance announced a new federal task force aimed at tackling fraud across the country on Thursday.

Vance says the Justice Department will feature a new associate attorney general position to address fraud, in addition to the 1,500 subpoenas and 100 indictments the DOJ has already sent out on the issue.

Vance says the administration hopes to announce a nominee to the position "within the next few days."

"This is the person that is going to make sure we stop defrauding the American people," Vance said.
