Over HALF of Medicare in Minnesota is fraudulent. OVER HALF.

You are 16,000% wrong. For a prosecutor, a "red flag" isn't just one thing, but rather
indicators of potential criminal activity, weak cases, or unethical behavior

So Thompson said this: "When I look at the claims data and the providers, I see more red flags than I see legitimate providers."...

Now anyone who has done this knows that a red flag can disappear quickly, but some of them you work on for a month or more and then they disappear. He's saying he's looking at claims data and providers, but if he had established that half weren't legitimate providers, he wouldn't be talking red flags. He'd be saying half of the claims he's looking at are from known illegitimate providers - and he isn't saying that, he's talking red flags. That means he's just looked at a printout and guessed that they are illegitimate providers. (Some probably are.) Now why would he do that? He's a political animal of course.

Well, he's got 250 million from verdicts, and charged another 11 million, so he's got 8.74 billion more to go to get to 9 billion. Let's see what happens.
