Behavioral Health IT Dirty Pipeline Questions Not Asked at Mullin’s Confirmation Hearings, Bipartisan Greenlight
Republished with permission from AbleChild.
Senator Markwayne Mullin is poised to receive bipartisan greenlights at his confirmation hearings to lead the Department of Homeland Security, but the most critical issue will be ignored: the dirty Medicaid pipeline his behavioral‑health IT initiative helped entrench. While his record is being sold as “modernizing” behavioral health and improving coordination, his IT funding scheme has poured federal money and technology into mental‑health and child‑welfare systems without first requiring them to clean up missing drug records, falsified documentation, or fraudulent Medicaid billing.
The billions in fraud and vulnerable Medicaid funds exposed in state systems like Minnesota and California did not happen by accident; they moved through this very kind of pipeline, one that upgrades speed and connectivity without guaranteeing that what flows through it is honest, complete, or safe for children and taxpayers. Yet at his confirmation hearings, no one is expected to ask how his IT program helped hard‑wire this design failure into the system, why he did not demand a simple “no clean records, no new money” rule, or why the nation should now trust him to police fraud and abuse at Homeland Security using data from a pipeline already tied to massive fraud on the ground.
On behalf of children, AbleChild opposes this appointment. Mullin will likely enjoy bipartisan support because both parties like the optics of modernization and data‑sharing, but this modernization rests on a dirty pipeline of uncorrected fraud and missing records, a pipeline that is, in significant part, his creation and his responsibility to fix. Having worked for years on behalf of the public, families, and children in state care, AbleChild feels obligated to put this on the record: moving forward with his confirmation without confronting and repairing the dirty Medicaid pipeline is a serious mistake that both parties will own, and that the public, and their children, will ultimately pay for.

george carlin !!!!
He'll get voted in easily for praising the DC pigs on J6
He can be controlled.
the main started for the electronic fraud.
He also hugged the murderer of Ashli Babbit. Interesting optics given what we saw happen.
Anyone who receives bipartisan support for a position in the Trump Administration, especially one Democrats hate, will be an absolute disaster.
.
Bingo
.
Rubio received bipartisan support. Perhaps he's the exception to the rule.
there was a lot of chatter about Rubio and the choice to be SOS. He has done very well and has yet to sabotage any policy effort. He may also have eyes on the POTUS job in the future. Doing a great job as SOS would improve his bona fides.
He's a snake… Once he sees secures the presidency he sheds his skin.
My guess is that Trump sees it better to have a DHS director he can fire than to have a bad Senator.
I never liked Senator Markwayne Mullin. He praised and hugged the guy who murdered Ashli Babbitt. He, also, reminds me of Dan Crenshaw for some reason.
Could be a way of putting him into the spotlight before…well, who knows WHAT regarding potential revelations.
Sen. Paul WAS getting at that.
NO JUST A GLAZED DOUGHNUT DRIPPING DOWN HIS CHIN !!!!
Leave it to Trump to appoint a guy who supports illegals getting our money. When he goes off the rails, he really goes off.
do you spit or swallow the warm white creamy filling in the mini orange mushroom?

well jan 6 was scary
This guy will probably start arresting Jan 6'ers again
they should be in prison all jan 6ers
WHAT DO YOU GET BEING A MAGA CULTIST????????????
Mullins isn't the brightest, but I've learned not to expect much from Trump's picks.
At least they are better than Bidumb's and Obozo's picks.
Giving up his Senate seat says a lot. He did not have to accept the potential role.
This position has a definite time limit, unless of course, the Whitehouse and congress stays conservative.
Bipartisan generally means he's a Uniparty POS.
Hopefullly once the budget is passed, this guy is fired.
Bipartisan is the biggest warning sign I can imagine. Nothing screams worthless ehcuod of a cabinet pick more than
bioartisanbipartisan approval.He will become confirmed whether we like it or not. DC covers for themselves no matter what. I'm trying to find out why Trump would make him as the pick? I checked his past records about comments made, and he's been more wrong than right, but perhaps he'll be a good DHS…we'll know if he is confirmed.
