Vice President JD Vance has just announced that the Trump administration is launching a new federal task force aimed at cracking down on widespread Somali-led fraud targeting American taxpayers.
On Thursday, Vance said the Department of Justice (DOJ) will create a new associate attorney general position dedicated specifically to fraud enforcement.
The effort is building on what Vance described as an already aggressive response by federal authorities.
According to Vance, the DOJ has issued roughly 1,500 subpoenas and brought more than 100 indictments tied to fraud investigations so far.
