AUSTIN, TEXAS: Podcast host 'The Joe Rogan Experience' star Joe Rogan tore into Democrats for what he described as refusing to confront massive fraud simply because President Donald Trump is pursuing the issue, urging lawmakers to “forget who’s the president” and unite around protecting taxpayers.

Rogan was in conversation with RFK Jr. who exposed the staggering amount of tax dollars lost to healthcare fraud each year on the podcast. 



RFK Jr alleges 'hundreds of billions' lost

During a fiery segment on 'The Joe Rogan Experience', Rogan argued that combating fraud particularly involving taxpayer-funded programs should transcend party lines.

“Hundreds of billions of dollars of fraud is not good for any of us, the whole country,” Rogan said. “So, we should all be together on this one thing.”

He expressed frustration that partisan loyalty appears to be overriding what he sees as common-sense priorities.

“Like, this is terrible. This is stealing from YOUR tax money, all of our tax money, us American citizens, we should all be united on stopping any kind of fraud,” he continued. “Forget about who…who’s the president!”

Rogan also dismissed concerns about which political figure would get credit for tackling the problem.

“Who’s going to get responsibility for it? Who’s going to get the accolades? Like, who cares?! Stop fraud!”

Joe Rogan appeals to political middle

Beyond the issue, Rogan also criticized the Democrats for failing to reconnect with voters who feel alienated.

“There has to be some sort of an appeal to people in the middle that left when things went crazy,” he said.

“Just let us know you’re not crazy anymore, let us know you’ve abandoned a lot of this crazy stuff.”

He added that certain issues such as preventing criminals from exploiting public benefits should not be politically divisive.

“You shouldn’t have criminals from other countries living here just stealing money from Medicaid,” Rogan said. “That seems like that should be a bipartisan issue in a rational society.”



Kennedy's claims stun Rogan

During the same conversation, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. laid out detailed allegations about fraud within federal healthcare programs.

“We lose just in Medicaid and Medicare, a hundred billion dollars a year,” Kennedy said, describing it as “shocking blatant fraud where it’s become industrialized.”

 He claimed foreign actors were involved, stating, “There are foreign nations like Russia and also Cuba has this operation in Florida where they open up these P.O. boxes for durable medical equipment.”

Kennedy alleged, “They just claim to be shipping them to people,” after obtaining patient ID numbers, adding at one point that “the whole thing is apparently run by the Cuban government.”
