 The Breaking911 post you linked (from March 17, 2026) shares a clip and highlights a viral investigation by 23-year-old YouTuber Nick Shirley (

@nickshirleyy

). He released a roughly 40-minute video exposing what he claims is over $170 million in alleged fraud involving Medi-Cal (California's Medicaid program), primarily through fake or "ghost" daycare centers and hospice providers.Key Claims from Shirley's Video (as shared and discussed)

• He and his team visited multiple listed addresses in places like Los Angeles and San Diego.
• Many appeared abandoned, rundown, or completely empty (e.g., broken windows, no children or patients present, locked doors).
• Despite this, the facilities were allegedly billing taxpayers millions for nonexistent services — some individual locations reportedly billed tens of millions.
• Fraudsters (in his view) live in luxury while defrauding the system.
• He positions this as even bigger than his previous Minnesota daycare fraud investigation (late 2025), which went extremely viral and helped trigger federal scrutiny and funding pauses there.

The Breaking911 post received strong engagement: over 275K views, thousands of likes/reposts, and replies praising Shirley as doing more real journalism than mainstream outlets or politicians. Common themes in replies:

• Criticism of California officials (especially Gov. Gavin Newsom, often mocked as "Newscum").
• Calls to protect Shirley and end the fraud.
• Some frustration that the Trump administration hasn't acted decisively on these issues.

Broader Context

• Shirley's Minnesota video (late 2025) alleged similar "ghost" daycare schemes (often tied to immigrant communities), claiming around $100–110M in fraud. It exploded online, drew congressional attention (e.g., Rep. Kevin Kiley questioned witnesses about it), and contributed to probes/funding freezes — though some outlets (like Snopes, NPR, CNN) noted his claims faced scrutiny, partial debunking, or lacked full substantiation at the time.
• His California follow-up (March 2026) quickly hit millions of views across X and YouTube. It sparked similar reactions: praise from conservative voices (e.g., Dinesh D'Souza, Monica Crowley), media appearances, and backlash/mockery from Newsom's office (they posted trolling AI images).
• Hospice fraud in California (especially LA area) has been flagged by state auditors and CBS investigations in prior years — so the underlying issue isn't new, but Shirley's on-the-ground, confrontational style amplified it dramatically.

No major official confirmation or arrests tied directly to this specific $170M figure have been widely reported yet (as of mid-March 2026), but it's fueling intense online debate about government waste, oversight failures, and taxpayer money.If you'd like me to dig into his full YouTube video, check for updates, or look at specific replies/images from the thread, let me know!
