Fraud is the New Welfare Queen

By Sam Steen

Voter fraud. Immigration fraud. Financial fraud. Turn on any screen, and the conservative obsession with "fraud" is inescapable. Now in syndication, Sam Steen’s analysis exposes how "fraud" has become the modern reincarnation of the racist "Welfare Queen" myth spawned by Reagan. Steen breaks down how the right uses this catchall boogeyman to manufacture consent for militant ICE raids, gut the social safety net, and push voter suppression like the SAVE Act. The real fraud is neither the ballot box nor the border, but the narrative itself.
