In Episode 151, Chuck Ellis and Jon Fetherston (The Maine Wire) expose rampant MaineCare fraud: empty ”zombie” offices billing millions, 100% misbilling in autism programs, and Governor Mills' alleged protection of nonprofit allies. From Portland drug deals to Lewiston decay, taxpayer theft is hurting real Mainers. Plus: Nirav Shah's ”free” promises, COVID fallout, and why Republicans lost a winnable special election. If fraud isn't stopped before 2026, it may never be. Listen now. Follow The Maine Wire for videos of the investigations.
