Operation Clean House led to the arrest of 491 fugitives hiding in taxpayer-funded public housing. The content criticizes systemic government failures that prioritize housing violent felons over homeless veterans and condemns \"sanctuary\" policies in New York for ignoring ICE detainers, arguing that such negligence jeopardizes public safety and wastes taxpayer resources.
The Department of Housing and Urban Development just identified
and arranged the arrest of nearly 500 fugitives
with outstanding felony warrants
who were living in public housing and receiving housing benefits.
Again, your money.
Those 491 people included sex offenders and drug traffickers,
which, of course, is just mind-boggling.
One of the cities where the fugitives were hanging out was,
of course, New York City, a city
which has been known to squander taxpayer dollars.
So when it's not handing out housing benefits to felons, it's spending
eye watering amounts on homeless people who remain on the streets.
What Donald Trump's out there doing is saying,
what can I stir up and really trying to raise the specter?
Is he going to try to cheat in the election?
Is he going to try to somehow disrupt things
so that Democrats don't vote so that he thinks this is going
to be his best chance to be able to keep Republicans in power
in the House and the Senate and in other races around the country?
I worry about election interference, but I know that right now
our best safeguard against election interference is go vote.
491 wanted fugitives just got arrested murder
rape crimes against children and and where were
they hiding caves mountains a secret bunker
in argentina somewhere no public housing paid for
by you congratulations america you have been running a bed
and breakfast for america's most
wanted and and nobody even left you
a five-star review they hid from the government guys by living
off of the government this is like robbing a bank
and then asking the bank to cover your rent and
And the banks said yes, meanwhile veterans are sleeping in their cars.
But sure, priorities guys,
President Donald J. Trump gave the green light, HUD Secretary
Scott Turner and the U.S. Marshals went knocking,
Operation Clean House, New York, Chicago,
Los Angeles, Philadelphia, and we can't forget about Minneapolis.
Blue cities guys, every single one of them, gasp.
Who could have seen that coming, besides literally everyone.
But hold on guys, it gets even dumber than that somehow.
In New York, Governor Kathy Hochul refused 16,000 ICE detainers,
tied to 52,000 crimes,
homicides, kidnappings, assaults,
but then she looked into a camera and said, New York
is no sanctuary for violent criminals.
Sure Kathy, and my dog does my taxes.
Over in New York City,
Mayor Zohra Mamdani promised to free everything. Turns out the
fugitives got the memo first.
And Senator Elizabeth Warren is on TV warning that Trump
will rig the midterms. The same party that told us
that elections were unriggable. You guys remember
that, right? Five minutes ago? Yeah, they don't.
So here's a question, guys. If you hid one fugitive,
you'd be in handcuffs before dinner.
So why does a governor get a pass on 16,000? Well, today we
got the receipts, all of them,
everything that the networks are too busy covering celebrity divorces
to mention. Now, of course, if you're new here,
guys, go ahead and hit subscribe. We are cheaper
than public housing, and we've never harbored a single fugitive.
Proud to say. This is more than
some governors can even say.
Now, if this video lights you up by the end, hit the like button on
the way out. One click, cheaper than rent.
So check this out. I want to go ahead and slow down
just for a second and kind of really, I want to really sit with this.
These weren't jaywalkers,
guys. These were people with active warrants, cops in multiple states.
They were looking for them.
So where do you hide when the whole government's looking for you?
Well, apparently you hide inside
the government. So here's how public housing works.
You fill out paperwork, you get approved,
then HUD, a federal agency, helps cover your rent.
Every month. Like clockwork. So picture
this, right? You got a guy wanted for a violent felony,
opens his mailbox, bills? No. Help with
rent. Yes. From Uncle Sam.
The same Uncle Sam who wants him arrested. This is not a hideout,
guys. This is more like a subscription service.
Oh, and who funds it? You do. Every time you buy
groceries every time you fill up your tank, every time, every paycheck.
Now, you weren't just paying
for public housing. You were paying for rent
for people running from the law. Oh, and nobody
checked. Yeah, until now. How many arrests have you made?
Well, good morning, Stuart. Great to be
with you. There was almost 500 arrests made in Operation Clean House.
This is a key initiative
partnered with the White House Task Force to eliminate fraud.
You know, the president promised
that he would restore once great cities in America.
And so this is promises made, promises kept.
Five hundred, almost five hundred criminal fugitive fraudsters
in 12 different cities around our country.
They can no longer live in HUD-funded, taxpayer-funded housing.
Public housing is safe housing, Stuart.
And this will no longer be a haven for criminal activity.
Now, you're not arresting illegal migrants.
You're arresting criminals living in U.S. government-assisted housing.
What do you do with them?
You're not going to deport them because they're not illegal aliens.
So what do you do with them?
So, yes, sir.
So our Office of Inspector General from HUD has done a tremendous job
partnering with the U.S. Marshal Service
and also local and state law enforcement.
You know, we had to go after these criminals.
We will continue to investigate and go on after criminal activity.
You know, they have been arrested.
And you know what? I'll leave it up to the professionals
and law enforcement to do what they do
to restore law and order and to bring these criminals to justice.
But you take them off to prison, right?
They're criminals living in this house.
Yes, sir.
You take them away.
Yes, sir.
Okay.
Now, if fugitives could live on your tax dollars
for years without anybody noticing,
what else is your money paying for that nobody's telling you about?
This is exactly why I write the Ron Yates Report newsletter, guys.
Every issue covers the stuff that the evening news skips.
where your money's going, who's wasting it,
and what it means for your wallet and
your safety and your family.
So think of it as a background check on your own government.
It's the one HUD forgot
to run. Yes, and it's totally free, guys.
I'll leave a link for you in the description
down below. Join today because the next scandal
on your dime is already happening, I promise
you that.
You might as well hear about it first.
Enter Operation Clean House.
HUD's inspector general teamed up with the U.S. Marshals plus
state and local police. President Trump gave the green light. They
They spent months on it in more than a dozen cities.
The result was 491 arrests, guys.
Not one, not 10, 491.
Now HUD Secretary Scott Turner,
he put it about as plainly as you can. The free ride
is over, fellas. HUD housing will not be a hiding spot for predators
and fraudsters living
on our dime. Imagine that, guys,
a government official who's mad that criminals are using
your money. What a time to be alive, right?
But now here's what really bugs me.
Hundreds of accused murderers, rapists, and child predators
were pulled out of taxpayer-funded housing.
This sounds like a pretty big story, doesn't
it?
So where's the wall-to-wall coverage?
The breaking news banners? The panel of nine experts
arguing about it? Picture those mugshots
on the evening news every night for a good week.
You didn't see that, did you? Ask yourself why. Anybody wondering why?
So who were your roommates? Let's read the list.
Murderer. Rape. Sex crimes against children.
Drug trafficking. Weapons charges.
Building explosive devices. Selling guns illegally.
Let that one sink in. Explosive devices in taxpayer housing.
Somewhere a guy was building
a bomb in his kitchen. And the only question HUD ever asked him
was, did you update your
income form? Yeah. Hmm. Priorities.
So the U.S. Marshals didn't find these guys in
some mansion in the Cayman Islands,
they found them down the hallway, next to the laundry room,
borrowing your neighbor's Wi-Fi,
wondering why your download speed is suddenly buffering
needlessly. So imagine that building meeting, right?
First item, parking. Second item,
Gary in 4B is wanted in three different states.
And the rent? Paid. Every month. Never late.
Now honestly, these fugitives had better
payment history than half of America.
You work 40 hours, you pay your rent, you pay their rent as well.
This is not a safety net,
folks. This is more like a hammock.
Now, somebody you know pays rent every single month and gets
zero help. Send them this video.
Tell them that their taxpayer dollars had roommates. Go ahead,
I'll wait for you. So let me go ahead and tell you
who didn't get the keys. Picture a guy,
served his country, okay? Two tours, came home, did everything right.
Tonight, he's sleeping in
the front seat of his pickup truck,
parked behind a Walmart somewhere, engine off to save some gas,
jacket as a blanket he waits on a list fills out
the forms waits again we'll call you they never
call meanwhile a man wanted for murder had a warm bed a fridge
and a rent check with Uncle Sam
signature on it wow right thank you
for your service here's a parking spot public housing
was built for struggling families for seniors
for people with disabilities for the men and women who
wore the uniform not for fugitives that are hiding
from the U.S. Marshals, here's what's really going
to make your blood boil, guys.
Nobody in charge even noticed for years. It took President Trump
and Scott Turner to finally ask, wait a second,
who's actually living here? Americans who are
struggling should be first in line every time.
No exceptions. Now, let's go and play a game,
shall we? It's called Guess the Cities.
Now, where do you think that U.S. Marshals found
these fugitives? You think that they were in rural Wyoming,
small town Tennessee, a quiet
cul-de-sac in Idaho?
No. New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, Philadelphia, Minneapolis, Memphis,
Columbus, Ohio. Gasp. I'm completely stunned, guys.
Truly. I mean, somebody get me a chair.
Oh, wait. Yeah, never mind.
So who could have possibly guessed that cities famous for going
easy on crime had a crime problem?
This is kind of like being shocked that your basement flooded
after you took the roof off. But here's the part
that should really give you hope, guys.
most crime isn't committed by most people it's
a very small group maybe like one percent or less
doing the vast majority of the damage same faces same names over
and over again just troublemakers
just a small select percentage of the population
so you don't need to arrest a whole city you just
need to find the few who keep doing the bad stuff
this is exactly what Operation Clean House did
find them cuff them done crazy idea right
of arrested criminals yeah somebody alert Chicago
All right, guys, buckle up.
This one's a little ugly. Now, according to DHS,
okay, New York refused to honor about 16,000 ICE detainers this year.
President Trump's border czar Tom Homan is firing back
at New York City Mayor Zoran Mamdani as new
numbers expose the extent of New York's resistance
to federal immigration enforcement. Homeland
Security says authorities across New York State
have rejected more than 16,000 ICE detainer
requests involving illegal aliens accused
or convicted of more than 52,000 criminal offenses.
Mamdani is also renewing his calls to try
and abolish ICE after last week's shooting involving
a criminal illegal alien accused of ramming federal vehicles
while trying to escape arrest.
He wants to double down and say he wants ICE out of New York.
Well, I'm going to triple down.
We'll send more resources there. And according to Homeland Security,
those rejected ICE detainers involved illegal aliens
with more than 52,000 criminal charges
and convictions, including 131 homicides,
more than 1,000 sex offenses, and more than 9,500
assaults. Now, quick explainer, a detainer is rather simple, okay?
Somebody is already sitting
in jail. ICE calls and says, hey, hold him for me.
We're coming to get him. New York says, nah,
we're going to go ahead and let him go.
Oh, and the guy just walks out the front door. Now,
those 16,000 people are tied to about 52,000 criminal charges
or convictions. 52,000. That
includes 131 homicides, 132 kidnappings,
thousands of sex offenses and assaults on Americans.
And Kathy Hochul looked at this pile and said, eh, seems okay to me.
Seems fine. But I want you
to stop for a second. Those aren't just numbers, guys.
Every one of those 131 homicides was
somebody's son, somebody's mom,
somebody's husband who didn't come home for dinner. Every kidnapping
was a family staring at a phone at 3am praying it would ring.
Sit with that. Now ask yourself
who New York was protecting because it sure wasn't them.
Now here's where it gets fun.
Governor Kathy Hochul went on camera
and said with a perfectly straight face that if there's
a terrorist, a murderer, or a rapist,
New York will ultimately help them to help remove them.
And calling New York a sanctuary state,
that's a mischaracterization. Alright,
Let's check the receipts.
About 16,000 detainers ignored, 52,000 crimes attached. Her defense?
New York helped arrest about 2,000 people.
2,000 out of 18,000. This is about 11%. Kathy,
in school, 11% is not a passing grade.
It's a phone call to your parents and probably expulsion
for just being too dumb.
A congressman from Texas wasn't buying it either. He said New York lets
dangerous illegals slip out
of jail before ICE can even grab them. Meanwhile, Texas,
has some of the toughest anti-sanctuary laws
in the entire country. And remember guys,
New York politicians spent years bragging about being a sanctuary.
Now it's a mischaracterization.
Which is it? You decide. I think you already have though.
Now let's go ahead and make this
personal. Let's just pretend that your cousin
is wanted by police. He shows up at your door,
you hide him in your spare bedroom.
What happens to you when the cops find out? You're in the back
of a squad car, mugshot, court date,
your name shows up in the local paper, the whole thing,
right? That's the law for you.
So here's my question, right? If hiding one fugitive,
one fugitive gets you in handcuffs,
what's the rule for a governor whose state ignored 16,000
requests to hand people over?
Is there one rule for you and a different rule for Albany? And
honestly, folks, I want to know what Tom Holman thinks about
this. Let's keep going though,
right? So if a released criminal hurt someone,
should that victim's family be able to take the
officials who let them walk to court?
I think it's a fair question. Should qualified immunity
protect a politician who ignored 16,000 warnings?
Should a grand jury take a look? I'm just asking
questions, asking for a friend.
It's funny how they hate it when we do that, right?
Now let's talk about your wallet because New York sure is.
Keeping one criminal in jail or prison
can cost taxpayers $100,000 a year, sometimes more.
$100,000 for one guy per year? For that
price, he should be getting room service and a mint on his pillow.
Now, ICE offers a cheaper
option. A one-way ticket home. Problem solved.
Bill canceled. New York says, no thanks, we'll
keep him. So you pay to lock him up. Then he gets released.
Then he hurts somebody. And then you pay
for the cops, the courts, and the hospital.
You pay twice, maybe even three times. This is not a
candle burning at both ends.
This is the whole candle, the table, and your house. And people
have noticed this. This is why moving trucks keep leaving New York
and California and heading to
Florida and to Texas.
Americans, they don't mind paying taxes for safety.
They mind paying taxes
for this. And they're voting with their wallets right now.
Now, quick civics lesson, folks,
because people mix these two up.
Kathy Hochul runs New York State. Zoran Mamdani runs New York
City. They're two different offices, but it's the same playbook.
So Zoran Mamdani proudly calls
himself a democratic socialist. These are his own words.
He even wants city-run grocery stores,
free buses, the whole shebang, right?
Because if there's one thing that New Yorkers love,
it's waiting in a government line. Ask anybody at the DMV.
Capitalism, the food waits for you.
socialism. You wait for the food.
Now, look south. Congressman Byron Donalds,
running for governor in Florida, he put it plainly.
Florida follows federal law. Florida
works with ICE. Florida backs law enforcement.
And Florida's booming. Meanwhile, New York,
New Jersey, even Illinois, they do the exact opposite,
and then they act shocked when people
leave. Now, here's the funny part.
Every time Kathy Hochul defends this, every time Zoran Mamdani
talks about free stuff.
Republicans, they don't even need to run ads. Kathy Hochul and Zoran
Mamdani, they are the best Republican campaign ad that money can buy.
And now, the comedy portion
of our program. Senator Elizabeth Warren went on MSNBC,
and she said her big worry is that
President Trump will cheat, rig the midterms,
mess things up so that Democrats don't vote.
Hang on a second. Wasn't it five minutes ago
that these same people told us that American
elections cannot be rigged?
That anybody who even asked was a threat to democracy? It's funny how
elections are perfectly safe right up until they might lose one.
But this is a pattern. I want you
to watch that, guys. Going after political enemies?
Them. Raiding people's homes? Them.
Looking the other way on fraud? Them.
Rigging elections? Take a wild guess. It's kind of like
a guy with chocolate all over his face,
pointing at you, yelling, who ate all the cake? Yeah.
Hmm. So here's a simple rule for the rest of your life.
Whatever they accuse you of planning, check what they've already done.
What Donald Trump's out there doing is saying,
what can I stir up and really try to raise the
specter? Is he going to try to cheat in the election?
Is he going to try to somehow disrupt
things so that Democrats don't vote
so that he thinks this is going to be his best chance
to be able to keep Republicans in power in the House
and the Senate and in other races around
the country. I worry about election interference,
but I know that right now our best safeguard
against election interference is go vote.
Now, if we zoom out for a second, you got one
operation in about a dozen cities found 491 fugitives living
on your dime. So what happens
if we do this in, I don't know, all 50 states all year.
491 is not the problem. It's the preview.
Here's what really needs to happen.
One, every time a city or state ignores an ICE detainer,
it loses a chunk of federal money automatically.
Ignore the law, lose the cash. Two, give Tom
Homan and ICE the green light to finish the job.
Three, run Operation Clean House everywhere. Don't
stop at New York. HUD, the US Marshals, every state, every year.
Four, put veterans at the
front of the housing line, not the back,
not the parking lot, the front. And none of this happens
by accident. It happens in November.
It happens because it must happen because 491 is a start,
but 52,000 is the bill. And well, November is the receipt.
Now, folks, let's be honest.
Nobody should have to find out from a YouTube video
that wanted fugitives were living on their
tax dollars. But here we are. So do one thing for me.
Think of the one person who works hard,
pays every bill on time and still
can't get ahead. Send them this video.
