Trump, Vance launch $25 million fraud whistleblower incentive program

President Trump and Vice President JD Vance announced a $25 million Fraud Whistleblower Incentive Program on Tuesday, offering tipsters up to $30,000 for information leading to fraud convictions or significant federal enforcement actions. Trump said successful whistleblowers could receive a 1% commission on recovered funds and that he would personally arbitrate disputes over awards. Trump presented a $10,000 check to independent journalist Nick Shirley for exposing alleged fraud in Minnesota.
