As of March 22, 2026, comprehensive searches across web and X yield no new federal OIG grant fraud audits, GAO FY2025 improper payments reports, or major scandals since March 21. State-level Medicaid fraud cases continue, including Ohio indictments of 10 providers and Dr. Oz's escalation of claims against Minnesota, but these do not involve new federal grant-specific revelations. Proactive federal and state measures, such as the March 19 Executive Order on Fraud Task Force and Minnesota's CMS-approved anti-fraud plan, remain in place without updates indicating setbacks.
Early 2026 saw intensified US congressional scrutiny of foreign censorship pressures, with House Judiciary Committee's February report on EU's decade-long campaign against American media, hearings on Europe's threats, and a March 16 letter to Meta's Zuckerberg demanding records preservation on foreign-compelled moderation. Democrats countered with a February 24 hearing alleging Trump administration censorship. Germany's January law enables raids on tech offices without judges, while social media researchers sued Trump admin on March 10 over visa denials framed as censorship.
