California governor files complaint against Medicare head who alleged fraud by members of Armenian community
A new front in the battle between the California governor, Gavin Newsom, and the Trump administration has opened over a video in which the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) administrator, Mehmet Oz, visits Los Angeles and alleges members of its Armenian community orchestrated large-scale healthcare fraud.
The days-long public scuffle on social media escalated on Thursday evening, when Newsom announced his office was filing a civil rights complaint with the US Department of Health and Human Services accusing Oz of discrimination.
