The Department of Justice’s new plan to entice Americans to snitch on alleged fraud for President Donald Trump has hilariously backfired right off the bat.

The DOJ rolled out the Fraud Whistleblower Incentive Program Tuesday, promising an award of $10,000 to $30,000 for information leading to criminal charges. It’s part of a broader initiative led by Vice President JD Vance to crack down on alleged government fraud.

While the administration has been focusing on fraud in welfare and immigration programs, critics quickly pointed the finger back at Trump. Upon announcing the new whistleblower initiative, the administration was bombarded with tips on social media, from people using the opportunity to mockingly accuse the president of fraud.

“So, we’re mass reporting him, right?” a popular anti-Trump X user, who goes by “JoJo From Jerz,” wrote.

“I’d like to turn in Donald Jezebel Trump,” another commented.

“What’s the official address of Mar-a-Lago? I wanna get rich,” a third said, referring to Trump’s Palm Beach estate.

“Won’t he just turn himself in to get the commission? Then pardon himself,” someone else speculated.

“Everyone is going to report the idiot in the White House. I wouldn’t be surprised if they crash the site,” another said, referring to the online portal where Americans can report alleged fraud. “This is going to be entertaining and the jokes write themselves.”

Trump has been accused by critics of enriching himself and his family during his presidency.

The president made more than $2.2 billion last year, according to financial disclosures reviewed by The New York Times. More than half of his earnings, about $1.4 billion, came from his family’s cryptocurrency businesses.

His decision to accept a Boeing 747 jet worth about $400 million from Qatar to use as the new Air Force One has also been scrutinized.

The Trump administration previously denied claims that the president profited from his time in office, saying he has actually lost hundreds of millions of dollars to serve the American people.

Donald Trump and his family have not been criminally charged with fraud. The Independent has reached out to the White House for comment on the new allegations.

Speaking to reporters in the Oval Office Tuesday, Trump said a whistleblower could be awarded one percent of whatever the government recovers in the DOJ’s new initiative.

But The Independent’s White House Correspondent Andrew Feinberg pushed back, mentioning how Americans can get 10 to 25 percent of recovered money through an existing law called the False Claims Act. The 19th-century law allows whistleblowers to sue on behalf of the federal government to recover funds that have been defrauded from federal programs.

When Feinberg asked Trump why someone would choose to go through the new whistleblower portal with the False Claims Act on the books, the president said, “Because it’s a lot of money.”

“At one percent, people will make millions and millions of dollars for turning in what actually is a somewhat routine crime of, you know, of millions of millions,” Trump said. “But we’re talking about we’re talking about billions and actually probably trillions of dollars.”

Throughout the rest of the Oval Office event, Trump snapped at Feinberg for trying to ask questions, telling him to “be careful.” At one point, the president growled “quiet” at Feinberg and asked, “What’s wrong with you? Are you a sick person?”

Feinberg’s response: “Not that I know of, sir.”
