$200 BILLION dollars. And maybe they will form a committee to tell another committee that a new committee needs formed to study why or how this happened.

Mean while, a family member that went on unemployment during covid because they were 'furloughed.' Actually got a nastygram from the unemployment commerce division saying they did an audit and he owes 3 dollars.

He checked off the box that he agrees with this and sent a $3 dollar check.

































AND THEY CASHED IT.

As Julius Levinson said in (recently re-watched Independence Day).. You don't actually think they spend 20 thousand on a hammer, 30 thousand on a toilet seat, do you?

And this my friends is what you get for getting up before dawn, going to work all day and paying taxes …

And even when the boogie man Covid was scaring most people into staying home doing nothing for over a year.

The US Attorneys offices nation wide will selectively pick a few people to prosecute as examples to everybody else. The case will fit a certain narrative that they’re trying to promote.

They did this with FEMA fraud cases following Katrina. They also did it after the 2008 real estate collapse.

2021 USA - our rulers are thieves, criminals and whores; our heroes are communists, atheists, satanists and gangsters.

Things are going to be interesting in 2101 USA.

The number of false claims just against our small business has been crazy. Most recently, we had a claim filed against us for an employee that hadn't worked for us in over two years. The claim was filed with a false address. Since we are friends with that person, we let them know. We both tried to notify our state unemployment office, but I don't have to tell you how impossible that is right now. Unsure if the state paid it or not, but we are sure they did.

I think it was Morning Futures on Fox News repeorted several weeks ago that of the trillions spent for COVID19 related stimulus/aid nearly $500 billion has been siphoned off by fraudsters both domestic and foreign.

They were an absolute joke since the beginning of covid even before. There were people answering their phones as Shaniqua with an attitude with kids screaming in the background and rap music playing.

Then if you weren't disgusted enough, you got Tammy white trash that was dumber than a box of rocks and very unprofessional.

Most of these were appointment calls days weeks away. I know people that had to go to local county commissioners.

You are correct there was Nigerian scammer fraud--probably Chy Nah & Russia bots as well-- and they used any John Doe's identity and were obviously approved when regular Joe applying legally was being railroaded and delayed.

The audit, generating the letter, cashing the $3 check - probably cost the taxpayers hundreds of dollars - for their original mistake of sending too much money.

Do the people (used loosely where Dems are concerned) Biden appoints to these committees get paid for being on them?
