That’s how corrupt, spoiled and entitled they are.

As NPR put it, “critics say the California money recovery effort remains feeble, with too few people held to account, and that the real fraud figure is likely far higher.”

“If we discover any federal laws were violated, we will make arrests” — U.S. Attorney Bill Essayli

Now, the feds have launched a criminal investigation into this fraud. “Taxpayers deserve answers for where and how their hard-earned money has been spent. If state and local officials cannot provide proper oversight and accountability, we will do it for them. If we discover any federal laws were violated, we will make arrests,” said U.S. Attorney Bill Essayli.

THAT is more like it!!!!!

This is what I voted for.

[metmom]

They do.

Entitlement mentality runs deep in leftist la-la-land.

Imagine this on a nation-wide scale and that’s what you’d get with a (God Forbid) Newsom Presidency.

He, and his hapless DA, Bonta, are fighting tooth and nail to keep the high speed rail project and other pet “carbon neutral” projects that cost us dearly in the “Beholden State.”

I hope Musk and his minions come in here, clean house - and prosecute those who have been ripping us off for years with their expensive and ludicrous lefty fantasies.

[bobbo666]

CaCaLand corrupted the 2020 election for the express purpose of getting Vax/climate $$ from BeijingBiden. That was the deal. Let cities burn by Antifa/BLM thugs so long as the taxpayers in the other 49 states pick up the tab.

And, you did.
