🚨 JUST IN: Massachusetts Gov. Maura Healey (D)'s former aide LaMar Cook, already facing cocaine trafficking and gun charges, has been ARRESTED by federal prosecutors for SNAP FRAUD

PARTY OF FRAUD.

He's also accused of wrongly taking $30K in VACATION time, and must pay it back!

Earlier this year, he was caught using his taxpayer-funded EBT card at supermarkets right outside Walt Disney World.

Prosecutors say he claimed ZERO income and less than $100 in the bank to collect $500 a month in food stamps. Records reportedly showed he actually had thousands in the bank, plus about $12,000 in lottery payments

Healey hired him in 2023 as deputy director of her western Massachusetts office. Police say a cocaine ring was run right out of that office

Democrat leaders surround themselves with FRAUD!!

BREAKING: Lamar Cook, former aide to Democrat MA Gov. Maura Healey, has been arrested AGAIN on charges of SNAP and wire fraud after he allegedly “mistakenly” received over $30,000 in vacation pay and falsified his income to receive SNAP benefits.

Cook is already facing charges for cocaine trafficking and firearm charges.

WTF is going on in Massachusetts?

Is a man named Maura like a Boy Named Sue?

I knew I wouldn’t be there to guide you
to keep you from cocaine trafficking, gun
charges and SNAP fraud,
so I gave you the name Maura.

I admit I don’t consume a lot of media, so I am an outlier. But, as a MA resident, I can honestly say that I have never seen a single Mike Minogue ad. I see Healey ads all over YouTube.

“mistakenly” received over $30,000 in vacation pay

Governor: You know how it is when you're on a luxury vacation in a resort in the South of France but you feel like you're in a Motel Six driving to good fishing locations and eating at fast food joints on the way? You just don't notice you're spending $39,000 .

This wouldn’t have happened if Massachusetts wasn’t so racist.

LaMar Cook under arrest, is the former $138,000 Western Massachusetts deputy director for Governor Maura Healey.

His qualifications for his government job primarily came from his career in hospitality management:

• Hotel Management: He spent six years as the director of Hotel UMass in Amherst, where he oversaw daily operations and strategic development.

• Prior Hospitality Experience: Before that, he spent several years managing and working at various hotels in Boston, Northampton, and New Haven, Connecticut.

Following his arrest in October 2024 on federal drug trafficking charges, serious questions arose regarding how he was vetted for the position.

Governor Healey’s administration declined to publicly release his resume, letters of recommendation, or official qualifications.

Reports later surfaced alleging that state Representative Bud L. Williams acted as a political patron to secure the $115,000-a-year appointment, though Williams denied any role in vetting or influencing the hire.

He was literally her rep in the Western part of the state.

The question everyone should be asking is, “What lead to your decision to hire this guy? He had cocaine delivered to the office.”

This guy should be stapled to Maura at every turn. Remember Willie Horton? This guy is worse than him.
