SAN FRANCISCO -- As much as $31 billion in California unemployment funds have been paid out to scammers, California EDD admits.
ABC7 News' 7 On Your Side has been tracking the numerous fraudulent claims that have been plaguing the EDD and on Monday afternoon, it confirmed that even more money than previously reported has been paid out to scammers.
In an EDD conference call, Julie Su, secretary for the California Labor and Workforce Development Agency said, "Of the 114 billion dollars in unemployment paid by California since March, approximately 10% has been confirmed as fraudulent. An additional 17% of the paid claims have been identified as potentially fraudulent."
That's $11.4 billion confirmed and as much as $20 billion more in fraud.
"There is no sugar coating the reality, California did not have sufficient security measures in place to prevent this level of fraud," Su said.
The EDD says it is working to verify the identities of people who made claims and many remain under investigation.
A few weeks prior, 7 On Your Side found that more than $8 billion unemployment funds were stolen from California taxpayers in 2020, four times higher than estimated in December.
Su, is expected to be nominated for the US Labor Department by President Biden, Bloomberg reports.
I recall that Trump wanted to send out the money via the Social Security System and the IRS, but the Democrats opposed Trump and wanted to send the money via the State’s Unemployment System.
Now surprises here. This is how the corrupt Democrats continue to fund their illegal operations.
And the California budget deficit is....?

So Career Criminals in California State Government Paid $31 Billion in Taxpayer Funds to Career Criminals NOT in California State Government.
What is unusual or surprising about this?

If they paid out $114 billion in unemployment benefits, then the deficit may be close to $120 billion - this assumes some of that isn’t federal taxpayer money ($600 weekly checks that went out over the summer) which I assume most of it may be, and that the state did not cut any other expenses from it’s budget.
114 billion dollars in 9 months???
According to the Commiefornia EDD website, there are currently 1.7 million unemployed Californians.
If I did the math right in my head, that works out to $7,450 a month in unemployment payments. And somebody is just now saying Sum Ting Wong?

Recall the adulterous bastatd Newsom the gruesome.
As they squeeze me for my $700/month in income taxes. Ugh!
That’s 114 billion dollars just in unemployment payments. That doesn’t include the cost of the lucrative salary and benefits packages and rent and who knows what other expenses.
“Su is expected to be nominated for the US Labor Department by President Biden”
And then they are going to take back money from workers they “overpaid”?
They can’t find the crooks, but they can find the working folks.
So the crooks keep what they stole, and the workers have to pay back money, but the workers likely did nothing wrong.

31 BILLION DOLLARS! Imagine if Trump were still in the White House and directed the IRS to recover stimulus funds that were misappropriated by CA. Instead, Harris/Biden will congratulate him for “redistributing” the money to their most reliable voters.
