California unemployment fraud reaches at least $20 billion
KTLA ^ | Oct 25, 2021

11% of all benefits paid since the start of the pandemic.

In California, the fraud was so widespread that state officials OK’d at least $810 million in benefits in the names of people who were in prison, including dozens of infamous killers on death row. State officials even sent $21,000 in benefits to an address in Roseville under the name and Social Security number of U.S. Sen. Dianne Feinstein, some of the $2 million in total fraudulent payments that were sent to that same address.

You would think someone could make a LOT of money investigating and exposing this kind of fraud. Hire retired detectives and the like or even start the business and contract to Pinkerton or something like that.

Ask for 10% of savings and you could make an absolute killing!

They don’t want to save money or eliminate fraud and waste.

That is how they get their campaign funding....................

What do they care? Gavin Newsom just won his recall election by a wide margin. Unemployment and welfare fraud just isn’t an issue for his kook base, regardless of the cost.

So what did Feinstein do with the money?
$2M in her name, with her SS number.
I didn’t know she was unemployed…

Gov Newsom himself stole $1.4 billion in April 2020 to buy masks from a Chinese BUS company. This is the same company he bought electric/hybrid buses from that break down in San Francisco (bribe money). The 60ft buses can’t go up San Francisco’s hills or go up over 5% to 10% inclines without breaking down more often.

BTW no masks ever showed up. The money disappeared. This is his buy in for a presidential run. Like the $600 million Cuomo stole from HUD for his gov race. Pass it thru the democrat party hands just like the mob.

News reports will continue to blame “the pandemic” in general, but the pandemic did not dictate the economic lock downs.

The pandemic keeps getting blamed for many bad things which really have been the fault of bad policies made in haste in reaction to the pandemic, the lock downs the worst of them.

Brilliant ploy! What state employee would dare to NOT send the money?
