If they are admitting to it, then its definitely too low
I’m sure it was back doored into Democrats, GOPe and child sex slavers
NOOOOO!!!!!! Please tell me this is not so. How could it be? Can someone fact check this so I can ignore it. /sark
Ya’ don’t say!
Who’d a thunk it.
Just another gub’ment program where dollars mean nothing and nobody oversees these taxpayer-generated funds. Totally disgusting, as always.
How about how the communists used this money to pay off and take over state and local governments?
bttt
Well, 10% for the Big Guy....who knows who all else got paid off.
New IRS agents should audit this waste and also audit whether those on entitlements/welfare are entitled under applicable regulations. The taxpayers could save Billions.
That’s a shame. That $400 billion coulda gone a long way in ukraine
Only a small fraction of that money made it to Ukraine, it was skimmed for domestic projects that Manchin an Sinema nixed.`
Brandon’s fault.(And a little bit of Trump’s fault as well.)
Um...the real theft, if the media cared to look, is hidden away in the other 90% of Covid spending. Likely a lot more than $400 billion siphoned off there.
“More than $400 billion of it—nearly one in every $10 spent—was either wasted or stolen..”
THIS was half the purpose of the “pandemic”. Just like a lot of our wars. - $$$$$$
(The other half was government- taking control over the citizens instead of vice-versa)
“Well, 10% for the Big Guy. . . .”
And a huge amount to China.
I feel like a sucker being honest. I got a PPP loan and paid salaries, so I didn’t take the state unemployment and $600 weekly federal handouts... would’ve made a lot more if I did.
Many of my employees didn’t want to come back to work - they made $1000 a week not working.
In retrospect it may have ended up being a good thing. A lot of dead wood is now adrift floating outside my world and I get to rebuild. It hasn’t been easy. Covid shutdowns really caused me a major hardship the PPP loan just papered over a few months of what was essentially 2 years of nothing. All my competitors got the jump on me in liquidating their inventory so I got stuck with basically nobody to sell to and a warehouse of inventory and equipment idled. I did a little business.... but 20% of what I had done before Covid.
Only $400 billion?
$400 billion out of $4.2 trillion? Probably more than $2 trillion.
I remember Trump begging Congress for $5 biilion for the Wall, and Nancy said “we can’t afford it.”
