I do get idea that some Ukraine money may have also been stolen. Call it a hunch.

It wasn’t “stolen.”

It was transferred to the globalists fair-and-square.

NYS has been using CoupFlu funds for all kinds of things.

Technically that money wasn’t stolen, but it sure as Hades was misspent.

How many hundreds of billions does misspent run?!

Yep.

When you look at what Trump went through, courts, the Democrats wholly resisting him, and “his own” party either actively siding with the Democrats or just cooling their heels and keeping their filthy mouths shut, for a total of maybe $4 paltry Billion spent.

Just the other day they pulled $6.8 billion out of their collective (OUR collective) asses to send, free and easy, to Ukraine.

Just.

Like.

That.

No mess. No Fuss.

And today? $200 billion.

Just.

Like.

That.

Gone. Vanished. None of the pearl clutching from the Left. None of the hysteria from the media. None of the vituperation. Nobody conducting hearings or putting people in jail. $200 billion gone. Just gone. Into someone’s pockets. I would take a wild guess into whose pockets, but...no difference.

It’s actually $500 Billion for those tracking it. Enough to outright buy almost any company in the world, save for a few.

And the lead investigator is Horowitz from the DOJ, of all people!

We were completely scammed.

Wasn't that the whole point?
One of many redistribution plans, to transfer wealth from the rich to the poor even more wealthy.

Whereas the hospitals that snuffed out the many earned $39k per kill.

They obviously know where the money went. I guess it is a matter of whether they want it back. Payoffs, ripoffs and things nobody saw.

Is anyone going to do anything about it?

I didn’t think so.

Actually it was stolen and most of it was looted from the PPP program (paycheck protection plan) where employers filed with local banks for “grant money” to make payroll and stay in business during the lockdowns and pandemic.

It was all done on the “honor system” so thousands of people got money from Uncle Sugar and they were supposed to use it to pay their employees and bills.

While I am sure there were many who were honest and used it for employees I am certain there were many who spent it on themselves for things that had nothing to do with their business.
