A new report from Michigan’s auditor general found the state spent $18.1 billion in COVID-19 related funding from the beginning of the pandemic through June 2023.

Roughly $11.7 billion of that total came after July 2021, the report found, outside of the scope of the auditor general’s report, and largely through the use of federal funds.

More than $17.6 billion of the money Michigan spent that qualified as “COVID-19 expenditures” came from the federal government, while the state spent less than $500 million from its own treasury.

More printed fiat money. I wonder how much of that 18 billion turned into fraud?

I wonder how much of that went towards fraud. I know the Feds spent a lot of money on fraud.

PPP money had to come from somewhere. All the painting of social distancing lines on floors, putting up clear plastic sneeze blockers at cash registers, special protective suits for EMTs and in hospitals, reimbursement of companies who kept staff employed when customers stopped coming to businesses, hair salons, orchestrating work from home hardware and software — and that doesn’t even touch the money that had to be spent at nursing homes.

This does not seem an excessive price tag.

This is just a fraction of what is happening with the climate fraud

Those ballots were not going to harvest themselves.

"Those ballots were not going to harvest themselves."

It requires teamwork
