DOGE: Three Democrat-Run States Created Most of the $382 Million Unemployment Fraud
Breitbart ^ | 12 Apr 2025 | AMY FURR

Posted on 04/12/2025 10:52:39 AM PDT by Mr. Mojo

The Elon Musk-led Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) is pointing the finger at three Democrat-controlled states for the bulk of fraudulent unemployment payments.

The agency recently uncovered $382 million in such payments since 2020 and named California, New York, and Massachusetts as the top states to blame for the problem, Fox News reported on Friday.

In a social media post on Wednesday, DOGE said, “An initial survey of Unemployment Insurance claims since 2020 revealed the following: – 24.5k people over 115 years old claimed $59M in benefits – 28k people between 1 and 5 years old claimed $254M in benefits – 9.7k people with birth dates over 15 years in the future claimed $69M in benefits.”

Massachusetts is a dirty, dirty state. Has been been over 100 years.

The whole Dem party is a giant criminal/terrorist organization. It should be treated as such.

A whopping $382 million in fraudulent payments since 2020 by
Democrat-plagued California, NY, and Massachusetts, DOGE found.

Also a small state, which makes its inclusion here the more notable.

Howie Carr has been telling us about the history of graft in the Bay State for many years.

doing fox news interview on efforts by State level FBI arrests around the country. Which BTW, have nothing to do with the efforts of Her and Paddle... Because according the the superior minds, it takes more than 2 months for a thorough investigation...

California, New York, and Massachusetts. Not much of a shocker there, although I’d have guessed Illinois in place of Massatooshitts. Ah, well, somebody has to protect our Civil War veterans. Nearly 10,000 people who won’t be born for another 15 years are getting loot, too. Sweet deal for them.

I’m beginning to think that she’s in over her head.

The DOJ is essentially wholly against her. A nearly impossible task to flip it in a short term and redirect to prosecutions.

I firmly believe that the job merits a former general for the role...unless she’s preparing for mass firings and lining up loyalists for those vacated positions (but no more ‘hope’: That hand done filled).

So was I. Maybe Chicago gang members make enough illicit money such that they don't need other funding.

She needs to replace every 'power position' with her people. Every single one.

In over her head is about right. AG in a state run by your party is worlds easier than trying to run the Fed DOJ filled with treasonous rats. I would say she is in way over her head.
