Trump letting Mississippi get away with a giant welfare scandal:

[applegrove]

Trump is letting Mississippi get away with a massive welfare scandal that channeled money to Brett Favre and others.

The state was supposed to pay 0 million for allowing embezzlement from a federal program for needy families.

But the penalty was dropped.

1. Everything this criminal cabal does is a hypocritical fucking joke!

Renee Good is a "domestic terrorist", yet Trump pardoned 1600 actual Domestic terrorist.

Iranians should be allowed the freedom to protest, but not American citizens.

It's still "Sleepy Joe" all the time, yet he falls asleep in cabinet meetings on live TV.

I could go on and on.

2. The Minnesota welfare scandal was completely different because brown Somali people did it.

The mastermind was a white woman (maybe she will be eventually pardoned), but some bad brown people did this fraud and even though they were actual US citizens and not undocumented, it isn't enough that they were tried for fraud and convicted, but all the other brown Somali people in Minnesota, who had. nothing to do with the welfare fraud and are also mostly US citizens, deserve to be harassed by ICE and maybe deported, along with however many Latino and Asian people they can round up, as well as a few Native Americans, just to put a little extra frosting on the hypocrisy cake.

4. Well, to be "fair" Minnesota also didn't vote for him, and its governor had the temerity to run against his ticket

He's probably driven by a combination of racism, xenophobia, and ego in this matter, as is the case in pretty much everything he does (unless it involves putting money directly in his own pocket, those criteria are different and overriding).

3. Re: MN fraud The founder and executive director of Feeding Our Future was Aimee Bock, a white American woman,

who was accused of overseeing the fraud scheme.

Is he going to pardon her but not the employees, associates and co-defendants whose skin color offends the Orange fuckwit?

HOW IS THIS CONNECTED TO SOMALI AMERICANS AND SOMALI IMMIGRANTS?

The founder and executive director of Feeding Our Future was Aimee Bock, a white American woman, who was accused of overseeing the fraud scheme. Most of her employees, associates and co-defendants were Somali Americans, according to local news reports.

5. Thanks for the link

Reading it,

The fraud started in 2020 ... When Trump was President
MN started investigating it in 2020
MN notified the FBI ultimately leading to indictments in 2022 when Biden was President.

It sounds like things were on the way to being fixed before Trump won in 2024. Now compare that to Medicaid/Medicare fraud related to Rick Scott ... which did not stop him from becoming governor and then Senator. Compare to Mississippi where fines were dropped by the Trump administration.

Of course remember, the 34 felonies involving fraud by Trump and his company. Where winning the Presidency removed accountability.

MN looks pretty good in comparison.

6. Massive Covid Money Fraud

was rampant across the entire United States, by individuals, businesses, corporations, etc.
And yet now, only one Blue State is being focused on for enforcement/prosecution.......

7. Sure, why not?

In this upside down world, that makes perfect sense.

8. It's a dark red state.....

and they voted for him. In Trump-world that's a "do anything you want" card.

If you support the Big Orange Pig you're golden (his favorite color). If you don't support him ICE breaks down your door.

9. Perfect Trump Criminal Storm: Kickback To Him (Surely You Doubt Not?).......

And dismissal of a financial crime, of which type crime he believes none exists, because to mobsters laws against fraud, e.g., are themselves illegal.
