Gutless Wonder of the Day

This shit started in 2019 & obviously this one employee had access to sensitive data that went unchecked. 

Moving forward, her boss & their boss should be gone. A review of who has access to this data needs to be done as well as how this was not found during the normal auditing process needs to be identified.

This was the kind of shit DOGE was empowered to find. The mainstream media is terrified of being singled out by your boy for reporting the news & that's pathetic!

 Chuck Schumer will win at least 3-4 days a week.

Speaker Johnson has the rest of the year already won already.

 The main stream media is terrified of reporting the news.............

Trump threatens press freedom and democracy.  War on truth and control of media are among characteristics of fascism.  

Overall, food stamp fraud is rare.  Accounting for almost 1% of total benefits.  Bigger concern is republican funding cuts to vital food assistance programs for vulnerable population.

@thirdperson

 Overall, food stamp fraud is rare.

This is more utter nonsense.  This is not only NOT rare it is very costly.  It has also been vastly exacerbated since the Wuhan Flu.  For example:

It’s a significant problem. NBC4 Investigates reports that in 2024, $14 million in SNAP benefits were stolen from 27,000 victims in Ohio alone.

Meanwhile, in California, thieves stole $181 million in SNAP benefits between June 2022 and February 2024.

There have been nearly 177,000 instances of fraud in the first quarter of 2024 across 46 reporting states, according to data supplied by the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Food and Nutrition Service (FNS). It comes as some states announce plans to tackle electronic benefit transfer (EBT) card fraud affecting Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) recipients.

The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) has discovered a major food stamp fraud and bribery scheme, misappropriating millions of taxpayer dollars. This has led to the arrest of a USDA employee and five others.

In Baltimore, a dozen store owners were found to have illegally gained $16 million in SNAP benefits. In Cincinnati, owners of a meat market were convicted of $3.4 million in illegal SNAP transactions, and just last month in Fresno, a bakery owner was charged with $5 million in illegal SNAP transactions.

In New York, a government worker and her associates pocketed $1.8 million partly by buying energy drinks with EBT cards and reselling them to corner stores. In Brownsville, Texas, a pair of thieves gained $1.2 million from SNAP transactions partly by buying food with fraudulent EBT cards and then reselling it in Mexico.

In Florida, a coupleused stolen identities from nearly 700 individuals to apply online for EBT cards, and 100 of the applications were approved. The couple pocketed nearly $200,000 by swapping the cards for cash at a corrupt retailer

In one recent case in North Carolina, a SNAP caseworker altered food-stamp account information and sent EBT cards to her home address, which she then used to pocket $234,000 of benefits and cash.

A new national report estimates that criminals are pocketing almost $400 million in taxpayer money each year by taking advantage of flaws in a federal safety-net program.

@Raiders22

 Libs aren't real big on facts, just emotions.

Maga morons all across America are in favor of Trump's fascism as long as it is directed at those who choose not to straightarm salute every time his name is mentioned

in a world gone crazy this forum keeps me going. i tell you there is NOTHING more entertaining and satisfying than listening to a defeated democrat whine.

Myth of rampant SNAP fraud persists.   Stories receive disproportional attention in media and often dramatized.   SNAP has one of the most rigorous quality control in government to ensure 99% of benefits go to those who are truly eligible according to Center for budget priorities.  But 1% of huge SNAP budget is still alot of money.  However that pales in comparison to other types of fraud.  For examples, income tax and defense spending frauds are worse.  Instead of eliminating rare SNAP fraud, republican spending cuts are more likely to cause much harm or estimated $300 billion loss in benefits over a decade.  Every dollar spend on food stamps generate over $1.70 in economic activity to boost US economy.

@thirdperson

 But 1% of huge SNAP budget is still alot of money.  However that pales in comparison to other types of fraud.

   It is not a contest.  Both can be true. You posted that is was rare, when it clearly is not rare.  It does not matter if it is less or more than other types of fraud.  It is defrauded in several ways each year and is very costly. You can still work to get rid of all types of fraud.  But to downplay the fraud is very deceptive.  
   Just because it receives news does not make it disproportionate, because the good news will not receive any news.  What program is in the news every day because they have no fraud — none.  Because that is the excepted way it should be. 
   You can argue the fraud — no matter the amount — should be in the news even more.  But now it has simply become expected.  Just look at the way you have downplayed it — not once, but twice.  

GUTLESS WONDER OF THE DAY

Tonight there was a debate held in NYC to become the next Mayor of the Big Apple. Nine Democratic candidates participated, one of which was Andrew Cuomo. 

Cuomo lied to the citizens of NYC when he stated the city had defunded the police. This is total bullshit & not one of the other 8 people on the stage challenged him on the lie. It never happened. NYPD has a bigger budget than some countries.

Later in the debate Cuomo was asked how he would regulate the food delivery industry when his super PCA received 1 million from DoorDash. His response was that he always served the people of NYC & he didn't care who gave him what. His lying is trumpian!

Andrew Cuomo, you limp dick retread, are the GUTLESS WONDER OF THE DAY! 

The New York City Police Department will see the worst budget cuts in decades, threatening the city’s public safety after Mayor Eric Adams proposed cuts to every department to offset millions of dollars drained from the migrant crisis.

Adams said the next five police academy classes will be canceled, reducing the number of officers from 33,000 to 29,000 in the next two years. The city’s police department will be below 30,000 for the first time since the 1980s. According to the Adams administration, the NYPD’s $5.6 billion budget will be cut by about $132 million next year.

I think it peaked about 2020 at $5,785,046 B then in 2021 was $5,267,661 B then in 2022 was $5,617,677 B

So, for sure was dropped from its peak.

So, I think he was basically saying it was cut instead of being increased.  Then obviously the cut funds themselves were allocated to different things than what was normally expected.

Maybe ‘cut’ and ‘misappropriation’ should have been used instead of ‘defunded’.

But I am sure that is his point and that would still be correct.

But NYC was not the only city that did it. Just the biggest example of it.

ABC NEWS reporter Terry Moran has been suspended for calling Pee Wee German a "World Class Hater." The WH asked ABC how they were going to hold Moran accountable. So ABC suspended him pending further evaluation.

WTF does that mean? Further evaluation? What are they evaluating? Why not just say they are waiting for the WH to tell them what to do next?

I stated in another thread the news media is afraid of Tweety Gonzalez & this is further proof.

And I'm talking to you UNIMAN!

ABC NEWS, you flacid fucktards, are the GUTLESS WONDERS OF THE DAY! 

In the latter half of the 1930's and early 40's in NAZI Germany, the threat of devastating retribution by der Führer was enough to force the overwhelming majority to cower in fear and succumb to any whims of the FASCIST PIG in power.....also......

Who keeps perpetrating the myth?

Gavin Newsom.......hands down.

Happening today in America

GUTLESS WONDERS OF THE DAY

Top Dems led by Coward Chuck Schumer are demanding a "clear, detailed plan" from Deplorable Donnie for dealing with Iran.

Bwhaaaaaaaaa

A plan? When has Canker Sore Donald ever had a plan for anything? He doesn't need a stinkin plan! He'll do whatever he wants. He doesn't follow court orders & he certainly isn't going to listen to you putzs. 

But go ahead & create your strongly worded letter. Will you settle for a concept of a plan? Yea, sure you will. You're too dopey to realize the GOP is clueless as well. 

Chuck, you and your easily manipulated clique, are the GUTLESS WONDERS OF THE DAY!  

this will actually accelerate 

Sad that the MAGAs have sold out American Democracy...

GUTLESS WONDER OF THE DAY

We have our 1st two time winner for Gutless Wonder of the day!

"This has been an unhappy episode here in Congress, this effort to cut Medicaid. Frankly, my party needs to do some soul searching. If you want to be a working-class party, you’ve got to deliver for working-class people. You cannot take away health care from working people."

In other words, “I feel terrible about voting for this terrible bill which will hurt millions of people, but I have to so billionaires will get even more tax cuts.” What a POS!

Josh "I'm Haulin Ass" Hawley, you sir, are the GUTLESS WONDER OF THE DAY!

Schumer & Jeffries are weekly winners.

@THEMUGG

 OK; don't disagree.
