DOGE says $312M in loans were given to children during COVID pandemic

DOGE announced a further wave of contract terminations and said it has identified $312 million worth of loans issued to children aged 11 and younger.

www.yahoo.com

DOGE has made a lot of claims that have turned out to not be accurate or true.

They may be right on this one, but I’m going to continue to take anything the Elon bros say with plenty grains of salt.

If Trump hadn’t made everything DOGE is doing subject to the Presidential Records Act and not subject to FOIA maybe we could all evaluate these claims. You know…..the “maximum transparency” for DOGE dealings that co-Prez Elon promised.

Only $300 million, nothing to get worked up about...

We’ve known this since the beginning. This isn’t news.

 

[CowboyJD]

Can somebody remind me what President signed the legislation for this PPP boondoggle?

Can Elon tell us when this fraudulent money was actually handed out to 11 year olds or when their applications were approved.? Maybe specifically break it down into loans/awards authorized before and after Jan 20, 2021.

I’d like to know that information.

“Maximum transparency” and whatnot.

Oh it's a bunch of BS but it's a bunch of BS we've known about for a while.

If they are hyping this up, then they aren't finding what they are looking for elsewhere.

I wonder if Senator Mullin made the list on this one

Ran from Apr 3, 2020 to May 31, 2021 so chances are this was probably under the 1st Trump term.

That said, this program was horribly run across the board regarding checking for a delivery preventing fraud. I'm glad they at least did some work looking for a varying fraud after the fact. I don't know if that's still ongoing or what percentage of cases they've found and tried.

Yes I know that.

My questions were largely sarcastically rhetorical.

And the money is gone. We’re not getting it back. I seriously doubt these will be referred for criminal prosecution.

I thought DOGE’s mission was to discover and stop ongoing fraud and discover cost savings. Seems like it’s maybe that they’re pursuing other goals. But we’ll never know because their work has been exempted from the freedom of information act.

* shoulder shrug* Trust in Elon, I guess.

So they texting about sensitive and classified info on an unsecure app/servers.

Where have I heard Trump rail.about this subject before? What was he wanting to happen to people who did this?

Was just adding on for the group and supporting your position.

Oohh, trying to deflect.

You ok with the lack of oversight and transparency with DOGE?

I wonder if anyone is keeping track of the number of times "I don't know anything about that" and "That's the first I'm hearing about this" has come out of his mouth since taking office...

Theft from the Covid relief plan known as PPP was even worse than we thought

The official in charge of Covid relief tells NBC News' Lester Holt that programs like PPP were structured in ways that were "an invitation" to fraudsters.

I take issue with the fact that old, well known fraud is being presented as newly found fraud.

Some people may call doing that, get this...also fraud.

 

[cowboyinexile]

No one likes fraud. But it's been mentioned a bunch that everyone knew this was a serious problem long ago.

Tomorrow, DOGE discovers that a former Secretary of State was using a private email server and a week later they find out a former administration was secretly trafficking arms to a 3rd world adversary to fund anti communist groups in Central America.

Can't vouch for accuracy but seems on par for them.

My bad for not spending the time that polds does surfing the net for every pearl clutching article I can find.

Bringing up old stuff and a condescending apology. You start complaining about money or not getting equal time with the kids and I'm gonna start wondering if we used to be married.
