Bribed USDA Employee Helps Run “One of the Largest Food Stamp Frauds in U.S. History”!

[Reagan]

From the article:  

"Long plagued by waste and corruption, the nation’s massive food stamp program has reached a new low with a multi-million-dollar fraud and bribery scheme abetted by an insider at the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), the agency that administers the scandal-plagued welfare program. It gets better. The longtime USDA employee worked in a special division responsible for identifying fraud—which is rampant—within the food stamp program, which was renamed Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) by the Obama administration to eliminate the stigma of receiving public assistance. Her name is Arlasa Davis and federal prosecutors recently charged her and five of her accomplices for operating “one of the largest food stamp frauds in U.S. history.”

For more than five years Davis and her conspirators ran a “sprawling fraud and bribery scheme that generated over $66 million” in unauthorized food stamp transactions, according to the Department of Justice (DOJ). The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) found that Davis abused her position and privileged access to confidential government databases to help the others in the ring embezzle food stamp benefits by driving tens of millions of dollars in fraudulent transactions."

Inside job. Not poor hungry “scammers” who might like a candy bar.

What you reckon they’d find if they scrubbed the Pentagon budget like they’re scrubbing the social programs. So easy to blame the defenseless.

REAL PROGRESS
It’s called making good decisions.

its called being responsible.

its called getting a job or two or three. At one point in my life I had 5 jobs….as of now I just went down to two…..

able body people are not defenseless…many have been told they are by the likes of certain people.

I could go on and on…..no point thougH as I can already see it now someone posting an outlier 🤦

I give "people" more credit than apparently UT Alum and the Democrats.....

I think every able bodied person, even folks with some disabilities, are capable of supporting themselves. 

I think if more people thought that way, we as a society would be in a better place

Totally agree. I work with physically and mentally disabled people….(a percentage of the parent s use them for gain….pathetic and sad) 

a good portion of these people are amazing in the sense of they don’t let their disability hold them back….they have a great attitude and a good worth ethic…..they aim to please.  
I know some veterans who ve lost limbs and do a better job than those with all their limbs.

really if anyone wants to accomplish something then victim mentality is not part of that equation even if they are a real victim unlike these fake victims.
