Democratic money laundering

Performance artist Maxine Waters, who moonlights as a congresswoman, was recently seen screeching about the demise of USAID and the Department of Education. I don’t think she and her fellow Democrats are upset about eliminating funding for Guatemalan sex changes, or Sesame Street shows in Iraq or even the elimination of federal employees.

Rather, they’re upset because their money laundering operation has been exposed. Billions have been given to non-government organizations without any oversight. These NGOs all have directors and staffs that receive generous salaries and are loyal to causes championed by Democrats and donate to the party. They exist to advance the Democrats’ agenda. Some of these were created a few months ago, have no track record, and yet received $27 billion from the EPA in the waning days of the Biden administration to advance the Green New Deal. Green indeed!

The left is melting down because their corrupt abuse is being exposed and the American people can see it. Just this week every Democrat in the House voted not to extend the deadline to investigate fraud relating to federal COVID spending.

Ask yourself a simple question. Who can be against exposing waste, fraud and corruption? The answer is quite simple. Only the ones who benefit.
