Corrupt politicians are corrupt.

Seems pretty low to steal disaster relief funds.



BREAKING: Democrat Congresswoman Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick (FL) & several co-defendants were just indicted by a grand jury for allegedly stealing federal disaster funds, laundering the proceeds, & using the money to support her 2021 congressional campaign. She is facing up to 53 years in prison if she is convicted.

According to the indictment, Cherfilus-McCormick, 46, & her brother Edwin Cherfilus, 51, both of Miramar, worked through their family health-care company on a FEMA-funded COVID-19 vaccination staffing contract in 2021. In July 2021, the company received an overpayment of $5 million in FEMA funds.

The indictment claims the defendants conspired to steal that $5 million & routed it through multiple accounts to disguise its source. Prosecutors allege that a substantial portion was used as candidate contributions to Cherfilus-McCormick's 2021 congressional campaign & for the personal benefit of the defendants.

The indictment further alleges that Cherfilus-McCormick & Nadege Leblanc, 46, of Miramar, arranged additional contributions using straw donors, funneling other monies from the FEMA-funded Covid-19 contract to friends & relatives who then donated to the campaign as if using their own money.

"Using disaster relief funds for self-enrichment is a particularly selfish, cynical crime," said Attorney General Pamela Bondi. "No one is above the law, least of all powerful people who rob taxpayers for personal gain. We will follow the facts in this case & deliver justice."

"We the people are the rightful masters of both Congress and the courts, not to overthrow the Constitution but to overthrow the men who pervert the Constitution."

Democrats will slap her with 3 demerits then ask her to be put on the ethics committee for remedial training.

Elections are when people find out what politicians stand for, and politicians find out what people will fall for.

Only three things are certain: taxes, death, and Democrats stealing money.

"If you will not fight for right when you can easily win without blood shed; if you will not fight when your victory is sure and not too costly; you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance of survival. There may even be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves." - Sir Winston Churchill

That Crockett clip trying to defend her…

Jazzy C say "the republicans text all day long with that 34 count felon, so they need to shut up I ain't hearing it".

Imagine defending your lies simply admitting you… well, lied. And you did so because you was in a hurry.

Then you defend the colleague here with that nonsense of he was actually convicted of those federal crimes and has to again be corrected by Collins.

Burn it down Dems.

really want to see her arrested and brought to the police station for booking

if you steal 5 million from a bank the SWAT team arrests you

if you steal 5 million from taxpayers you get to hang out in your mansion in Miramar Florida.

Why do you think people get into politics? Few are there to serve the people. I hope I am wrong but it looks impossible to stop political corruption today.

If this is uniparty concern, then it might just be the start. It also might lead to members on the right as well as the left.

Regardless, everyone needs to be found and held accountable no matter what side they're on.

Because...... they are no different than any other color. Power corrupts! Money corrupts, or rather Big money!
No one of any color goes into politics to help people, just to better themselves, or their pet causes.
Them first, America last.
We have gotten used to cherry picking our causes and how it will help us. Media picks up those screaming the loudest, cause it sells their tickets, and instead of a United america, we are in so many splinters, its going to be hard to straighten out.

Go read Booker T. Washington's book "Up From Slavery"

Even in the Reconstruction-era South, Washington noted that the worst of his black brothers either gravitated to Politics, or became preachers

Because they think its owed to them. Entitlement plain and simple. Its the same reason you see them park in handicapped spots without being handicapped.

Because people of color have duped white democrats/liberals. It's that simple.


I was on a cruise in 2018 where there was a black comedian that did a number of shows. He was really good and I am going to purposely no give his name. A small part of his standup was talking about white libs/dems. He didn't hold back. He'd pick a guy or group of guys that appeared "redneck" or "MAGA" and tell the audience he'd rather have beers with them than the white libs who would applaud him simply for being black.

People of color have been playing white libs for decades to their own enrichment and simple because the white lib created the playing field for them to do so. And as we are seeing play out real time in the dem party, the white lib has almost lost it's use to them and is being put out to pasture.

Long ago, I read the Southerners 'hated' black people in general, but liked individual blacks. And Northerners "loved" black people but didn't like individual blacks

Plays out that way for liberals and conservatives. Conservatives may dislike NAACP or LGBT groups, but would never be rude to individuals. Liberals pretend to love minorities, but don't want to work with them, live with them or be friends with them

If you flip the org chart you have laid out you will have it correct.

It's the white liberal who has used and abused the people of color, lesser classes for centuries.

As the Blacks become more assertive to their voice by supporting MAGA or non-progressive libs )if such a thing exists still), the libs will Uncle Tom them right out of the party. Blacks are less than 1/8 of the US population meaning in a two party system they have to latch their wagons to one party or another as a group in order to be influential at all.

They simply do not have the numbers to be dominant. And one could make a very reasonable, accurate and substantiated assessment that they have a dramatically outsized voice in politics. The Rs originally provided that voice until it was co-opted by the libs and within a few short decades they have enslaved that voice.
