It has been called the greatest grift in American history: an estimated $280 billion of taxpayer money that was supposed to help needy families and businesses through the COVID pandemic has been stolen.
Only about $8 billion has been recovered through Justice Department prosecutions, according to a new congressional letter that is raising serious concern that the government is essentially yawning at a staggering amount of loss in tax dollars.
House Oversight and Accountability Committee Chairman James Comer wrote the letter to the Justice Department last week that he believes the vast majority of unrecovered money was stolen by criminal rings in Russia, China and Nigeria.
“It is highly concerning that possibly billions of taxpayer dollars intended to help Americans suffering the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic were stolen by organized criminal rings in foreign countries,” Comer wrote.

How much did The Big Guy get???
“How much did The Big Guy get???”
Exactly. Biden does not want the recovery of the Covid money to go to deep.
I can’t believe they can’t track it down. That money had to go into someone’s bank account somewhere. There had to be applications filed to apply for aid. If they can’t find the money it’s because they don’t want to.
That's only about $840 for every man, woman, and child in America!
Bidenskyyyyyy should be in prison for the money he allowed to be stolen.
If anyone believes that Biden doesn’t know where every penny of the COVID $billions went, they’re dopey than he is.
The most interesting part of this is was all tax free and the govt didn’t get their kick back......................
Tammany Hall has nothing on Jail House Joe.
Government employees likely got the bulk of it
The headline only needed the first four words.
Bidenskyyy is a great name.
He and that Zelenskyy should have side-by-side cells.
Reparations by another name.
Yeah, missing taxpayer money is a feature not a bug in Democrat/Globalist machinations.
What about the trillion or so stolen by Ukraine?
Maybe Biden can send those 87,000 new IRS agents to Russia, China, and Nigeria to collect our money.
“....were stolen by organized criminal rings in foreign countries,” Comer wrote....”
Recovered only $8 Mil. out of $280 mil. You don’t say!!! But the most crooked politician in the history of the nation is the one who dispensed the money. Follow HIS money trail and you will find most of it. The Biden Family Criminal Cartel with Don Joe calling the shots!!
The Big Guy still has his 10%.
All payola for the chosen ones.
