A Democratic congresswoman from Florida is facing decades in prison after the Justice Department accused her of stealing more than $5 million in FEMA funds. Prosecutors allege that she diverted the disaster-relief money to support her congressional campaign and enrich her associates.

The Justice Department announced Wednesday that a Miami grand jury had indicted Rep. Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick for fraudulently obtaining federal disaster funds, laundering the proceeds, and putting the money toward her 2021 congressional race. According to the Justice Department, Cherfilus-McCormick conspired with her brother, 51-year-old Edwin Cherfilus, to steal a $5 million FEMA overpayment that was sent to their family’s health care company.

The $5 million payment was made in July 2021 after the siblings had a contract with FEMA for COVID vaccinations. The money was routed through multiple accounts to Cherfilus-McCormick’s 2021 congressional campaign and other personal accounts, according to the Justice Department.

Democrats have this mindset that they can do just whatever they want to do w/no consequences or laws they must follow or heed to obey. See it .. take it.
LOL .... Now she blames this on her being "black" for the reason she's charged.

I mean Rick Scott oversaw the largest Medicare and Medicaid fraud in history and Floridians elected him to two terms as governor and two terms as a US senator. Floridians don’t seem to care that much about ethics and integrity.

Moochelle says that’s because everyone is racist.
He was CEO of a company that paid $1.7 billion dollars in fines, plead guilty to committing 14 felonies, and he plead the fifth 37 times while under oath. Single largest healthcare settlement in history. But yea I'm sure he knew nothing
