In related news, Fox ran a story yesterday with the unlikely headline, “
DOGE says $312M in loans were given to children during COVID pandemic.”
Yesterday, DOGE announced discovering that in 2020 and 2021, the SBA awarded over 5,600 forgivable loans (totaling $312 million dollars) to extraordinary borrowers whose only listed owner was 11 years old
or younger at the time of the loan.
Kiddie loans. Those immature borrowers also all used social security numbers with the wrong names, just saying.
On top of that, the efficiency agency also reported that the SBA issued 3,095 other loans ($333 million) to industrious borrowers
over 115 years old. One wonders how many “small business owners” over
80 years old got forgivable SBA covid loans, and whether they even know it happened. Never mind the under 11s, how many were under 18?
Is there a single functioning neuron in the SBA? Were these freebie ‘loans’ to kiddies and grandpas approved by the same diligent, apolitical federal workers who can’t be troubled to report five weekly accomplishments? Is this why DOGE can’t be allowed to peek inside Treasury or Social Security?
Again, the story isn’t just about savings. This story is much bigger. It’s about
what the Hades is going on? The same bureaucrats who rubber-stamped giveaway loans for toddlers and centenarians are the same ones now assuring us that our elections, our economy, and our institutions are in capable hands that cannot be questions.
I don’t know about you, but I’m starting to think they might not be 100%
compos mentis.
Pandemic anniversary recap: media turns on experts, new book hints at COVID accountability, USAID gutted, kiddie loan scandal deepens, record-young Alzheimer’s case, and Utah bans fluoride; more.
