Rep. Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick, D-Fla., was indicted Wednesday on charges she stole and laundered $5 million in federal relief funds and used the money for her congressional campaign, the Justice Department said.
In a news release citing the indictment, the Justice Department said that Cherfilus-McCormick, 46, and Edwin Cherfilus, 51, her brother, worked on a staffing contract funded by the Federal Emergency Management Agency for Covid vaccinations tied to their family health care company in 2021 and that the company was overpaid by $5 million in relief funds.
She and her brother are accused of conspiring to steal the overpayment and route it through various accounts to conceal its origins. Cherfilus-McCormick is alleged to have used the money for her own enrichment and to fund a significant part of her congressional campaign.
Democrats stealing just like Soviet communist party members.
Guess she couldn’t make enough money insider trading, and wasn’t plugged into enough NGOs.
I sometimes believe that the irrational COVID panic-demic was created solely to LOOT Western Nations of their wealth and transfer it to totalitarian communists who could never HOPE to actually EARN that kind of money in 50 of their worthless lifetimes.
Why did I know even before looking that she was black?
Did no one take her aside and explain how to properly do corruption?
Kate is right, if you Google search “cbc Rep. Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick, D-Fla., was indicted Wednesday” you get loads of hits but none from CBC. I got nothing for National Post either but Yahoo Canada and CTV did show up.
