Getting someone a free pass to do whatever they want because they're "diverse" is not going to fly anymore. Everyone is going to have to get in line and achieve things through quality.
I work for a medical transportation company for seniors and the disabled. We had to fight like hell to be approved, and then we had to pass two separate audits to prove the funds were used properly.
I feel like we also need to start questioning if and how much of our taxpayer money got refunnelled into Kamala's campaign, because you KNOW some of it did!!
Individuals who aren't known for good long term planning and honesty taking a government handout and misusing it? No one should be surprised they took funds meant for their crews and blew it on themselves.
“All men are created equal” got flushed down the tubes quick enough when our government took upon themselves to decide who’s livelihoods were important and who’s weren’t. Yes, I also worked through out as I have “critical” job. But isn’t everyone’s ability to work and provide for themselves and their families critical ? Do people work for the benefit of others and their government, or for themselves? Beyond 2 weeks this was a huge government overreach, and was used to seize and misuse private property (declaring a moratorium on paying rent = theft) and tax payer moneys. Sadly. I’m not surprised to hear of this corruption.
"Critical job.' That's a laugh. No job is any more or less critical than any other. How did humanity survive for hundreds of thousands of years without all these 'critical workers?" Oh yea, that's right, they're not critical. They're actually superfluous. A byproduct of a functioning society.
this makes me so ANGRY, where is the rest of our 2 billion relief fund, that is tax payers money! you know even a million would change most lives!!! they give it all to the rich! I'm freaking livid!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬
And this is why "trust the government" is fundamentally flawed. It only works if the govt is actually looking out for YOU, and not the Corpos who paid to put them in office.
@Chayliss for his winery that is so small it's not even on the wine tour map for Napa Valley, and from what I've heard from people that samples the wine, it's a $6 bottle selling for $40. The PPP was supposed to cover 6 months of payroll.
Pish posh, a million here, two million there; that’s chump change. It’s not like all these peasant workers out there would actually spend it on anything worthwhile. -rolls eyes-
The government should stop and halt any type of hiring athletes, celebrities, singers, or whatever type of entertainment funding immediately. Especially with all the scandals that are going on.
That's entirely up to you, bud. How you react to things is the difference between being a child and an adult... It's mostly from the lunatic leftists that the "look what you made me do!" argument comes in to play.
Never let a 'crisis' go to waste, these people, the rich, the ivy league class, the celebrity beautiful people have no concept of wasting money, especially if it isn't theirs. Spending large, living large while the majority suffer with a gun to their heads is what the 1% do. They will never care or be embarrassed about the hypocrisy, Kevin is right if they get no repercussions, they will do what they can get away with.
This disgusts me I go to college full time and I work full time so I can afford to pay my bills to pay for college and I struggle week to week. I watch my spending I have to put so much of my check each week away and sometimes I might only eat once a day and these aholes do **** like this.
Meanwhile my small business was denided PPP so i had no choice but to lay off 4 employees. The ice cream business next door closed for the same reason.
The entertainment industry should not be compensated by the federal or state government for anything. It is a nonessential service. All goes under I don’t give a shit I’d rather eat and Watch my 20 year old DVDs
at the least they can do is give the money back plus a big fine! and public shaming! if luck maybe some time 3 months or 6 months at max they are rich we all know they will be seen as much more important because they will spend money to be out getting taxed! poor humans just go to jail!
Come on, take a look at these 'celebrities'. I wouldn't trust them to manage a 5 year old's piggy bank, let alone millions of dollars in relief funds. It is obvious that they didn't put one red cent into the quality of their music and it shows. If a person isn't taking advantage of people and preaching to them while they are doing; they aren't a 'celebrity'. The only good thing about this scandal, and many others, is that it is waking up their fans and the present collapse of the entertainment industry is proving this fact.
I'm so glad I work for all my shyt and ain't out here looking for handouts, panhandling on social media and looking shortcuts. That's no way to live life
The bigger issue is, why didn’t the end lender catch the fraudulent applications before funding the loans? The end lenders handing out the PPP loans were not verifying the tax returns. They were not using 4506-T transcript request forms as part of the PPP loan process. Many applicants used third parties to fill out their applications and those third parties were submitting false tax returns and the lenders (who were making money themselves handing out these loans) were not checking that the tax returns were legitimate.
Did you know, the Government funds Home Insurance for he rich people in Malibu. Malibu always has Wild Fires and Landslides so no insurance companies wants to write policies for them!
If the musicians did it, the actors did it and the executives did it and everyone who did should be prosecuted to the full extent of the law, starting with every idiot and company who virtue signaled about “privilege”.
Absolutely not the last thing we need is a government get involved because if they get involved the government won't stop at Hollywood they will try to regulate and control social media like TH-cam
What keeps me going is the fact that all these celebrities are going broke. They have no income, but are still living their luxury lifestyle. These are young folks. Not sustainable. I look for lots of bankruptcy announcements to be coming our way. Starting maybe with Kardashians? And going thru the entire list of celebrities who we haven't seen or heard in years. And have 30-40 years of life left. And they gave how much to charity? It's going to be delicious.
Most of the Covid funds went to rich people. Wasn’t just celebrities. I have been doing taxes about 20 years and have never seen a program more exploitable by people who had the right people advising thrm. I won’t give Trump a free pass on this because he was in charge when the main PPP program started.
I’m shockingly…unsurprised 🤷🏾♂️ But, even as truth comes to light, it’s doubtful “fans” will care. I mean, after all fan = fanatic & many of these fanatics foam at the mouth & froth their undergarments like trained hounds. Also, I doubt anything will happen to them. But, hey I’m ok with being proven incorrect 😅
But, but, but --- these celebs are so moral. They constantly remind us in every venue of their rightness and virtue as they preach to us about DEI/ESG. They call us out as being phobes, naziess, and bigots for our outrageous statements regarding family, religion, gender or the economy. From on high they are the arbitrators of justice and righteousness.... or maybe, just maybe they aren't. To the tune of Zip-a-dee-doo-dah "Diddly do dah, Diddly may, Diddly parties but will anyone pay?" more verses but not allowed on TH-cam..lol.
Seriously, I don't get Americans, in other countries which do not have the second amendment, would have taken the country back on knowing this.... Seriously....
Other countries when though the very same thing America did. Only ONE country didn't have shutdowns and relief funds: Sweden. Otherwise the corruption was world wide.
Either we are a nation of Laws, where the law is enforced uniformly, or we are a third world kangaroo government. When the courts seem to favor one side or the other, when law enforcement seems to favor one side over the other, we are no longer a nation of law. And unfortunately, for the last four years, we have NOT been a nation of laws. We have been a third world, kangaroo country where one side uses lawfare to try to destroy their political opponents, and wields the power of government to intimidate and silence the People into compliance with the Agreed Upon Lie. Hopefully the Republicans, now that they have acquired power, will finally do something other than send a sternly worded letter. The evil, vile, reprehensible people who have been responsible for these actions need to be held accountable.
You work yor entire life and you can't even afford decent life because of amounts of the bills, those guys are sponsored by government and obviously young limited toxic tiktokers etc
Aren't these the same celebrities that lecture us about privilege?
They'll always accuse you of what they do themselves.
It’s typical Marxism… the left are full of $#\t
Getting someone a free pass to do whatever they want because they're "diverse" is not going to fly anymore. Everyone is going to have to get in line and achieve things through quality.
All the time
Some are some not
Every time I hear a celebrity lecturing about my vote, my energy usage, my privilege, their hypocrisy gets exposed again.
I work for a medical transportation company for seniors and the disabled.
We had to fight like hell to be approved, and then we had to pass two separate audits to prove the funds were used properly.
And they have the audacity to ask for more cash instead of spending it wisely
And if the average Joe or Jane would do that, they would be in jail.
I feel like we also need to start questioning if and how much of our taxpayer money got refunnelled into Kamala's campaign, because you KNOW some of it did!!
You can start with all the flights on Air Force 2…
I think more money gets laundered in Hollywood than clothes.
These were deemed ‘essential’ meanwhile thousands of small businesses were shuttered.
Between BLM / Antifa rioting and lockdowns, 41% of black owned businesses closed forever.
Individuals who aren't known for good long term planning and honesty taking a government handout and misusing it? No one should be surprised they took funds meant for their crews and blew it on themselves.
They were paying regular people more to sit at the house than I made working a critical job. No sympathy for anyone here.

It's not just celebrities. Almost all of the wealthy class did this.

That's definitely not going to happen because the government can be just as corrupt
Just look much money was squandered with PPP loans.

Every time I hear a celebrity start to talk.....my ears shut off.....😅😂
i hate that this is just par for the course and not some giant scandal.
Its all corruption.
The rich should never receive a hand out.
We are starting to figure out why Hollywood loved Harris. Those P. Didty parties must be expensive.

Wait...the same entertainment industry that saw RECORD GROWTH during the pandemic because everyone was home and bored?
They, needed a bail out...
What's sad is the way the actors were allowed to keep working while the country was shut down going broke.
Between this and Sean Combs, it’s no wonder celebrities are leaving the country.

Give DOGE a specail prosecutor !!
Repercussions? There will be none.
