The Biden administration’s Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) chief is under investigation for allegedly handing no-bid contracts worth millions of dollars to previous colleagues, The Associated Press reported Thursday, citing sources familiar with the probe.
The Justice Department’s Office of Inspector General is conducting the investigation after at least a dozen employees, including some of DEA Administrator Anne Milgram’s previous associates, were hired under the contracts, according to the AP. One portion of the probe centers around $4.7 million for “strategic planning and communication” contracts handed to Milgram’s previous colleagues from the New Jersey attorney general’s office and at New York University, where she served as a professor, that exceeded the pay for government employees.
“Some of these deals look very swampy,” Scott Amey, general counsel of the nonpartisan Project on Government Oversight, said of the months-long probe, according to the AP.
The work the associates have been tasked with involves handling intelligence, data analytics, community outreach and public relations, according to the AP.
One of the contracts went to Milgram’s previous state director of gangs, guns and violent crime when she served as New Jersey attorney general, Jose Cordero, a veteran New York City police official, according to the AP. Within weeks of starting her job at the DEA, Milgram gave Cordero a data analysis crime stats contract now worth roughly $400,000. more

Big Pedo didn’t get his 10%.
We’ve devolved to a point that corruption, influence peddling, bribery, “swampy” dealings, voter fraud, Flash mobs of blacks with no fear of pushback, complete disregard of the Constitution & nature and blatant lying under oath are now SOP. All in our faces. All without the least fear of retribution.
If ever the old saying, What are you gonna believe, your lying eyes or me, was truer, I wouldn’t want to be there either.
Just one more way Socialist/Communists can rob the nation blind!
