JTN: Former Green Bay Packers quarterback and NFL hall-of-famer Brett Favre has repaid the state of Mississippi $600,000 that he owed following the improper receipt of the money as part of an extensive fraud scheme.
Favre still owes $228,000 in interest that he could be sued for failing to pay. According to the state’s auditor, Shad White, the former NFL star was improperly paid $1.1 million in welfare funds in December 2017 and June 2018. The funds were funneled to Favre via the Mississippi Community Education Center, a nonprofit organization that paid him speaking fees for appearances he never made.
The quarterback was one of 10 individuals who were sent letters from White’s office this month demanding the repayment of tens of millions of dollars connected to an extensive scheme that included millions in misspent welfare benefits. more
This story will be BOOMING across the world for days. Wanna know why?
Favre is “White”
/Salute
Why are non-profits allowed to pay speaking fees? When did Favre find out about this? What efforts did he take to refund the money? Let’s see the whole picture.
I’m a Lions fan so…
Another National Felon League player living up to their name.
“… improperly paid $1.1 million in welfare funds in December 2017 and June 2018. The funds were funneled to Favre via the Mississippi Community Education Center …”
So why the Hell was Mississippi paying that kind of money to fraud in the first place? Anybody going to jail?
“Improperly paid?” Sort of like Baldwin “accidentally” killing someone?
I’m sure this is just the tip of the iceberg. Every state does this kind of thing – at the behest of the FedGov – pure fukkin pork.
Our town’s High School is getting a $3.5 Million makeover! The county only has 10,000 people and the school has 293 students from grades 7 through 12!
Over $11,000 per student! No shame. And we’re “Republican!”

Was this before or after he got caught sending dick pics to the female employee of the Packers?
Sorry, she was a NY Jets employee.^^^
Here’s a link to a more comprehensive article. I want to know why no one’s being charged?

I loved his style of play, but man he’s white trash. Nearly killed himself in a drunk driving incident, before going to the NFL. Painkiller addiction. Sending dick pics to woman in the Jet’s organization and now this.
Oh, I looked at the local newspaper.
$3.7 Million for an 8,000 sq.ft. addition.
$462.50 per square foot (national average (home) is roughly $114). Somebody’s cleaning up on this bullshit.
My home was built for about $110 sq.ft. back in 08 when all the prices went apeshit because of Bush and Obola (gasoline went to $4.50/gal or so).
Cronies are paid, politicians take their cuts, the facilitators (Fed Agencies) get a skim – and the taxpayers get fucked.

I haven’t seen a single quasi-governmental non-profit that was not being exploited by the Democrats to feather the nest of their own or their hangers on. It is also where they place their up and coming aspirants to vet them before running them for elected office as well.
According to an audit by White’s office in May 2020, the state of Mississippi had allowed millions of dollars in funds meant to help alleviate poverty to be used in ways that had nothing to do with benefitting the poor. Two nonprofit groups in particular used funds on lobbyists, football and concert tickets, and fitness programs for state lawmakers.
Expect to see more of his ugly puss hawking useless copper compression shit on the tube to pay the accrued interest.

Farve gets millions and the powers that be in the “non-profits” arrange for
tickets to be comped to a third party who donates to the Democrats who installed them in the high paying position in the “non-profit.” That is how the scheme works.
