Yesterday, we reported on the Washington Examiner uncovering 75,000 plus bogus jobs from the Stimulus Bill. Today, we have even more fishy news on the Stimulus front. Bill McMorris from Watchdog.org discovered that there seems to be stimulus money going to "phantom congressional districts", according to Recovery.gov. D.J. McGuire from Virginia Virtucon dug into this claim in Virginia and discovered that not only was this claim true, but Virginia, which has 11 congressional districts, received stimulus funds in many, many more districts than the recognized 11. Here is an image taken from Recovery.gov showing money being allocated to Virginia Congressional Districts: Notice, this chart showing the funds being delivered to Virginia includes many more districts than the federally recognized 11. Even further, the chart shows jobs being created in "unknown" portions of Virginia. And as D.J. wrote: In all seriousness, this is beyond embarrassing. Either the Administration is bending over backwards to make sure Joe Biden is never wrong (“Someone is getting scammed already”) or they can’t take the time to remove non-existent districts from the website supposedly dedicated to track the stimulus funds. This crew can’t even get a website right, and we’re supposed to entrust them with health care? A full explanation is expected.
