Numerous celebrities spent their Covid relief money to fund lavish parties, designer clothing, recreational travel, and more, per BI.
They used tax payer dollars to fund their already rich lifestyles.
A 🧵:
Lil Wayne received $8.9 million in grant funds from SVOG.
He reportedly allocated over $1.3 million of that money to private-jet travel and over $460,000 to clothing from high-end brands such as Balenciaga, Marni, Raf Simons, and Gucci.
Chris Brown’s company CBE Touring received a $10 million grant—of which Brown received $5.1 million personally.
His lavish 33rd birthday party reportedly cost taxpayers almost $80,000, which was spent on “atmosphere models,” an LED dance floor, bottle service, and hookahs."
JUST IN: Senator Thomas Carper disclosed he profited shorting the US economy.
Since he will be retiring, I wanted to highlight his unusual trading while in Congress for 40 years.
He became a millionaire many times over on a modest federal salary from trading.
Take a look:
Thomas Carper bought 30k in $PSQ, an ultrashort $QQQ index, on July 13 2023.
He hedged/shorted in the past with great results with $HDGE, $SH & $PSQ.
He got out of his positions in August/September, as the market fell and he sold for a cool +15%.
Before the vaccines were announced, Carper held $RMD, $APO, and $OHI.
On 07/09 he sold his positions in $RMD, $APO, $OHI. Two weeks later, $RMD drops 15% on vaccine news (no need for ventilators), $APO / $OHI 10-20% over 3 months.
