Audited by the Lt. Gov in her fake hijab?  It's federal tax money, it needs a federal audit.

Well your daddy just cut off all funding, so we'll see what that means to the working class Americans who need child care.

Why are we paying for childcare with tax dollars in the 1st place

Because Congress approved it.  You know how America works?

My daddy!  I'd post all the things I've objected to re: Trump, vs. the zero things you've agreed with, but what's the use... low intelligence, derping away.

So funny I forgot to laugh.

Nothing “funnier” than right-wing arseholes finding a way to fock over every parent in America with their .

What’s funny is that they claimed this daycare didn’t have kids and after being proven wrong this is the best they could come up with. The Nick Shirleys and acolytes of this world make it a noticeably worse place to live.

There were cribs but no babies, three smaller kids at a table, and 2 slightly older kids watching TV.  I’m not sure that’s definitive proof the place is legit.

Another “gotcha” based on a few seconds of video. Didn’t people learn about jumping to conclusions after Nicky used deceptive editing to create fake news? I guess not.

I never said that meant it was definitely fraud, I’m saying a few kids is not proof it’s legit.  But putting up fake family photos on a wall is certainly odd, to say the least.   Not to mention covering a wall which says “science.”  And to the left of the fake photos are some drawings from April.

They blurred out the kids faces in the video. Did it ever occur to you that they might have had actual pics of the kids on their wall that they covered up? 

Also, what is this insistence that these daycares have something to prove? They get regular inspections from the state. And the state toughened things up after the big statewide fraud scandal.

If you're somali you are guilty until proven innocent apparently.

I don’t think they blurred the faces, they were just facing a different direction.  But that’s a good point, if they did blur the faces they could have blurred the personal photos too.  So that seems to be acknowledging that the photos are fake…besides, couldn’t they have just put paper or something over them, not fake photos?

Yes, they do get inspections and this particular center was just inspected in November and had 10 violations.    Maybe they didn’t do anything illegal…but it shouldn’t be this easy to get a million dollars to provide substandard care.  Again, I disagree with Shirley’s tactics, but this does look like a program that needs major reform.

I think it was dumb how in the original video “David” kept saying how many kids the places were licensed for, because that didn’t necessarily mean they were claiming to have that many kids there.  But this place is only licensed for 40, yet received $1.29 million in funding last year.  Even if there were 40 kids, that’s almost $2700 per month per child, so they must be telling the state they are maxed out.
