Who do these corrupt employees think they are , Congress ?
Who knows maybe Congress is getting kickbacks to from it
They have absolutely every right to defend their finances.
We need more investigations. The authorities who are NOT crooked are on the right track. Show them the light ✨️.
They should have renamed themselves Bidens.
New York democrats
😂 they just learned how to do this from watching our federal government doing it.
This is a distraction of sorts something isn’t adding up we give nycha 1.5 billion a year only 13 million in contracts it’s not like these buildings still have a mortgage
Exactly, couldnt agree with you more, and the tax payers flip the bill and suffers.
💯
Former VP and the current Executive Branch office does this too 🎊 🎉
@@michaeleli3891when it comes to ol trumpty dumpty it's see no evil, hear no evil... why is that?
If that's the case, you might as well investigate all of NYCHA.
They are a doi investigation takes years to complete
That’s what I’m saying it dosnt add up at all we give 1.5 billion annually to nycha no mortgage I’m sure they wave the property tax only 13 million in contracts
💯💯💯
I've never even heard of the company. 🤔
@@msjannd4 are you racist? 🤣💀
All our problems come from politicians who never see any form of justice for their crimes....
Congress are the worst offenders.
The farther you go up the ladder in this country the worse the corruption gets. They fill the prisons with poor people of lesser offenses to make it look like they are putting all of the CRIMINALS in jail. They need to "Start at the top, and work their way Down!" County Sheriffs and City Cops can take care of putting poor people in jail (they do it all the time). Let the FBI, State Police and State Prosecutors go after the Big Guys. And if they don't Prosecute or they keep letting them go then the focus of the investigations shifts to the FBI and State Government. But if the guys running our Country are corrupt, who oversees them?
Now they need to investigate port authority of NY and NJ.
For what reason lol? they charge based on economical causes. Maybe pick trump next time… you wouldn’t have this problem.
@@BGE94 I'm a proud Trump supporter. So come up with another stupid comment.. m
There are more corrupt employees here and there.
True port authority runs NYC and NJ like a mafia!
@@BGE94 inflation skyrocketed right before trump left office.
Dirty contractors should be charged as well.
This will open up lawsuits by the clean contractors who were cut out.
We give them 1.5 billion a year no property taxes no mortgage only 13 million in contracts I’ve never been to college but that sure dose not add up
They are being warned to turn themselves in.
Most of them did the work and were told by the super that if they didnt pay them, they wouldnt approve full payment. Most of the contractors had nothing to do with it. You can read the indictments on the doj website
@@truthwarrior2727that lady said this is just the tip of the iceberg before they cut her off. And ohhhhhhh boy I bet this goes deep…. So deep that as soon as it starts to head back to Washington this story is going to get snuffed out 😢
NY is as corrupt as they come. Has been for decades!!
Put then all in prison!
Exactly
No.. illegals walks, so should they
NYCHA employees would make great political employees. this would be a big star on their resumes.
- MINORITIEZ ARE CRIMINALZ! - REXX
👍😉
This sounds like a RICO to me, plenty of no show JOBS.🤣🤣🤣🤣
It happens every where in U.S. in government jobs. This is why the average honest citizens are struggling to survive financially.
We have a major corruption problem in the US.
No less than 25 years in prison and loss of everything, even including entitlements. There needs to be more of a consequence for these kind of acts in our system.
The Seattle Housing Authority should be next
Virginia as well
They need to investigate all NY CITY employees. Including Bragg, The City Mayer and the Judges who let the criminals go free.
🤔🤔🤔
👏👏👏👏
Bingo
They are all protected by the mafia.
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 great comment
Corruption in Govt run housing. Who could have predicted that 😂
corruption in the stock mareke, sec is the one of the most corrupt organizations, its disgusting they halt stocks to cover their billionare buddies. everyone into trading knows this but there are way too many powerful people, nothing is done.
Landlords in Brooklyn doing work without permits and paying off City inspectors. Go after the landlords in Brooklyn specifically in Borough Park, Williamsburg, and Crown Heights.
Careful... There are tunnels in Brooklyn..... 😉
Those are untouchables the endorse the government🤦🏻♀️
@@accessdenied9105those ARE ALL JEWS biggest WELFARE SCAMS ARTIST in SOCIETY MY LANDLORD SUPPOSEDLY IS IRAN JEW BUT HE NOT HE SCAMS THE CITY STATE FOR TAX BREAKS BUT IS ALSO ON WELFARE AND GET PUBLIC ASSISTANCE TO LIVE
Facts and those create ILLEGAL TUNNELS JEOPARDISING EVERYONE IN THE BUILDINGS LIVES !!!!
Jewish pimps, landlords smh
Crime and corruption in New York? How can that be? That never happens....
It best CORRUPTION IN ALL 50ST
😂😅
That isn't the worst of it. What about the city inspectors that go over the credibility of all electrical and structural inspections. Of NYCHA buildings and restaurants, businesses, to pass inspections. Did you ever follow up and see some of the homes that these inspectors own? How do you think they got them? And those cars aside for the ones the city and the taxpayer pays for them to travel to their building inspections.
@@johnny3agm yup. Part of the swamp......corruption will not end until people hold their local and federal politicians accountable. People need to wake up and get more involved. That's why these people get away with all those crimes.
Congress and the President never get arrested for the same thing!
I'm pretty sure that they passed a law making it legal for them to use insider trading.
Bribery? @@rnettles6241
This is been going on for years and they’re just now figuring it out
Exactly. This happens all over the country. A bad worker will pay the foreman to stay on the job too.
Maybe somebody didn’t pay the 10% for the BIG GUY.?
And in every industry.
@@HailMary888mafia? No. This is the communist way, the Democrat way.
@@HailMary888 I had the same thought. Like the organization was being run by certain Italian-American gentlemen.
You can lump a lot of insurance adjusters in that group too. There are many more than the 70 you caught here. As the holder of the policy, you have the choice to use any company you want to do your work. In most cases when your adjuster writes up his findings and says "our guys can start asap to get you damage repaired" is a tell that there's going to be a kickback to the adjuster. If you know an adjuster, drive by and see how they are living. You will be surprised. I'm a retired remodeling contractor of 35 years.
true but these were supposed to be public servants not in the private sector it just happpened in mass chsetts troopers took minor gifts for cdls not worth losing meverything for taht
@@rogerrosen2323 I gotcha. Public servents serve their own pockets.
The whole entire NYC contract bidding process is CORRUPTED!!! Back in the 1990's i had a small Floor maintenance business i was trying to get off the ground...I would bid on City offices to wax tile floors and shampoo the carpets...It was a nightmare to say the least...CORRUPTION AT BEST!!!
Greed has taken over America 😢
*self serving democrats
Bingo!
It’s always been here tbf
World
It's NYC. Why am I not surprised.🤷
NYCHA = New York Criminal Housing Association
😂
Kurt Russell Says 📢 Escape from NY 😅
Prison... and pay back the citizens money you stole.
It about time they are doing their job!!! 10 years??? Lots of people are hurting because of this!!!
This shit happens with NYS corrections prison contracts too. Don’t just stop with NYCHA keep going. And prosecute the contractors too.
They wonder why the quality of workers has dissipated over these years. This is just NY, it goes on all over the country. "Skilled labor is not Cheap and Cheap labor is not skilled." When a company has to have a meeting due to the quality of work they service, not hard to figure what the problem
is.
How embarrassing
Get some jail time, keep it moving.
Many property managers in NYC engage in unethical practices. They only work with contractors who pay them kickbacks, and they blacklist those who don't. This makes it very hard for honest companies to survive in the market. I have experienced this myself. I have had checks delayed, proposals ignored, and contracts terminated for not giving in to the extortion. I think the authorities should crack down on these management companies and hold them accountable. That's why I decided to educate building boards and owners on how to prevent property managers from taking advantage of them.
What? Corruption in our govt? Shocker!
Bribery in New York? When was the last time that happened?
" Pay for Play " - Hillary
I'd bet that a thorough investigation of all city departments would turn up much, much more corruption.
BTW, nobody outside of NYC knows what NYCHA is...
I had to google it I admit
@@DonnellOkafor-pw7zc thx! A real journalist would have mentioned that in the first sentence😅
I only knew because of the funny skits Stacy does impersonating them. 😅
This is the modern day mafia......
No. This is the communist way all day aka the Democrat way. Its this way in every single major city aka all Democrat strongholds. Couldn't get a godd*mn thing in soviet Russia without padding a corrupt government officials pocket...from the top right down to the clerks at the desks.
Now go nvestigate every other major city with no bid contracts. Hello
Future Senators and Congressional Representatives in the making.
No Bid Contract = Corruption
Corrupt government employees...imagine that. Oh wait, you don't have to because the corruption runs deep and it runs far.
Hundreds of years are going to get dished out... and I'm going to need a tissue after I see all of this crying myself...to clean up my joy 🤭
Same thing is going on in every single bureaucracy in America
When I saw a cash Jordan video about this housing crisis and how some people were on a waiting list for 8 years it made me think of two things. First of all obviously they have survived for the last 8 years so maybe they don't need to be on a list, but if somebody is on a list for that long that is clearly corruption. I said it on the comments and here we are less than a month later with a giant bust. Called it. 👍
Everything is a racket!😠
Hahaha.. corruption getting in every level...
We are destroyed.
They should all stop paying rent
and taxes for that matter
Disgusting what they did taking away help from people who need repairers and support
The love of money is the root of all evil. It's not just NY I'm pretty sure of that.
Nearly all blue pro union states
No. Money is NOT the only motivator. Some sleezy people just enjoy the thrill of breaking the law.
@@kentmusgrove5038 I'm aware of that, but in this case, money is the principal factor.
You are right money is a primary motivator, however the criminals who scare me the most are the ones who get a thrill out of doing the crime. The scariest people involved with crimes are minors. @@freedomofspeech361
Just shut the whole damn thing down.
Asking those who they didn't pick up to go ahead and turn yourself in before they find you out is crazy 😂 😂
What's this? Inner city leaders allowing for bribery and under the table contracts? So glad they caught this so early on! 😒😒hilarious.
I see them only focusing on the little fish! Why not look at the President and Congress members that do this on a grand scale.
When people complain about their housing repair needs ,NO ONE LISTENS UNTIL ITS TOO LATE… we all are one disaster away from being HOMELESS.
PHA-Philadelphia Housing Authority should be next on that list! The whole board is corrupt! They need to be investigated and audit; including HUD as well!
I can’t believe took them this long to figure that out.
Dont drop the soap
no different than hunter and joe, keep marching on to dc an do the right thing!!!
Well to be fair through their investments and partnerships with companies associated with the ccp the Bidens helped strengthen relations between Iran And China.
ha ha good. I have worked with NYCHA in the past. Now we just need the politicians to face the music for their corruption.
Politicians call it lobbying
Why does this not apply to politicians?
There are way more in every state. Hope they go after them too. Not too mention they give cushy gov jobs to their family and friends
This is all of the housing industry in some form or another. I worked for the largest non profit housing company in the country and when I raised questions they got mad. They get massive kickbacks on millions of dollar's in projects. I have seen it with my own eyes.
"Non" profits are a joke!
What a disgrace
When will they do the same to the MTA it’s overdue !
A massive CONSPIRACY? Say it ain't so Joe! I was told this is impossible.
Our government just found 70 new employees.
And the conditions are horrible...
These employees are why i moved out of NYC the rotten apple
Heroes huh? Welcome to New York
All government departments,use same system,
Some part$$ go to government employees too
Cause they are part of the scheme
Wake up everybody this is been going on forever God bless the world Jack from Maine
Mrs. the money in their pockets... We see how the country is going down in the city,corruption total......
This is just the tip of the iceberg 😂😂😂 This practice goes all the way to the top of US government, including the president of this country!!!
Just like their police dept!!!
Geez 10 years, it took you that long to figure that shit out
Wait a sec ..... Are they telling us there is corruption by government employees ??!! I'm shocked 😮
Good old mafia-style scheme.
Only our Politicians are allowed to do this.
Didn't the Gambino family have a similar construction scam?!
No prosecution agreement? So a bribe? Why is this legal?
Just the tip of the iceberg… just wait
Now charge all the thug politicians making billions in insider trading.
That,s very important!!
The walk of SHAME!
Wow,got the criminals! This will never happen in South Africa.The south African citizen is the crooked politician's gift that just keeps on giving.
The same in Los Angeles. Los Angeles is much corrupter. The problem is that nobody prosecutes them
Funny how all of a sudden this is a problem and they do something about it after knowing all these years. Maybe NYC dealing with a budget crunch might have something to do with it.
I’d bet NY is only cracking down because of the migrant crisis, knowing this has been happening but only now caring because of the budget squeeze
How many days before all charges are dropped?
They thought shit was sweet😂
Mayor Adam's "Chocolate City" seems to be well represented in this corruption bust.
Same thing was going on when I was growing up in NYC in the 1950s !
This is evidence illustrating how certain New York officials are engaging in unethical behavior, misappropriating funds meant for the public good. Despite their actions, they receive praise. However, justice should prevail, and those responsible should be held accountable for their wrongdoing.
A distraction, you look here...while we do this over here.
Outstanding !
$2M?? The Biden family is chuckling at such a small amount. 🤣🤣
It’d be your own people. I hope they can get back some of the money and actually make repairs…hopefully.
All of these buildings should now be investigated
Who are the federal agents? If it's a 3 letter agency you can't count on it.
Root out corruption for a strong country.
Crime really doesent pay😂
