It started last evening on a Telegram account about OASIS Outback, LLC (Outback bar, restaurant, and sporting goods store). There's an Oasis Outback in Uvalde at 2900 East Main Street. Oasis Outback apparently lent money to Ramos before selling him weapons.
Oasis Outback received substantial funding from the Small Business Administration in the amount of $342,084. Oasis Outback is also "WRK, Inc." (shell company)? and it appears that federal contractors are implicated as duplicate loans appear to constitute fraud - exorbitant flows of federal funds to various entities, including billions to make F16 aircraft.
I remember our previous OP from once-upon-a-time Voat who kept telling us to look for the root cause of evil in Racine, WI, the county seat of Racine County, population 76,893. Perhaps we should add to the list Uvalde, TX, county seat of Uvalde County, population 15,217.
Here is the link. (the money part begins in the final segment of the article). https://politicalmoonshine.com/2022/05/27/everything-is-wrong-nothing-is-right-and-uvalde-is-the-latest-perfect-example/
I went to the article and went right to very the last image --- amazingly huge numbers.
So, I went to the usaspending.gov site myself, and you only see these huge numbers if you don't choose any filters.
That means the 'huge numbers' are total spending, and not for Uvalde. He typed the city into the sidebar, but he never added the filter.
That's either stupid, or deceptive.
Either way, it's silly to trust (or even read) the rest of the article when this part is off by orders of magnitude.
Will you share the filters you used and/or show us the results, and if no further research is required then this is a lame duck going nowhere, the entire subject should be put to rest if the answer to the title of my post is a flat out "No," then the post should be deleted.
Start at www.usaspending.gov
Hit 'Start Searching Awards'
In the side bar, check 'FY 2022' (as per the article), then
Click on Location, select United States, then Texas, then type 'uvalde' in city and wait for the site to offer 'UVALDE, TX' - then click on that. (as per the article)
Then click 'Add Filter' (this is what was not done for the article).
Scroll down a bit and hit 'Submit Search'
With the filter, the numbers are still 'in the millions', but not the 'tens of billions' that was shown in the article.
You can see for yourself that the 'huge numbers' can be shown while 'Texas' and 'Uvalde' (etc) are showing in the sidebar. All you need to do is not add the filter.
This is the kind of stuff that keeps this place rooted in truth. Thanks Anon!
You're welcome.
If there are financial misdeeds, let them be found - but we need to be accurate.
Thank you!
You're welcome.
Okay, then, if the money isn't billions or trillions but millions, there still seems to be an unusual, suspicious, and problematic issue afoot in Uvalde. I cannot edit my title, and more digging is perhaps needed, but if not, I place this in the hands of our trustworthy Mods to decide. Again, thanks, for your input.
