  1. And yet they can’t find enough money to pay teachers

  2. You should run for office marine. We need more public servants with integrity.

  3. I want my kids to have a mother like this

  4. THANK YOU FROM THE REAL AMERICA

  5. $40 million of taxpayers money goes directly into her bank account. Looks like shes set for the rest of her life while the company still robs the taxpayers of hundreds of millions of dollars. Must be nice!

  6. Years later they basically got a settlement where they paid less than they stole and nobody went to jail.

    She is also dumb for saying shes giving most of her money to her church.

  7. Good for her. All good military officers set the example. Its refreshing to know that these people still exist. As for her windfall, the tax payers got much more than she did. We all won.

  8. So, you are telling us Booz Allen Hamilton has no problem stealing money from the US government and therefore, the taxpayers and no one goes to jail or admits no wrongdoing while only having to pay a $377 million settlement, only in America, the better question is, how much money did they actually wrongly bill the US government

  9. I CRAVE… those fleeting, few moments when I get to feel that pride to be American. Americans like this make me so proud – GO GET EM! 💪

  10. "Give much of it to her church"…🤦‍♀️🤦🏼

  11. How nice they waited 3 years, she said a 100 mill a year, so 300 something is nothing, THEN the taxpayers still paid for it, How lovely

  12. Now let's blow up the medical insurance bleeding.

  13. Most wealthy people and corporations in America know that it's usually worth the risk to commit fraud and break the law in other ways because if they do get caught, there's usually no or very minimal consequences for them. That's why there's so much corruption in America.

  14. took 7years!!! how much is 7 years of interest on $40 mill

  15. Just imagine how many companies are allowed to continuously rip us tax payers off. We keep making new laws to prevent this kind of thing but won’t enforce the basic and simple rules that are already in place. None of her colleagues took the matter seriously because they are likely beneficiaries of the scam.

  16. "She'll give much of it to her church"

    😩🤦

  17. Whenever I see such a brave whistleblower takes on big company or government, I am no less marvelled at bravery of the former than shocked by the greed and unscrupulousness of the latter.

  18. Waste it by giving the $ to the church. Disgusting.

  19. More oversight please

  20. Somebodies father died and the worst hospitality you could of shown her was making her sleep with rats

  21. What a great use of American taxpayer dollars. Amazingly the US government always finds more ways to burn military funds and tax the working class, yet can't find money for Universal healthcare for all and building affordable homes.

  22. Wow! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
