This is egregious even by deep south Republican standards.
TL;DR? Mississippi elected officials diverted almost a hundred million dollars of TANF (Welfare) funds to a couple of shady non-profits. These non-profits distributed the money to friends, family members, business associates, lobbyists, Brett Favre, and The Million Dollar Man Ted DiBiase.
Meanwhile, "A ThinkProgress article found that in 2016, only 167 of the 11,700 Mississippi families who applied for a TANF payment were approved."
You really can't make this shit up...
