They started asking questions about it and he shut that shyt down. He is not trying to go to jail like Kwame. LOL Acting like he didn't know who was funding it. If they find out he did, PERJURY. But it is interesting he shut it down so quick.
How was the NERD Fund money spent?

How was the NERD Fund money spent?
- Paying for the upscale condo rented at the Westin Book Cadillac by Detroit Emergency Manager Kevyn Orr, as well as other expenses of Orr's. The condo is rented at a price of $4,200 per month; the fund also paid for travel expenses for Orr to see his family, which resides in Maryland. Wurfel told the Detroit Free Press that one of the fund's stated purposes is to offset the cost of governance. Orr's salary is $275,000.
“Given the financial straits of the city, the limited resources of the state, and the very big and challenging job that Kevyn was hired to do, it was deemed appropriate and necessary to help save taxpayer dollars,” Wurfel said.
- $130,638 spent on a security system and new furniture for the state-owned residences used by Gov. Snyder, according to the Detroit Free Press.
- $100,000 in consulting fees to MI Partners LLC. Gov. Snyder is the sole client of the consulting firm run by Rich Baird, who Gov. Snyder calls his"transformation manager," according to the Detroit News. Baird, a Snyder adviser who was the architect of the governor's successful campaign team, retired as a global partner from PricewaterhouseCoopers. Baird was appointed a state employee on Wednesday, according to the Detroit News. He will take home an annual salary of $140,000.
- Rich DiBartolomeo was Snyder's deputy campaign manager and director of finance. He was paid $48,366 for 10 hours of weekly work as Assistant Secretary and Treasurer of the NERD fund (the 501 (c)4's only paid employee of 2011.) At the same time, he was also collecting a salary from Gov. Snyder's campaign committee, according to Citizensforethics.org. He left both positions in June 2012 for another government job: a $115,000-a-year position as the investment administrator for the Michigan Treasury Department (which manages cities and school districts in financial emergencies).
- $522,866, explained only as spending “for the promotion of civic action and social welfare by promoting the common good and general welfare of the residents of, and visitors to, the state of Michigan," the Detroit Free Press reported.
