Former Obama White House adviser Seth Andrew has been arrested and charged for allegedly stealing hundreds of thousands of dollars from a charter school network he was the founder of.

According to The Daily Wire:

The Department of Justice (DOJ) announced Andrews’s arrest in a Tuesday press release. Andrew is facing charges of wire fraud, money laundering, and making false statements to a financial institution related to a scheme stealing $218,005 from his network of charter schools.

“As alleged, Seth Andrew abused his position as a founder of a charter school network to steal from the very same schools he helped create,” Manhattan U.S. Attorney Audrey Strauss said in a statement. “Andrew is not only alleged to have stolen the schools’ money but also to have used the stolen funds to obtain a savings on a mortgage for a multimillion-dollar Manhattan apartment. Thanks to the FBI’s diligent work, Andrew now faces federal charges for his alleged scheme.”

FBI Assistant Director William F. Sweeney Jr. added: “Locking into the lowest interest rate when applying for a loan is certainly the objective of every home buyer, but when you don’t have the necessary funds to put down, and you steal the money from your former employer to make up the difference, saving money in interest is likely to be the least of your concerns. We allege today that Andrew did just that, and since the employer he stole from was a charter school organization, the money he took belonged to an institution serving school-aged children. Today Andrew himself is learning one of life’s most basic lessons – what doesn’t belong to you is not yours for the taking.”

Under former President Barack Obama, Andrew served as a top adviser to the secretary of Education, and later as a senior advisor in the White House Office of Educational Technology. The former White House advisor is married to CBS News anchor Lana Zak.

Andrew founded the network in 2005 and supposedly left the network in 2013.

Current CEO Natasha Trivers released the following statement: “Seth left our network in 2013… His alleged actions are a profound betrayal of all that we stand for and to you and your children, the scholars and families that we serve. To be clear, at no time did the alleged crimes pose any risk to our students, staff or operations in any way.”

    1. This is the only people that the demonRATs appoint, the cunning and deliberate crooks. And they use their powerful radical judges, who rule from their bench, and their media mobs to white wash their crimes, and use their voter fraud to get them elected. Crooks and traitors always protect and defend their fellow crooks, and to hell with citizens that they rob from and use for their careers of crime inside and outside of our government. However, once they get out of favor with the powerful elite, they let them swim or drawn, and if they have any evidence against any one of their elite, then they conveniently commit Arkanside.

      1. If I was a dirt bag I’ll bet your squeaky clean azz you would want a taste.your problem is you exploit people to stereotype groups of people.but can your squeaky clean azz do any better than this?

        1. My grand kids could do better. They’ve been brought up knowing the difference between right and wrong.

        2. A person has to do right by everyone especially those in a position to do there best. There is no excuse for this type of behavior. It’s a demturd behavior and also a Rinoturd. We the American ppl don’t need either. Just stick to the laws our forefathers gave us that was supposed to keep us free from the radical leftists that have taken over our gov … we have a right as a ppl to defend our constitution. Money isn’t the answer and it is the root of all that is evil and my friends you are seeing it today.

        3. Seems you know a lot about that. But no, no moral person does what you’d do. And by the way… if you want to know about stereotypical exploitation, stay in the party that routinely calls the majority of America “racist, white-supremacist, xenophobic, deplorable, religion clingers.” Who is pitting blacks against whites, rich against poor, illegals vs citizens, and a dozen other groups?

    1. Correct….. and there is NOTHING like a dose of truth and reality…. but the country has not suffered enough to see the truth. They cannot see the hell hole that the dems have planned for us. When the communist demonRAT party mafia and their mobs have successfully conquered our country and has fundamentally transformed our great nation into the dem’s communist utopia, the country will get a dose of truth, but it will be too late. One day the dem’s loyal voters will realize that they helped to make this hell on earth that also includes them.

      1. Right now, Biden’s busy buying as many votes as he can.

        We’ll see how many voters go along with Biden’s generous buys with taxpayers money, and are so willing to give up their future liberties, rights and freedoms in exchange for his extremely radical socialist agenda.

  1. He’s a crooked demoRat! I hope you aren’t surprised. That’s the demoRATic way. I think if every demoRatS had an investigation on any of them, they too would be arrested for fraud or any other financial illegal ventures. Of course, they will never be arrested because they are a demoRATS.

  2. ‘Charter ‘school” CATHOLIC indoctrination center. They cannot teach mathematics, trigonometry, history, geology, biology or the entire house of dogma cards would fall down by the knowledge of science. There never was a ‘jesus’. It can be proved by all of the sciences.

    1. The actual fact is, it’s the Dems who are again calling to dumb down our students. Last time the sought to remove teaching of Algebra being taught. More important in their list is teaching how terrible America has always been. 👎👎

  3. That’s impossible. Obama his own bad self said that there were no scandals in his administration.

    1. There were dozens of scandals that went down during Obama’s admin. Had the DNC’s protective liberal media reported on them, millions of voters would been made aware of how corrupt it was.

      Just pull up a ‘list of Obama’s scandals’ for yourselves,

      Learn for yourself how Obama lied to you again while the liberal msm covered for him. Just like they’re now doing for old Joe. Going after all who have exposed Hunter Biden. It’s more of their corruption, again being covered up by their oh-so untrustworthy liberal msm.

  4. Somebody should file charges and they arrest the “Ketchup Gigolo” John Kerry for selling secrets to Iran also

    1. LOVE it = Ketchup Gigolo….LOL…..But it allows him to fly around on Private Jets, leaving BIG Carbon footprints…..and the peasants have to PAY for it…..The REAL “white” PRIVILEDGED…..

  5. They are ALL just “fine” people……..NOT…..and we have KNOWN this ALL ALONG….Prison would be the RIGHT place for ALL of THEM, including o’bama…….

  6. NOT A SURPRISE!!!! ALL THE DEMS/FRAUDS ARE CRIMINAL…. IN ONE WAY OR THE ITHER!!!! THEY HAVE ALL HAD THEIR FRAUD SCHEMES…..HOW DO YOU THINK THEY BECAME WEALTHY….. NOT ON THEIR OWN!!!!! IF THAT WAS THE CASE THEY WOULD HAVE ALREADY BEEN WEALTHY BEFORE THEY TOOK THE JOBS ….!!!!!???????? THEY DID NOT BECOME INSTANTLY WEALTHY TAKING THE JOB OF A ADVISOR????? ETC;;

  7. I wonder who he crossed to be outed like some GOP’er making noise! Indict or Arkancide him, dealers choice!!

  8. Obama is the sleaze bag they need to arrest. He is one of the leaders of the swamp and he has been stealing from the American people for ages.

  9. Sad thing is hes part of the bile of the dem party so he wont be held accountable unless some good samaritan takes care of him.

  10. Yet another crook from the most Scandalous Admin in American History the Obozo Admin. I call it that because he was and still is a EGOTISTICAL MORONIC CLOWN.

  11. Another slimy creature. The swamp sure does need a good draining. Obama was and still is the poster boy for corruption. Biden and the rest of the dems are right there with him. Creeps, crooks creatures from the dark lagoon.

  12. How can they make the statement (& I’m summarizing) that no harm was done?? Any monies removed from education lessens what COULD have been invested in the education process. So, no matter the amount, it affected an area somewhere, somehow.

  13. Things are starting to happen, let’s hope other terrible things perpetrated by biden/harris communist regime, come out as well!!! Why isn’t hunter b. in jail??? He’s not even been indicted!!!! Why isn’t ANYONE in his, biden, regime dealing with their VERY OWN BORDER CATASTROPHE??? Not even mayorkas, biden has put in power some LOW LIFE, LOW CLASS, appointees, that are communist in thinking & acting. I KEEP PRAYING THAT SOON WE WILL HAVE GENUINE PATRIOTIC AMERICANS WHO PUT AMERICA FIRST!!!!

  14. It is time for the DOJ to do their JOB’S. One arrest is better than none, however there’s MUCH, MUCH MORE to be done!!! hunter biden, joe biden, harris,pelosi, schumer, aoc!!! How about lebron james, posted a photo of the policeman that SAVED a life, not only the photo but the “your next” and accountability word’s. HOW IS HE NOT ARRESTED, WHY IS HE ALLOWED TO STILL PLAY IN THE nba, WHY IS HE ALLOWED TO KEEP ALL THE LUCRATIVE ENDORSEMENTS .
    See the deceit, see the lies, see the hypocrisy, this is a government that DOES NOT CARE ABOUT AMERICA AND AMERICANS.

  15. After his conviction, he should do the max. Unless, of course, the mindless idiot in the white house pardons him. Stealing from an educational institution? Lower than whale sh it.

  16. Oh, you mean he was a DEMOCRAT on the take? Who’d a thunk it? Honestly, why is anyone surprised? Look at the Democrat executives that have enriched themselves shamelessly on the public dime. Swamp creatures!
