TO SHARE THIS PAGE. Brett Favre is facing fraud allegations and SiriusXM has taken the step of placing his show on hold. The former football player has been hosting the show _The SiriusXM
Blitz With Brett Favre and Bruce Murray _since 2018 and last aired on September 13. The Mississippi Department of Human Services sued the retired NFL quarterback along with three former
wrestlers and businesses in an effort to recover “misspent welfare dollars” that were supposed to people in need, according to ESPN. The lawsuit claims the defendants “squandered” more than
$20 million from the program Temporary Assistance for Needy Families. According to recent text messages that came to light, Favre, Mississippi Gov. Phil Bryant, the former executive director
of the Mississippi Department of Human Resources John Davis and Nancy New, allegedly worked to divert funds from the welfare program to fund a volleyball stadium at the University of
Southern Mississippi. Davis recently pled guilty to charges of embezzlement and conspiring to defraud. WATCH ON DEADLINE Favre has denied doing anything wrong but for now, his SiriusXM show
has been put on pause. NBC Sports also reports that his weekly appearances on ESPN Milwaukee have also been suspended. 11 Comments JavaScript is required to load the comments. MARKETPLACE
