Why it's none other than Rachel Dolezal!
Thought for sure I was going to read she's running for POTUS. Why not? She's as unhinged as the rest of the Democratic contenders.

Nkechi Diallo, aka Rachel Dolezal, reaches settlement in welfare fraud case
Guess you could say she beat her... 'white privilege.'
Rachel Dolezal, the former NAACP leader who pretended to be black for years before being unmasked as white, has reached a settlement in a Washington state welfare fraud case. Dolezal (above in June 2018) was accused last year of illegally receiving nearly $9,000 in government aid between August 2015 and November 2017
The one-time president of the NAACP’s Spokane, Wash., chapter, Rachel Dolezal, reached a settlement with the state last month regarding her welfare fraud case.
Dolezal, who made headlines in 2015 after her claims of being African-American were debunked by her own parents, reached a diversion agreement on March 25 that required her to pay restitution and complete 120 hours of community service, her attorney confirmed to KXLY on Thursday.
“I think it’s a fair and equitable resolution of the matter,” Dolezal attorney Bevan Maxey said. “I don’t believe she tried to obtain benefits that she wasn’t entitled to. Needless to say, she’s been through a lot. I believe this is the appropriate way to solve it.”
Probably the first time in history a white person pretended to be black to get a job.

In June 2015, Dolezal's parents revealed to the media that she was born white but had been presenting herself as a black activist in Spokane. The former civil rights activist and African studies instructor has not been able to find regular employment since the bombshell reveal
Dolezal, 41, who changed her name to Nkechi Diallo in 2016, was arrested in May 2018 on charges of first-degree theft by welfare fraud, perjury in the second degree and false verification for public assistance, FOX 28 reported.

She allegedly collected close to $9,000 in state assistance from the period between August 2015 and November 2017, despite depositing more than $80,000 during that same time frame.
Her 2015 book, “In Full Color,” is what tipped investigators off that she had been cashing in on book sales, speaking engagements, and other sales.
Maxey told KXLY that if Dolezal agrees to the terms of the agreement, her charges will be dismissed.
“I think she’s anxious to move beyond this and move forward with a productive life. She’s a very intelligent and creative woman.”
"Very intelligent and creative woman?”
That's the new term for...She's a f-ing crook!
