    LA homeless services CEO spent millions on luxury lifestyle, authorities say | AP News



    This is why democrats are obsessed with NGO's and nonprofits --- it's how they do business. If you deny them money, they'll claim you don't care about the homeless. But as every BLM leader has shown us, it's about the grift to personally enrich these leaders while never attempting to fix the problems (or having the ability to).

    While fraud happens everywhere, for the first time in decades, fraudsters in blue states are being prosecuted. The lack of oversight explains how brazen their attempts have been, when someone who's never held a job can live in a 7m house , own properties all over the world and mingle with the wealthy muslims of Beverly Hills.

    Naive liberals like @B-Bob and @Amiga eat it up every time.

    Uh, ... strawman much?

    The homeless industry does have a bunch of "non profits" that depend on the continuation of homelessness. It is sad and part of the problem and incredibly well known for Californians, like me, who pay attention.

    Okay, I'll tag you on something stupid, if that's what we're doing. But I'll also add your chump ass to ignore. Not sure why I hadn't done that earlier. Bye.

    Do you think the proposed solution of LA officials taking control of billions in homeless spending is the answer? Trading out 1 corrupt entity for another corrupt entity?

    The best thing we can do with government spending is take all the bureaucrats out of it -- not add more bureaucrats and organizations. Have a couple college kids (not as entrenched in the system) use a spreadsheet that details where every dollar goes and annually audit it. Just keep auditing relentlessly. You'll see problems disappear real fast when money goes towards people instead of bureaucrats.

    His response is to do what is in the best interests of his party masters, no matter how bad it gets for poor and middle-class Americans.

    Its hilarious how brainwashed and sincerely dumb you are. Not a single fraud case has been brought against somolians since the viral YouTube video. Every single prosecution that the doj is showing off in the state happened under Biden.

    You have zero evidence that the Biden doj ignored fraud in blue states. We do have real evidence that the Trump doj is ignoring fraud in red states



    The funniest thing about these people is they have zero issue when their cult leader actually ignores fraud in red states cuz it doesn't align with their propoganda

    Democrats increased the number of middle managers at the City of San Diego by 461% from 70 in 2015 to 373 today

    These are government positions paid for by taxpayers for things like “homelessness, climate change, sustainability and more”

    “The number of middle managers at the city of San Diego has increased by 461% since 2015, while the city's population increased by just 1%.


    Yup, @B-Bob . This is it. This is the problem. Do you have the courage to speak out against it?

    I like how these woke people on Clutchfans ignore how insanely bad the homeless crisis is in California.
    This is one of the biggest topics for their debate

    unless they address drugs and mental illnesses
    It will NEVER get better

    It's a repeated pattern of thinking that leads to the brazeness of fraud we see over and over again --

    "Fraud tourists" traveled to Minnesota due to ease of fraud

    Democrats find a problem -
    throw bureacrats and middle men at it
    demand more and more funding and tax dollars
    nothing gets done
    leaders enriched and laugh at how easy it is to systematically defraud

    I'm helping here

    Do those kids also get to audit the people at the very top, or just the “middle men”?

    And who checks that the kids aren’t just redirecting funds away from people who need it to enrich those who don’t?

    I'm glad to hear they are pursuing a prosecution. But the only support for this being the democrats' fault is a single quote from First Assistant United States Attorney Bill Essayli saying so. That is Essayli's title because he was appointed US Attorney by Trump but the Senate would not confirm him, so he was the Acting US Attorney for 4 months and thereafter disqualified from operating with that title, but Trump still will not nominate someone acceptable. Because he operates in California, Essayli is a useful vassal who can use the office to try to make Newsom look bad, as he attempts to do here. His criticism of Newsom and the California government, in addition to being hyperbolic (vetting and oversight were not "zero"), is unprofessional for a federal prosecutor and a violation of the oft-cited but completely ineffective Hatch Act. He is there as a political hatchet man and you're just nodding along.

    I don't understand what you're even proposing here. You like neither NGOs nor government bureaucrats, so you think billions of dollars should be managed by children who haven't even finished an accounting (hopefully) degree? What are you on?

    it's embarassing how strosb4bros / circlethedrain is publicizing his willful ignorance about Calif
    Having been neuterred, politically, by Newsom, Essayli has opted be an useful idiot to the 2nd power.

    for the benefit of the out-of-stater who wants to bash Newsom, at least use a source that has some creditability;

    instead of the useful idiot Essayli, use the top 2 GOP candidates for Gov
