Big update to the fraud we discussed in this video. The largest homeless NGO in LA, Weingart Center is under FEDERAL investigation and the court just REJECTED all of Weingart's attempts to dismiss the fraud and waste claims regarding their shady property deal in Cheviot Hills.
What happened? Karen Bass and Nithya Raman laundered YOUR tax dollars through the Weingart NGO to pay 2x cost on a homeless housing project from a scammer middleman; a $16M flip, for a dubious homeless project, all while evicting the seniors who lived there.
Big hat tip to Samantha Nussbaum for doing the leg work on this case and bringing some accountability to the rampant fraud in LA's Homeless Industrial Complex. Are you starting to see how the scams work?

I just want to pay for a product one time (and only one time), know that it’s going to work flawlessly, press 0 to speak to an operator if I need help, and otherwise be left alone and treated with some small measure of human dignity, if that’s not too much to ask anymore.
“AOC is one of the characters on the show… so is Marjorie Taylor Greene, right? And Trump is one of the major characters on the show.”
@waitbutwhy argues that cable news isn’t showing us the news. They’re airing a political reality show.
