Audit: California Lost Track of $24 Billion Spent to Combat Homelessness
Breitbart | 04/12/2024 | Olivia RondeauCalifornia Gov. Gavin Newsom’s (D) administration lost track of the $24 billion in taxpayer funds it spent over the past five years in an attempt to curb the state’s homelessness crisis, an audit has found.
The California State Auditor’s report, released on April 9, detailed multiple “gaps” in accountability in regards to how the money was allocated during the 2018-2023 fiscal years. Lead auditor Grant Parks said the state “has not collected sufficient data” to prove that the billions of dollars improved the situation.
They lost it at the track…
I heard 2 million of it went to Stormy Daniels to stay quiet about her one night stand with Gov. Newsom.
Hey, contract out for two or three public toilet stalls and the bills mount up fast…
The High-Speed Rail System ain’t gonna pay for itself, you know…
Soon they’ll have the homeless population traveling non-stop on a loop from Modesto to Bakersfield…
Gotta make the State Pension System solvent, don’t ya?
Look…it’s only taxpayer provided money so really who cares? This is California, so all we gotta do is raise a tax or two and it can easily be replaced.

To the right people, capisce?
$24 billion? That’s just Newsom & Company going to a fancy restaurant with the new $20 an hour minimum wage. Let me know when we’re talking real money.
It went to Texas with the rest of the smart money.

I heard it was taken by a group of surfers, based on tan lines identified on security cam footage. Don’t worry though, a former college QB with a bum knee is on the case.

City urged to work harder to assess cost, impact
Over the past three years, San Jose has failed to consistently track the more than $300 million spent to fight homelessness and cannot adequately ensure that the money is helping to alleviate the crisis, according to a much-anticipated state audit.
The financial audit, released this week by the California State Auditor, also found that San Jose lacks clear goals for its homelessness programs and has no cohesive plan for building the affordable housing needed for its estimated 6,340 homeless residents.
“The biggest conclusion that the auditors came back with is that there’s just inadequate transparency, data and information available,” said State Sen. Dave Cortese, a Democrat representing San Jose, who requested the audit in 2022 after touring a large city encampment.
The 115-page report, which comes as public frustration continues to mount over city officials’ struggle to manage the crisis, also examined San Diego’s homelessness efforts and highlighted similar findings.
