Is All Blue Public Assistance Corrupt?

Implausible growth in Minnesota autism cases and treatment. 97% survival rates for hospice agencies in Los Angeles County, some of which are apparently sharing addresses with tire stores and burrito shops. 4/22/26 KIRO:

Mayor Katie Wilson of Seattle said all options are on the table after a forensic evaluation found $13 million in public funds are unaccounted for at the King County Regional Homelessness Authority.

According to the evaluation, the financial troubles do not end with the missing money.

A 43-page report outlines the findings of the investigation. It states in 2025, more cash was leaving the authority than coming in to the tune of more than $40 million.

The evaluation was ordered by the city and county in August in response to a series of financial issues. It covers the KCRHA from mid-2021 to mid-2025. Among the money mishandling it cites are $1.26 million in interest charges, $2.96 million paid to a staffing company and $6.4 million in unapproved overspending in 2025.

“I think we need to take this seriously,” Maritza Rivera of the Seattle City Council said. “We need to disband KCRHA.”

This is not just defrauding taxpayers; it is reducing aid for the needy, instead of the greedy.
