Black Democrats (well, MOST Democrats, not just black Democrats) go into politics for one reason only; to get inside the system where they can use other peoples' money to enrich themselves and their lifestyle at taxpayers' expense.
Or, I may be wrong. But I'm probably not.
They must have gotten into the teaching bidness to learn how to steal more on a bigger scale.
From the article:
“In a city run by Democrats for years, under the influence of Democratic policies for years, and having been bankrupted by Democrats and Democratic policies, the only thing that should be surprising here is that we didn’t see this sooner…”

Ellen Degeneres had donated 500K to at least one DPS “skoo” and it went straight into the toilet.
This is chicken feed to what the Democrats do to the taxpayers. I’ve described it before in previous posts.
Procedure: Dream up some dubiously necessary project that requires public funding. Push it through legislature. Get the funding approved by the legislature, and once the funding is approved have your favorite contractors, vendors in place, and get the money out there so it can be picked off in cost overruns, and sleight-of-hand without a trace.
If I missed something, just add it on.
The money is returned to the politicians in various ways, but primarily in campaign contributions, as well the party always gets their share.
Jeb Bush was paid bribes. He has gotten millions from Pearson publishing.
