A new study from a pair of think tanks has found that massive amounts of money, taxpayer dollars that are meant to combat the ongoing homelessness crisis, are in fact being used to further the left’s political goals.
This might explain why the homeless problem seems to get worse each year despite the fact that we throw billions of dollars at efforts to solve it.
FOX News reports:
A new study just exposed the corruption behind America’s homelessness crisis
For years, Americans have been told that “compassion” for the homeless meant writing ever-larger checks – more money, more programs and far less accountability.
Now, at last, we have some answers for why homelessness has exploded even amid a tripling of public spending.
A groundbreaking investigation, “Infiltrated” – backed by more than 50 pages of documentation from the Capital Research Center in cooperation with Discovery Institute – pulls back the curtain on a vast system of corruption. It reveals how billions in taxpayer funds intended to lift people out of homelessness have instead bankrolled radical activism and anti-American political agendas, betraying both the taxpayers who fund it and the homeless they were meant to help.
Despite unprecedented resources, homelessness in the United States now stands at its highest level in U.S. history. “Infiltrated” details how the nation’s most prominent “homeless advocacy” organizations have been weaponized against the very people they claim to serve – redirecting compassion into ideology and dependency into power.
The report offers some very specific examples:
Major philanthropic giants – Ford, Robert Wood Johnson and Gates Foundations – poured billions into Housing First and “equity” initiatives to promote ideology under the guise of helping the homeless.
Meanwhile, coalitions like Funders Together to End Homelessness funneled vast sums toward upstream political causes – including the promotion of reparations and anti-policing movements… all under the moral camouflage of addressing homelessness.
One of the obvious problems we have here is that there are a lot of people who make a very comfortable living ‘solving’ the homeless problem. What interest do these people have in eradicating the problem? That would end the gravy train.
John Nolte of Breitbart News commented on this:
Sadly, too many homeless advocates only take pride in ensuring people remain homeless. Why? Well, who wants to work themselves out of a job, especially a sweet-ass government or NGO job? Those aren’t real jobs. Real jobs require results.
But it’s not only that…
To these left-wing activists, the homeless are pawns in their political advocacy and activism. Keep them on the street; keep the money flowing, direct that money into electing Democrats.
It’s the same with the failed urban public schools and all this green energy nonsense.
Ending homelessness is going to require more common sense and tough love. The left’s supposedly compassionate approach will only encourage more of it. We need treatment centers for addicts and the mentally ill. The few who are truly just down on their luck should be given opportunities for work and housing.
Above all, public camping, such as on sidewalks, must be outlawed and the laws must be enforced. There is no other way to end this.
Finally, we need a national audit of all funds being spent on ending this problem. The left should not be allowed to use these funds to benefit politically.

Who would want to work themselves out of do nothing jobs?
A groundbreaking investigation – backed by more than 50 pages of documentation - from the Capital Research Center together with the Discovery Institute – pulls back the curtain on a vast system of liberal corruption.
It reveals how billions in tax dollars intended to lift people out of homelessness have instead bankrolled “radical liberal activism” and “anti-American political agendas,” betraying both the taxpayers who fund it and the homeless they were meant to help.
Note: Despite unprecedented tax dollars funding the problem,
homelessness in the United States now stands at its highest.
Grift is their gift.
The whole point is to perpetuate and grow problems so funding for programs must increase.
So if the “homeless” problem can’t bring in enough money you let criminals roam free, then claim there must be programs to rehabilitate them.
If criminals don’t commit enough crime then you throw the border open to create a “migrant” crisis. Now you claim a need to programs to address that problem.
At the heart of the matter is “We want money!”

Steal $200 Million, spread it around, and they hold cocktail parties in your honor after your honorary doctorate ceremony.
Umm, y’all bloody blind? CaCaLand went thru $24B on “homeless” programs with the only affect being very rich DNC members. Been doing this for 20 years, basically since the GOP gave up out thisaway.
If you subsidize anything, you will get more of it!
Wanna see my shocked face?
These are the buttheads who imported 20 million, starving socialist freeloaders illegally across our borders. The same bass turds knew we had 42 million snappers and their children who won’t have anything to eat because the illegal alien DemonRAT Leveragers need to eat first until they’re full so they can vote. Then the 42 and their hungry kids can get the leftovers from their RAT massas.
This is my shocked face...
Yea, but they pay the homeless to protest for them so there’s that....
Hiring illegal nann8es and illegal landscapers is another way they give less to the poor. But oh does it swell the pride.
We knew how to solve the problem over 160 years ago in California (which, at the time, had been civilized less than 20 years!). California was not a rich state at the time like it is today. But people found the money to care for the homeless and insane.
The GOP must pass legislation making it a criminal offense, a felony, to divert money allocated for one purpose and then stolen to fund another.
Otherwise it will never stop.
The left has been using the tax code as a slush fund for anti American nonsense for decades.
Water is wet
The Sky is blue
Democrats complain
Some call it leverage. Gotta learn to deal with it.
