EXCLUSIVE: A top Trump agency is cutting off funding to the Los Angeles agency responsible for coordinating billions in homelessness spending after accusing it of "obvious fraud," "wanton mismanagement" and repeated failures to safeguard taxpayer dollars, Fox News Digital has learned.
The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), which is a member of the White House fraud task force led by Vice President JD Vance, is immediately suspending the Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority's (LAHSA) federal funding while HUD’s inspector general investigates potential offenses by the agency and its leadership, according to a letter sent to LAHSA's board chair Wendy Greuel and its CEO Gita O'Neill, which was obtained and reviewed by Fox News Digital.
The letter detailed conflicts of interest, financial mismanagement, fraud, lack of oversight, and more from the homelessness agency, which has faced efforts by the city and county to take it over.
The move puts one of the country’s biggest homelessness bureaucracies under direct federal scrutiny after years of criticism that billions have gone into homelessness programs in Los Angeles while the crisis remains entrenched on the streets. LAHSA receives funding at the city, county, state and federal level, with the group getting nearly $1 billion from just the federal government since 2021, according to HUD.

Wait does that mean that hobos dont get 2 bucks to vote for Bass anymore LOL
Everyone knows the money goes into NewSCUM and Bass’s pockets, NONE of the money actually helps the homeless get HELP..the homeless dont need money they need mental HELP, drug help, not cash to keep them quiet so they can continue pissing on the sidewalk
A tax-funded Los Angeles agency supposedly coordinating
$billions in homelessness spending was cut off by the feds:
<><>accused of “obvious fraud,”
<><>”wanton mismanagement”
<><>and repeated failures to safeguard tax dollars.
They shouldn’t be allowed to get any money going forward until they payback what they allowed to go out in fraud.
“LAHSA’s failures have been so severe and pervasive that Los Angeles County has withdrawn its funding for the agency, and the City of Los Angeles is considering doing so as well.
“Los Angeles didn’t care about helping the homeless, but the Trump Administration does,” Ferguson told Fox News Digital. “

Billions and billions of dollars, yet the number of homeless is skyrocketing.
Who got the billions??
This is real fraud, historic fraud. But will anyone be held accountable? Doubtful.
How are the homeless going to get their crack pipes and needles?
The ONLY thing that the Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority's (LAHSA) does is create MORE homeless. If they ever reduced or ended homeless, their mission would end and a slew of highly paid DEI execs would have to go find real work...which they couldn't do because they have no real-world marketable skills.
