The Con at the Heart of the Blue State Model
Be honest—this is ridiculous.
The entire rotten structure of the Left’s modern governing model is being exposed.
Several stories in the last few weeks have uncovered how much of the American political system, in Democrat-dominated cities and states in particular, has been twisted to serve the interests of the Left and its wards rather than the American people.
The widespread Somali fraud occurring in Minnesota has proven to be, as many suspected, just the tip of the iceberg.
Last week, CBS News reported that Los Angeles has become “ground zero” for hospice fraud. It analyzed the “records for every hospice operating” in LA and found evidence suggesting widespread fraud is taking place.
CBS noted that the California state auditor sounded the alarm three years ago that “Los Angeles County had seen a 1,500% increase in hospice companies since 2010—more than six times the national average relative to its elderly population.”
The report included “notable red flags,” including many hospices being located in the same building, low patient counts, excessive billing, and many patients being discharged despite it being end-of-life care.
California authorities said that they terminated the licenses of 280 hospices, but CBS reported that the problem continues to be out of control.
“The CBS News analysis reveals that over 700 of the roughly 1,800 hospices in LA County, trigger multiple red flags for fraud as defined by the state,” the news outlet reported.
I’m pleasantly surprised that CBS even decided to do this. Usually, this kind of investigative work requires the resources and gumption of a random YouTuber with a camera and some time on his hands.
There needs to be accountability. There needs to be prosecutions.
After Nick’s reporting in Minnesota, you would think legacy media outlets would have conducted simple investigations like this in other states to confirm whether similar fraud was occurring. But the thought never…

As usual, CBS couldn’t help but say that Republicans have “seized” on this issue to hurt Gov. Gavin Newsom. It noted that hospice fraud is a nationwide problem, and it is.
But the issue, along with various other astounding pillagings of the public purse, has been particularly acute in places inclined to give copious amounts of money to open-ended social projects with no questions asked. That’s basically anywhere Democrats have a majority, and the Left is free to do as it pleases.
The New York Post reported Monday that New York City “spent roughly $81K per person on homeless services last year.” The Post noted that this sum is equivalent to the city’s “median household income as of the 2024 US Census—$81,228 annually.”
That number has surged in the last half decade.
“Spending on the city’s Department of Homeless Services’ Street Homeless Solutions division more than tripled over the last six years, from $102 million in 2019—or about $28,000 per ‘unsheltered homeless person,’ according to the report from the state comptroller’s office,” the Post reported.
Despite this remarkable amount of homelessness spending, homelessness is not on the decline. Far from it. The city’s …
