RedState:
What is it with Los Angeles? Is it something in the water? The once-and-former City of Angels seems to dash from scandal to scandal, from crisis to crisis. From the Pacific Palisades fire, which happened while Mayor Karen Bass was hanging out in Ghana (why Ghana? What possible purpose could the Mayor of Los Angeles have in visiting Ghana?), to the city’s ever-more-expansive homeless encampments, this once-glamorous city is suffering badly.
Some city officials seem to want to cash in while they can. On Friday, we learned that 11 more Los Angeles city employees were busted for their involvement in a COVID-era pandemic unemployment fraud scheme, to the tune of over $700,000. more
LA does not move from scandal to scandal or crisis to crisis. That city is in a perpetual mode on both.
LA city employees have to eat too.
