California has become the most corrupt state in the nation, usurping Illinois, New York, and Pennsylvania when it comes to kickbacks and political pay-to-play schemes. A recent thread on X demonstrates one of the various ways the Democrat hellhole is potentially laundering taxpayer funds, this time through the “homelessness” debacle.
X user @5149jamesli uncovered a huge scandal that we discussed on today’s episode of The JD Rucker Show.
🚨 I may have uncovered a MASSIVE scandal in CA.
Gavin Newsom claims $24B for homelessness went "missing".
Well, I found evidence of CA officials possibly, allegedly, embezzling hundreds of millions, if not billions of dollars through a sketchy Cayman Islands group! 🧐

3/ What kinds of "unprecedented investments" you might ask?
Well, this is where things start to get sketchy.
Enter Todd Gloria, the Mayor of San Diego, who has been on a tear — making housing deal after housing deal — which he claims will "address homelessness." pic.twitter.com/YVmJj4EOJn

5/ But here is where things gets even sketchier.
There is one investment group that pops up over and over again in all these city housing deals — the Chelsea Investment Corporation. pic.twitter.com/yOZP4hY1U3

7/ You ready for a real doozy?
Property records of their HQ address shows:
– 2016: Sold for $3.5M, $3.15M financed.
– 2023: Another transaction for an "undisclosed price," but $68M financed.The kicker, the lender is the SD Housing Authority.
Not suspicious at all… 🤨 pic.twitter.com/KFhh7rrYoB

9/ One thing we do know: When Todd Gloria the chair of the San Diego's Budget and Finance Committee, records show the the Founder and then CEO of Chelsea Investment Corp. was a major donor to Gloria's campaign.
Quid Pro Quo? 🤔 pic.twitter.com/IuPqoATxPs

11/ Final thoughts:
1) This is just the tip of the iceberg in the search for billions of "missing" dollars.
2) Legacy media have failed — it’s up to independent journalists to uncover the truth.
Big thanks to @AssyrianAngel28 and @Melissa_in_CA for their help!

We’ll hopefully get some updates as soon as possible.
Great job surfacing this, James Li!

At Last, a Company With Integrity in the Gold IRA Industry
For several years, I’ve been vetting out precious metals companies in search of the best. I believe in gold and silver but it’s hard to find integrity in the Gold IRA industry. The vast majority operate with shady tactics and gigantic spreads that take advantage of Americans who simply want to protect their life’s savings.
I’ve found a handful that I like and I’ve worked with some of them. By no means would I “unrecommend” them because, again, I vetted them out and found them to be above the fold. Unfortunately, it isn’t hard to be better than the rest when the rest are so darn awful.
After years of searching, I finally found a company that truly operates with integrity. Augusta Precious Metals has three important attributes that set them far above the competition:
- Non-Commissioned Sales Team: I cannot stress how important and unique this is. With just about every other company in the Gold IRA industry, the sales teams make commission from every account they open. This means they steer their clients toward the gold and silver products with the highest commission. With Augusta Precious Metals, the team is solely focused on putting the best gold and silver for their clients into their IRA. They get paid to serve the best interests of the Gold IRA client, NOT their own commission pay.
- Incredibly Low Fees: Most Americans would be shocked if they knew the spread other Gold IRA companies charge. Augusta charges just 5% versus up to 45% elsewhere.
- No Pressure, No Gimmicks: There’s an understanding among most in the Gold IRA industry that fear and pressure is the way to go. Augusta Precious Metals takes a sober approach when working with clients because they hold integrity in the highest possible regard. This is why they don’t offer gimmicks like “free” or “bonus” silver. It’s also why they do not apply pressure tactics to get quick sales. Their educational and transparent approach to doing business is exceedingly rare in the Gold IRA industry.
