Compton residents are outraged after the City Council illegally canceled its meeting instead of convening and adjourning as required by the City Charter. The move appears to shield Councilmember Spicer and the City Manager from scrutiny over thousands in questionable credit-card charges. Citizens demand transparency, the release of the full credit-card report, and accountability from all officials involved.
California spent $26B on homelessness, creating ~15,000 Project Homekey units for 15–20K people, yet 187,000 remain homeless. Oversight is weak: audits show poor tracking, inflated costs ($238K/unit), and limited recoveries. Two criminal cases exist, but billions remain unaccounted. Fragmented funding enables shady deals. AI-driven centralized oversight and modular housing could vastly improve efficiency and accountability.
