California’s $45 Billion Meltdown: LAUSD on the Brink | The Morning Report with Willie Lawson
In today’s explosive Morning Report, Willie Lawson exposes the fiscal time bomb ticking beneath California’s shiny surface—and why the Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD) may be ground zero when it goes off. Governor Gavin Newsom and the Democrat supermajority in Sacramento have driven the state into a staggering $45 billion deficit, blowing through a historic surplus with reckless spending, pandemic windfalls, and permanent program expansions. From climate wish lists to free health care for illegal immigrants, they’ve governed like the money would never run out. But it has. Zooming in on LAUSD, the largest school district in the state—and the second-largest in the nation—Willie breaks down how district leaders “got drunk” on $5+ billion in COVID relief, used it to hire thousands of permanent staff, and are now scrambling to avoid layoffs by draining reserves and delaying cuts. The result? A nearly $3 billion deficit this year alone. Meanwhile, union demands grow louder, activist programs expand, and California’s leaders remain silent as schools edge toward collapse. This isn’t just about bad math—it’s about bad priorities, broken leadership, and a refusal to face financial reality. 🔥 Don’t miss this deep-dive into how progressive policies are setting fire to public education—and what taxpayers need to know before the next election. 📲 Subscribe now to FightBack Media on YouTube
