Disgraced Former Rep. Katie Hill Resurfaces in Another Homeless NonProfit Grift

Former Rep. Katie Hill, the California Democrat who resigned following her très bizarre multi-layered sex scandal with a younger female congressional staffer, who then presented herself as the victim of harassment, bullying, and revenge porn in a New York Times op-ed, is back. She’s not back in Congress, but back to her pre-Congress homeless nonprofit grift.

Allegations and photos emerged of Rep. Katie Hill and her husband involved in a “throuple” threesome relationship with a young congressional staffer in 2019. Hill also had allegedly been involved in a sexual relationship for a year with her finance director, RedState reported.

She resigned after the “throuple” relationship was exposed, along with photos of Hill posing naked with a tattoo of what appears to be a Nazi-era Iron Cross on her bikini line, while smoking a bong and making out with her young female aide.

It’s not uncommon for predators to play the victim when cornered. But Katie Hill’s specific predatory behavior with a young staffer is exactly what launched the #MeToo movement in California’s Legislature. This is a textbook #MeToo moment, yet feminists, who so loudly screeched charges of “sexual harassment” and “abuse” when male lawmakers preyed on younger female staffers, were silent about Hill’s predations.

The Los Angeles Times did a glowing piece Tuesday on former Rep. Katie Hill, and “the way she has resurrected her life and career.”

Cue Celine Dion’s My Heart Will Go On.

“She’s remarried to a new partner, after divorcing the husband she accused of “smearing” her with the naked photo dump. Her son, born in what felt like a “miracle,” given that she has only one ovary, soon will turn 4. And Hill just marked one year heading a Pasadena homeless services agency, which has been hailed as a lifeline by many people displaced by January’s fire in Altadena.”

Redemption is available to everyone, but there is usually some atonement involved.

The Wall Street Apes says on X:

California Congresswoman who was forced to resign is back AS A HOMELESS NGO CEO ‌ She also was Executive Director of a $160 million homeless NGO that got $17 million for a Venice Beach project that HOUSED ZERO PEOPLE ‌@5149jamesli

“According to their own statistics, it showed that they only helped 35 people exit homelessness in one year, which is about 3% of the homeless people that passed through its doors ‌ — After a few rough years, Katie is making a comeback as the new CEO of a homeless organization called Union Station Homeless Services. But interestingly, not only did she get that job, she was also at the same time appointed to the LA Homeless Services Authority, another monstrously fraudulent agency.

Hill’s latest homeless non-profit received just shy of $40 million in grants and contributions in 2023, according to their IRS 990s, the most recent report available.

Of that $39 Million and change, $30,082,157 was government grants – taxpayer funding.

Let that sink in.

$818,188 was from fundraising.

Yet, “We work to end homeless through housing” is the tag line for Ms. Hill’s non-profit. Former President Barack Obama’s “Housing First” mandate has been an abject failure for the homeless, but a windfall for non-profits.

And amazingly, the Union Station Homeless Services non-profit managed to zero-out their income on expenses:

If this isn’t a homeless NGO grift, I am British royalty.

And look at that non-profit income and expenses: $39,830,491 in income, and $39,129,156 in expenses. Amazing – they spend what they make.

I trust Katie Hill as much as I trust gas station sushi.

In a nation built on free enterprise and personal responsibility, the abuse of nonprofit organizations and behest contributions by political elites like California Governor Gavin Newsom represents a betrayal of American values, Globe contributor Richie Greenberg and I wrote in March in, “The Left’s Nonprofit Shadow Campaign Fund.”

California’s one-party rule ensures the powerful protect their own, and they do it with taxpayer funding.

Nonprofits, with their tax-exempt status and loose oversight, have become a playground for political insiders. Take Newsom’s wife, Jennifer Siebel Newsom, and her outfit, The Representation Project.“While her husband attends to state business, Siebel Newsom engages in her passion: advancing ‘gender justice’ through her charitable nonprofit The Representation Project, Open the Books reported. According to tax documents the organization is ‘committed to building a thriving and inclusive society through films, education, and social activism.’”

Jennifer Siebel Newsom solicited state vendors and the governor’s campaign donors for large gifts to her charity, The Representation Project. Since 2011, this supposed gender-justice charity has raked in over $800,000 from corporate giants like PG&E, AT&T, and Comcast—firms with billions at stake in California’s regulatory landscape. Siebel Newsom pocketed $2.3 million in salary over those years, pulling six-figure paychecks while her husband climbed from lieutenant governor to governor. These donors aren’t philanthropists; they’re players in a game where cash flows to the governor’s family, and favors—like lax utility oversight or cushy state contracts—flow back. It’s cronyism dressed up as compassion.”

The Los Angeles Times continues with Katie Hill’s comeback:

“Fortunately for Hill, her work in homeless services had left an impression of her as someone who employed ‘logic, reason, critical thinking and honest, authentic dialog,’ said Veronica Lewis, who hired her as a top administrator at HOPICS, which serves South L.A. County, after Hill left Congress.

‘Those qualities impressed the board at Union Station, the Pasadena agency Hill took over last December.”

Notably, the LA Times didn’t report on Hill’s involvement with HOPICS, where she served as the deputy director of operations in 2023. CalMatters reported that HOPICS received $140 million in government funding over the past three years through its rapid re-housing program, but “more than 300 clients were evicted after HOPICS ignored eviction warnings, did not vet the middlemen who rented properties to those clients and had too many clients for too few case managers.”

It appears Katie Hill has a good PR rep. Look at headlines from this week:

• Katie Hill’s Resurgence in the Homeless Sector: From Scandal to CEO
• Former politician Katie Hill now serves the homeless
• Ex-Congresswoman Katie Hill has found a ‘second chance’
• Former member of Congress reemerges as advocate for homeless

Michelle Mears addressed Hill’s previous homeless non-profit work, for the Globe in 2019:

“The homeless crisis appears to be manufactured for groups and people to profit through social programs and government positions. Those claiming to be able to fix the crisis continue to hold their hands out for state and federal funds – placing their value on how much public funding they can raise and spread around to campaign donors instead of results.”

“According to tax returns obtained by the California Globe, in 2016, Hill who was then working for Path, (People Assisting The Homeless)  a non-profit that helped pass Measure H was making $160k a year. In 2017, Hill was given a substantial raise that increased her salary to $174k a year. Despite a six-figure salary homelessness grew under Hill’s tenure.”

Hill worked for PATH from 2010 to 2017 and used her platform of helping the homeless get elected into Congress despite the state’s failed track record of success with that issue.

Hill received close to $9 million in campaign funding when she ran for Congress in 2018, compared to approximately $1.6 million received by long term incumbent Maxine Waters. Interestingly, more than $528,000 in campaign donations to Hill  came from New York. Hill’s campaign used homelessness to launch her into Congress and obtained donations from major players like Facebook who donated over $8,000 as well as major media organizations like NBC, SONY, and Disney.

There is a common theme among the Democrat leaders in positions to help the homeless; they all state their work has been successful because they have raised millions of dollars, and hired more staff. They gloat about the increased programs that focus on homelessness or studies. However, the real problem is that the funds to help those in need are not flowing downstream to those in the streets.”

With all of their resources, it is unfortunate that Union Station Homeless Services focuses on housing, rather than treatment and wrap-around services. But then their clients would be made whole, and the homeless services wouldn’t be needed. It isn’t difficult to conclude that they aren’t solving homelessness but are focused in continuing their “important work:”

“Our programs offer a continuum of tailored services that meet the housing, health, and hunger needs of our community. Our approach has four core areas of services:

• Outreach

• Interim Housing

• Permanent Housing

• Community Engagement

“At Union Station Homeless Services, we believe in the power of the Housing First model.”

Their Outreach includes “working with more than 130 local partners to provide street outreach, intake and assessment, connection to services, care coordination, housing navigation, housing placement, and retention assistance for our clients.”

For the $40 million a year in income they receive, passing their clients off to 130 local partners is questionable.

Their “Hospital Liaison and Patient Navigator teams work with those who are frequent users of the hospital system to provide case management and housing referrals.”

It is well-known in the homeless services community that homeless people are abusing hospital privileges, with some actually living in hospitals. Hospitals are required to link homeless patients with specific programs to post-hospital options prior to discharge. But if they are unable to, they can’t discharge the homeless patient. The Globe knows of several full-time hospital patients in Sacramento hospitals, that the hospitals can’t get rid of. They actually live in the hospitals, with 24-7 medical services.

The language used to describe homeless services is deliberately vague, but sounds positive. The point is that billions have been spent on California’s drug-addicted, mentally-ill homeless population, and only succeeded in growing the population. No one using public funding is solving it – least of all, Katie Hill, now back in the non-profit homeless grift, using the drug-addicted, mentally-ill homeless for income.

The government needs to end taxpayer funding to non-profits. Stat.
