Los Angeles City Controller Kenneth Mejia “I am the city's accountant, auditor, and paymaster” overseeing $35 billion in spending 🚨 He says if he performs an audit to provide transparency and California Democrats don’t like his findings, they cut his staff. Last year they cut his staff by 27 positions “if I do an audit, if I provide transparency and it's something that they don't like, I could face retaliation and budget cuts just like what I faced last fiscal year, where I lost 27 positions or 15% of my entire staff positions.”
