There’s a lot of money in crises and if you’re wondering where that money went, ask the folks profiting from the crisis. The open borders invasion was bad news for a lot of people, but good news for some.
Now there’s bad news to go with the good news.
Federal prosecutors are investigating whether a New York City Council member and her sister, an aide to Gov. Kathy Hochul, accepted bribes or kickbacks in connection with the appropriation of city funds to a migrant shelter provider in a warrant that seeks evidence of possible criminal violations involving Councilmember Farah Louis, a Brooklyn Democrat, and Debbie Louis, who serves as Hochul’s assistant secretary of New York City intergovernmental affairs.
It also names Edu Hermelyn, the husband of state Assembly member Rodneyse Bichotte Hermelyn, who chairs the Brooklyn Democratic Party.
The warrant, for a phone connected to the investigation, said prosecutors are seeking information about whether the three received benefits in exchange for actions taken on behalf of BHRAGS Home Care Inc., a Brooklyn-based nonprofit that provides in-home services to the sick and elderly.
In 2022, as an influx of asylum seekers began arriving in the city, the nonprofit expanded its mission to include emergency shelters for migrants and other homeless services. Records show they have since received more than a dozen contracts, totaling over $200 million, from the Department of Homeless Services. An attorney for the executive director of BHRAGS, Roberto Samedy, declined to comment.
The AP buries the lede here, but the Louis sisters are the daughters of Haitian immigrants. As is Rodneyse Bichotte Hermelyn. And BHRAGS appears to be mostly run by Haitians, appears to be located in ‘Little Haiti, and sponsored a Haiti heritage reception under Adams. A number of the figures here have ties to the Adams machine and some of this may be a political crackdown by the Left.
And the case appears to be extending further.
A retired New York City police sergeant whose company provided security to the city’s migrant shelters has been indicted on bribery charges in a corruption investigation linked to a New York City Council member and an aide to New York Gov. Kathy Hochul.
Edouardo St. Fort was arrested in Massachusetts on Tuesday, court records show. His bribery case, filed in Brooklyn federal court, remained under seal as of Tuesday morning. A message seeking comment was left for a lawyer assigned to represent St. Fort.
According to St. Fort’s arrest warrant, he is under indictment on charges of conspiracy to commit offenses against the United States, bribery involving programs receiving federal funds, and violating a law prohibiting interstate travel for unlawful activities.
Records show Fort NYC Security was a subcontractor to two nonprofit organizations that provide homeless services to the city, BHRAGS Home Care Corp. and Bronx Family Network Inc. BHRAGS Home Care was also named in the search warrant. A spokesperson for the organization declined to comment.
This is not extraordinary, this is the default setting. The entire welfare system is one entangled pile of fraud in which political interests divert money to allied non-profits. Much of our economy now consists of this massive endless fraud in which hundreds of billions of dollars in local, statewide and national spending vanishes into these entities in order to supposedly solve various social problems from homelessness to health care. It’s fraud all the way down.
fraud = demoncRat = fraud – It’s become apparent, they biggest thing the DemonKKKRats fear is two fold: Their money laundering rackets with USA taxpayer dollars is going to be exposed and their whoring lavish lifestyle from stolen money will dry up and they will be indicted. I don’t give a tiddly wink if it’s former POTUSs to whomever. They are satanic crooks. They are pathological liars and sociopaths. And people who never seemed to have grown out of a two year old mentality or the mentality of believing cozy produced Tv shows that require no intellectual pushing of the envelope to truth are the mentality of two year old tantrums. These people are the ones who vote for tax increases and in California, keep funding the high speed train to nowhere which is a blatant, in our face and there is nothing we can do about it like a pride parade of naked Sodom and Gomorrah like freaks who have billions to fund lawsuits and corrupt judges so parents have no rights when their child is groomed to believe they are the opposite gender and start giving the immature mind pooberty blockers that lead to mutilation surgery and groom children to be racists against Caucasians and Jews.
And the SCOTUS have gone to the dark satanic side:
On March 31, 2026, the Supreme Court ruled against Colorado’s 2019 ban on “conversion therapy” for minors, which had prohibited licensed professionals from attempting to change a minor’s sexual orientation or gender identity. The case focused on whether the ban infringed on therapists’ free speech or constituted professional conduct regulation.
It’s turtles all the way down 🙂
With that kind of money, they could fund hundreds of not-for-profit communities using subsidized rent, each housing hundreds of homeless in decent apartments. See, we have such a rich economy we can afford to solve the homeless problem, but government corruption eats the money up.
If the $200 million actually went to the migrants, each migrant could be driving a BMW and living rent free for life.
Call me cynical, but I very much doubt these criminals will reach for their Donald Manes steak knives to evade justice. at least in this life.
What a sturdy looking no.nonsense stone building and it should never be painted. New York where George Washington dedicated America to the purposes of God
Given the scale of this $200 million fraud, has anyone looked into where this money is actually being laundered or moved through? Since the investigation mentions offshore ties and local shell companies, I’m curious if these NY Dems are connected to the international betting platforms that are currently flooding the market. For instance, I was reading about the regulatory status and ownership of certain operations at https://guiadevaidebetbrasil.com/ to understand how these entities bypass federal oversight. Could these types of platforms be the “black box” for the kickbacks mentioned in the article, or is it just standard non-profit skimming?
