The left has turned homelessness into a billion-dollar industry all its own, an industry growing richer as the problem grows larger, siphoning off greater sums of taxpayer dollars.
But buried among the squalor, addiction, and despair is the rampant child abuse that goes on in the streets.
The Democrat-run city of Los Angeles features its infamous Skid Row district, a 50-block area in downtown LA that houses one of the largest concentrations of severe poverty in the United States, and a video is making the rounds this week of a 19-year-old resident who is pregnant with her third child.
The video was posted by Joey Tuccio, who explains the woman is 10 weeks pregnant. The homeless teen says she has been off drugs for a week, meaning she was doing drugs for the first nine weeks of the pregnancy.
“This is child abuse. And this is so incredibly normal on Skid Row and all over downtown LA,” Tuccio writes.

It’s worth noting that the woman was smoking at the time, had a working cell phone, tattoos, and evidently had her nails done sometime recently.
The video comes at the same time as a disturbing video of a woman reportedly having a child on the street while smoking crack. Spencer Pratt, who was robbed of an opportunity to challenge Marxist-inspired Mayor Karen Bass in a runoff election courtesy of the Democratic Party’s ever-reliable, post-election mail-in voting haul, shared footage of the woman, explaining that the newborn child was later found dead.
“This is Nithya Raman’s slum utopia. A crackhead gave birth on the street (while smoking crack). Nithya runs homelessness & housing for LA City, and she gave them their free crackpipes. The baby was found dead in a blanket. This is what LA voted for? God help us. God help us,” Pratt wrote.

Nithya Raman, who is chair of the Los Angeles City Council’s Housing and Homelessness Committee, is the socialist candidate who was a distant third in the LA mayoral primary, only to see an improbable, even impossible post-election surge of mail-in ballots to bump Pratt, before falling back into obscurity — her feat essentially ensuring Bass remains at the helm for another 4 years.
As for the child abuse in the streets of America, don’t expect the media to take much interest. After all, this would harm the Democratic Party if voters saw the fruits of their labor.
Here’s a quick sampling of responses to the story, as seen on X:
She has money for nails, drugs
tats, cigarettes, and a phone.Stop assisting these people other than;
rehab, tubes tied, and a job.— Re-Coyle (@DeniseCoyle1320) July 30, 2026
Has phone service, nails, cigs…all not cheap. Is she sober for that week bcus she WANTS to be? Or bcus she didn’t have the funds or connection for that particular week? Her answer should of been ” help get me a job”! But, instead we hear, just give me. Give me, give me.

Is this real? If so, LA has reached the ninth rung of hell, and its leaders should be punished as Dante proscribed.

Is there a Communist-run city in this country that isn’t a filthy hellhole? Democrats hate their own fucking voters! Why do they continue voting for hell?

The child was born addicted. Probably died painfully in withdrawal. So horribly sad. Rest in peace, sweet baby

Democrat run cities and states are the only place you’ll see this level of societal decline and despair.
They call it “progressive”
