The California park system secretly hid $54 million as it cut services and begged for money from private donors, which is certainly some kind of new low in bottom-dwelling, cynical, manipulative, politics.

The announcement means the department has plenty of cash, even though it's been soliciting hundreds of thousands of dollars in donations in what was thought to be a desperate scramble to keep parks open.

The two maggots at the top of the agency have either quit or been fired.

The finances of the agency need a complete investigation from an independent auditor. How could they hide so much money and is all the money accounted for?
