Reagan also privatized affordable #housing and *SLASHED* the funding to build & rehab units thru HUD.

By KILLING #AffordableHousing supply for 40+ years, the GOP put upward pressure on rents by choking off supply. (Vouchers don’t build/rehab units.)

It’s genuinely alarming that the official DHS account is talking like this. This isn’t a parody account, it’s a federal agency using the tone of an online teenage bully to respond to fair public criticism.

Trump is now working to secure one party rule--just like Mussolini and Hitler did. Trump's new executive order designating Antifa a terrorist group is the first step in Trump labeling the infrastructure of the Democratic party as terrorists. deanobeidallah.substack.com/p/trump-is-n...

A severe typhoon hit Alaska and has destroyed Alaskan Native villages. Homes are floating down the river. FEMA cuts and the use of the National guard to terrorize cities means they are not receiving critical rescue support and aid. And of course the media is NOT reporting on it.

NEW: There’s a disaster unfolding in Alaska right now. And no major network is covering it.

The remnants of Typhoon Halong battered western Alaska overnight. Homes, with people in them, have literally been swept into the Bering Strait.

At least 20 are missing. No comment from any federal agency.

Please remember that the disgust people have over Christopher Columbus is not based on some modern, 21st century “woke” ideology, but rather on contemporaneous accounts of atrocities that make many modern genocides appear quaint in comparison.

Below, are the accounts of Bartlomé de las Casas.
But too many of the slaves died in captivity. And so Columbus, desperate to pay back dividends to those who had in-vested, had to make good his promise to fill the ships with gold. In the province of Cicao on Haiti, where he and his men imagined huge gold fields to exist, they ordered all persons fourteen years or older to collect a certain quantity of gold every three months. When they brought it, they were given copper tokens to hang around their necks. Indians found without a copper token had their hands cut off and bled to death.
The Indians had been given an impossible task. The only gold around was bits of dust garnered from the streams. So they fled, were hunted down with dogs, and were killed. After each six or eight months' work in the mines, which was the time required of each crew to dig enough gold for melting, up to a third of the men died.
While the men were sent many miles away to the mines, the wives remained to work the soil, forced into the excruciating job of digging and making thousands of hills for cassava plants.
Thus husbands and wives were together only once every eight or ten months and when they met they were so exhausted and depressed on both sides... they ceased to pro-create. As for the newly born, they died early because their mothers, overworked and fam-ished, had no milk to nurse them, and for this reason, while I was in Cuba, 7000 children died in three months. Some mothers even drowned their babies from sheer desper-ation.... In this way, husbands died in the mines, wives died at work, and children died from lack of milk ... and in a short time this land which was so great, so powerful and fer-tile... was depopulated... My eyes have seen these acts so foreign to human nature, and now I tremble as I write....

So Russia says Trump’s intellect is not up to par, that he acts like a cowboy from a saloon or an infant, and that he is as simple as pocket change. They freely admit they have to stroke his ego and manipulate him.

What does Trump do? He thanks Putin. 🙄

This isn’t Chicago, but reminded me of that time early this year when Tom Homan went on TV to complain about how difficult Chicago is for them, because there has long been an effort to inform people of their rights.

So now they’ve sent in the secret police, who simply ignore people’s rights.

The homeowner told agents she would not allow them inside because the warrant they presented did not include her address and lacked a judge's signature.”

This seems like confirmation
Then Mr. Trump won the presidency back, and the Biden administration was determined to get a cease-fire in place by January, before it left office. It drafted a peace plan, much of which was quite similar to the “20 point plan” Mr. Trump recently issued. There was slow progress: More than 130 hostages had been released by the time the January cease-fire took place.

“We handed over a cease-fire that silenced the guns, had hostages coming out and aid going in, along with a day-after plan to make it permanent,” Mr. Blinken said. But when the new administration took over, “the moment was squandered,” he added. “Israel and Hamas went back to war for eight months.”

Israeli officials tell a different story. Mr. Biden was a lame duck, they noted, and disengaged. Mr. Trump was a known entity, less likely to lecture Mr. Netanyahu in private or public. They put their money on a new president, and a new negotiating team

One of JD Vance’s admitted gurus, Curtis Yarvin, says he’s thinking about fleeing the country because Trump hasn’t dismantled enough of America’s democratic institutions and he fears “vengeance.” Let that sink in when you think about who’s running the country.
