Want to see how far right the Republican Party has gone?

Watch George H. W. Bush and Ronald Reagan answer a question about illegal immigration during a 1980 debate.

They wouldn’t even be allowed in today’s Republican Party.

I know that for every mixed housing unit only about 12% are affordable. I would like to see it be closer to 50% in order for builders to receive the government incentives. Maybe then we would see a bigger dent in the actual issue. If that makes me all the names you called me 🤷🏼‍♀️

Yes 100%. Maybe I’m the only person in the room seeing these places go up all around me and yet still not solving enough of the problem. I personally believe there is too much profit and not enough helping involved 🤷🏼‍♀️ by these comments idk I guess it’s just me.

Mine was $1900 this year and they won’t let me see any prices until November 1st on Health connector. I’m green at the gills

I would like to see the percentage of affordable units within a mixed housing building be much higher than they currently are in order for builders to receive the government incentives. More on the lines of 50% instead of 12%, to start.

I have a problem with how we’re going about “affordable housing” because it’s not even affordable and white, rich, predatory builders are given a fucking free-for-all to circumvent every environmental regulation they possibly can… while helping next to no one

But I’m racist. Got it

Ya, call me a NIMBY because building 250 units where 238 of the units are completely unaffordable for most people is helping the situation so immensely 🙄

If members of the United States military are truly being paid their salaries by a private individual, the American people should know who that individual is. Now.

Voting to ease regulations for more affordable housing is NOT the answer, and is not effective. What we should be aiming for are ways to take the million dollar profit off the table. Anyone becoming rich on “affordable housing” is not creating affordable housing. It’s an oxymoron.

Pritzker on Fox: "He's challenging the integrity of the next election by sending troops into our cities. It isn't about fighting crime. He said he's going after the worst of the worst. That's not what they're doing. They are literally after black and brown people because of the color of their skin."

Brian Schatz: "This is not about money. There is enough money to bail out Argentina with $20b. There is enough money to purchase a brand new aircraft for $173m for Noem. There is enough money to renovate the WH ballroom. What there isn't enough money for under this Republican government is you."

Secretary Rubio came before Congress and said nobody was dying as a result of his foreign aid cuts. It's not true. Children are starving and dying because of this administration's cruelty.

New developments in my 3 year Epstein investigation, this time regarding JP Morgan Chase and its CEO, Jamie Dimon. This is a long thread, but worth sticking around for.
