“By cutting aid for permanent housing by 2/3 next year, the plan risks a sudden end of support… beginning as soon as January. All are disabled — a condition of the aid — and many are 50 or older. The document does not explain how they would find housing.”
This is far worse than anyone expected.
Trump's HUD plan would cut *two-thirds* of permanent housing and push as many as 170,000 formerly homeless people back onto the street—redirecting funds to work mandates, forced treatment, and encampment sweeps.
All as mass internment camps are being built.

Devoured this book in 3 days. Excellent narrative storytelling following several families, with data and stats interwoven. Extremely timely with current SNAP events and talk of affordability.

It’s very sad that Gov. Stitt can say this obviously true thing but @GovBillLee wouldn’t in a million years.

As I observed in my Substack Round Up this past week, the endgame of the military strikes against drug cartels in international waters is to lay the groundwork to use lethal military force against Americans at home. Pay attention open.substack.com/pub/asharang...

Trump: "We took the freedom of speech away because that's been through the courts and the courts said you have freedom of speech, but what has happened is when they burn a flag it agitates and irritates crowds."

It really does not get more explicit than Trump telling top active-duty military generals that they will need to participate in occupations of large cities run by his political opponents as part of his "war from within"
Trump: "The ones that are run by radical left Democrats -- what they've done to San Francisco, Chicago, New York, Los Angeles. They're very unsafe places & we're gonna straighten them out one by one. This is gonna be a major part for some people in this room. That's a war too. It's war from within"

We are outraged and deeply distressed that armed federal agents came onto our campus—making arrests on the very ground where, in 1942, Japanese American families were forced to board buses bound for concentration camps. It was a deliberate act of provocation and intimidation.

Federal agents violently detained a food delivery driver as he emerged from a D.C. coffee shop Saturday morning.
The incident captured on video showed the officers throwing him to the ground and beating him before sweeping him away in an unmarked vehicle. wapo.st/45Egtkc

Immigration thugs drew their guns on a disabled kid & dragged him from a car outside a school.
Then they somehow left a bunch of bullets on school grounds.
When agents were contacted to pick up the ammunition, they told the school to use it for target practice.

That wouldn’t have deep reaching impacts at all, across multiple industries
Trump’s BLS pick is floating the idea of suspending monthly jobs reports — which are widely relied on by economists, the Fed, Wall Street and others to gauge the state of the economy in near real time.
