People will cling to the familiar even if it is killing them. If one doesn't understand this basic fact, then you will be so confounded on multiple levels.

The RENTAL Act was bad and rotten from the start. It’s like sole source sports betting - we’ll continue to discover it’s even worse than we already thought.
Oops! DC's housing/development agency forfeited ~$35m in federal money after bailing out a project helmed by Green Teamer Buwa Binitie.

Suzie Amanuel aptly shows how this was conveniently left out of the debate on the housing market for the RENTAL Act:

How DHCD Forfeited $35 Million in Federal Assistance for Affordable Housing and Bailed Out a Well-Connected Developer
DHCD Director Colleen Green failed to disclose the loss of funding when asked during a D.C. Council hearing earlier this year.

Please stop using language that suggests that people with criminal records are appropriate targets for this administration's violence. One in three adults has a criminal record. Stop playing sacrifice games with fascists. Stop surrendering entire categories of people in your own mind.

anyway ludicrous to think the right question is “how did DHS lose its way??” and not “why did we build a domestic security super agency in the first place, and who has that power served”

At Socialist Night School, you’ll learn about how one rich person being able to buy and dismantle the Washington Post and turn it into his own propaganda rag is the antithesis of Democracy.

Let's annotate:
1. Who did it? Clearly assigns blame.
2. Why did the culprits do it? Motive.
3. What must be done in response?
Overnight, Trump and Republicans in Congress shut down the federal government.

They shut it down because they’re determined to strip healthcare from millions of Americans, to enrich the billionaires they serve, to continue the assault on our rights.

We must fight back.

Took about 20 years. And I never thought a book about enslavers using deputization to give themselves policing power would be relevant to our times. But we are where we are.

My book, White Power: Policing American Slavery, is now available for preorder.
