Extraordinary interview from @maximillianalvarez.bsky.social of @therealnews.com with HUD whistleblowers. Trump administration has effectively shut down fair housing attorneys, making sure they can’t speak to anyone in order to enforce the law against housing discrimination.
🚨 Federal whistleblowers reveal how Trump's HUD is abandoning vulnerable Americans

"The frank fact of the matter is that, right now, discrimination is not being prosecuted," they tell me. "Fair housing laws are not being enforced"
