All these people who can't wait to see Bellingcat's enormous US government funding getting cut by the Trump administration are going to be very confused when they find out there wasn't any anyway.

Denver gave people experiencing homelessness $1k/month. A year later, nearly half had housing.

They also had fewer ER visits, nights spent in a hospital, and jail stays.

The report estimates that this reduction in public service use SAVED the city $589k.

Denver gave people experiencing homelessness $1,000 a month. A year later, nearly half of participants said they had housing.
Participants in Denver's basic-income program reported having more-secure housing, though results were similar in the trial and control groups.

I used to warn that the Oligarch goal was to create a permanent over-burdened underclass of cheap labor with no education, verifiable information, choice or recourse.
Now, I still think it's that, plus vivisection for parts.

Horrific pictures from Beirut overnight after Israel apparently dropped multiple ‘bunker buster’ missiles into residential apartments.

The attack appears to have happened without any warning, around 4am while people and families were sleeping.

Anders Breivik, Norwegian terrorist and mass murderer, appeared in court with the letter Z shaved on his head and a message of support for Russia on a poster. Nazis support Putin, for obvious reasons.

Remember this. We are weaker now. “Trump has groomed us.” Try to hold and speak and advocate what you know is right and true. We’ve already moved so far. Don’t change your standards to accommodate their shameless incompetence & cruelty.
