This is going to destroy public housing in New York and across the country.
Toplines from HUD section of Trump proposed FY26 budget:
Sections 8, 9, 202 and 811 all eliminated and replaced by much smaller state block grant.
Elimination of HOME+CDBG.
Elimination of the Pathways to Removing Obstacles program, which helped cities do zoning/permitting reform.

As others have noted, it’s truly wild to see Terry Doughty write this. He is one of the most extreme MAGA judges appointed in Trump’s first term, author of many wacky, hard-right rulings reversed on appeal. When even he is appalled by an illegal deportation—it’s a sign of something. Wow.
NEW: A federal judge raised alarm Friday that the Trump administration appeared to have deported a 2-year-old U.S. citizen to Honduras with "no meaningful process" — even as her father was fighting to keep her in the country.

An firm, open commitment to the destruction of habeas corpus— the creation of a new rule that says anyone the administration orders ICE to seize can be shoved onto a flight to a torture prison in another country and there's nothing any US court can do about it— destroys constitutionalism.

NEWS: Last night, the Department of Homeland Security detained a Palestinian who helped lead the Columbia encampment.
Agents told him his visa was revoked. He said he had a green card. They were confused—then said that was revoked too.
His attorney demanded a warrant. Agents hung up instead.

In the face of a relentless attack by the president & allies on the public sector, we need an opposition that can articulate support for the value of the civil service; the value of people who take jobs to help others, not to make a profit; the value of government initiative for public betterment.
