Fascinating profile of a park ranger in San Francisco who works with unhoused residents and has adopted the novel tactic of treating them like human beings, building relationships, and helping them access resources on their own timeline.
Her job is to remove homeless people from SF's parks. Her methods are extraordinary
Instead of forcing people out of Golden Gate Park, ranger Amanda Barrows helps them find housing.

I think it’s extremely important people understand the sequencing.
The targets of MOST of the crimes now are internal to the government. This is so he will have a government willing to perform crimes against the people outside of government. We are next.

1. This is illegal. The President merely cites Article II of the Constitution to remove civil servants.
2. It is part of a pattern of building a personalist legal infrastructure by making sure key lawyers are loyalists who will say yes to further illegal acts.
