The best people I know still come to work everyday to serve the communities we know depend on us. We support our fellow Huddies. We bring treats, snacks and coffee. We lift each other up with jokes and laughter. We continue to make suggestions for how to improve our operations and our outcomes.

When this is the type of journalism we are left with it will be no surprise that the masses are all marching to the same drummer. This is BS. Study after study not to mention other countries have shown housing first works. HUD primarily funds locally driven programs!

Fascism knocks quietly at our door.
It is time to wake the sleeping giant,
To protect freedoms yet fulfilled.
Those of us who hold the line,
Will serve you all as we stand.
We represent no magic wand,
We scream into the void.
Who among us will answer the call?

All of us.

I wish this were the worst of it. Zero plan within this administration to do anything to fix our housing crisis. Their only policy is to continue previous mediocre policies that have failed in the past to keep pace like this bs public lands MOU & increase requirements on those most in need.

Another Trump lie.

Ok Tucker you got us. Hidden within every Public Housing development is an extremely high-end elaborate billionaire’s bachelor bunker for the apocalypse. We’re able to hide said bunkers by pretending to be the incompetent lazy Feds you villainize by day & by night we work overtime digging tunnels.

The terrible CR Budget bill — written by right-wing House Republicans with no input from anybody but themselves — was passed tonight with the support of 10 Democrats.
 
An absolute failure of Democratic leadership. NOBODY in the Senate should have voted for this dangerous bill.
