  • At a budget hearing Friday, Councilmember Robert White pushed back at those claims. “What we heard from the mayor this week was that people are gaming the system,” he said. “There is no evidence of this. There is no evidence of fraud. What there is evidence of is that rents are going up much higher than incomes. There’s evidence that evictions are up. There’s evidence that legal programs that assist people in avoiding eviction are all now overstretched. So, what we are seeing is a housing crisis, not a crisis of people gaming the system.”

    No evidence but they’ll do it anyway

    But Department of Human Services Director Laura Zeilinger, who oversees the program, says White is wrong and there is fraud in the program. “So, we want to make sure that where we’re addressing what we’ve seen not work in the program in instances like that, and that we’re making sure that the people who it’s intended for able to access it,” she said.

    Wow what incredible evidence, well I’m convinced

    A significant reason the program is being cut is because millions of dollars in federal funds used in the past few years are no longer available, the Bowser administration said.

  • Well as a minority living in America I’m more terrified of the dems normalizing genocide, normalizing the repression of activist groups and charging them thru RICO, normalizing anti immigrant sentiment by surpassing Trump’s deportation numbers and making his border laws more repressive

    Somehow that shit seems a little more relevant to me than some hypothetical about Republicans fucking up already fucked up courts, taxing poor people more and shuttering an already half shuttered department of education

    If Genocide is already normalized wtf do I have to fear anymore? WHY SHOULD I BE SCARED when I’ve already witnessed more death and depravity these last six months than I can handle for a lifetime


  • The Russians don’t have the constant tens of billions needed to sustain Israel if the US pulls out

    And Iran definitely would not remain friendly to Russia if it decides to back Israel to the hilt, which would guarantee Russia would make an enemy of every major state in the region aside from Israel

    Also Russia doesn’t have the capital and pull to keep Egypt under control like the US does and Egypt has always been the crucial determinant of the conflict

    Basically it all boils down to the fact Russia can’t control the middle east because it doesn’t have the petro dollar and it never will
