https://streetlightnews.org/hud-budget/ “There are people waiting,” Murray said. “There are court orders. I expect them to be followed and I’m just going to say for the record, there is nothing objectionable about this funding. It’s stunning to me that we’re under a court order, and you’re not giving the money out.” #housing #HUD #CDBG #USPolitics #homelessness #shortage

@Nonilex RIP. I watched him back in the 80s when I was probably too young. I loved him, part of my inspiration for doing environmental activism when that was not really a thing kids were expected to do

@futurebird Just ask the worst chatbot you can find to write a positive jobs numbers report with some convincing looking references and quotes and paste it on social

#TIL the term "Law and Order" in U.S. Politics appears to originate with the "Law and Order Party of Rhode Island", a political effort to ensure that most property owning men in that state would continue to be deprived of voting rights in honor of the King's Charter of 1663 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Law_and_Order_Party_of_Rhode_Island #LawAndOrder #KingsCharter #RhodeIsland #USHistory #USPolitics #VotingRights

@futurebird yeah, slippery slope, which did in fact happen. Collapsible steering wheel, air bags, all kinds of expensive safety tech that saved a lot of lives until we figured out how to make dangerous cars again
