An Oregon pilot program giving cash to homeless youths sees a staggering reduction in homelessness. The program gave participants $1,000 cash payments each month for two years, and at the end of the project's first phase, 91% of participants reported being in stable housing.

Aftyn Behn still shifting the margin 13% in what became a high turnout, high profile election is a big 🚨🚨🚨 for thinking about 2026.

Sorry, I’m not doing moderate vs prog discourse tonight. Behn won the primary with 27%. If you can’t figure out how to beat that, it’s on you.

Every single congressional Democrat needs to be out there, right now, insisting that Pete Hegseth resign right now and announcing that he will be held accountable for committing war crimes.
If you do not demand accountability here and now, they will only become more emboldened.

Hate to break it to Chicagoans but $1300-1800 is fairly typical for a studio to 1BR in most coastal and big sunbelt cities. (And obv for quite a few coastal cities, $1300 would be a steal!)
Lakeview is kinda crazy because what do you mean this studio is at least $1300 and could be as much as $1800?!
I better be getting a full ass 1 bed for that price!
