Oops! DC's housing/development agency forfeited ~$35m in federal money after bailing out a project helmed by Green Teamer Buwa Binitie.

Suzie Amanuel aptly shows how this was conveniently left out of the debate on the housing market for the RENTAL Act:

A pre-dawn multi-agency raid in Georgetown left Latino residents handcuffed, homes torn apart, and now being told to vacate without proper notice. No warrant shown. Racial targeting alleged. This is what state violence looks like.

Zeteo has made a searchable database of all new 26,000 files related to Jeffrey Epstein.

Despite Trump saying this is a scam with "all arrows pointing to the Democrats," these have a whole lot of Trump in there. In fact, he's mentioned in these more than anyone else.

Take a look for yourself:
Zeteo Scoured 26,000 Epstein Docs. Here’s What We Found
You can search and review the emails here. Read what Epstein said about Trump, and his emails with Peter Thiel, Steve Bannon, Ehud Barak, and Larry Summers.

NYT editors put "Claudine Gay" in "top 5 featured on the New York Times homepage Dec 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 17, 22, 25"

(While they put Trump calling for Constitution's "termination" on page 15 and his chief of staff's "tyrant" warning on 12)

Christopher Rufo openly bragged about the plans!

If you haven’t been following it, it probably seems like the China stuff is all Trump, but it’s not. McCarthyism 2 was building in Congress for several years. I’ve testified in a House hearing that veered into China shit. This isn’t “another Trump overreach” or whatever - it’s fucking bipartisan

Socialism isn't going to work if y'all stay racist. It's not gonna work if y'all stay sexist. It's not gonna work if y'all stay transphobic. It's not gonna work if y'all stay ableist. Everyone needs to constantly work on that for these systems to work.

And we SHOULD because we want EVERYONE to eat.
"my least woke opinion is---"

That's enough. We've had enough people indulging in the "thrill of a little conservatism", as a treat. Of considering reactionary thought to be a salacious and taboo in a world descending into reactionary mania.

Give me your MOST woke opinions. We're bringing it back.

And we knew this. This wasn't speculation. We studied it, we had the talking points. We trained volunteers to explain this to people. It's not a surprise. Rich people don't flee places with good quality of life when we increase the quality of life. They might try to cheat us, but they don't leave.

This number is completely made up. There are not 30 million undocumented immigrants. The most recent estimates are around 14 million, of which roughly 8 million people have been here for over a decade.

Vance is not a fool. He knows this. DHS produces official estimates. They don’t say 30 million.
JD Vance: "A lot of young people are saying housing is way too expensive. Why is that? Because we flooded the country with 30 million illegal immigrants who were taking houses that ought by right go to American citizens."

For example, here's one thing you might believe but every single politician who is super mad about trans women jerks off to porn of us or hires us for sex. Including the TERF contingent.
I think this is true for a lot of marginalized groups, because we all keep our own lore and stuff, but if the trannies told the cis people how bad it really was they would never believe us
