“In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Those affected receive a small apartment & counselling with no preconditions. 4 out of 5 people affected make their way back into a stable life. And all this is CHEAPER than accepting homelessness.”

The Biden admin has lied to congress about what it knew, that Israel was in fact blocking humanitarian aid to Gaza. Two separate government bodies told them.
I repeat, in very clear terms: the Biden admin knew that Israel was starving children and lied about it.

My latest: A Jewish Harvard student put up posters depicting suffering in Gaza. The images were juxtaposed with text from “Al Chet,” a list of sins recited throughout Yom Kippur, the day of atonement.

These farm workers pause for a quick pic in Livingston CA. They share they are often asked why they dress in layers in this heat. The answer is the long sleeves protect from sunburn, the masks protect from dust & the hats offer additional protection from the sun. #WeFeedYou

what's great is how multilayered a success this is. It won't win a single conservative voter and it greatly demoralizes a huge number of liberal voters, all while being morally indefensible and a treaty violation.
President Biden announced an executive order on Tuesday to essentially block asylum at the U.S.-Mexico border, a major shift in how the U.S. has historically handled claims for protection. Here’s how it will work.

am i supposed to feel better that the border patrol is going completely rogue under biden and he can’t do anything about it? that actually seems a lot more problematic than his administration ordering the seizure to me. just one man’s take.
If you read actual news coverage of what happened, it's rogue Border Patrol units who can enforce any federal law within 100 miles of the border, being assholes.
That said if Biden had just ordered marijuana off Schedule I instead of what he did instead, this couldn't happen.
