Bulldozing encampments is as expensive as it is ineffective. 90% of people who are living in encampments are already on waiting lists for housing. Mayor Frey's approach is to make our unhoused neighbors invisible. That’s not a solution, that’s playing politics with people's lives.

new from @kylietcheung.bsky.social in @teenvogue.com: recently, men have impersonated plainclothes ICE agents to assault women—only possible, she argues, because state agents commit violence with impunity.

How ICE Raids Are Making It Easier for Civilian Men to Assault Immigrant Women
