Upscale alt-housing?

That’s the attitude. The doorway isn’t really a doorway, it’s a condo if you just squint and look at it right.

That stair landing is a duplex.

Isn’t it fun being Romania?

What we need to solve the problem of homelessness is tax cuts.

The Post noted that the President himself wasn’t involved in the decision about the program.

Yeah, that’s what they initially said about the decision to fire Comey, too.

[/quote]I guess HUD (Dr. Carson?) made the decision - after Trump made his preferences known. Every day something happens to make his grifting more obvious. But, I suppose even if Trump walked into his supporters’ homes and took the money out of their cookie jars, it would be fine by them (because he’s still taking more from and causing more suffering to “those people”).

These are the sorts of cuts I’ve been fearing. Pretty soon, the numbers of homeless will spike, as will the numbers of suicides and those dying of exposure. This is not hyperbole, I’m very serious. It is difficult for me to wrap my head around the concept someone can be so cruel … and yet he and his live in the lap of (gaudy) luxury.

Proof that every American has a giant target on their back.

We can add to the list with metal shipping containers, tarps, and pallets.

Noes! Consider the theft of pool covers. Sad.

This man has never heard that even the appearance of impropriety is something to be avoided. If he demonstrates that he is gathering all the government cookies for himself he will be cheered on by the billionaires for whom this is SOP.

It’s government by the wealthy, for the wealthy and of the wealthy.

We’re gonna be rich, lastroth. We can make oodles off of peoples’ suffering just like Repuglicans.

Isn’t that a sickening thought really? Jesus wept.
