Federal investigators spent years on two major housing discrimination cases in Texas, finding what they believed were stark civil rights violations.
Then the Trump Admin assumed office and quietly took steps that officials think will likely kill both cases.

Today @natfairhouse.bsky.social & @warren.senate.gov are facilitating a Senate Briefing highlighting the harmful impacts of Trump’s attacks on fair housing. Last week, DOGE & HUD cancelled ~ 80 Fair Housing Act enforcement & education grants/contracts halting work to address housing discrimination.
The film is based on a true story set in 1970s Rio de Janeiro, when Brazil was living under a military dictatorship.
This is absolutely horrifying. These are the organizations on the front lines advocating for people who have experienced housing discrimination and doing affirmative work to end discrimination in housing. Without them, more families and people with disabilities will be on the streets.
Trump's administration cancels funding of local orgs on the frontlines protecting fair housing rights of all, including people w/disabilities, people of color and faith, families w/ children, seniors, victims of domestic violence, & LGBTQ+. It won't make housing cheaper.

Fair housing contracts terminated mid-year after hours, with no notice. apnews.com/article/trum...
What Donald Trump is allowing Elon Musk and his DOGE team to do is not an audit. It is a coup. This an incredibly dangerous moment—and it is all the more dangerous if people don’t understand what is happening.

If folks are boycotting Target, then boycotting a game for 1 day should be a no-brainer, and may have more impact?

The Senate has confirmed Trump's HUD nominee Scott Turner, who has advocated for increasing the private equity industry's role in the housing market.
These corporate landlords are one of the biggest reasons why you can't afford a home.
There will be a protest on SUNDAY Feb. 2 at 3:00 p.m. outside the federal Office of Personnel Management (OPM) bldg., where Musk & his cyber-thugs have seized control of the government's computers. 1900 E Street NW (corner of E and 19th Sts.), Wash. DC. Spread the word to DC area folks!
Anti-Trump demonstrators in Los Angeles have taken over the 101 freeway to protest ICE deportation raids.

It’s important to know that a lot of productive activity is happening in person and offline, too.
Not all of it can be broadcast online, but we’ve had hundreds of people showing up to our trainings, mobilizations, and more.
Keep going. Tyranny is eroded by a sea of small acts. Everything matters.
He understands and wants people to suffer while he tries to dismantle .... everything? The american government, economy, principles of fairness, human rights, equity, etc.?
He gets it. The suffering is the means to an end. It is essential to the plan.
Read Leader Simpson’s statement on the sponsor's request to withdraw HB 476, the 15 week abortion ban being heard today in the NH House. #NHPolitics 🔽
"Decision went back to states" is overturning Roe. Exactly what I said. He has repeatedly taken credit for overturning Roe. There is video of him. And he appointed the 3 justices specifically because they would.
He explicitly nominated those 3 because they would overturn Roe. And he takes credit for doing that now. That's why it is his fault.
According to ProPublica, she wasn't an inpatient. To win medical malpractice claim in TX against an emergency room, family would have to prove "wilfull and wanton negligence" which is more difficult to prove, particularly, when TX law criminalizes most abortions.

You are kidding, right? Who do you think appointed and then confirmed 3 justices to the Supreme Court that overturned Roe? President Biden doesn't control Supreme Court decisions, and if he did, they would all be violating their oath to the Constitution.
Potato distributors allegedly used a pricing app to collude and raise prices nearly 50% over 2 years.
This is the EXACT practice that Biden & the Khan FTC have attacked, but voters just threw them out because... the price of food is too high

In conversation with a cis-man about abortion bans last week, he actually referenced the government's alleged interest in increasing the birth rate. That man claims to care about me.
This is the selfish, dehumanizing mindset of people who would trade human rights for the chance at money.
In Trumpworld, if everyone is a sexual predator, then no one’s misdeeds matters. MAGA Republicans seem to be having their own #MeToo moment, except here, a growing cohort of men is essentially saying: Oh, another man accused of sexual predation? #MeToo — and so what?

Is it just me, or are there lots of cis-male-heavy starter packs from progressive folks? Where are there starter packs heavy with women and trans folks?
And AFFH will lose. Appraisal bias work, tenant-screening tools guidance?
