The possibility that this will end in TACO is rapidly disappearing. I cannot overstate how devastating this will be. The entire decade I've worked in this field HUD has emphasized how we need to house the most vulnerable people and now 2/3 of them will lose their supports.

Headline: Trump Administration Expected to Drastically Cut Housing Grants

In a major shift, HUD’s plan would direct most of the $3.5 billion in homelessness funds away from Housing First to programs that prioritize work and drug treatment.

Even if you accept the government's framing of the case, Charlie Kirk was killed by a white Mormon man who met a trans person, realized how hateful & cruel the right is, and, because of his conservative upbringing, only had the tools to respond to someone he saw as a bad man with violence

Even if you ignore everything else about this story, how can HUD suddenly take on a bunch of additional contracts when they're slashing staff?! www.multifamilydive.com/news/hud-sec...

"LISC told Multifamily Dive that it appears that HUD plans to move the process of distributing grants to smaller organizations away from intermediaries and into HUD itself."

Living in a “blue” state is no protection. NYU Langone has volunteered to stop gender affirming care for children under 19. I say volunteered because an executive order is not a law. Thus, this is a choice made by a hospital in New York City. Join the protest tonight at 6:30. Shame the Devil.

From inside HHS, a court order sent around this morning telling agencies they can’t pause spending:

NOTICE OF COURT ORDER
You are hereby advised that a temporary restraining order has been entered in the case of New York et al. v. Trump, No. 25-cv-39-JJM-PAS (D.R.I.), ECF No. 50 (Jan. 31, 2025). You are receiving this Notice pursuant to the Court's directive that notice of the order be provided "to all Defendants and agencies and their employees, contractors, and grantees by Monday, February 3, 2025, at 9 a.m." A copy of the Court's Order is attached for reference.
This case challenges an alleged "pause" of certain Federal financial assistance, related to OMB Memorandum M-25-13, Temporary Pause of Agency Grant, Loan, and Other Financial Assistance Programs (Jan. 27, 2025) ("OMB Memo*). Although that OMB Memo was rescinded on January 29, 2025, the plaintiffs in the above-referenced case allege that the funding pause directed by the OMB Memo is still in effect, including because of recently issued
Executive Orders by the President.

1. Federal agencies cannot pause, freeze, impede, block, cancel, or terminate any awards or obligations on the basis of the OMB Memo, or on the basis of the
President's recently issued Executive Orders.

I wonder if folks like Coyne who I hope recognize closing NSF/NIH grant review as a war in science see any contradiction in lining up behind this order’s egregiously bad science. I guess it’s the same deal as Polis making googly eyes at RFK or whatever. Just seems like critical thinking is lacking.
