I assume this is based on the erroneous belief that folk will do anything for a roof over their head and should just accept what they're given. No thought for the social costs on tenants of this sort of housing - not functional, no privacy, no beauty, no dignity,

I wish people would stop calling her 'the firebrand senator'. I know it means a troublemaker or an agitator but I've mostly admired a rousing 'firebrand'. This is not Hanson - she's just an ignorant, narrowminded racist.

I agree but when a man says it about a woman it strikes the same tone as being labelled 'emotional' or 'hysterical' or, my favourite, 'she's such a difficult woman.' Makes me want to take a swipe at someone and I'm strictly a pacifist .

It is not incidental to Trump’s political project how many of its key figures—including the president himself, Elon Musk, Defense Sec. Pete Hegseth, and RFK Jr.—have had assault allegations made against them It informs how they behave and how they justify themselves. trib.al/XxQs3S3

They’re acknowledging now that the people who called Trump a “fascist” were right. But somehow we’re still not to be trusted.
