They arrested him after releasing this while he was documenting a raid. They haven't even cited him for anything #FreeAnt

The real heroes are the community members who showed up to hold the Dodgers accountable for letting ICE use their lots all week. The Ds put out a propaganda statement to save face after they got caught. Get real 🙄

Literally! If they were denied entry, then how did they get in??? They had been using the lots all week, and when the community showed up to hold them accountable and kick out ICE, the Ds put out some propaganda to save face. Don't fall for it

It's truly incredible how bad the reporting on this has been. ICE had been using the lots all week and suddenly when they got caught, the Dodgers put out some propaganda to save face. The community members on the ground is the reason the Ds changed their tune.

Whatttt. The council can just instruct the City Atty? They've been letting landlords run slum housing for decades while we've been waiting for a good City Atty and this whole time they could have done something about it??? The poor have been facing abuse in this City for so long....

Trump's proposal for housing is less of a budget & more of a demolition order. This administration keeps telling regular people they don't matter.

Proposed cuts to housing programs could affect millions, experts warn
The White House proposed slashing funding for Section 8 and other federal programs by about 43 percent, saying it will “fix our broken federal housing policy.”

Trump's budget proposal: ❌ Slashes rental assistance ❌ Guts public housing ❌ Kneecaps fair housing enforcement ❌ Cuts homelessness services A budget is a moral document. Trump’s says: "Eat sh*t and die."

I heard there are going to be nationwide 'No Kings' protests on Trump's birthday, so that's fun. Remember, one 10,000 person march is ineffective. Ten 1,000 person marches spread out all over the city is the way to go.

The Trump regime wants to end public housing, set work requirements on federal benefits, and limit federal benefits to 10 years. All to fund his tax cuts. Tax money for the American people? ❌️ Tax money for the billionaire oligarchs? ✅️

Did you know that we were on track to completely solve homelessness by the end of the 70s? But then we started privatizing our housing and ushered in a new housing crisis. People don't talk about this enough

Public Housing is not just housing for the poor. The model was designed to serve everyone! We need to prioritize those who cannot afford housing, of course. And with such few units available the projects have mostly poor residents. But this trend could easily be changed if we increase our stock!

Second, there are many people who are "over-income" (per HUDs guidelines) who still live in public housing. This is one of the strengths of the Section 9 model. Once you get into Sec 9, it's extremely difficult to lose your unit.

A good piece about architecture for the masses: jacobin.com/2016/06/zaha...

Design for the One Percent
Contemporary architecture is more interested in mega projects for elites than improving ordinary people's lives.

Even the towers in Chicago had green space, playgrounds, and community spaces - not carceral. Ppl often criticize brutalist architecture, but the reality is brutalism is architecture for the masses. This is an aesthetic concern that has nothing to do with the quality of the housing.

Public Housing Works! (tabs) @s9tabs.bsky.social · 15/03/2025
The 2 things I heard today were: public housing looks carceral and public housing is segregated and only for low-income people. First, LA public housing is all low-density garden style. Not modernist/brutalist towers like Chicago. This claim was just false.

It's incredible when people come up to me, a public housing organizer, to tell me about the issues with public housing. They're just repeating old, untrue propaganda from Nixon and Reagan and don't even realize it. Com visit a project and talk to our members and THEN we can talk!!

We need to stop investing in privatized "affordable" housing. It is simply not affordable. Stop scamming poor people.

Homelessness is a symptom of capitalism and we will never solve it by investing in more capitalism. The only path forward is a socialized housing system. Public housing for all!

Sometimes you just need to wait for the right conditions for a win. But in the meantime, keep asking for what you need until you get it. It's never a good decision to negotiate away the rights of the poor.
