FBI Director Kash Patel this week has faced the worst data breach in FBI history, a deputy who quit because Patel was doing too many unconstitutional things, and partied with a suspected double agent. And it's only Tuesday. www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/the-disgra...

Earlier today, @zeteo.com revealed that Israel has kidnapped an American teenager and has kept him in detention for three months, with no charges. And then hours later, only one Republican voted to even somewhat hold Israel accountable for acts like this.

Black text on a white page that reads as follows: 

Too often, homeless New Yorkers cycle from our hospitals to our streets — making it harder to continue treatment and find long-term stability. 

The City's Bridge to Home program in Manhattan ends the cycle by providing a safe place for New Yorkers to live while they receive medical care, apply to jobs, and find an apartment. The program has been a massive success.

Today, we’re expanding Bridge to Home to Brooklyn and Queens, so more New Yorkers get the help they need.

Let me make sure I have this right. Trump siphoned money away from our troops and gave it to DHS to fund his cruel immigration agenda. Then they took money from DHS... and used it to pay for a partisan political ad five weeks before the election.
