HUD funds frozen! Our unhoused neighbors are in danger. Our housed neighbors with Rapid Rehousing and Permanent Supportive Housing vouchers are in danger. Our homelessness service systems are at risk. People will die without these funds. #hud #alt-gov #homelessness #poverty #altgov #socialwork

This guy has a nice clean run down in the mornings and evenings. Good transcripts too if you're like me and prefer visual information. Helps me stay informed without doom scrolling and being blasted with misinformation and other people's fears (which are valid, but leads me to emotional exhaustion)

Suggestion to Americans: If you used a current bank account with funds on a recent tax return, it may be wise to contact your bank and request a change. Account and routing numbers are accessible, and Elon Musk’s staff have access to this information. Stay safe and protect your assets.
