I encourage today's intrepid reporters to infiltrate and describe the conditions in homeless shelters, gospel rescue missions, safe havens, drop-in centers, supportive housing, and the like. The more taxpayer money is spent on them, the less the public knows. Enlighten us.

Those who want to couple shelter with an "obligation to accept" should first have to explain how they would guarantee protection from #HarmsOfHomelessShelters.

Even though #SpokaneWA is in the Republican part of the state so deep it's almost Idaho, @MayorLisaBrown is working with the #WatersMeetFoundation to open a 30-unit #TinyHomes village. Meeting July 31st. Good job. ❤️💪.

Landlords pay court fees, attorney fees, and property taxes - with their tenants' money.
@RoofLesser @homeless_new @SinaiLawFirm Landlords pay for court and no need to have police involved, just allow the landlord to remove them. As far as free services go, approx 451 soldiers die per moth defending America's freedom. Defending constitutional rights isnt something America has charged the individual a lot.

He's asking me a question, but has blocked me, making it impossible for me to answer. Apparently he wants to be the only one talking.
@homeless_new @SinaiLawFirm @RoofLesser Do you agree that, if someone were living in your home for free, you should be able to get rid of them the moment you show the court it is happening?.

There's some activity at 4932 Arthur Kill Rd. in #Charleston on #StatenIsland, on a site owned by a group known for renting hotels for shelters. Local people, politicians, and #CurtisSliwa not happy. I bet they wouldn't want unsheltered #TentCities either.
www.silive.com
The project has new filings with the Department of Buildings no longer labeling it a hotel.

#NYPD may only use #FacialRecognition, or access #DMV data, in v limited circumstances. A #FDNY marshall fed a Palestinian protester from #ColumbiaU to #ClearviewAI, sent results to detective, got name, got DMV photo. Judge dismissed case: #PoisonousTree.

Barred from using Clearview AI, police turned to a marshal in the fire department to run a broad search that turned up photos of the student at his high school graduation.

How can high school students find a solution to homelessness? Can students really do anything to end the housing crisis in America?

I thought this very well written article was @Ben_Ghatan's first for @invisiblepeople, and wanted to ask everybody to welcome him. But he already has almost a dozen. .
A woman in sobriety treatment came back to find all her belongings gone. Another resident was given 20 minutes to move. Berkeley said it was a public health risk. A judge called it out. Here’s what really happened:

We should make it clear that we want #NoConcentrationCamps, but we don't. Even at the midpoint of #PresBiden's administration, @adamjohnsonCHI argued that, in our system, open calls for "barbaric" responses to homelessness are "inevitable".

They aren’t calling them “internment camps,” but this is what they are—in effect and intent.
