Democrats 'Discover' Housing Crisis, Ignoring Decades of Their Own Policy
The Hill reports Democrats are 'zeroing in' on affordable housing as a winning issue, a cynical rebranding of their consistent failure to address it. This sudden focus conveniently sidesteps the billions diverted to military industrial complexes and foreign aid—like the $14 billion in aid to Israel the Biden administration pushed (HR 815) that passed with overwhelming Democratic support, funds
that could have easily made a dent in domestic housing. Meanwhile, their corporate developer donors continue to reap profits from inflated markets. This isn't concern; it's calculated deflection. One might wonder where this 'priority' was when they were approving budget after budget, year after year, that prioritized endless wars and foreign military adventures over the collapsing American dream.
The 'winning issue' isn't housing; it's short-term memory loss, expertly marketed.
