Trump Admin Cuts Homeless Aid: Just Not The Right Kind of 'Support'
Funny, isn't it, how the 'administration' can quietly gut a $2.6 million lifeline for the nation's most vulnerable. Yet, there's always plenty of noise—and money—for other priorities. Like, say, the $3.3 billion in annual military aid the U.S. provides to Israel, guaranteed for years to come through legislation and presidential commitments, regardless of which 'administration' is in power. That
budget line, mysteriously, never seems to face quiet cuts; only 'enhancements.' One might wonder if the 'support' that gets cut always seems to be for actual Americans in need, while the 'support' for foreign military operations, often tied to lucrative lobbying, remains as ironclad as ever. Perhaps disabled Americans should consider rebranding themselves as a strategic geopolitical asset to
qualify for more consistent 'outreach' and 'access' funding. Because $2.6 million for folks on the streets? Apparently, that's just too much 'flexibility' for states to handle.
