Even HUD is hyper-partisan now

[Billiejeens]

He’s using government employees and government resources to attack Democrats.

How far are you willing to let him go with these efforts?

For me,

There is no limit.

And there ya go. I appreciate your candor.

I wish we'd get more honesty like this.

It takes a lot to shock me at this point, but this one came pretty close. HUD is the Department of Housing & Urban Development. HUD's current home page:

I know that MAGA will defend this because it speaks their language, but there was a time when federal departments stayed completely out of partisan politics. For obvious reasons. Now, it's just another partisan organization.

Our Founders warned against this kind of division, but We the People evidently just don't care about that any more.

This is what fascism looks like OP.

Enjoy it while it lasts.

LOL, Fascism would be arresting a few Dem senators to allow the vote to pass.

But keep pretending that fascism is everything the right does, not matter how stupid you sound.

 

[MarcATL]

Yes, the other side uses neutral language like "FASCIST!" and "NAZI!"

If the cap fits, wear it.

 

[Marener]

Every press conference is an example. The life of Julia is just an egregious cause of the government mommy and daddy all progressives want.

“The life of Julia” isn’t an egregious case. It’s not a case at all.

You are clueless

Bullshit, through the decades agencies changed positions based politics. IRS under Obama is one instance.

 

[Dorian Mode]

They have absolutely no idea what I'm saying in the OP.

This is completely normal for them. Happens all the time.

Always the same shit with you. You're like a delusional, mentally deranged woman always saying "no one understands me!" Try making some ******* sense every now and then.

 

[postman]

The website is telling people what Trump wants to tell them. He's the government.

Dems can end this simply by voting on the CR.

It's not promoting any single candidate; it's telling people what needs to happen.

So if Mondani is elected mayor of NYC, they can put antisemitic messages on all the NYC websites?

 

[Billiejeens]

You think his antisemitic attitude will not be understood regardless?

 

[martybegan]

I would LOVE for him to try it.

I am all for people being open about what they believe.

Trump does it out in the daylight, where all can see.

Dems do it in the shadows.

 

[Eman623]

It's not just the radical left that shut down the government.

 

[Billiejeens]

It's not just the radical left that shut down the government.

99% of the left is radical

 

[Clipper]

Yes, because neo-cons hijacked the party.

You mean neo-cons who never thought a fascist like Trump would be elected to the W.H. by you clueless idiots?

That was the lib media who never, ever thought Trump would get elected. It was so funny how they focused on him in the 2016 debates. They wanted the big ratings with Trump, but it all backfired!

 

[Nobody911]

That's obviously the rise of Trump Deep State. Make the king of America great again! lol.

The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) is currently displaying a highly partisan message on its website blaming the government shutdown on the "Radical Left." The message accuses the "Radical Left" of shutting down the government and inflicting pain on the American people unless their $1.5 trillion demands are met. This messaging reflects the Trump administration's approach to attribute the shutdown to Democrats and differentiate from the Republican-controlled Congress and White House needing Democratic support for funding.

This political messaging on a federal agency website is unusual and has been called a blatant violation of the Hatch Act, which restricts political activities by federal employees to ensure nonpartisan administration of federal programs. An ethics group has filed a complaint about HUD's message on those grounds. HUD officials defended the statement by saying it aims to focus on the impact of the shutdown on Americans rather than partisan blame.

The government shutdown started October 1, 2025, after Congress failed to approve a funding extension, with Democrats opposing a Republican bill to maintain funding without extending Affordable Care Act subsidies, leading to this stalemate. Hundreds of thousands of federal employees are being furloughed, and many government services, including those related to housing, are affected.

HUD is working to keep critical services online despite the shutdown, while political blame is exchanged between parties publicly and within government communications. nahb+5

They thought that they were handing the Hildabeast a sure victory.

NO partisan messages. There never HAS been such messages on department sites.

I thought I had made that simple and clear enough. Evidently not.

I never said there was, I asked, IF it had said trump was responsible, would you have criticized it. You made no such clarification.
