how failed policies by both parties turned poverty into a crime: same number of Americans reside in prison as there are in public housing: 2.3Million

[basquebromance]

They even slashed fed public housing budget by 17B while increasing the private prison budget by 19B effectively making prisons the number one housing 4 the urban poor (no wonder homeless rose so, but they dont mentioned that). This was Clinton/Biden.

Things like sleeping in a cardboard box or jumping turnstiles should not be considered crimes...it's inhumane and it clogs up the prisons

if we can't afford to help the poor, my friends, neither can we afford to go on tormenting them!

How America turned poverty into a crime

The poor aren't just struggling during the recession; they're being actively hounded by urban officials

Well, putting the criminals in Section 8 housing doesn't help anybody.

A guy stole a pair of Nikes last night and was arrested for shoplifting. Another guy who stole national defense secrets will be grifting at a 'rally' tonight.

The solution is simple, don't want to go to prison? Don't break the law

Is that Tonight? What time?

It will be a breath of fresh air after Biden's half-assed Nuremburg Rally homage.
