if he can't suppress Epstein Gate.

C'mon Dems, stay on the offensive, ask for the release of the Epstein autopsy.

Reagan destroyed the state psych hospitals decades ago.

As much as they keep talking about "mental health", the first thing they do is cut funding for anything to do with that. It even became a battle to try to get "red flag laws" in place.

Trump team revokes $11 billion in funding for addiction, mental health care

These are a bunch morons lead by a complete idiot who can’t process cause and effect or consider the ramifications of one thing on another.

who espouse selfishness as their primary belief system.

Scatter them to make them easy pickings by claiming they are all going to "treatment centers" that don't exist.

Sound familiar?

that’s for holding people basically kidnapped by ICE….never mind

Illegal aliens vs just plain undesirable. The Nazi worked through some of the same issues.

“iron out”

Jeebus, how about any kind of planning or consideration of how one stupid action might effect another of his stupid actions.

🙄

A head count is necessary for plausibility reasons. Alive, dead, dying… It doesn’t matter.

That will help their mental health.

Trump’s well documented past in human trafficking makes him uniquely qualified. It’s the last thing left to exploit.

first they came for the immigrants ...

All unfunded of course. And the homelessness is partially the result of that.

I know a child who was stuck in an ER for nearly a week waiting for a bed to open in a mental health facility. And drug treatment centers? What a laugh. I know of a drug addict who was excited to have found a spot opening up in a center several hundred miles away. Unfortunately, he OD'ed before he could get into it.

The local authorities would put homeless mentally ill people on buses
to the next big city located to the west. It was sad.

Trump wants to see no:
homeless people
veterans
people with physical differences
children, well no boy children evidently
black people
brown people (unless they work for him for pennies on the dollar)
DEMs
people who vote for DEMS
FBI agents with warrants
wind turbines
men in kilts crapping in holes on his golf course
Headstone for his first wife's grave
people of modest means with homes in places he covets
comedians who understand the assignment
people who insist on their rights
Obama
ACLU lawyers
companies that don't recognize him as 'the boss'
Judges
E. Jean Carroll
contractors with invoices
journalists with voices
honest medical doctors
universities that practice educating
solar panels
EVs
EV charging stations
blue sky, actual or on line
... more, but my typing fingers are tired

They work the list every day and are having the time of their lives.

I hope they rot in hell.

… how will it all be paid for too?

First, they came for the immigrants, but I didn't care because I wasn't an immigrant.

Then they came for the homeless....

(You know what comes next)

well, for holding non-white people kidnapped by ICE so….

…. the poor, liberals, democrats, teachers and their unions, scientists, environmentalists, students,
and so on will be deported to an ICE prison and international prisons too and people will start dying
from being shot, diseases, hunger, torture, exposure to heat or cold.

ICE now has a budget bigger than the entire Russian military and it will be used on a fascist war
on the American people.

The irony here is that if there was ever an apparatus* to take away people’s guns, this would be it.

*if that’s the right word

should begin at the top.

The homeless camps should be called "Trumpvilles." Do you think that will catch on?

Make it all nice and clean.

but i can not imagine what trump expects in a "treatment center."

… for detention facilities. They have plenty of resources to “deal with the problem” of homelessness, in their cruel, heartless way.

Not all homeless people have mental health or addiction problems. For some, it’s a matter of lack of financial resources. It’s worrisome that being poor could result in deportation.

We don’t much about that anymore huh?

The Obama Administration reduced Vet homelessness by 50%

They no longer exist. The money to support them dried up decades ago, and Trump has essentially gutted all the agencies that could help bring them back.
We're talking about 10's of billions of dollars to re-create them, and billions more each year to maintain them.
As usual, Trump plays king, makes decrees, and expects someone else to do the work.
Well Donnie, in the immortal words of Dirty Harry, "that's not gonna happen".
It's all part of his growing dementia.

ovens.

"clearing" just moves them and wastes money that could
be used to get them back on their feet.

and believe me, I was neither drug addicted nor mentally disabled at the time. What I was.. was just divorced and BROKE. Ex's divorce attorney ran for state senate the following year and won. I'll let you figure who got the best of the deal out of the divorce. grrr Finally managed to get a job (this was in the mid-80's) and make a deal with one apartment complex that would work with me until my first paycheck came in. Until then, daughter and I lived in my Plymouth Horizon in a Best Buy parking lot. And this was what... 40 years ago?

Now we've had inflation, greedflation, a Pandemic, and "depressed economies" for decades at a time... all the while rents and everything else goes sky high. People are forced out of their homes via foreclosures, or sell them any way they can to get money into their hands (and to the other creditors bearing down on them) via the "We Buy Ugly Houses" companies. But the general notion put out there are people are homeless camping because they WANT to... or because they spend all their money on drugs or booze. And ya know what? I wouldn't blame those people buying a bit of drug or booze once in a while to escape the poverty and despair. But that may NOT be what landed them there in the first place! Especially not when you have whole families living hard...
