> The US Department of Housing and Urban Development has added a message to the top of its website blaming the looming government shutdown on the "radical left".

That’s rich coming from a department that has intentionally withheld money from our most vulnerable people this year.

It's a Hatch Act Violation.

If anyone in the DOJ cared to enforce it.

Tons of federal employees (maybe all?) received an official email blaming Democrats for the shutdown, too. Also a violation.

And actually enforcing it would be branded as "abusing government for political persecution". It's going to take someone with steel will to actually prosecute all of this crime.

Leroy Jenkins!

From our most vulnerable people. And are educated populace. And the media. And even our soldiers of you look into how these deployments work.

Can't generate money, only lose it then refuse to allocate what we have left.
