An LGBTQ affordable housing unit in DC, designed as a "safe space," is being criticized by some residents because straight people are being allowed to live there.
The project, which received a $1 MILLION taxpayer loan, has been visited by police over 10 times for reported thefts, robbery, harassment, and a DEAD BODY.
Mayor Muriel Bowser called it “a model for the whole city.”

WTF. San Francisco Mayor Daniel Lurie (D) announced they are finally ending a city program that was spending $5 MILLION in taxpayer dollars PER YEAR to give alcohol to the homeless alcoholics.
The program was used to keep alcoholics from going through withdrawal when bars and stores closed during COVID, but it continued for YEARS after the pandemic ended.

CONFIRMED: Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists adjusts Doomsday Clock to 85 seconds before midnight (CBS News, Daily Mail, Straits Times)
Independently verified by 3 sources (including syndication).
According to CBS News, the symbolic "Doomsday Clock" has advanced to its nearest point ever to global catastrophe, serving as a stark metaphor for humanity's proximity to self-annihilation. The Daily Mail echoes this grim assessment, reporting that the clock has lurched forward amid emerging global threats, pushing humankind even closer to potential oblivion. While both outlets highlight the heightened peril without specifying the exact timing, the Straits Times provides more precision, noting that the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists adjusted the clock to just 85 seconds before midnight—a record low that surpasses all previous settings. Together, these accounts underscore a shared view of escalating risks, though the Daily Mail particularly emphasizes novel dangers driving the shift.
