#encampments — Public Fediverse posts

... #rapidresponse, a private antihomeless org co-owned by the portfolio managing partner of seattle wealth management, is in the business of plundering from the poor and #homeless:

#Mamdani's restarting homeless sweeps, which he said he would not.
But this time, to his (small) credit, the decisions *if* to clear & *which* to clear will be made by #DHS Department of #Homeless Services, not by #NYPD (#Adams was a cop, so cops were king).
Gothamist analysis of Adams' 4.1K sweeps Jan24-Jun25, ZERO ppl found #homes, just 260 went to shelters.
