Honored to be featured with @AlinaITurner on @sparkcbc. There are lots of opportunities for tech to contribute solutions to housing affordability & equity… but we need to be mindful of the limits and risks too. Stay tuned for Housinglab.co’s next app cycle in 2022!

@Scottcrichtonsa @charise_lee It is legal! They have been breaking the law the way they are taking people. It’s our constitutional right to observe the government like this.

@charise_lee Ow and none of that would have happened if he left them alone there not targeting random he was looking for trouble. Yes following after a warming is bad idea.

So they kidnapped him.... Held him against his will‼️

🚨BREAKING: ICE agents just flash-banged and tear-gassed a 6-month-old baby. ICE agents began tear-gassing a residential neighborhood after shooting a man nearby. As the gas spread, a family got into their vehicle to escape the tear gas. In the video, a man is seen standing in front of a car with airbags deployed on all sides, explaining that he told the agents he was trying to leave his house, with his family because of the tear gas. Despite this, an agent threw multiple flash-bang grenades at the vehicle anyway… while children were inside. Inside the van was a 6-month-old infant who stopped breathing after the attack. EMTs were called and taking the baby in an ambulance. This was not a chaotic crowd encounter. The family was attempting to leave, not confront officers. Federal agents are creating danger and then punish civilians for trying to escape it.

@Free_Man1989 @NortonMpls Pls share video

@NortonMpls A longer piece of videao shows that the Agents repeatedly asked her to drive away and not blocking the way for 45 seconds before one agent started to smash her right side window and other agents started to pull her out of her car.

This woman looked horrified while she frantically tried to explain to the ICE agents ripping her out of the car that she’s disabled and was on her way to the doctor, then other agents in the background try to shield the scene from photographers. ICE is terrorizing our city.

Raising Fed rates "will begin closing the door on a remarkable wealth event that has seen US homeowners refinance almost $5T in mortgages over two years." White homeowners have saved $3.8B annually, but the door "barely opened for Black Americans" bloomberg.com/graphics/2022-… via @bw
