They're legislating the start of the burger reich final solution.

as it has been noted elsewhere, this is almost identical to the policies being pioneered in california under gavin newsome and los angeles under karen bass. they're using similar justifications to undergird a similarly violent escalation against unhoused people with nowhere else to go. it's becoming plainer and plainer daily that newscum is trying to position himself as the liberal Hitler alternative and the trump people are cribbing his notes accordingly.

It's okay, when we elect another Dem prez they're gonna get rid of this. Right? Surely they won't quietly expand staff, increase the budget, and hand off a well-oiled fascism machine to the next GOP prez like they did with ICE.

The plan for the 21st century is just to return to the late 1800s. That period in the US is one of the inspiration for Nazis. These dudes aren't fantasizing about being Hitler, they seem themselves as Rockefeller.

Speak of compassion in the system of death. Humane becomes a word not of real humanity to a real person, but only the tone one takes when speaking of animals. When they make the kill chambers, they will speak of them kindly.

I did a short analysis of this order in the news mega here, my take on it was essentially what you summarized. The language leaves open the ability to detain any unhoused person in any facility the state has available for any reason they deem necessary, they already could black bag whoever for "national security", now they can based on mental health criteria that the fascist-aligned Department of Health can make up as they see fit. So while it is aimed at homeless individuals and encampments, it sounds like the order could be used for basically anyone.

rovide assistance to State and local governments, through technical guidance, grants, or other legally available means, for the identification, adoption, and implementation of maximally flexible civil commitment, institutional treatment, and “step-down” treatment standards that allow for the appropriate commitment and treatment of individuals with mental illness who pose a danger to others or are living on the streets and cannot care for themselves.

I used to work in supportive housing for formerly homeless individuals with mental illnesses and/or substance abuse issues. The vast, vast majority of them just need a car worker to keep them on track of things. “Mental Illness” doesn’t exclusively mean “violently deranged,” it means things like PTSD, bipolar, depression. Put those people into a sanitarium will just make things worse for them.

ensure that discretionary grants issued by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration for substance use disorder prevention, treatment, and recovery fund evidence-based programs and do not fund programs that fail to achieve adequate outcomes, including so-called “harm reduction” or “safe consumption” efforts that only facilitate illegal drug use and its attendant harm;

Every public health expert agrees harm reduction has the best outcomes.

These actions shall include, to the extent permitted by law, ending support for “housing first” policies that deprioritize accountability and fail to promote treatment, recovery, and self-sufficiency; increasing competition among grantees through broadening the applicant pool; and holding grantees to higher standards of effectiveness in reducing homelessness and increasing public safety.

So fix homelessness, but don’t support housing people, but also increasing the number of applicants for the thing we’re not supporting via deregulation, but also increasing regulatory oversight on them. Very coherent.

I want homeless people to then take landowners down with them by calling them accomplices. After all, homeless people couldn’t have committed their “crime” if porky wasn’t such a gluttonous pig.
