The Austin City Council voted today to purchase one hotel and turn it into 60 units of permanent supportive housing for people experiencing chronic homelessness. The vote to purchase a second hotel has been postponed to next week after a city council member asked for more time to gather feedback from her constituents.

Under the measure, the city will spend approximately $6.7 million from its Housing and Planning Department’s general obligation bonds to acquire one hotel and use some money from a recurring $6.5 million fund taken from the police department’s budget to provide services to the residents of the hotel. At full occupancy (which wouldn’t happen this year), services and operating costs for the hotel are expected to be about $1.6 million annually.

Many have been talking about the graphic video that showed a Tacoma police officer driving out of a group of people crowded around his car during a street racing event in Tacoma on Saturday night.

It has become a flashpoint for some activists with regards to how the officer acted and police accountability issues in general. One of the claimed organizers of the event contacted the Jason Rantz Show on KTTH to give their side of what happened.

Members of Congress who refuse to go through newly installed metal detectors to enter the House Chamber will pay.

Saying it's a tragic but necessary step right now, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi says all members must go thru the metal detectors to keep the people's House safe.

But some lawmakers have refused including Texas Republicans Chip Roy and Louis Gohmert, so the House is imposing fines.

Starting next week members of Congress who refuse will be fined $5,000 for their first refusal, $10,000 for the second, and they'll have to pay. The fines will be deducted from paychecks.

Earlier this week the House agreed to fine lawmakers who refused to wear masks on the House floor, those fines range from 500 to $2,500.

So use of coal is down and we'll take a look at the effects of that.

It seems that emmissions as a whole are down and we won't pretend we don't know why.

Miya Ponsetto is a violent anti black criminal but of course when searching for news, I see tacky, mysogynisitc commentary as if we need to trade racism for another bias.

A Northern California man impersonating Santa Claus and flying on a powered parachute was rescued Sunday after he became entangled in power lines, authorities said.

The incident happened shortly after the man took off near a school in Rio Linda to deliver candy canes to children in his community. He flew into a maze of power lines and wound up suspended in them, a Federal Aviation Administration spokesman told KCRA-TV.

Florida man rides airboat on neighborhood streets, deputies say

Hey gang.

This is a straight up hodge podge mix of vibes in the news we land on.

I gotta get to another shift and do some more housework and We'll be ready to do another Thomas Frank.

Hdy gang. 

So we danced around with this disingenuous "writer". for the second half which went a little over 2 hours. 

This guy literally argues in favor of doing a bad job and irresponsible play. 

Yes he actually used the word "play". 

Yes. It was funny but at the same time, we found this be some super irresponsible writing.
