Start mass deportations and the homeless problem will disappear.

My father is being taken care of quite well by the government. All Veterans could use more benefits.

Interesting how you focus on negatives and not positives.

Only an anti Trump lib could find something bad about a drop in homelessness...the fact is many vets stay as far away from assistance as they can...they want nothing to do with shelters and programs that would help them.....they would rather stay on the streets....

I guess the next story will be the economy is soaring but women and children still hungry....LMFAO

The vets have to suffer so we can provide more freebies to illegal aliens.

CUMMINGS’ 7th DISTRICT: Wilborn Nobles of the Sun looks into Baltimore’s 7th District, and found this: Cummings’ congressional district received just under $15.7 billion in grants, benefits and other assistance from the federal government in fiscal year 2018, according to Newsweek’s analysis of the federal awards data compiled by USAspending.gov. By comparison, districts like Indiana’s 7th (at $16.5 billion), New Jersey’s 12th (at $17.2 billion) and Pennsylvania’s 4th (at $27.4 billion) all received more money in the same period, according to Newsweek’s website.
