HUD Secretary Marcia Fudge to step down
MSN ^ | March 11, 2024

Posted on 03/11/2024 10:53:09 AM PDT by rightwingintelligentsia

Secretary of Housing and Urban Development Marcia Fudge announced Monday that she is stepping down from her cabinet position later this month -- marking only the second cabinet secretary to do so during the Biden administration.

"From her time as a mayor, to her years as a fierce advocate in the U.S. House of Representatives, Marcia's vision, passion, and focus on increasing economic opportunity have been assets to our country. I'm grateful for all of her contributions toward a housing system that works for all Americans, and I wish her well in her next chapter," President Joe Biden wrote in a statement on her departure.

Fudge sat for an exclusive interview with USA Today and said she is leaving public office for retirement. Her last day is March 22.

"Don't look for me to ever be on another ballot or another appointee or anything like that,'' she told USA Today. "I really do look forward to being a private citizen."

“President Joe Biden wrote in a statement on her departure.“

In the fantasy world of MSM Traitor Joe has the mental acuity to author statements.

Finally rich enough. An appointive cabinet gig doesn’t offer the same “in for life” bennies that an elective fed office, so one has to make hay while the sun shines.

The HUD bugdet is $73 billion. The majority of it can be zeroed out, with federal income taxes reduced commensurately - returning most of the $73 billion to the people. To whatever extent individual states want to continue anything that HUD does, they can get their state representatives to claw back some of that $73 billion in state taxes, while other states just leave that money in their citizens hands

A very very small part of the HUD budget money can be shifted to the Department of Veterans Affairs and to federal programs assisting Native Americans on their reservations.

I have sources—she shut down a wide range of corruption investigations.

What the sources do not know is why.

Every time I hear of some obscure cabinet member in this shithole junta, I assume it’s a tranny, a bald black bitch, or some other assorted pervert.

It’s a revolving door in that administration, if you can even call it that.

I’m sure we can all figure out the why, at least in the general sense. Selected targets were unselected.
