Just want to give a shout out to all who routinely submit Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests - THANK YOU!! And, for those who would like to, here's some info to help you get started. Since we can't trust the media or "news," it's time to FOIA!

Since @Gengustaveperna's interview last year, nothing has progressed. In fact, I would say the housing crisis here @forthood has regressed. Thank you @halbritz for doing more for families than leadership; acknowledging the severe systemic problem doused in corruption.

Fort Hood Family Housing just doing what it does. Left this family here after their ceiling caved in. Probably contains asbestos given the age of the home and is 18 outside. But they deserve to keep their contract. @iiicorps_cg please do something about this.

@charliedietzx @CENTCOM Don’t live on base at MacDill. The lawsuits only paint a small portion of the story. https://t.co/ojw2IkVrwY

@halbritz The fact they didn’t open an investigation into housing today gives me everything but hope that anything will ever change here

A U.S. district court judge has been asked to consider a request from Fort Bragg's housing provider Corvias to drop class-action allegations from a suit filed on behalf of Fort Bragg families. https://t.co/szl4QiCi0U

They'll fuck up again and cut corners. There will be dangerous ramifications to their shoddy work. They'll try to cover it up with limestone or some other cute design that appeals to military members and their spouses. Why would they change the way they've done things?

The house we lived in was built around 2011. It didn’t even make it 10 years. Giving this company $1.1 billion dollars to build more houses is NOT what we had in mind when we brought our concerns to @USArmy and begged for accountability.

It was still months after I made this video (a year ago today) before the Privatized Housing partner admitted systemic design flaws to it's residents.

Fallen Green Beret James F. Moriarty will be posthumously awarded the Silver Star Medal today, on his birthday, for his gallantry in which his actions were directly responsible for the survival of another Green Beret. Moriarty's family will accept the medal.

@POTUS How about ending military housing contracts? The companies get filthy rich fleecing service members, who pay to live in filthy, decaying homes, causing many people health issues. Service members have no recourse! 20+ years of lip service from the govt saying it will be fixed.
