The Socialists are coming for America's Middle Class

Last week, the Besties discussed how California's "Billionaire Tax" was really a socialist Trojan Horse to go after the private assets of the middle class.

Why?

Total net worth of US billionaires: $8 trillion

Total net worth of everyone else: $170 trillion

As @DavidSacks says in the clip below, "The real money is in the middle class."

@chamath: "They need a way to open the door so they can go after the real honeypot."

@friedberg: " The real goal of this is to create, for the first time in American history, a private property asset seizure tax."

This week, some old tweets and clips went viral from Zohran Mamdani's new director of NYC's Office to Protect Tenants, Cea Weaver.

Weaver, like Mamdani, is a member of the Democratic Socialists of America. She has since deleted her account.

Some choice quotes:

-- "Impoverish the *white* middle class"

-- "Homeownership is racist"

-- "Private property including any kind of ESPECIALLY homeownership is a weapon of white supremacy"

-- "We're going to transition from treating property as an individual good to a collective good"

-- " Families, especially white families, but some POC families who are homeowners as well, are going to have a different relationship to property than the one that we currently have"

The state of things:

A first-of-its-kind private asset seizure tax is on the ballot in California.

NYC's socialist mayor just appointed a new tenant advocate who believes owning a home is "racist" and wants to change the nature of property from an "individual good to a collective good."

It’s amusing that P4 leadership ruined college football by changing the rules to benefit only them.

Now that they have created such a shitshow that doesn’t get the intended results, they blame the G5 teams that benefit from the rules they instituted.

This is fantastic.

My Thoughts On The Death Of Charlie Kirk

[Christopher F. Rufo ⚔️ @christopherrufo]

The number of people celebrating Charlie Kirk's death who work as teachers, nurses, psychologists, social workers, and other "helping professions" is immensely disturbing. We have a serious problem in this country.

[Dave Portnoy @stoolpresidente]

RIP Charlie Kirk. It doesn’t matter what your opinion is of Charlie or his politics if you don’t view this as one of the darkest days in American history than you are part of the problem.

[Kayce Smith @KayceSmith]

If you’re even remotely celebrating what happened to Charlie Kirk because you disagree with his politics, you need to reevaluate your values. It’s absolutely horrific.

[david friedberg @friedberg]

free speech. but we’ll shoot you.
something is deeply broken in the west. if we don’t fix it, eventually everyone could be ushered at gunpoint to sign the proclamations of the Truth Ministers.
