Rent.
Not housing policy. Not the abstraction. Rent. The check that goes out the first of every month before the food, before the medicine, before the gas, before the kid’s shoes. The check that disappears into an LLC that disappears into a holding company that disappears into a fund that sits on a server in Delaware and answers to no one.
A third of this country pays rent. Most of them pay more than they can afford. They are working two jobs to send money to a man they will never meet, who lives in a city they will never visit, who has decided their apartment is worth eight percent more this year than last because the algorithm said so.
That is the fix. Day one.
Cap the algorithmic price-fixing the landlord cartels have been running in plain sight. End the corporate purchase of single-family homes. Tax the institutional ownership of residential property at a rate that makes it unprofitable. Use the revenue to build. Not vouchers. Build.
You want to know why people are angry. You want to know why they will vote for anyone who promises to burn it down. Look at what they pay every month to live indoors. Look at what is left after.
Everything else can wait a week.
@GarrettHaake@megancshannon But the work of the country kept him from DonJr’s wedding… on a weekend. Has the country become less work since Jr’s wedding, or does Donald just not give a shit about his son? NVM, I know. I hope Jr knows, too.
New Yorkers hate Trump and don’t want him at the Knicks game tonight.
He’s distracting from the incredible run the Knicks are on. Let’s not allow him to ruin the vibe!
Let’s go Knicks!
@AnnCoulter@AntiToxicPeople Hilarious that he called out of Jr’s wedding, held in a weekend, because “so much going on for the country”, but now he’s gonna take a weekday and crash an out-of-state game where he’s not welcome. I hope Jr gets the memo. LOL
Keep posting this so nobody forgets that this was one of the worst events in American history.
Never has a sitting president encouraged his supporters to believe a lie so deeply that they’d be willing to attack or democracy.
@ABCWorldNews I hope the suit is unsuccessful in stopping them from spending more on this, a ton of maga show up for it, and when it rains they all stay in the hotel, or get soaked. If Donald, and/or some of his staff could be specifically pummeled by the rain, that would be awesome. Thanks.
As he was doing this, Israel had already attacked Iran again twice. Remember he can just call Bibi and tell him not to fire, right? 🙄 Anyway, now Iran is back to attacking the West Bank, too. Strong leadership. 😒
Our degenerate president is right now using the awesome power of his office to seriously damage America and the world.
Platner is running for one of 100 seats in the Senate.
they're not remotely comparable in significance (or in the level of their degeneracy)
MAGA pedophile pig, Theodore Middendorf, was sentenced to 19 years in prison for raping a 7 yr old girl. Before he entered prison to serve his time, he went to the Capitol & participated in January 6 insurrection. On January 20, 2025, Trump called him a “patriot”
& pardoned him.
@PacoTyler1@sandibachom I’m hope the fear highlights the physical pain I hope he’s in, around the clock. Rather take everything he owns and let him figure out trying to exist, but at least if we can’t jail him, we watch poor health, and humiliation, ruins his life.
@annielaud@sandibachom The Knicks thing to be another staged assassination attempt? Something is rotten with that appearance coming right after he missed Jr’s wedding. There’s no less to do than there was, and this isn’t even a weekend.
Did you notice when you watched the Kirsten Welker interview with Trump and rain stopped the interview a couple of times and how he freaked out he was
Now imagine how calm he was at Butler. Fight fight fight.
How it started How it’s going
MSG canceled @nyknicks watch parties for the narcissist-in-chief, so @NYCMayor@ZohranKMamdani set one for Bryant Park
This is how you mayor 💪🏽
