@SocialistMMA @BrianMcGinnisNC @DrDisaffiliate Are you still coming to Chicago? @SabbySabs2 said she might be on film tour, so probably no. https://t.co/OnvoYIFsan

A U.S. Marine Corps veteran was removed from the Senate Armed Services Subcommittee on Readiness and Management Support hearing on Wednesday for protesting against military action in Iran.

Brian McGinnis, a Green Party candidate running for Senate in North Carolina, was forcibly removed by U.S. Capitol Police and Sen. Tim Sheehy (R-MT), who said following the confrontation that he "decided to help out and deescalate the situation."

@MaryJohanna6 @GreenPartyUS @USGAO Because when we lift the caps on Medicare, we will also need to lift the caps on FSA and HSA to #EatTheRich but free health care advocates tend to leave those details out.

@wsyx6 Well that's good... 2025 is high school peaking right now 🤷🏾

They aren't just buying houses. They are dismantling the American Dream, piece by piece, with a playbook so sinister it would make a Bond villain blush.

A few weeks ago, BlackRock allegedly bought 50,000 homes. Then, they sold three to themselves for more than double the price.

Your neighbor's home value just "doubled" overnight. Congratulations. Now you can't afford the property taxes to live there anymore.

This isn't an accident. It's a calculated corporate heist. Here is their step-by-step playbook:

STEP 1: THE HUNT
They use algorithms and vast data to identify stable, middle-class neighborhoods with untapped "growth potential." These are your tree-lined streets, your good schools, your community.

STEP 2: THE BLITZKRIEG
They show up with unlimited corporate cash. They don't need mortgages. They offer 20%, 30%, even 50% above asking price. Imagine you list your home. A young family makes an offer. Then a corporate entity swoops in and says, "We'll pay $100k more, in cash." The family never stood a chance. The community is gutted before the "For Sale" signs even come down.

STEP 3: THE SQUEEZE
Regular families are now permanently priced out. How do you compete with a bottomless wallet? You don't. The dream of homeownership is extinguished on your own street.

STEP 4: THE ILLUSION
Once they control a critical mass of homes, the real magic happens. They sell a handful of properties to shell companies they already own. It's a game of three-card monte, but with the roof over your head.

STEP 5: THE NEW "REALITY"
Those fake, inflated sales to themselves are now logged in public records. Suddenly, a $300,000 home is "worth" $700,000. This becomes the new, fraudulent "market rate."

STEP 6: THE FINAL NAIL - THE TAX TRAP
This is where they force you out. Your property taxes are reassessed and TRIPLE based on their fake sales. The elderly couple on a fixed income, who paid off their home 20 years ago, can't afford $15,000 a year in taxes. The young family that scraped together a down payment is now house-poor.

THE ULTIMATE INSULT: YOU WILL OWN NOTHING, AND YOU WILL BE HAPPY TO RENT FROM THEM.
They created the problem. They priced you out. And now, they become your landlord. The mortgage payment would have been $1,800. Your new rent to them is $2,500. You are now a permanent tenant in your own neighborhood, funding the very machine that evicted you.

This isn't capitalism. It's a hostile takeover of the foundational pillar of American life. It's financial warfare against the middle class.

@SocialistMMA We already witnessed previous coup attempts by the US in Venezuela. The country has been besieged by brutal sanctions without cause which left the most vulnerable Venezuela suffer. https://t.co/QClJMczr5G

@anthonyzenkus We also have to reclaim Congress’s constitutional power to issue money directly into circulation as public money rather than private debt-based money. Our "Greening the Dollar" platform plank would prevent future AI or tech bubbles from triggering bailouts at taxpayers' expense

Do y’all understand how terrifying it is that regular looking people wearing masks and street clothes are jumping out of unmarked cars and snatching people off the streets?

This isn’t ICE. This is the gestapo.

3I/ATLAS light up the skies? Feels like those old Talmud of Jmmanuel prophecies—‘signs in the clouds’ hitting different in 2025. Solar flares got me restless too. What’s this comet really telling us? #UAP #SpaceWeather #Disclosure https://t.co/Yw2QIhmbTs
