NEW: Private equity's greed is squeezing mobile home residents living off of Social Security.
Residents have had to skip their medication to deal with 125% rent increases.
But a bill from Rep. Maxwell Frost could let residents buy their parks before Wall Street swoops in.
Donald Trump swore an oath to serve the American people. Instead, he's used the presidency to enrich himself by at least $4 billion and counting.
Last night, he stood in front of the country and said we can't afford Medicaid.
This is the same man who has turned the Oval Office into a personal profit center.
President Donald Trump has proposed boosting defense spending to $1.5 trillion in his 2027 budget released Friday, the largest such request in decades, reflecting his emphasis on U.S. military investments over domestic programs. https://t.co/TRphIc6Mzo
