🚨 NOW: President Trump is getting increasingly PISSED OFF that Leader Thune REFUSES to fire the Obama/Reid Senate parliamentarian, who is blocking key legislation

"The leader has the right to FIRE the [parliamentarian] at will and put somebody else there... we get SO MANY negative rulings from her."

"She's been there for YEARS, and she was put there by Harry Reid and Barack Hussein Obama."

"It's not even BELIEVABLE that she's still there."

In the UK, between 9/2024 and 8/2025, roughly 79,130 names were removed from healthcare waiting lists because patients died before getting care.

28,908 had been waiting longer than the 18-week standard, and 7,737 had waited more than a year.

Does that feel “universal?“

Imagine your family worked for a generation to save enough money to buy a brownstone occupied with rent stabilized tenants on the Upper West Side. The family financed the purchase with a mortgage from a bank based on the premise that rents and cash flow would at least keep pace with inflation so you could pay interest and principal on the mortgage and hopefully have some cash flow left as a return on your investment.

While you had rent stabilized tenants, you were led to believe that the NYC Rent Guidelines Board would be required to adjudicate rental increases each year by taking a measure of the inflation of costs to own and operate a building and setting rental increases appropriately.

You believed the RGB would do its job as the board is comprised of two representatives each for landlords and tenants and five independent representatives that represent the general public.

Now, a new mayor @NYCMayor Mamdani is elected on the promise of freezing rents. There are about two million rent stabilized renters that benefit if rents are frozen so by promising frozen rents the new candidate for mayor buys votes and wins the election.

The new mayor achieves his objective by stacking the RGB with directors who do not follow their obligations and simply vote for a rent freeze as a preordained conclusion as evidenced by the statements of an RGB director who resigned in protest for this very reason.

Meanwhile, inflation in NYC is rampant in utilities, real estate taxes, insurance, repairs and maintenance, etc. and now your rents are frozen. Real estate is a high operating leverage business which means that frozen rents and inflating expenses will cause property cash flows to plummet and your after debt service cash flow to go negative.

I expect therefore there will be hundreds if not thousands of small NYC property owners who are now or will shortly be underwater on their mortgages, and without any cash flow to maintain their assets.

If you remember the images of the South Bronx burning in the mid 1970s, you can viscerally understand what is happening to small NYC real estate owners.

While the rent freeze appears to be short-term good news (long term it will lead to poorly maintained apartments) for 2 million NYC renters, it is bad news for the 2 million or more renters in the 1 million market rate apartments in the City because a landlord-hostile market is not likely to add meaningfully more supply and market rents will likely continue to escalate at a high rate.

All of this seems quite unfair and wrong unless I missing something?

Why am I wrong?

For disclosure: I do not own any NYC rental apartments.

The Amish don’t ask me to pay more taxes to fund their life. They work hard and they don’t try to change American society. Instead they just do their own thing and want to be left alone.

Also, their families have been here for many, many generations. Trying to compare them to 3rd world invaders who want us to give them endless benefits as they work to fundamentally alter our culture is absurd.

🚨 JUST IN: Gov. Ron DeSantis confirmed that after he finalizes the new budget, the red state of Florida will have SLASHED SPENDING for 4 YEARS STRAIGHT…

…Florida will have a budget less than HALF the size of New York, despite being similar in population

…and the state rainy day fund WILL BE 100% FULL and more than 3X THE SIZE from 7 years ago

FLORIDA CRUSHES IT AGAIN! 🇺🇸 ☀️

All with NO INCOME TAX and impending slashing of property taxes. Imagine that.

Eric Trump just flipped the script on Chris Cuomo live on-air, leaving him shocked.

Cuomo accused President Trump of going after his political opponents the moment he took office…

Eric sounded off:

“Did we, did we try and bankrupt Biden? Did we raid Biden's home? Did we try and bankrupt Biden?”

“Did we weaponize every AG and DA against Biden? Do we do that against Hunter Biden who had a laptop from hell, pictures of cocaine, illicit drug use, prostitution?”

“Did we make up a dirty dossier? About Biden, did they try and destroy Biden's marriage? Did we make up stories that Biden had secret servers in the basement of his home communicating with the Kremlin in Russia?”

“Did we strip Biden off the ballot of multiple states? Did we take Biden off of Twitter and Instagram and Facebook and try and silence his voice so he couldn't communicate?”

“Did we put Biden in a courtroom every single day for nonsense to try and keep him off of a campaign trail to try and destroy his life?”

Well done @MrPoolQ1

Scott Presler's SCORCHED EARTH Message to John Thune For BANNING Him from the GOP Convention and BETRAYING the MAGA Base:

"Dear Sen. Majority Leader Thune,

There is no greater demoralization to the base than for us to have all three branches of government, and for us to have majorities, and to not pass the very legislation after what we saw in the 2020 election, to make sure tragedies like that never happen again.

And if you campaign on closing the border and securing our elections, and stopping wars, and deportations, and you don't deliver — how can we expect to keep those majorities in the 2026 elections and beyond if you don't deliver?"

Black woman is on a bus and it’s hot. She shows a White woman is also on the bus but brought a small electric fan to keep cool

The black woman makes a video saying she’s thinking of just taking the White woman’s fan and running because it’s hot

The comments all show a clear pattern of Americans being done with this type of behavior and especially not even hiding it anymore

We don’t want to live in a society where you can’t even use a small fan to keep cool without having to worry about it being grabbed and stolen

The Supreme Court will rule on birthright citizenship tomorrow morning…

It’s not an exaggeration to say this could be the most important decision in our lifetimes.

Under the current interpretation of the 14th Amendment, a foreign citizen of another nation can cross our border illegally at 9 months pregnant, give birth to an American citizen, and then return home. Their child is now eligible for US benefits and can vote in our elections.

The Chinese can also pay to have surrogate children on US territorial islands in the Pacific, then immediately ship the babies to China to be raised under the CCP. Those children are now eligible for US benefits and can vote in our elections.

Both of these scenarios are happening. It’s simply wrong and not at all what the Amendment was intended for, which was former slaves and their children during Reconstruction.

If it stands, US citizenship means nothing.

CNN has discovered that Darializa Avila Chevalier had a burner account from 2020 to 2022 where she praised communism and communists leaders.

She favorably quoted convicted cop killer Assata Shakur on how she studied Castro and Kim Il Sung before Marx and Lenin, whose biggest crime was being white but were otherwise great thinkers.

She also complained that you couldn't achieve communism because people want too many different kinds of soup.

Avila Chevalier even did artistic criticism in which she judged works by how pro-communist they were.

It's pretty bad that people like this are winning Democratic primaries.
