You can blame one party leader, Obama, and his left media propaganda machines. America is in a fight to save the Republic. The communists (politely called socialists) are trying to overthrow our economic and societal system of government. Communism contradicts our Constitution which is based on legal and economic principles designed to protect private property, individual liberties and capitalism. It does not support communist state control of industry and collective economic systems. They want to open the boarder, pack the Supreme Court and ban the Electoral College. If these communists advocate an overthrow of our economic system it should be considered treasonous and not just exercising their right to free speech.
@Real_RobN@Real_K1776 You might want to dig more into the real facts. This is misinformation . There was a gofund me that raised $1million and the Texas legislators approved funds to supplement State Security grants.
CONSPIRACY THEORY NO MORE:
Stephen Miller: “The Democrat Party, via the Biden-Harris Terrorist Administration devised a scheme to import illegal aliens into the country by the millions — granting them ‘parole,’ which gives them work permits, which gives them Social Security numbers, which gives them access to the voting booth — and finally hooking them on welfare like Hunter Biden hooked on drugs, all with the sole purpose of participating in U.S. elections and ultimately overthrowing the Constitutional Republic of the United States.”
The whole f**king is seditious,

@SenAdamSchiff Interesting. Comrade Schiff, whose communist party wants government owned grocery stores and takeover of industry is calling others a politburo of cronies. Typical
Thune is again using pro-forma sessions to make pretend the Senate is still in session, to block Trumps recess appts
Join me in calling on Trump to use the power vested in him, under (Art- II- Sec,3) to call the Senate back into session... until they Pass the Save America Act

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.

@ChrisMurphyCT Umm! The US has spent $195 billion on the Ukraine / Russia war and what have we gained? In Iran the U.S. has destroyed Iran’s nuclear weapons capabilities which benefits the World. Go away Murphy, all you have left is propaganda crap.
I keep seeing liberals ask if we're happy now that Trump dismantled the Dept. of Education
When Carter wanted the teachers union's endorsement in 1979 he established the Dept of Education
The USA was #1 in education at the time
46 years years and $4.1 TRILLION later we're #40
So YES!! I'm thrilled that worthless agency is gone!!

Anti-Israel.
Anti-America.
Anti-Western Civilization.
Why am I the only Democrat in the U.S. Senate that refuses to excuse this or defend any of those self-identified communists?
Look at the rise of Socialism since Obama/Biden were in office. The cost to America is beyond calculation. Over 15 million illegal immigrants resulting crime & healthcare costs. The cost of sanctuary cities in the billions , the billions in fraud under your party’s leadership. You and your comrades just blame others. Pitiful
