Everyone’s yelling “communism” about Mamdani’s housing plan. They’re missing the actual trick.
His own plan says the city will “engage lenders to trigger foreclosure” on landlords.
I’ve done real estate 20 years. Here’s what that means: they let the building go distressed, force the bank to eat the loan, then hand it off with NO mortgage.
A building with no loan is a money printer. And they pick who holds it.
That’s not a housing plan. It’s a wealth transfer with a loyalty program attached.
New York’s the test kitchen. California’s next.

If that addict on your street were your own son, what would you do? That is the defining question that guides my 5 step plan to fix the homelessness problem in LA. We *must* end this evil racket of corrupt politicians and NGOs who profit off the misery of these poor souls. They launder money and feed them more drugs, so they can keep their customers locked in this hell on our streets. We have a moral obligation from God to help them and make our city safe and clean for everyone. Karen Bass and Nithya Raman have forsaken this city. Time for real leadership. Time for real compassion.
Francis Ford Coppola has paid tribute to his longtime collaborator and friend Robert Duvall:
“What a blow to learn of the loss of Robert Duvall. Such a great actor and such an essential part of American Zoetrope from its beginning: ‘The Rain People,’ ‘The Conversation,’ ‘The Godfather,’ ‘The Godfather Part II,’ ‘Apocalypse Now,’ ‘THX 1138,’ ‘Assassination Tango.'”
There are two ways the violence can stop in Minnesota:
1. ICE/Border Patrol can withdraw from Minnesota, abandon the rule of law, and thereby make Minnesota a haven nationally for millions of illegal aliens while also signaling that violence against civil authorities in the conduct of their lawful duties will be successful.
-or-
2. Minnesota state and local officials can agree to assist ICE/BP in the lawful conduct of their missions like most other states, can stop inciting their citizens to violence and can stop cooperating with domestic terrorism organizers.
Choose.
Tim Pool makes it abundantly clear this woman intended to murder that cop.
Watch.. You'll see.

A DEEP DIVE -- Thoughts From a Competent Lawyer on the Minneapolis ICE Shooting:
1. The left is positively turgid about this INCIDENT. They wanted a shooting and did everything they could to set the conditions that made it inevitable, from the rhetoric of the Democrat politicians to the provocations on the street. One leftist white lady dead is a small price to pay for the martyr they wanted.
2. Note that yesterday (1/6/26), the Democrats changed from “The feds are the Gestapo” to “A zillion federal officers died defending Our Democracy, and we support these heroes- here’s a plaque!” back to “The feds are the Gestapo” the very next day.
3. The law is clear – you can use deadly force against someone threatening you with deadly force. The ICE agent had no duty to retreat. This does not matter to the left and its narrative. You will see many experts with zero actual knowledge of the law opining – including the typically terrible cadre of leftist lawyers.
4. The video is clear that the driver was heading at and came in contact with the ICE agent. He had a right to use deadly force to defend himself. This does not matter to the left and its narrative. The left will do everything it can to keep people from looking at the actual video that shows the incident. It will push video that does not show the incident clearly, as well a perjured or irrelevant witness statements.
5. The leftist narrative will be “Trump’s ICE nazis are literally murdering innocent people.” This will work on Democrats and Republican sissies. Normal people will ask why she did not comply with the officers’ orders and why she drove at a cop. Properly addressed, we can leverage the gross irresponsibility of the Dem pols and communist foot soldiers to defeat their bogus narrative.
6. The corrupt state of Minnesota will “investigate” even though its senior officials have already announced that this was murder, and the ICE agent will be indicted in state court. The feds will remove it to federal court, where the case will fail.
7. There will be a civil suit against the US government and the shooter. It will be heard in federal court. Qualified immunity will apply.
8. The shooter will be doxed and his family threatened by leftists, who will cheer this on.
9. There will be rioting in Minneapolis, probably low-grade, since too much will make the left lose sympathy. If it gets serious, look to Trump to send in the armed forces, perhaps under the Insurrection Act.
10. The anti-ICE direct actions will accelerate. Trump will not back down. There will be a decision point facing to the left: Continue the current level of actions, which will have zero effect, or escalate into (further) attempts to murder ICE agents. Some leftists will embrace escalated violence.
The Administration should focus rigorously on the following key points:
1. ICE was present in Minneapolis doing its job removing dangerous criminals.
2. Democrat politicians are creating a dangerous situation with their rhetoric and caused this incident.
3. Democrat activists have been putting people at risk with their dangerous action and it must stop.
4. The communist woman was ordered to stop but attempted to kill a federal agent, who lawfully defended himself with deadly force. WATCH THE VIDEO.
5. WE WILL NTO BACK DOWN FROM MAKING AMERICA SAFE FORM ILLEGAL ALIEN CRIMINALS, INCLUDING FRAUDSTERS.
.@StephenM on organized Radical Left violence: "With God as my witness, we are going to use every resource we have at the DOJ, Homeland Security, and throughout this government, to identify, disrupt, dismantle, and destroy these networks... We will do it in Charlie's name."
They circulated the wrong voter record of the wrong guy and claimed he was a Trump supporter/MAGA.
They photoshopped a Trump shirt on the shooter.
They claimed his family said he was right wing (it’s the opposite).
They did this fast and astoturfed it everywhere.
They are afraid.
What we know:
- Helldiver, furry, and anti fascist references on casing.
- friend says he was the only leftist in a conservative family. (As reported by Guardian, a liberal website).
What I’ve heard but I have no hard confirmation of:
- he was a member of Antifa discord servers.
If you have hard proof of the last bit, let me know.
So just a recap, we were told that it’s impossible to restructure global trade without triggering a recession. We were told that military recruitment is never gonna go up and we just have to deal with it. We were told that in order for the border to be fixed we need to pass comprehensive immigration reform and spend like $17 billion dollars. We were told that NATO countries would never agree to pay 5% of their GDP.
And yet here we are not even a year to the Trump presidency, and every single one of those things that we were told couldn’t happen happened.
It’s really hard to make the argument that the people in charge before weren’t trying to screw up this country when you see the kind of results that we are seeing now.
Chateaubriand observes somewhere that when the peak fever of the Revolution had passed, most people simply didn’t talk about it. The human mind couldn’t process the scale of the madness and violence that had overtaken the world. I think the same will be true as we exit from the era when the whole medical profession, ethicists, universities, corporations and governments cooperated to force upon society the ideas that men could become women and women men, and that developing children should be permanently altered through drugs and surgeries. The mind reels; words fail.
BREAKING: Three federal & TX law enforcement sources tell me an active shooter with a rifle & tactical gear ambushed Border Patrol agents as they arrived at a Border Patrol annex facility in McAllen, TX this morning. Local police and federal agents returned fire, killing him. I’m told this was a purposeful ambush/attack against federal agents and a press conference is planned for later this morning. No federal agents injured. Im told a McAllen police officer may have been shot, but is in stable condition.
