HUGE: The RNC has SUED Colorado's Secretary of State for letting people who've never even LIVED in the state, vote in Colorado elections.
Is anyone really surprised that yet another Democrat-led state is running an election fraud scheme? I'm certainly not.
No more games. The DOJ needs to start prosecuting these fraudsters NOW.
@mcspacface@VailResorts@eastdakota#VailResorts $MTN not worth the stock price. Its HR and compensation structure are disaster, resorts starved for capital
Only about 10 resorts have value.
Rest are drag on earnings & operations. As POWDR Corp demonstrated not much of a bid for 2nd & 3rd tier resorts
Leftists are gaining traction within the Democrat Party by embracing anti-Western, third world ideologies.
What makes this all the more absurd is it is happening while we are commemorating the 250th anniversary of the most successful revolution in human history — a revolution whose tenets are irreconcilable with such ideologies.
Imagine if white baseball players treated Jackie Robinson when he broke into the league like the black lesbians are treating heterosexual white Caitlin Clark?
#Denver is in a death spiral.
One-party democrat rule has brought crime, violence, inflation, unaffordability, despair, and the complete destruction of business
In fact, it’s all of #Colorado#CoPolitics#CRE#downtown#office#2A
Denver Sales Tax since the Democrats took full control of the government:
• 2017: 8.0%
• 2018: 8.31% (parks/mental health increases)
• 2019: 8.56%
• 2020: 8.81% (housing/climate add-ons)
• 2021: 8.81%
• 2022: 8.81%
• 2023: 8.81%
• 2024: 8.81%
• 2025: 8.81–9.0%
• 2026: 9.15% (current)
Now they want to add 0.5% for affordable housing, pushing the combined rate to ~9.65–9.81%. What does ���affordable housing” even mean? Slush funds for their NGOs, Homeless and Immigrants. No society votes to raise their own taxes, yet Denver seems to do it every time. Weird. #copolitics
@wildcat_dburg Agreed
$BXMT lost $120 MM in market cap so an overaction imo
It is a best quality asset in yes a difficult market (Chicago), but I suspect if not resolved with sponsor will trade on a psf basis so 20% CECL may be accurate
$BXMT
Maturity default One South Wacker
Not a surprise, loan already a "4" rated loan
Loan basis ~ $287 psf
Strong NY-based sponsor 601W actively deploying more capital into Chicago office market
Stock loses $120 MM in market cap today
Overreaction

Colorado ranked 48th out of 50 states for net new business growth in 2024.
More businesses closed than opened, and the job losses from that net decline were the worst of any state in the country. Colorado was one of only six states where both establishment counts and employment fell.
Entrepreneurs are choosing other states.
Businesses that do open here are closing faster than new ones arrive. Colorado used to be a magnet for people building something. That reputation is being spent down fast.
What has been your experience? What needs to change?
@wildcat_dburg Yes, $BXMT has a CECL reserve relating to this loan. Hard to determine from filings though whether an asset specific reserve, included in general reserve or some combination.
