Notice how Dems were careful to omit mortgage payments and property taxes from their not-a-law moratorium. That’s how you know this is pretend-to-care theater. It’s a Marxist grab for private property rights, period.
The government shut down the economy and prevented people from generating income, even arresting those who tried. Now they expect property owners, many themselves middle class, to pay for the gov’t’s mistake.
Republican governors and lawmakers in every state need to vociferously push back against this unconstitutional, regulatory grab of intrastate commerce.
Only 12% of the billions in taxpayer dollars allocated for renters’s aid has actually made its way to renters. Why are Dems sitting on this money while demanding property owners to eat the costly consequence of the gov’t's stupid lockdown decision? washingtonpost.com/business/2021/…

Republicans should hold a press conference and have as speakers the police officers from across the country who had to deal with violent rioters that burned down city blocks, attacked federal buildings, and beat people in the streets all last year.
It’s also a total lack of listening comprehension. Let’s look at the actual sentence said!
“The idea you need a weapon that can have the ability to fire 20, 30, 40, 50, 120 shots from that weapon, whether it’s a 9-millimeter pistol or whether it’s a rifle, is ridiculous. I’m continuing to push to eliminate the sale of those things.”
Biden isn’t talking about magazines.
First — my Glock isn’t an “assault weapon.” I don’t have a 120 round mag. The vast majority who own AR-15s are law-abiding people who did not get their rifles illegally. Rifles are not the favored weapon of choice for violent offenders ucr.fbi.gov/crime-in-the-u…
Democrats refuse to enforce full penalties for repeat offenders (ex twitchy.com/sarahd-313035/… ) and instead blame the resulting increased homicide rate on law-abiding gun owners.
New York has some of, if not the, strictest anti-2A laws in the nation: Defining anything accepting a detachable mag as an “assault weapon," registration, universal background checks, ammo restrictions, mag capacity restrictions, storage requirements, doctor reports, more.
Why don’t these laws work? Because the problem isn’t the law-abiding. The problem is the repeat offenders and ridiculous judges like this one nypost.com/2021/06/09/how…
Yep. @Twitter took over 200k in just the last several months and delete on average 1k a day. I noticed a 30k drop overnight once and began taking a screenshot a day to track it. It lost its value as a platform with no real, organic, measurable reach.
Run your platform in whatever scared way you want, just don’t pretend that you’re fostering anything but an echo chamber of confirmation bias and mob rule. It stopped being a place reflective of real conversation a long time ago.
Meanwhile, most of the tweets capslocking “gun whore” or “hope you die” stay up while people are suspending for innocuously mocking mockable journos. This platform is the social media version of “Caillou.”
I wonder why @twitter@jack don’t just delete all my followers at once instead of this drip drop 1k follower deduction every day and a half. Hundreds of thousands deleted since 12/14/20. I’ve even had to refollow my own husband repeatedly. I’m sure it’s just a glitch.
I’ll stay until they shut me down entirely (yes, I am at other places so unnecessary for folks to suggest) but let’s stop pretending that @twitter in any way represents real organic discussion or reach. It used to be cool, now it’s just basically an ant farm.
@Twitter For fun I did an experiment since 12/20 and screenshot followers near daily. Lists never changed, followers did, and I kept having to repeatedly follow actual IRL friends who had to do the same. Again, I’m sure it’s just a glitch.
