Ultra MAGA!
Looks like Pelosi and the Fascist side of the Democrat party was getting rich taking money from real estate developers and planning all along to let the moratorium expire.
The Fascists would blame the GOP for not wanting to do anything to help all the soon to be homeless knowing the DNC controlled media would have a field day with it.
The Fascists's didn't expect the Marxist side of the party to step up and let the cat out of the bag and blow up the plan and with that the only place left to put blame was on Xiden because he wasn't doing anything about it even though it was Fascist Pelosi's job to fix in the first place.

Revealed: Dems took millions from real estate developers before allowing eviction moratorium to end
5-6 minutes
As the homes of millions of renters across the U.S. were threatened this week by the White House's and Congress's refusal to extend the eviction moratorium put in place by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the Democrats' inaction was directly benefiting some of the party's biggest backers in the real estate industry.
As Andrew Perez and Joel Warner reported in The Daily Poster on Tuesday, the chairman of both the real estate brokerage firm Marcus & Millichap and the real estate investment trust Essex Property Trust donated $1 million to the House Majority PAC on June 1, days after the CDC extended the moratorium until late June.
Chairman George Marcus also donated $263,400 that same month to a committee that benefits the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC) and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's campaign, and contributed at least $6.5 million to PACs that work to elect Democrats to the Senate and House.
The Daily Poster suggested that while Marcus and his companies are wealthy—with the chairman part of a group of landlords whose personal fortunes increased by nearly $25 billion since the pandemic began—both Marcus & Millichap and Essex Property Trust stood to benefit from the eviction moratorium being allowed to expire.
Marcus & Millichap, the largest commercial real estate brokerage in North America, reported that it had a "tough year" in 2020, with sales transactions down 17.9% from 2019. Essex Property Trust, which owns or partially owns more than 60,000 apartments in California and Washington and donated $23.5 million to committees that opposed rent control measures in recent election cycles, reported it was directly impacted by the pandemic and the eviction moratorium.
Essex's "cash delinquency rate" was "higher than the pre-pandemic period, but improved from 4.3% for the three months ended June 30, 2020 to 2.6% for the three months ended June 30, 2021," The Daily Poster reported.
The company is currently working "with residents to collect such cash delinquencies," and CEO Michael Schall said last week that it expects rent payments to return to normal levels "as more workers enter the workforce and eviction protections lapse."
The reporting bolstered a claim made by Rep. Ro Khanna (D-Calif.) on MSNBC last week as the Democrats failed to vote for an extension of the eviction moratorium, sparking outrage among progressives in Congress includingReps. Cori Bush (D-Mo.) and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.).
"The reason they're not bringing it for a vote is because some Democrats privately have tried to kill this bill because of special interest of Realtors and other groups," Khanna said. "And it is unconscionable that we don't have a vote on the House floor, that we're protecting some members to kill this behind closed doors and aren't being transparent. It's just wrong."
"Real estate developer money unites the Democratic Party," tweeted Jackie Fielder of Daybreak PAC last week as it became clear the Democrats would not keep the moratorium from expiring.
Sara Myklebust of Georgetown University's Kalmanovitz Initiative for Labor and the Working Poor told The Daily Poster that Marcus's donations to Democratic candidates and PACs was part of "a pattern of landlords having close relationships as a result of money and influence."
"It's not shocking, because we have seen this pattern again and again," Myklebust told the outlet. "What is shocking is that millions of people are at risk of not just becoming homeless, but also getting a deadly disease."
As Common Dreams reported last week, 4.2 million people across the U.S. say they are likely to face an eviction or foreclosure in the near future, and research (pdf) by epidemiologists at the University of California in Los Angeles showed that unhoused people are up to 50% more likely to die from Covid-19 than people who aren't facing homelessness.
In addition to Marcus's financial backing of Democrats, The Daily Posterdetailed a $2.3 million donation from private equity firm The Blackstone Group to the Senate Majority PAC and the bundling of hundreds of thousands of dollars by lobbyists for real estate interests for the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee (DSCC).
Meanwhile, advocates for reinstating the moratorium have continued to demand Democrats—both in the White House and Congress—take immediate action to stave off the crisis.
"In our interconnected economy, it is simply not an option to abandon so many Americans to financial ruin," said Morris Pearl, chair of Patriotic Millionaires. "This isn't just bad for tenants behind on rent—in the long run it's bad for landlords too."
"Letting millions of Americans be evicted over the next few months would be a disaster for the entire country, and Congress and the White House have a responsibility to stop this looming catastrophe," Pearl added.

U.S. JUDGE ORDERS BIDEN ADMINISTRATION TO RESPOND TO EMERGENCY LEGAL CHALLENGE TO NEW CDC EVICTION MORATORIUM BY 9 A.M. FRIDAY -- COURT ORDER
So bums, vagrants and others with severe substance abuse problems have a 1.5% chance of death from covid instead of 1% like the rest of us. Considering that nearly all "Unhoused" are not children, and the extremely low child mortality rate of covid is included in the total death numbers for all covid, an average bum has the same chance of dying from covid as any other adult.
They are claiming that a barely measurable increase in deaths among the vagrant population is reason to extend the mooching off landlords throughout the country. That's a reach right there but if you are against it you are not compassionate, racist and other bad things that make you a bad person.

Landlords are small business people. Small business people are overwhelmingly Repubs (esp after learning how big govt so totally screws them over), and therefore contribute support to Repub candidates. THIS is how they target their abuses: neuter repub contributors. This started when BHO took over GM and shut down a large percent of dealerships around 2009, basing his hit list on which ones were repubs. This is why small business has been so severely targeted by the shutdown, to shrink repub power. Landlords are on that list

Landlords, Real Estate Groups Ask Judge To Block CDC's New Eviction Moratorium
Authored by Isabel van Brugen via The Epoch Times,
A group of real estate entities on Wednesday night issued a legal challenge in a D.C. district court to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC) new eviction moratorium.
Landlords, real-estate companies, and property-management groups, including the Alabama Association of Realtors and its counterpart in Georgia, argued in their emergency motion that the latest eviction order (pdf) issued by the Biden administration’s CDC, exceeds the agency’s powers, according to a statement from the National Association of Realtors.
The groups requested Judge Dabney Friedrich of the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia to halt the new protections, citing the U.S. Supreme Court’s recent order that the CDC could not extend the moratorium without new legislation.
The National Association of Realtors said in its statement that roughly half of all housing providers “are mom-and-pop operators” and without rental income, “they cannot pay their own bills or maintain their properties.”
The nationwide moratorium on evictions was first implemented by the CDC in September 2020 amid the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus pandemic as some tenants struggled to pay rent.
The agency announced a 60-day moratorium on Tuesday, a day after the White House said the agency lacked the authority to do so. The new eviction moratorium will last 60 days, expiring on Oct. 3.
It is intended to target “specific areas of the country” where COVID-19 cases are surging and “likely would be exacerbated by mass evictions,” the agency said, noting that this will apply to about 80 percent of U.S. counties or about 90 percent of the U.S. population.
CDC director Rochelle Walensky in a statement cited the emergence of the highly infectious Delta COVID-19 variant, which now accounts for at least 80 percent of new cases in the country, as the reason for the emergency action.
It comes as roughly 6.5 million households are behind on rental payments, according to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. There are nearly 110 million Americans living in rental households and 19 million to 23 million of them are at risk of eviction by Sept. 30, according to a study by the Aspen Financial Security Program.
In June, the moratorium was extended for a further 30 days, with officials saying it would be the final extension. That extension expired on Saturday.
The Supreme Court ruled in late June that Congress must approve any extension to the moratorium. Last month, a federal court later ruled that the CDC had exceeded its authority in halting evictions.
White House press secretary Jen Psaki on Wednesday then defended the new eviction moratorium, telling reporters that President Joe Biden “would not have supported moving forward with any action where he didn’t feel there was legal standing and legal support.”
The Biden administration didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment by The Epoch Times.

My personal opinion is the director of the CDC ought to go to jail. If some people did start going to jail (and we should have started with Ms. Clinton) maybe some of this stupid stuff would stop. Or at least someone on their side would say NO.
To include Maricopa Co. Election Officials. Dem's in DC from TX, oops sorry in Portugal. Dems in Portugal from TX that was supposed to be in DC fighting for "voters rights".

It is sounding like the groups doing the payoffs were not the smaller landlords like we have here on the forum (and I have friends also who do this). People with a few rental properties or even a couple of apartment buildings don't have the money to lobby congress critters by the thousands of dollars, especially when some of their tenants have been paying rent.
These are the highly organized, giant, real-estate cartels that have increasingly taken over the industry both in the US and overseas. They can afford to wait things out for a time, Big Banks and other parts of the corporation funds can be used to keep things going.
Small landlords don't have these options, so I don't think they would have played much of a role in this payola scheme. Not that I think the moratorium should go on either, but Democrats (or anyone else) getting big bucks to deal with it one way or another is open corruption on a grand scale.
For once I approve of something The Squad is doing if that is in fact what they are doing (exposing the graft).
But I also think the administration needs to be taken to court very quickly over violating the constitution and a direct order from the Supreme Court. That sort of thing can destroy the Republic, even if I have mixed views on what should happen going forward (aka the US really can't have 12.5 million people on the streets if that is what would happen, which I'm also not sure is accurate).

During the recent Great Recession, some pets were left at shelters (where most of them would eventually be euthanized) while many were just set free by their owners.
Expect the same to happen again, except for many more helpless animals.

The bottomline risk here is the precedent set by the admin when they openly admit this is illegal and has been adjudicated by the USSC as so… but we’re doing it anyway. A huge FU to the USA.
Perhaps equally threatening is the fact a pissassed govt agency like the CD is being told to make law and impose fines that are not promulgated by the legislative branch. Another huge FU to the USA.
And part of that action is simply ”taking” the property of private citizens (small landlord business) forcibly and giving it to other more favored citizens (tenants). Yet another FU.
And some people think this is a legitimate government?
Yes covid is real; yes it can be lethal… but it is being exaggerated and openly exploited as a tool of hostile revolutionary takeover

Study after study (and my personal observation) is that many homeless people will refuse shelter if it means giving up their dog or cat.
This was also found to be true during fire evacuations which is why temporary shelters have changed their rules over the last few years to allow pets (usually in carriers or cages) because people died refusing to evacuate when they were told to leave their pets behind.
With homeless people, that dog may be their only real friend in the world and the dog may have prevented all sorts of horrible things from happening by being a protector. Even with cats, the bond can be very strong and many of the homeless cats are on leads and provide constant companionship, sometimes sharing their person with a dog.
Any SERIOUS long-term housing program needs to figure the pets into the equation. I am old enough to remember back when public housing did not allow pets and the really tragic decisions a lot of elderly or unemployed people had to make - that was changed by an older congressman who was horrified at seeing elderly people forced to give up their dog or cat.
This is a real issue, it isn't the largest issue perhaps but it is one and will need to be looked at if anyone is really serious about getting a handle on this problem.

There is a very few homeless people in Tupelo.
The Salvation Army, just to name one, just opened a brand new building to house, at least temporarily, homeless people. Its empty.
Again we have very few homeless people in Tupelo, and that's how they want it. The city, police, Salvation Army know who they are and what bridge they are living under. They all go by and check on them to make sure they are eating, and aren't sick, etc... They are all on a first name bases.
That is how the homeless want it. At least here.
Unfortunately one of them got run over and killed before daylight a few years back. He was going across the 4 lane to get breakfast at the nearby Quicksak, 7-11, or Shell station as others may 'em by.
But yeah any of you folks on the coast get run out by a hurricane, The Salvation Army will put you up. Just saying if you need it, there it is.
Tupelo isn't SF I realize, but they are trying to deal with it.
BTW any new people coming by and panhandling, the cops are there in minutes, pick them up and take them to the Salvation Army, and give them a list of places to get a job. It's either leave, or get a job.

Federal judge leaves CDC evictions moratorium in place
A federal judge is refusing landlords’ request to put the Biden administration’s new eviction moratorium on hold, though she ruled that the freeze is illegal. U.S.

Federal judge leaves CDC evictions moratorium in place By MARK SHERMAN 45 minutes ago
WASHINGTON (AP) — A federal judge on Friday refused landlords’ request to put the Biden administration’s new eviction moratorium on hold, though she ruled that the freeze is illegal.
U.S. District Judge Dabney Friedrich said her “hands are tied” by an appellate decision from the last time courts considered the evictions moratorium in the spring.
Alabama landlords who are challenging the moratorium, which is set to expire Oct. 3, are likely to appeal her ruling.
In discussing the new moratorium imposed by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention because of COVID-19, President Joe Biden acknowledged last week there were questions about its legality. But he said a court fight over the new order would buy time for the distribution of some of the more than $45 billion in rental assistance that has been approved but not yet used. The Treasury Department has said that only about $3 billion of the first slice of $25 billion had been distributed through June.
As of Aug. 2, roughly 3.5 million people in the United States said they faced eviction in the next two months, according to the Census Bureau’s Household Pulse Survey.
White House press secretary Jen Psaki said in a statement Friday that the administration believes the CDC moratorium is legal. “We are pleased that the district court left the moratorium in place, though we are aware that further proceedings in this case are likely,” Psaki said.
Friedrich, who was appointed by President Donald Trump, wrote that the CDC’s new temporary ban on evictions is substantially similar to the version she ruled was illegal in May. At the time, Freidrich put her ruling on hold to allow the Biden administration to appeal.
This time, she said, she is bound to follow a ruling from the appeals court that sits above her, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit. A panel of three judges appointed by President Barack Obama rejected the landlords’ plea to enforce Friedrich’s ruling and allow evictions to resume, saying it believes the CDC moratorium falls within a 1944 law dealing with public health emergencies.
If the D.C. Circuit doesn’t give the landlords what they want now, they are expected to seek Supreme Court involvement.
In late June, the high court refused by a 5-4 vote to allow evictions to resume. Justice Brett Kavanaugh, part of the slim majority, said he agreed with Friedrich, but was voting to keep the moratorium in place because it was set to expire at the end of July.
Kavanaugh wrote in a one-paragraph opinion that he would reject any additional extension without a new, clear authorization from Congress, which has not been able to take action.
Biden and his aides initially said they could not extend the evictions ban beyond July because of what Kavanaugh wrote. But facing pressure from liberals in Congress, the administration devised a new order that it argued was sufficiently different.
The old moratorium applied nationwide. The current order applies in places where there is significant transmission of the coronavirus.
But Friedrich noted the moratorium covers “roughly ninety-one percent of U.S. counties,” citing the CDC’s COVID-19 data tracker.
“The minor differences between the current and previous moratoria do not exempt the former from this Court’s order,” that the CDC lacks authority to order a temporary ban on evictions, she wrote.
She also noted that Kavanaugh’s opinion and decisions by other courts that either questioned or also found the earlier moratorium illegal raise doubts about the D.C. Circuit’s decision.
“For that reason, absent the D.C. Circuit’s judgment, this Court would vacate the stay” and allow evictions to resume, Friedrich said. But she said she was not free to do that.

Wow! The majority of judges are cowards and trsitors. This is the THIRD Federal judge who said it is unconstitutional but said no problem, we will just let it continue.
Plus the FRAUD Trump put on SCOTUS, the female one, Barret, not Kavanaugh the male fraud, just okayed colleges to force vaccination.
THE DEMON POSSESSED BITCH.
Actually, when you factor in demon possession, everything our so called leaders do is understanable.

DA: Landlord Accused of Killing 2 Tenants Handled Eviction ‘His Way' Arnoldo Lozano-Sanchez, 78, is accused of shooting three live-in tenants, two of them fatally, after an argument over unpaid rent

A Las Vegas homeowner accused of shooting three live-in tenants after an argument over unpaid rent told police he didn’t want to go through an eviction proceeding and wanted to handle things “his way," a prosecutor told a judge on Wednesday.
Arnoldo Lozano-Sanchez “made statements about the victims not paying rent and that he was certainly upset about it,” Chief Deputy District Attorney Tim Fattig said.
The prosecutor revealed that another tenant, a man, was in the house during the shooting but was not shot. The man was not identified by name.
That witness described for police Lozano-Sanchez going into a bedroom, a woman pleading for her life, multiple gunshots, and the man who was shot nine times emerging and running “for his life," Fattig said.
“He also saw the defendant exit that bedroom, smiling,” the prosecutor said.
The judge ordered the 78-year-old Lozano-Sanchez to remain jailed without bail on murder and attempted murder charges pending another court appearance next Monday.
Lozano-Sanchez was arrested early Tuesday at his small pink home after police found one woman dead outside, the man who had been shot nine times coming out the door and a woman dead in a bedroom.
The wounded man was hospitalized but is expected to survive, police said.
Make sure that when getting your eviction that you hold the tenant to every stipulation that is in the CDC moratorium. They must have applied to all rental assistance programs available (Prove it at the hearing), they made good faith effort to pay something every month (including a payment stipulation that they kept to), etc. If the landlord can prove that during the time of the CDC moratorium they for example bought a new tv, bought a new car, etc. rather than paid their rent due that they are paying revolving payments on things they purchases (pull a credit report), etc. rather than pay rent due.
There are other stipulations in the CDC moratorium. If the tenant does not take care of their responsibilities which every Judge that I know is holding them to, then you get your eviction.
The real question is can you get it served? In Florida you have to have a Sheriff serve the eviction papers. And yes, they are serving court issued evictions. It may not be true in other states.
HOWEVER here is something that you CAN do, it is up to you. Make sure that you send a late notice to every credit company ... equifax, etc. ... each and every month. Let them see how difficult it is for them to find any place else to live, get utilities turned on without a ginormous deposit, buy any new luxury goodies, etc.
Know your rights as a landlord since the court is not going to do it for you.
