Glenn Beck is sounding the alarm over Democratic New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s new housing proposal, warning that he's laying the groundwork for expanded government control over private property.
The new “Block by Block” housing plan includes taking aggressive legal action against landlords — and even transferring their properties to the tenants themselves.
“Through our new citywide campaign, Fix the City, we will focus on the worst landlords in New York City. When necessary, we will take aggressive legal action to remove negligent owners and property managers,” Mamdani said in a speech announcing his plan.

And if you were really smart, you wouldn’t live in NYC in the first place.
“I can call spirits from the vasty deep.
Why, so can I, or so can any man,
But will they come when you do call for them?“
It would be nice if NYPD might respect their oaths and duty and utterly refuse to go full Communist on command…
… but 2020-2021 doesn’t fill me with hope about LEOs and acting robotically. Not picking on NYPD specifically but that’s the context.
That’s probably the goal to help start the revolution. These people are 120 years behind. Still think this shit will fly if they get enough momentum but watch it will end in a face plant
That is essentially the core problem. They have artificially repressed rents, and granted more and more "tenants rights", to the point where landlords are no longer making any money on their properties. When that happens, expecting them to invest even more money in making repairs to a property that already is losing them. Money just isn't going to happen.
Meanwhile, the democrats are upset to the point that they file lawsuits against Trump for his name on the Kennedy Center.
BTW, Today, a FEDERAL JUDGE ORDERS TRUMP NAME REMOVED FROM KENNEDY CENTER BUILDING
Yeah it’s awesome he drives them so crazy. Another judgement that’ll be overturned and their acidic joy will turn to ashes
Ms Kimber and HarryCallahan would object to communism
Madmani is going to rub certain “families” the wrong way and they may take care of his “business”.
Elections have consequences as they say. New York City will soon find its tax base completely destroyed.
“Transferring properties to the tenants? I’m sure the tenants will begin doing repairs and renovations to the properties post-haste when that happens.”
only if financed by NYC taxpayers to the tune of 3-4 times the actual cost of any renovations actually performed, with the kickbacks being split between various nefarious governmental and NGO players ...
Islamomarxist meets US Constitution.
“Slum lords allowing their properties to fall into disrepair in the first place” because rent-controlled properties don’t produce enough revenue for repair and renovation in the first place ...
Seizing homes = hard earned money after years of hard work...annd giving them to the newcomers his Quranoc radicals.
Yes
It’s not a shame, it is far more dangerous than that and should scare the hell out of every patriotic American. There were 2,753 lives lost on 9/11, and there are still 1,100 remains that have not been identified. Nineteen MUSLIMS did this and the vile voters of NYC elected this radical communist MUSLIM as mayor. I hope NYC is destroyed and never rises again.
Ain’t communism wonderful
If this does not result in open warfare against Mandorki and his slime-mold minions, we no longer deserve to have a country. I look forward to him and his fellow turds hiding in a basement awaiting their doom. Televise it. Please.
I won’t shed a tear if he seizes the homes of people who voted for him.
Start with trump tower and see what happens.
