The Founding Fathers are not turning over in their graves&#8211;they are spinning like tops!<\/p>\n<p>The article reports:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><strong>Communists have always, invariably, hated the middle class. That&#8217;s why their policies destroy the middle class; they need the impoverished masses, over whom they can rule, and the wealthy class (of which they&#8217;re a part). Everyone else is an obstacle to their communist agenda.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><strong>&#8230;&#8221;I think that the United States public policy has done a really, really good job of pitting cash-poor homeowners and working class homeowners and middle class homeowners against renters,&#8221; Weaver said. &#8220;And we need to figure out how to navigate that as organizers. It&#8217;s really quite diffiuclt, right? Because, yes, Blackstone is a bigger and worse target than like, Mrs. Smith who owns 15 buildings, but Mrs. Smith who owns 15 buildings still, like, kind of stucks and has a lot more stability than renters. And there&#8217;s more of them than there are of the Blackstones.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><strong>&#8220;So it&#8217;s just like this challenging dynamic that white middle-class homeowners are a huge problem for a renter-justice movement,&#8221; Weaver added.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><strong>She&#8217;s intentionally conflating two things: the ownership of rental properties and homeownership. Weaver hates both, of course, so conflating the two is part of her agenda.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The article concludes:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><strong>Thankfully, the Constitution prevents the outright seizure of property, but as we&#8217;ve seen with civil asset forfeiture and all that, there are ways for the government to get around those pesky Constitutional rights.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><strong>Has Weaver&#8217;s mother sold her $1.6 million Tennessee home yet? Has Weaver herself moved out of Crown Heights after complaining about gentrification?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><strong>The answer to both of those questions is no, and that&#8217;s what we should tell Weaver: No. You&#8217;re not getting our property.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Another great example of &#8220;do as I say, not as I do!&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On Thursday, Townhall posted an article about Cea Weaver, director of the New York City Mayor&#8217;s Office to Protect Tenants, and her plans for New York City.
