Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis surely gets points for this one:
Mitch McConnell needs to go.
Follow the money trail.
Tenants pay rent to their landlord. But landlords generally don’t pocket the money; they usually turn around and pay a significant portion of the money to a bank to service the mortgage on the property.
Allowing landlords to evict tenants won’t really help landlords all that much. Evicting a tenant who can’t or won’t pay rent doesn’t produce any income for the landlord. Removing any temporary stops on these legal procedures will allow banks to go forward with foreclosings. Banks, which are major corporations owned by rich people, are going to start receiving a windfall of commercial properties.
It’s defined in New York State law.
“Serious injury” means a personal injury which results in death; dismemberment; significant disfigurement; a fracture; loss of a fetus; permanent loss of use of a body organ, member, function or system; permanent consequential limitation of use of a body organ or member; significant limitation of use of a body function or system; or a medically determined injury or impairment of a non-permanent nature which prevents the injured person from performing substantially all of the material acts which constitute such person’s usual and customary daily activities for not less than ninety days during the one hundred eighty days immediately following the occurrence of the injury or impairment.

I was under the impression that it usually didn’t work that way. From my recollection, and all the cites on the web that I can find in a casual search, which probably doesn’t cover every case, the bank sells the property and then only keeps the balance of the loan: the rest is returned to you.
Now, that doesn’t mean that if you have a $300,000 home and default on a $150,000 loan that you’ll be getting $150,000 back. The bank has no reason to keep it on the market until they can get a decent price. They want to hold onto the property for as short a time as possible so they sell at the low end of the market.
Mitch McConnell needs to go.
I’m thinking we should declare them unemployed and – after freezing their assets – send them $200 a week to live on.
After all, those assets might well be ill-gotten gains, right?
The Republiopaths want to fully protect businesses from their employees, through the epically named Safeguarding America’s Frontline Employees To Offer Work Opportunities Required to Kickstart the Economy Act.
The most obnoxious provision of the GOP proposal is one that shifts the liability in COVID cases from the employer to employee. This provision allows employers to sue employees or their representatives for bringing a claim for a COVID infection and offering to settle out of court. … These documents are often designed as an opening brief in a negotiation; because neither side in an injury case really wants to go to trial, they make sense. The GOP bill would make anyone offering to settle, either through a demand letter or otherwise, liable to be sued for damages if the case they’re making is “meritless.” That’s another term that’s undefined in the measure.
Unlike the limitation on damages elsewhere in the bill, by the way, the punitive damages that can be awarded to employers bringing these lawsuits aren’t capped.
So, if you work for me, fuck you

Thomas Gilmer, a Republican candidate in the Connecticut Republican primary for a Congressional seat, was arrested for domestic violence just before the vote. Nevertheless, he leads the ballot count. There are no provisions for a party to replace a candidate who wins a primary, so if he wins the vote count, he will be on the ballot in November. There is a mandatory recount because of the closeness of the vote, so we’ll have to wait to see the results.

They’re really scraping the bottom of the barrel to find people who’ll speak for them. I’m surprised they didn’t invite the chair back.
After it trounced Eastwood in the debate? I knew it wouldn’t be invited back.
