The Department of Justice has completely abandoned "justice" and is now 100% the personal law enforcement tool of the Trump Administration. POTUS decides who is innocent and who is guilty, and the DOJ follows daddy's orders.

I just like to imagine the shitstorm if Barack Obama had George Soros as his right-hand man as an unelected, un-confirmed leader in the executive branch of his administration.
Elon Musk’s unusual governing arrangement with President Trump and signature slash-and-burn style has reverberated far beyond the Capitol, making even lawmakers from deep-red states begin to sweat.

The only thing that will bring down housing costs in cities is to build a lot more housing of every type. One bedroom apartments, dense townhomes, multi unit townhomes, midrise condos with 3+ bedrooms, etc.
