I had to show my ticket, my driver’s license, had my purse inspected & was wanded by a security metal detector before entering. Once inside, I was given these two items. Approx 200-300 people in attendance. @Moms4Liberty had first 2 rows reserved. #DeSantis #Charleston 1/ Image
DeSantis was introduced by local #M4L chair, Tara Woods. Lots of talk about protecting children & praise for how Florida handled #covid, #CRT, school board takeovers, being at war w/ “woke mob” & how the battle has just begun. 2/
DeSantis spoke for about 45 minutes.

Things I heard him condemn:
Woke mob, CRT, Fauci, DEI, Biden, vaccine mandates, BLM protests, transgender sports, books, Bud light, ESG & Disney

Big takeaways from our survey of fix-and-flippers last week: 1) Rates have massively slowed transactions and prices are falling broadly. 2) Lots of talk about flippers changing strategies, holding-and-renting instead of flipping, or exiting the space entirely.

COMMENTARY 🧵->
#Atlanta flipper: “Many highly-leveraged flippers will need to go out of pocket to sell or will default on no-recourse loans. We will not see improvement until the 2nd half of 2024. Many will not make it to that point and there will be some bargains for cash-flush investors.”
#Baltimore flipper: “Sellers are still not reacting to market shifts. Sellers need to lower prices.”

*potentially disturbing*
“In home security footage from a home on South Street, you can hear multiple rounds of gunfire and people screaming, starting around the one minute mark.”
H/T to @Tr00peRR - who first shared the link to this story and brought it to my attention.

A great follow, if you’re not already following!

Homebuilder survey results are in for February. Top themes: 1) Record high new home price increases at +20% YOY nationally. 2) Record low builder finished inventory. 3) Demand still off the charts & quality of home buyer prospect lists still solid. Market commentary to follow…
#Charlotte builder: “Restricting sales in all communities. Several communities with VIP lists over 1,000 and one of those communities only has 51 homes. Increasing mortgage rates haven’t slowed buyers down at all.”
#Charlotte builder: “HELP WANTED signs have driven direct construction costs up +20%. Keeping your employees from jumping ship to work for another builder costs 25% more.”

Fresh October home builder survey results. Top themes: 1) Builders are finally lifting sales caps (though not all). 2) Lack of lots & land development delays will hold back growth in 2022. 3) Most builders expect prices to keep rising. Market commentary to follow…
#ColoradoSprings builder: “One cautious trend to watch is single-family rental businesses paying more for land than builders. This will suck up trade capacity & supply at a time we can't afford it.”
#Denver builder: “Traffic & sales definitely slowing down, but also following a more seasonal pattern as compared to 2020. Resale inventory is still historically low. Rents are skyrocketing again.”

#ToiletBreak e Querelle #Tsitsipas

Facciamo chiarezza con un bel thread

Si è parlato molto delle ‘presunte’ scorrettezze di Stefano Tsitsipas (e di altri tennisti) che utilizzerebbero in modo antisportivo il toilet break.

Partiamo dalle regole attuali

Il #ToiletBreak, in un match #Slam, è consentito due volte a partita.

È obbligatorio, una volta presa la via degli spogliatoi (con un giudice di linea al seguito), usufruire del bagno.

Non si può chiedere Toilet Break solamente per cambiarsi Foto Ray Giubilo
A #Sinner, che non conosceva la regola, durante il match con #Karatsev a #Lione è stato recentemente comminato un #Warning per essersi solamente cambiato senza aver usufruito del bagno.

Land is the most important yet least transparent part of homebuilding. To help, here’s commentary from land brokers across the country per our July survey. Top themes: 1) Builders going further out for deals. 2) Bigger land deals are back. 3) Development delays & lot shortages.
#SaltLakeCity land broker: “You can't get all the lots you need even when you overpay.”
#SanAntonio land broker: “Getting a vaccine approved took less time than getting land entitled.”

Here's a housing🧵to chew on over weekend. Mid-June update from 100+home builders across country. 1) rumblings of price ceiling. 2) slightly shrinking pool of qualified buyers. 3) some home releases not selling out immediately. 4) normal summer slowing as vacations take priority.
#Austin builder: “Some interest lists are shrinking & others are not. Seeing buyers who are no longer able or willing to afford the monthly payment. Definitely seeing attrition here. Frustration that prices continued going up without an opportunity to purchase.”
#Dallas builder: “Interest lists are definitely shrinking because of pricing. Some drop off is happening due to price. But the re-sale market is still so tight it hasn’t dropped substantially. Extremely concerned about pricing going forward.”

Here's May mid-month home builder channel check I hinted at earlier. Builders are pushing prices w/little pushback, though some starting. Some builders are using price escalators & highest/best offer. Many limiting pre-sales, shifting to spec, & pricing home later in build cycle.
#Dallas builder: “Not selling build jobs in May, starting specs only, and not selling until drywall. Costs are too out of control for us to take the inflation risk on build jobs. So sales are way down.”
#SanAntonio builder: “Only selling specs at Sheetrock stage. Last month, it was frame stage.”

Because of other recent events, only got to catch the first four episodes of this excellent podcast series. Time to listen to the remaining three. Now episode 5. Did not know Dylann Roof was listening to Christian’s former band. #Charleston #XRW 1/2
Interesting introduction too. On whether Preventing / Countering Violent Extremism (P / CVE) should be entrusted to former violent extremists? Not solely, but if genuine, they can be important and credible messengers. Also mentors, but let’s see what the conclusion is. #XRW 2/2
Wow. That was an excellent and honest episode. @oyousef not holding back asking difficult questions. My conclusion? I think ‘formers’ such as @cpicciolini are important actors in P/CVE. But what’s also needed is a holistic approach comprising many types of people, practitioners.

The debate stage here in Charleston, SC. ImageImage
One novelty compared to last week in Las Vegas: @TomSteyer has qualified and will on the far-right side of the stage.
Guest seats have been allotted. Influential South Carolina congressman Jim Clyburn will be here. Chairman @TomPerez will be sitting between Rev. Jesse Jackson and Rev. Al Sharpton. ImageImageImageImage

La miscela esplosiva dei terroristi bianchi come #Tarrant è fatta di 3 elementi:
- odio razzista
- simpatie naziste
- legale detenzione / facile accesso alle #armi

I profili di:
- #Breivik #Utoya
- #Roof #Charleston
- #Bissonette #Quebec
- #Cruz #Parkland

Il 22 luglio 2011, a #Utoya (Norvegia), A. B. #Breivik, con un fucile semiautomatico regolarmente detenuto (Ruger Mini-14) ha fatto fuoco per un’ora sul raduno dei giovani del Partito Laburista ammazzandone 69.
Era un onesto #legaledetentorediarmi.

Il 17 giugno 2015, Dylann Storm #Roof ha ammazzato con una Glock calibro 45
