Just heard some updated stats: there are ~28M people likely to be evicted, and 15M foreclosures if action is not taken now.
That's somewhere around 75M Americans who could be homeless in a couple of months...
And probably ~ 40-45M voters whose registrations could be culled. https://twitter.com/soychicka/status/1283577083306946560

And if you combine public records with the data set this comes from, and mash that up with social media data - either direct from content, or contextual use data (are they posting during the day when they used to be at work?) - it gets pretty easy to predict likely targets.
That data, btw, comes from the RNC Data Trust, one of the GOP entities that was breached by Russian agents in 2015... https://twitter.com/i/moments/887752557761900544
so even if the GOP isn't directly manipulating voter rolls, the Russians have access to pretty much the same data set - it'd be a cinch for them to crunch the data and hand the results off to friendly GOP actors to pass on to friendly voter roll managers...

Or to repeat the 2016 voter roll breaches, but, with large-scale manipulation of the rolls this time - and modifying or dropping individual records, making it virtually impossible for the newly homeless to receive notifications & confirm registrations...
and millions bumped off the voter rolls in strategic locations, particularly like states where the GOP would otherwise be at risk - including
Florida.
Texas.
& Arizona...
And _that_ difference could put the GOP within reach of grabbing the Electoral College by the pVssy...

or, like, retaining key Senate seats - particularly in those states where recent incidents of deadly police violence against unarmed black people have led to large-scale demonstrations (MN, KY, GA) - which, thanks to 
seem to have been not that successful for spreading COVID.

So, yeah.
The upcoming potential for disruption from mass evictions and foreclosures is kind of a huge deal.
And many pauses on evictions are scheduled to end in 2 weeks.

Please, don't let this issue slip to the side.
Aside from the negative impact on millions of lives, should what I pose here *actually* be anyone's plan, either foreign or domestic, making the risk known is essential...

The government must act to forestall allowing 25% of the US population to become homeless...
and any elected official who refuses to act must be forced to address this threat to our elections verbally,

Journalists & constituents MUST get them on the record about this issue so that constituents will be able to hold them liable - civilly AND criminally, for fraud and corruption, so that they may be removed from office, if it so comes to pass.
Please.
The elements are all in place. The risk is real.
Demand action, and demand every elected official goes on the record about their position on this real national security risk.

And, sorry, the details on the numbers:
28 Million evictions... https://www.cnbc.com/2020/07/10/looming-evictions-may-soon-make-28-million-homeless-expert-says.html

15M Mortgage defaults/foreclosures - estimating 2 adults per household, that's ~30M voters at risk of disenfranchisement... and millions more children and other family members.
And big profit for many Friends of Trump. https://www.latimes.com/business/story/2020-04-02/home-mortgage-default

And I just saw that Arizona just extended their eviction pause through the end of October.
3 days is likely not enough time for millions of people to be evicted, so that's a good thing... for Arizona. https://twitter.com/emilyabenfer/status/1283897126120980482?s=20
