A #fundamental change like #ending #homelessness. That kind of fundamental change. I have proven over and over again that it is good #financially for everyone in the room except for the handful of people that profit off the back of the #dying 126 every day outside #homeless in America by policy.

He predicts another major org will fold soon and that after The International 2026 we'll see mass team freezes; even bookmakers are stepping back. 😬
