Slumlord Millionaire Sean Hannity Evicts Poor People Like a Common Kushner (Wonkette, more at the link):

Sean Hannity is a goddamn humanitarian for investing some of his Fox News millions in low-income housing (purchased with loans supported by Uncle Sam). After his real estate holdings became known, Hannity described his purchase of rental properties foreclosed on during the financial crisis as an act that just might earn him sainthood:

It is ironic that I am being attacked for investing my personal money in communities that badly need such investment and in which, I am sure, those attacking me have not invested their money. The fact is, these are investments that I do not individually select, control, or know the details about; except that obviously I believe in putting my money to work in communities that otherwise struggle to receive such support.

Well wouldn’t you know it, Hannity turns out to be a real bastard of an absentee landlord, according to an investigative report by the Washington Post. Or at least the management company that handles the day-to-day operations of Hannity’s Georgia apartment complexes is a right bastard of a corporate person: The managers of the four largest of Hannity’s apartment complexes file eviction notices against residents at double the average rate for Georgia rental properties, and they appear to use the frequent eviction notices as a tactic to make sure they collect every last late fee and cleaning charge possible. All of which is of course perfectly legal, since Georgia’s laws are heavily tilted in favor of landlords and against tenants, who really should be ashamed of not owning their homes anyway.
