In this Rick Smith Show episode, Rick discusses a new Rutgers Policy Lab study exposing how corporate ownership of residential rental properties is surging in cities like Trenton, transforming neighborhoods into digital company towns and squeezing renters. Bucknell economics professor Matias Vernengo joins to analyze the return of these “company town” dynamics, revealing how corporate consolidation shifts control and undermines housing affordability for working families. Later, Raw Story reporter Sarah Burris covers Trump’s $200 or $250 or $300 million White House ballroom fiasco, the administration’s bombing of fishing boats branded as “narco-terrorism,” and Trump’s latest tax shakedown efforts targeting everyday Americans.​
