I had never heard about them before. TLDR, the highlights are:

  • Hedge funds
  • Sending data of motel guests to ICE
  • Child labour
  • Deflorestation of the Amazon

Nice company /s

Also, THE main entity making housing unaffordable through profiteering. That's the division the very deserving murder victim was head of.

Huh, it's almost like......if you make 10+ livings worth of money off of enforced human misery eventually someone will come for their pound of flesh.

firm calls it worst day in its history

Which is EXACTLY why it's a great day in the rest of the world's history.

She was head of the Blackstone real estate division, which is probably the worst housing profiteering entity in the world, responsible for thousands if not millions becoming homeless or at the very least live their lives burdened with crushing, inescapable death.

Rust in piss, Wesley.

Oops, assumed based on the name and the everything else that it was likely an 55+yo white man like it almost always is. Fixed.

I was frustrated that the article only mentioned that the firm wasn't the target but didn't mention who was so I looked it up. NFL is not what I expected at all. I'm all for Luigi-ing billionaires, but this one is just a sad story for everyone involved.

This link is so misleading with the title shorted like that. I was what Blackstone disappeared ! Heh no. Only an exec.
