So I've seen varying takes on this. What exactly is happening? Does the executive branch have the power to extend it? Is the Supreme Court blocking it? Does the CDC?

Can someone give me a breakdown pleaaaase?!

    So how big of a backlog of people are there who are about to get evicted and how soon does that happen? Are we looking at another Occupy?

      I keep hearing the figure being an estimated 6 million or so, but idk if it's people or households. It's basically going to be as soon as landlords feel like it, really.

      As to whether we're looking at another occupy: Haha no, this is hellworld. Nothing ever happens unless it's objectively awful.

        Yeah I hate to say it but a wave of homeless people isn't going to result in large scale organized protest, it's going to result in large scale organized police action.

        The Census Bureau said 7.4 million households were behind on rent at the end of July
