First, the plug, then the balance of the headline news reports. The “Big Twelve” is simply the completion of 11 years of publishing MHProNews, and the start of year 12 serving the manufactured home industry professionals, investors, advocates, researchers, and other regular readers.
MHProNews launched years before MHLivingNews, both of which attracts millions of visits every year. There are larger websites, but the evidence reveals that there is none that even come close to MHProNews or MHLivingNews traffic.
This year, MHProNews has had reports this year that surprisingly broke ½ million to 1+ million hits in an industry of only 75,000 full time people, pre-pandemic.
On our MHLivingNews sister site, reports like the one below break 100,000 hits month after month, weeks after they are published.

Where Business, Politics and Investing Can Meet
From Left-of-center CNN today, their version of an October Surprise.
“New York (CNN Business) Accurate information can be incredibly valuable to investors, especially in the midst of a confusing health crisis threatening the American economy. Unfortunately, access to that kind of intel is unequal.
More proof of that came from a report by The New York Times describing how senior members of President Donald Trump’s economic team were privately revealing concerns in late February about the looming pandemic — warnings that stood in stark contrast to the administration’s public comments.
At the time, Trump was assuring Americans on Twitter that the coronavirus was “very much under control” and claiming the stock market was “starting to look very good to me!”
Word of private uncertainties held by US officials quickly spread to elite investors via a hedge fund consultant, the Times reported. That intel gave these traders a crucial leg up on common investors, allowing them to make timely bets that stocks would drop.
“Short everything” was the reaction of one major investor briefed on the memo from the hedge fund consultant, the Times said.”
Senator Elizabeth Warren (MA-D) is using reports like this to call attention to a possible Trump Administration scandal. Let it be properly investigated. But it should be done in full context.
That said, as several of our reports have documented, this ‘new’ New York Times/CNN/Senator Warren raised concerns are hardly new. Members of the Senate and House reportedly did the same, as presumably insiders did among the national oligarchic class that had information flowing from WHO and China.
Put differently, if there is something wrong there, it spans both major parties and spills over into Congress and big business. That doesn’t make it right, it simply puts it into perspective. MHProNews reported on those issues at that time, from both sides of the two-party aisle.
Sky News in Australian called it an “Unprecedented scandal” – Joe Biden reportedly linked to son’s dealings with China.
There is bound to be questions and/or comments on this in the Trump Town Hall on NBC News tonight at 8 PM CT. There may be on the ABC News townhall with Joe Biden, if they are doing their jobs. Tune in.
Where is the strong denial of the authenticity of these emails that the New York Post is slow rolling? Per reports, there is more – and supposedly worse for the Biden campaign – to come.
Most Trump supporters don’t claim that their candidate is perfect. They only say that he is worlds better than the alternative.
