Ladies and gentlemen, meet Frank Capone. Trumper who really hates his HOA

[underpants]

Jesus this guys a piece of work. The sizzle reel is at the bottom.


The trouble began when the Potomac Yard Homeowners Association reminded Frank Capone in mid-January 2021 to take down his Christmas lights.

Those politics, along with strong personalities and an exacting HOA that bans everything from brass front doorknobs to window boxes, have driven nearly five years of war between Mr. Capone and his outraged board. The battle stands out for its excess. Mr. Capone has spent $40,000 suing the HOA over his right to plant a Mickey Mouse flag in his front flower pot and revoke the street parking privileges of 22 neighbors. Seeking to oust him from leadership, his association started a multimedia campaign, including a video of his Zoom meeting outbursts that drew eyeballs from several states.

Mr. Capone’s accusations rattled the board. It halted its annual compliance inspections and conducted a review of legal documents, overseen by a lawyer who works in HOA law. The association says its legal bills grew to $139,000 in 2023 from $21,000 in 2021, before Mr. Capone joined the board.

In October 2023, Ms. Dana started a petition on Change.org that sought to remove Mr. Capone “for disruptive behavior and misuse of power” and asserted that he had bombarded the board and related targets with 9,000 pages of emails containing “baseless accusations, insults, plots for personal vendetta, etc.”
