(Natural News) Worsening inflation (stemming from endless fiat currency money printing) is causing food, energy, and housing to become unaffordable for millions of Americans, putting them on a trajectory of homelessness and destitution.

Right now, homeless encampments are expanding in cities like Los Angeles, Atlanta, Philadelphia, and Oakland. The situation is bound to get far worse as inflation accelerates and people find themselves jobless due to plummeting economic activity while manufacturers downsize operations.

All across America right now, people are moving out of (unaffordable) apartments and rental homes, and moving into RVs or campers. Many of these people have jobs yet still can’t afford to save enough money for a down payment on a home. As economic conditions deteriorate, many of these people will move from RVs to cars or trucks… and then eventually to tents on the street. There, they are largely forgotten by the very same bureaucrats who promised them jobs and government assistance. Those are also the same bureaucrats who created the very problems that cause homelessness in the first place, such as worsening inflation by handing out stimulus money… or forcing small businesses to shut down over “covid” claims.

The controlled demolition of America is well underway.

While most homeless people are non-violent individuals who are merely trying to survive in a collapsing civilization, problems such as drug addiction, mental illness, public health violations, and violence continue to plague homeless encampments. These tent cities are almost always filthy, rodent-ridden, feces-festering shantytown fixtures that reek of trash and desperation. As they grow in size and numbers, they are going to pose a significant challenge to the operations of entire cities, especially given that these encampments have their own rules, leadership, and underground economies. They do not abide by mainstream society’s rules, and except in rare cases, local police and city council members pretend these homeless encampments don’t exist. They are, in effect, “no-go zones” for police and first responders, except on the rare occasions when city leaders decide to “clean out” all the tents and trash, thrusting the homeless individuals who lived there into even more desperate circumstances.

Many homeless turn to retail theft to survive

With the US economy collapsing, homelessness is going to become a way of life for millions more Americans. In order to survive, many of these individuals turn to retail theft, shoplifting all sorts of goods (including food) from local retail establishments.

The Epoch Times reports on, “The growing threat of organized retail crime,” citing so-called “ORC rings” (Organized Retail Crime = ORC) that are growing more numerous and powerful in cities across America:

The massive wave of retail thefts in the United States over the past two years has become a major challenge for both the retail industry and law enforcement.

The number of increasingly professional organized retail crime (ORC) rings and their frequent attacks have reached a crisis scale, according to the National Retail Federation (NRF) in a Sept. 14 report.

That article cites NRF vice president Mark Meadows, explaining, “These highly sophisticated criminal rings jeopardize employee and customer safety and disrupt store operations. Retailers are bolstering security efforts to counteract these increasingly dangerous and aggressive criminal activities.”

Epoch Times adds:

Items under CRAVED include apparel, health and beauty, electronics/appliances, accessories, food and beverage, footwear, home furnishings, housewares, home improvement, eyewear, office supplies, infant care, and toys.

“We are seeing more and more, particularly, organized retail crime,” said Corrie Barry, Best Buy’s CEO, in late 2021 to the NY Post.

“You can see that pressure in our financials. And more importantly, frankly, you can see that pressure with our associates. It’s traumatizing,” she said. 

The U.S. Chamber of Commerce demanded earlier this year that Congress take action to address the rise of ORC crimes, calling them a “national emergency.”

Los Angeles County Sheriff Alex Villanueva blamed radical Democrats and prosecutors, saying that they “live in this ‘woke palace’ where they’re not affected by the policies, but the average person IS impacted by them.”

In other words, America is beginning to see the rise of organized retail theft rings that are increasingly terrorizing brick-and-mortar stores, traumatizing their employees, and looting their merchandise.

It doesn’t take a genius to realize most of these retail stores are going to cease operations in these areas, leaving locals with a barren landscape of abandoned retail buildings.

Democrats in Illinois have legalized squatting and trespassing… police will no longer remove anyone from your private property

The bureaucratic geniuses in Illinois — who favor criminals and punish the law-abiding — recently passed and signed into law the “SAFE-T Act” which would eliminate bail for second-degree murder, arson, kidnapping, violent assaults, and many other series crimes. In essence, the act allows police to arrest a murderer, hand him a ticket to appear in court next year, then release him right back onto the streets to murder again.

State Senator Donald DeWitte is desperately trying to repeal this dangerous, lawless act that was pushed by Democrats. From Senator DeWitte’s website:

“I can’t walk down the street without being stopped by someone who asks how the SAFE-T Act can be stopped,” said Sen. DeWitte. “Constituents are particularly worried about criminal offenses that will, as of January 1, be considered ‘non-detainable.’ People have legitimate concerns, and we need to pump the breaks on implementation so the long list of unintended consequences tied to the Act can be addressed.”

DeWitte continued, “According to state’s attorneys across the state, the Act will make it extremely difficult for them to hold violent criminals pre-trial, including crimes as serious as murder if the accused person no longer poses a significant threat to a specifically identifiable person. General risk is no longer good enough, and that heightened standard will cause some very dangerous individuals to be released within hours of their arrest.”

Those same state’s attorneys have said offenses like second-degree murder, arson, aggravated battery, kidnapping, burglary, robbery, intimidation, aggravated DUI, aggravating fleeing & eluding drug offenses, threatening a public official, and drug-induced homicide could no longer meet the standard for pre-trial detention.

What many people don’t yet realize is that trespassing is no longer a crime that law enforcement can prevent. They can’t arrest and remove squatters, for example, who decide to move into your shed, garage, RV, or home.

As ABC7 Chicago reports:

Grundy County Sheriff Ken Briley is raising concerns because the law will ban arrest for people accused of certain misdemeanors. He cited trespassing as an example.

“Today, I can arrest him if you sign a complaint for trespassing,” Briley said. “January 1st, I’m not going to be able to do that. The law says I have to write him a ticket and leave.”

In other words, the homeless masses will soon be able to move into any home they choose, and police will not remove them, even if they are trespassing.

This means private property owners in Illinois have no legal means by which to remove individuals — including drug addicts, prostitutes and violent criminals — who invade their property. If you leave your home for a weekend and a homeless person breaks in and takes over your home, you have no legal means to remove them.

This means you are on your own, and you have to decide how to handle potentially large groups of people who are now living in your garage or home. If the police do nothing, do you have the right to be your own police? What level of force can a private citizen exert in order to convince a trespasser to leave?

In Democrat-run cities and counties, it’s obvious that private property owners who threaten trespassers using guns or knives will, themselves, be arrested and prosecuted by radical left-wing District Attorneys. In other words, if you find squatters in your home, crapping on the carpet and spraying graffiti on the walls, and you call the police to remove them, the police will tell you there’s nothing they can do. If you pull a gun and try to force the squatters to leave, the police will arrest you, and while you’re in jail, those squatters will rip your home to shreds and probably set it on fire.

This is Illinois under Democrat control, and it’s a feature of civilization collapse that’s coming to every “blue” city and county across America, where criminals are protected and the law-abiding are punished. A similar situation already exists in Oregon, for example, where some property owners are quite literally listing homes for sale that already have squatters who refuse to leave. These property listings, as you might imagine, are heavily discounted, and buyers are not allowed to tour the homes or see inside them before making offers. That’s because somebody probably already crapped on the carpet and set the wallpaper on fire.

If you currently own property in the state of Illinois, your property value is about to get crushed

A sensible question arises from all this: What is the value of private property in a state where the security of such property cannot be enforced? The answer is zero.

No home is worth anything if a flash mob of homeless looters can rampage through your home at any time, with the full approval of the state’s left-leaning lawmakers, while police are unwilling to do anything to stop it (because they are bound by the new law).

If you own real estate in Illinois, sell it before January 1.

If you don’t sell your property and leave Illinois, you are bonkers.

If you live in the state of Illinois, leave before January 1 or get to a rural, conservative community where you have a chance of finding law enforcement, judges, and juries that still recognize common sense and the right to defend your own home against looters and squatters.

Because remember: As homelessness explodes across America, millions of destitute, desperate people will take over private homes and buildings, rendering the very idea of private property null and void. Now it’s the mob’s property, and mob rule is exactly what Democrats are striving for, which is why they deliberately wrote and passed this law to nullify private property and unleash violent criminals onto the streets of Illinois.

Chaos is coming to the blue cities… all by design.

You will witness a wave of American refugees fleeing the collapsing blue cities

Illinois, California, Oregon, Washington, New York, New Jersey, and other democrat-dominates states are about to be plunged into a hellish, Mad Max-like scenario, where police are powerless, criminal gangs run rampant across society, and law-abiding citizens either flee or get raped and murdered. It looks like Democrats are finally getting the society they voted for, and as this accelerates, we are going to see a wave of refugees fleeing the cities and seeking sanity in red states / rural America, where secure borders will be quickly erected to halt the influx of democrats who ruined their own home states and now want to cause the same destruction everywhere else.

Those who stay behind will find themselves fighting zombies and orcs, like something out of a mishmash of Lord of the Rings meets The Walking Dead. The good news is that with collapsing consumer demand, ammunition is about to become a lot more affordable. (It’s true. Firearms and ammo sales are plummeting right now, and you should expect to see ammunition on sale soon.) Once you understand the wave of violence, lawlessness and insanity that’s rapidly approaching, you’ll quickly realize you can never have too much ammo.

Get yourself some ballistic armor while you’re at it: www.HopliteArmor.com gives you 10% off using discount code “ranger.” It’s all made in the USA using advanced polymers and materials. (Hopelite Armor is a Brighteon sponsor.)

If you need swords and knives, my top choice is DawsonKnives.com, which also offers a 10% discount for those using the code “ranger” (good through Sep 30). Given that this whole scenario may go full Book of Eli (a reference to the Denzel Washington movie), acquiring fully functional fighting swords and knives no longer seems like an outlandish idea. Swords, after all, don’t need ammo.

Martha’s Vineyard Claims It Doesn’t Have Room for Immigrants, but Airbnb and Hotels.com Show Otherwise~Wealthy elites create GoFundMe campaign to pay for illegal immigrants

No room at the inn? Residents of Martha’s Vineyard, a haven for wealthy Democrats, liberals, and Blue Anons, had their chance to put their money where their virtue-signaling lawn signs are and embrace 50 illegal immigrants, hilariously flown in by Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis. Instead, they relied on the military to have them “deported” to a Massachusetts National Guard Base on Cape Cod, another vacation destination for the well-to-do, though not as luxurious as Martha’s Vineyard, where Barack Obama owns a massive $12 million mansion.

FACT-O-RAMA! Folks from nearby states refer to obnoxious people from Massachusetts as “Massholes.”

Martha’s Vineyard took roughly 44 hours to exile the immigrants to the mainland. Residents claimed they didn’t have room for the 50 travelers. Let’s check Hotels.com and Airbnb for the reality.

Airbnb tells us that there are currently 66 homes open as of the publication of this article. Each immigrant could relax in style after his or her long journey from the socialist toilet that is Venezuela, in his or her own stunning house, some with “a modern touch & traditional feel overlooking Vineyard Haven Harbor” or an “easy walk to the fun in Oak Bluffs.”

Screenshot from Airbnb

SOCIALISM-O-RAMA! Most of the 50 immigrants flown to Martha’s Vineyard are from Venezuela, a nation rocked by socialist ideals, many of which the Vineyard denizens preach themselves. I guess the 50 living examples of socialist irony wandering on their island weren’t enough of a wake-up call.  

I checked Hotels.com, and there are seven places with multiple rooms available should the 50 immigrants invite their families and friends for a reunion on the playground of the rich, liberal, and resoundingly hypocritical.

Screenshot from hotels.com

It seems there are plenty of rooms available after all. Then why would the wealthy Democrats not want the illegal immigrants to find respite on Martha’s Vineyard?

Elizabeth Osborn Bostrom, a resident of Martha’s Vineyard, said what all the elite Vineyard bolshies are thinking. She told the New York Post that she “stayed out of town most of the day to avoid the commotion.” and that “people here leave their doors open. It’s safe and there’s no real crime, usually. I’m not upset they came here, but I’m a little wary. I have my doors locked.”

In other words, She doesn’t want to see them, and she doesn’t trust them. Sounds a little racist to me.

Martha’s Vineyard officials sent the “unwanted, potential criminals” away to cheaper real estate where the wealthy won’t have to look at them, but then again, the island has always catered to wealthy, powerful Democrats.

FACT-O-RAMA! Martha’s Vineyard is where you’ll find Chappaquiddick, where the “lion of the Senate” Ted Kennedy, a legendary philanderer and dipsomaniac, left a party where he “wasn’t drinking” with a woman who was “not” his girlfriend and crashed his car into a pond. He didn’t report it to the police for 10 hours. He was “somehow” never indicted.

Some have called on former president Barack Obama to use his sprawling Martha’s Vineyard estate for tents to house the Venezuelans, but the island had already swept the unwanted immigrants elsewhere, so the Bamster got to dodge that bullet.

NOT IN MY BACKYARD-O-RAMA! Barack Obama was cool with bringing in hundreds of members of the vicious MS-13 gang to the U.S. under the Deferred Action for the Arrival of Children (DACA) program, even though the gang would be linked to almost 500 crimes in 22 states by February 2018. But local officials saw to it that the Obamas would never have to gaze upon the dirty faces of those pesky illegal immigrants while vacationing in the Vineyard.

Martha’s Vineyard should consider itself lucky. Texas recently had to deal with 46 dead immigrants in a truck. They were basically cooked to death in the Texas summer heat. Some miscreants poured steak seasoning on the hot bodies to hide the stench.

Let’s wrap up with this funny video from my friends at “Jokes and a Point.” They know what’s up, and they like to hammer the commies. Remember, conservatives are WAY funnier than libs.

Wealthy elites create GoFundMe campaign to pay for illegal immigrants

Wealthy elites create GoFundMe campaign to pay for illegal immigrants

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis created an uproar last week after he deposited 50 illegal immigrants in Martha’s Vineyard, an idyllic island off the coast of Massachusetts famous for serving as an oasis to the country’s powerful and ultra-wealthy. 

Martha’s Vineyard residents typically lean politically Left and have lectured on the importance of diversity and welcoming illegal immigrants. Many support Biden’s open border policy, which has devolved into a historic crisis. These residents include former President Barack Obama, whose open-door border policy caused a spike in murder rates. The Obamas threw a large birthday bash in their nearly $12 million compound in Martha’s Vineyard last year as the pandemic raged. 

Other homeowners in Martha’s Vineyard include Hillary Clinton, whose proposed immigration plan was slated to top Obama’s in lawlessness, Biden climate commissar John Kerry, whose home and 18.5 acres have a similar price tag, Seinfeld and Curb Your Enthusiasm creator Larry David, Bill Gates, Oprah Winfrey, and many other celebrities. 

These elites, enraged at having their serenity disturbed last week with the arrival of their new guests, declared a “humanitarian crisis,” called in the National Guard, and had the immigrants removed in less than 48 hours. Hillary Clinton said the move by DeSantis was “literally human trafficking.” Documentary-maker Ken Burns and CNN compared it to the Holocaust

On Thursday, the Martha’s Vineyard community started a GoFundMe fundraiser to pay for the “emergency”. The fundraiser was organized by Sarah Goulet, whose family has a home on the ritzy island. 

“Many of you have seen the shocking news that Florida Governor Ron DeSantis arranged yesterday to send two planeloads of migrants, mostly from Venezuela, to the island of Martha’s Vineyard,” the campaign description read. “Lured by the promise of jobs, many of the 50 people—including children—did not know where they were going. No one on the island was given a warning of their arrival. 

 “Officials and volunteers on the island have sprung into action to provide emergency services, shelter, food, and clothing. Martha's Vineyard is a community of open-hearted individuals that view these migrants as people, not political pawns. 

“However, the island is a resort community with only 20,000 year-round residents, and it already faces a shortage of affordable housing and off-season jobs. 

“Please join me in donating to the Martha's Vineyard Community Foundation, which can quickly distribute funds to the neediest organizations. This action by DeSantis is a cruel ruse that manipulates families seeking a better life—but we can help to provide support. 

“Martha's Vineyard is a very special place to me and my family. My parents have a home there, and Dan, Ruby, and I spent her [sic] first year on the island. Thank you in advance for your contribution to this cause. 

The campaign has raised $43,196 and has stopped taking donations. It has also hidden the description and list of donors. 

“You can’t make this stuff up,” Townhall reporter Mia Cathell mocked. “‘URGENT PLEA’! The ultra-wealthy on Martha’s Vineyard has launched a GoFundMe fundraiser, already raising over $36,000. Please help these struggling millionaires with multiple summer homes during this ‘humanitarian crisis.’” 

Confirmed: Venezuela Sending Violent Prisoners Across Our Southern Border

Good news for the thugs pushing our nation’s record crime streak. They can take a much-needed break because Biden is bringing in fresh reinforcements.

Rep. Troy Nehls (R-Texas) tweeted that the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has confirmed that Venezuela is dumping its prisoners, some of them violent, onto our southern border, where they saunter into the U.S.

“DHS confirms that Venezuela empties prisons and sends violent criminals to our southern border,” Nehls tweeted. “President Trump warned us about this years ago.”

FACT-O-RAMA! IN 1980, Democrat President Jimmy Carter allowed Cubans to enter the U.S. Cuba’s dictator Fidel Castro emptied his prisons and mental hospitals and sent them to Florida. Naturally, a nation-wide crime wave ensued. Of the 3,000 Cubans relocated to California alone, 2,000 had been arrested in the first five years of their arrival. Other states reported similar devastating situations. Democrats never learn from their mistakes.

The nation is now crawling with Venezuelan thugs, and more are on the way. Good thing the Democrats defunded police departments across the country.

Breitbart points out that the DHS report is calling for Border Patrol agents to be on the lookout for Venezuelan prisoners, though that is nearly impossible as we have no effective diplomatic relationship with Venezuela and can’t access prison records. So unless someone crossing the border admits he or she is a criminal, he or she can’t be stopped.

The former prisoners are said to be traveling in caravans from Tapachula, Mexico to our southern border. The report cannot confirm whether or not the criminals, many of whom are murderers and rapists, are traveling together or spanning out and hiding in numerous caravans, but it was common knowledge within certain groups of immigrants that there were criminals among them.

“Unless we apprehend someone who voluntarily tells us they have committed a violent crime in Venezuela, we can only guess and that doesn’t work well,” an unnamed source told Breitbart. “They will more than likely be released.”

 FACT-O-RAMA! The number of Venezuelans crossing illegally into the U.S. rose roughly 3,000% from the fiscal year 2020 to 2021.

Overwhelmed border states have hilariously begun shipping the migrants to northern “sanctuary” cities and states, where local Democrat leaders have been anything but welcoming about the “invasion.” Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot is shipping immigrants to nearby conservative suburbs. Washington, D.C., Mayor Muriel Bowser declared a “public emergency” and called in the National Guard, though she refused to do so when animals from Antifa and BLM were sacking her city. New York City Mayor Eric Adams is housing illegal immigrants in swanky hotels. How’s that liberal open border policy working now?

IMMIGRANTS-O-RAMA! More illegal immigrants have been arrested during Biden’s 20-month presidency than in Obama’s entire eight years in the White House.

Buses delivered several loads of immigrants to the home of Vice President Kamala “border czar” Harris, where one of them happily told a Fox News Reporter that he entered “illegally” and that it was “easy.”
