Homelessness raging out of control in California

- Trump may intervene
- Death, rapes, assaults rising
- Calif. has 90k on streets but NYC shelters 95% of homeless

What's going on?

Here's why California keeps making homelessness worse

forbes.com/sites/michaels…
LA's $1.2B investment in housing “was supposed to build 10,000 units but in truth will create half that because each one costs $527,000 to $700,000,” said Bales.

“They will take ten years to build, at which point 44,000 lives will have been destroyed by living on the street.”
Last Thursday, the day I published the above piece, the 28th homeless person was killed this year in Los Angeles.

He was discovered in a shopping cart, burned to death

I will be on @TuckerCarlson @FoxNews tonight at 8:30 pm eastern to discuss the homelessness emergency in California. Please tune in!
On Monday in Santa Rosa, Calif., a Dad fighting addiction in order to care for his baby boy overdosed on fentanyl

Then the baby overdosed

Mom found them dead

Please GOV. @GavinNewsom @realDonaldTrump — GET FENTANYL OFF THE STREETS NOW

Deaths on the street & homelessness increasing in Britain, too. Not as bad as California, but identical factors: drug epidemic, housing scarcity & untreated mental illness. Bravo to @guardian for covering this:

“As much as Republicans must listen to the science, our party has the same obligation to listen to scientists [on need for nuclear energy]. The data speaks for itself.”

Right about now would be a great time for 2024 Dem. Presidential candidate & current Calif. Gov. @GavinNewsom to get behind legislation to count nuclear as renewable and SAVE DIABLO CANYON

“It’s time for Bernie Sanders to retire,” said climate scientist James Hansen. “India & China have no prayer of phasing out coal without nuclear. Thousands of people PER DAY are dying from pollution. Not only is he killing people in India, he is screwing my grandchildren.”

Calif. Gov. @GavinNewsom

- blaming others for homelessness crisis he helped create

- proposes housing vouchers he knows won't work

- claimed Texas created SF homeless problem

- more focused on being elected president in 2024 than saving Calif. in 2019

environmentalprogress.org/big-news/2019/…
@GavinNewsom Unwilling to take responsibility for the homelessness crisis he helped create, California’s Governor Gavin Newsom is now attempting to shift the blame to the federal government.
“We can all agree that homelessness is a national crisis,” begins the open letter that Newsom sent to President Trump late in the day on Monday, September 16.

National crisis? Really?

Why aren't Americans taking about the foreign influence in the US government that continues to send our men and woman to fight immoral wars?

#Trump when he campaigned for president, before he decided to let Adelson fund his campain!

Adelson was one of the biggest donors to Trumps presidential campain. Adelsons company saved 670 million dollars from the massive republican tax break. Adelson did not support the Iran deal & wanted the US embassy moved to Jerusalem.

Adelson has a direct line to #potus!

Adelson has private in-person meetings & phone conversations about once a month with #Trump!

Adelson used his access to move the embassy in Israel to Jerusalem and cut aid to Palestinians.

Death to America Squad and The New Face of Politics in America newswithviews.com/death-to-ameri…
Both political parties and upper echelons of federal civil service are damaged beyond repair their decisions influenced by wild ideologies and outside forces and not forgotten Americans – Washington’s perceived serfdom.
Human frailty and fallibility too often succumb to cultural pressure tilting dangerously away from what’s good and necessary. Unless there’s a deep cleansing of all branches of our government including senior career civil servants, the problem will not resolve.

Thread: On Rules of Engagement Plus More, Part II

1. Bad rules of engagement in Afghanistan and Iraq got people killed, needlessly. Part I of this series provided an overview of what ROEs are in general, with some expert commentary on bad ROEs, etc.
2. Part II continues commentary from a couple of folks who wish to remain anonymous (special ops, covert CIA contractor, Marine) on Iraq ROEs and the politicization of both the Afghanistan and Iraq campaigns. I then wrap up the series with a short summary and conclusions.
3. <begin quotes> Same-o for Iraq, but by then the FBI had honed their skills at causing grief. I hate to say it, but I once let three guys get away that had lit me up with a PKM at night, landing me (alone) on the side of the road.

#Trump has ALWAYS employed the tactics of #SunTzu in business, so of course he would similarly apply them to this, the biggest of stages, with literally EVERYTHING on the line.

#GreatAwakening #QAnon #PatriotsUnited #MerryChristmas
The ability to create/dictate confusion (a fog of war if you will) gives you a decided advantage while your opponents are left guessing/reacting. This keeps them off-balance and mistake prone.

#TheGreatAwakening #MAGA #AmericaFirst
The fact is that when everything seems out of control and chaos abounds...#Trump is in his element...which is the point. So, when the moment is ripe, we can expect the hammer of justice to fall hard/overwhelmingly on the #DeepState like the hand of God.

Trump Hotels' website still lists Trump SoHo New York among its properties in the Our Hotels menu. Select its name though to access its page and there's a message about it being renamed

Two errors in the 2nd graf of Breitbart's Trump Hotel DC article:
-holdings aren't out of @realDonaldTrump's hands: trust isn't blind & he can profit from it
-Trump Org told Congress it was estimating foreign receipts—not auto donating in full
