(End of the American Dream)—This didn’t happen by accident. The horrifying crime wave that we are experiencing right now is the result of the deliberate policies of our leaders. Over the past four years, millions of people have been allowed to come pouring into this country through our wide open borders.
Unfortunately, even gang members and individuals that had previously been convicted of committing very serious crimes were allowed to come in without being properly screened. Now crime is completely and utterly out of control in many areas of the country, and it certainly isn’t going to be easy to clean this mess up.
New York City is more than two thousand miles from the southern border, but like so many of our other major cities it is now being forced to deal with a dramatic rise in crime. According to the New York Post, terrified residents of the Upper West Side are literally “begging for more cops” because crime has gotten so bad…
The Upper West Side has devolved into a Wild West atmosphere where anything goes, terrified crime victims and neighbors begging for more cops told The Post.
Criminals are more emboldened than ever in the ritzy nabe — with robberies soaring over 30% compared to last year — and carjackers so brazen they flashed their guns without concern on consecutive Sundays in broad daylight.
“I have never felt so scared in this neighborhood the way I feel now,” one of the carjacking victims told The Post this week.
In one of the wealthiest areas of the Big Apple, an “atmosphere where anything goes” now prevails.
How in the world did this happen?
Sadly, the answer is obvious. It is being reported that there are “almost 60,000 criminal migrants in New York City” at this point…
There are now almost 60,000 criminal migrants in New York City, according to new figures from US Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
The figures, reviewed by The New York Post, show that there are 58.000 illegal migrants who are criminals or are facing criminal charges.
As The Post states, “Of the 759,218 illegal-border crossers living in the Big Apple the feds were aware of as of Nov. 17, a jaw-dropping 58,626—7.7%—were either previously convicted of crimes or had criminal charges pending.”
If our borders were secure, things would be far different.
But now criminals openly sell goods that they have stolen on the sidewalks in some of the ritziest parts of New York City.
Of course it certainly doesn’t help that police officers in New York have their hands tied and that those in authority are not very interested in prosecuting non-violent crimes. In fact, one veteran NYPD detective recently admitted that criminals are “emboldened by the lack of prosecution for anything in New York City”…
The carjackers and other shameless criminals are “emboldened by the lack of prosecution for anything in New York City,” a veteran NYPD detective said.
“They’re also doing it in broad daylight so they’re not even caring who’s around. [Manhattan District Attorney Alvin] Bragg is going to have to step up and do something,” the detective added.
Sadly, even when migrants commit violent crimes they are often put right back into the streets.
Needless to say, this can often have tragic consequences…
An ******* immigrant with an extensive criminal background was arrested for attempting to kidnap and rape a stranger he captured on a popular Virginia trail days after being released from jail, according to police.
During a press conference Monday evening, the Herndon Police Department announced that Denis Humberto Naverrette Romero, 31, was charged with abduction with intent to defile and rape a stranger he grabbed off a trail.
“Let me start by saying that I am incredibly saddened and outraged that a crime like this could happen here in the town of Herndon,” said Herndon Police Chief Maggie DeBoard.
How many times have we seen women get sexually assaulted by violent criminals that get put back into the streets instead of being deported?
We keep doing the same thing over and over again, and we keep getting the same results.
When will the madness finally end?
As I have discussed previously, unrestrained migration has fueled the tremendous growth of transnational gangs that we have been witnessing.
In addition to selling drugs and trafficking women, these gangs have also been systematically invading homes all over the country.
Now that the homes of NFL players such as Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce are being hit, this crisis is starting to receive the kind of attention that it deserves…
The NFL issued a security alert to team security directors and the players’ union Wednesday about organized and skilled criminals that are increasingly targeting the homes of professional athletes, including the recent burglaries of Kansas City Chiefs stars Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce, according to the memo obtained by NFL.com.
Sources say the FBI is investigating the crime wave as international organized crime. The league, the NFL Players Association and team security forces also have been monitoring the crime spree, which is believed to be tied to a South American crime syndicate. At least one other current NFL player’s home was burglarized in the past week.
“It’s legit,” said one source familiar with the situation. “It’s a transnational crime ring, and over the last three weeks, they’ve focused on NBA and NFL players, and it’s all over the country.”
From this point forward, all of our sports stars are going to need armed security at their homes at all times.
Don’t wait for a stock market crash, dedollarization, or CBDCs before securing your retirement with physical precious metals. Genesis Gold Group can help.
Yes, things really have gotten that bad.
These gangs are highly organized, and they “conduct extensive surveillance” in order to determine when the homes of targeted players will be empty…
Multiple people with knowledge of the crimes said the perpetrators are nonconfrontational and do not burglarize homes while residents are inside. Instead, they use public records to find players’ addresses and conduct extensive surveillance. Then, by tracking team schedules and the social media accounts of players and their families, they wait until homes are empty — often during games — and gain access and quickly steal items such as cash, jewelry, watches and handbags, focusing mainly on master bedrooms and closets.
What about you?
Do you live in an area where criminal gangs are starting to take control?
If so, what will you do when things get really bad and desperate criminals decide to invade your home?
According to the U.S. Census Bureau, 46.2 million people that were not born in the United States are now living here.
That figure is from 2022, and so it does not reflect the massive surge in migration that we have witnessed over the past couple of years.
They wanted to “fundamentally transform” our country, and they have succeeded.
Now we are facing a crime spree of epic proportions, and it is certainly not going to be fun.

Five Things New “Preppers” Forget When Getting Ready for Bad Times Ahead
The preparedness community is growing faster than it has in decades. Even during peak times such as Y2K, the economic downturn of 2008, and Covid, the vast majority of Americans made sure they had plenty of toilet paper but didn’t really stockpile anything else.
Things have changed. There’s a growing anxiety in this presidential election year that has prompted more Americans to get prepared for crazy events in the future. Some of it is being driven by fearmongers, but there are valid concerns with the economy, food supply, pharmaceuticals, the energy grid, and mass rioting that have pushed average Americans into “prepper” mode.
There are degrees of preparedness. One does not have to be a full-blown “doomsday prepper” living off-grid in a secure Montana bunker in order to be ahead of the curve. In many ways, preparedness isn’t about being able to perfectly handle every conceivable situation. It’s about being less dependent on government for as long as possible. Those who have proper “preps” will not be waiting for FEMA to distribute emergency supplies to the desperate masses.
Below are five things people new to preparedness (and sometimes even those with experience) often forget as they get ready. All five are common sense notions that do not rely on doomsday in order to be useful. It may be nice to own a tank during the apocalypse but there’s not much you can do with it until things get really crazy. The recommendations below can have places in the lives of average Americans whether doomsday comes or not.

Secured Wealth
Whether in the bank or held in a retirement account, most Americans feel that their life’s savings is relatively secure. At least they did until the last couple of years when de-banking, geopolitical turmoil, and the threat of Central Bank Digital Currencies reared their ugly heads.
It behooves Americans to diversify their holdings. If there’s a triggering event or series of events that cripple the financial systems or devalue the U.S. Dollar, wealth can evaporate quickly. To hedge against potential turmoil, many Americans are looking in two directions: Crypto and physical precious metals.
There are huge advantages to cryptocurrencies, but there are also inherent risks because “virtual” money can become challenging to spend. Add in the push by central banks and governments to regulate or even replace cryptocurrencies with their own versions they control and the risks amplify. There’s nothing wrong with cryptocurrencies today but things can change rapidly.
As for physical precious metals, many Americans pay cash to keep plenty on hand in their safe. Rolling over or transferring retirement accounts into self-directed IRAs is also a popular option, but there are caveats. It can often take weeks or even months to get the gold and silver shipped if the owner chooses to close their account. This is why Genesis Gold Group stands out. Their relationship with the depositories allows for rapid closure and shipping, often in less than 10 days from the time the account holder makes their move. This can come in handy if things appear to be heading south.
Lots of Potable Water
One of the biggest shocks that hit new preppers is understanding how much potable water they need in order to survive. Experts claim one gallon of water per person per day is necessary. Even the most conservative estimates put it at over half-a-gallon. That means that for a family of four, they’ll need around 120 gallons of water to survive for a month if the taps turn off and the stores empty out.
Being near a fresh water source, whether it’s a river, lake, or well, is a best practice among experienced preppers. It’s necessary to have a water filter as well, even if the taps are still working. Many refuse to drink tap water even when there is no emergency. Berkey was our previous favorite but they’re under attack from regulators so the Alexapure systems are solid replacements.
For those in the city or away from fresh water sources, storage is the best option. This can be challenging because proper water storage containers take up a lot of room and are difficult to move if the need arises. For “bug in” situations, having a larger container that stores hundreds or even thousands of gallons is better than stacking 1-5 gallon containers. Unfortunately, they won’t be easily transportable and they can cost a lot to install.
Water is critical. If chaos erupts and water infrastructure is compromised, having a large backup supply can be lifesaving.
Pharmaceuticals and Medical Supplies
There are multiple threats specific to the medical supply chain. With Chinese and Indian imports accounting for over 90% of pharmaceutical ingredients in the United States, deteriorating relations could make it impossible to get the medicines and antibiotics many of us need.
Stocking up many prescription medications can be hard. Doctors generally do not like to prescribe large batches of drugs even if they are shelf-stable for extended periods of time. It is a best practice to ask your doctor if they can prescribe a larger amount. Today, some are sympathetic to concerns about pharmacies running out or becoming inaccessible. Tell them your concerns. It’s worth a shot. The worst they can do is say no.
If your doctor is unwilling to help you stock up on medicines, then Jase Medical is a good alternative. Through telehealth, they can prescribe daily meds or antibiotics that are shipped to your door. As proponents of medical freedom, they empathize with those who want to have enough medical supplies on hand in case things go wrong.
Energy Sources
The vast majority of Americans are locked into the grid. This has proven to be a massive liability when the grid goes down. Unfortunately, there are no inexpensive remedies.
Those living off-grid had to either spend a lot of money or effort (or both) to get their alternative energy sources like solar set up. For those who do not want to go so far, it’s still a best practice to have backup power sources. Diesel generators and portable solar panels are the two most popular, and while they’re not inexpensive they are not out of reach of most Americans who are concerned about being without power for extended periods of time.
Natural gas is another necessity for many, but that’s far more challenging to replace. Having alternatives for heating and cooking that can be powered if gas and electric grids go down is important. Have a backup for items that require power such as manual can openers. If you’re stuck eating canned foods for a while and all you have is an electric opener, you’ll have problems.
Don’t Forget the Protein
When most think about “prepping,” they think about their food supply. More Americans are turning to gardening and homesteading as ways to produce their own food. Others are working with local farmers and ranchers to purchase directly from the sources. This is a good idea whether doomsday comes or not, but it’s particularly important if the food supply chain is broken.
Most grocery stores have about one to two weeks worth of food, as do most American households. Grocers rely heavily on truckers to receive their ongoing shipments. In a crisis, the current process can fail. It behooves Americans for multiple reasons to localize their food purchases as much as possible.
Long-term storage is another popular option. Canned foods, MREs, and freeze dried meals are selling out quickly even as prices rise. But one component that is conspicuously absent in shelf-stable food is high-quality protein. Most survival food companies offer low quality “protein buckets” or cans of meat, but they are often barely edible.
Prepper All-Naturals offers premium cuts of steak that have been cooked sous vide and freeze dried to give them a 25-year shelf life. They offer Ribeye, NY Strip, and Tenderloin among others.
Having buckets of beans and rice is a good start, but keeping a solid supply of high-quality protein isn’t just healthier. It can help a family maintain normalcy through crises.
Prepare Without Fear
With all the challenges we face as Americans today, it can be emotionally draining. Citizens are scared and there’s nothing irrational about their concerns. Being prepared and making lifestyle changes to secure necessities can go a long way toward overcoming the fears that plague us. We should hope and pray for the best but prepare for the worst. And if the worst does come, then knowing we did what we could to be ready for it will help us face those challenges with confidence.
Couldn’t happen to a better “people.
They literally voted for this. 🤷🏿
Thank a demon crat
Lets not forget our GOP watched it all happen, claimed to do something about it, than did nothing.
The GOP watch it all happened as their hands were tied. You voted for it now reap what you sow.
Time to arm-up my friends and remember, “Our Right to Protect Ourselves and our Families is Sacrosanct and Constitutionally protected.” With over 20 million illegal immigrants most of whom do no have any means of sustaining themselves over the long haul will eventually demand we give them our hard earned labors so they can survive.
If you are one of those left leaning slobbering leftist, it may be time to consider doing what your policies demand, like feeding the indigent, because if you don’t they’ll steal from you just as easily as they would from the rich anti-gunners.
We also want the illegals to know we have our personal weapons for a reason, and if you can’t figure that out it may be to your detriment, because we won’t fire a warning shot. !!!
…an under reported ‘crime wave’ is ‘stealing homes’ by unscrupulous people…phony ‘Quit Claim Documents’…phony ‘Rental Contracts’…abuse of ‘Squatters Rights’ contests…and unfortunately many counties and cities encourage such illeagal practices that enable such thievery that it multiplies so rapidity that it is now nation wide and getting more frequent everywhere…this crime hurts older retired people since they don’t have the money to hire an attorney to go after the culprits in a ‘civil court proceeding’…the local law-enforcement many times side in with the ‘criminals’ and won’t purse ‘criminal charges’ because it looks ‘too racist’ and makes ‘bad optics’ for the city or county…the cost of the legal ‘defense’ for the perpetrators is often covered by the ‘ACLU’, pro-bono civil rights attorneys and/or ‘immigrate defense funds’ for WOKE, La Raza and such like resources available to criminals that the real ‘victims’ have no chance in court…and even if the real home owners do get a favorable verdict that it takes so long for the proceedings that often the clean up and repairs to the property and house are extensive and expensive…the whole mess sucks….BIG TIME !…
AFFIRMATIVE and excellently explained!
…thanks…am an older (80yrs) US Citizen and have lived in Arizona my whole adult life time…I have NEVER seen such corruption and under-handed thievery that is flourishing in my state Arizona…yes, Arizona isn’t perfect in many ways but there was a time many years ago that ‘crime’ was a ‘dirty word’ (I know because I spent 7 years as a city police officer and 7 years as a AZ DPS Highway Patrol Officer…14 years from the mid 60’s to 1980…I got an offer that doubled my salary and I transcended out of law-enforcement into the business world which at the time was a good move for my family…but yes I still miss catching the crooks…at the time of my law-enforcement career we seemed to have a large amount of ‘public support’ which is all but absent now…I have fewer days ahead of me than I have in front of me but am willing to ‘fight..fight’..’fight’…and YES…I’m a ‘TRUMP SUPPORTER’…100%…’Make America Great Again’…amen
I would like to salue ALL the Secret Service whores and skanks and sluts who protected methhead, cokehead, sleazoid, traitor, and so forth, Hunter Biden during the Biden regime!
Hunter’s great new teeth are marvelous, wish the rest of us had such dental accees (he chewed his previous ones to nubs, something to do with meth usage???)!
/SARC
…Biden would have never been able to hurt America with his idiotic polices if he didn’t have the support and approval of the Progressive National News Media (and also sometimes Local News)…a dumbed down citizenry…a politically motivated educational system…a misdirected religious environment devoted to ‘WOKE’ ideals, also psycho misrepresentations and not God given Biblical Principals that we long have forgot…Remember: ‘Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord’….killing 50,000,000+ babies in the protective custody of the mother womb is insanity…Codifying into Law the protection of sexual perverts is also insanity…God created Adam and Eve NOT Adam and Steve…( looks like my b/p will be high today and its still just early morning…good day to be alive !…
