June 07, 2023 -

This scenario is occurring all across the United States. According to reports, more and more public housing agencies have been purchasing tools such as facial recognition technology and others with artificial intelligence capabilities.

The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) has helped facilitate the purchase of cameras through federal crime-fighting grants meant to keep residents safe. However, a review of court records and interviews with residents, ...

Central Wisconsin communities fighting back against wind turbine industry takeover

May 23, 2023 -

"There is a revolt happening here," said attorney Marti Machtan to The Epoch Times in an exclusive interview. "I've never seen our communities engage like this in my life."

A grassroots advocacy group called Farmland First, of which Machtan is a member, is keeping a close eye on the wind turbine industry, which wants to turn the Dairy State's pristine farmland into an unsightly eyesore – and ear-sore, because those things are loud – of large metal wind turbines that, ironically ...

July 04, 2023 -

While in years past both Airbnb and VRBO would be seeing many additional stays across the United States this time of year, the opposite is happening now. Homeowners who rent out rooms and spaces are seeing dwindling interest, which is driving down prices for stays.

In popular destination cities like Phoenix, Ariz., and Austin, Tex., revenues per listing have dropped by nearly 50 percent, according to the most recent data from AllTheRooms, which compared Airbnb revenues ...

(Article by M Winger republished from WTLReport.com)

“You vill own nothing and you vill be happy.” – Klaus Schwab

It seems there are many in power that share the same beliefs as Schwab.

What if their plan was to make it so you couldn’t buy a house at all, only rent forever?

The end of homeownership is their goal.

Sounds like Mr. Potter from It’s A Wonderful Life has taken over the real estate market.

July 11, 2023 -

According to Sky News, Sunak remarked that the United Kingdom is among 123 nations that signed the Convention on Cluster Munitions (CCM) in December 2008. Instead, the Conservative (Tory) PM reiterated that London will continue to supply tanks and other long-range weapons to Ukraine.

"We will continue to do our part to support Ukraine against Russia's illegal and unprovoked invasion," said Sunak. "But we've done that by providing heavy battle tanks and, most recently, long-range ...

According to the mainstream media outlet, insiders from the White House said Biden is "strongly considering" the approval of the transfer of dual-purpose improved conventional munitions (DPICMs) – the technical name for cluster bombs.

Biden once opposed the use of cluster bombs in war – now he is sending them to Ukraine

July 13, 2023 -

Biden gave then-Israeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin some serious criticisms. At the time, Israel was fighting Palestinian revolutionaries in Lebanon, who had been targeting Israeli communities in northern Israel, forcing the country to invade southern Lebanon.

Amidst reports that Israel had employed cluster bombs in its invasion of Lebanon, several Democrats made it all the way to push for cutting off aid to Israel. Biden at the time noted that if the reports about the ...

January 08, 2024 -

The proposed measures, introduced by the Ministry of Health and Welfare, seek to encourage more couples to raise children to improve the country's low fertility rate. This low rate has been attributed to a variety of factors, including high housing costs, intense and expensive competition in children's education and increasing gender tensions.

According to the ministry, under the new law, the government will offer cash incentives for childbirth, such as ?2 million ($1,521) ...

Democrats push to remove parasite hedge funds from housing market to improve affordability

December 19, 2023 -

Two bills proposed by Democrats this week would require all hedge funds with single-family homes in their portfolios to sell them all off within the next 10 years. The bills would also prohibit hedge funds from owning any single-family homes at all.

In case you have not noticed, housing in America has become just another "stock" that rich people are buying up and hoarding as assets rather than using as a place to live. This has not only driven up housing prices to unsustainable, ...

Biden’s green policies are making housing no longer affordable for the average American

October 22, 2023 -

This is according to Edward Ring, an author and a senior fellow with the conservative think tank, the California Policy Center, who warned of the far-reaching consequences of Biden's "globalist green agenda."

"To allegedly save us all from a 'climate crisis,' development and use of oil, natural gas and coal is being halted," wrote Ring for American Greatness, while at the same time pointing out that the development of renewable energy sources like hydroelectric and nuclear ...

ABSURD: Biden administration asks for $3.3B to fund more housing for illegal migrants

August 15, 2023 -

Fortunately, this request is not expected to pass the Republican-dominated Congress. Many Republicans, including Rep. Chip Roy and 14 other Texas lawmakers, are urging the majority to oppose funding for Biden's migration program. They argued that funding a federal agency at war with their state and people goes against their moral obligation to protect the nation.

"There should be no funding without proper border security," they said.

Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson plans to relocate 1,600 illegal immigrants into special tent communities

September 15, 2023 -

Johnson's new plan to create tent cities for these illegal immigrants contradicts his previous statement that Chicago's immigrant community is an essential contribution to the city's economy. He earlier said the presence of illegals "infuses vitality into [the city's] neighborhoods and enhances the cultural fabric of the greatest city in the world."

This also comes as Johnson urged residents to make a "sacrifice" for the greater good, claiming that things could be ...

Biden sends cluster bombs to Ukraine, contradicting his admin’s past statement that use of such weapons is a WAR CRIME

July 12, 2023 -

Said bombs have been used extensively in the Gulf War, Chechnya, Afghanistan and Iraq. But those involved in the ongoing and "dragging war" –  Russia, Ukraine and the United States did not sign the treaty, making it "easy" for Biden to decide that these will be included in the new weapons package he'll send to Kyiv. He claimed, though, that he had a hard time deciding on this.

"It was a very difficult decision on my part. And by the way, I discussed this with our allies, ...

The taxpayer-funded housing program is part of the city's "sanctuary city" policy that ensures free housing for illegal migrants, who are apparently abusing the system.

In the clip posted on X, taken from a show on Fox Business, reporter Madison Alworth talked about the valid concerns because migrants are "coming in faster than normally seen." She added that it still hasn't been confirmed how much the influx will cost the city.

Alworth added that, up to this point, ...
