This week coming up I think the biggest story I’m watching is the collapse of the border, the flood of illegal aliens into NYC and Chicago and how that plays out both for the economy and the social fabric. I’m also concerned about who the immigrants are and will talk about some rumors going around. Usually I link to articles for this but today I’m going to just related some things I have heard or am actively talking about with people into national security.
First as usual I’m going to explain the background of why I have these contacts and what I know about “NatSec” and other fancy terms for knowing about threats to American security that go beyond just regular crime. I’ve been doing stuff online about politics and crime for about 20 years and much of it was dealing with communist and other ideological groups with ties to foreign governments or terror cells. The site I first began on was a site called Red Alerts which is still up and in the very early days of it I did a lot about groups like World Can’t Wait and other groups like that. During that time people who did or now still do work in either the national security “think tanks” or journalism/activism who I still on occasion speak with. So this is speculation and analysis of events from people who do speculation and conjecture professionally.
The following is sort of a “word on the street” from people who follow this stuff in a professional but not governmental capacity.
So:
You’re going to see some crazy local news reports on social media this next few weeks coming out of Chicago and NYC especially. Hotels in NYC housing migrants are dangerously overwhelmed and inspectors aren’t even able to safely go into the buildings because of violent migrants. These violent migrants are for the most part “overseers” there to watch the migrants who cartels and other gangs are trafficking for sex or labor so they’re hostile to government officials.
Black residents of Chicago are not just “voicing concerns” over immigrant relocation but think (rightly or wrongly, I don’t know) that in essence Latino gangs that routinely target Blacks are being re-enforced by Central American gang members. They fear a very real uptick in race based attacks on even non-gang related Black Americans.
There are already disease outbreaks in the cities with large congregations of illegals. No one at the border is checking, treating or vaccinating anyone coming over. So we are seeing scabies, whooping cough and drug resistant TB.
Chicago and NYC simply don’t have enough existing businesses and tax base to care for these migrants long term. Expect tax rate increases but those won’t work as people flee these areas.
Cartel and smuggling operations have operational parity with our border patrol and National Guard at the southern border. In terms of small arms and armored vehicles they are about equal but cartel forces vastly outnumber American border security. By summer or fall we’ll see them push control to rural areas our side of the border.
Ranchers say they’re overrun and that federal government agents are stopping them from protecting their families and homes, partly with public prosecutions of people who defended themselves. In the same vein the public, political prosecution of “good Samaritans” in certain cases have created a new perception among men in particular that helping people in distress is now basically illegal. I have heard from several men that are saying they are telling people to never help anyone who is being victimized, including self defense trainers. I believe we’re hitting a turning point on this and people will begin ignoring crime victims for fear of political prosecution.
Labor trafficking of children is making local news and by winter you’re probably going to see that the media can no longer ignore it.
I’m going to cover some of these in depth as well as what I think you should do about it. Women in particular are vulnerable when good Samaritans withdraw from helping out with crime victims, especially as unvetted border crossers, some of whom were deported already for sex crimes, start overwhelming the system.
