Can You Explain What Has Gone Wrong With America?
At this point, nobody can
deny that we are a society in decline. In America today, you can buy a
U.S. Senator for 10,000 dollars, test scores for 13-year-olds have dropped to alarmingly low levels, and the CDC is telling us that more people than ever are getting depressed. Our streets are filled with crime, the ranks of the
homeless are absolutely surging, and we are facing the worst drug crisis in the entire
history of our nation.
Meanwhile, corruption is seemingly
everywhere. The guy in the White House and his son have made millions of
dollars in an epic influence-peddling scheme that stretched over many years,
and the mainstream media doesn’t seem to care. Of course they know
exactly what it is like to be bought and paid for, because the only reason the
big news networks can survive is because of the millions of advertising dollars
that the pharmaceutical industry continues to inject into their dying
carcasses.
Victor
Davis Hanson has astutely observed, America was once experiencing a “gradual decline”, but now the
fall of our nation “has accelerated at such an astonishing rate we can scarcely
recognize our country”…
Twenty-first-century America was on a trajectory of gradual
decline—until it began to implode.
Was the accelerant the COVID-19 pandemic and unhinged lockdowns?
Or was the catalyst the woke revolution fueled by the 2020 summer of exempted
rioting, looting, arson, and violence? Or was it perhaps the deranged fixation
on removing Donald Trump from the presidency and destroying the rule of law in
the process? Or all that and more?
Now with the election of Joe Biden, what had been a fast-tracked
decline has accelerated at such an astonishing rate we can scarcely recognize
our country.
I wish that what he is saying wasn’t true.
But it is...
Just a few years ago, organized looting was something that was
fairly uncommon.
Sadly, now we have reached a point where groups of people are
constantly storming into our major retailers, grabbing whatever they want, and
then storming
out…
Retail crime is at a record high, and thieves are becoming
bolder than ever.
“We’ve just had a lot of stressful situations where me or like
one of my coworkers have gotten hit trying to get stuff back,” said Mae McRae,
the manager of Las Vegas boutique Eden Sky. “We have people who completely fill
up their hands and just run out. No care in the world.”
The riots of 2020 were a real turning point, and retail theft
hit the 100 billion dollar mark for the very first time in 2022…
The National Retail Federation found retailers lost
approximately $100 billion last year, which is up from $94 billion in 2021 and
$91 billion in 2020.
“They’re getting more comfortable with it because we won’t chase
after them,” McRae said of shoplifters, noting how many retailers train
employees to not go after the shoplifter for safety reasons.
It is being projected that retail theft will be way above the
100 billion dollar mark this year.
Unfortunately, most of our politicians don’t seem interested in
solving this crisis.
So large retailers are starting to flee the areas that have been
hit the hardest, and that even includes very wealthy cities such as
San Francisco…
A slew of companies have indicated in the past few months that
they will exit locations in San Francisco’s downtown area, moves AT&T,
Westfield and Nordstrom recently said they would also make.
Reports of AT&T’s closure of its San Francisco flagship,
located at 1 Powell Street in the Union Square area, first came about late last
week. That will take place in August, with the workers getting “offered jobs at
one of the many other retail locations in the city,” an AT&T spokesperson
told FOX Business on Monday.
Instead of working hard to fix our growing problems, our
politicians are busy working hard to win their next elections, and for most of
them that means making appearances at the “pride parades” that are taking place
all over America this month.
In New York, approximately 100,000 people marched in the Big
Apple’s world famous pride parade on Sunday, and it was expected “to draw
roughly a million spectators”…
Spotted among the amalgam of drag queens and activists marching
down Fifth Avenue were figures like Eric Adams, Kathy Hochul, and Chuck Schumer
– three of roughly 100,000 participants taking part in the parade’s main
procession.
This year’s march – the 53rd in the city’s history – is expected
to draw roughly a million spectators, while featuring some 60 floats that speak
to the LGBTQ situation not only in New York, but across the country.
There is absolutely no doubt about where the financial capital
of the world stands.
At one point, some participants in the parade began chanting
slogans that
caused great alarm, but the mainstream media will not be covering this.
Needless to say, the mainstream media will not cover anything
that puts such festivities in a bad light.
During the Seattle pride parade, men that were fully exposed
were allowed to participate.
In the old days, that would get you arrested for “indecent
exposure”, but in our time we celebrate that sort of a thing.
Of course there were lots of young children along the parade
routes in Seattle, New York and in all of the other cities where such parades
have been held this month.
Their innocence is being stolen from them.
But nobody seems to care, because this is what we have become as
a nation.
If we were given another 20 or 30 years, what would our society
look like?
You might want to think about that, because the truth is
that time is
running out for America.
If we stay on the self-destructive path that we are on, we will
reach the end of the road very rapidly, and so let us hope for a great
awakening to happen soon.

The Catastrophic Failures Of The Biden Administration Are
Motivating More Americans Than Ever To Prepare For An Apocalypse
The verdict is in. Joe Biden is the worst
president in the entire history of our nation. Just about everything that
Biden has done since he entered the White House has turned out badly, and our
once great nation is now barreling down a deeply self-destructive path.
If we do not reverse course, our country is not going to have a future, &
more Americans than ever are losing faith in the government. A new survey
has discovered that a lack of faith in the government in DC is motivating large
numbers to hoard “water, food, warm
clothing, weapons, and cash” for the extremely chaotic times that are
ahead.
