How Are We Going To Get Out Of This Thing, I Might Have To End Up With Nothing

A report from Business Insider. “‘To be expected, with rates rising as quickly as they have, we were going to see a slowdown in prices, but certainly we are now seeing the market slam on the brakes very quickly here through the summer months,’ says Andy Walden, the vice president of enterprise research at mortgage data provider Black Knight. Black Knight’s data shows that home prices have pulled back from their recent peaks in popular markets like San Jose, Seattle and San Francisco by 5.1%, 3.8% and 2.8%, respectively.”

The Montana Free Press. “Real estate agents working in Helena, the Flathead Valley, Bozeman and Billings generally said homes are still selling, but that properties are typically seeing fewer offers and staying on the market longer than they were last year, trends that give buyers more negotiating power. Additionally, sellers are in some cases finding they need to dial down ambitious list prices — a sign the market may be reaching a plateau. Missoula’s median single-family home sales price dipped slightly in July, declining to $525,000 — $37,500 less than the June median.”

The Daily Independent in Arizona. “Some Phoenix homebuilders reported a spike in cancellations of new home contracts as the local housing market adjusts to less demand and more supply. Over the last few months, the cancellation rate has jumped to around 30% to 35% in the Phoenix metropolitan statistical area, said Steven Hensley, housing analyst at Zonda.”

“‘We have seen an uptick in cancellations in the new home market,’ Hensley said. Richmond American Homes— another Phoenix homebuilder — announced a sizable spike in home sale cancellations. ‘Cancellations as a percentage of beginning backlog increased 400 basis points to 9.7% from 5.7%,’ the July regulatory filing said.”

“‘After several consecutive quarters of increasing prices and strong demand, we experienced a noticeable decline in sales activity in the second quarter of 2022,’ said David Mandarich, the company’s president and CEO. ‘We believe this was a natural reaction to the rapid rise in mortgage rates and reduced consumer confidence that took place during the quarter, and one that will likely require some realignment by industry participants.'”

The Sequim Gazette in Washington. “Marguerite Glover, co-owner of Peter Black Real Estate, said the market has slowed down but ‘things are still selling.’ She said, ‘It’s taking a little bit longer. Before we would sell in hours and now it’s a few weeks.’ Mariia Bush, a loan consultant with Caliber Home Loans, said some buyers got discouraged during the pandemic as they were outbid by multiple offers, and sales well above asking prices. ‘Now the market isn’t as competitive,’ she said. ‘Sellers are willing to entertain offers.'”

“Glover said in recent years for homes ‘with a three-bedroom, two-bathroom house on an acre, people could ask anything they wanted. Now with interest rates up it’s getting more realistic.'”

The Denver Post in Colorado. “A big chill continued to descend on metro Denver’s housing market last month as home sales fell sharply and the number of listings continued to soar, according to the Denver Metro Association of Realtors. There were more than twice as many homes available at the end of July as at the end of April. Prices are also starting to come down in a more noticeable way. The median closing price of a single-family home sold in July was $650,000, which is down 3% from June.”

“‘With all those uncertainties looming over potential buyers, a housing bubble should not be one of them because housing prices are based on supply and demand,’ said Andrew Abrams, chairman of the DMAR Market Trends Committee in comments accompanying the report. ‘Our supply is relatively low…  While prices may go down and days in the MLS may go up, we are still far away from a bubble.'”

The Dallas Morning News in Texas. “One of the largest iBuyers in the nation is now offering homes for sale on its website before widely listing them to the public, a move aimed at helping buyers avoid price negotiations and bidding wars. The company has an appraisal price match guarantee as well. If a customer buys an Opendoor Exclusive and the home appraises for less than the purchase price on contract, the company will reduce the price by up to $50,000 to match the appraised value. As of the first quarter, homes sold using an iBuying service made up 5.1% of the Dallas-Fort Worth market and 1.3% of the national housing market, according to Zillow.”

Palo Alto Online in California. “The median price of a single-family home in Palo Alto dropped to $3.55 million in the second quarter of this year, representing a 13% decline from a record-breaking $4.1 million in the first quarter. Many of the open houses for entry-level homes priced below $4 million in Palo Alto had almost no visitors in recent weeks. Absorption ratio, the percentage of active listings that go into a pending sale during the same period, is a relatively real-time indication of the hotness of the market. In the first quarter, the ratio was 73% for single-family homes in Palo Alto. The ratio went down to 43% in May and 23% in June. It now takes more than two weeks on average to sell a property, compared with eight days in the first quarter of this year. Many of the entry-level homes are not selling at all.”

The Sacramento Bee. “The 2022 real estate cool down hit most of California in June, as sale prices dropped throughout much of the state. According to the California Association of Realtors, the median sale price of a single family home in the state dropped 4% in June compared to May. The biggest drop was seen in the Bay Area, where the median sale price was down 7%. Most of the Sacramento region saw price drops in June. Sacramento County’s median sale price of $560,000 was 3.4% lower than the previous month. Placer County prices were down 2% between May and June and El Dorado County saw a 1.9% drop.”

“‘We’ve seen a massive change with housing inventory,’ local appraiser and market analyst Ryan Lundquist wrote. Lundquist’s data also show that roughly 47% of listings in the region have a price reduction.”

CTV News in Canada. “The average price at which houses sold in Windsor-Essex has declined by nearly 25 per cent over the past five months, according to the Windsor-Essex County Association of Realtors (WECAR). Updated numbers showing a consistent decline of the average home selling price month-by-month since March. At the time, houses in Windsor-Essex sold on average for $723,739. According to WECAR, that number dropped to $557,989 in July — a decline of $165,750 or 23 per cent.”

“For real estate salesperson Sandeepp Sampath Kumar, the current state of the market has given buyers more leverage, allowing them to place conditions on their offers. ‘In 2021 and early 2022, most offers were all firm with no conditions,’ says Kumar.”

Global News in Canada. “Residential home sales in Metro Vancouver have seen more than a 40-per cent decrease, comparing July 2021 to this year and a nearly 25-per cent decrease in just one month. The Fraser Valley Real Estate Board said there has been more than a 50-per cent decrease in sales comparing July 2021 to this year and a 22-per cent decrease in home sales from June to July.”

“‘The weaker demand resulted in prices dropping for the fourth consecutive month, most notably for detached homes which ended the month with a benchmark price of $1,594,400, down 3.5 per cent from last month and by 10.2 per cent since peaking at $1,776,700 in March,’ Lilian Choi said, Fraser Valley Real Estate Board’s communications manager.”

From News.com.au in Australia. “A Sydney builder has ‘vanished’ leaving homeowners ‘distressed’ as they have poured hundreds of thousands into unfinished houses and face never being able to complete them. However, the owner of Ajit Constructions, Amarjit Khakh said he is currently on a family holiday in Europe and is doing his best to try not to go into liquidation. Neeraj Sikka and his family are one of the impacted homeowners, who have been building an $885,000 home in the suburb of North Kellyville, which was meant to be completed by June this year. Instead, the 46-year-old has been left with a half-built house that has no roof and has been exposed to months of rain leaving the floorboards mouldy and black, said Mr Sikka.”

“Mr Sikka said he has paid out $387,000 to Ajit Construction – 40 per cent of the project price – but has no idea what is happening with his home and as a result his health has suffered. ‘I am very distressed. I can’t sleep at night. I’m talking to a psychiatrist and I’m on blood pressure medication right now,’he told news.com.au. ‘I’m writing emails at three at night with no respite and I’m so deep in debt I borrowed $800 from someone to pay bills. I can barely breathe sometimes I get so anxious from anxiety attacks. My family is so distressed. I have constant fights at home. I don’t have money and had to borrow money from friends and my wife feels like it’s pretty insulting – we both work and I have gotten her into this mess and it’s no fault of mine.'”

“‘I’m wondering how we are going to get out of this thing,’ he said. ‘I might have to end up with nothing as I owe money to the bank, I can’t pay every week, I can’t sustain the $1500 every week and for the last so many months nothing is happening on site. I really don’t have any money. I am really ashamed. I never thought in my whole life this would happen to me while living in Australia. I’ve been here for close to 17 years.'”

“Another family that had been saving their whole life for their first home was Manish Agrawal’s. They signed up to build a double storey duplex, with four bedrooms in each, for $698,700 with Ajit Constructions in July last year in the suburb of Schofields, which was renamed to Nirimba Fields. But the married man said despite paying $152,000 for construction, including $12,000 directly to suppliers for window frames and bricks, he only has a slab and partition wall on his property.”

“‘I’m stuck so badly. No one is working on my site and we can’t go to another builder until I have the certificates and they are not co-operating with me,’ he said. ‘I’m looking for another builder and I’m in touch with a couple of builders who are asking for minimum of $150,000 to $260,000 more to complete the project. It’s such a huge amount of money which I don’t know how I will arrange as it’s unlikely the bank will fund the difference.'”

“Then there’s Reza Thebuwana who has already paid $297,000 to Ajit Constructions for a single storey, four bedroom home in Nirimba Fields. The IT worker, who has three kids, signed up with the company in March 2021 to build his $330,000 home.There are no kitchen fittings and the electrical work and plumbing hasn’t even started, while the bathroom is also missing tiles, he added.”

“Mr Thebuwana describes his situation as a ‘living nightmare.’ ‘This builder told us that they would hand over the house in April 2022, so given the short period we moved into a two-bedroom apartment and have been living in this temporary location for nearly two years now with two fully grown kids and a newborn,’ he revealed. ‘It’s very difficult, it’s a big toll on the children, I feel so bad for them. It’s not ideal living conditions for staying such a long time.'”

“Then there’s Ashish Kandoi who had Ajit Constructions agree to pay $3200 a month if his house wasn’t finished by February this year in an email seen by news.com.au. Yet the house remains incomplete and he said he still hasn’t seen a cent, he said. He’s paid $330,000 to the company but currently has a house that he claims is missing various work, has gaps between the windows and bricks and no appliances, he said.”

“‘It is not liveable, because there is no electricity or water in the house so obviously we can’t live there,’ he said. ‘A lot of work is half done and a lot of work has been done wrong, but at this stage I want the house to be completed rather than getting a perfect house.’ The dad-of-one claims there have just been ‘false promises’ to get the house finished. ‘I lost all hope when no work happened for two months,’ he added.”

    Fooked.

    1. As of the first quarter, homes sold using an iBuying service made up 5.1% of the Dallas-Fort Worth market’

      It’s become clear that these companies are almost single-handedly responsible for driving up prices the last couple years. Why is this allowed in a necessity such as shelter? I’m not a big government guy, but this is just immoral. There needs to be some protections for people.

      1. Unaffordable housing discourages family formation, which lowers birth rates even more below the replacement level, which is a facet of the depopulation agenda.

        Heck, even Mexico’s birthrate has dropped to 1.7%.

    2. Black Knight’s data shows that home prices have pulled back from their recent peaks in popular markets like San Jose, Seattle and San Francisco by 5.1%, 3.8% and 2.8%, respectively.”

      There goes my 3% equity!

      1. What’s up with all the blacks lately? There’s Black Knight, BlackRock, Blackstone, and apparently some clever libtard in Washington thought it would be cute to open Peter Black Real Estate Schlonging Services. Imagine the shame of being far underwater after buying from them. How do you brag to your friends about that? Perhaps in Washington it is a rite of passage.

        1. Don’t forgot Blackwater, which had to change its name to Xe after their employees had too much fun in Iraq.

          2. “Haha, extremely nasty for sure.”

            But not for someone who grew-up with farm animals and wet-markets.

        3. It’s much worse than that for those that fight the Fed.

          Don’t fight the Fed my good friends…. Don’t fight the Fed.

  2. Bank of England warns the UK will fall into recession this year

    The Bank of England has warned that the UK will fall into recession this year as it raised interest rates from 1.25% 1.75% in a bid to curb soaring prices.

    It expects the economy to shrink in the final three months of this year and keep shrinking until the end of 2023.

    This would make it the longest downturn since the 2008 financial crisis.

    It blamed the downturn largely on rising gas prices following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, warning a typical energy bill will hit £3,500 in October.

    This is three times what the Bank forecast a year ago.

    It expects this sharp rise in energy bills to drive inflation, the rate at which prices grow, to 13%.

    It warned UK economic growth was already slowing, adding: “The latest rise in gas prices has led to another significant deterioration in the outlook for the UK and the rest of Europe”.

    The interest rate rise is the sixth increase in a row as the Bank of England battles to dampen inflation.

      Gasoline futures now back to where they were then. What your next idea?

      1. ummmmmmmm i know this is so last month but isn’t 4 quarters of declining output (GDP) called a depression??????

  3. had to borrow money from friends and my wife feels like it’s pretty insulting – we both work and I have gotten her into this mess and it’s no fault of mine.’”
    Hate to break it to you, and yeah, you had a bad turn of events here, but you chose the builder, and made the decision on when to build and to build new rather than buy used, so Yeah, you are to blame.
    It’s called accountability, deal with it.

    1. One thing I’ve noticed about all the males (as distinct from men) in the Democrat Party: ZERO accountability.

    2. “I can barely breathe sometimes I get so anxious from anxiety attacks. My family is so distressed. I have constant fights at home. I don’t have money”

      Winnah!

    3. “…we both work and I have gotten her into this mess…”

      Don’t worry about your ED because her legs are closed, welded shut!

    4. What kind of cvck would borrow money from friends to fund a lifestyle they can’t afford? I’ve never even heard such thing.

    5. “who had Ajit Constructions agree to pay $3200 a month if his house wasn’t finished by February”

      Seriously? How can you think that the builder might skip out on building the house, but wouldn’t skip out on paying you a late fee. If they can lie once, they’ll lie twice.

      So many stories of people paying for houses to be built only to be stiffed by the builder. No thanks for me! I guess buying a used house isn’t so bad. At least the thing was built during better times.

  4. Oh dear….

    Aussie mortgage collapse signals house price doom

    https://www.macrobusiness.com.au/2022/08/aussie-mortgage-collapse-signals-house-price-doom/

    Data released on Tuesday by the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) shows that mortgage commitments fell by 4.4% June, which was the biggest monthly decline since May 2020.

    This decline in mortgage commitments captured the first two RBA rate hikes – i.e. 0.25% in May and 0.50% in June – but obviously has not captured the 0.50% rises in July and August.

    As we know, Australian dwelling values have fallen sharply since the RBA first began hiking rates, with values down 2.9% at the 5-city aggregate level, driven by heavy falls across Sydney (-5.4%) and Melbourne (-3.5%):

  5. “‘With all those uncertainties looming over potential buyers, a housing bubble should not be one of them because housing prices are based on supply and demand,’ said Andrew Abrams, chairman of the DMAR Market Trends Committee in comments accompanying the report.

    Realtors are liars. Housing prices are in a massive bubble because the Fed increased the money supply to Zimbabwe-like levels during the scamdemic.

  6. I don’t have money and had to borrow money from friends and my wife feels like it’s pretty insulting – we both work and I have gotten her into this mess and it’s no fault of mine.’”

    Zero accountability for foolishly buying into a housing bubble.

  7. I am really ashamed. I never thought in my whole life this would happen to me while living in Australia. I’ve been here for close to 17 years.’”

    Australia’s globalist Quisling government didn’t just import the 3rd World, they also enabled 3rd World levels of corruption.

      2. What I noticed was that the ‘builder’ had plenty of cash to take his whole family on a European vacation. I’m sure his unattended home has some spare building materials available.

        1. I’m sure his unattended home has some spare building materials available.

          It’s possible that he and his family have already expatriated most of their net worth and aren’t planning on returning. There might be no house to ransack.

  12. “However, the owner of Ajit Constructions, Amarjit Khakh said he is currently on a family holiday in Europe and is doing his best to try not to go into liquidation.”

    Completely logical. You’re going broke so you take a vacation. Sounds similar to a president I know who spends weekends in Delaware.

  14. “…sellers are in some cases finding they need to dial down ambitious list prices — a sign the market may be reaching a plateau. Missoula’s median single-family home sales price dipped slightly in July, declining to $525,000 — $37,500 less than the June median.”

    Will the plateau be a permanently high one? Time will tell…

      1. I wonder how far along the DNC is on licensing it’s CCP ideological mentors’ blueprints and “lesson plans” for Uighur internment camps.

      2. When you have guys like Dr. .Michael Yerdon now saying in essence that he now believe the Covid was faked and the PCR test established the fraud of the invisible enemy Covid, you got to take note of it.

        But, why were people getting sick and dying?
        What if most disease is caused by toxins and poisons , polluted water, toxins in the air, lack of nutrition, lack of sun, toxins from lack of modern day plumbing systems, and yes bites from insects that have poison in their bites.
        Why did disease clear up so dramatically fol!owing the modern day plumbing and water systems.
        They have nothing but proven fraud in the establishment of the Rockerfeller based Medical system of pharmaceutical remedy for the so called invisible virus , that causes disease, they never seem to be able to isolate in accordance with scientific proof.
        They say the virus is to small to isolate, but some stuff they see by microscopes, must be viruses. Virus deniers say that ” stuff” is the sludge or breakdown of cells , that’s the natural process of clean out.
        What if they just made the virus germ theory up to sell vaccines and medications , without proof by true scientific method .
        So, you got this virus that is only able to replicate if it finds a body to somehow get into, because it needs to use the cells of that body to reproduce, than infect another body.
        So, if mother nature set up this life form of viruses, wouldn’t that of wiped out the human race a long time ago?
        But your suppose to take a vaccine, that trains your body to respond to the virus, because you won’t be able to respond otherwise, because now you have memory of the virus invader.
        What about the Black Plague? What about it. Nobody was around able to determine if a toxic insect caused it or not.
        Throughout most of history conditions were such that people were plagued by insects, unclean conditions , toxins and poisons , polluted water, and the lack of proper waste disposal.
        Pesticides might be responsible for poison by toxins no doubt.
        So Covid was establish by fake footage of Chinese people falling in the streets. Than same Country gave the geno of the virus , taken from one sick China persons lungs. Than mass testing with the PCR, that can’t actually determine a disease, according to its inventor.
        Than , everything was labeled Covid, and the regular flu deaths disappeared. Hospitals and Health agencies and media, stonewalled meds that worked, for death by mal practice in hospitals .
        Vaccine program didn’t stop Covid infection , and death and injury all causes , and injury, is skyrocking directly following the vaccine campaign. But, the FDA doesn’t care.
        In 1917- 1919 they also had a mass vaccine program going on that was originally given to the troops. Odd, that this so called Spanish flu affected a lot of young troops.
        The evidence shows by researchers that through time , verses actual newspaper articles during the Spanish flu, that the death count has been dramatically upped .

        So, in thinking outside the box, verses the narratives, what if its poisons and toxin , maybe deliberately release, that is causing illness, where the elderly and people with co morbidities are the most vunerable.
        What if the Medical Cartel had a bunch of false premises that were created to get you to take vaccines and pharmaceuticals?
        Why do they want to take food that the humans have always survived on , and replace with bugs, and chemical altered fake food.?
        What if Climate Change is a fake permise, that’s being used to enslave us, kill us, and usher in the One World Order dictorship by Corporate Governance, along with fake pandemics. What if a women is a women and a man is a man .
        Look the narratives are getting more absurd by the minutes, and the true colors of a small group of psychos trying to kill us and enslave us and take all freedoms is upon us. They want you to eat bugs .
        And what the hell are those chem trails they are inserting in the air all the time?
        Sorry, I went on a rant.

        1. I went on a rant

          Maybe down a dark hole. Despite all the lies we’ve been told, I don’t think it will help to abandon the concept of disease transmitted by germs.

          1. You might be right. And at the same time, it DEFINITELY won’t hurt to examine the “proof” of viruses with an open mind. If you show me one single paper demonstrating that so-called viruses (etymology of that word is Latin for “poison,” btw) exist, then I will graciously stand corrected and bow out of any further convos regarding the matter.

            For the last 26 years I’ve made a living explaining published studies to medical professionals like neurologists, veterinarians, Maxio/craniofacial surgeons and dentists…. I have a paid PubMed account. I know my way around research and I can’t find a single one.

          2. Look up some papers which show TEM images. That’s the most definitive evidence we have. If you need more proof, well, nobody will be of any help.

        2. So, in thinking outside the box, verses the narratives, what if its poisons and toxin , maybe deliberately release, that is causing illness

          Well, if what I had was caused by toxins that are permanently around us, I should still be sick, or maybe even dead.

          1. The toxins might be in a state of flux depending on where you go, what you consume, if you have a build up, how healthy your life style is, what pharmaceuticals you might be taking , chem trails or maybe temporary toxins , or ones in the food supply, or maybe even water, or pesticides. Maybe its 5 G or any host of things like that.
            It’ s clear that the fake vaccine is poison, and any industry that would fear monger the globe into taking it, while they supressed drugs that work , for killing protocols, could be a industry that has faulty premises about just about everything.
            Oh right, you have a deficiency of a chemical that Big Pharmacy produces, with all the side effects listed. They just normalized people into thinking that all these side effects from drugs is a normal risk.
            By 2019 for years death by pharmaceuticals was listed as the third cause of death in US, even before Covid. Oh, thats a industry that wouldn’t have false premises regarding the cause of disease.
            And the evidence shows they rig trials, and Scientists are bribed.
            Not trying to take away anything good that has come from medical science, but the profit motive going way back could of corrupted what they claim is science. In fact there is a lot of evidence , that this is the case.
            Everything we thought was true , needs to be reassessed.

          2. Well, it definitely felt like a viral infection, as opposed to poisoning. Now if you’re jabbed, then yeah, you were poisoned.

      1. Does a 5 minute walk from the courtroom to the gallows count as “suddenly” because that’s how this is going to end for these globalists.

        These people need to die ☠️

        1. I have serious doubts that there will be any Earthly consequences to their evil. Even if we come to our senses other countries never will, and the evil will flee to those shores when their arrest becomes possible.

          1. I’m sure people like Fauci have nice nest eggs stashed away in safe havens, just in case. Though judging by his hubris he seems to have no fear at the moment. This would be the perfect time for him to slink away to Oz or Kiwiland, as people are now worried about other things.

          2. That’s when justice becomes extra-judicial.

            Billionaires can afford security and private islands, the majority of the mid tier blue checkmarks can not.

            The Day Of The Rope is coming…

          4. There must be consequences for this epic attack on humanity , and outright murder.
            . .
            All systems that were corrupted , in order to make these crimes possible , have to be purged and corrected.
            Its obvious that money was the great weapon that was used to corrupt Governments and the agencies.
            Why should Bill Gates be donating to the WHO, who is a health agency. Why should these Health agencies be profiting from vaccines or hold patterns on disease?
            And all the foundations, under the illusion of charity, influencing by grants health policy.
            Dr Fauci in charge for years on grants for billions of dollars that defined the course of the corruption of science, and the rise of Big Pharmacy taking over medicine.

            All the years that were wasted on Fauci interfering with valid science, so Big Pharmacy could become the listed third biggest killer by 2019. Than the Covid new medical tyranny, and the fake killer shots.
            The crimes are enormous and it must be addressed.
            Klaus Schwab heads up a terrorist origination called WEF ,
            of about 35O Mega Corporations , that plan to take over a good deal of the world . Nobody voted for this.

          5. Billionaires can afford security and private islands, the majority of the mid tier blue checkmarks can not.

            As long as they can flee to a cuck safe haven like “New Zilland”, they’ll be safe,

      2. In Colorado,
        And what do we know symptoms are, other than what we have been told. How do we know that the so called symptoms of a flu isn’t some kind of detoxifying that the body is riding itself of.
        I heard a Harvard Doctor say in essence that in med school they told the students that one of these days they will prove that the virus exists but in the meantime go by the theory it does. Same Doctor said that a lot of skin conditions like poxes are caused by having a deficiency of collagen, that happens often when kids are going through rapid growing. This is a totally different explanation of chicken pox.
        And Dr Michael Yeadon questioning viruses, after working for Pfizer for 17 years .
        Ok, so you think its a more plausible theory that you take a vaccine , to train your immune system to combat a virus, should you ever run into the virus in the future.
        And that training takes place, because Big Pharmacy injected you with a dead version of the virus, along with a bunch of other toxic chemicals, ( if you taking about traditional vaccine. ) Who knows about the gene altering vaccines.
        I’m just open to the fact that different explanations for disease might be possible.

    3. “Dr. Fauci: If you aren’t up-to-date on Covid vaccines and boosters, you’re ‘going to get into trouble”

      How long is this little squirt going to keep selling this cr@p?

        1. And the investigation in Congress just started on gain of function isn’t going to go anywhere because the cu!prits are asserting right to not disclose.

          And Congress doesn’t seem to be able to stop the FDA turning us into lab rats, while Congress has funded the purchase of these
          fake vaccines, and funded fake incentives to hospitals for Covid deaths.
          And the DOJ under Biden/ Pelosi isn’t about to investigate anything that should be investigated, including the Biden crimes.
          And those Jan 6 insurrectionist, and Donald Trump are the only concern of investigation and arrest. Don’t be surprised if they are getting ready to arrest Donald Trump for Jan 6.
          Don’t be surprised if lockdowns and masks are reasserted , just in time to rig the 2022 elections. Just mail in the ballots, and we will see to it that your vote is counted. Can’t have people running about spreading Covid or monkey pox.

        2. Hanged, drawn and quartered

          The convicted traitor was fastened to a hurdle, or wooden panel, and drawn by horse to the place of execution, where he was then hanged (almost to the point of death), emasculated, disembowelled, beheaded, and quartered (chopped into four pieces). His remains would then often be displayed in prominent places across the country, such as London Bridge, to serve as a warning of the fate of traitors.

        3. Until he hangs from a tree

          I was going to say as long as it keeps working, but yeah, this too.

    4. From the article: “Among adults 50 and over who are eligible for a second booster shot, only 30.9% have gotten it, the data said.”

      I think that says it all. Even some of the older libs, who have faith in the vax, aren’t bothering with another booster. It will be interesting to see how many of them uptake the Omicron booster this fall. And how many will revolt if schools or businesses try to mandate it.

      1. Even some of the older libs, who have faith in the vax, aren’t bothering with another booster.

        Since most of them got covid anyway, even they are realizing that there is no point in getting a booster.

        2. “I’m so grateful for the vaccines and “The Science” for keeping me out of the hospital”. Said many people with extremely low risk factors to begin with.

          1. How old do you have to be to remember “Cold and Flu” season? We didn’t have that the last two years. They called it Covid (which a cold is) and made millions of people hysterical.

          2. and made millions of people hysterical

            Which is quite easy as we have seen.

            Now the warmists are going to scare people into giving up their cars. Maybe there will be buy backs, for that extra incentive. They can even take a picture of you standing next to your former car after it has been compressed into a cube, so you can post it on social media and show that “I’m helping!” Meanwhile that cube gets sent to China where its metal content is recycled and used to make new Chinese cars.

        3. Since most of them got covid anyway,
          My brother got 4 shots as did his son and wife and they all got Covid.
          He talked about the Omicron vaccine so I think they are planing on getting it as well.

          1. He talked about the Omicron vaccine so I think they are planing on getting it as well.

The globalists are stepping up their War on Cash as a prelude to rolling out their Orwellian CBDCs that will give Big Brother total visibility into all of your transactions and sources of income – and will enable globalist Quisling regimes to seize your assets and freeze you out of the financial system at will should your social credit score become sub-par.

    2. And who are the Gods that determine the social credit score ? Score based on what you consume, what you choose, what you think, what you try to buy, where you want to go, what you refuse to do?
      Under a system like that, you are given penalty for doing anything the Gods don’t like.
      As long as I obey the laws, pay my stupid taxes, than why should what I buy, or what I do be monitored, and I get penalty if I don’t do what the social engineers want? And they hold the power to cut you off from your own resources that you presumably have earned , and are entitled to spend as you damn well please.
      And no doubt they plan to take you off to some camp if you don’t take the mandated vaccine you have to prove you took.
      What a hell life they are planning for humanity. Nobody voted for this.

      1. And who are the Gods that determine the social credit score ?

        The ones with the power. And right now they are drunk with power. And never forget:

        When a Republican is elected, he’s “in office”
        When a Democrat is elected, he’s “in power”

      2. who are the Gods that determine the social credit score
        I remember reading that Google suggested that internet searches should be included in determining one’s credit scores. Surprise surprise, Google offered to provide the search histories.

        1. Another reason not to use Google’s search engine even though the only thing I use it for these days is clothes and jewelry shopping.

        2. The polls show that people list climate change as a low priority on the lists of concerns.
          It appears currently they are trying to take fuel and food, without proper replacement, which is creating the threat to survival in many places.
          They are the terrorists, that are fraudsters that have some kind of plan to depopulate, and deprive and enslave people , using faked emergencies to do it.
          Seriously , we need a national debate on Climate Change, with the Scientists that dispute and oppose the narrative, who are probably just as censored as the Scientists and Drs who opposed the Covid narratives.
          They have not convincingly proved Climate Change , or that co2 emissions need to be eliminated, or we are all going die.
          This narrative is as stupid as shutting down the globe over a virus that might of affected .035 of the population, or less.

    Sandy Hook Parents Coming to DC on Air Force One to Lobby Congress
    By Jonathan Karl April 8, 2013

    Eleven parents of children killed in the Sandy Hook massacre will fly to Washington with the president on Air Force One tonight following Obama’s speech in Hartford, Conn.

    They are coming to Washington to lobby Congress this week to pass measures to combat gun violence.

    “There is no more effective advocate than a parent who has lost a child,” a senior administration official tells ABC News.

    1. I dunno for every sandy hook texas columbine parkland there are thousands of deaths by illegal guns in Chicago Detroit NYC Atlanta each year, yet nothing is done to stop that cuase ya noe iz racis

    2. On out local news they are about two months in to daily stories on the sentencing phase of the Marjory Stoneman Douglas school shooting which happened February 14, 2018 in Parkland, Florida. This on the heels of years of segments from victims, families, the shooter and what congress is going to do about it. There are breaks for other MSM national “mass shooting” events. Never anything on the Chicago weekend massacres or blips of our local weekly murders in the hood.

      When it comes to do with rifles (weapons of war) which kill less people than hammers and blunt objects every year in this country and question any of the national mass shooting stories which have peculiar circumstances surrounding them it seems you are a dangerous person who must be silenced much like the January 6 protestors.

      Eric Holder in 1995:

      “We just have to be repetitive about this. It’s not enough to have a catchy ad on a Monday and then only do it every Monday. We have to do this every day of the week and just really brainwash people into thinking about guns in a vastly different way.

    Creditors are set to miss out big time as a collapsed building company reveals just how little it can pay back.

  24. I went and looked at a house yesterday.
    It was ~2100 sq. ft. on a 1/3 acre lot. The asking price is $260,000, so it’s within our budget.
    I walked out and told my realtor I’d pay $160,000 for that house because of the amount of work it needs done.
    He said I wasn’t going to find anything I want in my price range (300k and under).

    These people can suck it. Two years ago I could get an 1,800 sq. ft. house in a really good neighborhood for $240,000. Now these idiots think I’m going to pay $260,000 for a shack in a mediocre neighborhood. We really need a house if we’re going to have more kids, but I’m not playing these games. Fook them.

    1. He said I wasn’t going to find anything I want in my price range (300k and under

      “With you I’m not” should have been your reply, followed by ghosting him.

    2. If you want more children, please do not wait for a house. The more I see, the more I think that couples should have children while they are younger. It’s medically and mentally healthier for all involved. Just rent; the kids will be fine.

      1. Everyone who is married in their late teens and early twenties should have kids at that time. My husband and I got married when I was 29 because it just took us that long to meet. Rents in our area are in excess of 2 grand per month for small houses. Everything is just insanely expensive. I figured if we’re going to pay someone else’s mortgage and repairs for their property I’d rather us just do it for ourselves.

        (snip)

        Scientists say reefs around the world have been dying at an alarming rate for several years because of global warming. Reef corals grow very slowly, and while most of them can live only in warm water, they are highly sensitive to above-normal temperatures.

  31. Orange County Housing Market Update: Median Home Price Drops 8% Since April
    Aug 3, 2022

    The housing market is much slower today than it was a year ago, or even a few months ago. Is the housing market crashing, or will the market level out? Has the housing market bubble burst? Many are asking these questions as homes take much longer to sell, there are less showings, less offers, and more price reductions. It is still a slight seller’s market, but the market continues to slow as supply grows and buyer demand diminishes.

    The primary reason for less buyer demand is much higher interest rates. Mortgage rates have risen from about 3% to about 5.5% today. This makes purchasing a home much more expensive for home buyers and they also lose purchasing power. As a result, there is much less buyer demand. With less demand, the amount of homes for sale in Orange County has started to rise at a rapid pace.

    The median price for all property types in Orange County has dropped since peaking in April. We saw about an 11.5% rise in the median Orange County home price from January to April 2022. It rose from $950,000 to $1,060,000. In July, the median home price has dropped by about 8% all the way back down to $975,000.

    We get a lot of housing market information from “The Orange County Housing Report” that is written by Steven Thomas.

    Aug 3, 2022 Steve Saretsky, a Vancouver realtor at Oakwyn Realty, joins BNN Bloomberg to discuss the July 2022 data for Vancouver home sales that showed a plunge in sales. He says home sales tend to drop precipitously when mortgage rates move north of 3.5%, as there is too much indebtedness and leverage in the housing market. Saretsky says there’s very weak demand and low inventory in the Vancouver market right now and he doesn’t see an imminent rebalancing.

    Over the past decade, George Soros has spent $40 million to elect 75 of his chosen prosecutors,” LELDF President Jason Johnson told The National Desk (TND) in a statement. “In campaigns from Houston and Los Angeles to Philadelphia and Orlando, Soros was the campaign’s biggest spender by far – as much as 90% of the dollars spent in some races.

    Soros isn’t done yet – he’s already spent another million so far this year on his hand-picked district attorneys,” Johnson continued in his statement to TND. “These radical activists now preside over 72 million Americans and 40% of US homicides. Soros is using that campaign money and the hundreds of millions more for supporting organizations to quietly transform the criminal justice system for the worse, promoting dangerous policies and anti-police narratives to advance his radical agenda.

  45. Ok, so Biden has now declared a Public Health Emergency over monkey pox.
    My thoughts are,

    Just in time to tamper with the election
    Now there are two declared emergencies, being Covid and monkey pox.

    This means checks written by Gov to mobilize response, and pad pockets.

    Possible lockdowns and mask mandates.
    Possible EUA on vaccines. Possible closure of non essential business.

    Apparently the 6 thousand cases of monkey pox in US currently is with the gay community, in which 45% have HIV. No deaths registered, two children said to have monkey pox.
    So, they shut down the globe over Covid that wasn’t a threat to 99. 56 % of population. Since monkey pox is even a smaller % threat to the general population , than Covid, than why the emergency call.
    I haven’t seem any of these cases of monkey pox, and there doesn’t seem to be a big run on hospital beds regarding this monkey pox outbreak.

    So, here we go , round two .
    I find it really odd, that a disease like monkey pox , that was so contained for all these years , has happened, especially since they did trial runs on monkey pox, about 6 months before the first case. Same with Covid, they did practice runs on a Covid like virus a couple months before the alledged Covid first case in China.

    Also, I don’t know if this monkey pox is really monkey pox , because it might be vaccine side affects or something else. They are using the PCR to test monkey pox.

    1. two children said to have monkey pox

      I’ve seen 5, which begs the question: how are children getting it?

      1. The contact tracers said it appears they all visited a transvestite story hour at some point but all in different cities so the trail went cold. They are not sure how these children are being exposed yet.
