1.4 million Americans fled socialist California and New York in a single year.

New data from the U.S. Census shows that around 820,000 people moved out of California and 550,000 out of New York in 2022. They join more than 8 million Americans who moved states in 2022.

High taxes and regulations are forcing productive people to flee: four in ten Californians and and three in ten New Yorkers say they’re considering moving out of state. California’s government recently banned gas lawnmowers and has announced that all vehicles must be electric by 2030. New York’s legislature recently considered erecting concentration camps to house those who resist mandatory vaccination.

  • Many of those moving are headed to low-tax Florida or Texas, the states with the largest influxes in 2022.

Yet another government employee opens fire; 16 killed

Lewiston, Maine. Oct. 26, 2023. Searchers are on the lookout for Robert Card, a career government employee, who is suspected of killing at least 16 innocent people at a Maine restaurant.

Government employees are the wealthiest class in American society, surpassing private business owners and all other types of workers in average wealth and income. The wealthiest 5 counties in the U.S. are now the counties surrounding Washington, D.C. In many other communities, the largest homes are owned by present or former government employees. Sources say the extravagant pay and benefits, vast authority and immunity from accountability bestowed upon contemporary government officials gives them a sense of entitlement not unlike the kings and queens of yesteryear.

In October 2018, retired millionaire former IRS employee Stephen Paddock reportedly gunned down 59 country music fans at a festival in Las Vegas. Then in November 2019, former Marine corporal Ian David Long murdered 12 country fans at a country bar in Thousand Oaks, California. Undercover FBI asset Omar Mateen reportedly gunned down 49 Americans at the Pulse Night Club in Orlando, Florida. Later in 2019 a municipal worker in Virginia Beach, Virginia, DeWayne Craddock, murdered a dozen of his coworkers at the Municipal Center in Virginia Beach.

Thousands of Americans have been murdered by government workers or retired government workers, who view violence against their fellow man as a privilege that comes with governmental authority.


Overregulation: Every Single Exotic Zoo Operator featured in the Tiger King Series is now Imprisoned or Bankrupt.

Many Americans are familiar with the NetFlix “Tiger King” series. During the spring of 2020–as millions of Americans were violently locked in their homes under tyrannical stay-at-home quarantine orders–the Tiger King show was watched by millions.

“Tiger King” featured the quirky world of exotic animal zoo owners, including Joe Exotic, Doc Antle, Tim Stark, and Jeff Low. What the show didn’t emphasize was how federal regulators of the USDA and EPA control, license, and micromanage each of these attractions.

There was a time when America was filled with private roadside exotic animal attractions. Today, the government has driven most of them out of business. Most that do remain are “sanctuaries” under the near-total control of federal regulators. (Most, in fact, work hand in hand with the regulators and actually take the animals that are seized from the for-profit zoos when the government shuts them down.)

Today Joe Exotic is serving a life sentence in federal prison and Doc Antle also sits in prison awaiting sentencing. Tim Stark lives in campers; his exotic animal park has been completely destroyed. Jeff Lowe is on the run, reportedly in Mexico.

Most, if not all of the lions, tigers, and bears that once belonged to these attractions have been seized. Many are dead or disappeared (although the taxpayers are made to pay as much as $50,000 annually per animal to the pro-government “sanctuaries.”

Great News! San Francisco’s Socialist Government must now Slash Budgets

Years of socialist governance in San Francisco has led to hundreds of businesses, and thousands of residents, fleeing the City by the Bay. The few large stores that remain in the downtown area must now hire extravagant security forces. The City’s high taxes and extreme regulations have led many San Franciscans to rethink the cost/benefit analysis regarding life in the City. Now the City’s “rulers” must cut $200 million dollars from the City’s budget.

“Leftists” Now See their Fight as Saving Government “Institutions”

The sad plight of “liberalism” is on display in a recent New Yorker book review by Corey Robin. The essay, “How Do We Survive the Constitution,” laments that American society is increasingly disgusted by government institutions. Polling reveals that Americans have never had less trust in government or mass media.  The largest segment of American society are those who have no trust in the media.

              A similar history can be told regarding Americans’ trust in Congress, the Presidency, all of government, education, academia, and medicine.  As government has taken increasing control over these institutions, peoples’ trust in the institutions has plummeted.

              Now those who call themselves “liberals” are in a state of panic–despite being in control of all major institutions.  And from Corey Robin’s New Yorker book review, it seems that contemporary “liberalism” is mostly just an effort to save “institutions” from popular hatred.  Reviewing “How Democracies Die,” by the Harvard political scientists Steven Levitsky and Daniel Ziblatt, Robin says that “liberals . . . felt betrayed not by their country but by its voters,” when Trump was elected president in 2016.

In 50 years, Americans who distrust mainstream media went from the smallest segment of society to the largest.

Gallup has been asking the same questions about Americans’ trust in institutions for 50 years. Gallup’s most recent poll shows that Americans who have no trust in media (a record 39%) remain the largest segment of American society.

Trust in mainstream news was at an all-time high around 1975. But it was about that time that U.S. Senate hearings exposed the fact that most major news outlets were secretly paid by the CIA or other federal agencies. Since then–as the “news” media continued to push pro-government, anti-freedom messaging constantly–trust has plummeted.

2023 may set a record low for wildfire burn acreage

Even as government-supported “mainstream” news sources claim global warming is causing increasing wildfires, the data show the opposit.

2023 will almost certainly go down in records as one of the years with the LEAST amount of burn acreage. In California, the number of acres burned so far this year is less than one third of the five-year average, according to the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection.

And although western Canada did experience a lot of wildfire this past summer, it seems those wildfires may have been set by arsonists.

TikTok removes video discussing Climate Inspired Plans To Restrict Freedom Of Movement

Social media censorship started with claims it was aimed at “hate”; then at “misinformation”; now it is aimed at establishing “a shared set of facts and reality.”

Evita Duffy-Alfonso recently posted a TikTok video discussing the plans of global elites to restrict the mobility of common people under the guise of fighting “climate change.” See here.

But TikTok removed the video, with it’s “misinformation” characterization:

“In a global community, it is natural for people to have different opinions, but we seek to operate on a shared set of facts and reality. We do not allow inaccurate, misleading, or false content that may cause significant harm to individuals or society, regardless of intent.

Like many other tech companies, TikTok is  staffed by an unsettling number of former American intelligence officials.

Washington Post to Slash Another 240 Jobs

Pro-government extremist “news” outlets can’t get people to pay to read their government propaganda.

The Washington Post is both government supporting and government supported. Its directors have been repeatedly linked to the CIA.

The “news”paper constantly publishes the news from the perspective desired by government agencies and intelligence departments. Many suspect the paper is secretly subsidized by the government.

These job cuts will constitute almost 10% of the Post’s workforce.

Government regulations are making Americans poorer

Americans grew richer with every generation. Until the last decade.

Economist Peter St. Onge reports that half of young Americans are now living with their parents for economic reasons. Cars on the road have never ben older and now average 12 years of age.

One of the most important measures of human wellbeing is interior living space. Interior living space literally provides people with shelter, protection and defense from the elements. Houses grew in average square footage for two-and-a-half centuries But now houses are shrinking.

The American diet is going third world. High quality food, such as meat is being replaced with lower quality food, such as beans (and, now, apparently, bugs).

Even life expectancy is falling for almost a decade, breaking the 200 year trend.
