New York City woman was just arrested for one jaw-dropping reason

0

Every day offers new reasons to never move to a blue city or state or to get out if you’re already in one.

That’s because they aren’t safe places for your family, your money, or your sanity.

Now a New York City woman was just arrested for one jaw-dropping reason.

Adele Andaloro is the proud owner of a house worth one million dollars in Flushing, Queens.

Andalaro inherited the house from her parents.

She was in the process of selling the property when a group of three people simply decided that they were going to move in last month.

A group of randos decided they liked the place so much they’d simply move in

She confronted the three, then changed the locks, hoping that after they left the house they wouldn’t be able to get back inside.

But instead, two men who claimed to be tenants called the police on her, claiming that Andaloro had illegally evicted them.

When police showed up, they asked the men to prove their resident status.

While Andalaro was able to produce the deed to the house, the men had no documents to back up their claims.

In New York, it is against the law for a landlord to turn off utilities, change locks or remove belongings of someone claiming to be a tenant.

Squatters rights in New York trump those of rightful owners

Incredibly, the law also extends these same rights to those who have been squatters for at least 30 days.

Unfortunately, because of backlogs, eviction cases in New York City take an average of 20 months to be resolved.

Thus, the people staying there would have rights to the property for an extended period of time.

Andaloro was told by the police that the issue had become a landlord-tenant dispute and that could only be settled in housing court.

Police then arrested her for her illegal eviction.

According to ABC-7, some city residents (who may or may not be total deadbeats) are aware of this law and know that if they are approached by police over a squatter dispute, it is advantageous for them to claim that they have been on the property for 30 days.

But there may yet be a happy ending to this story.

Since it made national news, there have been some new developments.

The Daily Mail reported that a pair of what that outlet called “vigilantes” had come to Andalaro’s aid.

The two showed up at the home to confront the squatters and tried to convince them to leave the property.

One of the men, dressed in a pro-Trump t-shirt, told that outlet, “We are looking to get this guy out. I am here to talk to him. I want to see why he is here.”

While the squatters did not leave at once when the two men appeared on the doorstep demanding answers, two of the alleged illegal tenants took off the following day.

The national (and even international) exposure may have spooked them.

The squatters were seen quickly getting into a car while shielding their faces from cameras and refusing to answer any questions.

It’s not yet known if they’ll be back, but their hasty departure is certainly a promising sign.

In the end, this is just one more example of how in deep blue New York, the real criminals are often given preferential treatment over those simply going about their business.

Elon Musk just had one “green” disaster dropped in his lap

0

Elon Musk has been attacked endlessly by the corporate-controlled press.

That’s on top of the everyday challenges of running his businesses.

And Musk just had one “green” disaster dropped in his lap.

While the international Left are pushing for electric vehicles to take over the entire auto industry, they are ignoring serious problems.

One problem with EVs is that the lithium-ion batteries can overheat and lead to spontaneous fires.

Massive fire

And that’s precisely what happened to a Tesla that caught fire and led to a three-hour high closure of Route 255 in Bethalto, Illinois.

The Tesla inferno required multiple fire departments and a Hazmat Team from Madison County.

The EV hit a “thermal runaway,” which is an insider term explaining when a battery creates self-generating heat that leads to a burnout.

Bidenmobile battery fires burn significantly hotter than a standard internal combustion engine fire; EVs can burn as much as 1,000 times hotter.

Fire departments have to use significantly more water to extinguish an EV fire.

Also, the batteries can even reignite minutes—or even hours—after being extinguished.

The batteries can also release toxic fumes, which is a detail that “green” activists often leave out when discussing EVs.

Lithium-ion batteries are not recyclable and they are not easily disposed of.

They also require a larger carbon footprint in order to mine for the rare-earth metals used to build them.

And a new study from Emission Analytics showed that EVs actually release more particulates from rubber tires into the environment because the cars tend to be heavier.

All of these issues are largely ignored by the radical environmentalists.

The economics of EVs

And on the market side of the equation, the demand for Bidenmobiles is not where left-wing leaders want it.

When asked why EV sales were down, Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm admitted during an interview, “I think it’s several things. One is the price of EVs has been higher. Now, Kelley Blue Book has just assessed that, last year alone, the price of EVs dropped 23%, so they’re now relatively on par with new internal combustion engines. So that price issue is continuing to move in the direction of the consumer. It’s not quite there yet. The tax incentives and the state tax incentives combined make that even more irresistible. But it’s a confusing tax incentive market. The dealers have to take on a lot of educating of folks to be able to apply those tax incentives at the dealership. People aren’t aware that, if you lease a vehicle, the more restrictive tax incentives don’t apply, and so, you can really take advantage of that. And, of course, it’s an infrastructure issue, people do have range anxiety. It’s why we have been so focused on increasing the number of charging stations across the country. We expect that we’ll get to 500,000 charging stations across the country by 2026.”

Despite government subsidies and heavy propaganda, the EV market is nowhere close to meeting the Left’s wild projections of no gas-powered cars on the road in short order.

DC Attorney General just made the decision on whether to charge Gold Star dad for SOTU outburst

DC Attorney General decided the fate of Gold Star dad from the State of the Union

Leftists generally take a dim view of dissent in any form.

So there has been an open question as to what would happen to someone who dared to speak up.

Now the DC Attorney General just decided the fate of a Gold Star dad for his State of the Union outburst.

Steve Nikoui is the father of U.S. Marine Kareem Nikoui.

Kareem Nikoui was killed during Joe Biden’s bungled withdrawal from Afghanistan in 2021.

During Biden’s State of the Union address, Nikoui shouted “Remember Abbey Gate! United States Marines!” and “Abbey Gate!” from the balcony of the House chamber.

For that outburst, Nikoui was arrested and charged with disrupting Congress.

Nikoui has been a harsh critic of the Biden administration since his son’s death.

The entire tragedy and the mishandling of the aftermath has been an embarrassment for Joe Biden.

Ever since the incident claimed the lives of thirteen Americans, Biden’s approval rating became net-negative and never recovered.

Nikoui has been joined by other Gold Star families in his frustration over Joe Biden’s bungled response to the tragedy.

Gold Star mother, Christy Shamblin, went on CNN and spoke of how the Biden White House wouldn’t return her phone calls.

Biden effectively ghosted a Gold Star mother

When asked if she had spoken to Biden, Shamblin said, “No. He’s not reached out to our family. We’ve actually reached out to the White House and have never heard back. We asked to meet with them…We’ve not received a response. It’s been months.”

Clearly, the man who was billed as “empathetic” during the 2020 presidential campaign by corporate media has failed on that score just as much as he has in virtually every other aspect of his presidency.

But there is now some good news.

Brian Schwalb, the Democrat Attorney General of the District of Columbia, has decided to drop the misdemeanor charge against Nikoui.

Rep. Darrel Issa (R-CA) confirmed to The National Desk that the charges filed against Nikoui were dropped.

Issa: Biden alone is responsible for the loss of 13 U.S. servicemembers

In a statement, Issa said, “My friend and California Gold Star father Steve Nikoui’s direct call for accountability reminded the entire nation what the President wants everyone to forget — 13 U.S. servicemembers were lost at the Abbey Gate bombing in Afghanistan in the chaotic and disastrous withdrawal for which Biden alone is responsible. Steve did nothing wrong, he should not have been charged with a crime, and the charges were justifiably dropped. But this isn’t over. I stand with these Gold Star families, I share their anger and frustration, and I will continue the work toward the accountability they deserve.”

Schwalb’s office declined to comment on the charge.

Issa said in a letter to Capitol Police that Nikoui’s outbursts were in response to the “lack of answers and accountability from the Biden Administration on the events and failures that led to the disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan which claimed the lives of 13 American servicemembers.”

In the end, the District Attorney made the right call, but it’s an open question how much the prospect of further embarrassment to the Biden Administration may have nudged him in the right direction.

Joe Biden’s border crisis could ignite a shocking boycott of this massive food industry company

0

Joe Biden’s immigration policies have been a disaster.

And he refuses to do anything about it.

Now Biden’s border crisis could lead to one shocking boycott.

Joe Biden has gone out of his way to increase the flow of illegal aliens into the country.

For no good reason, he reversed Donald Trump’s border policies that were working.

Now the illegal immigration crisis has spiraled out of control, and the establishment of both parties is perfectly fine with it.

Cheap labor

Establishment Republicans are okay with the broken immigration system because big business likes cheap illegal immigrant labor.

That’s why Tyson Foods is announcing mass layoffs in favor of so-called asylum seekers in New York state.

The company is shutting down plants in Iowa, Virginia, Arkansas, Indiana, and Missouri in favor of a facility in New York that will pay illegal aliens $16.50 per hour and supply them with immigration lawyers.

America First Legal, an organization started by former Trump advisor Stephen Miller, announced on Twitter, “It is ILLEGAL under federal law to discriminate against American citizens based on their citizenship in favor of non-citizens of any kind when it comes to employment.”

Boycott

In light of the move by Tyson Foods, people who are sick and tired of illegal immigration are calling for a boycott.

Conservatives successfully boycotted Bud Light and Target for “woke” insanity, but immigration policy is difficult to change because so many people in power want the problem unsolved.

The Daily Mail reported that the “boycott raises tough questions for Tyson’s $13 million-a-year CEO Donnie King, who has led the firm since 2021, during which time it has funded the campaign chests of President Joe Biden, Nikki Haley and others, according to Open Secrets.”

Tyson Foods also reportedly invests in temporary housing, childcare, English classes, and paid time off for court appearances for illegal aliens.

The backlash to the migrant crisis is growing as Americans witness the red carpet being rolled out for new arrivals while citizens are struggling.

Democrats ignored the problem until it came to their cities.

The Daily Mail added that “[d]ata from US Bureau of Labor Statistics show that between July and August 2023, there was a staggering decrease of 1.2 million native-born people in the workforce. In stark contrast, some 688,000 jobs were secured by foreign-born workers, underlining the difference in President Joe Biden’s pro-migration policies versus Donald Trump’s tough border stance.”

The intent of the establishment could not be any clearer.

Californians and Christians alike are horrified after this scandalous hit job goes viral

0

This viral church scandal in California left everyone with their jaws wide open

Nothing is worse than when your friend, daughter, or sibling starts dating a total scumbag and refuses to see anything wrong with the person.

No matter how hard you try, they will not see how lame the person is until they abuse, take advantage of, or hurt the person you care for.

And everyone was stunned after this scandalous hit job in California went viral.

California pastor could pay the price after taking things to a whole new level

Every father fears his daughter coming home with some punk kid who does not treat her with respect or dignity.

However, as any father knows, convincing his daughter not to date somebody does not always work out very well.

A California pastor named Samuel Pasillas found himself in this situation when his daughter started dating a man he did not approve of.

But Pasillas did not exactly handle this tricky situation with grace.

According to Fox News, “Riverside authorities say Samuel Pasillas, 47, offered nearly $40,000 to Juan Manuel Cebreros, 55, and other men to kill his daughter’s boyfriend in October 2023.”

The report added, “California police last week arrested and charged a Victorville pastor, alleging that he contacted hitmen in a plot to kill his daughter’s boyfriend.”

On Tuesday, the Riverside Police Department issued a press release saying, “During their investigation, detectives uncovered evidence the father met with the men he hired and provided them information about the victim, including his location, the evening of the shooting.”

The press release added, “Detectives also determined these men were paid almost $40,000 by the father and had conducted surveillance on the victim in the weeks leading up to when they shot him.”

As it stands, Samual Pasillas faces charges of solicitation for murder, conspiracy to commit murder, attempted murder, and assault with a deadly weapon.

His bond was set at a whopping $1 million, and he faces a maximum penalty of life in prison for these alleged crimes.

These actions have since sent shockwaves across the Riverside community, especially amongst those who attend Samual Pasillas’ church.

Needless to say, Samual Pasillas did a poor job of practicing what he preached, so to speak.

Murder has become a part of everyday life in many American communities

Violent crime has exploded in California in recent years, especially following the death of George Floyd in 2020.

In the case of Samual Pasilla, it appears as if he had no hard time finding cold-blooded killers who would do his bidding and risk life prison sentences for just $40,000.

Pasilla shows that crime has left an indelible mark on many American communities, with even preachers even going as far as to have people they do not like assassinated.

Eric Adams spit out his coffee after catching wind of these damning allegations

0

New York Politics has always had a bad reputation for attracting corrupt scumbags.

If these New York politicians were not already scumbags, union officials, mafia bosses, and other influences turned them into one.

And Mayor Eric Adams spit out his coffee after catching wind of these damning allegations.

These allegations could derail Eric Adams and his political ambitions

When Eric Adams ran for mayor in 2021, he branded himself as a tough-on-crime candidate, having served as a captain in the New York Police Department.

However, since taking office in 2022, New York City has failed to get a hold of violent crime, causing thousands of New Yorkers to flee from the Big Apple.

To make matters worse for Eric Adams, New York City has seen a massive influx of illegal aliens, some of whom have taken up residence on New York’s sidewalks.

Eric Adams sent the radical left into a frenzy after he told New Yorkers that the illegal immigration crisis could destroy New York City.

Needless to say, Eric Adam’s tenure has not been a cakewalk.

However, details recently emerged of a lawsuit that accuses Eric Adams of sexual misconduct.

The New York Post reported, “A former police colleague of New York City Mayor Eric Adams claims in a bombshell new lawsuit alleging sexual assault that he exposed himself to her and demanded she perform oral sex on him in exchange for help with a job issue more than three decades ago.”

Furthermore, “The accuser, Lorna Beach-Mathura, first came forward in November by filing a notice of claim saying she planned to sue Adams for sexual assault. The brief November filing didn’t include specifics about the accusation.”

More specifically, Beach-Mathura recounts an encounter with Eric Adams, which allegedly occurred in 1993, where Adams took her to a vacant parking lot and insisted that she participate in his sexualized quid pro quo, despite her rejecting his advances.

These accusations of Eric Adams demanding sexual favors in exchange for jobs have sent the Mayor’s office into a frenzy.

Sylvia Hinds-Radix, New York City’s Government’s Corporation Counsel, has since responded to the allegations, stating, “While we review the complaint, the mayor fully denies these outrageous allegations and the events described here; we expect full vindication in court.”

Eric Adam’s political future could be stifled as these shocking allegations gain steam

Like every politician, many believe that Eric Adams has bigger aspirations than just serving one term as Mayor of New York City.

Some believe that he is looking at either staying in office for some time or running for a bigger role, perhaps as Governor of New York State.

Regardless, these allegations against Eric Adams could completely derail his political future.

In addition to these allegations, Eric Adams has an immigration crisis, drug crisis, and crime crisis, among others, to sort out.

Washington State judge just issued an infuriating ruling against a landlord that will stun you

0

There are many negative aspects to living in a blue state these days, from safety concerns to high taxes and much more.

One of the most jarring things is knowing those in power tend to favor criminals over the law-abiding.

Now a Washington State judge just issued an infuriating ruling against a landlord.

Because of policies that were enacted by Democrats during the COVID-era, some Washington State landlords are out tens of thousands of dollars in back rent and have no way to recoup their losses.

One of these landlords is Jaskaran Singh.

Singh owns a single-family home that he decided to put up for rent in the ritzy neighborhood of Woodridge, in Bellevue, Washington.

During the summer of 2022, Singh rented the house to a man called Sang Kim and his family.

It was a decision he would come to regret.

During an interview on the Ari Hoffman Show on Talk Radio 570 KVI, Singh says he received the first and last month’s rent at the time Sang Kim moved into the house.

When the tenant won’t pay, it doesn’t pay to be a landlord

But that was the last of the money he would receive.

Sang Kim never paid any additional rent and according to Singh, his deadbeat tenant would nonetheless come into the possession of two new cars.

After this went on for several months, Singh’s lawyer Stephen Freeborn filed the necessary paperwork to evict Sang Kim.

A completely broken system

At this point, the King County Bar Association’s Housing Justice Project effectively bailed Kim out, giving him free legal help and even paying back plus a three-month advance on future rent so Kim and his family had time to move out.

But he never left, even though no rent was paid since May and the lease expired.

Singh is frustrated beyond belief because he is out $80,000 from mortgage and utilities on the property plus legal fees.

He said during the interview with the radio station, “I lost my job in the summer. Juggling my own mortgage and paying double mortgage for the tenant’s house has become a considerable burden. I work two jobs to support my family and the tenant’s family.”

He added, “While my tenant enjoys a relaxed lifestyle, buys new cars, and celebrates [with] barbecues, I continue to struggle to pay my bills and double mortgages. Our tax dollars not only provide free legal support to my tenant but also pay his rent while he does little to contribute and seemingly manipulates the system.”

It turns out that for this deadbeat tenant, it’s just the same old Song and dance.

He has a history of pulling similar stunts with other landlords, refusing to leave, and saddling them with exorbitant costs.

Singh organized a protest outside his property where the squatter now resides.

Over 200 people showed up to support him.

But, in a twist, Kim anticipated the well-advertised protest and secured a restraining order against Singh.

The order was signed Friday by Judge Matthew A. Skau from the King County District Court’s East Division.

Singh told journalist Jonathan Choe, “There is no law protecting the landlord. Justice delayed is justice denied.”

Singh’s situation isn’t unique.

That’s because King County courts are behind on over 600 eviction cases, many because of ordinances that deferred rent and prohibited evictions for tenants during the pandemic.

Singh relayed to Choe that he would try to organize more protests at the property until Kim leaves.

He also says that he has lost faith in the legal system and advises against anyone becoming a landlord in Washington State.

Sadly, it’s understandable why he has come to that conclusion.

Biden’s border crisis deals Democrat stronghold a rude awakening that has conservatives saying, “told you”

0

Joe Biden has allowed illegal immigration to spiral out of control.

Now blue cities are feeling the pressure.

And one Democrat stronghold just got a rude awakening because of Biden’s border crisis.

Democrats in deep-blue jurisdictions smugly declared themselves “sanctuary cities,” but facts on the ground have forced them to reassess.

It was easy to claim sanctuary status when the illegal immigration crisis was limited to red states on the border.

But now that Democrats are being affected, their tune has changed.

And one city at its wit’s end is Chicago.

Far-left Mayor Brandon Johnson has allowed his cities and shelters to be overrun by illegal aliens, and now they are complaining about the free food they are receiving.

Horrible food

Johnson wanted the food to be “culturally relevant,” but migrants at the facilities have called the food “horrible.”

The migrants dislike the food so much that many of them are paying for food out of their own pockets.

One migrant woman told WGN Investigates that the food was “horrible, horrible. Sometimes they give the kids spicy food. Why do they think that’s okay for kids? . . . I go to bed some nights without food. Really, the food is terrible.”

Taxpayer dollars are being shoveled to pay for food for illegal aliens, and they don’t even want it.

Money down the drain

WGN Investigates journalist Lourdes Duarte reported, “New arrivals are choosing to use their own money to pay for food even as the city signs multimillion-dollar contracts with two different businesses to feed them…Seventy-Seven Communities Meal Service has already been paid $3.7 million to feed migrants, but could stand to make as much as $45 million. A second company, 14 Parish, has received $3.8 million according to city records with the potential to make more than $57 million.”

Untold millions of dollars are being spent on food alone.

That does not even cover all of the other services, and it does not take into account how that money could have been used otherwise to benefit residents.

In response to the feedback, Chicago officials released in a statement, “The City seeks to work with our food service provider partners to continually improve food options for residents based on the feedback we receive.”

The lack of gratitude from the illegal aliens is almost as infuriating as the bad policies by Democrat leaders that are leading to a waste of millions of taxpayer dollars.

The entire enterprise is absurd, but Democrats refuse to do anything about it.

Chicago just proved by this latest action they weren’t serious about the “sanctuary city” thing

0

When blue city leftists proclaimed their “compassion” for the downtrodden, they never believed they would be held to their words.

They certainly never anticipated what has happened over the past few years.

Now Chicago just proved by their latest action that they weren’t serious about the “sanctuary city” thing.

Leftist proponents of open borders and mass amnesty are in a bind.

That’s because for decades, as they chastised other Americans who had the temerity to discuss the problems that such policies would inevitably bring, they never faced any real possibility of having to deal with their preferred policies enacted at the federal level.

That was, of course, until Joe Biden became president.

Since January 2021, over 8 million illegal immigrants have crossed into the United States.

Those newly arrived people have traveled by the tens of thousands to America’s Democrat-run “sanctuary cities” – where local politicians have for decades insisted that they would be welcomed with open arms.

But actions speak louder than words.

Now there is word that Chicago officials are evicting thousands of illegals from city and state shelters.

City officials are planning to evict 2,026 people from their current shelters by the end of April. 

Chicago to “newcomers”: Pack your bags

The first 244 immigrants will be evicted by the end of the month and the remaining 1,782 will leave throughout the month of April.

A press release from the office of Mayor Brandon Johnson (D) said, “By encouraging resettlement while also providing case-specific extensions with a focus on health and safety, we are advancing a pathway to stability and self-sufficiency. While we know Chicago’s limited resources cannot meet the full scale of need across the New Arrivals Mission. We are constantly evaluating options that will lead to better care for all Chicagoans.”

Public health concerns

Part of the reason why the illegal immigrants, euphemistically labeled by Johnson (and Democrats at the national level including Joe Biden) as newcomers, are getting the boot is because of an increasing public health risk.

The press release added, “The Chicago Department of Public Health (CDPH) confirmed 12 measles cases (2 community cases and 10 in shelters) and continues to coordinate a comprehensive, city-wide response to the first measles cases in Chicago in five years. A team from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) arrived in Chicago Tuesday to support the efforts to mitigate transmission of the highly infectious virus. To ensure the safety of shelter residents and all Chicagoans, two additional policies were added, and one existing policy was clarified in the existing Limited Stay Extension Policy.”

The mass migration of people from countries prone to infections that had previously largely been eradicated in the United States has stretched social services even further in already stressed Chicago.

It’s not compassionate when politicians invite the entire world in, only to endanger the safety of current residents and then, after putting residents at risk, send the “newcomers” packing.

In the end, this is just more proof of the failure of left-wing immigration and border policy.

Unfortunately for those who champion these failed policies, polling indicates that voters are paying attention and strongly disapprove.

Terrible policies have cops scratching their heads after being forced to stop doing this one thing

0

Residents in Democrat-run cities are feeling the heat.

They are suffering at the hands of mismanagement.

And cops were forced to stop doing one thing because of terrible policies.

In 2020, Democrats and their media allies wanted to “defund the police.”

The movement picked up major steam until Democrats realized it was a bad idea that did not have support outside of the activist class.

But the damage had already been done.

Demoralized police force

The reaction by the Left to the George Floyd riots led to a spate of early retirements and resignations from police officers.

They figured it was not worth being labeled a racist murderer if an arrest went sideways.

Now cities are feeling the crunch of fewer police officers.

In Pittsburgh, law enforcement officials recently announced that they were suspending services outside of emergency calls.

Local news chief investigator for Channel 11 News Rick Earle explained, “Residents of the city will see a major change in the way police respond. They will no longer respond to calls that aren’t considered ‘in-progress emergency.’ That means calls like criminal mischief, theft, harassment and most burglary alarms will all be handled by an enhanced telephone reporting unit. That means residents will file a police report over the phone. Officers will not respond unless it’s an emergency. Also, between the hours of 3 a.m. and 7 a.m., there will be no officers at any of the six stations throughout the city. Call boxes that link directly to 911 have been installed for people to use in case of an emergency. And during the overnight shift, there will be as few as 20 officers to cover the entire city. The chief said today the data supports that.”

That means Pittsburgh residents are effectively on their own unless their lives are in imminent danger.

Officer shortfall

When asked if the city had enough cops to patrol the streets, Chief Larry Scirotto said, “Yes, it’s enough to cover the entire city in those hours when we have 8% of the time people are calling…I’m confident in the decisions that we make, that it impacts this bureau and the city in a much better way than we have in the past.”

At the end of his news report, Earle added, “Now, the chief also acknowledging today that some of these changes are due to staffing shortages. He’s down to 740 officers, well below the 850 they would like to have.”

The actions of activists and journalists have consequences.

The “defund the police” movement made American citizens less safe.
