A Secret Mortgage Blacklist Is Leaving Homeowners Stuck With Unsellable Condos

Condominium owners across the country are facing a paralyzing problem: They can’t sell their properties because of a fast-growing and mostly secret mortgage blacklist.

Real-estate agent Paul Gangi was days away from closing a sale of his listing in Shadow Ridge, a 440-unit townhouse and condo complex in Ventura County, Calif., in December. That is when his phone rang. 

“I got a panicked call from the lender saying, ‘Sorry, we’ve just found out Shadow Ridge has been blacklisted,’” he said. The buyer tried several other options for getting a loan, without success, and the sale collapsed.

“Self defense is a God given right! The End”

California Bill To Restrict Self Defense Withdrawn By Sponsor

A proposed law in California intended to limit the conditions under which lethal force could be used in self-defense has been withdrawn by its sponsor. Assemblymember Rich Chavez Zbur (D-Hollywood) announced on Wednesday that Assembly Bill 1333 was pulled due what he claims was “misleading information” causing widespread confusion and fear among the public.

AB 1333 aimed to clarify scenarios where the use of lethal force in self-defense would be considered unjustified, particularly emphasizing situations where excessive force was employed beyond what was reasonably necessary.

The bill quickly became controversial, attracting fierce opposition from conservative critics who portrayed it as another lenient, crime-friendly initiative by California Democrats. Riverside County Sheriff Chad Bianco, who is also running for governor, publicly opposed the bill, asserting that it would effectively criminalize self-defense actions against offenders.

“So you think gold is expensive at $3,000?”

GOLD – Is $3,000/Oz in 2025 Cheaper than $35/Oz in 1971?

Gold prices have nearly doubled in the last 18 months from the lows of $1575/oz
in September 2022. Despite the heady returns in a safe-haven asset, we are still
in the early days of a super cycle that will last a decade or longer. As I explain in
this article, gold prices are headed for levels most analysts cannot conceive of
today.
What does “Cheaper than in 1971?” imply? During the decade starting 1971,
Gold prices rose nearly 25 times to top at $850/oz by 1980. That is a 25-fold
return in 10 years; a similar performance would mean a $75,000/oz price by 2035.
What is the probability of that happening in the decade ahead? As I explain in this
article, it’s a probable event but not a certainty. At least, not yet. What is almost
certain is the target of $24,000/oz, as explained in the book “RIP USD: 1971-202X
…and the Way Forward”. Undeniably, even the much lower target of $24,000/oz
would still be a spectacular bull market in Gold.

“Silver will be gold on steroids!”

It’s Go-Time For Silver

Gold has been soaring all year, while silver has spent the past nine months languishing, leaving long-suffering investors wondering: Will silver always play second fiddle to gold, or is it finally ready to shine? Like many, I’ve been frustrated by silver’s lackluster performance, but in this report, I’ll highlight a growing number of reasons to believe its rough patch may soon be over. Silver may finally step out of gold’s shadow and embark on a sustained bull market of its own.

The first key sign that silver is ready to surge is its decisive move above the $32 to $33 resistance zone, which has acted as a stubborn ceiling for much of the past year. This breakout is an encouraging signal, but the next crucial confirmation will be a strong, high-volume close above the $34 to $35 resistance zone—the same level that halted the late-October rally in its tracks. Once silver clears both barriers, the path should be wide open for the powerful bull market I’ve anticipated since April 2024. However, for this breakout to remain valid, silver must close and hold above both resistance zones; otherwise, all bets are off.

Ravenous Wolves in Montana and Pennsylvania Have Just Joined Texas in Sponsoring Bills That Call for a ‘Con-Con’ That Could Tear Apart the U.S. Constitution

Just this past Wednesday I wrote about Rep. Jody Arrington (R-TX. 19th District) had introduced H.Con.Res.15 – Calling an Article V Convention for proposing a Fiscal Responsibility Amendment to the United States Constitution and stipulating ratification by a vote of We the People, and for other purposes.

The danger of this is not that we have more fiscal responsibility mandated for our government, but that the sponsors of this bill want to use an Article V Constitutional Convention to accomplish it. This is not a ‘political’ writing; I am not telling you whom to vote for and am not advocating for one party or the other. I am writing this article today to point out the existential threat to every citizen of the United States that the potential convening of an Article V Constitutional Convention poses because the existence of our very Constitution is at stake.

RFK Jr. Warns Against Vaccinating Chickens for Bird Flu

U.S. Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. advised against providing vaccines to poultry amid a bird flu outbreak that has caused a steep increase in egg prices in recent months.

In an interview with Fox News on March 11, Kennedy said his primary concern with providing shots to egg-laying chickens is that the vaccine doesn’t provide complete protection against avian influenza.

“All of my agencies advise against vaccination of birds because if you vaccinate with a leaky vaccine—in other words, a vaccine that does not provide sterilizing immunity, that does not absolutely protect against the disease—you turn those flocks into mutation factories,” he said in the interview.

Gold Is On A Tear, But Silver Just Broke Out Along With This…

I have been predicting gold $3000–$3300 and silver $40–$45 is next.After that, gold $5000 and silver $100 is coming.   

Many have missed the big move latest 14 months so far, as usual. And especially the up-move since December lows.

And always, always, remember that most have to be at the wrong end of sentiment at major turns and levels. Always. Including all analysts, “experts” and services.

Plus, one cannot play a resumed bull very well with a bearish mindset, or lack of the right tools or experience, or lack of the right guidance. That’s why most missed the lows, many called a top way too soon, many called for ridiculous low numbers, plus bailed to “get in lower”.

Rep. James Comer and FBI to Bring CRIMINAL CHARGES Against ActBlue Operatives in Largest Money Laundering Scheme in U.S. History

The hammer is about to drop on Act Blue, the Democrats’ golden goose of fundraising, as House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer (R-KY) teams up with the FBI to expose what could be the biggest money-laundering scandal in American political history.

In an explosive interview with Benny Johnson, Comer laid out a damning case against the far-left fundraising juggernaut, accusing it of funneling billions in suspicious cash—potentially from foreign adversaries—into Democrat coffers under the guise of “grassroots” donations.

U.S. National Debt by Year

National debt refers to the outstanding financial obligations of a country. The national debt of the United States is what the federal government owes to its creditors. 

The U.S. has always carried national debt and the majority of presidents have added to it. However, total national debt has been expanding rapidly since 2008 due to a combination of increased government spending and failure to raise taxes.

Study: Concealed Carriers Do A Better Job Of Stopping Active Shooters Than Police

You’d never know it from watching television, but civilians stop more active shooters than police and do so with fewer mistakes, according to new research from the Crime Prevention Research Center, where I serve as president. In non-gun-free zones, where civilians are legally able to carry guns, concealed carry permit holders stopped 51.5 percent of active shootings, compared to 44.6 percent stopped by police, CPRC found in a deep dive into active shooter scenarios between 2014 and 2023.

Not only do permit holders succeed in stopping active shooters at a higher rate, but law enforcement officers face significantly greater risks when intervening. Our research found police were nearly six times more likely to be killed and 17 percent more likely to be wounded than armed civilians.

Trump, the ‘Crypto President’, is Serving Up a National Deception with the Proposal of a Bitcoin Strategic Reserve

I like President Trump for all he is doing to right a lot of wrongs in the United States. But regarding him wearing the self-proclaimed mantle of the ‘Crypto President’, he is serving up an unparalleled deception of financial sovereignty with this idea of a national Bitcoin (or Crypto) Reserve for the United States.

…’A U.S. Crypto Reserve will elevate this critical industry after years of corrupt attacks by the Biden Administration, which is why my Executive Order on Digital Assets directed the Presidential Working Group to move forward on a Crypto Strategic Reserve that includes XRP, SOL, and ADA. I will make sure the U.S. is the Crypto Capital of the World. We are MAKING AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!’…(President Donald Trump via TruthSocial)

The President went on to say: …’And, obviously, BTC and ETH, as other valuable Cryptocurrencies, will be the heart of the Reserve. I also love Bitcoin and Ethereum!’…

A Proposed Balanced Budget Amendment Carries With it the Possibility to Erase the Constitution of the United States asWe Know It

By nature I am not a political person. But I most certainly believe that the Constitution of the United States of America is the most important document in the history of the world that guarantees the rights of American citizens.

So it was with shock when I read that Rep. Jody Arrington (R-TX. 19th District) had introduced H.Con.Res.15 – Calling an Article V Convention for proposing a Fiscal Responsibility Amendment to the United States Constitution and stipulating ratification by a vote of We the People, and for other purposes.

As I understand it, the stated purpose of this proposed bill is a form of a ‘balanced budget amendment’. That sounds great on the surface. The problem is if you look just under the surface you may see the monstrosity for what it really is.
