The homeless were rounded up ahead of a Bidet visit somewhere. The MSM didn't screech about that.

Remember the Desantis plane, dropping off illegals at Martha's Vineyard last year? The MSM screeched for two days, then went silent when they were all rounded up and sent to the old Otis AFB in Sandwich, MA.

Let's convert the stadium into a homeless camp and play baseball in the street like when we were kids. Funny, I don't remember having homeless camps way back when.

^ Over times past there were Hoovervilles, Okie encampments during the dustbowl and always Skid Row.
What we did not have is them in your face downtown.

San Diego PD is evicting/ticketing those who have made the streets and sidewalks in Gaslamp Quarter and East Village their own personal shitholes prior to Padres' Opening Day.
Hep A outbreak a couple years ago should've been the lesson to get the tent cities under control

I suspect that the goal is to protect the disadvantaged from Colorado Rockies baseball.

Loony liberal mayors all across the country using the same playbook:
Sweeping the problem under the rug but soon enough the dirt will be right back on the sidewalks.

The city of Denver is facing criticism from homeless advocates
Proving that they are retards. Stadium has a lot of park and ride to get fans into the seats. Hundreds if not thousands of vehicle break ins would be impossible to sweep under the rug, as you say.
Now that I mention it, perhaps they should have been left to camp. Couple goes and spends couple hundred on a day at the game, and it smells like shit. In fact, it smells so bad it is the conversation instead of the game, only to get off the bus where they parked and find their vehicle broken into, everything loose plus the stereo gone. Have that conversation.

The usual suspects in San Diego are telling us we need more housing. No, we don't. We need tent cities out in the boondocks surround by concertina wire to keep the bums from moving back to our sidewalks.

My sister lives a block and a half from Coors field. You can't go a block without seeing homeless people accosting you or tents on corners. I don't even visit anymore because of it.
I know local businesses and people have complained about the homeless but nothing is done. A thriving business district is dying because businesses and people are starting to move out. Her neighbor had someone shit on their front doorstep. Not a place I will visit and spend my money on.

If the stars aligned I'd stop by Coors Field and catch a game because I like the stadium and atmosphere. I think Jimenez was still on the pitching roster last time that happened.
From what I've heard of Denver in general, and this area specifically, not for free all-you-can-handle Rocky Dogs and Beer.
Lindsey Graham tells @JesseBWatters that he had no idea what is in the Restrict Act, Patriot Act 2.0 that gives the government broad power to spy on Americans, despite the fact that he is listed as a co-sponsor of the bill. pic.twitter.com/UEM1H0TGM5

He knows exactly what is in the bill. He is obviously lying. It is his MO, when his hand is caught in the cookie jar.

Daughter was asking me if TikTok is going to be banned and why.
As best I could with a young adult keeping her head out of the fog: its not that information is being harvested by these organizations. If that were the case, she says, then all these apps which do that would get the same treatment. Exactly. They don't care the information is loose, on the contrary they want more, they just want it funneled into their hard drives.
If it was really about punishing China, she states, we would let them continue watching our cringe TikToks until they are eating Tide Pods too and their nuclear safety technicians were dancing instead of doing their job.

That nice lady at the store isn't handing out free cheese samples for you, is she? If its free you are the products.
She's gauging response to the cheese, and whether to carry it and how much right?
Right. Imagine that on a much larger scale.
Thank you Lindsey. Thank you for making my point. Guess what news topic gets brought up at dinner tonight.
[NYPOST] The White House declined to comment Wednesday on an IRS ...the Internal Revenue Service; that office of the United States government that collects taxes and persecutes the regime's political enemies... agent’s visit to journalist Matt Taibbi’s home on the same day that he testified to a House subcommittee investigating the "weaponization" of government.
The surprise March 9 door-knock came as the "Twitter Files" collaborator described his reporting on how the government pressured social media platforms to censor online speech.
The Post asked at the first White House press briefing since the news of the visit broke Monday about whether the visit was "part of a campaign to harass or intimidate [Taibbi] related to his journalism."
White House front manJohn Kirby, coordinator for strategic communications at the National Security Council, declined to provide a substantive reply.
"I’m afraid I’m going to have to refer you to the IRS," he said succinctly.
"Federal law prohibits the IRS from commenting on individual taxpayer matters," front man Robert Marvin told The Post.
Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen, whose department includes the IRS, also was pressed for answers Wednesday by House politicians.
[NYPOST] Because politix is politix.
Mayor Eric Adams praised Assembly Speaker Carl Heastie Wednesday — despite a new Post poll showing the power broker’s opposition to expanding city charter schools and rolling back the state’s lenient bail law goes against voters in his own Bronx district.
"The speaker, I find the speaker to be extremely conscientious," Adams said when asked about the McLaughlin & Associates survey, which found that 68% of likely voters in Heastie’s district — which covers the neighborhoods of Williamsbridge, Eastchester and Wakefield — support Gov. Kathy Hochul’s budget proposal to remove the cap on charters in the city and expand them statewide.
"I think he has served his constituency well," Adams went on. "He has been serving for several years. He served when I was there. I had a great meeting when I was in Albany with him and I think he’s a great politician."
However, if you can't be a good example, then you'll just have to be a horrible warning... Hizzoner grew noticeably silent when a Post news hound followed up: "Why would he go against the will of his voters in this case? That was the question."
The poll also found that most respondents said that crime was the issue they were most concerned about, with 57% favoring Hochul’s proposal to allow judges to use greater discretion when it comes to setting bail for dangerous suspects.
Heastie or his caucus’ campaign committee have received nearly $1.5 million in donations from powerful teachers’ unions, which oppose the publicly-funded, privately-run schools that have proliferated in the five boroughs and been credited for increased test scores among minority students while operating at a fraction of the cost of public schools.
The speaker has also repeatedly claimed that crime is also up in states with no bail reform while stating his opposition to changing the controversial 2019 measure, which eliminated cash bail in all but the most serious criminal cases as a way to prevent impoverished defendants from languishing on Riker’s Island ahead of their trials.

[NYPOST] One of the reasons people are cynical about politics is because their elected representatives show more allegiance to their personal interests and lobbyists than their own constituents. Yet their constituents keep voting them in. Funny, that.
Too many politicians are like an abusive partner who swears it’ll be different this time if we just give him or her one more chance.
It’s abundantly clear what the citizens in New York state Assemblyman Carl Heastie’s district have advocated for, but Heastie’s window into the desires of the people he represents has been replaced with a mirror.
In a McLaughlin & Associates poll commissioned by The Post within Heastie’s northern Bronx district, out of the 400 likely voters surveyed last week, 62% said they support charters, and 68% indicated an interest in increasing the number of charter schools.
Many of the poll respondents also stated that crime is the top issue in their community, and 64% approve of requiring anyone committing a crime with a gun to be held without bail.

For some strange reason as soon as an elected person steps into the US capital they experience sudden brain damage.
A multi-volume chronology and reference guide set detailing three years of the Mexican Drug War between 2010 and 2012.
Rantburg.com and borderlandbeat.com correspondent and author Chris Covert presents his first non-fiction work detailing
the drug and gang related violence in Mexico.
Chris gives us Mexican press dispatches of drug and gang war violence
over three years, presented in a multi volume set intended to chronicle the death, violence and mayhem which has
dominated Mexico for six years.
Rantburg was assembled from recycled algorithms in the United States of America. No
trees were destroyed in the production of this weblog. We did hurt some, though. Sorry.
