Things Are Not Looking Good At All!

Folks, even though I have not been blogging like I used to does not mean that I am not aware of what is going on. I know only too well since I am out on the streets, daily. And I see the mess that has been deliberately let loose on humanity; those of us who are just trying to make it from one day to the next.

Stellantis announces hundreds of layoffs for white collar workers during ‘mass firing’ call

A mechanical engineer knew something was wrong when the rumor mill at work began to spin: layoffs were incoming. 

They had begun to trickle into the office a couple of weeks ago. Then, around 8 p.m. on Thursday, about 400 workers at Stellantis got an email telling them not to come into the office on Friday.

Instead, it would be a mandatory remote work day. They were also told to attend an operational meeting at a designated time. That’s when the news dropped.

“It was a mass firing of everybody that was on the call,” the employee said.

I have been telling Americans that America is not owned by Americans anymore. Guess where Stellantis is headquartered? Amsterdam. Americans have been sold out by corporations that have merged with other corporations and all of them are headquartered overseas.

What are those people going to do who just got fired from Stellantis? Some of them may eventually end up on the streets, homeless like the man in the next picture.

Again, this is going to become all too familiar. In fact, it already is. Those who have been sitting, basking in the glow of their white-collar jobs are now having the rug pulled from underneath them. There were signs of what was coming and since many of those people knew what was coming and tried to prepare for it by initiating a job search, as you can see, the job search did not go very well since many had to remain at their jobs until they got a zoom call telling them not to come back to work.

Another sad situation is what’s going down with Tyson Foods since that company has been in the news lately over firing legal American workers and hiring illegals to take their place. And even though Tyson Foods is touted as an American-owned company, the Chinese are the majority stockholders and so in essence, it is a Chinese-owned company masquerading as an American-owned corporation.

Tyson Foods Sells Majority Stake To Chinese Company – CMHI

by Vallery – SEPTEMBER 29, 2022

“The China-based Shandong Bao Shuan Group has purchased a majority stake in the American chicken company, Tyson Foods. Shandong Bao Shuan will now own 79.5 percent of Tyson Foods, while the American company will maintain a 20.5 percent stake. This is the first time that a Chinese company has acquired a major American food producer. The deal was completed on Monday, and it is valued at $8.55 billion.”

As you can see, the plot thickens!

Tyson Foods Faces Boycott After Report Claims Company Hires Migrants

Tyson Foods faces boycott calls

Tyson Foods is facing boycott calls following a report that the company planned to hire migrants to work at its factories.

Now, even though Tyson Foods retracted a statement regarding hiring illegals after having fired legal Americans, the fact remains that Tyson Foods has not been upfront about who owns the company and so it is not a stretch of the imagination to believe that Tyson Foods would not lie about whether or not it was planning to fire legal Americans and hire illegals. It has been done before. And I have covered that on this very blog. Archive to your heart’s content.

HUL Announces Mass Layoffs: Over 7,000 Jobs To Be Cut, Magnum Ice Cream Business To Get Separated – Check Details

hul announces mass layoffs: over 7,000 jobs to be cut, magnum ice cream business to get separated - check details

Are you beginning to get the picture?

Amid mass layoffs across the US, Dollar Tree announces nearly 1,000 Family Dollar store closures

Many of the stores to be closed are located in rural areas and impoverished towns and cities. The Family Dollar chain has 8,000 stores in the US and Canada and is owned by Dollar Tree, one of the largest discount chains of its kind. In many areas of the country, a Family Dollar store represents the only option for groceries and other goods, with larger supermarkets several hours’ driving away.

What is going on?

The full list of major US companies slashing staff this year, from IBM to Google and Microsoft

A slew of companies across the tech, media, finance, and retail industries made significant cuts to staff in 2023. Tech titans like IBM, Google, Microsoft, finance giants like Goldman Sachs, and manufacturers like Dow all announced layoffs.

2024 is looking grim too. And it’s only March.

Nearly 40% of business leaders surveyed by ResumeBuilder think layoffs are likely at their companies this year, and about half say their companies will implement a hiring freeze.

And yet, the Biden Administration has been secretly flying illegals into the U.S. for quite some time.

Biden DHS pressed for answers on 386,000 immigrants flown directly into US cities

EXCLUSIVE — House Republicans are pressing the Biden administration to provide information about a government phone app that allowed immigrants outside the United States to apply for permission to fly into the U.S. to be screened for admission.

In a letter sent to President Joe Biden and Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas on Friday, 18 GOP lawmakers demanded information on the “advanced travel authorizations” program that has allowed immigrants from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, and Venezuela to enter the U.S.

Has anybody figured out what the hell is going on yet? All I know is that the sheer numbers of newly homeless are skyrocketing. And laws are being passed in different states to criminalize homelessness as with the recent laws about to hit the books in Florida, whereas it is against the law for the homeless to sit and rest on sidewalks, parks and in other public spaces.

A look at how the new law banning Florida’s homeless from sleeping in public works

Florida’s homeless will be banned from sleeping on sidewalks and in parks and other public spaces under a law signed Wednesday by Gov. Ron DeSantis.

Remember these pictures?

Florida has just made that a criminal act. As if those who are inside a tent on the sidewalk can help their plight when you can see for yourself that mass homelessness is going to be the result of endless layoffs coming down the pike and so LEGAL Americans are all going to be sitting up in prisons all across America while illegals are working for peanuts at Tyson Foods, Unilever, Smithfield Meat Packing Plants, Chipotles, Taco Bells, Days Inn, Extended Stay Americas and the list is also endless.

Americans are being replaced which is why illegals coming into America were not met with masked health officials insisting on rolling up their sleeves and injecting them with Covid bioweapons as in what happened to millions of LEGAL Americans. Is this the “Great Replacement?” Are your votes even going to matter come November? Will you even have a home come November since a pink slip is about to meet you via a zoom call from your “former” employer? The writing has been on the wall for quite some time now and even though there has only been about four years to prepare for this. Is anyone ever really ready for the bottom to completely fall out?

Laws are soon coming to a city, hamlet, burg, village, township near you that will make it a criminal offense to prop a tent up when you have been fired from your job and evicted from your home. And when that happens, there goes your health because take it from me, I am still trying to recover lost sleep from when I was homeless for eight months last year. I do not think that I shall ever be the same, in fact, I am certain of it and yet despite all hell, I am out on the streets every single day, helping the homeless when and where I can. The next picture is what today is looking like and I was out there helping the homeless.

It is much worse now and will continue snowing at least until Tuesday morning. And if I can dig myself out, I will be out in search of those who need rescuing from homelessness and the snow tomorrow. I hope that those of you who read this will never need help from those of us who are trying to help the homelessness. May you never experience homelessness.

Tonight, it will not be a fit night out for man nor beast, but man will surely be outside in the midst of a deep and unrelenting snowstorm. Have mercy!

A Silent, Cold Embrace!

Fluffy white and soft,
it blankets me this night.

Hidden by powdery flakes,
are stiffening limbs of ice.

Gently caressing my face,
and melting in my mouth,
a silent, cold embrace,
it hides the ugly truth,
that I lie on concrete, hard.

No dreams I’ll ever know,
with open, staring eyes,
buried beneath the snow.

I pray none of you who read this will ever experience homelessness. I pray you don’t!

  1. Shelby I’m glad to see the empire going down. Part of me says the sooner the better just so long as we work our butts off to support the vulnerable. Here in New Plymouth, we have started a free clinic for people who can’t access health care. It’s summer here so we distribute surplus garden fruits and veggies at the end of the week.

    1. Good on you guys for stepping in and getting it done! Those of us who are determined to help as many homeless people as possible, are not going to stop until we realize our dream of forming a REAL coalition that will be about the business of ending homelessness and not just provide lip service like these so-called, “nonprofits” are doing. We are getting a start, slowly, but surely since we are financing it out of our own pockets for now. We meet at the local central library where we get together and come up with ways to solve the problem of housing desperate people. Grassroots is the future, Dr. Bramhall, as you already know. And those of us who are getting started are aware that we should have been doing for ourselves all along. But we are there now, and we shall continue to strive to uplift our brothers and sisters out of homelessness.

      Thank you for your comment, Dr. Bramhall.

  2. I applaud both Shelby and Dr. B for efforts to assist the vulnerable, in ways
    unique to your situations. I’m following other paths, to provide back up to what I’m learning from you. For instance, I’ve been online researching ivermectin, which in the US is manufactutlred by Merck, so I’ve been researching Merck, too. This led me to trace the history of the FDA, way back to the Pure Food and Drugs Act in 1906, in Teddy Roosevelt’s second term. The FDA was originally part of the USDA, started by Abraham Lincoln. The FDA was prompted by Upton Sinclair’s book, “The Jungle”, about the meat packing industry in Chicago. Shelby, I’m also am looking into Walmart and Tyson Foods, which I believe began in Arkansas, home of ex US prez Bill Clinton. Small world.

    1. Thank you, Katharine, for recognizing the endeavors of Dr. Bramhall and myself. We may all live in different parts of the world, and this country, but we do what we can where we are. I am just sorry that I did not get really involved in grassroots efforts to help our brothers and sisters until it was, basically, forced on us since the government is hellbent on fucking us all up and so it is up to us to come up with solutions. We are more community-minded and community connected since most of us have experienced homelessness who are part of this new coalition that we are founding. And the rest are advocates who have always wanted to do more, but just did what they could as in marching to showcase that homelessness is getting worse. As we get more up and coming, I will post on our accomplishments. But for now, we are doing outreach and hosting meetings and getting the word out.

      Again, thank you Katharine, your wonderful comment is greatly appreciated.
