The California Senate passed a contentious bill to allow for undocumented immigrants to use the state’s zero-down, zero-interest home “loans” program despite national backlash following coverage of the bill’s looming passage.
With 23 votes for and 11 votes against — including all nine Republicans and Democratic State Sens. Catherine Blakespear, D-Encinitas, and Dave Min, D-Irvine — the bill narrowly passed the 21 vote majority threshold in the Senate.
California’s Dream for All Shared Appreciation Loans program allows applicants to secure “loans” of up to $150,000 or 20% of the home’s purchase price — or, about what a typical down payment is — with zero down payment on this state “loan,” and no payments.
Republicans are demanding answers after Massachusetts’ Democrat leadership has been caught “secretly” spending almost $1 billion in taxpayer money on caring for illegal aliens.
The state’s Republican Party, MassGOP, has submitted a formal request to the Massachusetts government for information on the alleged “$1 billion in secret migrant crisis spending.”
It comes as the Bay State continues to grapple with the flood of illegal aliens caused by the Biden-Harris administration’s border crisis.
In a press release from MassGOP, the group demanded that Democrat Gov. Maura Healey’s administration provide a detailed breakdown of how must the state’s residents are paying to care for illegal aliens.
In a statement, MassGOP Chair Amy Carnevale said:
“The Healey-Driscoll Administration has shrouded nearly $1 billion spent in secrecy, leaving Massachusetts residents in the dark.
“They have withheld critical information on 600 incidents involving police, fire, and EMT.
“Blocking journalists at every turn, the administration has obstructed the flow of information to the public.”
A gathering of Venezuelan migrants spiraled out of control this week as gunshots rang out in the parking lot of a suburban Colorado town.
In yet another sign of trouble inside the Venezuelan community living in the US, chaos unleashed by migrants living in Aurora, Colorado has surfaced in a TikTok video.
'Those Venezuelans is taking over,' a man can be heard saying in an online video posted to TikTok by user 100packsavvy.
The July 29 footage shows bedlam in a Target parking lot in Aurora where Venezuelans had gathered in a weekend demonstration over the elections in their homeland.
While mostly peaceful, South American swarmed the shopping center, completely taking it over, with cars sardined, bumper-to-bumper.
Democrat DA Secures Slap on the Wrist for 16-Times Deported Illegal Alien Who Killed 64-Year-Old Colorado Man
A 16-times deported illegal alien is now only facing a slap on the wrist from the judge for killing a 64-year-old Colorado man after the Democrat prosecutor secured a cushy deal for the killer.
47-year-old Ignacio Cruz-Mendoza is now only facing a maximum sentence of one year in prison for taking the life of Scott Miller.
Cruz-Mendoza was offered the slap on the wrist from Democrat District Attorney Alexis King in exchange for pleading guilty to causing a deadly crash that killed Miller earlier this summer.
However, the maximum of one year in jail is a far more lenient sentence than what the same district attorney’s office has handed down for similar crashes.
According to the story, a Venezuelan gang called Tren de Agua has “taken over” two apartment buildings in Aurora, Colorado, changed the locks, put up ‘signs’ of ownership, and is now collecting residents’ rents as ‘protection money.’
Tren de Agua is a ‘criminal megagang’ based in a prison called Tocorón, which like the Auroroa apartment buildings, the gang has also taken over for use as its international headquarters. Allegedly, the megagang’s president, or jéfe, is the notorious Héctor “Niño” Guerrero, a particularly disagreeable and not-baby-like fellow who hapless Aurorans never had to worry about before 2024.
After diligent study and a municipal committee review, Mayor Coffman has concluded Tren de Agua’s new Aurora base of operations is the result of, wait for it, illegal immigration. He explained, “these massive waves of migrants coming across the border that many of them crossed the border illegally, were arrested, asked for a political asylum, were not adequately vetted, were released into the country, the city of Aurora.”
It’s not easy to locate Mayor Coffman’s political affiliation, but Ballotpedia described him as a “former Republican,” whatever that means. In any case, Coffman is a Mayor dealing with difficult new megagangs he probably never saw coming back when he took office in 2019. Coffman, and who can blame him, seems to be verging into rank conspiracy theory, believing that “somebody” paid the Venezuelan gangs to infest his once-scenic city:
"Somebody put them there and somebody funded it, whether it's federal government or
not, we're trying to find out who, these gangs apparently, or attracted to where there's a
concentration of, of, Venezuelan migrants. And so, they've, in fact, have kind of pushed out
the property management through intimidation and then, collected the rents," he added.
These poor Aurorans need some assistance. Wait! I have an idea. Mayor Coffman should call the Border Czar for help. I mean, that’s her job, right?
I know who Mayor Coffman shouldn’t call:

ACLU, NYT, & La Raza All Agree: 75% of Illegal Aliens Are Committing Felonies
... Social Security Administration, ACLU, New York Times, La Raza, LULAC, Democratic pundits Kirsten Powers and Eleanor Clift, the libertarian Reason Foundation, and USA Today.
They and countless others all acknowledge openly that illegal aliens use fraudulently obtained Social Security numbers, which means that they routinely commit Social Security fraud and forgery — felonies. When the Social Security number used by an illegal alien is a real one belonging to another person (as opposed to a made up number) the illegal alien is committing identity theft, another felony. And when the individual using a fraudulently obtained number completes an I-9 form, she commits perjury, yet another felony. People have been convicted for these crimes.
Therefore, those who say that illegal aliens do not commit crimes either ignorantly or deliberately fail to acknowledge that the use of fraudulently obtained Social Security numbers results in criminal activity or they are flat out lying when they say that illegal aliens have not committed any felonies after either sneaking into the United States or overstaying their visas.
It's pretty bad, about 20:1 male:female, and even then, it's no female that anyone would want.
In one sense —the official narrative’s sense— Springfield is a Biden immigration success story. Since the 1960’s, Springfield’s population slowly drained from 80,000 down to 60,000. But starting in 2021, something almost magical happened, an unexpected revitalization, an emergency shipment of badly needed workers, a resurgence in the city’s population: 20,000 new residents arrived.
Residents, but not citizens. And they’re not the best imaginable new residents. They arrived from Haiti.
Problems immediately began. There was simply not enough housing in the tiny town to handle so many migrants, even with all the federal grants to local NGO’s. Plus, Haitian customs are quite different from and are largely unappealing to American social mores. Then last year, a relocated Haitian living in Springfield under Biden’s parole program sped into oncoming traffic and caused a school bus wreck.
An 11-year-old boy died in the crash.
After that, a dam of pent-up criticism burst. Ever since, Springfield’s social media and its City Commission meetings have exploded with complaints from local citizens objecting to the Haitian invasion.
One tearful woman told commissioners she couldn’t handle all the migrants squatting in her front yard and threatening her, so she was moving out. Other residents have posted pictures of Haitains allegedly harvesting local ducks and geese from public ponds. Another woman claimed she saw her cat being butchered by hungry illegals. ...
Missing from the current public discussion is that Springfield’s local investment class, which probably includes every single city commissioner, are probably all receiving generous payments from the federal government for leasing previously worthless real estate to Biden’s paroled Haitian illegals. Not just that; for instance, somebody owns the ‘free’ clinic that is surely getting federal money to provide Haitian healthcare. And so on.
Millions of federal dollars are raining down on Springfield’s decision-makers faster than they can catch it all in their money buckets. But they’ll lose everything if they dare even criticize the Haitian invasion. That’s why they are just sitting around in their commission chairs. They aren’t going to say a word, and compliant corporate media will run cover for them.
Not only that, but federal housing subsidies for the Haitians exceed local rent prices, driving up rents, making the housing market more expensive for everybody, and pushing locals out in favor of higher-paying (using our money) illegals.
If they want to take back their previously peaceful city, the locals will have to vote out the current officeholders.
Some good news is that Senator J.D. Vance (R-Oh.), Trump’s VP nominee, has recently been sticking up for Springfield’s newly-endangered housecats, leaving the liberal cat ladies of Ohio feeling quite conflicted. So Springfield’s suffering may not be in vain.

For those of you who don’t live in Ohio (wish I was one of them! 😂 ), I’ll give you a little background on Springfield. My husband and his siblings went to a small Christian college in the town right next to Springfield about 25 years ago. Springfield is this cute little town full of hippies and uber-liberals. It’s very interesting to see this happening to them because it’s a result of all the policies they’ve always supported. It will be interesting if the light breaks through for them or if they’re unable to connect the dots. Funny story. Springfield has a couple tiny little very liberal colleges. Cedarville (where my husband and his siblings went to college) doesn’t have a swimming pool, so my sister-in-law went to one of the little colleges in Springfield to visit the pool. She was quite surprised to learn that swimwear was optional! 😂 That’s Springfield in a nutshell. And that’s 25-30 years ago! I don’t imagine they’ve gotten more conservative over the years! 😂
