There are times when you wish you were wrong about the extreme lust for power within leftist political officials… Alas, some things are also too predictable.
Boston authorities are now contemplating the confiscation of private property under the guise of COVID-19 mitigation or “public health”, because they need to house/detain people in socially distant venues. The COVID provides a reason to confiscate private domicile.
Massachusetts – […] Could the city commandeer vacant private properties to help supplement supply?
Leo Beletsky, a law and health sciences professor at Northeastern University, presented the controversial move to city officials during a virtual hearing last week, according to the news station.
“When you commandeer a property, there is no preliminary process. The government just comes in and takes over private property,” Beletsky told the outlet.
“There’s a long tradition of doing that in the United States,” he added. “This is not some radical idea.”
While Beletsky’s proposal was met with swift opposition, he said the practice could quickly remedy a solution to the pressing problem.
“Lives certainly take precedence over private property interests, especially when private property owners will be compensated,” Beletsky said. “This could also apply to all the hotels that are sitting empty.” (read more)
“FUNDAMENTAL CHAINS” – What they are planning to do is weaponize COVID-19 to attain ideological objectives. This is why they hyped the fear within it for almost a year. Nothing within their plan requires the approval or consent of any representative body in Washington DC. COVID is the tool to “fundamentally change” the way the United States exists.
Think about the federal government using mandates for enforced national COVID-19 compliance rules. Think about USDA (Dept of Agriculture) and OSHA federal inspections for social distancing (etc) in all businesses, not just restaurants.
Think about the COVID-19 regulatory and compliance system and what political beneficiaries stand to gain.
Think about the Dept of Education using COVID to restructure the way education is taught and the downstream regulations on charter schools and non-compliant educational systems that do not meet the ideological objectives of the master control plan.
Think about how the Dept. of Labor (complaint division) can be weaponized against political opposition based on arbitrary inspections under the guise of employee health and safety…. using federal COVID compliance rules.
Think about Housing and Urban Development (HUD) having new rules about dwellings and complexes for housing grants. Population density; the need to move into the suburbs and the confiscation of private property to “ensure the common safety” of the citizens. (read more)
With a name like Leo Beletsky and this idea of his you could easily mistake him for a Bolshevik of a hundred years ago. Then again …
Let me see if I understand this correctly… The government in Massaschusetts is considering confiscating private property, such as vacant hotels or motels in order to house people during the pandemic. Doesn’t that run totally COUNTER to the idea of releasing prisoners incarcerated for committing crimes because it would be dangerous to house them all in one building? Hey.. how about using all of those empty JAILS first! The state already owns them (no cost for compensating the legal owner) and those who might test positive can be kept separate from those who do not.
It’s the same old M.O. for our gubberment –
Purposefully create havoc, chaos, confusion, mayhem, unrest, despair and dependency, which then necessitates the creation of more gubberment, more taxes, more costs, more rules, more laws, more regulation, more corruption and less freedoms.
One of the tipping points will be when we, the indentured servants of gubberment employees, can no longer sustain the pigs at the trough, because as everyone knows, they produce NOTHING of value. They only consume resources.
When that can of Whop Ass is opened… Kattie bar the door!
Ben Franklin should have said “If you are WILLING to keep it”.

Of course, Benzy, you know that none of this has a thing to do with health, or logic. Only the advancement of communism, and no one owning anything. As always, start with something ‘way out there’ — empty hotels, vacant homes — and once that’s in place, then keep moving toward ‘we’re taking your home, and you are going to live here now.’ Camps, internment centers, etc., all in the false guise of ‘health’ … the scary thing is that most people will go … um, okay. It’s astonishing how quickly it’s unfolding. Then again, not at all. They’ve been planning these things for a long time.
It sounds a lot like what happened to the good Dr. in the movie Dr. Zhivago, went to war, came back and they took everything he had, said he had too much! That is the total control that Communists want here! That is what this whole scamdemic is all about, total control of our lives!
Proof, as a local radio host used to say, that liberals can not “link”. They are called hypocritical, but it’s just that they can’t connect anything they say and do with anything said or done previously. It’s their “feelings” that matter and not logic.
How European of them.
Europe actually kicks citizens out of apartments and buildings to house illegals.
“That’s some Catch – that Catch-22.”
They shut down the cities to travelers due to 99.5% non-lethal Whuflu so the hotels are vacant.
Then, they quarter their troops of socialist bums in them after confiscating the properties
because they are vacant due to the rules they made up to guarantee they would be.
Communist mafia at work.
Next?
Gulags?
Note that there has been some talk about forced isolation of those who are most vulnerable to the virus — over 65 or have COPD or diabetes? We’ll put you into a quarantined hotel that you can’t leave until we say so. Scared yet?
I fit those categories. If they plan to take me from my home they better pack a lunch. I’m NOT going easily!
Probably a lot easier than you might imagine. I’m 68, but if I hope to hold out for even a short while I had better be thinking about fortifying the interior of my home. Either steel panels up against the walls, around doors, and under large windows etc. or several layers of cement block. Even then the liberals will probably be shooting tear gas in which case I’ll need gas masks for at least 3 or 4. and need to worry about fires. Lets suppose I survive the first onslaught, is it even possible that I’ve bought enough ammunition? No my friend we will not put up much of a fight, maybe some of the young ones who scatter and become gorillas might do some damage. Well if push comes to shove they can wrap me in some bombs and point me in the right direction.
Yeah, I know you’re right, but I still plan to defend myself and my rights.

They already have incarcerated the elders in care homes. I spent an inordinate amount of money to get a new home so that I can spring Dad out of that “care home” a.k.a. unconstitutional lock-up. If the gruber-mint thinks they will EVER get him back again, much less my elderly Mom, they are full of bull dookie. My parents are both 85 and BOTH are moving into my house so that I can keep them safe from gruber-mint enforcers and Burn Loot Murder joggers and their Pantyfart cohorts.
My parents are MY responsibility now. I will not hesitate to enforce their freedom with a freedom stick used liberally upon any gruber-mint interloper who thinks for one red second they will ever take those two fine peoples’ freedom and liberty EVER again!
I think gulags are not at all far off, if Trump and whoever the white hats are, don’t crush this insurrection and coup.
Just another piece to puzzle of destroying America’s cities over the past year, led by Democrat rule for the past 60. Who would ever want to live in or go to a city again?
Even when this election fraud is fully revealed, overturned, and President Trump begins his second term, we cannot become complacent. The Left has shown us what their plans are — we will need to work very, very hard to thwart those plans because at some point one of them will be elected.
We can only hope that, when (and we have to count on this) Trump begins term #2, that there are military tribunals — likely by the thousands — of the open communists who are moving to install their system.
Sidney Powell is supposedly a Military Lawyer. Hmmmm.
apparently a number of them already have been elected – noted by the way government has been infiltrated. Not sure the dummies in the USA will ever wise up.
I can’t wait until that happens!! President Trump has won already, they just don’t know it yet. Have faith. Watch and see.
Not if they’re serving very long prison sentences or facing the gallows. I can only hope.
The President has enacted new laws to confiscate ALL ASSETS of these Evil Doers.
There is not enough judicial capacity to bring them all to justice .
It would tie up all courts for decades.
We need to think of the big picture, that is , saving the Republic and The Rule of Law.
By breaking totally THESE filthy scum financially, what is left of them can easily be dealt with later , think Epstein.
Hillary once said if the peasants found out what THEY had done THEY ALL would swing from lamp posts.
Leave retribution in God’s hands.
It’s going to happen. The ball is already rolling. The question that we must answer quickly is, who are the enforcers? When American law will be arresting fellow Americans for arbitrary ‘law breaking’ then it’s really ON. That’s the point of no return.
“We can never forget that everything Hitler did in Germany was “legal” and everything the Hungarian freedom fighters did in Hungary was “illegal.” It was “illegal” to aid and comfort a Jew in Hitler’s Germany. But I am sure that if I had lived in Germany during that time, I would have aided and comforted my Jewish brothers even though it was illegal. If I lived in a Communist country today where certain principles dear to the Christian faith are suppressed, I believe I would openly advocate disobeying these anti-religious laws …” – Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., “Letter from a Birmingham Jail”, 16 April 1963
This weekend I’ll be returning to NC, where it is now a misdemeanor to be unmasked in a commercial establishment. It will be enlightening to see if the local authoritues, with or without the aid of the businesses, will enforce this evil.
Everyone. 🙂
As if those who’ve had it and recovered should be masked.
But, but, but there’s proof you can get reinfected! Yeah, right. I think there are perhaos five such cases reported worldwide and who knows but that the first positive tests were false.
And but, but, but, immunity doesn’t last forever because antibodies disappear after a while! Right, as if there’s no such thing as cell memory that will produce them when needed.
But, but, but SCIENCE! … and Trump!
So I’ve read/heard where a circuit court ruled these types of lockdowns as unconstitutional. How soon before this gets to SCOTUS to shut this garbage down nationally? They lack the authority to do any of this.
When was the last time anyone protested against government over reach in the workers socialist paradise of Massachusetts? State Supreme Courts have ruled that their Governors edicts and mandates are unconstitutional. Yet then they just continue to rule unconstitutionally. Their State AG’s are in with the criminal behavior. When the rule of law concerning the people’s natural rights is tossed out the window you no longer have a lawful government and that Rubicon was already crossed early this year. They are all testing the waters to see how far they’ll be allowed to go. Hey, they even stole a national election and nobody seems to care. Don’t think that emboldened them?
“Necessity is the plea for every infringement of human liberty; it is the argument of tyrants; it is the creed of slaves.” – William Pitt (1759–1806)
“Rightful liberty is unobstructed action according to our will within limits drawn around us by the equal rights of others. I do not add ‘within the limits of the law’, because law is often but the tyrant’s will, and always so when it violates the rights of the individual.” -Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)
Cal/OSHA’s new COVID-19 emergency regulation provides the blueprint by which Cal/OSHA’s investigators will conduct inspections of worksites and the deficiencies they will be trained to identify in the course of an inspection.
I wonder if this could be argued as violating a penumbra of the third amendment. People moved into your property by the government are in some ways analogous to troops and we are in peace time.
I really don’t think the authors of the third amendment were thinking “It’s bad for the government to force you to quarter troops, but perfectly fine to force you to quarter a different group of random people.”
Still going on in the EU I think. It used to be big news and now we hear nothing about it. Not hearing that it has ended makes me think it’s still going on anyway.
They tyrants are coming out into the light as they believe it is now safe for them to do so. Also, “Great Reset.” It’s funny that it’s being called “conspiracy theory” while at the same time books like these exist:
It’s a call for full-on communism — government control over everything both public and private and personal.
Conspiracy? Yes? Theory? No… it’s documented.
You all need to stop calling this insane tyranny “communism”. Just stop. And no, it’s not “fascism” either.
What they’re doing, what they’ve been doing throughout Obama’s reign and since, is ILLEGAL. Biden is talking in front of a bogus “Office of the President-Elect” to make weak minds BELIEVE he is legal, and credible, but he is not, they are not. They are, as I have been writing throughout Trump’s presidency, an organized CRIMINAL mob, and an insane CULT.
Barr, Trump, should have arrested Biden already. Go back to 2017, and Comey’s testimony before that congressional committee: HE should have been arrested, for targeting the President solely on the basis of his outrageous, petty (NOT “Higher Loyalty”) feelings, as he ADMITTED to congress. John Roberts should have been hauled away for “passing” Obamacare, and calling the Individual Mandate a tax, not the tyrannical fine — indeed, BLACKMAIL — it was. “Judge” Sullivan should have been hauled right out of “his” court, never to be seen again a free man. Etc., ad infinitum…Schiff, Pelosi, Schumer, Joe Scarborough,…BUMP-bump-bump-bump, BUMP-bump-bump-bump…listen to the drumbeat of justice delayed and denied, for THE LAST 13 YEARS…
They’re not any IDEOLOGY. They are CRIMINALS, motivated by: REVENGE. Period. That’s all, folks. Obama is a Black racist, Pelosi a clamoring Wormtongue… Stop dropping your focus, by using tired old name-callings, weary, easy dogmas….
The “Great Reset” is coming and you’ll like it dammit!
The “Great Reset” is coming and you’ll like it dammit!

“Willing” sellers, “market prices”
Yeah, right.
How did that “land confiscation” turn out for White Rhodesian farmers confronted with Mugabe’s “war veterans” who wanted the White farmers’ fields in recompense for taking the White farmer’s country?
I don’t think majority rule means what these grubers think it means….
“I’m gonna fight ’em off
A Seven Nation Army couldn’t hold me back
They’re gonna rip it off
Taking their time right behind my back
And I’m talking to myself at night
Because I can’t forget
Back and forth through my mind
Behind a cigarette.
And the message comin’ from my eyes says,
“Leave it alone”
Don’t wanna hear about it
Every single one’s got a story to tell
Everyone knows about it
From the Queen of England to the Hounds of Hell
And if I catch it coming back my way
I’m gonna serve it to you.
That ain’t what you wanna hear
But it’s what I’ll do.
And the feeling coming from my bones says
“Find a home”
I’m going to Wichita
Far from this opera forevermore
I’m gonna work the straw
Make the sweat drip out of every pore
And I’m bleeding and I’m bleeding, and I’m bleeding
Right before the Lord
All the words are gonna bleed from me
And I will think no more.
And the stains coming from my blood tell me
“Go back home.”
~The White Stripes “Seven Nation Army”
“First they came and took the empty properties, and I said nothing because I did not own an empty property. Next they came for empty second homes and rental properties, and I said nothing because I did not own a second home or rental. Then they came for the home where my family and I live….”
I hope they (whomever “they” may be) try to take private property in the south. If the authorities thought “they” had their hands full at the Bundy ranch standoff in 2014, “they” are in for a big surprise.
People in Boston, surprisingly considering the stand against taxation without representation, are more willing than most to give up their Rights and Freedoms. Remember during the manhunt after the Boston Marathon bombing when the militarized police were pulling people from their homes and making them stand in makeshift cages in the streets in their pajamas while they searched their homes and took their weapons. Nobody, not one, stood up and said no, this is wrong. Don’t expect much pushback here either.
I’m looking forward to virtue signaling McMansion owners in affluent suburbs having either their own house shared like Dr. Zhivago or empty house in their neighborhood filled up with section 8 COVID refugees.
Good times.
Confirmation #31,391 that my decision to flee Massachusetts (Cambridge, no less) in 1977 was a good one.
Not that any place in America is completely safe from these totalitarians.

Did the Dominion / Vote Fraud System / Illegal Alien Parasites enable her to obtain office?
She has the face if a rat
She has the “crazy eyes”. I like to watch the true crime shows on tv. When they show photos of the perps(sociopaths and psychopaths who commit crimes), you can see something off in the perp’s eyes. The eyes are either vacant or they’re “crazy”. This gal has crazy eyes. Nuff said.

None of these microscopically equipped Communist, would ever attempt to enforce the Dictates they Advocate.
Taking over private property is just what they did in Cuba. I knew a family who came home and their house was locked up & everything in it. No longer theirs. ThAt is why Cuban Americans are some of the best patriots in America. I solute them!!!

Give the left an inch and they’ll take the whole country.
Interesting. The Oregon Medical Marijuana Program has been effectively confiscating residential rental properties from landlords for the purposes of committing Federal felonies for over two decades. When the Oregon Health Authority created the OMMP, they implemented policies and procedures to issue address specific grow site permits to tenants or anyone else without the knowledge or consent of the property owner. The legislature also amended Oregon residential tenancy laws to enable tenants to evade eviction simply by removing the marijuana plants within 24 hours. The landlord is then compelled to evict based on damage to the property which the tenant can then dispute or repair. The landlord is not entitled to know who obtained grow site permits for their property. The OMMP also issues address specific permits to perform Butane Hash Oil Extraction without land owner knowledge or consent. However; the landlord must be listed as a person with a financial interest in the operation that they were not informed of.
In one case in Yamhill County, a landlord’s efforts to evict a tenant who had converted a 3,600 square foot horse barn associated with a rural residence into a massive marijuana grow capable of producing hundreds of pounds of pot per year provoked the tenant to shoot at the landlord’s children. The 12 gauge shotgun appears to have been loaded with slugs that can be lethal out to a mile away. He missed by about ten feet from a range of about 150 yards. Yamhill County Judge Ladd Wiles gave the tenant a free pass for the shooting based on perjured testimony that the landlord had consented to the grow and was harassing them.
Just FYI, Judge Ladd Wiles is the husband of Amanda S Marshall, the former US Attorney for the State of Oregon. Ms Marshall had aggressively prosecuted the operators of similar marijuana grows to enable civil forfeiture of the property. Ms Marshall is famous for being compelled to resign after it was revealed that she had engaged in an extramarital affair with a subordinate at the US Attorney’s office. Ms Marshall had invoked the Clintonion excuse that it really wasn’t adultery because she had merely been performing oral sex on him. Scott Keran if the US Attorney office admitted that they had also been having intercourse. The disbarment proceedings by the Oregon Bar Association against Amanda Marshall for committing purjury were concurrent with the eviction hearing.
This saga becomes even more interesting after the recent publication of a guest editorial in the Macminiville Register Guard by “S Amanda Marshall” in support of drug decriminalization. Ms Marshall reveals that she and her son were compelled to seek drug treatment in another state, apparently after being arrested. This raises the interesting possibility that Ms Marshall and her son might have been one of the investors who had secured grow site permits for the rental property and had then been arrested while smuggling the pot out of state to sell at an extreme profit.
The Biden cabal will soon be moving all non-compliant (define as you please) into concentration camps soon enough. Didn’t think it could ever happen in America? Think again.
It was always thought of as a Conspiracy theory by Alex Jones.
That FEMA was setting up these concentration camps to be used at a later date.
Hmmm, seems Jones was clairvoyant.
It’s time to read the book by George Orwell, or watch the movie, ANIMAL FARM. It used to be required reading in school many, many years ago.
