According to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index, Trump’s net worth has soared by more than $4 billion this year to an estimated $7.8 billion.

Trump ranked 328th on the list at Wednesday’s market close, while the 93-year-old Soros was down in 375th with an estimated $7.2 billion net worth. A hedge fund manager, Soros shot to infamy for crashing the British pound in 1992.

Naperville, IL councilman asks affluent residents to house illegal migrants.

Washington Examiner: Councilman in wealthy Chicago suburb asks ‘affluent’ residents to take illegal immigrants into homes.

A city councilman in a wealthy Chicago suburb is calling on residents of his “affluent community” to welcome illegal immigrants into their homes as the migrant crisis continues to ravage Chicago.

The influx of migrants who have arrived in Chicago from the southern border is becoming an unendurable burden for the area’s resources, and Naperville Councilman Josh McBroom does not want to see tax dollars fund the transient population, according to a report.

“The public should also know taxpayer dollars are not, and will not, be used to house any potential migrants in the neighborhood. [ Not yet. - DD ] There’s been some misinformation out there.”

The needs of the migrants could rather be met by residents voluntarily welcoming the illegal immigrants into their homes, McBroom suggested.

Meet Josh McBroom.

Sounds like another Martha's Vineyard Experience in the making. 

People in affluent communities aren't already providing shelter and food to the new neighbors? Shocking! How dare they!

Henry Kissinger Song - Monty Python (Eric Idle)

Lyrics:

Henry Kissinger
How I'm missing yer
You're the Doctor of my dreams
With your crinkly hair and your glassy stare

And your machiavellian schemes
I know they say that you are very vain
And short and fat and pushy but at least you're not insane
Henry Kissinger

How I'm missing yer
And wishing you were here

Henry Kissinger
How I'm missing yer
You're so chubby and so neat
With your funny clothes and your squishy nose

You're like a German parakeet
All right so people say that you don't care
But you've got nicer legs than Hitler
And bigger tits than Cher

Henry Kissinger
How I'm missing yer
And wishing you were here

Group of bandits break into 13 homes, steal luxury cars in NYC. Equity!

NY Post: Group of bandits break into 13 homes, steal luxury cars in NYC.

A group of bandits broke into more than a dozen homes in ritzy NYC neighborhoods, swiping nearly 10 luxury cars in a cross-borough operation that spanned three months.

The car thieves stole a Porsche, Mercedes, Range Rover and other high-end vehicles from driveways in Queens and Brooklyn from June through August, police said.

They were still on the loose Sunday night.

The gang typically worked in groups of four and three and targeted homes primarily in the affluent neighborhood of Whitestone but also hit houses in Bayside, Jamaica Estates, Holliswood, Manhattan Beach and Bay Ridge.

They would strike in the early morning hours — often when the homeowners were asleep inside.
[.]
They struck again the day after that and swiped a Range Rover SUV and a Porsche from a home near Cambridge Road and Somerset Street — and again a day when they drove away with jewelry, clothes, cash and a Mercedes Benz from a home near Ridge Boulevard and 77th Street in Brooklyn, police said.

In the words of Celine Dion, Let them touch those things for once!

Touch them? Nah. Let them take and keep those things. It's free market equity!

And nothing less than $50's on the TP roll. $1's are insulting.

The Biden's Thanksgiving: At a $30M Nantucket Compound.

Daily Mail: The $30million Nantucket compound owned by Biden's private equity billionaire pal where first family will spend Thanksgiving: Security will lock down sprawling property for holiday where President could decide his 2024 plans.

President Joe Biden, his wife Jill and the extended Biden clan will once again camp out at the luxurious Nantucket compound owned by billionaire businessman turned philanthropist David Rubenstein for the Thanksgiving holiday. 

The Biden clan arrives on the island on Tuesday evening, where they'll spend the week eating turkey and talking about the 2024 presidential race at the same 13-acre estate they stayed on last year.

Biden should be talking about taxing the wealthy, shouldn't he? As Obama would say, "The Rubenstein's didn't build that!" 

TAX THE RICH! TAX THE BILLIONAIRES! MAKE THEM PAY! CONFISCATE THEIR WEALTH! OCCUPY WALL STREET!

Look at all that land! Plenty of room for building housing for illegal immigrants and the homeless.

Sure hope that "compound" has plenty of Adult Diaper Changing Rooms.

Wondering...if the Rubenstein's covered all the furniture with plastic? Is Hunter invited? Will he bring his stripper baby mama? How many of Joe and Jill's illegitimate grandchildren will be there? What 1970s floral sofa pattern will Jill's dress resemble? With all that land, will there be an Easter Egg Hunt? Before the meal, will Joe read excerpts from Ashley's Diary? So many questions...

California first relief fund of its kind: financial support to Undocumented Immigrants.

CBS 13 Sacramento: California Now Offering Support To Undocumented Immigrants, First Relief Fund Of Its Kind.

Starting today, undocumented immigrants in California can begin applying for financial assistance to support them during the coronavirus pandemic — in the first relief fund of its kind.

Gov. Gavin Newsom announced the $125 million coronavirus disaster relief fund last month to support undocumented immigrants who were ineligible for federal stimulus checks and unemployment benefits due to their immigration status.
[.]
“I’m not here to suggest that $125 million is enough. But I am here to suggest it’s a good start, and I’m very proud it’s starting here in the state of California,” [said Newsom].

A paltry $125 Mill? It's just the beginning.

San Francisco delivers alcohol, tobacco and teh pot to quarantined addicts.

Omaha.com (AP): San Francisco gets alcohol, tobacco for addicts in hotels.

San Francisco is using private donations to deliver alcohol, tobacco and medical marijuana to a few dozen people dealing with addiction as they isolate or quarantine in city-leased hotel rooms during the pandemic, officials confirmed Wednesday.

There are about 270 people, mostly homeless, staying in hotel rooms to recover from COVID-19 or to wait out possible exposure to the virus. Nearly a dozen people have received alcohol and more than two dozen have received tobacco, the San Francisco Chronicle reported.

City officials said that private donations pay for the items, and that helping manage nicotine, opioid and alcohol cravings ensures that recovering people don't go out and possibly infect others.

Dr. Grant Colfax, San Francisco's public health director, said the harm-reduction approach is widespread and based on decades of sound public health policy.

"...decades of sound public health policy." Okay, then.

O'Rourke meltdown over immigration halt. Who will feed King BOB?

@ (real Twitter but fake first name) BetoORourke

Townhall: Beto Had a Total Meltdown Over Trump's Decision to Temporarily Halt Immigration.

Late Monday night President Donald Trump tweeted that he would be halting immigration to the United States during the Wuhan coronavirus pandemic. He expanded on that decision during Tuesday's White House Coronavirus Task Force briefing, saying immigration will be suspended for the next 60 days.

Failed presidential candidate Beto O'Rourke (D) took to Twitter to criticize the president's decision. Beto made the claim that Trump is "attempt[ing] to distract us from his total mismanagement" of the Wuhan coronavirus.

Bernie suspends campaign. FEEL THE BERN!

Daily Beast: Bernie Sanders Suspends 2020 Presidential Campaign.

Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders announced on Wednesday he would suspend his campaign for the Democratic presidential nomination, bringing to an end a comeback bid four years in the making that saw him, briefly, become the frontrunner for the Democratic nomination.

So Bern, did 'ya get another (half-million dollar) "lake cabin"? A yacht? A Porsche? A Deluxe apartment in the sky?

Supporters of Sanders must be reaching for the Maalox. Maybe even the hard stuff!

Bloomberg does Mary Poppins? WTH is this?

@ Jack Allison Twitter:

DEM Dream Ticket: Bloomberg/Hillary.

Daily Mail: Bloomberg 'is considering picking Hillary Clinton as his running mate in the 2020 Democratic race'.

Mike Bloomberg is considering making Hillary Clinton his running mate, a source close to his campaign has told Drudge Report.

Polling found the Bloomberg-Clinton combination would be a formidable force to take on Trump in the race for the White House, the source said.
[.]
Bloomberg's campaign would not confirm or deny the reports when DailyMail.com reached out for comments.

Well...a Bloomberg/Hillary ticket must have President Donald Trump laughing his way into his second term.

I want to note that on both her Tuesday and Wednesday FOX television program this past week, Laura Ingraham - whom I like a lot - said there will not be a brokered convention for the DEMS and that the DEMS will have their ticket decided by mid-March. 

I'm no one to make accurate predictions, just glance through all my past NHL game and series predictions. But I've been saying for a long time Hillary will run and the convention will be brokered. I like Laura, a lot - but count on a brokered convention. If Bernie has the rug pulled out from under him again - and he will - a whole lot of pissed off Bernie supporters will be either staying home on election day or they'll be voting for Trump.

I can't think of a more nightmarish couple than Tiny Mike and The Bloated Loser. An old, racist, rich, white, politically entrenched billionaire and a bitter, phony, angry, health-impaired clown. Viva DIVERSITY!

Then again, the story is a Drudge "exclusive"... so, GIANT GRAIN of SALT required. More likely a "floated" disinfo trial balloon from Tiny Mike's campaign. Gotta keep paying those focus groups.

The correct spelling is Whine Cave.

CNN: Democrats debate wine cave.

The term "wine cave" was thrown around repeatedly Thursday night at the Democratic presidential debate during an exchange over how Pete Buttigieg is funding his campaign.

Here's why: The South Bend, Indiana, mayor headlined a fundraiser earlier this month in Rutherford, California, at Hall Wines, a winery owned by Kathryn Hall, who was the US ambassador to Austria from 1998 to 2001, and her husband, Craig.

Part of the event took place in a so-called "wine cave" under a chandelier of 1,500 Swarovski crystals.
[.]
"So [Buttigieg] just recently had a fundraiser that was held in a wine cave full of crystals and served $900-a-bottle wine," Sen. Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts said on Thursday.

Whine Caves, swimmin' pools, movie stars!

Bernie Sanders wants government-owned broadband.

Tech Dirt: Bernie's Broadband Plan Gives A Big Green Light To Community Broadband.

We've long noted how community broadband networks are often an organic response to the expensive, slow, or just-plain unavailable service that's the direct product of a broken telecom market and regulatory capture. While you'll occasionally see some deployment duds if the business models aren't well crafted, studies have shown such local networks (there are 750 and counting now in the States) offer cheaper, faster service than many incumbents. Chattanooga's EPB, for example, was rated the best ISP in America last year by Consumer Reports.
[.]
Enter Bernie Sanders, whose new broadband plan was released last week and appears to have been cobbled together from the collected nightmares of AT&T, Verizon, and Comcast executives. The plan would not only restore the FCC's net neutrality authority and the agency's authority over ISPs in general, but it would restore the FCC's broadband privacy rules scuttled in 2017 by telecom lobbyists. It would also ban arbitrary and unnecessary broadband usage caps and overage fees, and ban the sneaky fees ISPs use to covertly jack up the advertised price post sale.

But the plan takes some extra time to highlight how a Sanders administration would embrace community broadband, including the elimination of protectionist state laws, and the doling out of $150 billion to be used largely toward building alternatives to the private sector telecom status quo:

    "Municipalities across the country running their own internet services have proved they can deliver high-quality service at a fraction of the price of established monopolies. Cities can run their own networks just like a water or electric utility or build out an open access network to allow multiple providers to compete on price and service, rather than one or two conglomerates gouging customers and setting their own prices. Bernie believes it’s time to stop relying on profit-focused corporations to get to universal broadband. Bernie will provide the necessary funding for states, cities, and co-ops to build out their own broadband networks, and ensure all households are connected by the end of his first term."

Needless to say, the telecom sector isn't going to much like any of this.
[.]
The proposal isn't without its problems. Several economists versed in telecom and media tell me that the proposals to retroactively break up giants like Comcast NBC Universal and AT&T Time Warner are little more than pipe dreams that would be logistical nightmares in actual practice. And the Sanders camp also oddly opposes so-called "one touch make ready" rules (which allow any qualified third party to move pole equipment instead of just incumbent ISPs) despite widespread support of such proposals (unions tell me "one touch" poses a safety and security risk, but those claims are hotly contested).

Is there any private industry that this rapidly aging, anti-Charity, rape-porn fantasy writing Communist doesn't think the government should own, run and operate?

And Big Tech likes to think Liberals are their friends and allies.

Former presidential candidate Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) says the “entire world is watching” the response of President Donald Trump and his chief strategist Steve Bannon to the recent wave of anti-Semitic attacks across America.

Sanders describes himself as “alarmed” by the recent rise of anti-Semitic attacks. Jewish Community Centers across America recently received bomb threats, while a Jewish cemetery in Philadelphia was vandalized.

In a speech to J Street, a liberal nonprofit hostile to Israel, Sanders said that “the attacks must be condemned at the highest levels of government.”

“I hope very much that President Trump and his political adviser Mr. Bannon understand that the entire world is watching, that it is imperative that their voices be loud and clear in condemning anti-Semitism,” Sanders said.

He also attacked Trump for failing to mention the word “Jew” in his statement on Holocaust Memorial Day, calling it “rather extraordinary.”

...Waiting for Bernie to issue a loud and clear condemnation of his systemic history of hiring Jew-hating, gay-hating, Asian-hating, misogynist and racist staffers.

Bloomberg apologizes for 'stop and frisk'.

The Jeff Bezos Peoples' Republic: Bloomberg apologizes for stop-and-frisk ahead of likely presidential run.

BROOKLYN, N.Y. — Former New York mayor Michael R. Bloomberg, who has moved toward joining the Democratic presidential race, apologized Sunday for his handling of stop-and-frisk, a controversial policing tactic that has been criticized as a kind of racial profiling and which Bloomberg defended as recently as early this year.

Bloomberg expressed regrets at a predominantly black megachurch he has visited many times, telling congregants that he didn’t understand the full effects on African American and Latino communities quickly enough and should have curtailed the program sooner.

“I’m sorry we didn’t,” said Bloomberg. “I can’t change history, however today, I want you to know I realize back then, I was wrong.”

Yet another in an ongoing series of Great Apology Tours from the diverse DEM party of old, white male billionaires. How quaint.

Stockholm’s begging ban narrowly passed in ELITE district of Lidingö.

RT: ‘Never been so ashamed’: Stockholm’s begging ban narrowly passed in ELITE district has Swedes arguing over welcoming vs. security.

Lidingö, a tony area whose residents include ABBA and other celebrities, has become the first in Stockholm to ban begging. Seemingly flying in the face of the Swedish identity, the move, passed by one vote, has divided the city.

With its elite residents including ABBA’s Bjorn Ulvaeus, Lidingö is only the seventh municipality in all of Sweden to ban begging, and the idea still makes many Swedes uncomfortable.

In a country whose very identity is tied up with its robust universal welfare state and which for years had what was considered Europe’s most welcoming attitude to outsiders, the decision came as a bit of shock. Some outraged locals have called it a violation of human rights. Others, however, said it’s necessary to keep the well-heeled residents safe.

“The begging is a big problem and makes many Lidingö people feel insecure,” Daniel Källenfors, chairman of the municipal council, told Dagens Nyheter on Monday, after the measure was passed.

Opponents of the ban say it merely pushes the problem into other municipalities and scoff at the idea that moneyed locals feel threatened by beggars. “I have not so far found any Lidingö residents who say they are insecure,” Patrik Buddgård of the Center Party told DN. His party joined the Liberals to oppose the ban, which squeaked by with a vote of 26 for to 25 against.

“I’m afraid of this development,” Anna Larsdotter Persson, who watched the vote from the audience, told Mitti.se, adding that she “does not buy” the idea that the ban will improve the lives of beggars and believes it is a “populist policy” masquerading as something else.

“I have never been so ashamed of Lidingö as I am now,” Anita Dorazio, a representative for the Stockholm Asylum Committee and refugee advocate, told the outlet.
[.]
...[T]he beggars, in many cases that attracted publicity, are not locals. Six Bulgarians were arrested in December for trafficking nine of their countrymen to southern Sweden and forcing them to beg. The victims, including a pregnant woman who miscarried after she was assaulted by the traffickers, were fined, beaten, or starved by their “employers” if they did not bring in enough cash, according to Växjö District Court’s ruling.

Nor are beggars the only ones feeling the chill as the famously welcoming Swedish attitude begins to curdle after years of abuse. Faced with the reality that over 418,431 asylum-seekers – and a total of 920,206 immigrants – have made their way to Sweden since the Syrian war kicked the migrant crisis into high gear, Sweden, with a population of less than 10 million, has belatedly realized that being a migration capital of Europe isn’t all it’s cracked up to be. Bengtsfors, a municipality in southern Sweden, was forced to beg the government for economic help earlier this year after taking in more migrants than it could afford.

We can't have the Elite Well-Heeled Society feeling unsafe and insecure by the presence of beggars.
