The housing crisis in Puerto Rico has reached concerning levels due to the unexpected increase

Europe is now a continent trying to undo a decade of insane immigration policies that have shattered the standards of life of its population.

In every country the very same battle is afoot, but probably no society has made a U-turn quite as shocking as Sweden.

The 10 million-strong former ‘liberal utopia’ has jeopardized its stable economy, high quality of life, and wrecked the social tissue of its ‘open and progressive’ people.

When this process began back in 2014, Sweden’s then-Prime Minister Fredrik Reinfeldt asked citizens to ‘show tolerance’, but one year later with almost 163,000 non-assimilating migrants having entered, he was led to say that Sweden needed ‘respite’.

But there was none.

Now the current Swedish government says it is implementing a ‘paradigm shift’ in its migration policies as it targets ‘sustainable immigration’.

CNBC reported:

“As it stands, around 2.1 million of Sweden’s inhabitants, or 20% of the population, were born abroad, with Syria, Iraq, Iran, Somalia and Afghanistan the most common non-EU countries of birth.

The current center-right government has announced a raft of initiatives and policies designed to reduce what’s known as irregular — or undocumented — immigration. qq new initiatives to deport or repatriate migrants (including using financial incentives) and to increase its powers to revoke residence permits.”

Sweden wants to get rid of its ‘shadow society’ of migrants who don’t even have a legal right to stay in the country – the illegals.

“Stockholm insists that it will ‘continue to have dignified reception standards’, but says ‘those who have no grounds for protection or other legal rights to stay in Sweden must be expelled’.”

In all Europe, the populations have grown fed-up with the suicidal policy of unchecked mass migration, and are demanding rapid change, including implementing deportations.

“’Sweden is on track to have the lowest number of asylum seekers since 1997 and, for the first time in over 50 years, Sweden has net emigration’, the ministry said in a statement, citing information from the Swedish Migration Agency.”

That means more foreigners are leaving the country than moving to it – that’s what Swedes want.

The number of ‘asylum seekers’ in the European Union has ‘stabilized’ at an impossibly  high level, but it continues to decline in Sweden.

The Scandinavian country saw a 27% drop in asylum applications in the period up to July of this year, compared with the same period last year.

“’This development towards sustainable immigration is necessary to strengthen integration and reduce social exclusion’, Minister for Migration Maria Malmer Stenergard said in a statement.”

Highways leading out of Florida are jammed for miles as residents evacuate the Sunshine State before Hurricane Milton lands this week.

Since Hurricane Milton was upgraded to a Category 5 storm, millions of residents have packed up their things to exit the state, only to be met with gridlock traffic.

Hillsborough County in the Tampa Bay Area has ordered evacuations among its residents.

Hillsborough County Fire Chief Jason Dougherty, while ordering residents to evacuate, gave an eerie warning, “If you remain there, you could die. My men and women could die trying to rescue you. They are heroes, but please do not put them in that situation. Help them by leaving zones A and B today.”

WATCH:

Please be advised that I-75 between Morris Bridge and Bruce B Downs is experiencing significant backups. I-275 northbound heading into Pasco County is also seeing heavy traffic, with significant slowdowns starting at 275 and Livingston Avenue.

Per The New York Post:

Highways out of Florida are backed up for miles as panicked residents attempt to flee the state before Hurricane Milton’s landfall later this week.

Hurricane Milton stands at Category 5, the highest rating on the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Wind Scale. It is expected to have winds stronger than 157 miles per hour.

In Hillsborough County, home to nearly 1.5 million people in the Tampa Bay area, residents are scrambling as local leadership orders the evacuation of zones A and B — essentially anyone living immediately on the coast or just outside.

“We’ve ordered evacuations for zones A and B for a very good reason,” Hillsborough County Fire Chief Jason Dougherty said during a press briefing in Tampa, as reported by the Florida Phoenix.

As residents evacuated from the state, many stores in the Tampa area were left barren.

Went inside this #Tampa Walmart. The produce and frozen food shelves are empty. An employee told us they put everything in trailers ahead of Hurricane #Milton so it wouldn’t go bad. She said they didn’t do that during Hurricane #Helene and ended up losing a lot, @nbc6. pic.twitter.com/GSD2ozvSkd

Fuel shortages have also been reported as residents are fleeing the Sunshine State.

CNN reported that over 1,000 fuel stations have run out of fuel.

On Sunday the Pennsylvania Supreme Court dismissed a lawsuit over mail-in ballot curing.

Democrats heavily relied on mail-in ballots in 2020 to get Joe Biden across the finish line.

Recall that President Trump was ahead of Joe Biden by more than 750,000 votes in Pennsylvania at midnight on Election Day in 2020, but Democrats in Pittsburgh and Philadelphia kept counting ‘mail-in ballots’ for two weeks without GOP monitors present.

Joe Biden ‘won’ Pennsylvania by approximately 80,000 votes after Democrats used mail-in ballots to cheat.

The RNC sued Pennsylvania to block mail-in ballot curing and the state’s high court said the committee filed the lawsuit too close to the election.

Election officials will now be able to notify voters of ‘mistakes’ and allow them to make changes to their ballots.

Reuters reported:

Pennsylvania election officials will be able to notify voters of any mistakes in their mail-in ballots and let them make changes, the state’s top court ruled, in a blow to Republicans who sought to block the practice in a state crucial to determining who will be the next U.S. president.

In declining on Saturday to hear a lawsuit brought by the Republican National Committee and its state affiliate against so-called notice and cure procedures, the Pennsylvania Supreme Court said the RNC filed the case too close to the Nov. 5 election, which pits Republican former President Donald Trump against Democrat Vice President Kamala Harris.

Last month the Pennsylvania Supreme Court ruled that undated ballots or improperly dated ballots won’t be counted.

A lower court previously ruled it was unconstitutional to reject improperly dated mail-in ballots.

The Pennsylvania Republican Party and the RNC took legal action and appealed the court’s decision.

The state’s Supreme Court ruled in their favor last month.

Kamala Harris cannot even handle the softest possible interview without stepping on a rake and handing President Trump a gift.

Harris appeared with the clucking hens on The View today in New York City to discuss her campaign and spread more lies to the American public regarding her regime’s ‘accomplishments.’ This marked Harris’s first live interview and first talk show appearance since becoming the Democratic presidential nominee.

Unfortunately for her, The View co-host Sunny Hostin briefly decided to practice journalism. She questioned Harris about whether she would change one thing Biden had done as president.

Harris could have brushed this off in several ways, including by claiming she would have been tougher on immigration and major corporations or making abortion a more prominent priority. But she went all-in with the White House vegetable.

The Trump campaign was ecstatic to highlight the exchange.

“If anything, would you have done something differently than President Biden during the past four years?”

KAMALA: “There is not a thing that comes to mind.”

HOSTIN: If anything, would you have done something differently than President Biden during the past four years?”

HARRIS: There is not a thing that comes to mind. And I’ve been a part of most of the decisions that have had an impact.

Count on this appearing in a Trump advertisement in the near future, perhaps as soon as this week.

TGP readers will recall that towards the end of the only debate between Trump and Harris, the 45th President asked why Harris did not propose any of her ‘new’ ideas before she decided to run for President for a second time.

“She just started by saying she is going to do this she is going to do that, she is going to do all of these wonderful things. Why hasn’t she done it? She has been there for 3 1/2 years,” Trump inquired.

Now we all know the answer, and it may have wrecked Harris’s presidential campaign for good.
