The economic collapse of one of California’s iconic port cities, San Francisco, is not because of increased crimes, in fact it could be argued that the increased crime is a result of the very ‘rainbow-woke’ liberal-progressive economic policies that are the true cause of ‘The City’s’ economic collapse.
The following are just a scratch at the economic reality of the larger Frisco Bay Area.

U.S. Department of Defense’s Defense Health Agency RSV vaccine promotion graphic from October 2023.
It must be understood that before the Summer of 2023 there were no approved RSV vaccines: “Currently, there are no vaccines for RSV and this left many young infants and those over the age of 65 years susceptible to significant disease.”-Allison Malloy, doctor with U.S. Department of Defense’s Uniformed Services University, Bethesda, Maryland, 31JAN2023
It must be noted that the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) is a voluntary self-reporting system, many adverse events are not reported because the victims are either not aware of VAERS, or people are told by their healthcare providers that the adverse reaction is ‘normal’ (such as in the case of many people I know who suffered adverse reaction).
News 8 WROC New York, 04FEB2024, RSV vaccines quietly halted after mix-up:
In the last half of 2023 there were plenty of warnings about mixing up RSV, flu and Covid vaccines, and to confuse things more those warnings came from the same officials that promoted the issuing of Covid, flu and RSV vaccines at the same time. Here are just a few;
KARE11 Minnesota, November 2023, U.S. CDC reports mix-up involving vaccines for babies and adults:
The following is a boring, four and a half hours long, U.S. CDC Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) meeting, from June 2023, discussing the economical possibilities of issuing multiple vaccines at the same time, which included flu, Covid and new RSV vaccines.

Now, at the beginning of February 2024, the commander of the Utah Air and Army National Guard used a new phrase (code words?) for World War Three; the ‘great power competition’: “As we engage in great power competition, it is crucial that we innovate and optimize our force. We must adapt and change how we train and fight; conflict against China will be very different from any battle we’ve ever had. We must aggressively push new and sometimes uncomfortable tactics to win. This exercise lets the warfighters push their limits to create and perfect capabilities they need to deter and defeat our adversaries.”-Major General Daniel Boyack, Adjutant General of the Utah National Guard

Cold War: Approximately 1947 (due to U.S. President Harry Truman’s Truman Doctrine) to 1991 (Operation Desert Storm, collapse of Soviet Union).
Based upon a backwards Soviet T-54/55 battle tank chassis/lower hull, the BAT-M (бульдозер артиллерийском тягаче модернизированный, Bulldozer Artillery Tractor-Modernized) is basically a bulldozer, but western/NATO military analysts prefer to call it by the more mil-speak sounding title of ‘route clearing vehicle’. The lower hull of the T-54/55 was rotated so that the power pack (motor/transmission) and drive sprockets were at the front of the vehicle. It uses a manually operated transmission.
The BAT-M crew-cab is a widen/modified ZIS truck cabin. Supposedly 35-thousand were built by 1979, when production stopped. Today, most are rusting away, some are for sale.

A so-called Denton Program fire truck is loaded onto a C-17, for delivery to Guatemala. While the fire truck supposedly came from charity, the U.S. Air Force (USAF) C-17 flight is taxpayer funded. The Denton Humanitarian Assistance Program is not an independent charity but a taxpayer/’donation’ funded operation of the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) and Agency for International Development (USAID). It is also known as Denton Cargo Program or Denton Program, and was started in 1987, after a 1985 change to Title 10 United States Code, and is specifically intended to reduce illegals coming from Central America by helping the emergency response services of their home countries.
