2 Dead at Trump Rally; City Plunged into Housing Crisis as Migrants Increase Population Some 30 Percent-Mayor Rob Rue Says-Fed Policy ‘Setting Us Up to Fail;’ plus Sunday Weekly Headlines Recap
Just before 5 PM ET (July 13, 2024 @ 16:56:08) on Saturday evening the headline for this report had no mention of the attempted assassination of deposed President Donald J. Trump (R). The headline in draft mode at that time read as follows: “City Plunged into Housing Crisis as Migrants Increase Population Some 30 Percent-Mayor Rob Rue Says-‘City Overwhelmed’ Fed Policy ‘Setting Us Up to Fail;’ plus Sunday Weekly Headlines Recap.” For a range of reasons, MHProNews made the editorial decision to put the report and commentary on the apparent Trump assassination attempt in Part III of this report, not because it isn’t important. It obviously is. But rather, in this fashion, the contrast between what was written before 5 PM ET and the deadly attack that occurred in Butler PA at the Trump Rally around 6:30 PM ET can be contrasted now, and years later too.So, the following is how the original text as drafted read before this update: Stating the obvious can bring clarity. U.S. housing policy is obviously a local issue, but it is also a state and national issue. The national housing picture is comprised of thousands of local markets. With that in mind: “Springfield officials were in the dark about the possibility of a large immigrant relocation to the area, Mayor Rob Rue said,” according to the Springfield News Sun in Ohio. Left-leaning Yahoo News picked up the report by WHIO which on 7.12.2024 said: “Leaders in Springfield [OH] want federal help to deal with a huge immigration surge that’s threatening their ability to keep the city safe. City leaders say the population has jumped by 20,000 in about three years.” Springfield reportedly had a population of about 58,000 prior to this surge of Haitians and others. City officials have said that the Haitians are here “legally” as refugees with temporary federal protective status, but that there has been no commensurate surge of funding to cope with the ‘unexpected’ influx of migrants. Right-leaning Fox News said: “This border crisis, the policy of this administration, is failing cities like ours and taxing us beyond our limit,” said Springfield Mayor Rob Rue. Per Fox: “City Manager Bryan Heck added that the city does not have the capacity to sustain this pace of illegal immigration. “It’s taxing our infrastructure. It’s taxing public safety. It’s taxing our schools. It’s taxing health care…it’s taxing our housing,” Heck stated. Be they legal and/or illegal, the migrant surge has impacted cities and towns large and small from coast to coast. For example, according to the left-leaning Boston Globe: “Massachusetts has seen a surge of foreign migrants over the past year, many fleeing violence and political turmoil in their countries of origin.” Left-leaning CBS News said: “Nearly 4,000 non-citizens were granted asylum in Massachusetts in 2023, a 20% grant rate” according to the immigration tracking project by Syracuse University, Massachusetts…IINE [International Institute of New England] Senior Vice President Xan Weber says many Haitian immigrants are drawn to Massachusetts by word of mouth. “Massachusetts has the third largest Haitian diaspora in the country. So, we already have a sizeable and supportive strong community here. So, I think that’s one of the reasons why we are a destination state for many Haitians,” Weber said.
CBS reported that Dr. Geralde Gabeau is the executive director of the Immigrant Family Services institute. “Given the magnitude of the crisis, we need much more. And especially to work with all of the churches, with all of the CEOs, all of the partners to take responsibility for this. Because right now it feels like the state does something or no one else does anything,” Gabeau said.
Part I
1) So, in ‘blue’ states, ‘red’ states, and swing states, the U.S. housing crisis is reportedly being negatively impacted by a dramatic increase of migrants, be they here legally or not. Mayors from Democratic, Republican, or supposedly non-partisan led cities and towns are calling for more federal financial help, perhaps logically, since the federal government is supposed to be in charge of the border and immigration.
2) MHProNews has provided periodic updates on the obvious connection between the immigration/border issues and the U.S. housing crisis. The annual cost to governments – meaning taxpayers – is estimated to potentially be as much as $451 billion dollars a year. To put that into context, according to the U.S. Census Bureau in December 2023, the average single section manufactured home sold for $79,600. If the federal government had a secure border and spent that $451,000,000,000 on new single section manufactured homes, it would pay for about 5,864,759 new HUD Code single-sectional homes. 653,104 is the number of people who were experiencing homelessness during the HUD 2023 Point-in-Time (PIT) Count. Doing some more hypothetical math, 5,864,759 – 653,104 = 5,211,655. Hold that 5.2 million remaining dwellings in mind for a few moments.
3) According to Google’s AI Gemini: “The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) helps more than 4.3 million low-income families find affordable housing through its voucher programs, rental subsidies, and public housing. In 2022, 5.2 million people received Housing Choice Vouchers (HCV), also known as Section 8 vouchers, which is a type of HUD voucher. This number has remained relatively stable since 2011.” That means that the hypothetical number of single section manufactured homes remaining from the calculations in #2 above is about equal to the number of Americans who get Section 8 housing. That’s not a policy proposal, but it does illustrate just how much money is being spent on open borders in terms that make sense for affordable manufactured housing pros. Put differently, the risky-to-deadly scenario for border crossers, the flow of illegal drugs, weapons, and criminals/potential terrorists, plus the stunningly wasteful status quo is broadly harmful to many. The apparent exception is perhaps the business interests that want to use lower cost immigrants instead of hiring higher cost American citizens and legal immigrants.
4) Much of the political oxygen is being sucked up by the drama swirling around concerns that presumptive Democratic nominee for 2024, Joe Biden (D), is suffering from a significant slide in his mental acuity. In an apparent response to those Democrats who have said that deposed former President Donald Trump (R) should also be required to take a cognitive test, Trump recently issued an invitation for he and Biden to simultaneously take a cognitive test. Trump has also challenged Biden to play a round of golf, offered him 20 strokes, and said that if Biden won, Trump would donate a million dollars to the charity of Biden’s choice.
5) The left-leaning political site FiveThirtyEight (538) found that Biden is still favored to win, despite his poor debate performance. FiveThirtyEight found that Biden was favored to win the November presidential election “50 times out of 100,” whereas former President Donald Trump was favored to win the presidential election “49 times out of 100.” Biden admitted to a “crowd at Renaissance High School, Biden said he “sometimes” mixes up the names of people.” Biden mistakenly referred to Vice President Kamala Harris as Vice President Trump and referred to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky as “President Putin,” the Russian president.
6) Despite the relatively rosy forecast by FiveThirtyEight, Real Clear Politics (RCP) cited left-leaning publications with headlines like the following.
7) But the right-leaning Wall Street Journal said last week that if: “Biden drops out before the Democratic Party formally makes him its nominee, then Federal Election Commission rules dictate that no more than $2,000 of any campaign funds that he raised may be transferred to any other candidate, including Ms. Harris.” So, depending on the source, there are some $90 to 100 million dollars in the war chest that needs to wait until Biden is formally made the Democratic nominee when he could, in theory, step down, despite his repeatedly saying he has no intention to do so.
8) Besides the housing, labor, educational, and other government-costs social impacts of the migrant crisis, there are law enforcement and national security concerns too. Again, per RCP:
11) But many on the right are sounding cautionary notes, not to be overconfident. Some on the left are similarly saying that Democrats and the donor class are over-reacting.
12) With the Republican convention dead ahead, talk of an early virtual convention for Democrats that might be used to resolve the Biden at the top of their ticket concerns, and regardless the Democratic National Convention (DNC) set in Chicago for Monday, Aug 19, 2024 – Thursday, Aug 22, 2024. Much will be clarified in the next 5 weeks, including who Trump’s vice-presidential running mate will be (betting odds favor Senator J.D. Vance (OH-R), but several other names are reportedly being considered, including periodic mention of former Democrat Congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard). Whatever develops, the Daily Business News on MHProNews’ left-right headlines recap published typically 4 to 5 days weekly will provide insights, plus periodic reports like this one will shed additional light.
13) There is only one apparent step that could – in theory – rapidly reduce the demand for affordable housing in the U.S. faster than new HUD Code manufactured homes could be produced. That would be if Trump wins on November 5, 2024, and he actually and successfully managed to implement a widespread deportation. Such a move would doubtlessly result in a flurry of lawsuits of uncertain outcome, so it is far from clear how impactful that proposal by Trump might be.
16) The American Press Institute (API) stated: “There are many kinds of journalism, but at the heart of their constitutional responsibilities, journalists are in the business of monitoring and keeping a check on people and institutions in power.” API also said: “Journalists, valuing this function, often refer to this job as “watchdog” journalism. Reporters keep an eye over their communities, especially the actions of government leaders, in order to protect them.”
Part III (MHProNews’ traditional postscript placement) – Trump Assassination Attempt – Facts and Insights
Reasonably good polling have been described as snapshots of public sentiments in time, and so they are. News items, for better and for or worse, are also snapshots in time, and time will reveal much about what occurred yesterday evening in Butler, PA, said to be about an hour’s drive north of Pittsburg, PA. The following items will provide some foundation for the analysis that will follow.
1) The following item is from the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) and was one of the items found via Microsoft (Bing) Start page on the morning of 7.14.2024. More on that Microsoft Start Page will be provided in screen shots below. Note that the BBC understandably uses British English, which has some spelling differences from American English.

A dark and dangerous new chapter for American politics
Story by Anthony Zurcher – North America correspondent
A spray of bullets may have only grazed Donald Trump in Pennsylvania on Saturday night, but they killed one rally attendee and critically wounded two others.
They have also torn through the 2024 presidential campaign, damaging the social and cultural fabric of the nation. The illusion of security and safety in American politics – built over decades – has been dramatically shattered.
Trump received only minor injuries but it was close – a photograph by Doug Mills of the New York Times appears to show the streak of a bullet cutting through the air near the former president’s head.
Not since Ronald Reagan was shot by John Hinkley Jr in 1981 has there been such a dramatic act of violence directed against a president – or presidential candidate.
It harkens back to a darker time in US history, more than a half-century ago, when two Kennedy brothers – one a president and one a presidential candidate – were felled by assassin bullets. Civil rights leaders such as Medgar Evars, Martin Luther King Jr and Malcom X all also lost their lives in political violence.
Like today, the 1960s were marred by intense political polarisation and dysfunction, when a firearm and an individual willing to use it could change the course of history.
It is difficult to predict the impact Saturday’s events will have on America – and its political discourse. Already, there have been some bipartisan calls for a cooling of rhetoric and national unity.
Within hours of the incident, President Joe Biden – Trump’s likely opponent in November – appeared before cameras in Delaware to make a statement to the press.
“There is no place in America for this kind of violence. It’s sick,” he said. “We cannot be like this. We cannot condone this.”
The president later spoke by phone with the former president. He cut short his weekend at the beach and is returning to the White House late Saturday evening.
But the violence has also quickly filtered into the bare-knuckle partisan trench-warfare that has characterised American politics in recent decades. Some Republican politicians have laid the blame for the attack on Democrats who have employed dire rhetoric about the threat they say the former president poses to American democracy.
“The central premise of the Biden campaign is that President Donald Trump is an authoritarian fascist who must be stopped at all costs,” Ohio Senator JD Vance, who is reportedly on the shortlist to be Trump’s vice-presidential pick, posted on social media. “That rhetoric led directly to President Trump’s assassination attempt.”
Chris LaCivita, the Trump campaign manager, said that “leftist activists, Democratic donors and even Joe Biden” need to be held accountable at the ballot box in November for “disgusting remarks” that in his view led to Saturday’s attack.
Democrats may object, but many on the left used similar language to describe the culpability of right-wing rhetoric in the months before the 2011 near-fatal shooting of Congresswoman Gabby Giffords in Arizona.
The Pennsylvania violence will undoubtedly cast a long shadow over the Republican convention, which begins on Monday. Security protocols will be tightened, and the protests – and counter-protests – near the site could be accompanied by a new sense of foreboding.
…
Images of the former president, bloodied, with an upraised fist are sure to become a rallying point in Milwaukee. The Republican Party was already planning to make strength and rugged masculinity a central theme, and Saturday’s incident will give that a jolt of new energy.
“This is the fighter American needs!” Eric Trump wrote on social media, accompanied by a photograph of his father after the shooting.
The US Secret Service will also face intense scrutiny for its handling of security at the Trump rally. An individual with a high-powered rifle was able to come within firing distance of a major presidential candidate.
Speaker of the House Mike Johnson is promising that his chamber will conduct a full inquiry. Those investigations will take time. …”
Zurcher concludes his BBC report with a play off the headline, that: “A dark and dangerous new chapter for American politics,” but it is worth mentioning that an alternative headline has also been used for that same article: “A spray of bullets shatters nation’s illusion of security.”
3) From the left-leaning Associated Press (AP) was the following.
BUTLER, Pa. (AP) — At 6:02 pm Saturday, to the strains of “God Bless the U.S.A.,” former President Donald Trump took the stage at fairgrounds in Butler, Pennsylvania, waving at the cheering crowd and settling into his regular rally speech under a scorching midsummer sun.
A few short minutes later, Trump pointed to a projection of a chart that showed a spike in illegal border crossings under the man he’s running against, President Joe Biden. “That chart’s a couple of months old,” Trump told the crowd. “And if you want to see something really sad —”
That’s when the shots rang out, at least five. Trump clutched his ear as dark-suited Secret Service agents dashed toward him. He dropped to the ground as the agents yelled, “Get down!” The thousands of rallygoers packed into the field in front of him moved as one, dropping down as silence spread across the grass, punctuated only by an occasional scream.
Moments later, Trump stood as the Secret Service agents crowded around him, covering his body with their own. They tried to usher the former president offstage to his left as blood trickled from his ear. “Wait, wait, wait,” Trump said. He pumped his fist as the crowd cheered, and seemed to mouth the word “fight” before agents hustled him down the stairs and to a waiting black SUV. Trump pumped his fist one more time before getting inside.
The local district attorney said the shooter and one rallygoer were dead. The FBI early Sunday identified the shooter as Thomas Matthew Crooks, 20, of Bethel Park, Pennsylvania.
In a statement issued shortly after the attack, which officials say was an apparent assassination attempt, Trump’s campaign said he was “fine.”
…
He smiled and pointed at the crowd as they cheered him, waiting for the Lee Greenwood song to conclude before starting his remarks. “This is a big crowd,” Trump said. “This is a big, big beautiful crowd.”
After name-checking David McCormick, the Republican running against Pennsylvania’s Democratic Sen. Bob Casey, and promising to bring him on stage later in the rally, Trump turned to one of his favorite themes. “We have millions and millions of people in our country who should not be here,” he said. “Dangerous people.”
Then he directed the audience to the projected chart of border crossings.
After the shots rang out and Trump was hustled offstage, agents in black uniforms carrying rifles, the agency’s Counter-Assault team, flooded the stage. The crowd stayed down with the exception of one clutch of people standing near the left edge of the perimeter, near the sounds of gunfire.
…
Eventually, people began to trickle out. A small group of about a half-dozen stopped at the fenced area holding the media. “It’s all your fault!” they yelled.
Police and then the Secret Service ushered everyone out. An hour after the shooting the vast field was declared a crime scene, littered with empty plastic water bottles and soggy cardboard containers that once held cheese fries. ##

At what time did the shots ring out in Bulter PA aimed at President Trump?

13) On conservative media and right-leaning social media there are remarks that reflect the notion that much (not all) of the media and many on the left have stoked the notion for years that Trump is such a supposed threat to democracy that stopping, or evening killing him, was somehow okay. Now, some of those same voices on the left have condemned the assault on Trump’s life that resulted in two deaths and another (besides Trump) being wounded as unacceptable.
14) In the wake of the lawfare against Trump in 2023 and 2024, there has been a steady set of ‘bumps’ in polling and fundraising. Following the shooting last night, at least two more billionaires have come out and endorsed Trump, Bill Ackman (sorry, MHProNews are editorially critics not fans of Ackman) and centi-billionaire, and perhaps one of the richest men in the world and factory-built housing producer, Elon Musk.

“Most importantly, I want to extend my condolences to the family of the person at the Rally who was killed, and also to the family of another person that was badly injured”
I often say that photos of Trump are like renaissance paintings.
But on this awful evening for our country, the photos feel more… Biblical. The sunlight found Trump’s bloodied face as he fell to the ground, and produced this photo
16) MHProNews editorially observes that there may be days, weeks, months, years, or even decades pass before all that ought to be known about this incident is know. The assassination of President John F. Kennedy is now over 6 decades into the rear-view mirror. Per the JFK Library website: “Shortly after noon on November 22, 1963, President John F. Kennedy was assassinated as he rode in a motorcade through Dealey Plaza in downtown Dallas, Texas.” Much information has come out in dribs and drabs, an absolutely unacceptable piece of evidence of how little trust elements in the federal government has in the people that are supposed to be the masters of that government.
17) It routinely takes numbers of sources, often from across the left-right spectrum, to begin to get an accurate idea of what has occurred in a controversial event. It took Snopes, a left-leaning fact check site that left-leaning Facebook helps fund, some 7 years to admit that their initial take on Trump’s statement about the Charlottesville incident was mistaken. It was alleged Trump called neo-Nazis ‘very fine people,’ when he specifically condemned the neo-Nazis. 7 years before Snopes made the correction, perhaps better late than never, but still late. MHProNews rapidly addressed and debunked that, based on information known shortly after the event, based on simply looking at the full video statement, rather than an edited clip.

18) Something similar happened with respect to January 6. Trump specifically told the crowd to go peacefully and patriotically, but too many with bias, malice, or vincible ignorance made it seem like Trump sent his followers off to start a riot and purported insurrection. There are some falsehoods that crumble with some simple research. There are some truths that become evident with reasonably simple research. Which begs the question, in an information age, why is it that so many in media, big tech/social media hold such bias that they can’t tolerate a reasonably balanced account or diversity of views?
On Wednesday’s installment of his podcast “The Chuck Toddcast,” Todd began by calling out Biden for heavily implying during the 2020 presidential election that he intended to be a one-term president when he referred to himself as a “bridge” for Democrats.
“Everything that I’ve learned, it has made me want to rethink a lot of the Biden biography,” Todd said. “I still can’t believe he ran for president in the first place, given that his family was in crisis in 2018. You look at what has happened, I can’t believe he put his family through this.”
“And now looking at his behavior now in clinging to this, you know, I think the entire narrative on Joe Biden is going to change. That he was he’s always been everything has been about his ambition. And his ambition comes first,” Todd added.
20) It is expected that polling will shift again from what is shown in Part I. Time will tell.
21) As a disclosure, it is as the immigrant son of a Kennedy Democrat that this writer ponders analytically what politicos, media, and pundits say. My parents lived under genuine fascism, where Nazi troops and secret police operated, and Nazi propaganda was promulgated toward the Hungarian (Magyar) and other peoples that lived under their captor’s rule. While my parents didn’t talk a lot about World War II, what they said stuck and sunk deeply. They detested the communists, socialists, and fascists, because they knew firsthand the harms caused by those political-economic systems. My parents told their children, they knew they were getting propagandized during the war. But they didn’t realize how much propaganda they were getting until after the war was over for them, once they made it safely to Allied (U.S.) lines. Fastforward to our era. It is every more apparent that fascism and feudalism are rising in America and have been for decades. Just look at the proper definitions of those terms. Note left-leaning Glenn Greenwald’s apt observations that follow.
Left-leaning Wikipedia said: Corporatism became one of the main tenets of fascism, and Benito Mussolini’s fascist regime in Italy advocated the collective management of the economy by state officials by integrating large interest groups under the state, which is a combination of crony capitalism and state capitalism:…“Per the ‘father’ of Italian fascism, “Fascism should more appropriately be called Corporatism because it is a merger of state and corporate power” – Benito Mussolini. Note Mussolini, like Adolf Hitler, were both socialists. They were not from the political right; they were from the political left. Note: while some dispute this quotation, saying they can’t find a reference of the Italian leader saying this word for word, be that as it may, Mussolini’s writings at a minimum support such a possible paraphrase.
22) It is absolutely wrong that so much of the media, much of big tech/social media, are using the vast resources to suppress and twist inconvenient truths. All too often, agendas drive media coverage, or the lack of media coverage. For those thinkers in manufactured housing, it is apparent that much (not all) of the mainstream media miss facts and realities that even a modicum of objective media coverage would reveal. That’s not what the SPJ Code of Ethical conduct urges journalists. In fairness to reporters, they answer to editors and editors answers to their boss(es), so, a favored agenda can cause the truth to be obscured or even twisted in ways that are far from accurate or objective. This has been admitted to by some on the left and is pointed out by some on the right too. To learn more, see the linked and related reports. Because elections are approaching. Only the truth will set us free. ###
Definition of fascist per Benito Mussolini. Benito Mussolini Created the Word Fascism. He defined it as ‘the merging of the state and the corporation. This was the definition in Webster’s up until 1987 when a corporation bought Webster’s and changed it to exclude any mention of corporations. Adam McKay.
Our son has grown quite a bit since this 12.2019 photo. All on Capitol Hill were welcoming and interested in our manufactured housing industry related concerns. But Congressman Al Green’s office was tremendous in their hospitality. Our son’s hand is on a package that included the Constitution of the United States, bottled water, and other goodies.
