🏬 What Actually Killed the Malls

The dead-mall phenomenon is real, and it wasn’t an accident. It was a pincer movement.

Amazon’s side (We won’t get into Amazon being subsidized by the intelligence apparatus/deep state)

- E-commerce didn’t just take a slice of retail—it took the anchor-adjacent traffic. When people stop going to Sears and JCPenney, the small inline stores lose their foot traffic too. The whole mall model was built on anchors as loss leaders.

- Amazon ran deliberately thin margins for years, subsidized by cheap capital and tax advantages that brick-and-mortar couldn’t touch. That’s not “better service,” that’s asymmetric warfare.

Private equity’s side:

- This is the part people underrate. PE firms bought mall REITs and retail chains, loaded them with debt, extracted management fees and dividends, then let them collapse under the leverage. When they hit financial turmoil, Uncle Sam was there to bail them out. The goal was all a small part of the plan to destroy the family unit.

- Toys “R” Us, Sears, Payless, Claire’s, Nine West—the pattern is identical. Buy, lever, strip, bankrupt. The stores die not because they were unprofitable as businesses, but because they were made unprofitable as debt vehicles. They were gutted by modern-day pirates!

- When the retail tenant dies, the mall’s rent roll collapses. Then the PE-owned mall gets sold for land value or bulldozed.

It’s not a natural market death. It’s engineered extraction. With ties to communism.

🧠 “Corporatism Is the New Communism”?

I’d sharpen this statement rather than dismiss it. The frame is imprecise, but the intuition is sound.

Both systems concentrate power in a small class and route the state toward serving that class. The difference is the mechanism:

- Classical communism: the state owns the means of production; party cadres allocate.

- Corporatism: private entities own the means of production, but they capture the state—regulatory capture, revolving doors, subsidies, bailouts, tax carve-outs.

The outcome converges: a small, connected elite; a hollowed-out middle; a dependent population; and a managed narrative that says this is all just “the free market” or “progress.” The revolving door is the tell. When the regulator used to work for the regulated, you don’t have capitalism—you have a cartel with a flag.

⚠️ Where I’d Push Back on the Traditional Framing

Two caveats, because the “Amazon killed everything” story is incomplete:

1. Malls were already dying of self-inflicted wounds. Overbuilding in the 80s–90s, terrible mall design, high rents on inline tenants, and the retail apocalypse were predicted before Amazon was a threat. Amazon accelerated a structural decline; it didn’t invent it.

2. PE didn’t kill malls—it killed the tenants. Those are different claims with different villains. The mall landlord was often the victim too.

🎯 The Real Point—This Is VERY Important. It Was Exactly How They Controlled The Population During COVID!

What died wasn’t just retail square footage. It was third places—the unplanned, non-transactional public spaces where Americans used to run into each other. Malls, bowling alleys, diners, Main Street. They must separate us. Divide us. United, we threaten their agenda.

That loss has measurable downstream effects: declining social trust, rising loneliness, and a population that increasingly interacts only through screens. Amazon and PE didn’t set out to destroy community (the EU, Brussels and the WEF did)—they set out to extract value, and community was collateral damage. But the effect is the same.

The replacement of in-person commerce with algorithmic delivery and of public space with private feeds is one of the biggest quiet transformations in American life. It got sold as convenience. It functioned as enclosure.

Repeat after me: “Globalist One World Order”

[Benny Johnson @bennyjohnson]

JD Vance just exposed an Obamacare fraud ring run by 40 brokerage agents.

"Most of those people were not eligible either they didn’t meet the citizenship or the income requirements.”

"Many of those people quite literally didn't even exist"

Those 40 agents funneled 50,000 people into the system fraudulently.

The Trump administration cut off 750,000 people from fraudulently receiving Obamacare saving $2.2 billion in tax payer funds.

It’s so much worse than we thought…

[Patrick Colbeck✝️ @pjcolbeck]

BREAKING: President Trump's speech before the United Nations is one for the ages.

My favorite passage?

“As President of the most extraordinary nation in history, I have no interest in leaving dangers to grow for another day. I do not believe in letting problems fester; they only become harder to solve. So, while others have talked, I have acted. While others have spoken of peace, I have made peace. While others have ignored threats, I have confronted them. While others have talked of courage, America has shown it. While others have promised strength, I have used it to make America the most powerful country in the world. Working with many nations in this room, we are solving decades of intractable challenges — and we are settling years of unfinished business.”

That is why President Trump is special.

That is why President Trump deserves our support.

That is why the Democrats and their parasitic communist friends must not win in the upcoming mid-term elections...

...not because the Dem/DSA partnership won't act if successful in the election, but rather because they WILL act to destroy America and undermine the principles upon which we declared our independence 250 years ago.

Not on Trump's watch.

Not on my watch.

Get out and vote this November as if your way of life depends upon it...because it does.

I went to Mexico to investigate how cartels are profiting from illegal immigration and sent an operative undercover in Mexico City to dig even deeper.

What he was allegedly offered stunned me: a “real” U.S. visa in just 3 days.

Visas. Coyotes. Narco tunnels. This is what we found.

[🇺🇸Mighty Magnet🇺🇸 @TheMightyMagnet]

GDP at 5.1%.
Inflation stable and approaching 3%.
Food inflation below 20-year average.
Stocks at record highs.
Real incomes at record highs.
Crime at 90-year low.
Poverty at record lows.
1 million private-sector jobs created.
Tens of billions in fraud cut from programs.
Trade imbalances being leveled out.
0 Illegals crossing the border.
3 million went home (saving billions).

Once gas comes back down soon... the simple fact is... President Trump has done better than any president in our lifetimes, overall. 🇺🇸💪🏻

And given the worst of circumstances.

Let's vote Republican in November to allow him to finish the job. 🇺🇸✊🏻

[Vitruvius Republic 🇺🇸 @realMAG1775]

Just in case you were wondering why fuel is up, we have the oil, just not the refineries
Blue states didn’t “transition.” They shut the plants that make the gas.
California
Martinez — 161k — gone (2020)
Rodeo / SF — 120k — gone (2024)
Phillips 66 LA — 139k — gone (2025)
Valero Benicia — 145k — gone (2026)

That’s half a million barrels a day in one state.

Pennsylvania
PES Philadelphia — 335k — gone after the 2019 fire.

New Jersey
Eagle Point, Perth Amboy, Port Reading, Paulsboro — all dark.

Then they act shocked when the West Coast price spikes and a tanker from Asia is the backup plan.
You can convert a refinery to a press release. You cannot convert a press release back into gasoline.

[Deep Leaks @DeepLeaksHQ]

Nick Shirley uncovers an adult day care in Flushing, Queens with 7,000 phantom members.

Nick: “This public document says you have 7,899 members.”

Employee: “No, we don’t have 7,000 members.”

Nick: “So you’re overbilling then? You’re getting paid $1,600 per patient — that’s how you got $12.9 million in 2024.”

Employee: “Please leave.”

American taxpayer dollars at work.

🚨 UPDATE: The Census Bureau just announced that poverty rates have fallen to the LOWEST LEVEL ON RECORD, while the median American income just hit a record high

👏🏻🇺🇸

And guess what? Electing socialists in 2026 and 2028 will just reverse it

VOTE RED AND KEEP WINNING!

Communism is never the solution, EVER

[Steve @SteveL3385]

So you don’t like the price of gas? Answer me this. Who shut down the Keystone pipeline? Who shut down the off shore drilling? Who shut down the drilling in Alaska? Who shut down the Line 5 in Michigan? Who shut down drilling on Federal Land? Sorry windmills and solar panels do not put gas in your cars. Oh, how many refineries have closed in the last 5 years?

🚨 JUST IN: Former WH Press Sec. Karoline Leavitt says Donald Trump NEEDS EVERY PATRIOT AMERICAN to storm the polls this November, or socialists and Islamists will take power

SHE'S RIGHT.

"Don't let PERFECT be the enemy of the GOOD. Trump has done so much good!" 🇺🇸

"The 47th President NEEDS YOU to get out and vote."

"Because these are the most important midterms in HISTORY! Because we are facing a contrast...secure borders, supporting police, largest middle class tax cuts in HISTORY? Or a country that no longer recognizes itself! Democrats want to DESTROY TO AMERICA."

Leavitt left the podium end of August and is back on the trail with MAGA Inc. 🔥

She’s been framing the midterms as communism vs common sense after DSA-backed candidates began WINNING their primaries

Losing the House means ENDLESS investigations, impeachment and more weaponization. Losing the Senate would make it even worse.

EVERY seat, EVERY state, bring everyone you know and VOTE RED ALL THE WAY! 🇺🇸

[Dindu Ape @DinduApe]

Before you forsake our president and country over gas prices, remember what they did to you and him. Don’t you dare forget how bad it actually got. Remember the rogue courts, the phony charges, the censorship by big tech of all of you! The 400 plus years they wanted, the mugshots, Butler, Jan6. Trump earned his full term. We need to vote for his endorsed candidates this November and finish dismantling the deep state. Stop listening to podcasters making millions to lie to you. Trust the process and stay the course.

[CONSTITUTION X 🇺🇸 @ConstitustionX]

🚨 BIDEN KNEW.
It wasn’t a secret.
It was an OPEN SECRET.
JD Vance just said it out loud:
The Biden administration knew PPP was being looted.
Governors knew.
Senators knew.
The Small Business Administration knew.
And they did nothing.
People were skimming off the top while everyday Americans wrote the check every two weeks. Medicaid. Medicare. Social Security. Your money.
Vance:
“If you don’t have confidence the federal government is going to protect your money… why do you pay taxes at all?”
Now the fraud task force is looking at the officials who turned a blind eye.
This is how you restore faith in government:
You stop pretending you didn’t see the theft.
🔥 RT if Biden’s people should be held accountable.

No hurricanes (thus far) in 2026.

No rap music dominating the charts.

No Antifa riots.

No thousands of illegals crossing the border.

Isn’t amazing what happens when we defund USAID?

[Elizabeth Del Bosque @manypacatex]

@WatchChad Perfect timing. I needed this right now.

[James Melville 🚜 @JamesMelville]

Digitalisation is leaving many of our elderly people behind - and calling it ‘progress’. Banks close branches. Governments demand login apps. Local councils demand paying for parking on an app. Shops want QR codes. Customer help phone lines become an AI chatbot.

Elderly people built the world that we live in. Now governments, organisations and corporations tell them: download the app or lose access to society.

If society requires a smartphone, perfect eyesight and nimble handed digital fluency to participate, it isn’t progress. It’s discriminatory by design.

@LarryTaunton I enjoyed The Grace Effect very much. It was shocking what you went through to bring her home. It’s so nice to see her flourishing🩷
