Request for Information (RFI) – Weekly SITREP
I am going to make this a weekly post so that we can use this as a place to make any reports on unusual activity or localized hotspots of trouble. We did this a few times during COVID (here, here, here, and here) but I figured that, as our conditions continue to degrade around the country, it would be useful to bring this back as a regularly recurring topic of discussion.

General Location: Upper New England
Food Price / Shortages: Elevated/None
Fuel Prices / Shortages: $3.25 Reg/None
Unusual Military Movement:
Transportation unit (semi rigs) Maine ARNG has been out mid week driving in convoy with empty trailers. No further info.
Civil Unrest / Crime:
The alien invasion has been leading to a crime wave in the region and government policy changes designed to conceal the problem from the general public. Illegals working for the cartels have established safehouses for the purposes of drug and human trafficking. Illegals operating out of these locations have been tasked with picking up other invaders crossing illegally from Canada in remote areas. The illegals are operating uninsured/unregistered autos and are driving without licenses. There have been 2 major mass shooting events involving innocent parties and suspected illegals operating stolen automobiles. That activity has been concentrated in and near the cities of Saco/Biddeford in the declared sanctuary Cumberland County Maine. In response to this, the Soros DA in Cumberland County has announced that her office will no longer prosecute any cases of driving uninsured, uninspected, unlicensed, unregistered, etc. The domestic homeless population in Maine are also concentrated in this jurisdiction and are frequent offenders of this type of infraction.

Absolute insanity to our north. Thanks for the report!
I’ll piggyback off the crime segment Mike wrote about. There has been a massive incursion of Chinese funded and managed, illegal marijuana grow houses set up in rural areas of Maine. The numbers are in the hundreds. County sheriffs and local police have been key in identifying and raiding these. Few news outlets are covering this with the notable exception of The Maine Wire. The state govt has been strangely quiet about these operations. A source told me that the cigarettes they have found on the Chinese males at these grow houses are the same ones issued to Chinese military. I cannot verify this.

Interesting Local News / Events:
Public Service Interruptions: AT&T still spotty in some areas. Some disruption to businesses who rely heavily on network connections
Changes in Patterns of Life: n/a
Any additional observations or comments: DHS has set up small, nondescript license plate reader trailers left on shoulders of I-10 near (approx 8 miles) from AL/FL border to presumably capture info on vehicles entering/leaving state, likely fed to Fusiin centers/DHS. Trailers are white, no obvious markings on body w/small opening upper right with laser aperture on front (hidden slightly) with U.S. Government license plates on back Marked “DHS XXX”
Nice spotting of the DHS surveillance devices!
Changes in patterns of life/Law enforcement:
The ratio of unmarked cars to marked cars has increased. It’s roughly now a 4 or 5 to 1 ratio, with the unmarked being the greater number. Not sure which agency those cars are for. Before, it was 1 to 1 if you even saw them. This is in a rural, red PA county.
Interesting local event:
Does anyone remember the Chinese I brought up at the range before? Well, there are some more Chinese here. They were in the local town yesterday taking photos with nice, big cameras. However, the weather has been crummy. Fog. Rain. etc. I was noticing them with their cameras, so they snapped a picture of me and pointed the lens right at me.
The Chinese weren’t the same as were at the range, and they were all slender in build. In a physical confrontation they probably wouldn’t last even a minute, tbh. However we all know weapons are an equalizer.
General sentiment:
The people who are pumped for Trump are really fired up, and rightfully so. Their positivity is a good thing. The only ones supporting Biden are former front platers (New Yorkers and New Jerseyans) who moved here and have money. Those tend to be liberal boomers/older Gen X.
No one under 45 to 50 years is supporting democrats, Biden, etc. There are lefties in this area -skittles flags on businesses and hipster establishments are indicators – but as has been pointed out, they hate the neoliberal order as well.
Crime:
Listening to the scanner, nothing particularly unusual. There have been an increase in homeless people and vagrants. I haven’t seen so much as illegals here, but my time of day pattern has changed lately so that would have an effect on what is seen or not seen.
NG:
They have been out an about with their trucks a bit lately, but other than that, nothing particular special.
