A WORLD GONE MAD
Trump’s Homeless Plan? Hide the Bodies. Out of Sight.
What if solving homelessness meant hiding it?
In this episode of A World Gone Mad, I break down a new federal move that looks more like a political stage play than a solution. It’s not about housing. It’s not about services. It’s about erasure — and the incentives behind it are as disturbing as the strategy itself.
There’s a plan being rolled out with brutal precision, and if you think it sounds like satire, just wait until you hear who’s in charge. Compassion is out. Optics are everything. And once again, the most vulnerable are being weaponized for political gain.
Later in this episode, I take a hard swerve into the back alley where reason goes to die — with this week’s segment of News from the Edge of Sanity.
It’s a triple-header of unfiltered absurdity, featuring government failure, bad decisions, and one of the weirdest TSA discoveries you’ll ever hear. No spoilers — but this segment might top anything I’ve covered all month.
If you think the country’s lost control, you’re right — but the details are somehow dumber, darker, and more jaw-dropping than you’re imagining.
So wherever you are — stuck in traffic, walking off stress, or just hiding from the world in a bathroom stall — thanks for hitting play. This one’s worth hearing to the end.

This is a World Gone man. This is a World Gone man. Man, man, man, man. This is a World Gone man. I'm Jeff Allen Wolfe.
Speaker 1:If you're listening to this, congratulations. You've survived another round of American Roulette, where the prize is chronic stress and the rules change hourly. At this point, our national mood swings faster than gas prices before a holiday, and the only thing more chaotic than the headlines is how many Republicans are still pretending this is all totally normal. So, whenever you're listening, wherever you are, on a walk in your car or hiding in the bathroom for five minutes apiece, thanks for showing up and stick around, because I've also got another segment of news from the edge of sanity coming up very shortly. All right, let's get into it, because while the news spirals out like it's trying to break orbit, someone has to name what the hell is actually happening.
Speaker 1:Here we go Trump's clean cities plan Bury the crisis, not fix it. Trump's not fixing homelessness, he's staging a cleanup for the cameras. What just happened? Well, on July 24th, donald J Photo-Op Trump signed an executive order demanding states and cities clear out homeless encampments. Not fund housing, not support mental health, just sweep it away. Make the crisis vanish from sight. Cities that bring the hammer, get federal rewards, cities that try compassion left to rot, and the new sheriff in town, pam Bondi, who's now tasked with gutting legal protections despite not being qualified to run a lunch counter, let alone national homelessness policy.
Speaker 1:At this point, trump's executive order isn't a solution. It's a street sweeper, dragging human lives out of sight so the suburbs don't feel uncomfortable. Trump's not fixing the crisis. He's staging a cleanup for voters who think poverty is an eyesore. Yes, the camps are bad. They're unsafe, they're unsanitary and a symptom of a system that's failed from top to bottom. But what Trump's doing isn't solving the crisis. But what Trump's doing isn't solving the crisis. It's relocating it to the shadows. And where's the crackdown landing hardest? California, la, sacramento, San Diego, already clearing encampments like they're prepping for the Olympics, not a humanitarian crisis. Oregon, in bend, they cleared out a homeless camp in the actual forest, because apparently even the woods aren't zoned for poverty anymore. Yes, you could sleep under a pine tree, but not if you're broke.
Speaker 1:Washington, nevada, arizona, texas, pick your flavor Liberal guilt, desert indifference or political theater. The sweep is on and the optics are everything. There's no funding for shelter beds, no plan for services, no roadmap out of poverty, just force optics and federal cash tied to how brutally you treat your most vulnerable citizens. This isn't leadership, it's cosmetic fascism. Sweep the streets, ditch the bodies, sell it as progress. That's the plan. And, worst of all, the more brutal you get, the more money you're handed.
Speaker 1:Trump's turned homelessness into a televised game show. It's now time for sweep the streets and win a grant. That's where we are. Punishment equals policy, visibility equals failure and compassion. Well, that never made it past the first draft, so we just walked through a federal plan that treats homelessness like a visibility problem, not a crisis to solve, but an inconvenience to hide. And if you're thinking well, jeff, surely that's the peak of the madness? Oh, no, that was just the overture. Now it's time to swerve off the highway of institutional dysfunction and straight into the back alley, where reason goes to die.
Speaker 1:These aren't the stories leading the news. They're the ones quietly chewing drywall in the corner while democracy files a restraining order. It's time for News from the Edge of Sanity, where reality staggers, the headlines sweat and the circus doesn't even pretend to pack up anymore. News from the Edge of Sanity featuring turtles, rats and bees. Seriously, a woman walks into an airport and no, this isn't the setup to a bar joke in a different location. She's at Miami International boarding a flight to New York, but something was wrong. Something was moving and it wasn't her luggage. Something was moving and it wasn't her luggage. Tsa agents noticed unusual movement during her security body screening and a closer inspection revealed she had baby turtles hidden in her bra. That's not exactly standard carry-on. She was busted by TSA and I do not regret saying that TSA tried to keep abreast of the situation and yes, I'm milking this story. Okay, jeff, stop. Officials turned the case over to US Fish and Wildlife and while the turtles were reportedly unharmed, the woman could face charges for smuggling protected wildlife, because when your undergarments become a terrarium, you're not flying coach, you just become grounded in more ways than one. She definitely got busted in a most unusual way, you know, and I'm still waiting to hear about the last 12,000 illegal guns that somehow made it through TSA security.
Speaker 1:Okay, from turtle trafficking in a bra to rats undermining nuclear readiness Because when the rodents outnumber the rocket scientists, you know sanity has officially gone AWOL. Thousands of rats have declared war on a US nuclear missile base and let's just say it's not looking good for the humans At Minot Base in North Dakota, where we keep nukes, bombers and the illusion of control, officials are facing an invasion not by foreign powers, but by ground squirrels Thousands of them. They're called DAC rats and they're not just running around, they're tunneling, chewing and claiming territory like they've read the Geneva Conventions and chosen violence. And here's the kicker they outnumber the human population. Yes, the rats outnumber the people at a nuclear weapons facility, because when it comes to national security, nothing says preparedness. Like thousands of ground squirrels building condos under your ICBMs, officials have tried traps, poisons, deterrents, but nothing's working. The DAC rats are chewing through military-grade insulation like it's movie theater popcorn. They're basically they've turned a global strike command into Chuck E Cheese with warheads. And while we spend billions on missile defense systems that can detect a rogue satellite 30,000 miles away, we somehow can't stop a squirrel from chewing through an electrical wire. In North Dakota, we're not losing the war on sanity. We're getting outmaneuvered by rodents.
Speaker 1:And finally, From turtles in bras and rats under missiles, raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens, brown paper packages tied up with strings, these are a few of our favorite things, until a bee-pocalypse broke out on a main highway and turned I-95 into the Hunger Games with honey. This is definitely news from the edge of sanity. A semi-truck hauling 15 million honeybees flipped over an I-95 in Maine, unleashed a storm, swarmed so thick it looked like a deleted scene from Mad Max Fury Hive. It looked like a deleted scene from Mad Max Fury Hive. State police and local beekeepers were called in. One officer got stung over a hundred times, flailing like a man thrown into a blender full of hornets, as if the air itself turned against him. His body armor, you know, may have stopped bullets, but it was useless against bees. Emergency crews had to warn drivers stay in your vehicles, windows up, no shit. Thank you everyone for stating the obvious, because nothing says welcome to maine like getting ambushed by 15 million bees in a high-speed produce crash straight out of a Nicolas Cage movie sequel, called literally your face off.
Speaker 1:And while we're still debating climate change, ecological collapse and infrastructure decay, an entire colony of stinging chaos just took over a major highway on a random Thursday. 15 million bees in I-95. And we're not just losing control, we're pollinating the apocalypse. That was your news from the Edge of Sanity. It's now a regular segment on my podcast on Fridays is your news from the edge of sanity. It's now a regular segment on my podcast on Fridays. A friendly reminder that while the headlines are terrifying, the sidelines are completely unhinged. I'm not saying the world is disturbed, but it just ate glue and licked the wall socket.

Speaker 1:This has been A World Gone Mad. I'm Jeff Alan Wolfe. I'll be back Monday because I have a microphone, a half-eaten burrito and, unless someone here changes the Wi-Fi password, I'll be good to go. Until then, stay grounded, stay skeptical and if all else fails, stay hopeful. There is chaos in the world, can't you see? Stay hopeful. This is a world gone mad.
