In a letter addressed to President Donald Trump’s border czar, Tom Homan, residents of Queens, New York, are pleading for federal intervention to address a surge in crime and homelessness along Roosevelt Avenue. The issue has plagued the communities of Corona, Jackson Heights and Elmhurst for over a year, with local leaders and activists claiming that state and city authorities have been unable to provide adequate solutions.
The letter, penned by former Democratic state Sen. Hiram Monserrate and Mauricio Zamora of the community group Neighbors of the America Triangle, highlights the deteriorating conditions in the Roosevelt Avenue corridor. The area has faced an influx of homeless migrants, leading to a range of criminal activities, including drug dealing, harassment, and theft, as well as lesser crimes such as public urination and littering.
Monserrate emphasized the severity of the situation during a press conference.
“Over the past seven months, our community has risen up to confront a wave of lawlessness that landed here about a year and a half ago,” he stated. “This should not be happening anywhere in America, much less Queens County.” (Related: Homeless crisis in America GETTING WORSE as government continues to spend hundreds of billions on foreign aid.)

At Last, a Company With Integrity in the Gold IRA Industry
For several years, I’ve been vetting out precious metals companies in search of the best. I believe in gold and silver but it’s hard to find integrity in the Gold IRA industry. The vast majority operate with shady tactics and gigantic spreads that take advantage of Americans who simply want to protect their life’s savings.
I’ve found a handful that I like and I’ve worked with some of them. By no means would I “unrecommend” them because, again, I vetted them out and found them to be above the fold. Unfortunately, it isn’t hard to be better than the rest when the rest are so darn awful.
After years of searching, I finally found a company that truly operates with integrity. Augusta Precious Metals has three important attributes that set them far above the competition:
- Non-Commissioned Sales Team: I cannot stress how important and unique this is. With just about every other company in the Gold IRA industry, the sales teams make commission from every account they open. This means they steer their clients toward the gold and silver products with the highest commission. With Augusta Precious Metals, the team is solely focused on putting the best gold and silver for their clients into their IRA. They get paid to serve the best interests of the Gold IRA client, NOT their own commission pay.
- Incredibly Low Fees: Most Americans would be shocked if they knew the spread other Gold IRA companies charge. Augusta charges just 5% versus up to 45% elsewhere.
- No Pressure, No Gimmicks: There’s an understanding among most in the Gold IRA industry that fear and pressure is the way to go. Augusta Precious Metals takes a sober approach when working with clients because they hold integrity in the highest possible regard. This is why they don’t offer gimmicks like “free” or “bonus” silver. It’s also why they do not apply pressure tactics to get quick sales. Their educational and transparent approach to doing business is exceedingly rare in the Gold IRA industry.
