You Will Not Believe Why This Deep Blue County Is Evicting Condo Residents
Issues & Insights ^ | 23 Feb, 2026 | I & I Editorial Board

This is a truly Bizarro World story out of deep blue Prince George’s County, Md.

Back in December, some 100 families living in the Marylander Condominiums complex were told they would have to leave their homes because the building was deemed “unfit for human habitation.”

Last week, a Maryland judge signed a final eviction notice, which could leave many of these families homeless.

Why?

Turns out that the complex has been besieged for years by a nearby homeless encampment that is “a haven for gangs, drugs, and prostitutes” and has “vaporized property values and caused millions in damage, scaring away the banks needed to finance repair,” the Washington Free Beacon reports.

But, instead of dealing with the vagrants, the county told residents to “have compassion” for them, while city officials insist that they won’t “criminalize the unhoused.”

Then, after some of these “unhoused” wrecked the building’s boiler and cut off the heat supply this winter, the county decided to evict … the residents.

Who would do such a thing? Well, would it surprise you that everyone on the Prince George’s County Council is a Democrat, and the county voted 86% for Kamala Harris in 2024?

This is the kind of warmth-of-collectivism style of government Democrats provide – wherever and whenever they control the levers of power.

I’m also a PRMd resident.

It is also known that a certain neighboring state buses their homeless here because the “benefits” are so much better.

Hyattsville? Has already long been a dump and coming soon to Arlington and Alexandria, Virginia first. Sell your condos and rental properties now.

In 1861, the author of the Maryland state song thought that the Republican President in office was a tyrant. In 2026, Marylanders think that the Republican President in office is a tyrant.

The more things change, the more they stay the same thing.

Oh it is bad, the state has been moving judges around and a low-income housing complex was just forced through the court by one of the “roaming judges” now forcing the building of the structure in a remote conservative county where there are no jobs. The judge dismissed the county objections, take one guess the gender and racial makeup of the judge.

Make that make sense, move more homeless where thee is even less opportunity to work and even less infrastructure to support them, right in the middle of single-family homes. This stuff is intentional.

I’m glad we moved out of PG County in 2021. It’s hopelessly socialist.

If 86% are Kamalites, look for sympathy elsewhere. I wouldn’t lend money for repairs, either.

Back in December, some 100 families living in the Marylander Condominiums complex were told they would have to leave their homes because the building was deemed “unfit for human habitation.”

Why would these people who OWN condominiums deserve compasion or have their PROPERTY protected by evicting the drug abusing squatters?

They are rich, productive property owners.

They can buy property elsewhere, where they can pay higher taxes to the state.

Now the State can buy the property cheap or take it for delinquent taxes, pay for repairs and improvements and use it for low income housing for the very people that made it “unfit for human habitation”in the first place.

A fun future TV show:

In a near-future city where the justice system is overwhelmed, a new “Fast-Track” law allows private recovery agents to collect bounties on unhoused individuals who have outstanding warrants for minor or major crimes.

Unlike traditional bounty hunters who wait for a skip, the Homeless Hunters are “proactive,” scouring tent cities and abandoned tunnels to find “hidden” fugitives for a quick payday.

Main Characters

Jax “The Hound” Miller: A cynical former detective who lost his job and his home before turning to hunting to survive. He knows the streets better than anyone because he used to live on them.

Echo: A high-tech “spotter” who uses illegal drone feeds and facial recognition to track targets through the urban jungle.

Detective Sarah Vance: The “by-the-book” foil who believes Jax’s team is exploiting the vulnerable, setting up a recurring moral conflict.

Series Plot Points

The High-Value Target: The pilot follows the team as they hunt a “ghost”—a man with a massive bounty who has disappeared into the city’s vast underground sewer network.

The Ethical Twist: Jax realizes one of his targets is actually an undercover cop whose precinct “burned” his identity to get him out of the way.

The Rivalry: A ruthless corporate-backed hunting firm enters the “market,” using lethal force and high-end gear, forcing Jax to decide if he’s a hunter or a protector.

The Survival Game: In a mid-season finale, the hunters become the hunted when a group of street-dwellers, led by a former special ops veteran, traps the team in a “kill zone”.

The DemonKKKrats are evicting the condo owners and getting cheap ownership of the condos by condemning them because they let gangs, drugs, and prostitutes ruin the property value and cause millions in condo damage. I would say that Prince George County is liable for $millions because of their neglect. $Millions!!!
