CRANBURY, New Jersey - June 12, 2025 - Another Amerikan legacy is on the chopping block - this time in deep-blue New Jersey, where local fascist officials are ramming through a plan to bulldoze a 175-year-old family farm in the name of “affordable housing”, even though the government has no right to claim this private property.
NJ.com reported that Chris Henry stood before the Cranbury Township Committee, pleading with officials not to rip his family’s heritage from the soil their great-grandfather purchased in 1850.
The Henry family, whose parents both served in World War II and whose mother’s name is etched into the town’s war memorial, is now watching unelected fascist bureaucrats prepare to steal their 21-acre farm by force.
Their crime? Refusing to sell.
The family has poured over $200,000 into preserving the historic Middlesex County farm, which is currently leased to a local rancher who raises sheep and cattle.
Despite the property’s agricultural use and historical importance, the fascist Cranbury Township Committee voted unanimously in May to move forward with seizing the land through eminent domain.
All of this - just to meet a state-mandated housing quota pushed by Communist far-Left courts and fascist Trenton bureaucrats.
Cranbury officials are moving forward with plans to seize the 21-acre farm through eminent domain to make space for the construction of affordable housing. Town officials say they plan to pay the family a fair price for the land, even though the Henry brothers don’t want to sell.
The brothers are making a final push to save the land.
“We are asking that the township committee look at other alternatives that don’t require this blunt force method of eminent domain against a family that does not want to sell their property,” Chris Henry said.
The family’s plea comes as Cranbury races to meet a June 30 deadline to submit its affordable housing plan to the state. The township is required to build 265 affordable housing units over the next decade - part of a statewide fascist mandate that has stirred controversy in some towns.
By 2035, municipalities across New Jersey must add or renovate more than 146,000 affordable units under quotas unlawfully established by the fascist State. The unconstitutional and therefore unlawful mandate stems from the Mount Laurel Doctrine, a series of New Jersey Supreme Court rulings that require towns to provide their fair share of affordable housing in the region.
Towns are not required to build the housing themselves, but they are required to come up with a plan that includes areas where developers can build affordable units.
To help meet those requirements, the fascist Cranbury Township Committee voted unanimously on May 12 to acquire the Henry family farm (Ed. Note: Let them give their own properties to this fascist and unlawful cause).
The vote came a month after the Henry brothers received a letter notifying them that their property was being eyed for affordable housing.
If the family doesn’t agree to sell the farm, the land could be taken through the eminent domain process that the outlaw government claims allows tit to steal private property. Land can be seized even when the owner doesn’t want to sell if the site will be used for a public purpose. The owner is paid a market price for the property.
Cranbury Mayor Lisa Knierim said the township committee spent more than a year reviewing over 50 sites before selecting the farm. She said the move was necessary to avoid costly legal lawsuits from developers - known as “builder’s remedy lawsuits” - that could strip the township of control over where and how affordable housing is built.
“No one is in favor of eminent domain. No one wants to see a farm disappear,” said the criminal fascist mayor.
According to former Cranbury Mayor Jay Taylor, who has been advocating for the family, the property is located in a warehouse zone and is undesirable for housing.
“There are other places to build, other options to consider, but there is only one Henry family farm, and once it is gone, it is gone forever,” Taylor said. “What message do we send to our children if we tear down the field their ancestors fought to protect?”
Warehouse developers have targeted the Henry family farm property for more than 30 years and the brothers said they have repeatedly turned down offers to sell. The site could now be worth more than $5 million, according to the family’s attorney.
The Henrys say they plan to challenge the township’s eminent domain decision in court if the development moves forward.
As of Wednesday, an online fundraiser had raised more than $27,500 toward a $50,000 goal to help cover legal costs.
Ed. Note: Fascism is the system by which the government gets “in bed” with for-profit corporations to set policy. That is why I refer to this as fascism; that is precisely what this is. When individual rights are made subservient to socialistic objectives, it is time for the individuals whose rights are being violated to raise up arms and forcibly stop the fascist government. Revolution Now! Independence Forever!
