Bloomberg is a notoriously staunch authoritarian nanny-stater who has implemented several social engineering projects and spearheads the Everytown For Gun Safety group, an anti-Second Amendment collective.
John Kerry:
The former Secretary of State under Obama reportedly wants a position that would address climate change, but could also potentially reprise his role as Secretary of State.
Kerry, a “Skull and Bones” Yale alumnus, has repeatedly violated the Logan Act in attempts to undermine Trump’s foreign policy with Iran by secretly meeting with Iranian officials to revive the scrapped 2015 Iran Nuclear Deal (JCPOA).
Susan Rice:
The former National Security Advisor under Obama would be considered for Secretary of State.
Rice was responsible for “unmasking” several Trump administration officials during the Obama administration’s Deep State surveillance of the Trump campaign for the debunked “Russia collusion” narrative. Rice had denied responsibility but the White House Counsel’s office identified her as the culprit.
Sally Yates:
The former Obama-era Deputy Attorney General is under consideration for Attorney General in Biden’s Cabinet.

New Type of Star Discovered

A star that pulsates on just one side has been discovered in the Milky Way about 1500 light-years from Earth .
It is the first of its kind to be found and scientists expect to find many more similar systems as technology to listen inside the beating hearts of stars improves .
“ What first caught my attention was the fact it was a chemically peculiar star , ” said co-author Dr. Simon Murphy from the Sydney Institute for Astronomy at the University of Sydney .
“ Stars like this are usually fairly rich with metals – but this is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of hot star.
” Dr. Murphy shared the find with international collaborators to discover others had started to study the star , known as HD74423 , which is about 1.7 times the mass of the Sun .

“ I ’ ve been looking for a star like this for nearly 40 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ one , ” said Professor Kurtz , who is the inaugural Hunstead Distinguished Visitor at the University of Sydney .
Stars that pulsate have been known in astronomy for a long time .

Now an international team , including researchers from the University of Sydney , has discovered a star that oscillates largely over one hemisphere .
The scientists have identified the cause of the unusual single-sided pulsation : the star is located in a binary star system with a red dwarf .
Its close companion distorts the oscillations with its gravitational pull .
The clue that led to its discovery came from citizen scientists poring over public data from NASA ’ s TESS satellite , which is hunting for planets around distant stars .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ , at less than two days , is so short that the larger star is being distorted into a tear-drop shape by the gravitational pull of the companion .

A star that pulsates on just one side has been discovered in the Milky Way about 1500 light-years from Earth.
It is the first of its kind to be found and scientists expect to find many more similar systems as technology to listen inside the beating hearts of stars improves.
“What first caught my attention was the fact it was a chemically peculiar star,” said co-author Dr. Simon Murphy from the Sydney Institute for Astronomy at the University of Sydney. “Stars like this are usually fairly rich with metals – but this is metal-poor, making it a rare type of hot star.”
Dr. Murphy shared the find with international collaborators to discover others had started to study the star, known as HD74423, which is about 1.7 times the mass of the Sun.
Together they have published their findings today in Nature Astronomy.
“We’ve known theoretically that stars like this should exist since the 1980s,” said co-author Professor Don Kurtz from the University of Central Lancashire in Britain.
“I’ve been looking for a star like this for nearly 40 years and now we have finally found one,” said Professor Kurtz, who is the inaugural Hunstead Distinguished Visitor at the University of Sydney.
Stars that pulsate have been known in astronomy for a long time. Our own Sun dances to its own rhythms. These rhythmic pulsations of the stellar surface occur in young and in old stars, and can have long or short periods, a wide range of strengths and different causes.
There is however one thing that all these stars had thus far in common: the oscillations were always visible on all sides of the star. Now an international team, including researchers from the University of Sydney, has discovered a star that oscillates largely over one hemisphere.
The scientists have identified the cause of the unusual single-sided pulsation: the star is located in a binary star system with a red dwarf. Its close companion distorts the oscillations with its gravitational pull. The clue that led to its discovery came from citizen scientists poring over public data from NASA’s TESS satellite, which is hunting for planets around distant stars.
The orbital period of the binary system, at less than two days, is so short that the larger star is being distorted into a tear-drop shape by the gravitational pull of the companion.
Professor Gerald Handler from the Nicolaus Copernicus Astronomical Centre in Poland and lead author said: “The exquisite data from the TESS satellite meant that we could observe variations in brightness due to the gravitational distortion of the star as well as the pulsations.”
To their surprise the team observed that the strength of the pulsations depended on the aspect angle under which the star was observed, and the corresponding orientation of the star within the binary. This means the pulsation strength varies with the same period as that of the binary.
“As the binary stars orbit each other we see different parts of the pulsating star,” said Dr. David Jones at the Instituto de Astrofisica de Canarias and co-author of the study. “Sometimes we see the side that points towards the companion star, and sometimes we see the outer face.”
This is how the astronomers could be certain that the pulsations were only found on one side of the star, with the tiny fluctuations in brightness always appearing in their observations when the same hemisphere of the star was pointed towards the telescope.
The discovery of the unusual behavior of the star was initially made by citizen scientists. These amateur astronomy sleuths painstakingly inspected the enormous amounts of data that TESS regularly supplies, as they search for new and interesting phenomena.

A prison riot reportedly broke out Sunday afternoon at an Italian prison in the city of Modena that has left six dead, according to the Italian newspaper Corriere di Bologna.
The riot, which started at around 2 pm local time, started when about 60 inmates decided to set the prison on fire in an attempted mass escape reportedly inspired by the coronavirus quarantine crackdown. Inmates were reportedly told that family members wouldn’t be allowed to visit during the quarantine (remember what happened in those Chinese prisons?). This left dozens furious and, in an overcrowded prison, that type of rage can spread quickly.
Inmates demands for more information about policies being put in place to suppress the virus certainly helped spark the riot, but local officials were careful to characterize the riot as something that happened “in addition” to the outbreak, not because of it, while critics noted longstanding issues like overcrowding contributed to the unrest.
Shortly after prisoners overwhelmed the guards, a contingent of police arrived, sparking a confrontation that led to an hours-long faceoff.
While six have been killed so far, more fatalities are expected, as dozens were badly wounded in the fighting, while others reportedly overdosed on medications like methadone and benzodiazepines as prisons apparently raided the prison hospital and stole all the methadone and Xanax they could find. Authorities insist that half of the six deaths so far could be attributed to overdoses, though that sounds…somewhat suspicious to us.
According to Corriere, the police intervention stopped 500 prisoners from escaping. On Italian twitter, reports that the 500 prisoners had escaped were being reported as fact.
We hope to learn more about the riots later in the day. But will this uprising inspire others across the locked-down north?

Having learned the downsides of open borders the hard way , the European Union does not want to take in the tens of thousands of refugees and asylum-seekers that are camping out on the Greece-Turkey border in search for ways to cross into Europe .

Other conditions included beefed-up controls of Turkey’s borders and a mechanism to resettle one Syrian refugee in the EU for every Syrian returned to Turkey from the Greek islands.

As civilization careens headlong into the nightmare scenario of the awakening reality of the coronavirus, one fact is abundantly clear today.
We cannot know the status of the outbreak if we do not know the status of the outbreak, meaning knowing the full extent of those with the coronavirus in your local area remains a mystery as long as test kits are in short supply.
Given the history of the media’s unrelenting attacks on the Trump administration, how can anyone truly know how the response is going?
Even after Vice President Mike Pence promised 1.5 million tests and President Trump has pushed an all hands on deck approach.
Especially during an election year when the left’s leading candidates are a Democratic socialist and a deteriorating senile career politician.

” Peter called the big stock market gains last Wednesday a bit of a “ relief rally ” after Joe Biden made a strong showing on Super Tuesday and it appears less likely that Bernie Sanders will win the Democratic Party nomination .
“ Even though people gave him a very small chance , if any chance at all of actually winning , the fact that he could win , because anything can happen if he was on the ballot , it would be disastrous for the economy and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ markets maybe started to price in some small probability of a Sanders victory , and today I think that ’ s been priced out .
I think his path to the White House is pretty much shut down , The establishment has coalesced around Biden .
Everybody is dropping out and endorsing him.
” Peter said Biden isn ’ t going to be good for the stock market either .
One of the big economic concerns about the coronavirus is the disruption of supply chains .
China is reportedly trying to incentivize people @ @ @ @ @ @ @ this result ins a “ second wave ” hit in China ?
Peter said he doesn ’ t really know the situation on the ground in China and he ’ s not a doctor , but as an economist , he thinks the central banks have jumped the shark .

I don ’ t think they have the correct remedy for this disease .
I think the Fed , in particular , made a mistake with the rate cut .
I think they @ @ @ @ @ @ @ mistakes .

And I think even governments to the extent that they feel the need to artificially stimulate the economy , you know , sometimes things go wrong .

“ Remember , the US market was substantially overvalued before anybody heard the word coronavirus .
So , the market needs to come down .
So , it was going to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the excuse , but the market is going to go down.
” Meanwhile , everybody is trying to figure out what the government can do to stimulate the economy .
Peter said he ’ s heard people say it needs to get cash in people ’ s pockets .

All it can do is take cash from one person ’ s pocket and put it into somebody else ’ s pocket .
That doesn ’ t stimulate the economy .

Now that both OPEC+ and OPEC no longer exist, and it’s a free-for-all of “every oil producer for themselves” and which Goldman described as return to “the playbook of the New Oil Order, with low cost producers increasing supply from their spare capacity to force higher cost producers to reduce output”, the key question is just how long can the world’s three biggest producers – shale, Russia and Saudi Arabia…
… sustain a scorched-earth price war that keep oil prices around $30 (or even lower).
While we hope to get an answer on both Saudi and US shale longevity shortly, and once the market reprices shale junk bonds sharply lower, we expect the US shale patch to soon become a ghost town as money-losing US producers will not be solvent with oil below $30, assuring that millions in supply will soon be pulled from the market, moments ago we got the answer as far as Russia is concerned, when its Finance Ministry said on Monday that the country could weather oil prices of $25 to 30$ per barrel for between six and 10 years.

Boston Federal Reserve President Eric Rosengren has suggested that Congress allow the Federal Reserve to add assets of private companies to the Fed’s already large balance sheet.

Saudi Arabia has announced it will slash its official selling prices for crude by between $4 and $8 per barrel, Arab News reports, to be in effect from April when the current production cuts expire.

The announcement pressured already severely hurt benchmarks after the failed meeting of OPEC+ on Friday when Russia refused to take part in further cuts that would have reduced global oil production by a total 3.6 million bpd.
“As from 1 April we are starting to work without minding the quotas or reductions which were in place earlier,” Energy Minister Alexander Novak said on Friday, adding “but this does not mean that each country would not monitor and analyze market developments.”
“We are likely to see the lowest oil prices of the past 20 years in the next quarter,” Arab News’ Frank Kane quoted an IHS Markit analyst as saying.
This is very likely to happen, indeed: at the time of writing, Brent crude was trading close to $32 a barrel, with West Texas Intermediate at below $29 a barrel, with more space to fall as coronavirus-fueled worry about the global economy deepens amid news about new cases, a lockdown for 16 million people in northern Italy and reports of the first case in Washington D.C.
“I don’t think this was premeditated but Saudi Arabia has clearly swung quickly into action to put the Russians under pressure,” Robin Mills, head of consultancy Qamar, told Arab News. “But the Russians, with low debt and a flexible exchange rate, can cope with a few months of low prices.”

A DC priest who shook the hands of 500 worshippers during communion has announced he’s contracted coronavirus.
“BREAKING: A D.C. priest has Coronavirus. He offered communion and shook hands with more than 500 worshippers last week and on February 24th,” tweeted ABC7’s Sam Sweeney.
“All worshippers who visited the Christ Church in Georgetown must self-quarantine. Church is cancelled for the first time since the 1800’s.”

The hand shaking took place despite many other Catholic churches changing their worshipping practices in an effort to stop the spread of the virus.
USA Today reports that at the Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception, “Priests have started asking worshippers not to shake hands at the sign of peace, which occurs around midway through the Catholic service. Most Masses here normally don’t offer wine during communion, but those that do are suspending the use of the shared chalices for now.”
Such precautions are not being followed at other religious sites in regions impacted by the coronavirus.
Videos of two men licking holy shrines in Iran went viral last week, with one individual seen licking the Masumeh shrine in Qom, while saying, “I’m not scared of coronavirus.”
In another video, a man states he plans to lick the shrine “so the disease can go inside my body and others can visit it with no anxiety.”
The men face up to two years in jail in addition to 74 lashes.
