newswars--2020-06-25--Trump Slams BLM Leader: This Is Treason, Sedition, Insurrection!

In what is sure to elevate race tension to ’ 12 ’ ( since they are already at ’ 11 ’ ) , President Trump has responded to comments from the BLM movement ’ s leader earlier in the week : Trump ’ s comment follow comments by Hawk Newsome – who chairs Black Lives Matter of Greater New York argued that because violence and rioting appeared to be getting the point across more effectively , those efforts were justifiable .
A tense exchange with Fox ’ s Martha MacCallum lays out the details ( and likely triggered Trump ) @ @ @ @ @ @ @ United States had been “ built upon violence , ” citing the American Revolution and arguing that American diplomacy largely consisted of blowing up other countries and replacing their leaders with leaders we liked better .
MacCallum responded : “ The only reason I posed that first question to you the way that I did , I watched you talking on a bunch of different interviews today and you said , ‘ Burn it down.
’ You said it , ‘ Burn it down , it ’ s time.
’ So that makes @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it down.
” This came on the heels of comments from another BLM co-founder earlier in the week .
As we detailed earlier in the week , while massive protests continue to rage across the country ( and beyond ) in the name of George Floyd , Black Lives Matter co-founder Patrisse Cullors admitted during a Friday night interview with CNN that “ our goal is to get Trump out.
” Cullors , who described BLM organizers in 2015 as “ trained Marxists , ” compared Trump to Hitler after refusing to meet @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and Customs Enforcement ( ICE ) as the Gestapo , told CNN ‘ s Jake Tapper ( via Breitbart ‘ s Josh Caplan ) : JAKE TAPPER : I ’ ve heard a lot of criticism of former Vice President Joe Biden from civil rights activists .
The election , obviously , will be a choice .
How do you think Biden matches up compared to President Trump when it comes to these issues that are important to you ?
PATRISSE CULLORS : Trump not only needs to not be in office in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Trump needs to be out of office .
He is not fit for office .
And so what we are going to push for is a move to get Trump out .
While we ’ re also going to continue to push and pressure vice president Joe Biden around his policies and relationship to policing and criminalization .
That ’ s going to be important .
But our goal is to get Trump out .
In 2015 , Cullors said that BLM would take “ any opportunity we have to shut down a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ when he said ( and was punished with an advertiser walkout from the ‘ cancel ’ crew at Sleeping Giants ) that Black Lives Matter is now a political party ?

In what is sure to elevate race tension to ’12’ (since they are already at ’11’), President Trump has responded to comments from the BLM movement’s leader earlier in the week:
Black Lives Matter leader states, “If U.S. doesn’t give us what we want, then we will burn down this system and replace it”. This is Treason, Sedition, Insurrection! — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) June 25, 2020
Trump’s comment follow comments by Hawk Newsome – who chairs Black Lives Matter of Greater New York argued that because violence and rioting appeared to be getting the point across more effectively, those efforts were justifiable.
A tense exchange with Fox’s Martha MacCallum lays out the details (and likely triggered Trump):
MacCallum began by quoting Newsome as saying that he wanted to “shove legislation down people’s throats,” and then asked him, “What exactly is it that you hope to achieve through violence?”
Newsome responded by claiming that the United States had been “built upon violence,” citing the American Revolution and arguing that American diplomacy largely consisted of blowing up other countries and replacing their leaders with leaders we liked better.
MacCallum responded: “The only reason I posed that first question to you the way that I did, I watched you talking on a bunch of different interviews today and you said, ‘Burn it down.’ You said it, ‘Burn it down, it’s time.’ So that makes me think that you want to burn it down.”
“If this country doesn’t give us what we want then we will burn down the system and replace it,” Newsome replied. “And I could be speaking figuratively, I could be speaking literally. It’s a matter of interpretation.”
This came on the heels of comments from another BLM co-founder earlier in the week. As we detailed earlier in the week, while massive protests continue to rage across the country (and beyond) in the name of George Floyd, Black Lives Matter co-founder Patrisse Cullors admitted during a Friday night interview with CNN that “our goal is to get Trump out.”
Cullors, who described BLM organizers in 2015 as “trained Marxists,” compared Trump to Hitler after refusing to meet with him, and referred to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) as the Gestapo, told CNN‘s Jake Tapper (via Breitbart‘s Josh Caplan):
JAKE TAPPER: I’ve heard a lot of criticism of former Vice President Joe Biden from civil rights activists. The election, obviously, will be a choice. How do you think Biden matches up compared to President Trump when it comes to these issues that are important to you? PATRISSE CULLORS: Trump not only needs to not be in office in November but he should resign now. Trump needs to be out of office. He is not fit for office. And so what we are going to push for is a move to get Trump out. While we’re also going to continue to push and pressure vice president Joe Biden around his policies and relationship to policing and criminalization. That’s going to be important. But our goal is to get Trump out.

In 2015, Cullors said that BLM would take “any opportunity we have to shut down a Republican convention.”
Was Tucker Carlson right when he said (and was punished with an advertiser walkout from the ‘cancel’ crew at Sleeping Giants) that Black Lives Matter is now a political party?

newswars--2020-06-25--Why Central Banks Are a Threat to Our Savings

The US personal savings rate jumped to 33 percent in April from 12.7 percent in March and 8 percent in April last year .
An increase in savings is regarded by popular economics as less expenditure on consumption .
Since consumption expenditure is considered as the main driving force of the economy , obviously a rebound in savings , which implies less consumption , can not be good for economic activity , so it is held .
Saving and wealth—what is the relation ?
To maintain their life and well-being , individuals require access to consumer goods .
An increase @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in individuals ’ living standards .
What allows an increase in the production of consumer goods is the maintenance and the enhancement of the infrastructure of an economy .
With better infrastructure , a greater quantity and better quality of consumer goods could be generated and more real wealth can be produced .
The enhancement and the maintenance of the infrastructure becomes possible because of the availability of final consumer goods that sustain the various individuals who are busy expanding and maintaining the infrastructure .
It is the producers of final consumer goods @ @ @ @ @ @ @ maintenaning and enhancing the infrastructure .
The producers of final consumer goods pay these individuals ( i.e.
, the intermediary producers ) out of the saved or unconsumed production of final consumer goods .
Note that when a producer of final consumer goods decides to save more , i.e.
, to consume less , the fall in his consumption is offset by the increase in the consumption of individuals who are engaged in the intermediary stages of production .
This means that overall consumption is not declining because of an increase in saving—as @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the flow of economic activity going is the fact that the producers of final consumer goods—the wealth generators—invest part of their wealth in the expansion and maintenance of the production structure .
It is this that permits the increase in the production of consumer goods , which in turn makes it possible to increase the consumption of these goods .
Out of a greater production of wealth more can be now consumed .
So , the motor of the economy is actually not consumption but rather savings .
Since savings enable the production @ @ @ @ @ @ @ at the heart of the economic growth that raises people ’ s living standards .
Note that people do not want various means as such , but rather want final consumer goods .
In order to sustain themselves people require access to consumer goods .
Only once there has been a sufficient increase in the pool of consumer goods can people aim at enhancing their well-being by seeking other things such as entertainment- and service-related products such as medical treatment .
Saved goods support all the stages of production , from the producers @ @ @ @ @ @ @ producers of raw materials , services , and all other intermediate stages .
In the National Income and Product Accounts ( NIPA ) , the saving rate is established as the ratio of personal saving to disposable income .
Disposable income is defined as the summation of all personal money income less tax and nontax money payments to the government .
Personal income includes wages and salaries , transfer payments , income from interest and dividends , and rental income .
Once we deduct personal monetary outlays from disposable money income , we @ @ @ @ @ @ @ framework is based on the Keynesian view that spending by one individual becomes part of the earnings of another individual .
Each payment transaction has two aspects—the spending of the purchaser is the income of the seller .
From this it follows that spending = income .
So if people maintain their spending , this keeps overall income going—hence why consumer spending is the motor of the economy .
Observe that the total amount of money spent is driven by the increase in the supply of money .
Consequently , the more money @ @ @ @ @ @ @ air , ” the more of it will be spent and therefore the greater the NIPA ’ s national income is going to be .
In the graph we see that the year-over-year change in the money supply tracks with the savings rate .
It shouldn ’ t be surprising that the so-called personal savings rate closely resembles the momentum of money supply .
In this way of thinking there is no need to worry about savings , as the central bank can always boost them .
But contrary to the NIPA framework @ @ @ @ @ @ @ fact lead to the destruction of savings .
Here ’ s how it works .
How an Increase in Money Supply Destroys Savings In the real world , one has to become a producer before one can demand goods and services .
It is necessary to produce some useful goods that can be exchanged for other goods .
For instance , when a baker produces bread , not everything he produces is for his own consumption .
In fact , most of the bread he produces is exchanged for the goods and services @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the production of bread , the baker generates an effective demand for other goods .
In this sense , his demand is fully backed by the bread that he has produced .
When money is printed—that is , created “ out of thin air ” by the central bank or through fractional reserve banking—it sets in motion an exchange of nothing for money and then money for something .
This results in an exchange of nothing for something .
An exchange of nothing for something amounts to consumption that is not supported by @ @ @ @ @ @ @ thin air ” gives rise to consumption that is not supported by preceding production , it lowers the amount of real savings that supports a wealth producer ’ s production of goods .
This , in turn , undermines his production of goods , thereby weakening his effective demand for the goods of other wealth producers .
The other wealth producers are then forced to curtail their own production of goods , thereby weakening their effective demand for the goods of yet other wealth producers .
In this way , money “ out @ @ @ @ @ @ @ sets up the dynamics of the consequent shrinkage of the production flow .
To conclude : what enables the expansion of the flow of production of goods and services is savings .
It is through savings , which give rise to production , that demand for goods can be exercised .
No effective demand can take place without prior production .
If it were otherwise , then poverty in the world would have been eradicated a long time ago .
Is it Possible to Quantify Total Real Savings ?
Now , even if @ @ @ @ @ @ @ what the status of savings is , the relevant savings measure should be the real one—after all , it is real savings that grow the economy .
To be able to calculate real savings one must first establish total real income and total real personal outlays .
However , this can not be done , since it is not possible to add potatoes and tomatoes into a meaningful total .
All that one can establish is the amount of money spent , or total monetary expenditure .
It is tempting to suggest that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ expenditure if we could somehow establish an average price paid for various goods and services .
Such an average , however , can not be established—try and establish an average from dollars per liter of milk and dollars per ton of iron .
Various mathematical methods employed by government statisticians that supposedly provide the solution for separating the real total from total monetary expenditure are an exercise in wishful thinking .
On this Rothbard writes in Man , Economy , and State , All sorts of index numbers have been spawned in a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ geometrical , and harmonic averages have been taken at variable and fixed weights ; “ ideal ” formulas have been explored—all with no realization of the futulity of these endeavors .
No such index number , no attempt to separate and measure prices and quantities , can be valid .
In the field of praxeology and economics no sense can be given to the notion of measurement .
In the hypothetical state of rigid conditions there are no changes to be measured .
In the actual world of change there are no fixed @ @ @ @ @ @ @ could serve as a standard .
Even government statisticians admit that the whole thing is not real .
According to J. Steven Landefeld and Robert P. Parker of the Bureau of Economic Analysis ( BEA ) , In particular , it is important to recognize that real GDP is an analytic concept .
Despite the name , real GDP is not “ real ” in the sense that it can , even in principle , be observed or collected directly , in the same sense that current-dollar GDP can in principle be observed @ @ @ @ @ @ @ spending on final goods and services in the economy .
Quantities of apples and oranges can in principle be collected , but they can not be added to obtain the total quantity of “ fruit ” output in the economy .
Now , since it is not possible to quantitatively establish the status of the total real goods and services , obviously various data like real income , real personal consumption expenditure , or real GDP that government statisticians generate shouldn ’ t be taken too seriously .
The data that is generated @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a fiction .

The US personal savings rate jumped to 33 percent in April from 12.7 percent in March and 8 percent in April last year.
An increase in savings is regarded by popular economics as less expenditure on consumption. Since consumption expenditure is considered as the main driving force of the economy, obviously a rebound in savings, which implies less consumption, cannot be good for economic activity, so it is held. Saving and wealth—what is the relation?
To maintain their life and well-being, individuals require access to consumer goods. An increase in various consumer goods permits an increase in individuals’ living standards. What allows an increase in the production of consumer goods is the maintenance and the enhancement of the infrastructure of an economy. With better infrastructure, a greater quantity and better quality of consumer goods could be generated and more real wealth can be produced.
The enhancement and the maintenance of the infrastructure becomes possible because of the availability of final consumer goods that sustain the various individuals who are busy expanding and maintaining the infrastructure. It is the producers of final consumer goods who pay the various individuals engaged in maintenaning and enhancing the infrastructure. The producers of final consumer goods pay these individuals (i.e., the intermediary producers) out of the saved or unconsumed production of final consumer goods.
Note that when a producer of final consumer goods decides to save more, i.e., to consume less, the fall in his consumption is offset by the increase in the consumption of individuals who are engaged in the intermediary stages of production. This means that overall consumption is not declining because of an increase in saving—as popular thinking has it.
What keeps the flow of economic activity going is the fact that the producers of final consumer goods—the wealth generators—invest part of their wealth in the expansion and maintenance of the production structure. It is this that permits the increase in the production of consumer goods, which in turn makes it possible to increase the consumption of these goods. Out of a greater production of wealth more can be now consumed. So, the motor of the economy is actually not consumption but rather savings.
Since savings enable the production of capital goods, savings are obviously at the heart of the economic growth that raises people’s living standards.
Note that people do not want various means as such, but rather want final consumer goods. In order to sustain themselves people require access to consumer goods. Only once there has been a sufficient increase in the pool of consumer goods can people aim at enhancing their well-being by seeking other things such as entertainment- and service-related products such as medical treatment.
Saved goods support all the stages of production, from the producers of final consumer goods down to the producers of raw materials, services, and all other intermediate stages.
Government Data on Saving
In the National Income and Product Accounts (NIPA), the saving rate is established as the ratio of personal saving to disposable income. Disposable income is defined as the summation of all personal money income less tax and nontax money payments to the government.
Personal income includes wages and salaries, transfer payments, income from interest and dividends, and rental income. Once we deduct personal monetary outlays from disposable money income, we get the personal saving.
The NIPA framework is based on the Keynesian view that spending by one individual becomes part of the earnings of another individual. Each payment transaction has two aspects—the spending of the purchaser is the income of the seller. From this it follows that spending = income.
So if people maintain their spending, this keeps overall income going—hence why consumer spending is the motor of the economy.
Observe that the total amount of money spent is driven by the increase in the supply of money. Consequently, the more money that is created out of “thin air,” the more of it will be spent and therefore the greater the NIPA’s national income is going to be. In the graph we see that the year-over-year change in the money supply tracks with the savings rate.
It shouldn’t be surprising that the so-called personal savings rate closely resembles the momentum of money supply. In this way of thinking there is no need to worry about savings, as the central bank can always boost them.
But contrary to the NIPA framework, increases in the money supply in fact lead to the destruction of savings. Here’s how it works.
How an Increase in Money Supply Destroys Savings
In the real world, one has to become a producer before one can demand goods and services. It is necessary to produce some useful goods that can be exchanged for other goods.
For instance, when a baker produces bread, not everything he produces is for his own consumption. In fact, most of the bread he produces is exchanged for the goods and services of other producers, implying that through the production of bread, the baker generates an effective demand for other goods. In this sense, his demand is fully backed by the bread that he has produced.
When money is printed—that is, created “out of thin air” by the central bank or through fractional reserve banking—it sets in motion an exchange of nothing for money and then money for something. This results in an exchange of nothing for something.
An exchange of nothing for something amounts to consumption that is not supported by production. When money “out of thin air” gives rise to consumption that is not supported by preceding production, it lowers the amount of real savings that supports a wealth producer’s production of goods.
This, in turn, undermines his production of goods, thereby weakening his effective demand for the goods of other wealth producers. The other wealth producers are then forced to curtail their own production of goods, thereby weakening their effective demand for the goods of yet other wealth producers. In this way, money “out of thin air” that destroys savings sets up the dynamics of the consequent shrinkage of the production flow.
To conclude: what enables the expansion of the flow of production of goods and services is savings. It is through savings, which give rise to production, that demand for goods can be exercised. No effective demand can take place without prior production. If it were otherwise, then poverty in the world would have been eradicated a long time ago.
Is it Possible to Quantify Total Real Savings?
Now, even if there were any compelling reason to establish what the status of savings is, the relevant savings measure should be the real one—after all, it is real savings that grow the economy. To be able to calculate real savings one must first establish total real income and total real personal outlays. However, this cannot be done, since it is not possible to add potatoes and tomatoes into a meaningful total. All that one can establish is the amount of money spent, or total monetary expenditure.
It is tempting to suggest that we could ascertain real income and real expenditure if we could somehow establish an average price paid for various goods and services. Such an average, however, cannot be established—try and establish an average from dollars per liter of milk and dollars per ton of iron.
Various mathematical methods employed by government statisticians that supposedly provide the solution for separating the real total from total monetary expenditure are an exercise in wishful thinking.
On this Rothbard writes in Man, Economy, and State,
All sorts of index numbers have been spawned in a vain attempt to surmount these difficulties…arithmetical, geometrical, and harmonic averages have been taken at variable and fixed weights; “ideal” formulas have been explored—all with no realization of the futulity of these endeavors. No such index number, no attempt to separate and measure prices and quantities, can be valid.
According to Mises,
In the field of praxeology and economics no sense can be given to the notion of measurement. In the hypothetical state of rigid conditions there are no changes to be measured. In the actual world of change there are no fixed points, dimensions, or relations which could serve as a standard.
Even government statisticians admit that the whole thing is not real. According to J. Steven Landefeld and Robert P. Parker of the Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA),
In particular, it is important to recognize that real GDP is an analytic concept. Despite the name, real GDP is not “real” in the sense that it can, even in principle, be observed or collected directly, in the same sense that current-dollar GDP can in principle be observed or collected as the sum of actual spending on final goods and services in the economy. Quantities of apples and oranges can in principle be collected, but they cannot be added to obtain the total quantity of “fruit” output in the economy.
Now, since it is not possible to quantitatively establish the status of the total real goods and services, obviously various data like real income, real personal consumption expenditure, or real GDP that government statisticians generate shouldn’t be taken too seriously. The data that is generated by means of mathematical methods is just a fiction.

Delivering the Unseen
What was the early universe like? There are certainly many data points, but not enough to create an exhaustive census of its conditions. Plus, researchers’ knowledge and assumptions are updated frequently—each time a new deep exposure is released. “Every time we look farther, we find galaxies earlier and earlier than we thought possible.

Hitting “Rewind”
Perhaps the most exciting element of this research is how the team will use the data to uncover new findings about an important period of the universe’s history called the “Era of Reionization.” The big bang set off a series of events, leading to the cosmic microwave background, the dark ages, the first stars and galaxies—and then to the Era of Reionization. During this period, the gas in the universe transformed from mostly neutral, meaning it was opaque to ultraviolet light, and became completely ionized, which allowed it to be transparent. Ionization means the atoms were stripped of their electrons—eventually leading to the “clear” conditions detected in much of the universe today.
Many questions remain about this unique time in our universe. For example, what was responsible for converting the gas from neutral to ionized? And how long did it take before the universe became significantly less opaque and much more transparent?
“We think this happened when ultraviolet light escaped young, forming galaxies,” Dickinson explained. “There may be other factors. For example, early accreting black holes may also have emitted ultraviolet light that eventually helped transform the gas.”
Where the galaxies appear on the sky offers another clue. “We’ll examine reionization-era galaxies to see if they are clustered together in the same regions or if they are more isolated,” said Kartaltepe. “We have a lot of ideas about what causes galaxies to grow and become more massive, but we need more comprehensive information about these galaxies to fully understand how they initially grew and evolved.”
The presence of galactic mergers or interactions—or lack thereof—will also help the team trace the conditions of the environment during the Era of Reionization. “The CEERS Survey will give us hints about how this period proceeded,” Dickinson adds. “We will certainly learn about the galaxies we think are responsible, and also hope to learn about the ionizing radiation that escaped them.”

“That’s the difference with Webb’s Near-Infrared Spectrograph, or NIRSpec,” Dickinson emphasized. “We’ll open the spectrograph’s microshutter slits to individually observe hundreds of galaxies to obtain their spectra for the first time.”
Beginning to Build a Census
In the months following the initial data release, the CEERS Survey researchers will create and post new tools and catalogs any researcher can use to analyze the data, including masses of galaxies, galaxy shapes, and photometric redshifts. “With the same set of observations, hundreds of researchers can conduct hundreds of science experiments,” Kartaltepe said. “We’re also going to find things we didn’t even think to ask, which is one more reason why the CEERS Survey research will be so rewarding.

newswars--2020-06-25--Economist Predicts: There Will Be No Dollar Rally

A lot of people still have faith in the dollar .
Some people even believe the dollar is set to rally .
Santiago Capital CEO Brent Johnson is one of those people .
He bases his dollar bullishness on what he calls “ the milkshake theory.
” In his podcast this week , Peter Schiff explained why the milkshake theory is all wet .
Peter Schiff has been saying that the real crisis will be a dollar crisis .
Even before the coronavirus pandemic , Peter was talking about the dollar ’ s demise .

” Alex Jones breaks down the Wall Street Journal feature celebrating the end of humanity .

A lot of people still have faith in the dollar. Some people even believe the dollar is set to rally. Santiago Capital CEO Brent Johnson is one of those people.
He bases his dollar bullishness on what he calls “the milkshake theory.” In his podcast this week, Peter Schiff explained why the milkshake theory is all wet.
Peter Schiff has been saying that the real crisis will be a dollar crisis. Even before the coronavirus pandemic, Peter was talking about the dollar’s demise. During an interview on RT last September, he warned that America’s “fiscal profligacy” was going to sink the dollar.
The unprecedented Federal Reserve money printing and the massive borrowing and spending binge by the US government in response to COVID-19 have only accelerated the process. In March, Peter said during his podcast, “I think we’re very, very close to a major collapse of the dollar, a major breakout in the price of gold, to a breakdown in the bond market.”

As one analyst explains it, “dollar milkshake theory views central bank liquidity as the milkshake and when Fed’s policy transitions from easing to tightening they are exchanging a metaphoric syringe for a big straw sucking liquidity from global markets.”
In a nutshell, the world depends on flows of dollars. Loans made in USD need to be paid back with interest in USD. That means there is always a demand for dollars – especially when economies tank and you start seeing loan defaults.
But if this theory holds water, shouldn’t we have seen a major dollar rally as the coronavirus economic crisis unfolded?
Peter pointed out that the dollar did rally as the stock market imploded last March, but not significantly. The dollar index pushed to 102.9. It didn’t even get to its 2017 peak, nor could it take out its 2015 peak.

You have to have a demand for US assets to drive the demand for the dollar. The problem is that US assets are massively overpriced.
“So, at some point, there’s this huge glut of dollars on the market and that demand that was coming from investors to get into US financial assets is not going to be there. Meanwhile, the supply of dollars is going to increase dramatically, not just from our trade deficits but from our budget deficits.”
Keep in mind that about 55 cents out of every dollar spent by the US government is being printed by the Federal Reserve. Most of the government is being financed by newly-printed money. The supply of dollars is growing dramatically. That means the price of the dollar has to come down. This is basic supply and demand.
Peter also explains why the large amounts of dollar-denominated debt don’t bode well for the dollar. It’s what will ultimately kill the dollar.

The coronavirus pandemic has pushed U.S. Democrats to take the historic step of moving most of the party ’ s August convention to a virtual format .
The Democratic National Convention Committee announced the decision Wednesday , saying state delegations would be told to stay home with host city Milwaukee still serving as the hub of four nights of live broadcasts but with satellite cities and landmarks also playing a part in the event .

“ The DNCC reiterated the Democratic Party ’ s commitment to holding a convention that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ convention experience for delegates and viewers , ” the committee said in a statement .
Democratic National Committee Chairman Tom Perez said the party is “ listening to health experts and adjusting our plans.

The coronavirus pandemic has pushed U.S. Democrats to take the historic step of moving most of the party’s August convention to a virtual format.
The Democratic National Convention Committee announced the decision Wednesday, saying state delegations would be told to stay home with host city Milwaukee still serving as the hub of four nights of live broadcasts but with satellite cities and landmarks also playing a part in the event.
Former Vice President Joe Biden’s campaign manager, Jen O’Malley Dillon, said Biden still intends to “proudly accept his party’s nomination in Milwaukee.”
Most of the typical convention business done by party officials who gather from all over the country will be accomplished through remote working sessions.
Because the event will no longer feature the usual large crowds packed into a big space to cheer speeches and hold votes, the party said it was moving from the Fiserv Forum, the home of the National Basketball Association’s Milwaukee Bucks, to Milwaukee’s convention center.
“The DNCC reiterated the Democratic Party’s commitment to holding a convention that would protect public health while transforming the convention experience for delegates and viewers,” the committee said in a statement.
Democratic National Committee Chairman Tom Perez said the party is “listening to health experts and adjusting our plans.”
“Unlike this president, Joe Biden and Democrats are committed to protecting the health and safety of the American people,” he said.
Perez had already taken the step of pushing the convention back from its original July date to its current slot from August 17-20.
Republicans are holding their party convention in two parts, the first being the more procedural work from August 21-24 in Charlotte, North Carolina. That was the original site for the whole convention, but due to coronavirus safety concerns, Governor Roy Cooper refused to give Republicans assurances they could hold a large-scale event in the state with thousands of attendees.
Instead, President Donald Trump will accept his party’s nomination and deliver his acceptance speech as part of events being held August 25-27 in Jacksonville, Florida.
The toned-down conventions will go against the norm for the country’s two major parties, which even in times such as the 1860s Civil War and World War 2 still held conventions in crowded venues.
U.S. voters will cast their votes for president on November 3.

And in a country where every trend can be monetized, investors are already making money from this latest bout of obesity: the Solactive Obesity Index is up 26% in 2020 compared with a decline of 4.7% in the S&P 500. The obesity index has even outperformed the Nasdaq.
