“It was quite the experience to see what was going on in this country and to experience it myself,” Jones said on his radio show Tuesday.
Ironically, Jones added that the arresting officer couldn’t even perform the roadside “stand on one leg” sobriety test correctly when he was trying to demonstrate it.
That test involved standing on one foot while trying to hold the other foot one inch off the ground while staring at the lifted foot.
Knowing how the establishment, globalist press operates, Jones wanted to get out in front of this to show he has nothing to hide and to point out that legal experts are confident the case will be quickly dropped because he didn’t violate the law.

Joe Biden got into a heated exchange Tuesday with a Michigan voter who called out his anti-Second Amendment views .
While touring an auto factory ahead of the Michigan primary , a group of autoworkers accused Biden of trying to curtail the Second Amendment .
“ You ’ re gon na take away our guns , ” a worker told Biden .
When a Biden staffer tried to break up the confrontation , Biden dismissed her , telling her to “ Shush.

Italians are being told to stay inside unless they need to buy medicines by health authorities patrolling neighborhoods with loudspeakers as the coronavirus quarantine begins to take hold .
With 60 million people having their movements restricted , the video has a somewhat post-apocalytpic feel as Italians are told , “ Please stay at home & go outside only when you need to buy medicines or see doctors .
Please follow our rules & wear face masks.

Latest figures show there have been 9,172 cases and 463 deaths across the country as travel is highly restricted and all public gatherings forbidden .

According to one expert , the “ outbreak has basically ended in China , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ South Korea are also on the decline .

newswars--2020-03-10--New Analysis Reveals Trump Must Lock Down US Just Like Italy in Order to Break Chain of Exponential

New Analysis Reveals Trump Must Lock Down US Just Like Italy in Order to Break Chain of Exponential Spread of Coronavirus

Last night , we published a new pandemic projection model with a downloadable spreadsheet so you can run your own scenarios and see all the math and methodology behind the projection .
Alex Jones is live with Mike Adams breaking down what President Trump needs to do today to keep Americans safe .
You can download that spreadsheet from this article on Natural News .
That model introduced a new factor called the “ social distancing suppression factor ” which describes what percentage of infections are prevented due to social distancing : people staying home from work , closing schools @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Using this tool , we ’ ve been able to run different scenarios that examine the R0 values of the virus vs. the social distancing suppression factor required to stop the virus from exponentially exploding across the country .
This has revealed some fascinating data that speaks to the urgent need for the USA to follow Italy with a nationwide quarantine of everyone .
It is the only way this pandemic can be stopped , it turns out .
For background the R0 value describes how many new people get infected by an @ @ @ @ @ @ @ would encompass social distancing factors itself ( i.e .
the R0 would change as human behavior changes ) , but we have introduced the social distancing suppression factor as a separate variable in order to independently test the results of quarantines , air traffic lockdowns and so on .
Here ’ s what the projections now show : • If the coronavirus has an R0 value of 2.0 , social distancing measures must achieve a 48 % suppression of new infections to stop the coronavirus from exploding across America .
• If the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , social distancing measures must achieve a 54 % suppression of new infections to stop the coronavirus from exploding across America .
• If the coronavirus has an R0 value of 4.0 , social distancing measures must achieve a 74 % suppression of new infections to stop the coronavirus from exploding across America .
• If the coronavirus has an R0 value of 5.0 , social distancing measures must achieve a 79 % suppression of new infections to stop the coronavirus from exploding across America .
• If the coronavirus has an R0 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ must achieve a 83 % suppression of new infections to stop the coronavirus from exploding across America .
In other words , the higher the R0 value of the virus , the more aggressive the containment strategies must be in order to stop its exponential spread .
Current scientific studies estimate the coronavirus R0 value to be somewhere between 4.5 and 6.6 , although these numbers surely vary across the many different strains that have already mutated and spread across the world .
These suppression factors are “ tipping points ” that MUST @ @ @ @ @ @ @ continues What really shocked me in running these projections is how a very tiny difference in the suppression values can result in long-term differences that describe millions of lives lost or saved .
The suppression percentages described above are “ tipping points ” after which the virus get largely contained and stops its exponential spread .
But merely getting close to that tipping point isn ’ t enough .
You have to meet or exceed those percentages or the virus continues to replicate beyond your control .
If the coronavirus has an R0 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , the importance of enforcing lockdowns and medical martial law becomes critical .
Even a few people breaking quarantine can sustain the exponential spread of the virus .
It ’ s clear that China realized this early on , which is why they resorted to draconian crackdown measures that saw people literally welded into their apartment buildings under armed guard .
Trump must now shut down all US air traffic , roadways and cities , or the virus will continue to exponentially spread across America The upshot is that until President Trump declares @ @ @ @ @ @ @ USA in the same way Italy has just done — a nationwide quarantine of everyone — the virus will continue to exponentially spread across America .
In order to break the exponential cycle of the virus spread , Trump would have to : • Block all international flights into the USA from all countries • Order all public schools , universities , government offices and churches to close • Quarantine all US cities , block all highways in and out • Shut down all public transportation , including subways , buses , taxis @ @ @ @ @ @ @ law and prevent people from leaving their homes or gathering in groups of any kind These efforts might achieve a 90 % suppression factor , which would break the cycle of the coronavirus within 3-4 weeks .
In other words , America would have to endure a month of hell to stop the virus in its tracks .
We know this works from a medical standpoint .
The question is at what cost to society and human freedom .
For starters , Americans have basic civil liberties that do not exist in China @ @ @ @ @ @ @ may not go over very well in terms of compliance among the people .
Secondly , the economic consequences would be catastrophic .
Imagine shutting down the entire US economy for a full month .
What would that do to the stock market ?
The GDP ?
How would Americans survive without paychecks for a month ?
But if you don ’ t shut down the country , sooner or later your hospitals are overrun with infections and you end up with a national health crisis that gets even worse than just shutting @ @ @ @ @ @ @ early weeks of the pandemic .
So far , Trump has chosen the “ catastrophic ” track for America , which begins with DENIAL and ends with DISASTER So far , it seems that Trump has chosen to kick the coronavirus can down the road and wait for this thing to explode into a nationwide health crisis .
According to our calculations , if nothing is done to stop the exponential spread of the virus in the USA , the hospitals will be overrun around the end of May .
It also means @ @ @ @ @ @ @ “ denial ” game for about six more weeks , after which the denial gambit collapses into a national crisis and the Trump administration is probably done for .
Put another way , President Trump has perhaps only a few more weeks to save his presidency and save America from an exploding national crisis , and he must take aggressive quarantine / lockdown actions , not just pump more counterfeit money into the stock market .
You can ’ t solve this problem with more Fed pumping .
Sooner or later , you @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and how to stop it from replicating in the lungs of the American people .
If Trump does nothing , millions will die .
Our current projections , now using a 25 % social distancing suppression factor , puts the estimated number of deaths in America at 1.1 million by July 4th if Trump does nothing to stop this .
This number can be reduced to just 1,322 deaths if Trump takes aggressive action to lock down the USA .
In other words , we can stop this .
But decisive , aggressive @ @ @ @ @ @ @ we must all be willing to live in isolation for about 30 days to break the cycle of the coronavirus .
So the good news is we have a solution for the coronavirus .
The bad news is the solution might crater the US economy and cause unimaginable disruptions nationwide , including shortages of food , medicine , water and so on .
The bad news is that if we aren ’ t willing to go through that hell , a far worse nationwide crisis eventually unfolds due to the laws of mathematics @ @ @ @ @ @ @ system turns into a hellzone of mass disease and death , during which the mortality rate for the infection will skyrocket to 10 % or more , multiplying the casualties even further .
The even worse news is that Trump currently has us on the “ catastrophic ” track , which begins with denial and ends with disaster .
The United States healthcare system faces an implosion over the coronavirus outbreak .

In other words, the higher the R0 value of the virus, the more aggressive the containment strategies must be in order to stop its exponential spread.
Current scientific studies estimate the coronavirus R0 value to be somewhere between 4.5 and 6.6, although these numbers surely vary across the many different strains that have already mutated and spread across the world.
These suppression factors are “tipping points” that MUST be reached, or the exponential spread continues
What really shocked me in running these projections is how a very tiny difference in the suppression values can result in long-term differences that describe millions of lives lost or saved.

The upshot is that until President Trump declares a national emergency and locks down the USA in the same way Italy has just done — a nationwide quarantine of everyone — the virus will continue to exponentially spread across America.
In order to break the exponential cycle of the virus spread, Trump would have to:
Block all international flights into the USA from all countries
Close all borders and stop cross-border traffic
Shut down all domestic commercial air travel
Order all public schools, universities, government offices and churches to close
Cancel all public events, including concerts, conferences, etc.
Quarantine all US cities, block all highways in and out
Shut down all public transportation, including subways, buses, taxis and rail
Enact nationwide medical martial law and prevent people from leaving their homes or gathering in groups of any kind
These efforts might achieve a 90% suppression factor, which would break the cycle of the coronavirus within 3-4 weeks.
In other words, America would have to endure a month of hell to stop the virus in its tracks.
We know this works from a medical standpoint. The question is at what cost to society and human freedom.

The bad news is that if we aren’t willing to go through that hell, a far worse nationwide crisis eventually unfolds due to the laws of mathematics and biology, and the US hospital system turns into a hellzone of mass disease and death, during which the mortality rate for the infection will skyrocket to 10% or more, multiplying the casualties even further.
The even worse news is that Trump currently has us on the “catastrophic” track, which begins with denial and ends with disaster.

v. Dorvil , 472 Mass .
http : //masscases.com/cases/sjc/472/472mass1.html ) 5 ) Minnesota ’ s child protection workers do not have immunity when they seize a child without evidence of child abuse .

A group called Stop Child Protection Services from Legally Kidnapping Children (SCPSLKC) brought a civil rights lawsuit against state and county agencies in Minnesota who enforce child protection laws.
Plaintiffs in the historic lawsuit are suing “for civil rights violations and to stop child protection services from serial abuse of families.”
The group, comprised of over 9,500 parents, claims, “Minnesota’s child protection laws are unconstitutionally vague and overbroad, triggering unnecessary investigations and putting children at risk for being removed from their homes unnecessarily based on mere allegations and social worker discretion.”
The suit is historic because it’s the first in U.S. history to challenge the statutory definition of a Child in Need of Protection or Services (CHIPS).
SCPSLKC founder Dwight Mitchell selected one group member to focus their efforts on, provided free legal aid services to them and won the inaugural case against Minnesota Child Protection Services on September 11, 2018.
After CPS unnecessarily removed Amanda Webber’s son from her home when he was only 10-months old and held him in foster care for four months, a judge ruled “disinformation” was used against Webber.
“The lawsuit details how Minnesota’s child protection standards illegally put children in the category of ‘child in
need of protection or services’ and place them in foster homes,” according to a press release.
The lawsuit also details the racial impact of “child kidnapping,” explaining Native American children are 17.6 times more likely to be taken by the government while those who identify as two or more races are 4.8 times more likely and African-American children are over 3.1 times more likely to be abducted by CPS.“
“Minnesota’s child protection statutes authorize child protection services – not fit parents – to raise their children. It is an outrage,” Mitchell’s attorney Erick Kaardal said.
“It’s not just fathers like Dwight Mitchell who are being railroaded. Minnesota is also using its unconstitutionally low standards to seize all children, both black and white, from their single mothers,” Kaardal continued. “Therefore, the plaintiffs have sued in federal court to stop child protection services from continuing its serial abuse of Minnesota’s families. It is clear that Minnesota’s child protection services is currently broken and can’t be fixed with the current unconstitutional statutes in place.”
Since the United States District Court already ruled the group had no legal standing to challenge the state’s child protection laws, Kaardal will be presenting arguments at the U.S. Court of Appeals on Wednesday, March 11.
Kaardal is set to make the following arguments:
1) “Stop CPS From Legally Kidnapping Children” is a legitimate association with standing to bring federal lawsuits on behalf of its members just like the NAACP and ACLU.
2) Per the Eighth Circuit decision of August 10, 2018, it is well-established law that it is unconstitutional to seize a child without reasonable suspicion of child abuse. (See Stanley v. Finnegan, Court of Appeals http://media.ca8.uscourts.gov/opndir/18/08/172702P.pdf)
3) Minnesota’s child protection statutes have constitutional deficits in that they do not require the government to show parental harm to the child prior to seizing the child. (See Alsager v. District Court of Polk County https://scholar.google.com/scholar_case?case=10585920528981202132&q)
4) Minnesota’s child protection statutes fail to follow the national trend of excluding “ordinary corporal punishment” from the definition of child abuse. This issue has not been addressed by federal courts, but should be. (See Com. v. Dorvil, 472 Mass. http://masscases.com/cases/sjc/472/472mass1.html)

We are now releasing the downloadable Pandemic Projection Model ( “ Adams Model ” ) spreadsheet , Revision 2 , with new features : • You can alter the starting assumption values to test different scenarios of where the coronavirus pandemic goes in any given nation or population region .
• Fields that can be altered include R0 value , mortality rate , and # of infected individuals on day one .
• New feature : “ Social distancing suppression ” value allows you to suppress new infections by a percentage you choose .
This helps take into account school @ @ @ @ @ @ @ habits which are already being altered .
You can now download the spreadsheet at this link : The file format is .xls , compatible with MS Excel and Apache Open Office ( free software from Apache ) .
You will also need to unzip the zip file , of course , after you download it .
You can use a utility like 7-zip ( 7-zip.org ) to achieve this .
Once you download the spreadsheet , you may immediately begin altering several variables to test the outcomes they will produce .
All rows @ @ @ @ @ @ @ deaths , etc.
, are automatically updated ( as in any spreadsheet-based on relational formulas ) .
If you use this spreadsheet or cite its numbers , please give credit to Mike Adams , Pandemic.news / NaturalNews.com .
New projections show only 1.1 million deaths in the USA by July 4th if social distancing achieves 25 % suppression The projections of this Revision 2 spreadsheet typically do not match Revision 1 , since we have simplified some of the calculations .
This has resulted in typically a lower total fatality projection .
One @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is that if you enter an R0 value of 2.4 , and use a social distancing suppression value of 25 % , there are only 1.1 million deaths in the USA by July 4th .
You are free to modify the values in the spreadsheet yourself , and to republish the spreadsheet as long as you give proper credit to the author .
If you notice any calculation modeling errors in the spreadsheet , please inform us via the NaturalNews.com feedback form so we can improve it for Revision 3 .
• The @ @ @ @ @ @ @ become infectious themselves the following day , and then remain infectious for exactly 14 days , after which they either become immune ( and non-infectious ) or die ( and are therefore non-infectious ) .
• You can change the 14-day window in this spreadsheet by altering the references starting with cell E41 which references C27 ( notice the difference between the row numbers is 14 ) .
Because of the “ lag time ” calculations , you have to manually alter these cells yourself to create whatever lag time window you want @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , or 20 days ) .
These changes must of course be carried to all subsequent cells in the spreadsheet .
Feel free to run your own projections .
Try R0 values of 3.0 or higher to see what happens ( if you dare… ) The United States healthcare system faces an implosion over the coronavirus outbreak .

You can change the 14-day window in this spreadsheet by altering the references starting with cell E41 which references C27 (notice the difference between the row numbers is 14).

Multiple victims are dead and wounded after a man previously known to authorities allegedly embarked on a bloody stabbing spree in Melbourne, Australia.
Mohammed Ibrahim, 34, is believed to have attacked police officers with bladed weapons before killing at least two people in a rampage that spanned miles across the city.
After approaching two officers at a rail station, Ibrahim reportedly slashed one in the face and arm before escaping and hopping a train.
“At about 11:15 pm, he started talking with two women – aged 30 and 31 – getting out of their vehicle at Coppin Grove before stabbing them. The 30-year-old victim died at the scene,” 9 News reports. “Police were then called to reports of a man stabbed near a tram stop in Kew about 12:15 am.”
“That man, 59, died in hospital, while the offender was spotted by police a few hundred metres away, in Walton Street.”
Ibrahim was reportedly shot dead by police during an attempted arrest.
Ibrahim had visited multiple police stations in 2018, claiming a local ISIS cell was “out to kill him,” according to 9 News.

After a spokesperson for Texas-based grocer H-E-B announced they were “limiting product purchases to protect the supply chain,” all hell seemed to break loose.
Long lines awaited customers who seemingly never expected the panic buys to affect the Lone Star State.

newswars--2020-03-12--India’s economy ‘major winner’ from global oil price collapse

Falling energy prices could reduce India ’ s inflation and lower the cost of its import bills , economists say .

Rao explained to CNBC that domestic oil prices @ @ @ @ @ @ @ pressures on non-oil businesses may translate into some relief for the low demand weighing on the economy .
“ If accompanied by an improvement in sentiments and better confidence over income prospects , this would spell good news for growth , ” she said .

newswars--2020-03-12--Mexico’s Leftist Leader Is Turning Out To Be a Disaster

“ The government is corrupt , because the wrong people are in charge .
Once López Obrador wins the presidency , everything will be different .
The state will give us great education and healthcare services , for free !
The rich will pay their taxes and poor people will get the welfare programs they need to escape poverty.
” That ’ s what one of my friends told me , with an almost religious level of devotion , and she wasn ’ t the only one .
A couple of years ago left-winger Andrés Manuel López Obrador managed to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ his followers .
He was so successful that he won the 2018 presidential elections by a landslide , collecting 53 percent of the vote ( the largest margin since 1982 ) , and propelled his political alliance to a comfortable majority in both chambers of the Congress of the Union and most of the state legislatures .
This was remarkable considering that most of the candidates of his party were perfect nobodies who won specifically because of Obrador ’ s endorsement .
At the core of his movement , there was the fantasy @ @ @ @ @ @ @ by honest and “ patriotic ” people , that would end corruption , multiply welfare programs , and correct the injustices of “ neoliberalism.
” During his campaign , Obrador would go on TV shows and promise that from the first day of his government criminals would change their ways and become honest people .
He would answer every question about the problems of the country with a one-size-fits-all solution : fight government corruption and give out more welfare .
And the people ate it up .
More than 30 million citizens voted @ @ @ @ @ @ @ surprisingly he even had above-average support from the rich and the college educated .
Why ?
The reason is far more worrisome than it seems .
In Mexico , the fantasy of a perfect government is deeply ingrained in the minds of the majority of the people : whether they ’ re conservatives or liberals , they long for an all-good and all-powerful leader who will erase the problems and bring justice to the land .
So , every time state intervention proves to be a disaster , people take refuge in the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ “ wrong people ” had the power .
“ But once OUR guy is in charge , ” they say , “ everything will be different.
” All López Obrador did was take this fantasy , perfect it , and turn it into the language of a well-oiled electoral machine : he built an alliance with old politicians of the PRI ( Institutional Revolutionary Party/Partido Revolucionario Institucional ) , evangelical leaders , unions , singers , and intellectuals .
Then he rode to a resounding victory .
So , next exit : utopia @ @ @ @ @ @ @ teensy , weensy , but ever-so-crucial little detail : fantasies , like those cruel mirages that haunt the lost travelers in the middle of the desert , evaporate as soon as you reach out your hand and try to touch them .
And they turn into dust .
So far , López Obrador ’ s administration has been sixteen months of the slow-motion vanishing of that fantasy .
He promised that Mexico ’ s economy would grow by 4 percent in 2019 .
Instead , it fell 0.1 percent despite becoming the United @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
He promised to fight crime “ with hugs , not with bullets , ” but 2019 was the most violent year in Mexico ’ s modern history , with 34,582 murders .
He promised to rescue Pemex ( Mexican Petroleum/Petróleos Mexicanos ) , but the state-owned oil company doubled its losses in 2019 and is closer than ever to bankruptcy .
He promised free medical attention , but public hospitals have experienced chronic drug shortages for diseases such as cancer and HIV .
He promised to sell the presidential airplane , but @ @ @ @ @ @ @ lottery with money prizes , having found out that he can ’ t give it away because the Mexican government acquired it on a leasing contract with Banobras ( National Bank of Public Works and Services/Banco Nacional de Obras y Servicios Públicos ) .
As the weeks pass by , the incompetence becomes ever more evident , and hope turns into disappointment .
A host of polls published in the early days of march show the same picture : Obrador ’ s popularity is bleeding .
He has lost around 20 percentage points @ @ @ @ @ @ @ begin to question his actions in the presidency .
Meanwhile , he ’ s pushing at full speed a political agenda designed to give more power to the office of the president and build welfare networks to mobilize his voters and keep the legislative majority in the upcoming midterm elections of 2021 .
This is the bad news .
The worse news is that even most of those who have turned against Obrador keep clinging to the fantasy of the perfect government .
You hear it over and over in the opposition gatherings @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is in charge , he will change things for good.

So , why—even with proof of its failure right before their eyes—do people refuse to let that fantasy go ?
Just maybe it is because they fear the pain .
It is painful to give up the illusion of a benign tyrant who @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the land into green and gold .
