The World Health Organization ’ s special envoy on COVID-19 has urged world leaders to stop using lockdowns as the primary way to halt the spread of the coronavirus .
In a stunning statement , David Nabarro told The Spectator that the authoritarian approach is wholly unnecessary : “ We in the World Health Organization do not advocate lockdowns as the primary means of control of this virus , ” David Nabarro said .
“ The only time we believe a lockdown is justified is to buy you time to reorganize , regroup , rebalance your resources , protect your @ @ @ @ @ @ @ by and large , we ’ d rather not do it.
” Zerohedge.com reports : Nabarro pointed to the collateral damage that lockdowns are having worldwide , especially among poorer populations .
“ Just look at what ’ s happened to the tourism industry , for example in the Caribbean or in the Pacific , because people aren ’ t taking their holidays .
Look what ’ s happened to smallholder farmers all over the world because their markets have got dented .
Look what ’ s happening to poverty levels .
It @ @ @ @ @ @ @ doubling of world poverty by next year .
Seems that we may well have at least a doubling of child malnutrition because children are not getting meals at school and their parents , in poor families , are not able to afford it , ” Nabarro said .
A number of medical or public health scientists and medical practitioners have signed the Great Barrington Declaration , which states that “ current lockdown policies are producing devastating effects on short and long-term public health.
” The signatories include : “ Dr .
Martin Kulldorff @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and a biostatistician , and epidemiologist with expertise in detecting and monitoring of infectious disease outbreaks and vaccine safety evaluations , Dr. Sunetra Gupta , professor at Oxford University , an epidemiologist with expertise in immunology , vaccine development , and mathematical modeling of infectious diseases , and Dr. Jay Bhattacharya , professor at Stanford University Medical School , a physician , epidemiologist , health economist , and public health policy expert focusing on infectious diseases and vulnerable populations.
” With few exceptions , world leaders followed in the footsteps of the Chinese @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of the virus , imposing unprecedented lockdowns .
Sweden , which did not impose a lockdown , did not experience an adverse outcome compared to some locales and nations that did .
In the United States , President Donald Trump delegated the decisions on lockdown measures to the governors of individual states , but has pushed for the economy to be reopened , and lockdowns lifted .
As William Anderson recently wrote for The Mises Institute , lockdowns only serve the progressive political class… We have to understand that the political classes and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the lockdown status quo , and that includes regular provision of what only can be called disinformation .
The mainstream media this past summer dutifully reported a highly questionable ( I use that term charitably ) report that the Sturgis Bike Rally in South Dakota led to more than a quarter million covid infections and more than $ 12 billion of medical costs .
It should have been obvious on its face that the report was deeply flawed , yet in their desire to fuel the covid-is-killing-us narrative , journalists took this too-good-to-be-true @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for politicians , the covid crisis has been a godsend for those governmental executives and bureaucrats who see constitutional restrictions that limit their authority as mere obstacles to be easily swept away .
Governors such as Gretchen Whitmer of Michigan , Andrew Cuomo of New York , Gavin Newsom of California , and Tom Wolfe of Pennsylvania have received adoring coverage in the media for seizing and employing dictatorial powers , Whitmer even unilaterally deciding that the sale of garden seeds in stores was illegal .
Cuomo ’ s decision to force the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ led to the deaths of thousands of people , yet his national media coverage is uniformly positive .
Contrast the affirmative news coverage of Cuomo with the barrage of media attacks on Governor Kristi Noem of South Dakota .
Noem has emphasized personal responsibility and did not attempt mass closures of schools and businesses in the state , and the mainstream media erupted with fury .
That South Dakota has come through this pandemic relatively well does not matter with the media , as the only acceptable action ( to mainstream and elite @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for governors to single-handedly seize power and lock down their citizens .
Keep in mind that the real losses that Americans suffered because of the heavy-handed governmental response to the covid outbreak are permanent .
As Robert Higgs so eloquently pointed out in Crisis and Leviathan , governments often create crises or , at the very least , they manipulate events such as natural disasters and use them as opportunities to expand governmental powers .
Even after the crises end , governments keep some of their newly self-granted powers—and most people raise little @ @ @ @ @ @ @ curtailed more of their freedoms .
Presumably , this means Joe Biden will now be pushing for lockdowns to be lifted across all blue states ?
… because he is “ listening to the scientists ” ?
We wonder how long it will be before WHO also urges the end of mask-wearing ?
In the end , as Anderson concluded , the only way that the political classes can “ make us safe ” is for us to do what is necessary to make ourselves safe , or as relatively safe as possible @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the case most of the time—we do what we can to avoid it and do what we can to treat it .
In other words , we appeal to real medical science , not what the political and media classes have cooked up for us .

“We in the World Health Organization do not advocate lockdowns as the primary means of control of this virus,” David Nabarro said.
“The only time we believe a lockdown is justified is to buy you time to reorganize, regroup, rebalance your resources, protect your health workers who are exhausted, but by and large, we’d rather not do it.”
Zerohedge.com reports: Nabarro pointed to the collateral damage that lockdowns are having worldwide, especially among poorer populations.
“Just look at what’s happened to the tourism industry, for example in the Caribbean or in the Pacific, because people aren’t taking their holidays. Look what’s happened to smallholder farmers all over the world because their markets have got dented. Look what’s happening to poverty levels. It seems that we may well have a doubling of world poverty by next year. Seems that we may well have at least a doubling of child malnutrition because children are not getting meals at school and their parents, in poor families, are not able to afford it,” Nabarro said.
“This is a terrible, ghastly global catastrophe actually,” he added. “And so we really do appeal to all world leaders: Stop using lockdown as your primary control method, develop better systems for doing it, work together and learn from each other, but remember – lockdowns just have one consequence that you must never ever belittle, and that is making poor people an awful lot poorer.”

“The most compassionate approach that balances the risks and benefits of reaching herd immunity, is to allow those who are at minimal risk of death to live their lives normally to build up immunity to the virus through natural infection, while better protecting those who are at highest risk,” the declaration states.
With few exceptions, world leaders followed in the footsteps of the Chinese communist regime when responding to the outbreak of the virus, imposing unprecedented lockdowns. Sweden, which did not impose a lockdown, did not experience an adverse outcome compared to some locales and nations that did.
In the United States, President Donald Trump delegated the decisions on lockdown measures to the governors of individual states, but has pushed for the economy to be reopened, and lockdowns lifted.
As William Anderson recently wrote for The Mises Institute, lockdowns only serve the progressive political class…

It should have been obvious on its face that the report was deeply flawed, yet in their desire to fuel the covid-is-killing-us narrative, journalists took this too-good-to-be-true story and ran with it. As for politicians, the covid crisis has been a godsend for those governmental executives and bureaucrats who see constitutional restrictions that limit their authority as mere obstacles to be easily swept away. Governors such as Gretchen Whitmer of Michigan, Andrew Cuomo of New York, Gavin Newsom of California, and Tom Wolfe of Pennsylvania have received adoring coverage in the media for seizing and employing dictatorial powers, Whitmer even unilaterally deciding that the sale of garden seeds in stores was illegal. Cuomo’s decision to force the housing of covid-19 patients in nursing homes led to the deaths of thousands of people, yet his national media coverage is uniformly positive. Contrast the affirmative news coverage of Cuomo with the barrage of media attacks on Governor Kristi Noem of South Dakota. Noem has emphasized personal responsibility and did not attempt mass closures of schools and businesses in the state, and the mainstream media erupted with fury.

Presumably, this means Joe Biden will now be pushing for lockdowns to be lifted across all blue states?… because he is “listening to the scientists”?
“I would shut it down. I would listen to the scientists.”
Joe Biden tells @DavidMuir in an exclusive interview that as president, he would shut the country down to stop the spread of COVID-19 if the move was recommended by scientists. https://t.co/2A9r07d7EC pic.twitter.com/Ib99cshlSI — ABC News (@ABC) August 21, 2020

In the end, as Anderson concluded, the only way that the political classes can “make us safe” is for us to do what is necessary to make ourselves safe, or as relatively safe as possible. When a virus is afoot—as is the case most of the time—we do what we can to avoid it and do what we can to treat it. In other words, we appeal to real medical science, not what the political and media classes have cooked up for us.

newspunch--2020-10-11--BUSTED: Denver Shooter Matthew Dolloff’s Left-Wing Facebook Posts

The private security guard charged with first-degree murder in the shooting of a Trump supporter in Denver is a far-left anti-Trumper with a track record of radical left-wing social media postings .
It ’ s not surprising that Matthew Dolloff was quick to resort to extreme violence against conservatives when he views President Trump as a “ fascist dictator.
” Bigleaguepolitics.com reports : On Dolloff ’ s Twitter , he liked content pertaining to Bernie Sanders and Cenk Uygur , and posts that argued for the Confederate flag to be treated in a manner akin to the Nazi swastika .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ claim that Trump supporters were violently beating liberal activists , years before he shot a man armed only with spraying mace in the head at point blank range .
Dolloff shared content from hysterical MSNBC commentator Keith Olbermann , who most recently called for Trump supporters to be “ purged ” from American society .
The farm owner , who also seems to run some sort of music business , spoke of attending the 2016 DNC and getting arrested , possibly in support of Bernie Sanders .
Dolloff , 30 , was booked @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
He was caught on camera shooting a conservative demonstrator at point blank in the head , seemingly without provocation .
It ’ s very easy to imagine that Dolloff ’ s heinous shooting of a Patriot Prayer demonstrator was politically motivated .
The Denver Police had claimed that Dolloff was merely present at the scene of the dueling protests as a “ private security guard ” and that he has no affiliation with ANTIFA .
This is hard to believe in light of Dolloff ’ s extreme leftist social media content .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ merely an idea , in the words of Democratic nominee Joe Biden ?

The far leftist had the gall to claim that Trump supporters were violently beating liberal activists, years before he shot a man armed only with spraying mace in the head at point blank range.

The farm owner, who also seems to run some sort of music business, spoke of attending the 2016 DNC and getting arrested, possibly in support of Bernie Sanders.
Dolloff, 30, was booked into the Denver jail system early Sunday. He was caught on camera shooting a conservative demonstrator at point blank in the head, seemingly without provocation.
It’s very easy to imagine that Dolloff’s heinous shooting of a Patriot Prayer demonstrator was politically motivated.
The Denver Police had claimed that Dolloff was merely present at the scene of the dueling protests as a “private security guard” and that he has no affiliation with ANTIFA.
Update: Further investigation has determined the suspect is a private security guard with no affiliation with Antifa. Additional information will be released as it becomes available. — Denver Police Dept. (@DenverPolice) October 11, 2020
This is hard to believe in light of Dolloff’s extreme leftist social media content. After all, isn’t Antifa merely an idea, in the words of Democratic nominee Joe Biden?


newspunch--2020-10-11--Adam Schiff Calls for Electoral College To Be ABOLISHED

Democrat Rep. Adam Schiff has called for the Electoral College to be abolished in a stunning new interview .
On Friday night , Schiff told HBO host Bill Maher that the U.S. Constitution “ needs fundamental change.
” During the interview , Schiff said he would support rewriting the U.S. Constitution and introducing amendments that would end the Electoral College .
Newsweek.com reports : The California Democratic congressman said he would prefer to use “ discrete amendments ” to the Constitution that would overturn controversial money-in-politics Supreme Court rulings like Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission .
Maher said any @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is difficult because many Americans believe the constitution was “ literally delivered by Jesus.
” Both Schiff and Maher said they would be in favor of getting rid of the Electoral College system , which today would require two-thirds of the House , two-thirds of the Senate and three-fourth of all states to agree upon .
Operating within a governmental system and national populace as divided as America in 2020 , Schiff said , this is very unlikely to happen soon .
“ I think we ’ re better off focusing on discrete @ @ @ @ @ @ @ United and make sure that we can have elections untampered or uninfluenced by excessive expenditures and dark money .
And I would favor doing away with the Electoral College system , ” Schiff told the Real Time with Bill Maher host Friday.Ads by scrollerads.com A 2019 study conducted by researchers at the University of Texas at Austin found Republican candidates for president can expect to win 65 percent of future elections because the Electoral College system is set up to favor their party ’ s voting base .
The study analyzed why “ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ still loses the U.S. presidential election—have happened twice since 2000 .
And both times , the losers were Democratic candidates , Al Gore in 2000 and Hillary Clinton in 2016 .
The study concluded that completely abolishing the Electoral College and its 270 votes is the better solution , rather than policy changes which would chip away at its power-check on the popular vote .
Maher highlighted remarks made by the late Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg , who in 2012 said , “ I would not look to the U.S. Constitution @ @ @ @ @ @ @ drafting a Constitution in the year 2012.
” She noted that Canada and South Africa have better Constitutions to follow because they were drafted far more recently .
“ [ The Founders ] were great back then , but they were not Nostradamus , they couldn ’ t see a lot of s**t that was going to happen , ” Maher said .
“ This is a tough sell in a lot of America , where there ’ s people who believe that the Constitution was literally delivered by Jesus.
” Schiff , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and completely overhauling the Constitution back on Maher , noting that senate Republicans such as Majority Leader Mitch McConnell and Utah ’ s Mike Lee would likely be the people tasked with such an effort .
“ This is the problem , I don ’ t have any confidence frankly that we could improve on the word product of the framers with the crowd we have today .
So I like it in theory , ” Schiff added .
Maher , in comments later touted Saturday morning by the co-hosts of Fox & @ @ @ @ @ @ @ “ super high taxes ” have led to an exodus of residents from California in recent years .

RT reports: Biden and his running mate, Sen. Kamala Harris (D-California), have thus far dodged the question of whether they would pack the Supreme Court with more extra justices if Amy Coney Barrett is confirmed before November’s election.
Told in Las Vegas by a local reporter that his position on court packing, which he opposed during the Democratic Party’s presidential primary, is the “number one thing” viewers ask about, Biden dismissed the claim, saying, “Well you’ve been asked by the viewers who are probably Republicans who don’t want me continuing to talk about what they’re doing to the court right now.”
“Well, sir don’t the voters deserve to know…?” reporter Ross DiMattei asked.
“No they don’t deserve,” Biden said, then tearing into President Donald Trump without naming him. “I’m not gonna play his game, he’d love me to talk about, and I’ve already said something on court packing, he’d love that to be the discussion instead of what he’s doing now.”
“Well sir, don’t the voters deserve to know—“
“No, they don’t deserve” to know.
So not only is the Left not answering whether they will pack the courts, their standard-bearer thinks you *don’t deserve* to know whether they will. pic.twitter.com/cEj0dV5p6I — John Cooper (@thejcoop) October 10, 2020
Biden turning the court packing question into a matter of voters not “deserving” to know his position has raised alarm with critics.
“Strange theory of how elections are supposed to work,” author and Georgetown law professor Randy Barnett tweeted in reaction.
Remarkable.
Biden says voters don’t deserve to know if he’d overthrow one of the three branches of government.
With the ACB hearings coming up this week, the court packing controversy will get even worse for Biden, who REFUSES to answer. https://t.co/Tgmi7JR37V — Tim Murtaugh (@TimMurtaugh) October 10, 2020

newspunch--2020-10-11--Biden Claims The Only Way He Could Lose Election Is Through ‘Chicanery’ At The Polls

Joe Biden said on Saturday ‘ the only way ’ he could lose to President Trump was through ‘ chicanery ’ at polling places .
At a campaign event in Erie , Pennsylvania , Biden said : “ Here ’ s the deal guys , you ’ ve got ta make sure you go out and vote , because the only way we lose this is by the chicanery going on relative to polling places ” The Mail Online reports : Biden accused Trump of ‘ trying to put people in polling places .
The same guys you saw standing @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Virginia with banners and rifles slung across their shoulders.
’ He appeared to be referring to a pro-Trump demonstration at an early in-person polling site in Fairfax , Virginia on September 19 .
Photos and video from the event do not show anyone in the group openly carrying a firearm .
County election officials in Virginia said that the group stayed about 100 feet from the entrance to the building and , contrary to posts on social media , were not directly blocking access to the building .
However , they acknowledged that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ intimidated by the group , who waved American flags , Trump banners , and the flag of former South Vietnam , a common anti-Communist symbol .
They chanted ‘ four more years.
’ Before leaving the state , Biden told reporters his comments were ‘ taken a little out of context ’ and added that ‘ I ’ m going to accept the outcome of this election , period.
’ Biden has previously said that his single greatest concern was Trump trying to ‘ steal ’ the victory .
His campaign has recruited @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Election Day chaos .
Trump ’ s campaign has accused Biden of lying and stoking fear .
Trump himself has frequently disparaged mail-in voting , which is expected to rise to record levels this year due to the pandemic .
On Saturday , he retweeted out news articles regarding numerous examples of ballot fraud or blunders in printing and sending mail-in ballots .
The competing accusations have raised fears that neither side would accept defeat in November , and Trump has been circumspect about whether he would accept a loss .
When asked @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that he would accept the result of the election .
Election experts have been on edge about the process , given chaos and legal challenges during primary elections held amid the outbreak of the novel coronavirus .
On Friday , Biden once again refused to reveal his stance on packing the Supreme Court , saying voters ‘ don ’ t deserve ’ to know his position ahead of the November election .
The Democratic nominee reiterated his stance during an interview on Friday in Las Vegas , Nevada , while taking questions from @ @ @

The Mail Online reports: Biden accused Trump of ‘trying to put people in polling places. The same guys you saw standing, blocking people’s way in Virginia with banners and rifles slung across their shoulders.’
He appeared to be referring to a pro-Trump demonstration at an early in-person polling site in Fairfax, Virginia on September 19. Photos and video from the event do not show anyone in the group openly carrying a firearm.

County election officials in Virginia said that the group stayed about 100 feet from the entrance to the building and, contrary to posts on social media, were not directly blocking access to the building.
However, they acknowledged that some voters and polling staff members felt intimidated by the group, who waved American flags, Trump banners, and the flag of former South Vietnam, a common anti-Communist symbol. They chanted ‘four more years.’
Before leaving the state, Biden told reporters his comments were ‘taken a little out of context’ and added that ‘I’m going to accept the outcome of this election, period.’
Biden has previously said that his single greatest concern was Trump trying to ‘steal’ the victory. His campaign has recruited hundreds of lawyers and volunteers to prevent Election Day chaos.
Trump’s campaign has accused Biden of lying and stoking fear.
Trump himself has frequently disparaged mail-in voting, which is expected to rise to record levels this year due to the pandemic.
On Saturday, he retweeted out news articles regarding numerous examples of ballot fraud or blunders in printing and sending mail-in ballots.
The competing accusations have raised fears that neither side would accept defeat in November, and Trump has been circumspect about whether he would accept a loss.
When asked directly, Trump has repeatedly avoided confirming that he would accept the result of the election.
Election experts have been on edge about the process, given chaos and legal challenges during primary elections held amid the outbreak of the novel coronavirus.
On Friday, Biden once again refused to reveal his stance on packing the Supreme Court, saying voters ‘don’t deserve’ to know his position ahead of the November election.
The Democratic nominee reiterated his stance during an interview on Friday in Las Vegas , Nevada, while taking questions from the media.


newspunch--2020-10-12--Lawyers Prepare to Sue WHO for ‘Crimes Against Humanity’ Over COVID Lockdowns

Dr. Fuellmich explained the historic lawsuit in a video released on October 3 .
In the video , Fuellmich explains : “ Under the rules of civil tort law , all those who have been harmed by these PCR test-induced lockdowns are entitled to receive full compensation for their losses.
” “ In particular , there is a duty to compensate , i.e .
a duty to pay damages for the loss of profits suffered by companies and self-employed persons as a result of the lockdown and other measures.
” “ Not only are PCR tests expressly not approved for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ on leaflets coming with these tests , and as the inventor of the PCR test , Kary Mullis , has repeatedly emphasized , ” he continued .
“ Instead , they are simply incapable of diagnosing any disease.
” “ Contrary to the assertions of Drosten , Wieler and the WHO , which they have been making since the proclamation of the pandemic , a positive PCR test result does not mean that an infection is present , ” Fuellmich emphasized .
“ If someone tests positive , it does not mean that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ alone with a contagious SARS-CoV-2 virus.
” In this context , Fuellmich referred to a publication of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention ( CDC ) that stated , “ Detection of viral RNA may not indicate the presence of infectious virus or that 2019-nCoV is the causative agent for clinical symptoms.
” “ The PCR swabs take one or two sequences of a molecule that are invisible to the human eye and therefore need to be amplified in many cycles to make it visible , ” the lawyer explained .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ as reported by The New York Times and others — considered completely unreliable and scientifically unjustifiable.
” In fact , the PCR test used to test for COVID-19 was first developed by Drosten .
These tests , as Fuellmich said , “ are set to 45 cycles .
Can that be because of the desire to produce as many positive results as possible and thereby provide the basis for the false assumption that a large number of infections have been detected ?
” “ The test can not distinguish inactive and reproductive matter @ @ @ @ @ @ @ means that a positive result may happen because the test detects e.g .
a piece of debris , a fragment of a molecule , which may signal nothing else than that the immune system of the person tested won a battle with the common cold in the past.
” Even Drosten had recognized this problem in 2014 , Fuellmich argued , when the virologist said in the context of MERS , another viral respiratory illness , “ If , for example , such a pathogen scurries over the nasal mucosa of a nurse @ @ @ @ @ @ @ getting sick or noticing anything else , then she is suddenly a MERS case.
” Fuellmich summarized , “ In short : This test can not detect any infection , contrary to all false claims stating that it can .
An infection , a so-called hot infection , requires that the virus , or rather : a fragment of a molecule which may be a virus is not just found somewhere , e. g. in the throat of a person without causing any damage ( that would be a cold infection ) .

”

An international group of lawyers is preparing a lawsuit against the World Health Organization for “crimes against humanity” over the draconian COVID-19 lockdowns worldwide.
The lawyers, led by California-based attorney Dr. Reiner Fuellmich, are demanding the public receives “full compensation for their losses” if they have been “harmed” by harsh coronavirus lockdown restrictions.

Lifesitenews.com reports: Contrary to assertions by the WHO, German virologist Christian Drosten and Lothar Wieler of the German Robert Koch-Institut (roughly equivalent to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention), PCR tests “do not give any indication of an infection with any virus, let alone an infection with SARS-CoV-2,” Fuellmich said.
“Not only are PCR tests expressly not approved for diagnostic purposes, as is correctly noted on leaflets coming with these tests, and as the inventor of the PCR test, Kary Mullis, has repeatedly emphasized,” he continued. “Instead, they are simply incapable of diagnosing any disease.”

Fox News host Maria Bartiromo asked POTUS during “ Sunday Morning Futures ” about the Department of Defense ’ s announcement that the Pentagon launched a task force to investigate sightings of unidentified flying objects in August .
The task force is called the Unidentified Aerial Phenomena Task Force ( UAPTF ) .
“ Mr .

“ I mean , I ’ ve heard that .

The equipment that we have , the weapons that we have — and hopefully , hope to God we never have to use them.
” “ Russia , China , they ’ re @ @ @ @ @ @ @ had , ” Trump added .
“ All built in the USA .
We ’ ve rebuilt it , $ 2.5 trillion .
As far as the other question , I ’ ll check on it .

Insider.com reports: The president went on to discuss the military and later reiterated his promise to “check on” UFOs.
“I will tell you this,” he said when asked about the UAPTF by Bartiromo. “We now have created a military, the likes of which we’ve never had before in terms of equipment. The equipment that we have, the weapons that we have — and hopefully, hope to God we never have to use them.”
“Russia, China, they’re all envious of what we’ve had,” Trump added. “All built in the USA. We’ve rebuilt it, $2.5 trillion. As far as the other question, I’ll check on it. I heard about it two days ago actually.”
Insider’s Haven Orecchio-Egresitz previously reported that “politicians and Pentagon officials have previously expressed concerns about the appearance of ‘unidentified aerial phenomenon’flying over US military bases.”
“In April, the Pentagon declassified three videos of ‘unidentified aerial phenomena,'” Orecchio-Egresitz wrote. “The next month, the Navy released several incident reports from encounters with unidentified flying objects (UFOs) — a generic term for any aerospace asset that is unidentifiable, rather than confirmation as an actual aerial object piloted by extraterrestrials.”
Trump has expressed skepticism when asked about UFOs in the past
In June 2019, Trump told ABC News that he had “one very brief meeting” to discuss US Navy reports of UFOs. At the time, he said he didn’t necessarily believe the reports, but wanted pilots to “think whatever they think.”
“I think it’s probably — I want them to think whatever they think,” Trump told George Stephanopoulos. “They do say, and I’ve seen, and I’ve read, and I’ve heard, and I did have one very brief meeting on it. But people are saying they’re seeing UFOs.”
“Do I believe it? Not particularly,” he added.

Democrat presidential nominee Joe Biden quoted one of the worst mass-murderers of the 20th century , the late Chinese Communist Party leader Mao Zedong , during an interview on Arizona television last week .
The deluded anchor from KTVK described Biden ’ s troubling statement as evidence of his “ passionate ” commitment to women .
Biden said : “ There ’ s an old expression attributed to the Chinese years ago .
It said , ‘ Women hold up half the sky.
’ Guess what ?
the reason no country will be able to compete for world economic prominence @ @ @ @ @ @ @ their society.
” The “ Chinese ” source for the quote is Chairman Mao , the founder of communist China and one of the worst mass-murderers of the 20th century .
Breitbart report : Biden has quoted Mao before .

Life Will Return To Normal Only After 2nd Generation Of Covid Vaccines Are Rolled Out Says Bill Gates

Life will only return to normal after a second generation of Covid vaccines are rolled out and the virus is eliminated globally according to technology tycoon Bill Gates….a higher bar than was set for any disease in history .
“ The only way we ’ ll get completely back to normal is by having , maybe not the first generation of vaccines , but eventually a vaccine that is super-effective , and that a lot of the people take , and that we get the disease eliminated on a global basis , ” Gates , who is neither a doctor @ @ @ @ @ @ @ during an interview on NBC ’ s Meet the Press program .
He continuued : “ That is where we can finally start taking all the problems that have been created — in education , mental health — and start to build back in a positive way ” RT reports : According to that standard , Americans might need to live for years , or for life , under social-distancing guidelines and other Covid-19 restrictions .
It ’ s certainly gloomier than the assessment Gates gave in a Fox interview last month , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ make it possible for a return to normalcy in the US by the summer of 2021 .
He said he expects several of the first generation of vaccines to get emergency approval by early next year .
Gates blasted the US Covid-19 response as one of the worst in the world , except for the Trump administration ’ s aggressive investments in vaccine development .
“ There are lots of additional deaths coming if we don ’ t get our act together , ” the billionaire philanthropist told NBC host Chuck Todd .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ often don ’ t come back within 24 hours , a problem that could be alleviated by not reimbursing “ for these worthless things.
” He said the US Covid-19 testing system is the worst of any country “ in terms of who gets access to it.
” “ You do have to admit that you haven ’ t done a good job and make some straightforward changes , ” he added .
That message won ’ t likely resonate with President Donald Trump , who has hailed his administration ’ s Covid-19 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ saved potentially millions of lives , although 215,000 Americans have reportedly died from the virus .
Trump himself tested positive for Covid-19 on Oct. 1 and said he was cured by an experimental monoclonal-antibody treatment .

They join opposition to policies that the World Health Organization has now backtracked on.

The declaration is unequivocal in its alarm, urging Australian states to repeal the control program: “Left unchecked, the Victorian government risks creating the state’s worst ever public health crisis.” The lockdowns, it explains, cause harm to all age groups: children who are denied the social interaction vital for growing into healthy adults, adults who risk not being diagnosed with chronic disease because all medical resources are focused on Covid-19, elderly who risk dying in care homes into which infected patients are carelessly introduced.
“The response to the virus will cause more deaths and result in far more negative health effects than the virus itself.“
While the declaration was posted last week on the website of the Australian Covid Medical Network, it sat gathering dust for days – hyped on social media but ignored by the Australian establishment – until it presumably could no longer be ignored.
