thelibertybeacon--2020-04-02--What You Should Know About 5G Satellites—How Musk’s Sci-Fi Dreams Are Becoming Our Living Nightmare

What You Should Know About 5G Satellites—How Musk ’ s Sci-Fi Dreams Are Becoming Our Living Nightmare Companies and governments have plans to launch approximately 50,000 satellites to provide 5G and Wi-Fi services everywhere on Earth .
Elon Musk ’ s SpaceX is leading these efforts with its planned deployment of 42,000 Starlink satellites and its goal of establishing a global network .
To provide service , SpaceX states that it requires an infrastructure of one million on-the-ground antennas to connect its satellites with the ground user .
In March 2020 , the Federal Communications Commission ( FCC ) approved @ @ @ @ @ @ @ The almost 400 satellites launched to date are approaching the threshold number at which SpaceX says it can begin supplying 5G coverage from space .
This year , SpaceX plans to accelerate its satellite launches to an average of 120 per month ( 60 every two weeks ) .
These low-orbit satellites not only already contaminate our night skies and interfere with astronomy but also promise to flood Earth with powerful , focused electromagnetic beams that emit radiofrequency ( RF ) and microwave radiation proven to adversely affect the health of humans , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ may have an impact on Earth ’ s natural electromagnetic field—essential to all life on our planet—yet no national or international agency has taken action to evaluate , reduce , prevent or publicize the environmental impact of the satellites ’ emissions .
Meanwhile , significant effects are already occurring .
Satellite companies must submit applications to the FCC because satellites use radiofrequencies that are under the agency ’ s purview .
Just like other federal agencies , the FCC is subject to National Environmental Policy Act ( NEPA ) requirements , established in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to evaluate the environmental effects of its actions .
To meet its procedural responsibilities under NEPA as well as stipulations of the 1996 Telecommunications Act , the FCC , in 1996 , adopted non-mandatory exposure standards for wireless radiation .
These standards are highly flawed because they only acknowledge thermal but not non-thermal harms and ignore the established harms of pulsed and modulated signals .
Moreover , there are no penalties for exceeding the standards .
The FCC has never assessed the impact of radiation emissions from 50,000 satellites or any other existing @ @ @ @ @ @ @ likely reason is that the FCC interprets its obligations as only requiring assessment of terrestrial activities and devices due to legal language specifying that it focus on structures defined as a “ pole , tower , base station , or other building ” —with no explicit mention of satellites .
As a result , the FCC has felt free to approve ( without any environmental assessment ) close to 12,000 SpaceX satellites so far , and SpaceX has filed paperwork with the FCC for another 30,000 .
Of the 12,000 , the company @ @ @ @ @ @ @ between 715 and 823 miles above the planet ’ s surface ) but later amended its application to put about a third of those in a lower 342-mile orbit .
The remaining 7,500-plus satellites have permission to go into “ very low ” Earth orbit—that is , altitudes barely more than 200 miles above the Earth .
According to SpaceX , these ultra-low-orbit satellites are necessary to reduce latency and increase transmission speeds in congested cities , while also enabling the company to extend Wi-Fi coverage globally .
As if radiation from tens @ @ @ @ @ @ @ enough , the FCC ’ s blanket license for up to a million ground transmitters allows SpaceX Services ( a SpaceX subsidiary ) to install terminals that will use “ advanced beamforming and steerable antenna technology ” to wirelessly connect end-users ( human and machine ) on the ground with the orbiting satellites .
These “ consumer-facing device [ s ] ” could place radiation-emitting terminals directly in homes .
Elon Musk summarizes the two-step installation of the ground antenna as “ point at sky [ and ] plug in.
” The Starlink @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the microwave frequencies spectrum called the “ ku-band ” ( 11-17 GHz ) ; the ground stations would transmit at 14-14.5 GHz while receiving signals from the satellites at 10.7-12.7 GHz .
This is vastly different from current LTE networks , which operate from 700 MHz to around 6 GHz .
SpaceX may be the dominant player , but it is far from the only U.S. company with plans to slather “ every inch of the world ” with emissions from low-orbit 5G satellites .
Amazon—angling for a potential four billion new customers—plans @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and promises to start delivering Internet services as soon as a fifth of them are in place .
Facebook is also planning for thousands of satellites .
Finally , the Google subsidiary Loon has begun targeting “ unserved and underserved communities ” in Latin America for LTE service provided by its network of stratospheric balloons traveling on “ the edge of space.
” One of the major non-U.S. players taking part in the “ satellite Internet gold rush ” is the UK-based company OneWeb ( backed by SoftBank Group Corp. ) , which @ @ @ @ @ @ @ satellites in February 2019 , followed by another 34 satellites in February 2020 .
At the time of the February launch , OneWeb announced its intention to keep up launches of 30 to 36 satellites every month , with “ full commercial global services ” by 2021 , well before OneWeb ’ s eventual total of 5,260 satellites .
However , a March 19 Bloomberg report stated that OneWeb may file for bankruptcy “ as it grapples with high costs and stiff competition.

The harmful impacts of non-thermal levels of RF- and microwave-based wireless technology ( from 2G on up ) are neither “ potential ” nor “ hypothetical.

Some argue that the energy emissions reaching the ground from 5G satellites are less intense than the emissions from ground-based transmitter antennas , but this argument ignores the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of Earth , including areas not reached by other transmitters , leaving no place untouched by harmful manmade radiation .
Moreover , the on-the-ground transmitters that 5G satellites require to connect satellites with end-users—one million for SpaceX alone—will result in massively increased intensities of RF/microwave radiation .
In 2018 , more than 200 scientists and doctors cited the large body of scientific evidence of harm when they submitted the 5G Appeal to the United Nations , calling for a moratorium on 5G .
In the Appeal , these experts wrote that radiofrequency electromagnetic @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to be harmful for humans and the environment ” but that “ [ d ] amage goes well beyond the human race , ” with “ growing evidence of harmful effects to both plants and animals.

What You Should Know About 5G Satellites—How Musk’s Sci-Fi Dreams Are Becoming Our Living Nightmare

To meet its procedural responsibilities under NEPA as well as stipulations of the 1996 Telecommunications Act, the FCC, in 1996, adopted non-mandatory exposure standards for wireless radiation.

Of the 12,000, the company initially proposed placing 4,425 into low-Earth-orbit (between 715 and 823 miles above the planet’s surface) but later amended its application to put about a third of those in a lower 342-mile orbit.

According to SpaceX, these ultra-low-orbit satellites are necessary to reduce latency and increase transmission speeds in congested cities, while also enabling the company to extend Wi-Fi coverage globally.
As if radiation from tens of thousands of satellites were not concerning enough, the FCC’s blanket license for up to a million ground transmitters allows SpaceX Services (a SpaceX subsidiary) to install terminals that will use “advanced beamforming and steerable antenna technology” to wirelessly connect end-users (human and machine) on the ground with the orbiting satellites. These “consumer-facing device[s]” could place radiation-emitting terminals directly in homes. Elon Musk summarizes the two-step installation of the ground antenna as “point at sky [and] plug in.”
The Starlink satellite constellations operate in the portion of the microwave frequencies spectrum called the “ku-band” (11-17 GHz); the ground stations would transmit at 14-14.5 GHz while receiving signals from the satellites at 10.7-12.7 GHz. This is vastly different from current LTE networks, which operate from 700 MHz to around 6 GHz.
A “gold rush”
SpaceX may be the dominant player, but it is far from the only U.S. company with plans to slather “every inch of the world” with emissions from low-orbit 5G satellites. Amazon—angling for a potential four billion new customers—plans to launch a total of 3,236 satellites and promises to start delivering Internet services as soon as a fifth of them are in place. Facebook is also planning for thousands of satellites. Finally, the Google subsidiary Loon has begun targeting “unserved and underserved communities” in Latin America for LTE service provided by its network of stratospheric balloons traveling on “the edge of space.”
One of the major non-U.S. players taking part in the “satellite Internet gold rush” is the UK-based company OneWeb (backed by SoftBank Group Corp.), which launched an initial batch of six 5G satellites in February 2019, followed by another 34 satellites in February 2020.

In Canada, officials from Telesat affirm that their low-Earth-orbit satellite deployments “could ultimately scale to 512 spacecraft.” China and Russia likewise have plans for multiple launches.
…damage goes well beyond the human race, with growing evidence of harmful effects to both plants and animals. …damage goes well beyond the human race, with growing evidence of harmful effects to both plants and animals.

Earth’s natural electromagnetic system
In addition to the 5G Appeal, an International Appeal to Stop 5G on Earth and in Space is warning about the potential of the satellites to interfere with the global electric circuit. As of March 29, 2020, the Appeal had garnered signatures from 212,661 people from 208 nations and territories worldwide. It warns that if tens of thousands of satellites make it into low-Earth and very-low-Earth orbit, they will emit extremely powerful, pulsating beams of artificial RF and microwave radiation into the Earth’s ionosphere. The ionosphere—a natural source of high voltage always charged to an average of 300,000 volts—controls the global electrical circuit (constant for three billion years) that connects and vitalizes every living thing, whether bird, animal, tree or human. All life depends on this electromagnetic circuit for survival, yet in one fell swoop, 5G satellites have the potential to alter it “beyond our ability to adapt” [emphasis added].

Funding our own nightmare
The Los Angeles Times has noted that Elon Musk has built his “empire” with billions in U.S. government—that is, taxpayer—subsidies. In 2017, reporters critically noted that “Like a reverse Robin Hood, Musk isn’t robbing from the rich and giving to the poor: He’s robbing from the working class and keeping it for himself.” Now, Musk is seeking an additional $16 billion in government subsidies for SpaceX. We all hope he will not get it, as Musk’s science-fiction dreams are fast becoming our nightmare reality.

“ Germany plays Russian roulette with Covid-19 , welcomes refugees from high-risk infection zones , ” authored by Robert Bridge , via RT… As the Covid-19 pandemic rages on , Germany has shut its @ @ @ @ @ @ @ being accepted , even if they may have moved through the worst-affected countries .
Is that the right signal to a locked-down populace ?
The media paid much attention to an awkward moment earlier this month , when German Chancellor Angela Merkel attempted to shake hands with her interior minister , Horst Seehofer , as the number of coronavirus cases was on the uptick .
The minister did the seemingly unthinkable and declined Merkel ’ s advances , forcing the ‘ social-distancing ’ mantra on his superior .
An outburst of laughter defused @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
Whether the scene was staged or not we may never know , but it did succeed in driving home the unmistakable message : keep your dirty paws to yourself and we may all get through this pandemic alive .
Despite the disappearance of handshaking , however , Covid-19 has mushroomed across Germany .
This week , the number of confirmed cases has been surging by over 4,000 cases a day , making the European Union ’ s largest economy one of the hardest-hit in terms of people infected .
By Thursday ’ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ infected and 198 had died from the mysterious .
Germany has imposed harsh travel restrictions , essentially entering a bunker mentality amid creeping hysteria seizing the country .

“Germany plays Russian roulette with Covid-19, welcomes refugees from high-risk infection zones,” authored by Robert Bridge, via RT…
As the Covid-19 pandemic rages on, Germany has shut its borders – but asylum seekers are still being accepted, even if they may have moved through the worst-affected countries. Is that the right signal to a locked-down populace?
The media paid much attention to an awkward moment earlier this month, when German Chancellor Angela Merkel attempted to shake hands with her interior minister, Horst Seehofer, as the number of coronavirus cases was on the uptick. The minister did the seemingly unthinkable and declined Merkel’s advances, forcing the ‘social-distancing’ mantra on his superior. An outburst of laughter defused any discomfort the moment may have caused.
Whether the scene was staged or not we may never know, but it did succeed in driving home the unmistakable message: keep your dirty paws to yourself and we may all get through this pandemic alive. Despite the disappearance of handshaking, however, Covid-19 has mushroomed across Germany. This week, the number of confirmed cases has been surging by over 4,000 cases a day, making the European Union’s largest economy one of the hardest-hit in terms of people infected. By Thursday’s count, over 36,000 Germans were infected and 198 had died from the mysterious.
Germany has imposed harsh travel restrictions, essentially entering a bunker mentality amid creeping hysteria seizing the country. Only German nationals or foreign citizens with an “urgent reason to travel” may cross the border. Shockingly, however, refugees from the Middle East and Africa arriving at Germany’s border in search of asylum are given the red carpet treatment into the country.
While it may be difficult to argue against providing humanitarian assistance to refugees under ‘normal circumstances,’ what’s the point in imposing a transnational quarantine if you’re going to let in a select category of people whose movements can’t be tracked for infection safety?
To do so in the middle of a deadly global pandemic is a bit like puffing away on a cigarette at a gas station. At the very least it makes for some very poor optics.
After all, Germany is currently experiencing living conditions not witnessed since World War II. Even in the capital, Berlin, panic buying has led to empty store shelves amidst a foreboding climate of helplessness and despair. To compound the mounting frustration, Germans, a traditionally gregarious people famous for their Oktoberfest revelries, have been ordered not to congregate in groups larger than two people, although families have been spared from this harsh rule. The average German may even have temporarily forgotten about his own plight when it was reported that Angela Merkel had been forced into quarantine after her doctor tested positive for the disease.
Meanwhile, it cannot be ignored that the European Union is currently ground zero for new coronavirus outbreaks. Nowhere is that more evident than in Italy, which is currently under a mandatory nationwide quarantine with the death toll spilling over 8,000. Germany is not immune to the emergency facing Italy, nor is the rest of the European continent. Just this week, six Italians infected with Covid-19 arrived in Germany for medical treatment, with at least another 10 patients expected in the coming days.
Aside from the question as to whether Germany’s medical facilities can handle the growing demand is an equally problematic issue: should Germany be granting asylum to refugees who have not only entered the European Union illegally, but have necessarily traveled through high-infection countries, like Italy and Spain, in their personal quest to receive asylum?
A critical point to remember is that if a refugee makes it to the German border, that can mean only one thing: that individual has more than likely broken the quarantine rules now being enforced across Italy and Spain, the two primary points of entry for migrants making their way to Europe from the Middle East and Africa via the Mediterranean Sea. In other words, any refugee now standing on Germany’s doorstep looking for asylum has traversed long distances through high-infection zones, possibly even infecting people along the way.
Although German authorities have established quarantine rules for new arrivals, not all of the refugees are keeping to their accommodations. For example, after one asylum seeker tested positive for coronavirus at the Suhl asylum center in the German state of Thuringia, some 500 migrants from the facility began to riot after being placed into quarantine. Around 200 police officers were called in to reestablish order. Despite such measures, it does seem possible for coronavirus-carrying refugees to infect people once they are granted admission to Germany. After all, no prevention method, even a nationwide lockdown, is absolutely fool-proof; mistakes can happen anywhere and at any time. In any case, optics at this sensitive moment are critical.
Now would seem to be the perfect opportunity for Germany to send an unmistakable message, much like Greece is doing as it works to repel the hundreds of refugees gathered at its border with Turkey – that the EU-wide quarantine is for all people, regardless of their situation, not just fellow Europeans. Germany’s past decision to open its border to millions of illegal aliens from abroad was controversial enough, leading to major setbacks for Merkel’s Christian Democrats. To continue the practice now amid a global pandemic is at least politically reckless.
It seems inevitable that many people will come to view Germany’s ‘helping hand’ to refugees during a pandemic as simply too dangerous at a time when even handshakes among government officials are considered taboo. Europe needs to cure itself before re-embarking on the admirable cause of rescuing refugees from their plight, possibly at the expense of its own citizens’ safety.

thelibertybeacon--2020-04-03--Ground Control to Planet Lockdown: “The Existing World-System Has To Go”

As much as Covid-19 is a circuit breaker , a time bomb and an actual weapon of mass destruction ( WMD ) , a fierce debate is raging worldwide on the wisdom of mass quarantine applied to entire cities , states and nations .
Those against it argue Planet Lockdown not only is not stopping the spread of Covid-19 but also has landed the global economy into a cryogenic state – with unforeseen , dire consequences .
Thus quarantine should apply essentially to the population with the greatest risk of death : the elderly .
With Planet Lockdown transfixed by @ @ @ @ @ @ @ there ’ s no question this is an incendiary assertion .
In parallel , a total corporate media takeover is implying that if the numbers do not substantially go down , Planet Lockdown – an euphemism for house arrest – remains , indefinitely .
Michael Levitt , 2013 Nobel Prize in chemistry and Stanford biophysicist , was spot on when he calculated that China would get through the worst of Covid-19 way before throngs of health experts believed , and that “ What we need is to control the panic ” .
Let @ @ @ @ @ @ @ facts and dissident opinion , in the interest of fostering an informed debate .
The report Covid-19 – Navigating the Uncharted was co-authored by Dr. Anthony Fauci – the White House face of the fight , H. Clifford Lane , and CDC director Robert R. Redfield .
So it comes from the heart of the U.S. healthcare establishment .
The report explicitly states , “ the overall clinical consequences of Covid-19 may ultimately be more akin to those of a severe seasonal influenza ( which has a case fatality rate of approximately 0.1 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ similar to those in 1957 and 1968 ) rather than a disease similar to SARS or MERS , which have had case fatality rates of 9 to 10 % and 36 % , respectively.
” On March 19 , four days before Downing Street ordered the British lockdown , Covid-19 was downgraded from the status of “ High Consequence Infectious Disease.
” John Lee , recently retired professor of pathology and former NHS consultant pathologist , has recently argued that , “ the world ’ s 18,944 coronavirus deaths represent 0.14 per cent @ @ @ @ @ @ @ shoot up but they are , right now , lower than other infectious diseases that we live with ( such as flu ) .
” He recommends , “ a degree of social distancing should be maintained for a while , especially for the elderly and the immune-suppressed .
But when drastic measures are introduced , they should be based on clear evidence .
In the case of Covid-19 , the evidence is not clear.
” That ’ s essentially the same point developed by a Russian military intel analyst .
No less @ @ @ @ @ @ @ here – have expanded on their doubts about the Western strategy .
Dr. Sucharit Bhakdi , Professor Emeritus of Medical Microbiology at the Johannes Gutenberg University in Mainz , has provoked immense controversy with his open letter to Chancellor Merkel , stressing the “ truly unforeseeable consequences of the drastic containment measures which are currently being applied in large parts of Europe.
” Even New York governor Andrew Cuomo admitted on the record about the error of quarantining elderly people with illnesses alongside the fit young population .
The absolutely key issue is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for the spread of Covid-19 – even after being provided a head start of two months by China , and having the time to study different successful strategies applied across Asia .
There are no secrets for the success of the South Korean model .
South Korea was producing test kits already in early January , and by March was testing 100,000 people a day , after establishing strict control of the whole population – to Western cries of “ no protection of private life ” .
That was before the West embarked @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was all about testing early , often and safely – in tandem with quick , thorough contact tracing , isolation and surveillance .
Covid-19 carriers are monitored with the help of video-surveillance cameras , credit card purchases , smartphone records .
Add to it SMS sent to everyone when a new case is detected near them or their place of work .
Those in self-isolation need an app to be constantly monitored ; non-compliance means a fine to the equivalent of $ 2,800 .
In early March , the Chinese Journal of Infectious @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Association , pre-published an Expert Consensus on Comprehensive Treatment of Coronavirus in Shanghai .
Treatment recommendations included , “ large doses of vitamin C…injected intravenously at a dose of 100 to 200 mg / kg per day .
The duration of continuous use is to significantly improve the oxygenation index.
” That ’ s the reason why 50 tons of Vitamin C was shipped to Hubei province in early February .
It ’ s a stark example of a simple “ mitigation ” solution capable of minimizing economic catastrophe .
In contrast , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ fast Chinese “ people ’ s war ” counterpunch against Covid-19 had caught Washington totally unprepared .
Steady intel rumbles on the Chinese net point to Beijing having already studied all plausible leads towards the origin of the Sars-Cov-2 virus – vital information that will be certainly weaponized , Sun Tzu style , at the right time .
As it stands , the sustainability of the complex Eurasian integration project has not been substantially compromised .
As the EU has provided the whole planet with a graphic demonstration of its cluelessness and helplessness @ @ @ @ @ @ @ gets stronger – increasingly investing in soft power and advancing a pan-Eurasia dialogue which includes , crucially , medical help .
Facing this process , the EU ’ s top diplomat , Joseph Borrell , sounds indeed so helpless : That takes us to really explosive territory .
A critique of the Planet Lockdown strategy inevitably raises serious questions pointing to a controlled demolition of the global economy .
What is already in stark effect are myriad declinations of martial law , severe social media policing in Ministry of Truth mode , and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ These are unequivocal markings of a massive social re-engineering project , complete with inbuilt full monitoring , population control and social distancing promoted as the new normal .
That would be taking to the limit Secretary of State Mike “ we lie , we cheat , we steal ” Pompeo ’ s assertion , on the record , that Covid-19 is a live military exercise : “ This matter is going forward — we are in a live exercise here to get this right.
” So as we face a New Great Depression @ @ @ @ @ @ @ World are already discernible .
It goes way beyond a mere Bretton Woods 2.0 , in the manner that Pam and Russ Martens superbly deconstruct the recent $ 2 trillion , Capitol Hill-approved stimulus to the U.S. economy .
Essentially , the Fed will “ leverage the bill ’ s $ 454 million bailout slush fund into $ 4.5 trillion ” .
And no questions are allowed on who gets the money , because the bill simply cancels the Freedom of Information Act ( FOIA ) for the Fed .
The privileged private @ @ @ @ @ @ @ other than BlackRock .
Here ’ s the extremely short version of the whole , astonishing scheme , masterfully detailed here .
Wall Street has turned the Fed into a hedge fund .
The Fed is going to own at least two thirds of all U.S. Treasury bills wallowing in the market before the end of the year .
The U.S. Treasury will be buying every security and loan in sight while the Fed will be the banker – financing the whole scheme .
So essentially this is a Fed/ Treasury merger .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ – with BlackRock as the indisputable winner .
BlackRock is widely known as the biggest money manager on the planet .
Their tentacles are everywhere .
They own 5 % of Apple , 5 % of Exxon Mobil , 6 % of Google , second largest shareholder of AT & T ( Turner , HBO , CNN , Warner Brothers ) – these are just a few examples .
They will buy all these securities and manage those dodgy special Purpose Vehicles ( SPVs ) on behalf of the Treasury .
BlackRock not @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Sachs .
Better yet : Blackrock is bigger than Goldman Sachs , JP Morgan and Deutsche Bank combined .
BlackRock is a serious Trump donor .
Now , for all practical purposes , it will be the operating system – the Chrome , Firefox , Safari – of Fed/Treasury .
This represents the definitive Wall Street-ization of the Fed – with no evidence whatsoever it will lead to any improvement in the lives of the average American .
Western corporate media , en masse , have virtually ignored the myriad , devastating economic @ @ @ @ @ @ @ wall coverage barely mentions the astonishing economic human wreckage already in effect – especially for the masses barely surviving , so far , in the informal economy .
For all practical purposes , the Global War on Terror ( GWOT ) has been replaced by the Global War on Virus ( GWOV ) .
But what is not being seriously analyzed is the Perfect Toxic Storm : a totally shattered economy ; The Mother of All Financial Crashes – barely masked by the trillions in helicopter money from the Fed and the ECB @ @ @ @ @ @ @ engendered by the New Great Depression ; the millions of small businesses that will simply disappear ; a widespread , global mental health crisis .
Not to mention the masses of elderly , especially in the U.S. , that will be issued an unspoken “ drop dead ” notice .
Beyond any rhetoric about “ decoupling ” , the global economy is already , de facto , split in two .
On one side , we have Eurasia , Africa and swathes of Latin America – what China will be painstakingly connecting and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ On the other side , we have North America and selected Western vassals .
A puzzled Europe lies in the middle .
A cryogenically induced global economy certainly facilitates a reboot .
Trumpism is the New Exceptionalism – so that means an isolationist MAGA on steroids .
In contrast , China will painstakingly reboot its market base along the New Silk Roads – Africa and Latin America included – to replace the 20 % of trade/exports to be lost with the U.S .
The meager $ 1,200 checks promised to Americans are a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Universal Basic Income ( UBI ) .
They may become permanent as tens of millions of people will be permanently unemployed .
That will facilitate the transition towards a totally automated , 24/7 economy run by AI – thus the importance of 5G .
And that ’ s where ID2020 comes in .
The European Commission is involved in a crucial but virtually unknown project , CREMA ( Cloud Based Rapid Elastic Manufacturing ) which aims to facilitate the widest possible implementation of AI in conjunction to the advent of a cashless One-World @ @ @ @ @ @ @ implies a One-World government capable of dispensing – and controlling – UBI ; a de facto full accomplishment of Foucault ’ s studies on biopolitics .
Anyone is liable to be erased from the system if an algorithm equals this individual with dissent .
It gets even sexier when absolute social control is promoted as an innocent vaccine .
ID2020 is self-described as a benign alliance of “ public-private partners ” .
Essentially , it is an electronic ID platform based on generalized vaccination .
And its starts at birth ; newborns will @ @ @ @ @ @ @ persistent biometrically-linked digital identity.
” GAVI , the Global Alliance for Vaccines and Immunization , pledges to “ protect people ’ s health “ and provide “ immunization for all ” .
Top partners and sponsors , apart from the WHO , include , predictably , Big Pharma .
At the ID2020 Alliance summit last September in New York , it was decided that the “ Rising to the Good ID Challenge ” program would be launched in 2020 .
That was confirmed by the World Economic Forum ( WEF ) this past @ @ @ @ @ @ @ will be tested with the government of Bangladesh .
That poses a serious question : was ID2020 timed to coincide with what a crucial sponsor , the WHO , qualified as a pandemic ?
Or was a pandemic absolutely crucial to justify the launch of ID2020 ?
As game-changing trial runs go , nothing of course beats Event 201 , which took place less than a month after ID2020 .
The Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security in partnership with , once again , the WEF , as well as the Bill and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ as “ a high-level pandemic exercise ” .

As much as Covid-19 is a circuit breaker, a time bomb and an actual weapon of mass destruction (WMD), a fierce debate is raging worldwide on the wisdom of mass quarantine applied to entire cities, states and nations.
Those against it argue Planet Lockdown not only is not stopping the spread of Covid-19 but also has landed the global economy into a cryogenic state – with unforeseen, dire consequences. Thus quarantine should apply essentially to the population with the greatest risk of death: the elderly.
With Planet Lockdown transfixed by heart-breaking reports from the Covid-19 frontline, there’s no question this is an incendiary assertion.
In parallel, a total corporate media takeover is implying that if the numbers do not substantially go down, Planet Lockdown – an euphemism for house arrest – remains, indefinitely.
Michael Levitt, 2013 Nobel Prize in chemistry and Stanford biophysicist, was spot on when he calculated that China would get through the worst of Covid-19 way before throngs of health experts believed, and that “What we need is to control the panic”.
Let’s cross this over with some facts and dissident opinion, in the interest of fostering an informed debate.
The report Covid-19 – Navigating the Uncharted was co-authored by Dr. Anthony Fauci – the White House face of the fight, H. Clifford Lane, and CDC director Robert R. Redfield. So it comes from the heart of the U.S. healthcare establishment.
The report explicitly states, “the overall clinical consequences of Covid-19 may ultimately be more akin to those of a severe seasonal influenza (which has a case fatality rate of approximately 0.1%) or a pandemic influenza (similar to those in 1957 and 1968) rather than a disease similar to SARS or MERS, which have had case fatality rates of 9 to 10% and 36%, respectively.”
On March 19, four days before Downing Street ordered the British lockdown, Covid-19 was downgraded from the status of “High Consequence Infectious Disease.”
John Lee, recently retired professor of pathology and former NHS consultant pathologist, has recently argued that, “the world’s 18,944 coronavirus deaths represent 0.14 per cent of the total. These figures might shoot up but they are, right now, lower than other infectious diseases that we live with (such as flu).”
He recommends, “a degree of social distancing should be maintained for a while, especially for the elderly and the immune-suppressed. But when drastic measures are introduced, they should be based on clear evidence. In the case of Covid-19, the evidence is not clear.”
That’s essentially the same point developed by a Russian military intel analyst.
No less than 22 scientists – see here and here – have expanded on their doubts about the Western strategy.
Dr. Sucharit Bhakdi, Professor Emeritus of Medical Microbiology at the Johannes Gutenberg University in Mainz, has provoked immense controversy with his open letter to Chancellor Merkel, stressing the “truly unforeseeable consequences of the drastic containment measures which are currently being applied in large parts of Europe.”
Even New York governor Andrew Cuomo admitted on the record about the error of quarantining elderly people with illnesses alongside the fit young population.
The absolutely key issue is how the West was caught completely unprepared for the spread of Covid-19 – even after being provided a head start of two months by China, and having the time to study different successful strategies applied across Asia.
There are no secrets for the success of the South Korean model.
South Korea was producing test kits already in early January, and by March was testing 100,000 people a day, after establishing strict control of the whole population – to Western cries of “no protection of private life”. That was before the West embarked on Planet Lockdown mode.
South Korea was all about testing early, often and safely – in tandem with quick, thorough contact tracing, isolation and surveillance.
Covid-19 carriers are monitored with the help of video-surveillance cameras, credit card purchases, smartphone records. Add to it SMS sent to everyone when a new case is detected near them or their place of work. Those in self-isolation need an app to be constantly monitored; non-compliance means a fine to the equivalent of $2,800.
Controlled demolition in effect
In early March, the Chinese Journal of Infectious Diseases, hosted by the Shanghai Medical Association, pre-published an Expert Consensus on Comprehensive Treatment of Coronavirus in Shanghai. Treatment recommendations included, “large doses of vitamin C…injected intravenously at a dose of 100 to 200 mg / kg per day. The duration of continuous use is to significantly improve the oxygenation index.”
That’s the reason why 50 tons of Vitamin C was shipped to Hubei province in early February. It’s a stark example of a simple “mitigation” solution capable of minimizing economic catastrophe.
In contrast, it’s as if the brutally fast Chinese “people’s war” counterpunch against Covid-19 had caught Washington totally unprepared. Steady intel rumbles on the Chinese net point to Beijing having already studied all plausible leads towards the origin of the Sars-Cov-2 virus – vital information that will be certainly weaponized, Sun Tzu style, at the right time.
As it stands, the sustainability of the complex Eurasian integration project has not been substantially compromised. As the EU has provided the whole planet with a graphic demonstration of its cluelessness and helplessness, every day the Russia-China strategic partnership gets stronger – increasingly investing in soft power and advancing a pan-Eurasia dialogue which includes, crucially, medical help.
Facing this process, the EU’s top diplomat, Joseph Borrell, sounds indeed so helpless:
“There is a global battle of narratives going on in which timing is a crucial factor. […] China has brought down local new infections to single figures – and it is now sending equipment and doctors to Europe, as others do as well. China is aggressively pushing the message that, unlike the U.S., it is a responsible and reliable partner. In the battle of narratives we have also seen attempts to discredit the EU (…) We must be aware there is a geo-political component including a struggle for influence through spinning and the ‘politics of generosity’. Armed with facts, we need to defend Europe against its detractors.”
That takes us to really explosive territory. A critique of the Planet Lockdown strategy inevitably raises serious questions pointing to a controlled demolition of the global economy. What is already in stark effect are myriad declinations of martial law, severe social media policing in Ministry of Truth mode, and the return of strict border controls.
These are unequivocal markings of a massive social re-engineering project, complete with inbuilt full monitoring, population control and social distancing promoted as the new normal.
That would be taking to the limit Secretary of State Mike “we lie, we cheat, we steal” Pompeo’s assertion, on the record, that Covid-19 is a live military exercise: “This matter is going forward — we are in a live exercise here to get this right.”
All hail BlackRock
So as we face a New Great Depression, steps leading to a Brave New World are already discernible. It goes way beyond a mere Bretton Woods 2.0, in the manner that Pam and Russ Martens superbly deconstruct the recent $2 trillion, Capitol Hill-approved stimulus to the U.S. economy.
Essentially, the Fed will “leverage the bill’s $454 million bailout slush fund into $4.5 trillion”. And no questions are allowed on who gets the money, because the bill simply cancels the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) for the Fed.
The privileged private contractor for the slush fund is none other than BlackRock. Here’s the extremely short version of the whole, astonishing scheme, masterfully detailed here.
Wall Street has turned the Fed into a hedge fund. The Fed is going to own at least two thirds of all U.S. Treasury bills wallowing in the market before the end of the year.
The U.S. Treasury will be buying every security and loan in sight while the Fed will be the banker – financing the whole scheme.
So essentially this is a Fed/ Treasury merger. A behemoth dispensing loads of helicopter money – with BlackRock as the indisputable winner.
BlackRock is widely known as the biggest money manager on the planet. Their tentacles are everywhere. They own 5% of Apple, 5% of Exxon Mobil, 6% of Google, second largest shareholder of AT&T (Turner, HBO, CNN, Warner Brothers) – these are just a few examples.
They will buy all these securities and manage those dodgy special Purpose Vehicles (SPVs) on behalf of the Treasury.
BlackRock not only is the top investor in Goldman Sachs. Better yet: Blackrock is bigger than Goldman Sachs, JP Morgan and Deutsche Bank combined. BlackRock is a serious Trump donor. Now, for all practical purposes, it will be the operating system – the Chrome, Firefox, Safari – of Fed/Treasury.
This represents the definitive Wall Street-ization of the Fed – with no evidence whatsoever it will lead to any improvement in the lives of the average American.
Western corporate media, en masse, have virtually ignored the myriad, devastating economic consequences of Planet Lockdown. Wall to wall coverage barely mentions the astonishing economic human wreckage already in effect – especially for the masses barely surviving, so far, in the informal economy.
For all practical purposes, the Global War on Terror (GWOT) has been replaced by the Global War on Virus (GWOV). But what is not being seriously analyzed is the Perfect Toxic Storm: a totally shattered economy; The Mother of All Financial Crashes – barely masked by the trillions in helicopter money from the Fed and the ECB; the tens of millions of unemployed engendered by the New Great Depression; the millions of small businesses that will simply disappear; a widespread, global mental health crisis. Not to mention the masses of elderly, especially in the U.S., that will be issued an unspoken “drop dead” notice.
Beyond any rhetoric about “decoupling”, the global economy is already, de facto, split in two. On one side, we have Eurasia, Africa and swathes of Latin America – what China will be painstakingly connecting and reconnecting via the New Silk Roads. On the other side, we have North America and selected Western vassals. A puzzled Europe lies in the middle.
A cryogenically induced global economy certainly facilitates a reboot. Trumpism is the New Exceptionalism – so that means an isolationist MAGA on steroids. In contrast, China will painstakingly reboot its market base along the New Silk Roads – Africa and Latin America included – to replace the 20% of trade/exports to be lost with the U.S.
The meager $1,200 checks promised to Americans are a de facto precursor of the much touted Universal Basic Income (UBI). They may become permanent as tens of millions of people will be permanently unemployed. That will facilitate the transition towards a totally automated, 24/7 economy run by AI – thus the importance of 5G.
And that’s where ID2020 comes in.
AI and ID2020
The European Commission is involved in a crucial but virtually unknown project, CREMA (Cloud Based Rapid Elastic Manufacturing) which aims to facilitate the widest possible implementation of AI in conjunction to the advent of a cashless One-World system.
The end of cash necessarily implies a One-World government capable of dispensing – and controlling – UBI; a de facto full accomplishment of Foucault’s studies on biopolitics. Anyone is liable to be erased from the system if an algorithm equals this individual with dissent.
It gets even sexier when absolute social control is promoted as an innocent vaccine.
ID2020 is self-described as a benign alliance of “public-private partners”. Essentially, it is an electronic ID platform based on generalized vaccination. And its starts at birth; newborns will be provided with a “portable and persistent biometrically-linked digital identity.”
GAVI, the Global Alliance for Vaccines and Immunization, pledges to “protect people’s health “ and provide “immunization for all”. Top partners and sponsors, apart from the WHO, include, predictably, Big Pharma.
At the ID2020 Alliance summit last September in New York, it was decided that the “Rising to the Good ID Challenge” program would be launched in 2020. That was confirmed by the World Economic Forum (WEF) this past January in Davos. The digital identity will be tested with the government of Bangladesh.
That poses a serious question: was ID2020 timed to coincide with what a crucial sponsor, the WHO, qualified as a pandemic? Or was a pandemic absolutely crucial to justify the launch of ID2020?
As game-changing trial runs go, nothing of course beats Event 201, which took place less than a month after ID2020.
The Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security in partnership with, once again, the WEF, as well as the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, described Event 201 as “a high-level pandemic exercise”. The exercise “illustrated areas where public/private partnerships will be necessary during the response to a severe pandemic in order to diminish large-scale economic and societal consequences.”
With Covid-19 in effect as a pandemic, the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health was forced to issue a statement basically saying they just “modeled a fictional coronavirus pandemic, but we explicitly stated that it was not a prediction”.
There’s no question “a severe pandemic, which becomes ‘Event 201’ would require reliable cooperation among several industries, national governments, and key international institutions”, as spun by the sponsors. Covid-19 is eliciting exactly this kind of “cooperation”. Whether it’s “reliable” is open to endless debate.
The fact is that, all over Planet Lockdown, a groundswell of public opinion is leaning towards defining the current state of affairs as a global psyop: a deliberate global meltdown – the New Great Depression – imposed on unsuspecting citizens by design.
The powers that be, taking their cue from the tried and tested, decades-old CIA playbook, of course, are breathlessly calling it a “conspiracy theory”. Yet what vast swathes of global public opinion observe is a – dangerous – virus being used as cover for the advent of a new, digital financial system, complete with a forced vaccine cum nanochip creating a full, individual, digital identity.
The most plausible scenario for our immediate future reads like clusters of smart cities linked by AI, with people monitored full time and duly micro-chipped doing what they need with a unified digital currency, in an atmosphere of Bentham’s and Foucault’s Panopticum* on overdrive.
So if this is really our future, the existing world-system has to go.
This is a test, this is only a test.

Millions Of Small Businesses Stunned To Learn They Are Not Eligible For Bailout Loans It ’ s the first day that America ’ s small businesses can apply for the SBA ’ s Paycheck Protection Program , i.e.
, the $ 350BN program that is part of the bigger $ 2 trillion bailout package designed to provide small businesses access to capital for payroll and other overhead costs to the tune of 2.5 months of average payroll and which must be accessed via an existing banking relationship – and the rollout is predictably a mess , with some banks such @ @ @ @ @ @ @ convert to grants if used exclusively for payrolls and business continuity purposes ) , while others like JPM delaying the roll out to 1pm ; a third group of banks such as Wells Fargo has conspicuously failed to provide its rollout plans – perhaps it is scheming how to cross-sell bailout loans with auto insurance or engage in some other typically Wellsfargoian fraud .
But a recurring shock as millions of small business owners head to these bank websites to apply for the PPP funds is that contrary to the SBA ’ s @ @ @ @ @ @ @ or less employees can apply , going to lender portals shows that only a very narrow subset of America ’ s millions in small businesses are be eligible .

Millions Of Small Businesses Stunned To Learn They Are Not Eligible For Bailout Loans
We eagerly await Steven Mnuchin’s answers to these questions…

It’s the first day that America’s small businesses can apply for the SBA’s Paycheck Protection Program, i.e., the $350BN program that is part of the bigger $2 trillion bailout package designed to provide small businesses access to capital for payroll and other overhead costs to the tune of 2.5 months of average payroll and which must be accessed via an existing banking relationship – and the rollout is predictably a mess, with some banks such as BofA already accepting loans (which convert to grants if used exclusively for payrolls and business continuity purposes), while others like JPM delaying the roll out to 1pm; a third group of banks such as Wells Fargo has conspicuously failed to provide its rollout plans – perhaps it is scheming how to cross-sell bailout loans with auto insurance or engage in some other typically Wellsfargoian fraud.
$WFC will not be ready to take applications for #PaycheckProtectionPlan today. They’re doing all the can and testing constantly. When you and running you will have to have a checking account and be an online banking customer to qualify. No previous loan requirement. — Wilfred Frost (@WilfredFrost) April 3, 2020
But a recurring shock as millions of small business owners head to these bank websites to apply for the PPP funds is that contrary to the SBA’s guidance that any small business with 500 or less employees can apply, going to lender portals shows that only a very narrow subset of America’s millions in small businesses are be eligible.
In fact, only those companies that already have a lending relationship, i.e., an outstanding loan with a given bank are – at least as of this moment – able to apply for the rescue funds.
Moynihan making clear on @SquawkStreet that small businesses should not only apply to their existing bank – but primarily to their existing LENDER. Just having a small business checking account will not suffice initially – you need to have borrowed from $BAC in recent past. https://t.co/LvSqMg3Rf8 — Wilfred Frost (@WilfredFrost) April 3, 2020
Bank of America’s website confirms as much, stating on its eligibility page that only “clients with a business lending and a business deposit relationship at Bank of America are eligible to apply for a Paycheck Protection Program through our bank.” In other words, any business that only has a deposit account and no loan or business card is out of luck.
And the kicker, literally, for those BofA clients who would like to become eligible and open a business loan account, well it’s too late: as the bank makes clear, this should have happened as of Feb 15.
To apply for the Paycheck Protection Program through our bank, you must have a pre-existing business lending and business deposit relationship with Bank of America, as of February 15, 2020. A Business Credit Card, line of credit or loan may be the lending product used.
Said otherwise, business who ran a clean balance sheet without debt are seen as riskier than businesses that carry loans, and are unduly penalized just because they never opened a loan with BofA.
JPMorgan is even more draconian in its selectivity of whom it will hand out Treasury-guaranteed money to. As the bank notes in its ironically-named “CARES” website, “You must have a Chase Business checking account as of February 15, 2020.” Anyone who does not is straight out of luck.
And as countless other banks follow suit, the question becomes is this how the banks that were bailed out by ordinary Americans in 2008 will treat those same Americans when they need a rescue too? Alternatively, what happens to these banks when millions of small business fail and America’s economy plunges into an even deeper depression? One final question: how is it logical for banks to only bailout those companies which already have debt and are by extension riskier, than to provide funds to their ordinary clients who only now, for the first time, need a helping hand?
We eagerly await Steven Mnuchin’s answers to these questions.
