prisonplanet--2020-03-24--Experts Warn Of A Complete And Utter Economic Meltdown As The Global Coronavirus Death Toll Explodes

Experts Warn Of A Complete And Utter Economic Meltdown As The Global Coronavirus Death Toll Explodes Everyone that tried to tell us that this pandemic would fade away quickly has been proven dead wrong .
Right now , approximately 187 million Americans are under “ shelter-in-place ” orders as COVID-19 sweeps across the nation like wildfire .
There are now more than 43,000 confirmed cases in the U.S. , but by the time many of you read this article that number is likely to be far higher .
But what is even more concerning is what we are seeing with @ @ @ @ @ @ @ final resolution one way or the other .
Of all U.S. cases that have been officially resolved , 553 patients have died and only 295 patients have recovered .
Over time , the number of patients that have officially recovered will eventually surpass the number that have died for a couple of reasons .
For one , some victims are dying in just a few days while it can take weeks for some patients to fully recover .
Secondly , more widespread testing will start to reveal more mild cases , and most @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
But without a doubt it is starting to appear that the U.S. will have a very high death rate like we are seeing in Italy , Spain and other western European nations .
Monday was the very first time that more than 100 Americans died in a single day , and it looks like the days ahead could be much , much worse .
Overall , the global death toll is rising at a pace that is very alarming .
It hit 16,000 on Monday , and that means it only took @ @ @ @ @ @ @ If the death toll keeps doubling like that , we are going to be in very big trouble .
The number of confirmed cases is rising at an exponential rate as well , and on Monday the head of the WHO warned that this pandemic “ is accelerating ” … As I write this article , there are 260,133 open cases around the world and 118,947 closed cases .
Out of the closed cases , 86 percent of the victims have recovered and 14 percentof the victims have died .
To put that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that stretched from 1918 to 1920 had a death rate of less than 3 percent .
But even after everything that has transpired , there are still lots of Americans that are not taking this pandemic seriously .
I don ’ t understand this , because all of our medical authorities are warning us that the worst is yet to come .
In fact , Surgeon General Jerome Adams just told us that “ it ’ s going to get bad ” … And as I have been warning for weeks , this @ @ @ @ @ @ @ States and the entire globe into a horrifying economic nightmare .
At this point , even CNN is using “ the d-word ” … .
A month ago , most Americans wouldn ’ t have imagined that such a thing could be possible .
But now “ the everything bubble ” has burst and we have just witnessed the fastest 30 percent decline for the S & P 500 in all of U.S. history… In the short-term , the good news for investors is that we should see a substantial bounce in stock @ @ @ @ @ @ @ especially be true when Congress finally gets around to passing their “ stimulus ” package .
But whether the market goes up or down in the short-term , it isn ’ t going to stop the complete and utter economic meltdown that is now unfolding .
According to billionaire Tom Barrack , the commercial mortgage market is on the precipice of a historic collapse… All of the dominoes are going to fall , and it is going to be horrifying to watch .
Meanwhile , we could be on the verge of a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ across the U.S. ” … To me , this is something that is exceedingly difficult to imagine , but we will see things a lot stranger than this in the days ahead .
As America literally shuts down from coast to coast , the job losses are going to be absolutely staggering .
In fact , we are being warned to expect numbers that are unlike anything we have ever seen before… If this pandemic stretches on for an extended period of time , we will very quickly surpass the unemployment levels that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Back then , the unemployment rate didn ’ t exceed 10 percent , but now the head of the St. Louis Fed is warning that we may see a 30 percent unemployment rate in the second quarter… Could things actually deteriorate that rapidly ?
I sure hope not , because most American families are just barely scraping by… For years , many of us have been begging and pleading with people to get ready .
We warned that when things finally broke loose that events would move very quickly .
I even co-authored @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Now ” , but now it is too late to get prepared in advance because a day of reckoning is now upon us .
I really like how Mike Adams of Natural News made this point… A lot of the same people that didn ’ t listen and didn ’ t get prepared in advance are now trying to convince us that this crisis will soon be gone .
And it would be wonderful if they are right .
But at this moment the global numbers are rising rapidly with each passing hour @ @ @ @ @ @ @ imploding all around us .

prisonplanet--2020-03-24--It’s Not “Just The Flu”: Here Is Why You Definitely DO NOT Want To Catch This Coronavirus…

It ’ s Not “ Just The Flu ” : Here Is Why You Definitely DO NOT Want To Catch This Coronavirus… Can you imagine being in “ blinding pain ” for weeks , constantly gasping for air as you feel like you are being suffocated , and screaming for mercy because you are in so much constant torment ?
As you will see below , coronavirus survivors are telling us about their hellish ordeals , and they are warning us to do everything that we can to avoid this virus .
Of course they are the lucky ones .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ the global death toll has doubled over the past six days , and so far the very high death rate in the United States is extremely alarming .
So those that survive should consider themselves to be very fortunate , but many of those same individuals will be left with permanent lung damage .
This virus attacks the respiratory system with a ferocity that is shocking doctors , and those that are still attempting to claim that COVID-19 is “ just like the flu ” need to stop , because they are just @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that this virus has an incubation period of up to 24 days , and people can spread it around long before they are showing any symptoms .
And you don ’ t even have to encounter someone with the virus to catch it .
According to Bloomberg , new research has discovered that this virus can remain on surfaces “ for as many as 17 days ” … When you combine those two factors , it makes COVID-19 nearly impossible to contain .
This is a major emergency , and it makes me @ @ @ @ @ @ @ there that are still trying to downplay this pandemic .
As a result , many people are not taking proper precautions , and a lot of them are going to end up catching the virus .
If you are reading this and you still don ’ t think that COVID-19 is a big deal , please take a moment to consider the following five stories about coronavirus survivors… That night I woke up in the middle of the night with chills , vomiting , and shortness of breath .
By Monday , I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ words without feeling like I was gasping for air .
I couldn ’ t walk to the bathroom without panting as if I ’ d run a mile .
On Monday evening , I tried to eat , but found I couldn ’ t get enough oxygen while doing so .
Any task that was at all anxiety-producing — even resetting my MyChart password to communicate with my doctor — left me desperate for oxygen .
‘ It ’ s like having glass in your lungs , it ’ s hard to explain @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
‘ It ’ s absolutely horrible and I wouldn ’ t want to go through anything like this ever again .
I ’ d been ill for about five days before I was taken to hospital in an ambulance .
‘ I ’ d originally been diagnosed with a chest infection and given antibiotics and advised to take ibuprofen and paracetamol .
I was taking about eight ibuprofen a day and they now think that that exacerbated the problem .
As you can see , this virus is not just hitting “ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ if you are above the age of 60 , please understand that you at very high risk , and you need to stay away from public places for the foreseeable future .
I know that it can be hard to stay home day after day , but this is truly a very , very deadly virus .
At this point , even doctors and nurses are “ scared to go to work ” … Doctors and nurses on the front lines of the fight against the coronavirus in the United States say it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ they ’ ve been scared to go to work .
With a shortage of personal protective equipment , some have resorted to using bandanas to cover their faces .
“ It ’ s the first time we ’ ve ever been truly scared to come to work , but despite being scared we are trained to save lives and we ’ re committed to doing that , ” Dr. Cornelia Griggs , a surgeon in New York City , told “ CBS This Morning.
” “ I ’ m embarrassed to say , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and I had never gotten around to writing a will , but this weekend that became one of our to-do list items.
” As I have been writing this article , over 2,000 more confirmed cases were added to the rapidly growing total here in the United States .
And as I discussed yesterday , it looks like the U.S. is going to have a very high death rate just like we are seeing in western European countries such as Italy and Spain .
So please take this pandemic very seriously .
A @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , and it is going to be a great national tragedy .
Please pray for those that have caught the virus and are deeply suffering .
It is in our darkest moments that we need a miracle the most , and there are a whole lot of people out there that need one right now .

Are thugs targeting NHS workers on their way to fight coronavirus ?
Social media users share wild rumours of alleged assaults ‘ for ID cards ’ As the UK plunges into a draconian-style lockdown in an effort to control the spread of the coronavirus outbreak , fears for the safety of NHS staff have begun to emerge on social media .
Wild rumours have begun to surface online that staff working in the health sector are being targetted for their valuables and I.D cards as they commute to and from work to help fight the surge in COVID-19 cases .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ have been trying to get hold of their identity cards in an effort to gain access to the NHS staff priority shopping hours .

FDA approves first US coronavirus treatment: Doctors across the US can now treat the sickest Americans with plasma from recovered patients

FDA approves first US coronavirus treatment : Doctors across the US can now treat the sickest Americans with plasma from recovered patients The US Food and Drug Administration on Tuesday approved the first treatment in the US for the coronavirus that has infected more than 50,000 Americans : blood plasma from people who have cleared the infection .
Blood plasma from recovered COVID-19 patients is rich in antibodies their immune system has developed to fight the infection .
China began using the century-old method to treat its patients last month , and New York Governor Andrew Cuomo announced Monday that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the sickest of the state ’ s more than 25,000 coronavirus patients .

prisonplanet--2020-03-25--Peter Schiff: COVID-19 Is Exposing The Truth About The Economy

Peter Schiff : COVID-19 Is Exposing The Truth About The Economy It wasn ’ t long ago that all of the pundits were telling us that the economy was strong .
As a result , a lot of people seem to think that once the coronavirus situation is resolved , the economy will quickly go back to normal .
In his podcast Friday , Peter Schiff said that ’ s not going to happen .
The coronavirus is actually going to reveal that the “ great ” economy was an illusion — a big , fat , ugly bubble that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ended a very volatile week down again on Friday .
The Dow Jones shed another 913 points and has now lost all of the gains made during the Trump presidency .
On the week , the Dow dropped over 4,000 points .
It was the worst week ever in terms of a drop in points .
On a percentage basis , it was the worst week since the 2008 financial crisis .
In his podcast Friday , Peter Schiff said this looks an awful lot like a financial crisis even though everybody keeps @ @ @ @ @ @ @ crisis .
In fact , March is on track to be the worst percentage drop in the US stock market in one month since 1932 .
The conventional wisdom is that everything will be fine once we get through the coronavirus shutdown .
Meanwhile , the government can keep us all afloat with bailouts .
Peter raises the key question : where is the money going to come from to pay everybody ?
Of course , it will be created out of thin air .
The Federal Reserve will once again monetize the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ balance sheet is going to explode .
Once this is over , how can the central bank possibly shrink that balance sheet and say “ it ’ s business as usual ?
” How are we going to let interest rates rise when there is all that debt ?
Keep in mind , we are already up to our eyeballs in government , corporate and personal debt thanks to the easy money policies of the Fed after the 2008 crisis .
The only alternative will be to leave all of those assets on @ @ @ @ @ @ @ As we saw a couple of years ago , the Fed wasn ’ t able to normalize rates or shrink its balance sheet after the Great Recession .
It certainly won ’ t be able to this time .
In other words , the central bank will have to permanently monetize the debt .
But that raises another question .
Peter used a WWII analogy .
After the war , taxes remained high and the government was able to eventually pay off all the debt .
This time , the government is trying @ @ @ @ @ @ @ doesn ’ t work that way .
There is a difference between real credit that comes from savings and the fake credit that the Federal Reserve conjures into existence just by creating money .
There ’ re no resources that are made available to the government .
There ’ s just inflation .
You ’ re just printing money .
Everybody is still operating under the delusion that the money we print has real value .
And they keep going back to the idea that everything is going to be fine .
We @ @ @ @ @ @ @ they don ’ t realize that the sacrifices we made in World War Two were completely different .
It ’ s not a sacrifice if everybody gets bailed out .
The sacrifice is when you don ’ t get bailed out ; you have to deal with it yourself.
” The key thing to understand is that even if the coronavirus is quickly controlled , everything is not going to go back to normal .
Everybody thinks we had a great economy before the coronavirus started spreading around the world .
But it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ bubble .
And the coronavirus pricked the bubble .
And that doesn ’ t mean that after the coronavirus problem is over the bubble just magically relates .
It ’ s not going to happen .
There ’ s no way to reflate this bubble .
The bubble has popped .
It ’ s because we didn ’ t have a viable economy before the pin pricked the bubble , that ’ s why we ’ re not going to have a recovery when the pin is gone .
Once this whole house @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ’ s down.
” Peter said this is going to expose the US economy for what it was – an illusion .
In this podcast , Peter also explains why the dollar is rising now , but why we are on the cusp of a dollar crisis .

• Approval rating up five percentage points from prior poll President Donald Trump may be enjoying a small rally in public support as the nation faces the COVID-19 pandemic .
Forty-nine percent of U.S. adults , up from 44 % earlier this month , approve of the job Trump is doing as president .
Trump also had 49 % job approval ratings — the best of his presidency — in late January and early February around the time of the Senate impeachment trial that resulted in his acquittal .
Independents ’ and Democrats ’ approval of Trump ’ s performance @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , tying as the best he has registered to date among each group .
The president ’ s approval rating among Republicans was already above 90 % , and remains so — but is not currently his highest on record ( 94 % in late January ) .
Trump ’ s response to the novel coronavirus pandemic may be behind his higher overall approval rating .
Americans give the president generally positive reviews for his handling of the situation , with 60 % approving and 38 % disapproving .
Ninety-four percent of Republicans @ @ @ @ @ @ @ % of Democrats approve of his response .
The Trump administration has received some criticism for its response to the COVID-19 pandemic — including that the president downplayed the threat , at least up until his nationally televised address on March 11 .
On March 16 , Trump acknowledged the seriousness of the situation by urging people to avoid gatherings of more than 10 people and to have workers and students stay home if possible .

prisonplanet--2020-03-25--Like Freedom? Then You Won’t Like The FREEDOM Act

Like Freedom ?
Then You Won ’ t Like The FREEDOM Act Last Monday , a bipartisan group of Senators and a coalition including libertarian and progressive activists thwarted a scheme to ram through the Senate legislation renewing three provisions of the USA FREEDOM Act ( previously known as the USA PATRIOT Act ) .
The bill had already been rushed through the House of Representatives , and most expected it to sail through the Senate .
But , instead , Senate leadership had to settle for a 77-day extension .
Senate leadership was also forced to allow consideration of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Included is Sen. Rand Paul ’ s amendment that would forbid the FISA court from issuing warrants targeting American citizens .
Deep state supporters claim the expiring business records provision ( which authorizes the collection of our communications and was at the center of Edward Snowden ’ s 2013 revelations ) , lone wolf provision ( which allows government to subject an individual with no known ties to terrorists to warrantless surveillance ) , and roving wiretaps provision ( which allows government to monitor communications on any device that may be used by @ @ @ @ @ @ @ keep Americans safe .
But , since Congress first passed the PATRIOT Act almost 20 years ago , mass surveillance , warrantless wiretapping , and bulk data collection have not stopped a single terrorist attack .
The legislation does have “ reforms ” aimed at protecting civil liberties , but these new protections contain loopholes that render the protections meaningless .
For example , the bill requires those targeted for surveillance to be notified that the government spied on them .
However , this requirement can be waived if the government simply claims @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that notifying the target would harm “ national security.
” The notice provision also only applies to the target of an investigations .
So , if you were caught up in a federal investigation because a coworker is being targeted and you shared an office computer , or if a store clerk reported to the government you and others bought pressure cookers , the government could collect your phone records , texts , and social media posts without giving you the chance to challenge the government ’ s actions .

Instead , lawmakers are shooting for ‘ later in the week ’ .
Don ’ t get too used to those gains… Amazingly , after being handed the political opportunity of a lifetime in the coronavirus ( even as some polls show Trump ’ s approval ratings holding up ) Pelosi is choosing to hold up the stimulus package to try and force through progressive priorities like diversity quotas in corporate board rooms – essentially making Goldman Sachs ’ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ at least one ‘ diverse ’ board member a law .
That doesn ’ t sound like an emergency to us , nor to most Americans , and neither does forgiving every Americans student loans .
President Trump ’ s Fox News town hall generated surprisingly few headlines earlier , so once again on Tuesday it was the White House coronavirus task force briefing that drew most of the eyeballs , while producing most of the big news .
After warning New Yorkers on Monday that researchers had seen an “ attack rate @ @ @ @ @ @ @ five times higher ” than the rest of the country , Dr. Deborah Birx warned that anybody leaving NY should self-quarantine for 14 days .
“ The administration remains deeply concerned about New York City and the New York metro area…about 56 % of all the cases in the United States are coming out of that metro area and 60 % of all the new cases are coming out of the metro New York Area and 31 % of the people succumbing to this disease , ” Dr. Birx said .
The ambassador @ @ @ @ @ @ @ where you are now : If you were in NYC recently , you should quarantine for two weeks .
If you were there four days ago , you would have 10 days to go .
“ You may have been exposed before you left New York , ” Birx said at a White House news conference on Tuesday .
“ Everybody who was in New York should be self-quarantining for the next 14 days to ensure that the virus doesn ’ t spread to others.
” Birx said they are “ starting to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ That suggest people have left the city.
” Over in the UK , as a nationwide lockdown enters its second day , scientists warned that up to 50 % of the UK population might already be infected with the virus , according to an unpublished study that assumes that just a small percentage of those exposed develop severe symptoms .

prisonplanet--2020-03-25--Coronavirus could already have infected HALF the British population

Coronavirus could already have infected HALF the British population The coronavirus could have infected as much as half of the population of the United Kingdom , according to researchers at the University of Oxford – as the official death toll jumps a record 87 in one day to 422 and confirmed cases leap by 1,427 .
The new model from Oxford University suggests the virus was circulating in the UK by mid-January , around two weeks before the first reported case and a month before the first reported death .
This means it could have had enough time to have @ @ @ @ @ @ @ immunity .
Sunetra Gupta , a professor of theoretical epidemiology who led the study , said testing was needed to assess the theory .
‘ We need immediately to begin large-scale serological surveys – antibody testing – to assess what stage of the epidemic we are in now , ’ she said .
It comes after 87 more patients died overnight in England , including 21 at the one NHS trust in London .
Scotland also announced two fatalities , while Wales and Northern Ireland confirmed another death .
In contrast , fifty-four @ @ @ @ @ @ @ The UK ’ s death toll has risen almost six-fold in the space of a week , with just 71 fatalities recorded last Tuesday .

Video : Egyptians Congregate in Large Crowd to Protest Against Coronavirus A large crowd of people congregated on the streets of Alexandria , Egypt to protest against the coronavirus , shouting “ Allahu Akbar ” in a move that only increases the risk of spreading coronavirus .
After reportedly praying from the balconies for an end to the pandemic , Egyptians decided to do the very thing that would help spread it – gather together in a large group .

prisonplanet--2020-03-25--Spain: Police Called on Brothers Playing Soccer in Their Own Back Yard

Spain : Police Called on Brothers Playing Soccer in Their Own Back Yard Denunciations in the era of coronavirus .
Police were called after a neighbor spotted two brothers playing soccer in their own back yard in another example of how the country ’ s lockdown is being ruthlessly patrolled .
Philipp Bagus of the The Mises Institute writes about a case of “ When two brothers were seen playing soccer in the garden of an acquaintance ’ s apartment block , the police were called.
” “ People denounce playing children , who are regarded as harmful to public @ @ @ @ @ @ @ “ Quédate en casa ” ( stay at home ) , ” he adds .
“ This is a block warden mentality .
The most worrying thing is the high number of willing state collaborators .
The parallels with the past are unnoticed .
No one seems to care , and it is not even discussed.
” Spain has enacted similar draconian lockdown measures to Italy and France in an effort to fight the spread of coronavirus , with people banned from being outside in apartment block gardens even if only one family @ @ @ @ @ @ @ are only allowed to leave their homes for essential trips like buying food and seeking medical attention and not for exercise , as is the case in the UK .
Only one person from each household is allowed to leave at a time , with checkpoints set up to warn and fine those who have a passenger in their vehicle .
According to Bagus , Spaniards have adopted a kind of Stockholm syndrome where they praise the authorities who have effectively put them under house arrest .
“ Instead of protesting against the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ clap their hands every day at 8 p.m. in Spain , ” he writes .
“ Initially , the applause was mainly to show support for doctors and nurses , but in the meantime cheers for the police have been mixed in.

It appears on early Wednesday morning , the White House and Republican and Democratic Senate leaders reached a deal to keep the American economy humming during the virus crisis and hopefully avoid depression in the second and third quarters .
The new Senate proposal will inject $ 2 trillion into the US economy , just like a shot of heroin , providing tax rebates , four months expanded unemployment benefits , and several business tax-relief provisions aimed at supporting individuals , families , and businesses , reported The Hill .
“ The deal includes $ 500 billion for a major @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , $ 367 billion for a small business loan program , $ 100 billion for hospitals and $ 150 billion for state and local governments.
” It will also give a one-time check of $ 1,200 to Americans who make up to $ 75,000 .
Individuals with no or little tax liability would receive the same amount , unlike the initial GOP proposal that would have given them a minimum of $ 600.

As even Britain is urging its close US ally to moderate its stance on Iran sanctions as the Mideast country ’ s death toll surges from the coronvirus pandemic , the Washington-Tehran tit-for-tat exchanges and blame game over Covid-19 continues unabated .
Yesterday Pompeo issued a new list of five allegations of how Iran ’ s leaders have handled the outbreak .
Notably this featured the fresh charge that Iran is responsible for recklessly spreading the deadly virus to five countries .
“ In February , Iran ’ s chief terror airline , Mahan Air , ran at least 55 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ infecting the Iranian people , ” said Pompeo .
“ At least five foreign countries ’ first cases of coronavirus were directly imported from Iran , putting millions more lives at risk.
” Pompeo ’ s newly released five “ facts ” were posted to US Embassy websites around the world , and further accuse Iran of diverting vital funds from Covid-19 protection to instead supporting global terrorist .
Europe has largely stood by the Islamic Republic as it ’ s lashed out at US sanctions .
On Monday a new announcement of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ coronovirus was issued by the EU : “ We ’ ve not been able to provide a lot of humanitarian help but there is some 20 million euros in the pipeline… that we expect to be delivered over the next weeks , ” EU foreign policy chief Josep Borrell said .
It appears the White House ’ s latest attempt to deflect growing criticism over its ‘ maximum pressure ’ campaign , which is exacerbating the outbreak in hard-hit Iran , is also also centered around the charge that the regime allegedly “ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ humanitarian assistance to the Iranian people .
However , little to no proof has been offered for such claims .
Here are Pompeo ’ s 5 facts posted to State Department websites this week regarding what he dubs “ the Wuhan virus ” and Iran ’ s alleged role in spreading it : Fact : In February , Iran ’ s chief terror airline , Mahan Air , ran at least 55 flights between Tehran and China , further infecting the Iranian people .
At least five foreign countries ’ first cases of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ putting millions more lives at risk .
Fact : The Iranian regime ignored repeated warnings from its own health officials , and denied its first death from the coronavirus for at least nine days .
The regime continues to lie to the Iranian people and the world about the number of cases and deaths , which are unfortunately far higher than the regime admits .
Fact : As Iranian regime officials ask for more funds , it is important to note that since 2012 , Iran has spent over $ 16 billion on @ @ @ @ @ @ @ from the JCPOA to fill up its proxies ’ coffers .
Regime officials stole over a billion Euros intended for medical supplies , and continue to hoard desperately needed masks , gloves , and other medical equipment for sale on the black market .
Fact : U.S. sanctions do not target imports of food , medicine and medical equipment , or other humanitarian goods .
Iranian documents show their health companies have been able to import testing kits without obstacle from U.S. sanctions since January .
Fact : The United States has offered @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to foreign countries , including to the Iranian people , and our scientists are working tirelessly to develop a vaccine .
Khamenei rejected this offer because he works tirelessly to concoct conspiracy theories and prioritizes ideology over the Iranian people .
Meanwhile , Tehran officials have vehemently denied Pompeo ’ s “ conspiracies ” after recently floating their own claims that Covid-19 actually began in US Army labs , echoing similar bombastic statements in Chinese state media .

prisonplanet--2020-03-25--Virginia Governor Ralph Northam Omits Gun Stores from List of Essential Businesses

As the nation ’ s eyes turn towards New York City , the epicenter of America ’ s coronavirus pandemic , hundreds of miles to the south , Virginia has begun to experience a crisis of its own , as the number of confirmed coronavirus cases in the state has grown to over 300 as of this morning .
Monday , Governor Ralph Northam addressed the Commonwealth .
In response to the rapid spread of the Chinese-born coronavirus , he announced that public schools , shuttered since March 13th , would remain closed statewide for the rest of the academic @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a number of new restrictions on public life , mirroring the actions of Governors in a number of states nationwide , including the closure of “ non-essential ” businesses .
“ Governor Ralph Northam today issued a statewide order to protect the health and safety of Virginians and reduce the spread of the novel coronavirus , or COVID-19 , ” a Monday statement from the Governor ’ s office read .
“ Executive Order Fifty-Three orders the closure of certain non-essential businesses , bans all gatherings of 10 or more people , and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of the academic year .
Governor Northam is also urging all Virginians to avoid non-essential travel outside the home , if and when possible.
” Northam ’ s order went into effect at 11:59 PM Tuesday night and will remain in effect until 11:59 PM on Thursday , April 23rd .
While addressing the Commonwealth , Northam told Virginians that everyone in the state will be forced to make “ sacrifices ” in the coming weeks and months .
The sacrifices will , inevitably , be felt the hardest by working families and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ suddenly found themselves both out of work and without schools .
While Governor Northam says that childcare will be in place for those employed in essential sectors of the state ’ s economy , parents leaving their children at such care centers will not be required to prove that they are employed in an essential sector , or that they are even going to work at all , something that has led to concern among parents that the system may be abused , and lead to a negative impact on their children .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ all places of “ indoor amusement ” are considered non-essential and will be required to close , including fitness centers , beauty parlors , and shooting ranges .
Restaurants will be required to close by 11:59 PM and will continue to only serve customers by delivery or to-go orders .
Essential retail businesses include the likes of grocery stores , pharmacies , hardware and building supply retailers , medical and vision supply retailers , and auto repair facilities .
Notably omitted from the list are gun and ammunition retailers which , as of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ so long as social distancing can be maintained , and less than 10 patrons at a time are admitted .
The aforementioned guideline applies to all brick and mortar businesses not specifically ordered to close , although the list of businesses ordered to close may be expanded by the Governor at any time .
The exclusion of gun and ammunition stores has drawn the ire of Virginians , some of whom have pointed to the absurdity of Northam ’ s classification of wineries , breweries , and state-owned and operated liquor stores as @ @ @ @ @ @ @ stores , essential to the safety and security of Virginians , operate under the risk of state-mandated closure at any time .
Additionally , restaurants will be permitted to serve beer and wine by the drink to go , just as they will food , despite Virginia ’ s strict laws regarding open alcohol containers in vehicles .
All of this has led to many Virginians questioning whether state and local governments are now in the role of deciding winners and losers in the state ’ s business sector based on political bias @ @ @ @ @ @ @ government .

‘ Forget The Mattress !
’ FDIC Insists Deposits Are ‘ Safe And Sound ’ As Fed Gears Up For $ 6 Trillion Bailout National Economic Council Director Larry Kudlow on Tuesday evening announced the total coronavirus relief package will come to around $ 6 trillion with $ 2 trillion in “ direct assistance ” to Main Street and “ roughly $ 4 trillion in Federal Reserve lending power ” for Wall Street .
“ So , the total package here comes to roughly $ 6 trillion : $ 2 trillion direct assistance , roughly $ 4 trillion in Federal @ @ @ @ @ @ @ at a White House briefing .
“ Again , ” he said , “ it ’ ll be the largest Main Street financial package in the history of the United States .

“ Weeks and months .
It ’ s not going to be years , that ’ s @ @ @ @ @ @ @ way for continued economic recovery after the crisis departs.
” In all of fiscal 2019 , according to the Treasury , the federal government spent a total of $ 4,446,584,000,000 .
So , this $ 6,000,000,000,000 coronavirus package is $ 1,553,416,000,000–or about 35 percent more than all the spending the federal government did in the last fiscal year .
A few hours later , the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation released a video telling the public to “ forget the mattress ” amidst the coronavirus pandemic and keep their money in an “ FDIC-insured @ @ @ @ @ @ @ sound.
” “ The last thing you should be doing is pulling your money out of the banks now , thinking that it ’ s going to be safer someplace else , ” FDIC Chairman Jelena McWilliams said .
“ You don ’ t want to be walking around with large wads of cash and you certainly don ’ t want to be hoarding cash in your mattress.
” “ It didn ’ t pan out well for so many people , ” she said , without citing any such cases .
Earlier @ @ @ @ @ @ @ interest rates to zero , pumped $ 1.5 trillion in short-term loans into Wall Street and reduced reserve requirement ratios to “ zero percent.

Here Are The Very Alarming Things That Scientists Have Just Discovered About This Coronavirus… The biggest public health crisis of our time just continues to get worse .
The global death toll is rapidly approaching 20,000 , and approximately a third of the world is currently under some sort of a lockdown order .
Needless to say , this is going to be absolutely devastating for the entire global economy .
Here in the United States , the spread of this virus continues to track along a trajectory that is very similar to what we witnessed in Italy .
If @ @ @ @ @ @ @ this chart .
At this hour , the official death toll in the United States is up to 782 , and only 378 victims have officially “ recovered ” .
But of course the vast majority of the 54,867 confirmed cases will not come to a final resolution for quite some time .
Sadly , the numbers that I just shared with you are likely to be much higher by the time most of you actually read this article .
This is a full-blown national emergency , and a lot of people out @ @ @ @ @ @ @ very seriously .
This is no ordinary virus .
It moves from person to person with incredible ease , and it is rapidly changing .
In fact , it has just been announced that scientists in Iceland “ have found 40 mutations of the coronavirus ” … Those sentences should send a chill up your spine , and this discovery may help to explain why we are seeing far higher death rates in the western world than we have in Asia so far .
Meanwhile , a professor in the United Kingdom is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the virus can potentially infect “ up to 59,000 others ” … Previously , we have been told that someone can spread COVID-19 for many days before they even start exhibiting any symptoms .
That makes this the perfect “ stealth virus ” to spark a horrifying global pandemic .
And as I have discussed in previous articles , you don ’ t even have to encounter someone with the virus in order to become infected .
In fact , scientists have now discovered that this virus can linger on surfaces “ for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ know that this information is hard to take .
But it is absolutely critical that we understand what we are dealing with .
Just like elsewhere , our healthcare system is about to be completely overwhelmed .
On his Twitter account , a New York City emergency room doctor named Craig Spencer has described what his shifts are already like each day… Sadly , this is what life is going to be like for emergency room doctors all across America for as long as this pandemic lasts .
And it is inevitable that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ up catching the virus themselves .
In fact , it is already happening… I know that a lot of you out there are quite eager for life to return to “ normal ” , but that isn ’ t going to happen .
So far , the number of confirmed cases and the number of deaths in the United States are both ahead of even the most pessimistic early projections .
We should definitely be hopeful that the “ social distancing ” measures that have been put in place will help to “ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ if that happens we still have a very long battle ahead of us .
In some countries that had supposedly “ contained ” the virus , we are already starting to see a stunning resurgence in cases as people bring the virus back in from other areas .
Expert after expert has assured us that most of the U.S. population will eventually catch COVID-19 , and if it hits you really hard it will be a nightmarish ordeal that you will never forget .
Like so many others , I wish that this @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is here , and we have to deal with it .
According to a survey that was just conducted , 19 percent of Americans think that they might already have the virus .
If you are one of those people , please get the medical help that you need , and please reach out to those around you for prayer .

prisonplanet--2020-03-25--Why Did Hundreds Of CEOs Resign Just Before The World Started Going Absolutely Crazy?

Why Did Hundreds Of CEOs Resign Just Before The World Started Going Absolutely Crazy ?
In the months prior to the most ferocious stock market crash in history and the eruption of the biggest public health crisis of our generation , we witnessed the biggest exodus of corporate CEOs that we have ever seen .
And as you will see below , corporate insiders also sold off billions of dollars worth of shares in their own companies just before the stock market imploded .
In life , timing can be everything , and sometimes people simply get lucky .
But @ @ @ @ @ @ @ among the corporate elite would be so exceedingly “ lucky ” all at the same time .
In this article I am not claiming to know the motivations of any of these individuals , but I am pointing out certain patterns that I believe are worth investigating .
One financial publication is using the phrase “ the great CEO exodus ” to describe the phenomenon that we have been witnessing .
It all started last year when chief executives started resigning in numbers unlike anything that we have ever seen before .
The @ @ @ @ @ @ @ November… Chief executives are leaving in record numbers this year , with more than 1,332 stepping aside in the period from January through the end of October , according to new data released on Wednesday .
While it ’ s not unusual to see CEOs fleeing in the middle of a recession , it is noteworthy to see such a rash of executive exits amid robust corporate earnings and record stock market highs .
Last month , 172 chief executives left their jobs , according to executive placement firm Challenger , Gray & @ @ @ @ @ @ @ monthly number on record , and the year-to-date total outpaces even the wave of executive exits during the financial crisis .
By the end of the year , an all-time record high 1,480 CEOs had left their posts .
But to most people it seemed like the good times were still rolling at the end of 2019 .
Corporate profits were rising and the stock market was setting record high after record high .
Yes , there were lots of signs that the global economy was really slowing down , but most experts @ @ @ @ @ @ @ So why did so many chief executives suddenly decide that it was time to move on ?
The following are just a few of the big name CEOs that chose to step down in 2019… Of course the mass exodus of chief executives did not end there .
In fact , a whopping 219 CEOs stepped down during the month of January 2020 alone .
By then , it was starting to become clear that the coronavirus that was ripping through China could potentially become a major global pandemic , and I certainly @ @ @ @ @ @ @ elite would choose to abandon ship at that moment .
Some of these CEOs have made absolutely absurd salaries for many years , and it is much easier to take the money and run than it is to stick around and steer a major corporation through the most difficult global crisis that any of us have ever experienced .
The following are just a few of the well known CEOs that have resigned so far in 2020… It is important for me to say that I do not have any special insight into @ @ @ @ @ @ @ individuals , and every situation is different .
But I do think that it is quite strange that we have seen such an unprecedented corporate exodus at such a critical moment in our history .
Meanwhile , top corporate executives were dumping billions of dollars worth of shares in their own companies just before the market completely cratered .
The following comes from the Wall Street Journal… In the stock market , you only make money if you get out in time , and many among the corporate elite seem to have impeccable @ @ @ @ @ @ @ lucky .
Or perhaps they were reading my articles and understood that COVID-19 was going to cause the global economy to shut down .
In any event , things worked out really well for those that were able to dump their stocks before it was too late .
And it turns out that several members of Congress were also selling stocks just before the market went nuts… Of course most ordinary Americans were not so “ lucky ” , and the financial losses for the country as a whole have been absolutely staggering @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was a tremendous rally on Wall Street on Tuesday , and that will provide some temporary relief for investors .
But the number of confirmed coronavirus cases continues to escalate at an exponential rate all over the globe , and this crisis appears to be a long way from over .

People flooded onto trains and buses in Hubei province on Wednesday after China lifted a two-month lockdown on the epicenter of the coronavirus outbreak , which began in the eastern city of Wuhan ( roughly 900 feet from a laboratory where they were experimenting on bat coronavirus that ’ s 96 % genetically identical to COVID-19 ) .
At a railway station in the city of Macheng , there were long queues of people lugging suitcases in the rain as they queued for trains .

prisonplanet--2020-03-26--Warnings about big tech data collection as schools shift to online learning

Warnings about big tech data collection as schools shift to online learning As millions of students across the country transfer to online learning amid the coronavirus pandemic , several senators are calling on the federal government to develop guidance that protects student data and privacy .
U.S. Sens .
Ed Markey , Richard Durbin , and Richard Blumenthal penned a joint letter to Education Secretary Betsy DeVos and leaders at the Federal Trade Commission on Tuesday warning the Trump administration about how the shift to online learning comes with serious considerations , The Washington Post reports .
“ Student privacy @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the current pandemic moves learning from the classroom to online offerings at home .
Across the globe , school closings have greatly increased students ’ reliance on platforms and services that facilitate remote learning on laptops and devices , ” the senators wrote .
These tools hold the promise of facilitating continued learning while students are forced to stay home , and we encourage educators and institutions to continue to implement innovative solutions to meet the current challenges facing our education system .
“ However , many ed tech offerings collect large amounts @ @ @ @ @ @ @ employ adequate privacy or security measures .
Experts have found ‘ widespread lack of transparency and inconsistent privacy and security practices in the industry for educational software and other applications used in schools and by children outside the classroom for learning.
’ ” The warning comes as Google ’ s G Suite for Education faces allegations the “ free ” software tracks students inside and outside of school and collects the data for unknown purposes .
New Mexico Attorney General Hector Balderas filed the latest lawsuit against the company in February , when @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Children ’ s Online Privacy Protection Act and other state statutes .
“ While purporting to offer only educational services , Google instead has stripped children and parents of autonomy and control of their most sensitive personal information , forcing children to acquiesce to constant monitoring , in perpetuity , in exchange for their education , ” Balderas wrote in the lawsuit .
In a letter to Alphabet and Google CEO Sundar Pichai Balderas explained that his investigation “ revealed that Google tracks children across the internet , across devices , in their @ @ @ @ @ @ @ sphere , all without obtaining verifiable parental consent.
” “ Google has used this access to collect massive quantities of data from young children not to benefit the schools you have contracted with , but to benefit Google ’ s own commercial interests , ” he wrote .
Google denies the claims , but agreed to a $ 170 million settlement with the FTC and the state of New York last September for collecting data on children through YouTube , Recode reports .
Parents and privacy advocates are also concerned about products offered @ @ @ @ @ @ @ according to the site .
Beyond the privacy concerns , “ the Federal Bureau of Investigation has warned that ‘ [ m ] alicious use of [ student ] data could result in social engineering , bullying , tracking , identity theft , or other means for targeting children , ’ ” the senators wrote to DeVos and the FTC this week .
The lawmakers urged officials to consider several proposals to include in guidance to schools : * Ed tech services should communicate their privacy policies to users conspicuously and in easily @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ’ notice of their data collection and processing practices must be written in plain language so that it is easily understood by students , parents , and educators ; * Ed tech services should not weaken privacy safeguards when users access their tools at home , rather than in classroom settings ; and * Ed tech services that , as a matter of policy or compliance with state or federal law , do not sell or otherwise monetize student data when those services are used in the classroom should apply those same policies @ @ @ @ @ @ @ learning .
They also suggested officials include specific guidance for parents : • Encourage parents to be aware of ed tech services that may provide different versions of their service and different educational opportunities depending on whether a user grants permission for data collection and sharing ; • Encourage parents to take note of whether ed tech services indicate and demonstrate that they employ strong data security practices ; • Encourage parents to communicate with their child ’ s school if they perceive that the ed tech service their child is using appears @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and • Warn parents about the risks that malicious access to student data can pose to their children , including risks of identity theft and invasive tracking .

Biden’s Former Senate Staffer Comes Forward With Graphic ‘Sexual Assault’ Allegation Against Former VP

Biden ’ s Former Senate Staffer Comes Forward With Graphic ‘ Sexual Assault ’ Allegation Against Former VP Remember last year when Lucy Flores came forward and said that Joe Biden had sniffed her hair and kissed her head right before they walked out on stage for a campaign event ?
Flores was running for lieutenant governor in Nevada and her race wasn ’ t looking all that good so she welcomed help from former Vice President Joe Biden .
Biden ’ s team offered to bring him to a campaign rally in an effort to help boost voter turnout @ @ @ @ @ @ @ when Biden got inappropriate with Ms. Flores according to her side the story .
Flores , a Bernie supporter , was shot down when she tried to tell her story last year at the start of the primary season .
She was called “ partisan ” and “ political ” and the whole thing was swept under the rug after Biden made a video and promised to be more “ respectful ” of women ’ s spaces in this new “ age ” of # MeToo .
During that time , a former @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Tara Reade also tried to come forward and tell her story of sexual harassment by Joe Biden in an effort to back up the claims of Ms. Flores .
Reade shared a similar story about Biden touching the back of her neck inappropriately , but before she could say much more about what happened to her , she was quickly shot down and called a “ Russian agent.
” Reade instantly backed off and slinked away , scared of being dragged through the mud by her own political party .
But , she @ @ @ @ @ @ @ telling her entire story to reporter Katie Halper .
I encourage you to listen to the allegation in her own words on the audio below , but I will set it up for you ahead of time : Back around 1993 , Ms. Reade was working as a staffer for Biden when her superior asked her to deliver a “ gym bag ” to Senator Biden .
She was told where she ’ d find Senator Biden , and when she met up with him ( outside ) they were alone in an @ @ @ @ @ @ @ up against a “ marble ” wall , and he began kissing her and placed his hands under her skirt and “ penetrated ” her body with his fingers .
You can listen to the recording below : As a woman , I am always skeptical of these # MeToo type stories , because – I ’ m sorry to be blunt – but women lie .
A lot .
With that said , there was something about this accusation that rang true to me – and no , it ’ s not @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Trust me , there ’ s enough on Biden to bring him down – all of his scandals , love of China , groping women and kids videos , and dementia – this allegation ( sadly ) will likely only be a small ripple in a much bigger pond – but her story has a ring of truth to it .
The details she gives , the way she tells the story , and her willingness to come forward even after being ruthlessly attacked by her own party once before .
Trust me @ @ @ @ @ @ @ political men on the left are not hailed as “ heroes.
” They have a long and hard road to tow .
And my guess his Ms. Reade is in for another round of “ Russian hell.

One Year Later , Cause of Notre Dame Fire Remains a Mystery One year after a fire nearly destroyed the Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris , the cause of the blaze remains a mystery .
On April 15 , 2019 , the 850 year old gothic building was engulfed in flames , sending its iconic spire crumbling to the ground .
Despite police initially asserting that an electrical short circuit was the probable cause of the fire , Europe Echaffaudage said that the electricity supply to the two lifts on the site “ was perfectly within specifications and well maintained.
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ no official conclusion as to how the fire started .
Le Journal des Arts reports that the coronavirus lockdown and the fact that the remains of the original scaffolding that the fire brought down is still on site has delayed the investigation .

As we previously highlighted , following the blaze , the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ give interviews to the media about the Notre Dame fire .

prisonplanet--2020-04-16--CBC Instructs Kids on How to Shut Down Their Parents’ “Conspiracy Theories”

CBC Instructs Kids on How to Shut Down Their Parents ’ “ Conspiracy Theories ” Despite the “ conspiracy theory ” in question literally being true .
A CBC News report gives kids advice on how to shut down “ conspiracy theories ” voiced by their parents about coronavirus being created by China in a lab .
Because apparently that ’ s the media ’ s job now .
The presenter laments how somebody ’ s Dad may drop a message into chat blaming China for “ manufacturing the coronavirus ” with a “ link to a site you ’ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ – a link that ’ s not , God forbid , mainstream media ) .
The piece then features a woman from a group that combats “ misinformation online ” who urges the son or daughter not to get confrontational with their Dad but to accuse him of being accurate and stirring fear .
At one point in the piece , the reporter even suggests that conspiracy theories can be “ just as dangerous as a virus.
” “ Maybe send an article from a legitimate source quoting credible scientists on why the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ states the host .
The suggested article unsurprisingly comes from the CBC and is entitled ‘ No , the new coronavirus wasn ’ t created in a lab , scientists say.
’ In reality , as Fox News sources confirmed last night , the coronavirus was indeed leaked from a laboratory in Wuhan , so to say it was “ manufactured ” isn ’ t even much of a stretch .
The virus was literally created in a lab .
The irony of all this of course is that virtually nobody trusts the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ conspiracy theories it just makes more people believe them .
When social media giants then get involved to censor information about the same conspiracy theories , that also bolsters the notion that they ’ re accurate because powerful interests are trying to stifle them .
Take the news report below as an example .
A reporter who adopts a stereotypical fake ‘ news reporter ’ accent which normal people don ’ t use when they talk to each other tells the viewer that the conspiracy theory linking 5G to coronavirus is false .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ inside what appears to be his own home ( to stress faux authority ) is then presented to call the conspiracy “ completely false.
” The doctor doesn ’ t even explain why it ’ s false ( he could have pointed out for example that Iran was impacted by coronavirus yet has no 5G network at all ) , but the news station just expects the viewer to believe him because he ’ s an authority figure in uniform .
In reality , as the comments below the video prove , the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ report as desperate and hokey , making them believe the conspiracy theory to an even greater degree .
