Yuan Crashes After Trump Weighs Blocking Retirement Fund Access To Chinese Stocks As War Of Words Escalates The Chinese yuan legged dramatically lower in this evening ’ s illiquid session which sees most of Asia closed for May Day .
This after Bloomberg reports that Trump is exploring blocking a government retirement fund from investing in Chinese equities considered a national security risk .
Trump made his initial threats from the Rose Garden at the White House Monday after he was pressed by a reporter over a German newspaper report suggesting that China should be issued a $ 160 billion @ @ @ @ @ @ @ s economy .
The president responded he had a “ much easier ” idea : Asked whether he was considering the use of tariffs or even a debt write-offs for China ( something which Larry Kudlow vehemently rejected earlier on Thursday ) , Trump would not offer specifics .
Since then various plans have been proposed , but Trump escalated the war of words further , during an Oval Office interview with Reuters published Wednesday night , saying that he thinks that China is determined to see him lose the November election based @ @ @ @ @ @ @ coronavirus , and that he is considering various ways to punish the Chinese government which he he again blamed for allowing the virus to spread across the world .
Which was quickly followed by denials from Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Geng Shuang , saying that China has no interest in interfering in internal U.S. affairs ( unless of course that ‘ affair ’ involves investigating the origin of COVID-19 ) .
China hopes some people in U.S. won ’ t drag country into its internal processes , Geng said .
And tonight , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ pressure from concerned lawmakers , according to a person familiar with the internal deliberations , the Trump admin is planning an executive order to block a 2017 decision that The Thrift Savings Plan , the federal government ’ s retirement savings fund , would transfer a massive $ 50 billion to an international fund which would mirror the MSCI All-Country World Index .
The issue being China ’ s addition to the index , and thus the fund being forced to allocate significant capital to the Chinese stock markets , at a time @ @ @ @ @ @ @ are clearly off .
Needless to say , the optics of the US halting capital from entering China would be staggering and could result in a reversion of China-bound capital flows across all Western countries until the current war of words between Trump and Xi rages .
The only problem is that , as we noted yesterday , this particular war of words could last a long time , since there is no longer any impetus to kiss and make up , and if anything , Trump will only escalate the anti-China sentiment @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , to keep pounding that the collapse resulting from the coronavirus pandemic is not his fault , but rather ’ s Beijing , even as China pursues a mirror image approach , blaming the US for launching the pandemic .
The most obvious market reaction for now is in Offshore Yuan which has collapsed in the last two days , extending losses tonight… Of course , much of Asia is on May-Day holiday so liquidity is low , but Yuan ’ s move is significant nevertheless… Bloomberg reports that Senator Marco Rubio , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the move in a statement Thursday .
We would expect China to be furious at this discussion and wonder what they will do to stall this move – one suggestion , given the weakness in US equity futures overnight , is to push volatility back into US markets – to shake the faith in the dramatic market rebound ( that The Fed enabled ) .

Epstein Victim Maria Farmer Calls Billionaire Les Wexner ‘The Head of The Snake’ in Bombshell Interview

Jeffrey Epstein victim Maria Farmer , who along with her younger sister were the first to report Epstein to the FBI all the way back in 1996 , made a series of shocking allegations in a lengthy interview with journalist Whitney Webb .
Farmer accused the FBI of covering for Epstein and being “ in on it ” and said she thinks pro-Israel billionaire Les Wexner is the “ head of the snake ” when it comes to the Epstein network ’ s operation in America .
The man who Maria Farmer named the `` holy grail '' who had @ @ @ @ @ @ @ co. , Andy Stewart ( she refers to him in our call as `` Chef Andy '' ) , died suddenly just as Farmer 's lawyers were seeking to subpoena him for info on the Epstein case .
https : //t.co/kIu4zd01rc From The Last American Vagabond : The Last American Vagabond has decided to release the entire phone conversation between Whitney Webb and Maria Farmer , a victim of Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell who had reported both to the FBI in 1996 for child pornography , sex trafficking and sexual assault .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ mainstream media outlets including The New York Times and CBS News , had reached out to Whitney because Maria felt that other outlets would not publish much of the information she had given them on the case , particularly information related to Ohio billionaire Leslie Wexner , who had close ties to Jeffrey Epstein and his sex trafficking/ blackmail operation .
The phone call will be released in two parts , the first part can be heard below .
The decision to release this phone call was twofold : first , to show @ @ @ @ @ @ @ interviews were indeed accurately based on statements Maria made during the call and to provide greater context to those statements ; and second , to make the information publicly available and more easily disseminated to the widest audience possible .
During the call , Maria covers a lot of ground and the call was never intended to be released as an interview , as Whitney gave Maria free range to discuss situations and topics without prompting from Whitney .
In the first half of the call , Maria discusses her horrific experience at @ @ @ @ @ @ @ preparations for Ghislaine Maxwell and Jeffrey Epstein to receive then-President Clinton on more than one occasion in 1995 and how Ivana Trump , President Trump ’ s ex-wife , frequently accompanied Ghislaine Maxwell when she went to recruit pre-teen girls for Epstein , among many other claims that can and have been corroborated by existing evidence and other interviews Whitney Webb has conducted in relation to the Epstein case .
In addition , Maria provided Whitney with a copy of her drivers license with Wexner ’ s address , which she discusses in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ also be released in the coming days .
One notable comment that Maria makes is regarding the man whom she calls the “ holy grail ” of the Epstein case , Epstein and Maxwell ’ s longtime chef , Andy Stewart .

Prominent Scientists Warned In 2013 Of Chinese Labs ‘ Appalling Irresponsibility ’ With Viruses Experts warned of danger that new viral strains could escape from labs and cause a global pandemic A number of leading western scientists issued a stark warning in 2013 that Chinese researchers in virology labs were playing with fire by mixing animal viruses with human pathogens , and that the new strains could leak into the world , causing a killer pandemic .
The Independent published a piece covering the scientists ’ concerns on Thursday 2 May 2013 .
Senior scientists have criticised the “ appalling @ @ @ @ @ @ @ have deliberately created new strains of influenza virus in a veterinary laboratory .
They warned there is a danger that the new viral strains created by mixing bird-flu virus with human influenza could escape from the laboratory to cause a global pandemic killing millions of people .
The piece concentrates on experiments with bird flu , but it is a known fact that scientists in China were also experimenting with bat borne coronavirus at this time .
The research was condemned by former UK government chief scientist Lord May of Oxford , who @ @ @ @ @ @ @ nothing to further the understanding and prevention of flu pandemics .
“ They claim they are doing this to help develop vaccines and such like .
In fact the real reason is that they are driven by blind ambition with no common sense whatsoever , ” Lord May told The Independent at the time .
“ The record of containment in labs like this is not reassuring .
They are taking it upon themselves to create human-to-human transmission of very dangerous viruses .
It ’ s appallingly irresponsible , ” he said .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ an eminent virologist at the Pasteur Institute in Paris said at the time that “ It ’ s a fabulous piece of virology by the Chinese group and it ’ s very impressive , but they haven ’ t been thinking clearly about what they are doing .

” “ The virological basis of this work is not strong .
It is of no use for vaccine development and the benefit in terms of surveillance for new flu viruses is oversold , ” he added .
Coincidentally , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ age of 84 .
The Scientist notes that “ May ’ s modeling legacy extends to the current outbreak of COVID-19.
” “ The models being used to guide the management of the coronavirus pandemic all have their genesis in the seminal work Lord Robert May undertook 40 years ago with Sir Roy Anderson , ” the piece notes .

A coronavirus-themed video game available on Steam has been banned from China as its content has been deemed “ politically motivated.

Wuhan virus lab ‘cover-up’: Startling photos of scientists wearing little protection as they handle deadly bat samples vanish from website of Chinese institute

Wuhan virus lab ‘ cover-up ’ : Startling photos of scientists wearing little protection as they handle deadly bat samples vanish from website of Chinese institute Pictures which appear to show slack safety standards at the Chinese laboratory at the centre of international suspicion over Covid-19 have been systematically deleted from its website – as Donald Trump continues to ramp up the pressure on Beijing over its potential role in the outbreak .
During the past month , Wuhan ’ s Institute of Virology has removed photographs of scientists working in its laboratories and edited out references to visits by @ @ @ @ @ @ @ about the laboratory ’ s work on bats .
US President Donald Trump announced on Thursday that he had seen intelligence that gave him a ‘ high degree of confidence ’ that the global crisis had its origins in the institute – a month after The Mail on Sunday first revealed that British Cabinet Ministers had received classified briefings raising the possibility of a leak from the institute .
Downing Street did not take issue with President Trump ’ s remarks .
‘ There are clearly questions that need to be answered about @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , ’ a spokesman for Boris Johnson said .
The edited material includes a page of the institute ’ s website showing pictures of staff entering caves to take swabs from bats carrying coronaviruses – with the scientists wearing minimal protective equipment .
And the institute appears to have also removed reference to a visit to the institute in March 2018 of Rick Switzer , a science and technology expert from the US embassy in Beijing .

Leaked ‘ Five Eyes ’ dossier on alleged Chinese coronavirus coverup consistent with US findings , officials say A research dossier compiled by the so-called “ Five Eyes ” intelligence alliance , that reportedly concludes China intentionally hid or destroyed evidence of the coronavirus pandemic , is consistent with U.S. findings about the origins of the outbreak so far , senior U.S. officials told Fox News on Saturday .
The 15-page document from the intelligence agencies of the U.S. , Canada , the U.K. , Australia and New Zealand , was obtained by Australia ’ s Saturday Telegraph newspaper and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to an “ assault on international transparency.
” The dossier , which is likely to further increase pressure on the Chinese government to explain its actions and early statements , points to the initial denial by the government that the virus could be transmitted between humans , the silencing of doctors , destruction of evidence , and a refusal to provide samples to scientists working on a vaccine .
Trump recently confirmed to the press that the covid-19 virus emerged from a lab in Wuhan , China , and shames the W.H.O .

While U.S. intelligence is not confirming the existence of the 15-page document , a senior official told Fox that reports of the document aligns with U.S. intelligence that China knew the spread between humans earlier than it said , that it knew it was a novel coronavirus earlier than it said and that it was spread wider than they reported to the international community in the first weeks of the outbreak .

“ The Whole Thing ’ s A Farce ” – ‘ Conspiracy Theories ’ Thrive As Texans Flock Back To Shopping Malls Texas is the largest US state to allow a substantial number of retailers and other businesses to reopen for the first time on Friday , even as many of the state ’ s Democratic big-city mayors urged residents and business owners to ignore the governor ’ s advice .
To try and get a sense of how the beating heart of Texas retail – the Barton Creek Square in Austin – was faring during its first day back @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the Texas Tribune ventured out to the capital city ’ s biggest mall to commiserate with shoppers bold enough to risk infection over a pair of sneakers , as the TT piece put it .
What the reporters found was hardly surprising : stores barely managing to meet the 25 % max-capacity threshold set by the governor , a threshold at which most businesses simply can not operate profitably .
As a result , only a handful of Barton Creek ’ s smaller stores were open ; all of the mall ’ s @ @ @ @ @ @ @ been particularly hard hit by the downturn – remained closed .
By the time the mall opened at 11am local time yesterday , lines of shoppers had formed , with everyone standing six feet apart , and lines forming outside stores allowing only a handful of shoppers to enter at a time .
Most of the patrons were there to shop , it seemed – little things mostly ; shoes , swimsuits etc .
At least one told the TT that she was just out to get some exercise .
They ranged from @ @ @ @ @ @ @ temperature-checkers were present when the doors opened ; no masks , nor sanitizing wipes , were handed out .
Shoppers were basically left to look after themselves One thing that caught our attention : the surprising number of individuals interviewed by the TT to expressed doubt about the virus ( one called the outbreak “ a farce ” ) or endorsed some other conspiratorially-oriented view .
By 10:58 , a line had formed outside an entrance adjacent to the Cheesecake Factory .
Patrons , many wearing masks , kept a 6-foot distance from @ @ @ @ @ @ @ pressed onto the concrete to direct them where to stand .
The line included an avid mall-walker hoping to exercise away from the Texas heat , a mother whose young kids — each no older than 10 — all wore face masks and an Austin-area teacher convinced the coronavirus was cooked up by President Donald Trump , Russia ’ s President Vladimir Putin and North Korean leader Kim Jong-un .
Though most customers wore masks , as mandated by law , only a handful of patrons wore gloves .
Friday was the first @ @ @ @ @ @ @ retail outlets and movie theaters were allowed to reopen in Texas after being closed since the beginning of April .
According to Gov Abbot ’ s order , stores can open , but must limit occupancy to 25 % of capacity .
As several mall employees eagerly told the TT ( speaking anonymously for fear of losing their jobs ) , the governor ’ s order was actually making it harder on most small businesses , as they ’ re essentially being forced to operate at a loss , and employees are being @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the fact that both the business and the employees were probably better served with the ‘ PPP ’ loan-to-grant scheme and of course the beefed-up unemployment checks that , combined with the stimulus , have left many hourly workers with more in their pocket than they would otherwise have .

Some employees returned to work reluctantly .

“ None of the businesses can survive on 25 % business , ” said the employee , who spoke under the condition of anonymity because he wasn ’ t licensed by the mall to talk to the press .
“ All the major stores are closed .
We get business when people come to the major stores , and then it all flows and comes to the kiosk , ” he said .
“ We do @ @ @ @ @ @ @ but the governor should ’ ve waited until we were at 50-75 % so we have a chance to survive or not open at all.

Nigel Farage Warns EU Will Use Coronavirus to Prevent Brexit Nigel Farage has warned that the European Union will attempt to use the Chinese coronavirus crisis to “ trap ” the United Kingdom into an extended Brexit transition period .

Heathrow Boss Says ‘ Social Distancing ’ Will Never Work at Airports Queues to board flights would be a kilometer long .
Heathrow boss John Holland-Kaye warns that ‘ social distancing ’ measures would never work at airports because queues to board flights would be a kilometer long .

This is practically impossible in many situations , most @ @ @ @ @ @ @ which is notoriously crowded virtually all the time .
Now the CEO of Heathrow Airport has poured cold water on the idea that ‘ social distancing ’ could be practiced inside airports .

“ Just one jumbo jet would require a queue a kilometer long , ” @ @ @ @ @ @ @ A380 passenger plane seats 500 people , the notion that all those people could keep two meters distance as they board the plane just isn ’ t feasible .

Two Separate Reports Confirm ‘ Most Intel Agencies ’ In US Believe Coronavirus Came From Wuhan Lab A senior US intelligence official says most of the 17 intelligence agencies have decided the virus leaked out of Chinese facility Two separate reports cited a senior intelligence official as confirming that most of the 17 US intelligence agencies believe that the coronavirus originated in the Wuhan Institute of virology .
The Daily Caller spoke to one senior official , who anonymously related that “ the majority view among the US intelligence community agencies is that COVID-19 is natural and accidentally leaked out @ @ @ @ @ @ @ official told the news site that not all agencies are “ fully behind the idea ” that the spread was due to an accidental laboratory leak , but “ most believe that to be the case.
” The official also stated that the intelligence agencies are unanimously in agreement that the outbreak “ was not the result of an intentional act.
” The report dovetails with details contained in a Fox News investigation , which also cited a senior official as saying that most of the intel community is decided on the lab @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Roberts reported Saturday “ there is agreement among most of the 17 Intelligence agencies that COVID-19 originated in the Wuhan lab .
The source stressed that the release is believed to be a MISTAKE , and was not intentional.
” The agencies that have yet to commit to the theory as confirmed are awaiting a more solid “ smoking gun , ” according to the official .
The findings come after a ‘ five eyes ’ report was leaked , detailing how the intelligence agencies of the US , UK , Australia , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ engaged in a cover up of the real severity of the outbreak .
The document , obtained by Australia ’ s Saturday Telegraph newspaper , finds that China ’ s secrecy amounted to an “ assault on international transparency.
” The confirmation from the senior US official contradicts a report in the New York Times last week that suggested the White House has unduly pressured intelligence agencies to link the Wuhan bio-lab to the coronavirus outbreak .
The story was repeatedly cited by mainstream sources and leftist websites , to suggest that US @ @ @ @ @ @ @ notion , when that clearly appears to be the opposite of what is happening .
Prominent scientists are on record dating back years , with warnings that Chinese virus research is unsafe , with many saying that the Wuhan institute has to be considered the number one suspect as the origin for the current global pandemic .

prisonplanet--2020-05-04--AP: Intel Docs Claim China “Intentionally Concealed The Severity” Of Coronavirus To Hoard Supplies

AP : Intel Docs Claim China “ Intentionally Concealed The Severity ” Of Coronavirus To Hoard Supplies China ’ s changes in imports and export behavior were not within normal range The Associated Press has obtained a US Department of Homeland Security intelligence report that concludes China covered up the extent of the coronavirus outbreak , including the fact that it was contagious in humans , in order to stock up on medical supplies and protection equipment before the rest of the world knew .
The four page report dated May 1 , outlines how US officials believe China “ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ outbreak in January .
The report details how China downplayed the spread of the virus while increasing imports and decreasing exports of medical supplies .
China simultaneously denied that “ there were export restrictions and obfuscating and delaying provision of its trade data , ” the report states .
The document also contends that China intentionally delayed informing the World Health Organization that the coronavirus “ was a contagion ” for almost a month .
As we have documented , the WHO merely parroted China ’ s claims , until it was able @ @ @ @ @ @ @ January 20th , whereupon a medical worker immediately told the organisation that the virus was contagious in humans .
Even then , the WHO did not declare a pandemic until the 12th of March .
Throughout this time , China was ordering medical supplies from abroad , and its imports of face masks , surgical gowns and gloves increased sharply , according to the report .
The document concludes that there is a 95 % probability that China ’ s changes in imports and export behavior were not within normal range .
We @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the coronavirus outbreak 4 weeks ago , in a report collating several articles that detailed how the CCP blocked US manufacturers exporting medical equipment so it could ‘ corner the market ’ , and even sold Italy ’ s own donated equipment back to the country at an inflated cost .

prisonplanet--2020-05-04--Pompeo Says There’s ‘Enormous Evidence’ Coronavirus Leaked From Wuhan Lab

US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo urged Sunday that there is “ enormous evidence ” that the coronavirus originated and leaked from the Wuhan Institute of virology , with more intelligence document leaks further pointing to a Chinese cover up .
Appearing on ABC ’ s “ This Week , ” Pompeo stressed that the US investigation is turning up significant findings that indicate the virus did not originate at a wet market , but stemmed from scientists working with virus samples in the lab .
“ There ’ s enormous evidence that that ’ s where this began .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ that this was a virus that originated in Wuhan , China .
We took a lot of grief for that from the outset .
But I think the whole world can see now.
” Pompeo stated .
“ Remember , China has a history of infecting the world , and they have a history of running substandard laboratories .
These are not the first times that we ’ ve had a world exposed to viruses as a result of failures in a Chinese lab.
” he continued .
“ And so , while @ @ @ @ @ @ @ work , they should continue to do that , and verify so that we are certain , I can tell you that there is a significant amount of evidence that this came from that laboratory in Wuhan.
” Pompeo stressed .
The Secretary squarely blamed China , saying that “ The Chinese Communist Party had the opportunity to prevent all of the calamity that has befallen the world.
” “ This is a classic Communist disinformation effort.
” Pompeo said , noting “ We ’ ve seen the fact that they kicked the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that those who were trying to report on this , medical professionals inside of China , were silenced .
They shut down reporting — all the kind of things that authoritarian regimes do , the way Communist parties operate.
” “ The Australians agree with that .
You hear the Europeans beginning to say the same thing .
I think the whole world is united in understanding that China brought this virus to the world.
” Pompeo said , in a statement that may have been a reference to the leaked ‘ five @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the globe that concurs the Chinese instituted a cover up .
“ We ’ re going to hold those responsible accountable , and we ’ ll do so on a timeline that is our own.
” Pompeo urged .
CCP mouthpiece Hu Xijin , editor-in-chief of the state-owned Global Times later responded to Pompeo ’ s comments , challenging the Secretary to present the “ enormous evidence ” that the virus was leaked from a Chinese lab “ to the world.
” “ By demanding to investigate Wuhan lab , they are trying @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to fool the American public , ” Xijin claimed .

prisonplanet--2020-05-04--New Study Warns Up To 70% Of Americans Will Eventually Catch COVID-19 And The Pandemic Could Last 2

New Study Warns Up To 70% Of Americans Will Eventually Catch COVID-19 And The Pandemic Could Last 2 Years

New Study Warns Up To 70 % Of Americans Will Eventually Catch COVID-19 And The Pandemic Could Last 2 Years Are we still going to be dealing with this coronavirus pandemic in 2022 ?
According to a shocking new study that was just released by the Center for Infectious Disease Research and Policy , the total duration of this pandemic “ will likely be 18 to 24 months ” , and “ 60 % to 70 % of the population ” may need to catch the virus before we get to the point of herd immunity .
Of course I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that most people in the United States will eventually catch this virus because this pandemic will never be over until herd immunity is achieved .
But most of our politicians are carefully avoiding using the phrase “ herd immunity ” because they don ’ t want to alarm the general population .
These days , the mainstream media is full of talk about “ reopenings ” and “ recovery ” , but the raw numbers paint an entirely different picture .
Despite the fact that most of the country has been locked down @ @ @ @ @ @ @ deadliest day so far .
The following comes from CNBC… If this is happening even though most people are currently confined to their homes , what is going to happen once a whole bunch of states attempt to “ reopen ” ?
I think that we all know the answer to that question .
But as long as our hospitals can handle it , we should allow people to go back to work , because the truth is that this virus is going to burn through our population whether there are lockdowns or @ @ @ @ @ @ @ new study from the Center for Infectious Disease Research and Policy is projecting that the virus will not finally burn itself out until about 70 percent of the population is immune… There are many that are hoping that a “ vaccine ” can get us to herd immunity a lot faster , but that is a false hope .
If you don ’ t believe me , go to Google and do a search for an instance where scientists have developed a successful vaccine for a coronavirus .
You won ’ t find @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a successful vaccine for any coronavirus in all of human history .
We can slow down this pandemic by implementing lockdowns , but that just kills the economy and extends the suffering .
In the end , there is no way that we are going to be able to stop this pandemic until herd immunity is achieved , and that is precisely what this new CIDRAP study is saying… Lockdowns were never going to end this pandemic , and anyone that thought that was not being realistic .
For now , we have @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , but CIDRAP is also warning us that we need to brace ourselves for more waves to come… If you work in a setting where you have any sort of interaction with the public at all , there is very high probability that you will catch this virus .
And once you catch this virus , there is a very high probability that you will spread it to the rest of your family .
The good news is that many people never get any symptoms at all , and most of those that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ more than 68,000 Americans have died during this pandemic so far , and the death toll will almost certainly cross 100,000 in a few weeks .
So the truth is that this pandemic is killing a lot of people , and we need to take it very seriously .
Before COVID-19 ever hit our shores , I was warning my readers to “ get prepared ” , and thankfully a lot of them did just that .
And it turns out that many among the elite were busily preparing for a future crisis @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was stunned to learn that Bill and Melinda Gates stored up food in advance .
The following comes from a recent BBC interview… EMMA BARRETT : In terms of your own — again , just to talk about you and Bill for being so familiar with this — had you made any preparations ?
I was very struck by when I rewatched Bill ’ s talk from 2015 , he rolled that barrel onto the stage and said , “ When I was growing up , nuclear was kind of the threat , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ all sorts of threats like that , and we had this barrel in our basement where we ’ d have to go and eat out of it if we went in.
” Had you done preparation in your own lives ?
MELINDA GATES : We had done some preparation , yes .
BARRETT : What does the mean in terms of — because we had issues here in the UK with people panic shopping — how does a couple like you , who has this insight , how do you get prepared for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ years ago , we talked about , “ What if there wasn ’ t clean water ?
What if there wasn ’ t enough food ?
Where might we go ?
What might we do as a family ?
” So , I think we should leave those preparations to ourselves .
We had prepared , and had some food in the basement in case needed , and now we ’ re all in the same situation .
Sadly , most ordinary Americans didn ’ t do anything to prepare in advance , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ why there was so much “ panic buying ” during the early stages of this pandemic .
But now a lot of people are being lulled into a false sense of security again , and the mainstream media just keeps insisting that the worst part of this pandemic is now behind us .
It would be great if that was true , but what if it isn ’ t ?
What if CIDRAP is correct and this pandemic stretches all the way into 2022 ?
Ultimately , a lot more Americans are going @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Americans are going to die in the months ahead , and it appears that our battle with this virus could still be in the very early chapters .

prisonplanet--2020-05-04--Here Is Why The U.S. Economy Would Continue To Crash Even If All The Lockdowns Were Lifted Immediate

Here Is Why The U.S. Economy Would Continue To Crash Even If All The Lockdowns Were Lifted Immediately COVID-19 has created an enormous amount of fear , and that fear is doing far more damage to the economy than the actual virus is .
In an environment of fear , financial institutions become a lot tighter with their money , and that inevitably causes economic activity to slow down .
For example , just consider what happened in 2008 .
Mortgage lending standards suddenly became much more strict , and that greatly contributed to the horrific housing price crash which @ @ @ @ @ @ @ on their mortgages .
Unfortunately , this coronavirus pandemic has created a wave of fear that is far greater than what we experienced during the last recession , and that has enormous implications for the months ahead .
Extremely loose lending standards helped create debt-fueled “ booms ” throughout our economy in recent years , but now lending standards are going in the complete opposite direction very rapidly .
For instance , Chase is now requiring a credit score of at least 700 for all new home loans , and they are one @ @ @ @ @ @ @ requiring a down payment of at least 20 percent… If you own your home , would you have been approved for a mortgage under the new Chase standards ?
And Chase is far from alone .
In fact , most major mortgage lenders have now tightened up , and Redfin is estimating that about a quarter of all home buyers last year would not have qualified under the new standards .
So if you remove about a quarter of all buyers from the marketplace moving forward , what happens to the housing market @ @ @ @ @ @ @ implosion , and it will happen no matter whether coronavirus lockdowns are in effect or not .
And home equity loans are going to be hit even harder .
As I discussed last week , Wells Fargo is no longer taking HELOC applications at all .
So now matter how good your credit is , you simply can not get a home equity line of credit from Wells Fargo at this point .
This is what fear does .
We see similar things happening in the credit card industry .
Standards have been @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in some instances existing customers are having their limits slashed or their cards suddenly canceled .
The following comes from Newsweek… If you think that this won ’ t have a dramatic impact on the U.S. economy , then you probably haven ’ t been paying attention .
Our economy is a consumer driven economy , and if consumers don ’ t have access to easy credit there is no way in the world that economic activity will return to previous levels .
Of course even if they did have access to easy @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of this virus that they have no intention of resuming normal economic patterns any time soon… Here ’ s hoping you enjoyed the last movie or concert you attended , because if the results of a new survey are accurate , it may be a long , long time before such events are ever popular again .
According to the research , 40 % of Americans plan to avoid public spaces unless “ absolutely necessary ” long after the coronavirus pandemic has subsided .
The survey , commissioned by Vital Vio , asked @ @ @ @ @ @ @ every day life in the wake of the coronavirus .
All in all , it looks like there are suddenly a whole lot more germaphobes in the land of the free .
Over four in five ( 82 % ) said they are now more aware of , and concerned about , cleaning protocols in public areas .
Additionally , 58 % are more suspicious about their friends ’ and family ’ s hygiene habits .
And a lot of companies are also going to be extremely hesitant to “ return to normal @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
Earlier today , I was stunned to learn that 771 coronavirus-related lawsuits have already been filed… I have repeatedly warned my readers that it will be exceedingly difficult to “ return to normal ” in our overly litigious society , but even I didn ’ t expect so many lawsuits so soon .
And this is just the beginning .
Eventually there will be thousands upon thousands of coronavirus lawsuits , and they will tie up our courts for the foreseeable future .
This pandemic just seems to be magnifying everything that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ at this point the future looks so bleak that even perpetually optimistic Warren Buffett is throwing in the cards… Buffett understands that fear of this virus is going to paralyze air travel for a very long time to come , and he is getting out while he still can .
But if our society can not even handle COVID-19 , what will things look like once much worse things start happening ?
It has been sobering to watch how rapidly our “ snowflake society ” has melted during this pandemic .
Now virtually @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , and the once great U.S. economy is crashing all around us .
And the really bad news is that this is just the beginning… This article was posted : Monday , May 4 , 2020 at 3:41 am

More than 900 Missouri residents who ‘ snitched ’ on lockdown rule-breakers fear retaliation after their details are leaked online Hundreds of people have been exposed for reporting people who have flouted social distancing rules and some are now scared they could receive a backlash .

St. Louis County had urged the community to share details @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to the coronavirus pandemic and noted in the terms and conditions that information may be shared publicly .
However some people may not have read the small print submitted tips via an online form and email from the end of March .

Watch : Park Ranger Thrown Into Lake In Texas Over ‘ Social Distancing ’ Enforcement There ’ s been an increasing number of incidents between law enforcement and antsy Americans eager to get back outdoors after being sick of ‘ stay at home ’ and state-wide lockdown measures .
But often individuals ’ desire for a rapid return to normal is butting up against continuing social distance requirements still in place in most states , even those already opening up their economies .
A viral video showed one such recent tense encounter in Texas , when a park ranger attempted @ @ @ @ @ @ @ partiers at a large city park and nature area .
It happened at the Commons Ford Metropolitan Park in Austin , Texas .
A group on Lake Austin was reportedly unlawfully drinking and smoking on the grounds when a ranger approached and ordered them to “ disperse ” also due to people apparently not standing six feet apart .
That ’ s when things got physical , resulting in the officer being pushed or thrown into the water , according to widely circulating footage : Though the laughing group of what appeared to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ prank , police later apprehended and arrested a 25-year old man for assault on the ranger .
The man initially tried to run away as the ranger struggled to get out of the water .
It illustrates a rising trend of frustrated citizens coming up against local law enforcement eager to see safe distancing between patrons .
The Austin-American Statesman described the scene : “ Keep that 6 feet of distance with each other , ” the ranger says .
Some in the crowd are heard saying “ will do ” and “ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the ranger is pushed into the water .
Hicks could have “ caused the ranger to strike his head on the dock as he was falling , ” the affidavit says .
Other onlookers came to the ranger ’ s aid and even apologized for the young man ’ s behavior .
The culprit was later charged with a felony for assault on a law enforcement officer .
Likely there will be many more such encounters in various contexts across states in the coming days , as more and more Americans begin taking @ @ @ @ @ @ @ state and local distancing orders .
Though we might also note that fiercely independent Texans typically lead the way when it comes to such drastic actions signaling anger and defiance .
Local reports said the park actually temporarily closed again after the incident , due to crowds failing to heed social distancing warnings in general .

The Czech Republic recently erected boards with signs informing their Chinese tourists of the events of the Tiananmen Square protests which took place in 1989–something that has been reportedly covered up by the Chinese government for over thirty years .
The cultural significance of these boards comes at a time where China ’ s reputation , on a global scale , is at an all-time low .

” Steam ’ s official rules specifically forbid threatening and abusive speech as well as speech which “ otherwise violate [ s ] the legal rights ” of others .
Here ’ s an excerpt from their defamatory report titled , “ This is Not a Game : How Steam @ @ @ @ @ @ @ largest and most important online store for PC gamers with over $ 4 Billion in revenue in 2017 , has recently gained popularity among white supremacists for being a platform , like Gab and Telegram , where they can openly express their ideology and calls for violence .
The difference between Steam and social media platforms like Telegram or Gab is that while the latter do not share a formal business relationship with the wider social media industry , Steam has direct and lucrative relationships with most major game companies , including 2K @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , Ubisoft and others .
Many of these game companies have made public statements about and dedicated significant resources towards keeping their products safe from the kinds of hateful ideologies espoused by extremists — while continuing to work with Steam .
Note : the ADL clearly feels Steam is going to defend their users ’ speech and so they ’ re threatening to damage their business relationships to try and force them to submit .
This appears to be a clear cut case of tortious inference .
The ADL similarly threatened the entire @ @ @ @ @ @ @ institute a ban on male child genital mutilation by suggesting they would use their close media relationships to smear their island nation as being “ associated with Nazism ” to damage their tourism industry .
They ’ re clearly following the exact same playbook now with Steam .

prisonplanet--2020-05-05--GOP: China Has Infiltrated US Higher Education To Impede Coronavirus Research

GOP : China Has Infiltrated US Higher Education To Impede Coronavirus Research Congressional Republicans claim China is spreading communist propaganda through US universities Congressional Republicans are accusing China of attempting to hinder US coronavirus research by infiltrating US universities and spreading communist propaganda .
Reuters reports that ranking GOP members across seven House committees have delivered a letter to Education Secretary Betsy DeVos that warns Beijing is indoctrinating American students .
The letter was signed by Congressman Jim Jordan , the ranking Republican on the House Oversight committee , as well as by members on the Homeland Security , Science @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and Foreign Affairs committees .
The letter requests that DeVos provide more information pertaining to the allegations against China , including all documents related to schools that have accepted funds from China , as well as details of any investigations into colleges and education officials who may have accepted “ gifts ” from the communist state .
“ We write to seek a better understanding of the Department ’ s efforts to address unreported foreign direct investment into the U.S. higher education system , ” the letter reads .
“ We have been @ @ @ @ @ @ @ government to use its strategic investments to turn American college campuses into indoctrination platforms for American students , ” the congressmen further write .
“ China has strategically invested in U.S. academia to attempt to steal confidential information and technology from U.S. companies , and even the U.S. government , ” the lawmakers state in the letter , pointing to a 2018 report from the Hoover Institution identifying upwards of 110 Confucius Institutes operating on American colleges to facilitate China ’ s espionage and theft of intellectual property .
They add that “ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ U.S. institutions of higher education ( IHE ) , China is restricting any research regarding the origins of COVID-19 that does not comport with CCP propaganda.
” These actions “ bring into question whether U.S. [ institutes of higher education ] receiving federal taxpayer dollars should be allowed to accept funds from China , the CCP , or other affiliated organizations , ” the letter concludes .
Commenting on the letter , Rep. Jim Jordan said “ We can not allow a dangerous communist regime to buy access to our institutions of higher @ @ @ @ @ @ @ The Chinese Communist Party ’ s cover-up of the early outbreak of the coronavirus immeasurably worsened this disease ’ s impact on the United States and the world.
” Jordan urged , adding that “ We owe it to the American people to hold China accountable and to prevent them from doing further harm to our country.
” The suspicions of Chinese infiltration of US higher education pre-dates the coronavirus crisis , with the Department of Education instigating an investigation into several universities last year to determine if they had failed to disclose @ @ @ @ @ @ @ department announced it has uncovered $ 6.5 billion so far in undisclosed foreign funding from Saudi Arabia , Qatar , China and Russia .
The investigation has since been expanded to include Harvard and Yale .
The FBI has previously issued warnings regarding China investing in American higher education to steal sensitive information , primarily via access through federal grants .
In January , the Department of Justice also arrested a professor at Harvard , as well as two Chinese nationals for reportedly acting as foreign agents .
Last year President Donald Trump @ @ @ @ @ @ @ which proposed an ultimatum to universities receiving financial assistance from the Pentagon : close the Chinese propaganda center on campus or lose funding .
Since that time , at least 49 schools have closed their Confucius Institute , according to Human Rights Watch .

YouTube ’ s Chief Product Officer Insults His Own Users as Basement-Dwelling Idiots YouTube ’ s Chief Product Officer has insulted his own users as basement-dwellers who deserve to be relegated by the algorithm in favor of “ authoritative ” mainstream sources .
Neil Mohan made the remarks during an interview with Protocol ’ s editor at large David Pierce after he was asked if YouTube had to switch its approach to moderating content given the ever changing advice of health authorities in relation to the coronavirus .
Mohan said that this was the reason YouTube was “ raising up @ @ @ @ @ @ @ euphemism for suppressing voices that aren ’ t part of the mainstream media , despite the fact that the public ’ s trust in the media during the coronavirus pandemic has plummeted even further .
He then went on to insult his own user base as basement-dwelling idiots .
“ As opposed to , you know , it ’ s somebody espousing their opinions about a mask , you know , in their basement , ” said Mohan .
“ This is coming from an authoritative channel , a news source , a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ s the case , we think there ’ s going to be some context that ’ s provided around the question of masks .
And even if that guidance changes , it will be reflected in sort of how an authoritative voice or channel talks about it.
” Mohan then made it clear how non-mainstream channels are algorithmically shadow banned by “ removing or reducing views of the videos where that same level of authority hasn ’ t been established.
” Of course , the only reason why so-called “ authoritative ” sources @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is because the company rigged its own algorithm to heavily favor them while dumping the very people who helped build YouTube on the trash heap .
Last month , YouTube CEO Susan Wojcicki recently said that information which challenged the World Health Organization would be removed , despite the fact that the WHO was directly complicit in helping China cover-up the severity of coronavirus in its early stages and despite the fact the organization gave harmful advice in ordering countries not to close their borders early on .
“ Mohan ’ s comments @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in relation to the coronavirus and news coverage have made it almost impossible for independent creators to cover current events , even when the mainstream media outlets that are being raised up have a track record of getting it wrong , ” writes Tom Parker .

prisonplanet--2020-05-05--Report: France Will Use Existing Surveillance Grid To Enforce Social Distancing, Mask Wearing

Report : France Will Use Existing Surveillance Grid To Enforce Social Distancing , Mask Wearing The surveillance systems now being put to use have already been in place for a long time France will use its existing network of surveillance cameras to monitor how many people are wearing masks and track how citizens are complying with social distancing after its coronavirus lockdown is eased next week , according to reports .
The BBC notes that “ The resort city of Cannes on the Côte d ’ Azur has trialled the monitoring software , installed at outdoor markets and on buses.
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ the software says its algorithms “ can be incorporated into existing surveillance systems in other public spaces , such as hospitals , stations , airports and shopping centres.
” The company claims that the software being installed to work with existing cameras does not violate EU data privacy laws because “ No image is stored or transmitted.
” Cannes Mayor David Lisnard said , “ This technology doesn ’ t identify people but just gives us mathematical analysis to meet people ’ s needs.
” So , essentially , it ’ s ok @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ensure you comply , so long as they don ’ t keep your picture on a hard drive .
France already announced that face masks will be compulsory on public transport and in schools from next week .
The country ’ s lockdown has been more severe than most , with anyone traveling outside their home needing papers approved by the authorities .
Anyone found outside without the relevant documents is subject to a fine of €135 upwards .
The case in France highlights how the framework of surveillance that has already been @ @ @ @ @ @ @ decades is now being used to enforce the removal of freedoms .
We also recently highlighted how tech companies all over the world are developing more sophisticated tools that will allow law enforcement to more effectively police social distancing rules .
We are so used to surveillance now that for many it doesn ’ t seem that much more of a change to simply give over total compliance and acceptance of a panopticon world .
Coronavirus was just the crisis need to institute permanent societal lockdown using already existing tools , as well @ @ @ @ @ @ @ into those systems already in place .

prisonplanet--2020-05-05--US Universities Creating Social Credit Style Coronavirus Surveillance System

App will generate “ personal risk scores ” and determine the need “ for quarantine and decontamination.
” Three US universities are responding to the coronavirus crisis by creating ( irony of all ironies ) a Chinese style social credit surveillance system that will ‘ score ’ people based on their exposure to the virus .
According to a report from Tech site dot.LA , researchers at the University of Southern California , Emory University , and the University of Texas Health Science Center are jointly working on the system after receiving federal grant funding .
Like the Chinese social @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of a mobile app for contact tracing the virus , and promises to track the real-time location and symptoms of individuals to calculate “ personal risk scores ” .
The score would be used to determine the need “ for quarantine and decontamination , ” according to the report , with “ aggregate risk scores ” also assigned to “ locations like your neighborhood grocery store.
” The universities hope to have a working mobile app by August , in time for the start of the fall semester .
Welcome to the new @ @ @ @ @ @ @ system will all be positive .
When the coronavirus vaccine eventually comes along the system will presumably be updated to show who has had it and who hasn ’ t .
High social credit points for those who have taken it , no travel privileges for those who refuse !
The report notes that “ Countries such as South Korea or China have used location-based digitized contact tracing .
However , it has only been successful because citizens are forced to download it , opt into location monitoring , and regularly check in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ” “ In that setting where there ’ s 100 % mandated compliance , it ’ s been shown it can work , in our setting in the United States , I don ’ t see that really happening , ” said Dr. Jeffrey Klausner , a professor of medicine at UCLA .
“ We have enough problems with governors issuing orders and denying free personal movement , that the idea that people are going to be ordered to download apps to monitor their movement is highly unlikely and probably not constitutional.
” @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ’ s going to be difficult to get Americans to agree to involuntary surveillance.
” The report further notes that the social credit scoring could “ become problematic if a school or employer requires students or workers reveal them as a condition of receiving a benefit , entering a building or returning to their office.
” “ When you introduce ‘ scoring ’ that takes other factors into account , it complicates everything , and increases the risk that users will be misinformed or discriminated against due to factors beyond their control , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , a professor of computer science .
Indeed , the Chinese social credit system has reportedly blacklisted more than 13 million citizens as “ untrustworthy , ” state media recently bragged .
And what heinous behaviour led to the distinction ?
Well , jaywalking for one .
According to Chinese media , other violations stretch to the following : – Bad driving .
– Smoking on trains .
– Buying too many video games .
– Buying too much junk food .
– Buying too much alcohol .
– Calling a friend who @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Having a friend online who has a low credit score .
– Posting “ fake news ” online .
– Criticizing the government .
– Visiting unauthorized websites .
– Walking your dog without a leash .
– Letting your dog bark too much .
The punishment for such a designation as “ discredited entity ” is to be barred from traveling by train or plane .
The system is enforced via facial recognition cameras .
Is this our collective future ?
Apple and Google announced this year that they are working on @ @ @ @ @ @ @ tracing of the coronavirus using smartphone location data .

prisonplanet--2020-05-05--America Has Become “The Land Of The Snitches” During This Coronavirus Pandemic

America Has Become “ The Land Of The Snitches ” During This Coronavirus Pandemic Michael Snyder End of The American Dream May 5 , 2020 For those that wondered if Americans would be willing to report on their neighbors on a widespread basis during a major crisis , you now have your answer .
All over the country , calls have been pouring in to authorities from “ concerned citizens ” that are quite eager to point a finger at their neighbors for violating the coronavirus lockdowns .
In fact , it has been reported that some very nosy people @ @ @ @ @ @ @ calling 911 to report that their neighbors were coughing inside their own homes .
Of course the mainstream media is not exactly helping matters when they use phrases such as “ death sentence ” to describe this pandemic .
Yes , we should all be taking this virus very seriously , but the truth is that this is not the end of the world and everyone needs to calm down .
Do we really want to have a society where everyone is spying on their neighbors ?
When I read that a mother @ @ @ @ @ @ @ police because she had permitted her daughter to go play at a friend ’ s house , it really touched a nerve with me… So how did the police know that her daughter had gone to another house to play ?
Needless to say , someone snitched on her .
And this next story is truly bizarre .
A Colorado woman named Heather Silchia was deeply alarmed when she discovered that her “ neighbors ” had put a really nasty note on her vehicle… The missive read , “ PLEASE STAY HOME .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ you leave home with your baby and return a short time later without it .
Then I see the man of the house arrive with the baby later in the afternoon while your vehicle hasn ’ t moved all day .
This leads me to believe that the kid is in daycare.
” The letter continued , “ Stop .
I am assuming that man has an essential job since he is gone all day but if you are home there is no reason for your child to be in daycare at a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ you leave shortly after your husband ( I assume ) gets home .
You aren ’ t wearing any sort of uniform and I have never seen you wear a mask .
Bars are closed and you couldn ’ t possibly be getting groceries every night ( which would also require you to wear a mask ) so I again ask you to please stay home.
” Well , it turns out that Heather Silchia is actually a 911 dispatcher , and that is why she can ’ t watch her baby all @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for front line workers like her , because they are so greatly needed during a time like this .
Sadly , the examples that I have just shared with you are not isolated incidents .
In fact , it has been revealed that there are hundreds of people that have been snitching on their neighbors in the state of Missouri alone… Hundreds of people have been exposed for reporting people who have flouted social distancing rules and some are now scared they could receive a backlash .
The names and addresses of approximately @ @ @ @ @ @ @ part of a media request under the Sunshine Law , which allows for the release of information submitted to a public agency ( except for wrongdoing and abuse tips ) .
St. Louis County had urged the community to share details of anyone not following guidelines in response to the coronavirus pandemic and noted in the terms and conditions that information may be shared publicly .
However some people may not have read the small print submitted tips via an online form and email from the end of March .
Many had asked @ @ @ @ @ @ @ If things are this bad in Missouri , one can only imagine the level of snitching that is happening in New York or California .
And even though some states are starting to gradually lift their “ shelter-in-place ” orders , the truth is that our society is going to be dealing with “ social distancing ” for a long time to come .
In fact , the way that we share many of our public spaces is in danger of being permanently redefined… Are you kidding me ?
Of course snitches will @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of an environment .
If you sit too close to a snitch in church or you walk too closely behind a snitch on the sidewalk , you may find yourself explaining your actions to the police .
And what is truly tragic is that none of this nonsense is even necessary .
Please take two and a half minutes and watch this video from Dr. Eric Berg .
It is the most important video about this pandemic that I have watched by a wide margin .
After watching the video , I think @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the coronavirus lockdowns should be ended as soon as possible .
Yes , this virus spreads incredibly easily .
But a lot of the people that catch it never show any symptoms at all , and it has become clear that there are things that we can do for those that do become sick to prevent a lot of the really severe cases .
Unfortunately , the mainstream media is not going to tell you the truth .
Instead , they are just going to keep telling you that the death toll projections @ @ @ @ @ @ @ continue to stay home .
Look , the reality of the matter is that most of the population is eventually going to be exposed to this virus no matter if we have lockdowns or not .
So it is very important to be taking your vitamins and to be doing whatever you can to support your immune system .
And it is also very important to understand that this is not even close to the worst thing that we are going to face .
If we can ’ t even handle COVID-19 , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ t even share the truth when scientific studies show absolutely amazing results , what is going to happen to our society when a really severe crisis comes along ?

prisonplanet--2020-05-05--18 Signs That We Are Facing A Record Breaking Economic Implosion In 2020

18 Signs That We Are Facing A Record Breaking Economic Implosion In 2020 In just six weeks , the entire global economy has completely come apart .
All over the world we are seeing numbers fall faster than we ever have before , and the outlook for the rest of the year is exceedingly bleak .
Fear of the coronavirus is going to paralyze global trade for the foreseeable future , and the lockdowns in some nations will last for many months to come .
Here in the United States , some states are attempting to make an effort to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ instances that will involve “ multiple stages ” .
Meanwhile , tens of millions of Americans have already lost their jobs , much of the population has already run through their meager savings , and financial institutions are becoming extremely tight with their money .
Even if COVID-19 disappeared tomorrow , our momentum would still take us into an economic depression , but of course this virus isn ’ t going to disappear any time soon .
After 9/11 our society evolved into an anti-terror state , and COVID-19 is going to permanently @ @ @ @ @ @ @ anyone that was hoping for a quick “ return to normal ” can forget it , because “ normal ” is about to be completely redefined .
The pace at which economic conditions have deteriorated in recent weeks has been absolutely breathtaking , and the numbers just keep getting worse and worse .
The following are 18 signs that we are facing a record breaking economic implosion in 2020… # 1 According to economists surveyed by the Wall Street Journal , the April jobs report will show that the unemployment rate in the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
# 2 U.S. manufacturing orders just crashed by the most ever .
# 3 U.S. gasoline consumption just dropped to the lowest level ever recorded .
# 4 Light vehicle sales in the U.S. just fell to the lowest level that we have seen since the early 1970s .
# 5 The government program that was supposed to get small businesses through this crisis has been a tremendous failure… # 6 The “ coming meat shortages ” are already here .
According to the New York Post , Costco is now rationing @ @ @ @ @ @ @ very serious supply problems… Costco on Monday said it will be limiting customers to just three packages of meat per shopper , while Kroger supermarkets posted an alert on the meat section of its website warning that it may have limited inventory “ due to high demand.
” Grocers have been bracing for a run on meat in mid-May as major meat processing plants , including Tyson Foods , have been forced to shut down production .
But the shortages appear to have come earlier than expected as consumers worried about the meat @ @ @ @ @ @ @ say .
# 7 Global smartphone shipments were down 11.7 percent in the first quarter compared to a year ago .
That represents the fastest drop on record .
# 8 Hong Kong just recorded the worst economic contraction in the city ’ s entire history .
# 9 U.S. consumer spending was down 7.6 percent during the first quarter of 2020 .
# 10 American Airlines posted a loss of 2.2 billion dollars during the first quarter of 2020 .
# 11 It looks like retail giants Neiman Marcus , J .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ for bankruptcy .
# 12 Fox Business is reporting that Hertz is preparing to file for bankruptcy due to plunging car rental ridership .
# 14 Edmunds is projecting that auto sales in the United States this month will be down by more than half compared to April 2019 .
# 15 In Mexico , manufacturing activity is falling at the fastest pace ever recorded .
The following comes from Zero Hedge… # 16 More than 30 million Americans have already lost their jobs , and economists are projecting that millions more will @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
# 17 In March , U.S. home sales declined by double digit percentages in every region of the country .
# 18 White House economic adviser Kevin Hassett is warning that U.S. GDP could fall by up to 30 percent during the second quarter of 2020 .
For investors , the good news is that stock prices have bounced back quite a bit after the initial crash , and many market optimists are hoping that this Fed-fueled rally will keep on rolling .
But others are warning that this is a trap @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is openly telling everyone that this could be the “ last chance to sell ” before another huge move downward… We shall see what happens , but for the moment the financial markets are doing their best to try to defy economic reality .
Unfortunately , economic reality is hitting most Americans like a ton of bricks right now .
We are in the middle of the greatest spike in unemployment that the United States has ever seen by a very wide margin , and most of the jobs that have been lost @ @ @ @ @ @ @ bad as things are already , the truth is that this is just the beginning .
A whole lot more pain is on the way , and it is going to shake our nation to the core .
Our economic and financial bubbles lasted far longer than they should have , but now fear of COVID-19 has burst them all , and it isn ’ t going to be possible to reinflate them this time around .
