revolutionradio--2020-05-23--COVID-19 Has Replaced Osama Bin Laden As The Fall Guy For Lost Liberties

by Robert Bridge via The Strategic Culture Foundation , ZeroHedge.com Fri , 05/22/2020 The government and media have dumped at the doorstep of the coronavirus many of the political , economic and social afflictions that are now ravaging much of the global population .
In reality , they need to point the finger at themselves .
As the mainstream media saturates the airwaves with a daily overdose of coronavirus fear porn , the majority of journalists have given their governments a free pass to enact any draconian measure they see fit .
From the closure of public beaches to forbidding @ @ @ @ @ @ @ seems to have no limits or logic .
And as the media would have us believe , it was the coronavirus that enacted these measures , as opposed to living , breathing , unthinking humans .
What dirty deeds does the new and improved villain of our times stand accused of ?
First and foremost , the coronavirus singlehandedly destroyed the global economy as only ‘ essential ’ businesses may continue to operate .
Thus , thousands of small businesses have been ordered shuttered , de facto destroyed , while countless numbers of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to ‘ shelter-in-place ’ with dwindling financial reserves .
Again , this wanton destruction of a large swath of the economy is not due to bad government decision-making , at least according to the media , but Covid-19 .
“ Jobless claims jump another 4.4 million — 26 million Americans have lost their jobs to the coronavirus , ” reported MarketWatch .
“ It could take two years for the economy to recover from the coronavirus pandemic , ” screamed another headline .
Perhaps it was also the coronavirus that decided that it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ clinics and state-owned liquor stores open during the pandemic , while shutting down houses of worship and gun shops .
Clearly , the coronavirus is an equitable and non-partisan distributor of pain and suffering !
As was the case when battling the evil forces of terrorism ( which has been strangely quiet lately , by the way ) , simply uttering ‘ coronavirus ’ has the same numbing effect as reciting the name ‘ Osama bin Laden.
’ It justifies every means to an end – up to and including the destruction of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ any public debate on the matter .
This is reminiscent of the hysteria , complete with mysterious anthrax attacks , which accompanied passage of the PATRIOT Act , the freedom-killing legislation that was rammed through Congress in the weeks following the terrorist attacks of 9/11 without a formal reading by lawmakers .
And just like post-9/11 , when people question the draconian coronavirus measures they are vilified and accused of being ‘ conspiracy theorists ’ and even ‘ terrorists.

Now it is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Germany are forced to lay off workers and slashed production as dire economic conditions roll across the entire EU .

As the mainstream media saturates the airwaves with a daily overdose of coronavirus fear porn, the majority of journalists have given their governments a free pass to enact any draconian measure they see fit. From the closure of public beaches to forbidding power boats on waterways, the insanity seems to have no limits or logic. And as the media would have us believe, it was the coronavirus that enacted these measures, as opposed to living, breathing, unthinking humans.

First and foremost, the coronavirus singlehandedly destroyed the global economy as only ‘essential’ businesses may continue to operate. Thus, thousands of small businesses have been ordered shuttered, de facto destroyed, while countless numbers of people around the world have been ordered to ‘shelter-in-place’ with dwindling financial reserves.
Again, this wanton destruction of a large swath of the economy is not due to bad government decision-making, at least according to the media, but Covid-19.
“Jobless claims jump another 4.4 million — 26 million Americans have lost their jobs to the coronavirus,” reported MarketWatch.
“It could take two years for the economy to recover from the coronavirus pandemic,” screamed another headline.
Perhaps it was also the coronavirus that decided that it would make perfect sense to keep abortion clinics and state-owned liquor stores open during the pandemic, while shutting down houses of worship and gun shops. Clearly, the coronavirus is an equitable and non-partisan distributor of pain and suffering!

Nearly 5,000 people took part in a rally against #coronavirus restrictions in #Stuttgart on Saturday, #Germany's largest such protest over the weekend.

The Worst Unemployment Spike In U.S. History – 1 Out Of Every 4 Workers Has Filed For Unemployment Benefits In 2020

Even though most U.S. states have begun the process of “ reopening ” their economies , the unprecedented tsunami of job losses that we have been experiencing just continues to roll on .
On Thursday , we learned that another 2.4 million Americans filed initial claims for unemployment benefits during the previous week , and that brings the grand total for this pandemic to a whopping 38.6 million .
To get an idea of just how badly this swamps what we witnessed during the last recession , take a look at this chart .
This is the biggest spike in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a very wide margin , and analysts are expecting another huge number once again next week .
After my father got out of the U.S. Navy , he worked as a math teacher for many years , and throughout my life I have always had a deep appreciation for numbers .
And in this case , the numbers are telling us that we are facing something truly horrific .
During the month of February , the number of Americans that were currently employed peaked at 152,463,000 .
If you take the 38.6 million @ @ @ @ @ @ @ during this crisis and divide it by 152,463,000 , you will find that it gives you a figure of more than 25 percent .
In other words , more than one out of every four jobs in the United States is already gone , and more job losses will be coming week after week .
And of course not everyone that loses a job actually files a claim for unemployment benefits .
So the true percentage of Americans that have lost a job would be even higher .
It had been hoped that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ once states began “ reopening ” their economies , but so far that is not really materializing .
For example , Georgia was one of the first states to begin lifting restrictions , but that state also “ now leads the country in terms of the proportion of its workforce applying for unemployment assistance ” … Georgia ’ s early move to start easing stay-at-home restrictions nearly a month ago has done little to stem the state ’ s flood of unemployment claims — illustrating how hard it is to bring jobs back @ @ @ @ @ @ @ outside .
Weekly applications for jobless benefits have remained so elevated that Georgia now leads the country in terms of the proportion of its workforce applying for unemployment assistance .

Even though most U.S. states have begun the process of “reopening” their economies, the unprecedented tsunami of job losses that we have been experiencing just continues to roll on. On Thursday, we learned that another 2.4 million Americans filed initial claims for unemployment benefits during the previous week, and that brings the grand total for this pandemic to a whopping 38.6 million. To get an idea of just how badly this swamps what we witnessed during the last recession, take a look at this chart. This is the biggest spike in unemployment in all of U.S. history by a very wide margin, and analysts are expecting another huge number once again next week.
After my father got out of the U.S. Navy, he worked as a math teacher for many years, and throughout my life I have always had a deep appreciation for numbers.

And of course not everyone that loses a job actually files a claim for unemployment benefits. So the true percentage of Americans that have lost a job would be even higher.
It had been hoped that the unemployment numbers would begin to normalize once states began “reopening” their economies, but so far that is not really materializing.
For example, Georgia was one of the first states to begin lifting restrictions, but that state also “now leads the country in terms of the proportion of its workforce applying for unemployment assistance”…
Georgia’s early move to start easing stay-at-home restrictions nearly a month ago has done little to stem the state’s flood of unemployment claims — illustrating how hard it is to bring jobs back while consumers are still afraid to go outside.
Weekly applications for jobless benefits have remained so elevated that Georgia now leads the country in terms of the proportion of its workforce applying for unemployment assistance. A staggering 40.3 percent of the state’s workers — two out of every five — has filed for unemployment insurance payments since the coronavirus pandemic led to widespread shutdowns in mid-March, a POLITICO review of Labor Department data shows.
Our politicians really didn’t understand what they were doing when they started locking down state after state. Coming into 2020, the U.S. economy was in an extremely fragile state and was already moving rapidly toward recession territory, and now fear of COVID-19 has burst all of our economic bubbles.
The U.S. economy is now in a death spiral, and a survey that was just conducted by the Census Bureau came up with some numbers that are simply eye-popping…
Nearly half of Americans say that either their incomes have declined or they live with another adult who has lost pay through a job loss or reduced hours, the Census Bureau said in survey data released Wednesday.
More than one-fifth of Americans said they had little or no confidence in their ability to pay the next month´s rent or mortgage on time, the survey found.
Already, we are beginning to see mortgage delinquencies rise to very alarming levels.
In fact, in April we witnessed the largest single month jump that has ever been recorded…
Mortgage delinquencies surged by 1.6 million in April, the largest single-month jump in history, according to a report from Black Knight, a mortgage technology and data provider. The data includes both homeowners past due on mortgage payments who aren’t in forbearance, along with those in forbearance plans and who didn’t make a mortgage payment in April.
At 6.45%, the national delinquency rate nearly doubled from 3.06% in March, the largest single-month increase recorded, and nearly three times the prior record for a single month during the height of the financial crisis in late 2008, Black Knight said.
Sadly, the truth is that this is only going to get worse.
The “enhanced unemployment benefits” that Congress recently passed have been helping many unemployed Americans to pay their mortgages, but now it appears that President Trump and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell do not intend to extend those benefits past the July deadline. They are concerned that those benefits have been so generous that they have been discouraging many Americans from going back to work, and they are quite right about that.
Unfortunately, it isn’t just homeowners that have been missing payments.
At this point, the entire commercial real estate industry is on the precipice of a meltdown as rent payments and mortgage payments are being “skipped” all over the nation on a widespread basis. On Thursday, we learned that even the owners of The Mall of America have been skipping their mortgage payments…
The biggest shopping center in the country, The Mall of America, has missed two months of payments on its $1.4 billion mortgage, a sign of just how much retail real estate owners are reeling during the coronavirus pandemic.
The mall, operated by private developers Triple Five Group, skipped mortgage payments in April and May, according to Trepp, a New York-based research firm that tracks the commercial mortgage-backed securities, or CMBS, market.
Unless Congress steps in and showers the entire commercial real estate industry with giant mountains of cash, I don’t see how an unprecedented meltdown can be averted.
It is going to be horrifying to watch, and it is going to absolutely dwarf anything that we witnessed in 2008.
Of course similar things can be said about the economy as a whole. At this point, Bank of America is projecting that U.S. GDP will fall 40 percent on an annualized basis during the second quarter of this year…
Now that banks have had a chance to evaluate the collapse in the economy in the post-covid world, a new round of GDP forecast revisions is coming, and it’s a doozy, with Bank of America spearheading the latest effort by slashing its Q2 GDP forecast from -30% to -40%.
Not without a trace of irony, BofA’s chief economist Michelle Meyer writes that “words cannot describe” the loss in economic output, which is “unlike anything we have seen in modern history.”
When Bank of America starts sounding like The Economic Collapse Blog, that is a clear sign that things are really starting to fall apart in a major way.
Now that restrictions are being lifted all over the nation, the number of confirmed COVID-19 cases is starting to rise again, and fear of this virus is going to paralyze economic activity for the foreseeable future.
And what most Americans still don’t understand is that what we have experienced so far is just the beginning…

The So-called “Georgia Home Visits” Represents the Newest Tyranny Sweeping America


revolutionradio--2020-05-23--Exclusive — Mike Pence: ‘Nobody Wants to Reopen This Country More than President Donald Trump’

News that he and President Donald Trump are excited to get the United States reopened and moving again as the coronavirus pandemic recedes nationwide .
Backstage after a roundtable with local business leaders here at Waffle House corporate headquarters , where Pence and Georgia Gov .
Brian Kemp appeared to encourage the continued reopening of the country , Pence told Breitbart News that Georgia ’ s efforts led by Kemp to reopen aggressively have been successful and are a model for the nation .
All 50 states have begun reopening in one way or another , Pence noted in the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ on SiriusXM 125 the Patriot Channel , citing Georgia and Florida—where Pence visited earlier in the week with Gov .
Ron DeSantis—as examples for the country .
“ It would be on April 15 , 30 days into the mitigation efforts that we presented to the country—that the president directed the White House Coronavirus Task Force to publish guidelines for opening up America , ” Pence said .
“ We believed because of what the American people were doing and continued to do over that 45 days that we would be in a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ around the country to begin to reopen and put America back to work .
Nobody wants to reopen this country more than President Donald Trump .
So we equipped governors around the country to be ready for when the 45 Days to Slow the Spread came to an end .
Georgia and Florida and other states around the country evaluated the cases in their state , evaluated the data , and have been and have taken steps that are now demonstrating that we can safely and responsibly reopen our economy without putting the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and wellbeing at risk .
I think Gov .
Kemp also and Gov .
DeSantis also recognize that this isn ’ t a choice between health and a growing economy .
It really is a choice between health and health .
There are serious health consequences if we were to continue indefinitely the lockdowns that we asked the American people to embrace for 45 days .
I must tell you , I know the president is as grateful as I am that as we sit here today , 50 states—all 50 states—have begun @ @ @ @ @ @ @ But Georgia is leading the way and demonstrating that you can safely and responsibly reopen your businesses , reopen your restaurants , and put the people of your state back to work , and still , hospitalizations are declining , cases are declining , and , most importantly , fatalities are declining .
The people of Georgia are doing it , and I couldn ’ t be more proud to be here.
” Asked if some Democrat governors , such as Michigan ’ s Gretchen Whitmer and Pennsylvania ’ s Tom Wolf , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ his close relationship with governors and noted that every state is ready to reopen .
He also praised the protesters nationwide pushing for a faster reopening of their states .
“ When the president tapped me to lead the White House Coronavirus Task Force , he directed me to forge a seamless partnership with governors around the country of both political parties .
We ’ ve done that , ” Pence said .
“ We continue to believe , whether it be on a statewide basis or a regional or county basis , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a position to begin the process of reopening .

News that he and President Donald Trump are excited to get the United States reopened and moving again as the coronavirus pandemic recedes nationwide.
Backstage after a roundtable with local business leaders here at Waffle House corporate headquarters, where Pence and Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp appeared to encourage the continued reopening of the country, Pence told Breitbart News that Georgia’s efforts led by Kemp to reopen aggressively have been successful and are a model for the nation. All 50 states have begun reopening in one way or another, Pence noted in the interview that aired on Breitbart News Saturday on SiriusXM 125 the Patriot Channel, citing Georgia and Florida—where Pence visited earlier in the week with Gov. Ron DeSantis—as examples for the country.
“It would be on April 15, 30 days into the mitigation efforts that we presented to the country—that the president directed the White House Coronavirus Task Force to publish guidelines for opening up America,” Pence said. “We believed because of what the American people were doing and continued to do over that 45 days that we would be in a position for some states and some counties around the country to begin to reopen and put America back to work. Nobody wants to reopen this country more than President Donald Trump. So we equipped governors around the country to be ready for when the 45 Days to Slow the Spread came to an end. Georgia and Florida and other states around the country evaluated the cases in their state, evaluated the data, and have been and have taken steps that are now demonstrating that we can safely and responsibly reopen our economy without putting the people of this country’s health and wellbeing at risk. I think Gov. Kemp also and Gov. DeSantis also recognize that this isn’t a choice between health and a growing economy. It really is a choice between health and health. There are serious health consequences if we were to continue indefinitely the lockdowns that we asked the American people to embrace for 45 days. I must tell you, I know the president is as grateful as I am that as we sit here today, 50 states—all 50 states—have begun the process of reopening their economies. But Georgia is leading the way and demonstrating that you can safely and responsibly reopen your businesses, reopen your restaurants, and put the people of your state back to work, and still, hospitalizations are declining, cases are declining, and, most importantly, fatalities are declining. The people of Georgia are doing it, and I couldn’t be more proud to be here.”
Asked if some Democrat governors, such as Michigan’s Gretchen Whitmer and Pennsylvania’s Tom Wolf, are moving fast enough, Pence cited his close relationship with governors and noted that every state is ready to reopen. He also praised the protesters nationwide pushing for a faster reopening of their states.
“When the president tapped me to lead the White House Coronavirus Task Force, he directed me to forge a seamless partnership with governors around the country of both political parties. We’ve done that,” Pence said. “We continue to believe, whether it be on a statewide basis or a regional or county basis, that every state in America is in a position to begin the process of reopening. Fortunately, as of this week, all 50 states have begun that process. What we’re committed to doing, whether it be providing supplies for testing, whether it be providing personal protective equipment not just for healthcare workers, but for businesses that are beginning the process of reopening, we’re absolutely committed to being a full partner with states. But the president and I truly believe we [have] got to get this country open again. There are profound costs that go well beyond the economy to a prolonged shutdown. I’ve always believed this was a freedom-loving country. I’m very heartened to see people across the country letting their voice be heard, letting governors in every state know they want their freedom back. What Georgia is demonstrating is people are prepared to continue practicing the hygiene and social distancing necessary to protect their families and their neighbors and members of their community. We’ll continue to urge every state to look at the president’s guidelines to open up America again and look for ways, whether it be a portion of a state or the entire state, to get the economy moving again.”
Pence, whom Trump appointed to lead the White House Coronavirus Task Force nearly three months ago, told Breitbart News that the country has learned a lot about the coronavirus since the beginning of this whole process as well.
“It’s been a learning process every day,” Pence said. “We knew early on that the coronavirus was several times more contagious than the common flu. But there’s been hopeful developments as well. We’ve seen that because of what the American people have done and the sacrifices they’ve made that, despite the fact we’re dramatically increasing testing, cases are still going down. Positivity rates are declining. Today, more than 40 states are finding that less than ten percent of the people who are tested test positive for the coronavirus—and 22 states, less than five percent of those tested are testing positive. So we’ve learned a great deal about the impact of social distancing.”
Pence also pointed to a Department of Homeland Security (DHS) scientific study that demonstrates the half-life of the virus drops off significantly with ultraviolet light, higher heat, and humidity. Such “summer conditions,” which are now here in most of the country, he said, will hopefully stop the spread of the virus even more.
“We also, the Department of Homeland Security, did a study we published a month ago that found that ultraviolet light—sunlight—and humidity, summer conditions, actually have a profound impact on reducing what’s called the half life of the virus and reducing its potential threat,” Pence said. “But, finally, I think what we’ve also learned is that this is primarily conveyed through respiratory habits. It’s the reason social distancing and hygiene continue to be important. The CDC issued guidance reiterating the threat of transmission on hard surfaces is significantly less than conveyed through respiration. So we’re understanding a great deal more about it, but I can tell you what I think we’ve learned the most is the American people will rise to any challenge when called upon to do so—when families that have put loved ones, especially the elderly’s health first, they make great sacrifices — businesses large and small. We heard today from some small businesses before they learned there was going to be any federal assistance went out and a business owner borrowed against his home so he could keep people on the payroll. I’m very proud of the CARES Act and I’m very proud through Paycheck Protection that we found a way to keep people on the payroll of businesses that were shuttered through the 45 Days to Slow the Spread and through the course of this pandemic, but businesses responded with great charity and great generosity, and I think we’ve learned a lot about the virus, but I think we’ve reaffirmed everything we always knew about the goodness and common sense of the American people.”

The number of suicides documented by a hospital in Northern California during the ongoing lockdown has exceeded the number of Chinese coronavirus deaths , doctors in the city of Walnut Creek revealed this week as they called for an end to the region ’ s lockdown order .
In an interview with the Los Angeles-based ABC7 news outlet aired on Thursday , doctors from the John Muir Medical Center in Walnut Creek stressed that there had been an unprecedented rise in suicides , noting that there have been more attempts over the last month than in most full years .

“ I have never seen so much intentional @ @ @ @ @ @ @ price and I know why we ’ ve done it , ” she also said .
“ It just has a bigger price tag than I thought.
” Hansen reportedly noted that the Walnut Creek hospital is unable to save as many patients as usual due to a near single-minded focus on coronavirus .
Other doctors , including the National Institutes of Health ( NIH ) Director Francis Collins , have acknowledged that there is a clear and present danger that lockdown measures may fuel mental health issues like suicide .

Contra Costa County ’ s Walnut Creek is in the eastern region of the San Francisco Bay area .
Dr. DeBoisblanc and Tom Tamura , the executive director of the Contra Costa County Crisis Center , noted that most of the suicides involve young adults who are “ worried about the stress that isolation and job loss can bring as this quarantine continues.

The number of suicides documented by a hospital in Northern California during the ongoing lockdown has exceeded the number of Chinese coronavirus deaths, doctors in the city of Walnut Creek revealed this week as they called for an end to the region’s lockdown order.
In an interview with the Los Angeles-based ABC7 news outlet aired on Thursday, doctors from the John Muir Medical Center in Walnut Creek stressed that there had been an unprecedented rise in suicides, noting that there have been more attempts over the last month than in most full years.
“We’ve never seen numbers like this, in such a short period of time,” Dr. Mike DeBoisblanc, the head of trauma at the Walnut Creek hospital, told the local ABC outlet. “I mean, we’ve seen a year’s worth of suicide attempts in the last four weeks.”
“What I have seen recently, I have never seen before,” Kacey Hansen, a trauma nurse at the medical center for over three decades, added. “I have never seen so much intentional injury.”
“Social isolation has a price and I know why we’ve done it,” she also said. “It just has a bigger price tag than I thought.”
Hansen reportedly noted that the Walnut Creek hospital is unable to save as many patients as usual due to a near single-minded focus on coronavirus.

After weeks of butting heads with the Trump administration over pandemic guidance, the US Centers for Disease Control (CDC) issued guidance on Friday for the reopening of religious institutions.
“Gathering together for worship is at the heart of many faith traditions,” reads a statement from the CDC.
“Because there are several published reports of COVID-19 outbreaks sparked by large gatherings, both non-religious and religious in nature, the recommendations released today will help guide faith communities while respecting their fundamental right to gather for worship.”
Recommendations include;
Encouraging staff and congregants to wash their hands with soap and water
Providing hand sanitizer
No-touch trash cans
Encouraging the use of cloth masks
“Suspending or at least decreasing use of a choir/musical ensembles and congregant singing, chanting, or reciting during services,”
Daily disinfection
Social distancing
Limiting the sharing of objects such as books and hymnals
Identify an area to quarantine people with COVID-19 symptoms
If someone in a congregation is diagnosed with COVID-19, perform contact tracing and inform anyone with exposure to the person to stay home and self-monitor
Close off any area used by a sick person and do not use until it has been disinfected – which should be performed at least 24 hours later.
Designate a staff member to handle COVID-19 concerns
The revised guidance comes after President Trump told a Michigan roundtable on Thursday “I said, ‘You better put it out,'” – one day before calling an impromptu press conference where he announced that places of worship would be deemed “essential,” and called for their reopening.
Trump said that he would “override” governors who keep places of worship closed.

The coronavirus pandemic, and resulting government response, has created one of the greatest disruptions to daily life in modern American history. With much of the country now focused on “reopening,” pundits and policymakers have focused their attention on what the “new normal” of a post-COVID America looks like. Although much of the attention has been focused on the future of massive public gatherings and changes to American work environments, the most significant change to American societies may be faith in our governing structures.
The policy response to the coronavirus has already led to dramatic changes to policy. In the positive, both federal agencies and state governments have waived or altered many traditional regulatory requirements to bypass disastrous delays in medical testing and to better facilitate delivery of services. In the negative, the Federal Reserve has massively escalated its interventionist policies, highlighting how radical these institutions have truly become.
Beyond specific policies, however, the most significant change may be the degree to which the COVID response changes the public view of centralized political power. In particular, there are three relatively unique aspects of this pandemic that may be the precursor to significant realignments going forward.
State Governments Have Taken the Lead in Public Policy
In spite of rhetoric from President Trump about the White House having “full authority” over state governments, the current administration has been largely content with allowing governors to lead the way in responding to the pandemic. This has led to significant differences in the severity of economic lockdowns, testing behavior, and even authorized treatments between states.
Given the hypertribalism of modern politics, it’s easy to simplify this into a typical “red state-blue state” division, but this overlooks significant differences in approach from governors and state legislatures within the same party. For example, although Michigan, New York, and California are high-profile examples of blue states with strong lockdown policies, Colorado is an example of a state with a Democratic governor who has largely followed the reopening guidance promoted by the Trump administration.
The significant differences in policy between states (such as New York and Florida) has meant greater attention, from both the press and the voters subjected to unprecedented restrictions, toward their state capitals and away from the usual circus of Washington. Many governors have seemed to relish this move, such as Governor Gavin Newsom of California, who proudly declared himself leader of a “nation-state.” The power of state governments has even led to some governors engaging in the sort of executive overreach that has become the norm in the national level, such as Colorado governor Jared Polis taking control of federal aid money against the wishes of the state legislature.
The stark contrast between state responses, coupled with differences in outcomes—both in terms of economic and public health measures—is an important lesson in the power of federalism that has been eroded in American politics.

You can not trust the mainstream media , but this isn ’ t news .
Every day , regular people are using their own cameras and cell phones to document the lies we are being told about COVID-19 designed to manufacture your consent to enslavement .
Here are just a few of the lies that have been uncovered .
Jeff Berwick of the Dollar Vigilant YouTube channel questioned the authenticity of a Sky News report claiming the crematoriums in Mexico City “ never stop burning.

You cannot trust the mainstream media, but this isn’t news. Every day, regular people are using their own cameras and cell phones to document the lies we are being told about COVID-19 designed to manufacture your consent to enslavement. Here are just a few of the lies that have been uncovered.
Jeff Berwick of the Dollar Vigilant YouTube channel questioned the authenticity of a Sky News report claiming the crematoriums in Mexico City “never stop burning.” Berwick took his camera around to the few open crematoriums and discover that was not just a lie, it was a completely fabricated hoax designed to make the scamdemic appear far more severe than it ever will be.
Additionally, 600 doctors have written a letter to President Donald Trump stating that he’s been given bad advice, and the lockdowns are going to kill many other people in numbers that will far surpass those of this coronavirus.
After David Icke was banned from YouTube for speaking out against the tyranny and power grabs of the elitists and politicians using the scamdemic as an excuse, he did a long interview with London Real on the “Freedom Platform” designed to never be censored.
As those in power continue to lie and attempt to keep us in a constant state of fear, people all over the planet are waking up to what’s actually going on. This has never been about health. It’s been a gigantic propagated lie from the beginning and designed that way.

Have you connected the dots yet? Fauci will profit heavily off of anyone who gets the vaccine.

Update (1300ET): As the outbreak in Iran wanes, Gulf States, including tiny Kuwait, are having a surprisingly hard time keeping the virus from spreading, despite strict curfews and mandatory mask laws. On Saturday, Kuwait recorded 900 new cases of the novel coronavirus, raising the country’s infection tally to 20,464, the Kuwaiti news agency KUNA reported. The Health Ministry also announced 10 more deaths from COVID-19, raising Kuwait’s death toll to 148. Meanwhile, not wearing a facemask is punishable by jail, or a fine up to $16k.
Meanwhile as the number of new cases in Italy ticked higher, the government is weighing whether the next phase in Italy’s relaxation of emergency measures may proceed at different speeds in various zones, with some northern areas temporarily excluded from a reopening.

We begin what looks to be a dreary Memorial Day Weekend with a new study amplified by the Washington Post claiming that roughly half of US states actually remain at risk for a serious rebound, as critics seize on the jump in new cases seen in Texas as justification that the state re-opened too early, even as the measures remain broadly popular within the state.
Georgia, too, has largely avoided the disastrous consequences promised by Dr. Fauci and many of the doctors and scientists regularly appearing as ‘independent analysts’ on MSNBC and CNN (while the doctors and scientists on Fox News largely praised what has turned out to be a winning political gamble by Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp.
A new model produced by researchers at Imperial College London estimated that the “R” figure – an estimate of the rate at which the virus is spreading in a given county or state – is above 1 (meaning the virus is still expanding) in 24 states. As some might remember, Imperial College’s models have already been proven to be flawed (not just incorrect, but critics have taken issue with certain parameters they argued were unrealistic).
Even WaPo acknowledges that the risk of a second wave of infections projected by the model fails to factor in social distancing, the wearing of masks, and other factors that might impact the spread of the virus. As Nicolas Kristof said earlier this week, “epidemiology is full of puzzles”.

…that for the first time since March, his state has reported fewer than 100 virus-linked deaths, with 84 confirmed over the last 24 hours. That’s compared with 109 yesterday, as hospitalizations and ICU admissions also continued to decline.
“It’s a sign we’re making real progress and I feel good about that,” Mr Cuomo said, adding that earlier in the crisis a doctor had told him “if you can get under 100, I think you can breathe a sigh of relief.”

Two weeks ago, when showing the uncanny correlation between defaults and the unemployment rates, we predicted that the number of Chapter 11 filings that is about to flood the US will be nothing short of biblical.
All that was missing was a catalyst… and according to Bloomberg that catalyst arrived in the past week or so, as retail landlords have been sending out thousands of default notices to tenants, who in turn have experienced a collapse in foot traffic, sales and cash flow due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and are simply unable to pay their debt obligations.
According to Bloomberg, restaurants, department stores, apparel merchants and specialty chains have been receiving notices from landlords – some of whom have gone as long as three months without receiving rent.
“The default letters from landlords are flying out the door,” said Andy Graiser, co-president of commercial real estate company, A&G Real Estate Partners. “It’s creating a real fear in the marketplace.”
Pressure from default notices and follow-up actions like locking up stores or terminating leases was cited in the bankruptcies of Modell’s Sporting Goods and Stage Stores Inc. Many chains stopped paying rent after the pandemic shuttered most U.S. stores, gambling that they could hold on to some cash before landlords demanded payment.
The stakes are enormous, and landlords are suffering, too. An estimated $7.4 billion in rent for April hasn’t been paid, or about 45% of what’s owed, according to a recent analysis by CoStar Group, which also found that just a quarter of of expected rent payments have been received by landlords.
