veteranstoday--2020-08-11--Beirut, Govt Resigns. Israeli ex MP: “A blast as a nuclear bomb, I hope it was Us” (update)

Lebanon ’ s government resigned Monday as the fallout from last week ’ s deadly explosion deepened a political crisis in the country ’ s blast-ravaged capital .
Prime Minister Hassan Diab said he would resign along with all of his ministers .
“ We will back down and stand with the people .
We need to open the door for the people , ” he said in an address to the nation .
The Masonic-Zionist Deep International State has once again won in tormented Lebanon .
The street uprising of a few thousand guerrillas , skilfully piloted by Canvas @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is destabilizing the country as it did in the 2005 Cedar Revolution before the subsequent blitzkrieg unleashed by Israel in 2006 .
The protests had already provoked in 2019 the fall of the previous government of vast alliances between Shia Muslims , Sunnis and Maronite Christians of Prime Minister Saad Hariri , son of Rafīq al-Ḥarīrī , killed in an attack on the seafront of Beirut on February 14 , 2005 together with 22 other people .

In this contrasting approach , we can measure the will of the Islamic exponent to sooth public emotion after the street riots that broke out in Beirut due to the outbreak of an ammonium nitrate deposit , which some believe was triggered by an external attack .
While former Israeli parliamentarian Moshe Feiglin posted on Facebook that he thanked God that the deadly blast took place in Beirut , and claimed @ @ @ @ @ @ @ B ’ Av , a festival of love which has become a romantic Jewish holiday for dancing , handing out flowers and singing .

The former parliamentarian made even heavier allusions in an interview with a local radio , where he spoke of a nuclear bomb and a possible Israeli responsibility , among the hypotheses circulating about the mysterious and terrible massacre .

UPDATE ON 11 AUGUST
Lebanon’s government resigned Monday as the fallout from last week’s deadly explosion deepened a political crisis in the country’s blast-ravaged capital.
Prime Minister Hassan Diab said he would resign along with all of his ministers. “We will back down and stand with the people. We need to open the door for the people,” he said in an address to the nation.
The Masonic-Zionist Deep International State has once again won in tormented Lebanon.
The street uprising of a few thousand guerrillas, skilfully piloted by Canvas, a self-styled CIA-backed anti-violence center, is destabilizing the country as it did in the 2005 Cedar Revolution before the subsequent blitzkrieg unleashed by Israel in 2006.
The protests had already provoked in 2019 the fall of the previous government of vast alliances between Shia Muslims, Sunnis and Maronite Christians of Prime Minister Saad Hariri, son of Rafīq al-Ḥarīrī, killed in an attack on the seafront of Beirut on February 14, 2005 together with 22 other people.

This takes place in the context of continuous provocations that are covertly orchestrated by extremist Sunnis, like the Wahabis of Saudi Arabia, historical allies of Israel.
POSTED ON 9 AUGUST 2020
by Fabio Giuseppe Carlo Carisio for VT Mediterranean
While the spiritual leader of Shia Muslims in Lebanon, Hezbollah Secretary General Sayyed Hasan Nasrallah preaches unity among religious confessions, a former member of the Knesset (Israel’s one-chamber parliament) thanks God for the explosion that devastated Beirut, leaving a provisional toll of 158 deaths.
In this contrasting approach, we can measure the will of the Islamic exponent to sooth public emotion after the street riots that broke out in Beirut due to the outbreak of an ammonium nitrate deposit, which some believe was triggered by an external attack.
While former Israeli parliamentarian Moshe Feiglin posted on Facebook that he thanked God that the deadly blast took place in Beirut, and claimed it was just in time for Tu B’Av, a festival of love which has become a romantic Jewish holiday for dancing, handing out flowers and singing. The media MEMO (Middle East Monitor) reported.
«Today is Tu B’Av, a day of joy, and a true and huge thank you to G-d and all the geniuses and heroes really (!) who organized for us this wonderful celebration in honor of the day of love» wrote Feiglin, leader of the libertarian Zionist party Zehut, and former member of Likud, the party of Benjamin Netanyahu, which he represented in the Knesset between 2013 and 2015.
The former parliamentarian made even heavier allusions in an interview with a local radio, where he spoke of a nuclear bomb and a possible Israeli responsibility, among the hypotheses circulating about the mysterious and terrible massacre.
«You don’t really believe that this was some messy fuel warehouse, yeah? Do you understand that this hell was supposed to fall on us as a rain of missiles?! I have some experience with explosives. The largest explosion I took part in was 2.5 tons of TNT» said the former Israeli parliamentarian as reported by MEMO.
What we saw yesterday at the Port of Beirut was much bigger. The destructive effect (without the radiation) was like a nuclear bomb – added Feiglin – If it was us, and I hope it was us, then we should be proud of it, and with that we will create a balance of terror. By avoiding saying it’s us. We are putting ourselves on the dark side of morality. We are all allowed to rejoice that it exploded in the port of Beirut and not in Tel Aviv».
The statements of the leader of Hezbollah are of the opposite tenor.
«We are before a major humanitarian and national catastrophe at all levels» Sayyed Hasan Nasrallah, a legendary figure in Lebanon because he is believed to be a descendant of Muhammad, said in a televised speech on Friday, after expressing condolences to the relatives of the victims and hoping for a speedy recovery of the wounded and the discovery of the numerous missing.
«There are more than 150 martyrs; the majority of them are Lebanese, with a remarkable number of Syrians and national from of different countries» the explosion hit the port of Beirut right in the area of some foreign embassies, severely affecting the Syrian and Australian embassies.
Hezbollah is now a ruling party in Lebanon in support of the Shiite premier Hassan Diab, who is also supported by the majority Shiite party Amal and the block Christian of the Free Patriots Movement, led by the former Foreign Minister Gebran Bassil, which also includes the President of the Republic Michel Aoun, a former army general.
PILOTED RIOTS IN BEIRUT
Aoun himself ended up in the crosshairs of the rioters who, since October 2019, have been contesting unidentified episodes of corruption (certainly much less serious than those that emerged in Italy with the PalamaraGate which uncovered plots between magistrates and politicians without a single arrest) and the ongoing economic crisis.
As highlighted in other articles on the protests piloted by CANVAS and western secret services, the financial collapse of the country was actually caused as in Venezuela by the US sanctions against Lebanese banks considered to be financing Hezbollah, which Washington claims is a terrorist organization because of its alliance with the Shiite Pasdaran of Iran.
«Beirut blast has been completely obliterated. This would cause major economic losses. This explosion affected all the Lebanese with all their sectarian affiliations. Beirut is city of all the Lebanese and represents all segments of Lebanese society. We must express sympathy, love and solidarity with each other» Nasrallah added, as reported by the Lebanese media Al Manar.
Nasrallah hailed the stances taken and relief aids sent by the Arab and foreign governments as well as resistance movements to support Lebanon, despite the siege imposed by the United States, and pointed out that Hezbollah views the visit of the French President positively, as it comes in the context of helping and uniting the Lebanese.
«We wish US imposed its siege just on Hezbollah, not on all the Lebanese» he said.
But yesterday, on the “Saturday of anger” a few hundred rioters skilfully trained in urban warfare like those of the 2005 Cedar Revolution that still boasts by CANVAS (the self-styled anti-violence center in Belgrade financed by the American counter-intelligence of the Central Intelligence Agency), Hezbollah, Aoun and Prime Minister Diab were targeted with violent protests.
In the predominantly Christian neighborhood of Achrafieh, a large group of demonstrators – including many army veterans – occupied the historic Bustros building, home to the Foreign Ministry, and immediately proclaimed it as the headquarters of the rioters.
On the facade of the building, which had been damaged in the explosion on Tuesday, large red banners depicting the clenched fist with the words “Beirut capital of the revolution” were spread. The army then freed the seat believed to be the symbol of President Aoun.
Lebanese police arrested 20 people. Among the agents, according to a statement quoted by the site of the newspaper L’Orient le Jour, there are 70 injured, but one of them would later die. Last night the Lebanese Red Cross had provided a total toll of 238 wounded, of which 63 were hospitalized and 175 treated on the spot.
HEZBOLLAH DENY AMMUNITION IN THE PORT
Amid calls for early elections, premier Hassan Diab assured in a speech to the nation that, “The massacre in the port of Beirut will not go unpunished.”
“All those responsible for the port will be investigated,” he added. Diab called on political parties to resolve the country’s crisis in two months, otherwise there will be early elections. Lebanese Information Minister, Manal Abdul Samad, announced his resignation today, according to Lebanese media.
Protesters pointed the finger at Hezbollah for the ammonium nitrate storage warehouse from which the fatal explosion would have started, although as reported by Gospa News, multiple other military sources claim that there have been more triggers due to bombs or missiles.
«Just after the explosion, some local and Arab TV channels as well as social media pages adopted an alleged scenario which claims that Beirut port’s warehouse which exploded contained missiles or ammunition for Hezbollah. Although official sources denied the presence of missiles in the port and confirmed that nitrate is used for agricultural and industrial purposes, they (local and Arab TV channels) insisted that the ammonium nitrate had been stored by Hezbollah for 6 years in order to blame the party for the explosion – highlighted Nasrallah – I categorically deny the claim that Hezbollah has arms cache, ammunition or anything else in the port.»
President Aoun had previously stated that all hypotheses were possible: the accident but also a bomb or a missile for an external attack.
Sayyed Nasrallah stressed that Hezbollah neither runs the Beirut port nor does it interfere in its administration, adding that the Resistance knows more about the Haifa Port in Occupied Palestine than the Beirut Port.
«As a Resistance, it’s our duty to know what’s going on in Haifa Port, but not Beirut Port».
RALLY IN JERUSALEM AGAINST NETANYAHU
While the demonstrations in Lebanon have come under the attention of the Western media, only Russia Today has highlighted the protests in Israel.
«Footage shows officers dragging away demonstrators outside Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s residence. Several people were detained in Jerusalem after a thousands-strong rally.
A clip from RT’s Ruptly video agency shows scuffles between activists and police officers on Sunday as they attempt to disrupt a sit-in at the Israeli PM’s official residence in central Jerusalem, that has been become the focus of frequent anti-government demonstrations» wrote Russia Today.
After midnight, police demanded demonstrators to disperse, then started to remove by force those who refused to leave. According to The Times of Israel, at least three people were detained for “disturbing public order and attacking officers.”
Demonstrations have been taking place across Israel for the past several weeks – the largest protests since 2011 – over the corruption charges against Netanyahu and what critics perceive as his government’s poor handling of the coronavirus crisis.

In VT’s article Pentagon/Esper: ‘Beirut May be an Attack…we made a mistake’, we now are beginning to see the Trump government collapse over attempts to cover up the truth about what REALLY happened on Beirut along with its own…INTELLIGENCE that they’ve gathered on the matter.
What follows now is an exchange between a good friend of ours from Athens with a church official in Beirut who, along with other residents who live within close proximity of the blast site, witnessed the following…
“My dear brother, I was in the church during the time of the explosion praying. The doors and windows were all closed. The number of parishioners was few, but the psalters sang loud. I first heard the sound of two small explosions after which the sound of a launching of a missile went off.

Ο αριθμός των πιστών ήταν λίγοι, αλλά η φωνή των ψαλτών ήταν δυνατή. Άκουσα τον ήχο δύο μικρών εκρήξεων, μετά τις οποίες εκτοξεύτηκε ο ήχος ενός πυραύλου, και μετά από πολύ σύντομο χρονικό διάστημα, που δεν ξεπερνούσε τα τρία δευτερόλεπτα, έως ότου το έδαφος κούνησε μεγάλο και η εκρηκτική καταιγίδα έβγαλε τις πόρτες και τα παράθυρα και τα πέταξε μέσα στην εκκλησία και το γυαλί απλώθηκε σε όλη την εκκλησία, αλλά η γυναίκα μου στο σπίτι άκουσε τον ήχο των αεροπλάνων και τις δυνατές φωνές τους, και ο Λίβανος δεν τον έχει Τα πολεμικά αεροπλάνα εγκατέλειψαν την εκκλησία και κατευθύνθηκαν προς το σπίτι μου κοντά στην εκκλησία, και ο δρόμος ήταν καλυμμένος με θρυμματισμένο γυαλί και την ώρα μερικών από τους τοίχους του μπαλκονιού, και όλοι οι κάτοικοι βγήκαν από τα κτίρια στους δρόμους, ή συγκεντρώθηκαν μέσα στην είσοδο των κτιρίων και φοβόντουσαν, χωρίς να γνωρίζουν τι συνέβη, ειλικρινά, είπα εκείνη τη στιγμή. Ένας μεγάλος πύραυλος εξερράγη κοντά, γνωρίζοντας ότι η εκκλησία μου και το σπίτι μου απέχουν περίπου 5 χλμ. Από την έκρηξη, σύμφωνα με την εκτίμησή μου.
Ζούμε ακόμα υπό σοκ, η υγεία της άρρωστης γυναίκας μου έχει επιδεινωθεί πολύ και επηρεάστηκε πολύ από την έκρηξη και ήταν μόνη στο σπίτι, καθώς η έκρηξη την έριξε αρκετά μέτρα και το σπασμένο γυαλί γέμισε ολόκληρο το σπίτι.

Not only does it reveal this technical detail that supports the thesis of a missile with a small nuclear charge dropped on the port of the Lebanese city that has made more than 130 dead, 5 thousand injured and 300 thousand displaced. But he adds other details that corroborate the thesis of the military attack that was carried out with a malice, precision and skill so refined as to make Mossad, the Israeli counterintelligence, the number one suspect.
On the Beirut disaster, Lebanese President Michel Aoun supports this possibility, even with all the caution that diplomacy requires.
As reported by the Lebanese broadcaster MTV, the Lebanese head of state said that «the cause of the explosions has not yet been determined, since there is a possibility that external interference has been produced through a missile, a bomb, or any other action».
Lebanese President Michel Aoun at the scene of the disaster (center with mask)
«A statement of extreme relevance, given that Aoun himself confirmed that during the meeting with Emmanuel Macron, he asked France to provide Lebanon with aerial images of the explosion. “If they do not have them, we will ask other countries to determine if it was an external attack”, concluded the Christian leader, once again making clear Beirut’s desire not to stop with an unnecessary investigation» writes a report by InsideOver, the Italian and English geopolitical site of the newspaper Il Giornale.
So far all the media, especially in Europe, have accused Hezbollah for keeping the approximately 2,750 tons of ammonium nitrate seized a few years ago in a foreign freighter in a warehouse in the center of a city.
But those who do it do not really know the economic situation of Lebanon, devastated by the US sanctions issued for no reason, only because Hezbollah is allied with the Pasdaran, the Guards of the Islamic Revolution of Iran, and undermined by continuous insurrections that appear to be piloted by CANVAS, the self-styled anti-biolence center, which was actually used by the American counterintelligence of the CIA (Central Intelligence Agency) for the bloody coups in Lebanon (Revolution of the Cedar, 2005), in Georgia (Revolution of the Roses, 2003) and in Ukraine (Revolution orange, 2004 and then 2014) which the same organization boasts on its official website.
In such context it is not easy to transport and secure so much explosive material that, moreover, in a port it is easy to transport abroad for Hezbollah which, it should not be forgotten, despite being a paramilitary organization declared terrorist by the US, has given a fundamental contribution to the Syrian president Bashar Al Assad in defeating ISIS, as they are of Shiite Muslim confession like the government of Damascus and therefore are enemies of the Islamic extremist Sunni Salafist terrorists.
It is therefore evident that in the hypothesis of a missile attack, some Lebanese have betrayed their homeland, enticed by the very generous engagements of the Israeli Mossad. There is in fact another detail in the dynamics of the explosion always highlighted by our military source.
«When an explosion occurs in a deposit of flammable material, there is a “trigger for sympathy”» he explains. It is a domino effect. Each explosive charge ignites another in just a few seconds so as to produce a single explosion.
Why in Beirut did a fire break out first, and only after the explosive explosion with a thermal effect following the ignition and then a mechanical effect, the one that devastated buildings for kilometers?
The explanation can only be the one already supported by Gospa News on the basis of the intelligence revelations reported by VT: two missiles.
The first may have been launched outside the warehouse to cause the bang, the fire and the first giant cloud of smoke. The second was thrown into the warehouse to create the disaster. Because? To enable the whole world to make videos.
If there had been a single gigantic explosion, there would have been no time to film the explosion and therefore the terrorist effect would not have been effective. This is similar to what happened for the “planes” against the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center, as they served to draw the attention of the whole world to the disaster so that we could witness the explosion triggered by micro nuclear charges, as the military experts of VT claim, and lawyers for the victims.
Too bad that the West is so entangled with the Lobby of the Weapons of the Zionists (descendants of the Ashkenazi and not of the Israelites, as we have repeatedly written) that it cannot afford to make a serious investigation into their criminal acts. Therefore Lebanon will be left alone like Syria and Sri Lanka after the Easter 2019 attacks. So goes this evil world.

That said , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ one could agree with Ivanka ’ s suggestion that people looking for college as a place to hide from unemployment while they bury themselves in dept that they might never be able to pay , they should give that some serious thought before jumping in .

In this new set of circumstances , one must hang on to all the cash cushion one can , cut expenditures to the bone , and look for income producing work at the lowest investment in time and money .
The last thing they need to do is make a bad situation worse by gambling on finding an easy way out .
As for Ivanka and Jared , they @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ’ s presidency for every dollar they could and will now have to wear that robe for the rest of their lives , including their father who might be spending his 70 ’ s behind bars , which would be rough duty for his Secret Service agents… Jim W.

Thanks for helping .
Click to donate > > When I read this week that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ need to eat cake , I ’ ll admit still being surprised by the Trump White House .
According to the reports , Ivanka told the country ’ s laid-off workers to consider alternative career paths because their old jobs won ’ t be coming back .
For those of you in disbelief like I am , Ivanka Trump has unveiled a new jobs initiative titled “ Find Something New ” .
She revealed her genius plan to make America even greater , at a virtual roundtable with IBM executive chairman Ginni Rometty @ @ @ @ @ @ @ during which she and her technocrat fellows suggested Americans stop going to college too .
No , I am not joking .
Yahoo !
News reported the gist of Princess Ivanka ’ s insanity with the acknowledging that : “ …jobs are changing and the pandemic has accelerated the pace , ” the program encourages workers to consider a range of careers , including those that don ’ t require a college degree.
” King Trump ’ s little princess is also taking heat for pimping Goya Beans on Instagram at a time @ @ @ @ @ @ @ over their CEO applauding King Trump .
Goya , which is America ’ s monarch followed Princess Ivanka ’ s lead and posed on Instagram with a whole spread of Goya products .
The royal family seems to be thumbing their noses at the American people and federal regulators who have taken notice of the obvious federal ethics violations .
Not even our fuzzy-headed emperor can promote beans and other products like this .
Goya ’ s CEO , Robert Unanue , is a huge fan of King Trump .
The billionaire ’ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in the Hispanic community when he told a press conference that the country is “ truly blessed… to have a leader like President Trump.
” King Trump named Princess Ivanka as his advisor in charge of such things as education initiatives , the economic empowerment of women and their families , and “ job creation and economic growth through workforce development , skills training , and entrepreneurship.
” There was a brief space in time when even King Trump ’ s most ardent enemies seemed ready to praise Princess Ivanka as she pulled @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
But even if the fair princess had every good intention , her dark prince Jared would certainly overshadow or trample the good right out of her .
Jared Kushner , the slum lord anxious to evict tenement residents who could not pay during a pandemic , he ’ s the one in charge of that bothersome coronavirus case data King Trump ’ s been pestered by .
As the US state of Florida was passing almost every country in the world with new cases , America ’ s ruler waved a mighty @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Control ( CDC ) out of the information and medical equations .
Then Trump ordered hospital data diverted through the White House instead of the CDC in Atlanta .
Since Prince Jared was ordained to take a pivotal role with the coronavirus task force , it seems logical to assume he ’ ll be the one sifting through the COVID-19 deaths and so forth , to let Trump ’ s subjects know the “ real ” score on the crisis .
Just the other day Prince Jared called the Trump dynasty ’ s @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ” The genius prince predicted back in April that by now the American Kingdom would be buzzing once again with jobs , prosperity , and economic justice for all .
Meanwhile , Robert Kaplan , the president of the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas , was quoted the other day saying ; “ …the surge in infections and hospitalizations was having a “ chilling effect ” on the economy.
” With many states on the brink of going back into a lockdown situation , King Trump is on pace to meet the fate @ @ @ @ @ @ @ t turn about quickly .
Just about all that is missing is for Queen Melania to quip ; “ Let them eat cake , ” about the time unemployment benefits start to run out for the 30 million jobless people Princess Ivanka told to “ start hunting ” for work .
I guess the King ’ s top adviser knows better than anyone , just how bad the news is about to be .
I ’ ll leave you serfs and peons with a footnote on our liege ’ s rule so far @ @ @ @ @ @ @ unemployed workers due to COVID-19 has been far greater than the increase due to the Great Recession .
A new surge , the second lockdown in Florida , Texas , and California closing back down will probably cause a freefall of jobs and markets , not to mention further civil unrest .
The kingdom is on the verge when all is said and done .
Princess Ivanka ’ s “ Find Something New ” program may just become revolutionary , really revolutionary .
Phil Butler , is a policy investigator and analyst , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Europe , he ’ s an author of the recent bestseller “ Putin ’ s Praetorians ” and other books .
He writes exclusively for the online magazine “ New Eastern Outlook .

That said, and the critic that I am, one could agree with Ivanka’s suggestion that people looking for college as a place to hide from unemployment while they bury themselves in debt that they might never be able to pay, they should give that some serious thought before jumping in.
The starting place for them is to research the public statistics on college debt and the lack of jobs in fields they might be considering.
Parents once considered that spending their savings down to put their kids through college was an investment in having someone to take care of them in old age, but now have to see the possibility that the kids may have their hands full keeping a roof over their own heads.
In this new set of circumstances, one must hang on to all the cash cushion one can, cut expenditures to the bone, and look for income producing work at the lowest investment in time and money. The last thing they need to do is make a bad situation worse by gambling on finding an easy way out.
As for Ivanka and Jared, they made a choice to milk their father’s presidency for every dollar they could and will now have to wear that robe for the rest of their lives, including their father who might be spending his 70’s behind bars, which would be rough duty for his Secret Service agents… Jim W.

– First published … August 07, 2020 –
When I read this week that Princess Ivanka Trump telling American workers they need to eat cake, I’ll admit still being surprised by the Trump White House. According to the reports, Ivanka told the country’s laid-off workers to consider alternative career paths because their old jobs won’t be coming back.
For those of you in disbelief like I am, Ivanka Trump has unveiled a new jobs initiative titled “Find Something New”. She revealed her genius plan to make America even greater, at a virtual roundtable with IBM executive chairman Ginni Rometty, and Apple CEO Tim Cook, during which she and her technocrat fellows suggested Americans stop going to college too.
No, I am not joking. Yahoo! News reported the gist of Princess Ivanka’s insanity with the acknowledging that:
“…jobs are changing and the pandemic has accelerated the pace,” the program encourages workers to consider a range of careers, including those that don’t require a college degree.”
King Trump’s little princess is also taking heat for pimping Goya Beans on Instagram at a time when the company was facing a boycott over their CEO applauding King Trump. Goya, which is America’s monarch followed Princess Ivanka’s lead and posed on Instagram with a whole spread of Goya products.
The royal family seems to be thumbing their noses at the American people and federal regulators who have taken notice of the obvious federal ethics violations. Not even our fuzzy-headed emperor can promote beans and other products like this.
Goya’s CEO, Robert Unanue, is a huge fan of King Trump. The billionaire’s praise of Trump caused an uproar in the Hispanic community when he told a press conference that the country is “truly blessed… to have a leader like President Trump.”
King Trump named Princess Ivanka as his advisor in charge of such things as education initiatives, the economic empowerment of women and their families, and “job creation and economic growth through workforce development, skills training, and entrepreneurship.”
There was a brief space in time when even King Trump’s most ardent enemies seemed ready to praise Princess Ivanka as she pulled off the women’s empowerment thing. But even if the fair princess had every good intention, her dark prince Jared would certainly overshadow or trample the good right out of her.
Jared Kushner, the slum lord anxious to evict tenement residents who could not pay during a pandemic, he’s the one in charge of that bothersome coronavirus case data King Trump’s been pestered by.
As the US state of Florida was passing almost every country in the world with new cases, America’s ruler waved a mighty hand to take the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) out of the information and medical equations.
Then Trump ordered hospital data diverted through the White House instead of the CDC in Atlanta. Since Prince Jared was ordained to take a pivotal role with the coronavirus task force, it seems logical to assume he’ll be the one sifting through the COVID-19 deaths and so forth, to let Trump’s subjects know the “real” score on the crisis. Just the other day Prince Jared called the Trump dynasty’s coronavirus effort a “brilliant success story.”
The genius prince predicted back in April that by now the American Kingdom would be buzzing once again with jobs, prosperity, and economic justice for all. Meanwhile, Robert Kaplan, the president of the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas, was quoted the other day saying; “…the surge in infections and hospitalizations was having a “chilling effect” on the economy.”
With many states on the brink of going back into a lockdown situation, King Trump is on pace to meet the fate of Louis XVI if things don’t turn about quickly. Just about all that is missing is for Queen Melania to quip; “Let them eat cake,” about the time unemployment benefits start to run out for the 30 million jobless people Princess Ivanka told to “start hunting” for work. I guess the King’s top adviser knows better than anyone, just how bad the news is about to be.
I’ll leave you serfs and peons with a footnote on our liege’s rule so far. The rise in the number of unemployed workers due to COVID-19 has been far greater than the increase due to the Great Recession.
A new surge, the second lockdown in Florida, Texas, and California closing back down will probably cause a freefall of jobs and markets, not to mention further civil unrest. The kingdom is on the verge when all is said and done. Princess Ivanka’s “Find Something New” program may just become revolutionary, really revolutionary.
