Earlier today President Trump and Defense Secretary Esper announced a major deployment of U.S. military to interdict narcotics trafficking from Central America.
On the surface the effort to deploy naval assets to the Caribbean and southern pacific is justified based on intelligence drug cartels will exploit the coronavirus pandemic to ship more narcotics into the U.S.
However, in the bigger picture there’s also a likelihood the CCP would work with their allies in Central American regimes to further weaken the U.S. during a time of increased vulnerability.
In times of war, or severe geopolitical confrontation, exploiting a vulnerability is a common strategy. Therefore it’s a smart and prudent geopolitical move for President Trump and U.S. military to take very aggressive action against the cartels and their communist sympathizers. There’s more going on here than appears on the surface.
.
Admitted or not we are at war with the Red Dragon. Chairman Xi is cunning and strategic; President Trump is countering. Keep watching…

Would you live behind the wall? The democrat-socialist vision of Utopia? The end result from years of communal indoctrination? The Walls of governmental safety? Where would you want to live? It’s been almost a decade since we first asked the question.
You might not have to make the choice, but progressive-socialists are ensuring your children or grandchildren are going to have to decide…. Where is the best hope for their dreams, inside the walls or outside? How will liberty and freedom be defined, and considering the direction, where will it be located in the future? Think about it…..
Where would you choose?
Where will your grandchildren choose?
Behind the wall you could live ten years longer. Does it matter?

Now, pause for a moment – reread that again – don’t skip past it. Think about what type of mindset would send such a letter and communication. Apply common sense. Trust your instincts…
Would a person of reasonable disposition send such a letter or email to anyone in their professional network? Would you ever consider writing a letter to your employer, or the family of your employer, declaring your undying love and devotion toward them?
“rarely does a speech bring me to tears”?… “please tell her I love her more than ever”?.. “please tell her that we all love her”… etc.
Seriously…. think about it. If you have ever engaged in a large system, large business, or large network of professionals, how would you react to a person inside that organization who was sending such non-professional communication? What exactly does that say about the emotional stability of such a person?
Would you ever consider writing such a letter to your wife or husband’s boss; or your bosses wife or husband?…. Why not?
Yet, this person, right now, with this inherent sensibility, has the most consequential and direct influence over the decision-making within the worlds’ most powerful nation.

The always political Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer sent a letter to President Trump today saying it was “long past the time” to name a senior military officer to lead the supply-chain effort.
Senator Schumer was attempting to construct a political narrative around the administration not taking action to secure U.S. supply needs combating COVID-19.
The letter was/is ridiculous; and built upon an entirely false premise; because Admiral John Polowczyk is already in that supply-chain procurement and distribution position working closely with Peter Navarro after the invocation of the Defense Production Act.
Replying to the ridiculous Schumer letter, President Trump calls out his stupidity:
This letter follows a tweet earlier in the day calling out Chuck Schumer for being a political idiot.


theconservativetreehouse--2020-04-02--Vermont Decrees Home Farming “Non Essential”, Forbids The Selling of Seeds…

Comrades , the administrative state will take care of all your food needs .
There is no reason to be self-sufficient in the production of food products .
As a result Vermont has designated the selling of seeds as “ non-essential ” and blocked from purchase : It is more than a little alarming to see state officials now beginning to drill down into products that stores will be permitted to sell , or not sell , within businesses that are permitted to remain open during the COVID-19 mitigation effort .
Interestingly Vermont is the home state for Comrade Bernie @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of president , and is a self-described socialist with favorable opinion toward Comrade Fidel Castro of Cuba .
Amid all of the control efforts by various totalitarian state officials , this connection does not seem accidental .
Roping-off sections of products , and banning the sale of specific and designated products within businesses that are operating contingent to the approval of the state authority , takes the control function of government to an entirely new level .
We The People , perhaps as a group who have taken some basic precepts of freedom @ @ @ @ @ @ @ wise to look at what is taking place within the big picture .
Various government officials and interests of the state are taking advantage of the current crisis to test how far they can pull the levers of control .
Perhaps you do not garden ; perhaps you never purchase seeds ; perhaps you do not grow your own food ; that ’ s not really the issue here… .
stopping your ability to do so should alarm everyone .
First they told you not to leave home except for essential services .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ are ; and in doing so they define and limit access to products , thereby controlling your behavior to permit only those activities approved by the state .
Freedom is a tenuous proposition ; take nothing for granted .

theconservativetreehouse--2020-04-03--More Dr. Fauci Nonsense: Social Distancing (Lock-down) Will Continue Until New Coronavirus Cases Cea

More Dr. Fauci Nonsense: Social Distancing (Lock-down) Will Continue Until New Coronavirus Cases Cease….

CTH noted yesterday that Dr. Fauci was once again talking nonsense on a level that is almost incredible ; but we needed to see it in the official transcript to be certain .
During the coronavirus briefing on Wednesday April 1st , Dr. Fauci stated -and no media challenged him- that CDC guidelines for “ stay-at-home ” directives would remain in place until all new cases ceased , & deaths were no longer happening .
This could take years .
[ Transcript ( emphasis mine ) ] – Q Thanks , Mr. President .
A question for Dr. Fauci .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ on the other side of this curve , are we looking at living with some sort of social distancing guidelines essentially until there ’ s treatment or a vaccine ?
For example , people looking forward to the summer talk about , you know , going to baseball games , going to concerts .
We have political conventions over the summer .
Are things like that possible or safe without a vaccine or a treatment in place ?
DR. FAUCI : Yeah , I think if we get to the part of the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it goes down to essentially no new cases , no deaths at a period of time , I think it makes sense that you ’ re going to have to relax social distancing .
The one thing we hopefully would have in place , and I believe we will have in place , is a much more robust system to be able to identify someone who ’ s infected , isolate them , and then do contact tracing .
Because if you have a really good program of containment that prevents you from @ @ @ @ @ @ @ we ’ re in mitigation right now .
That ’ s what the social and physical distancing is .
The ultimate — the ultimate solution to a virus that might keep coming back would be a vaccine .
In fact , I was on the weekly conference call with the WHO-sponsored group of all the health leaders in the world who are dealing with this .
And we all came to the agreement that we may have cycling with another season .
We ’ ll be much better prepared .
We likely will @ @ @ @ @ @ @ changer in this will be a vaccine , the same way a vaccine for other diseases , that were scourges in the past , that now we don ’ t even worry .
THE PRESIDENT : And , Tony , how are they — how are they doing with the vaccines , Tony ?
DR. FAUCI : I mean , the vaccine is — is , as I said , it ’ s on target .
We ’ re still in phase one .
There were three doses that we had to test @ @ @ @ @ @ @ first two doses .
We ’ re on the highest dose now .
When we get that data — it ’ ll take a few months to get the data to feel confident to go to the phase two .
And then a few months from now , we ’ ll be in phase two .
And I think we ’ re right on target for the year to a year and a half .
( End Transcript ) Setting aside that Fauci loves him some vaccines… ( along with Bill Gates ) @ @ @ @ @ @ @ social distancing until new cases of COVID-19 are no longer happening is essentially keeping the country locked down for many months , possibly years .
That is just nuts… .
However , that type of over-the-top gibberish is identical to other statements made by Fauci during this crisis which we first noted on March 17th .
There ’ s been a debate about possible political motives surrounding the panic he has created ; the massive economic damage he has inflicted ; and the conflicting assertions of National Institute of Allergy and Infections Diseases @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
CTH identifies the motives as sketchy .
He appears to use his position to advance theories and yet position himself to avoid scrutiny .
Sometimes within a 24 hour period Fauci will make a statement , then contradict the initial assertion , then attempt to cloud his own conflict with obtuse and wordy explanations .
After watching for several weeks , we called it out HERE .

….Sometimes within a 24 hour period Fauci will make a statement, then contradict the initial assertion, then attempt to cloud his own conflict with obtuse and wordy explanations…
CTH noted yesterday that Dr. Fauci was once again talking nonsense on a level that is almost incredible; but we needed to see it in the official transcript to be certain.
During the coronavirus briefing on Wednesday April 1st, Dr. Fauci stated -and no media challenged him- that CDC guidelines for “stay-at-home” directives would remain in place until all new cases ceased, & deaths were no longer happening. This could take years.
[Transcript (emphasis mine)] – Q Thanks, Mr. President. A question for Dr. Fauci. Looking beyond, when we’re on the other side of this curve, are we looking at living with some sort of social distancing guidelines essentially until there’s treatment or a vaccine? For example, people looking forward to the summer talk about, you know, going to baseball games, going to concerts. We have political conventions over the summer. Are things like that possible or safe without a vaccine or a treatment in place?
DR. FAUCI: Yeah, I think if we get to the part of the curve that Dr. Birx showed yesterday when it goes down to essentially no new cases, no deaths at a period of time, I think it makes sense that you’re going to have to relax social distancing.
The one thing we hopefully would have in place, and I believe we will have in place, is a much more robust system to be able to identify someone who’s infected, isolate them, and then do contact tracing. Because if you have a really good program of containment that prevents you from ever having to get into mitigation — we’re in mitigation right now. That’s what the social and physical distancing is.
The ultimate — the ultimate solution to a virus that might keep coming back would be a vaccine. In fact, I was on the weekly conference call with the WHO-sponsored group of all the health leaders in the world who are dealing with this. And we all came to the agreement that we may have cycling with another season. We’ll be much better prepared. We likely will have interventions. But the ultimate game changer in this will be a vaccine, the same way a vaccine for other diseases, that were scourges in the past, that now we don’t even worry.
THE PRESIDENT: And, Tony, how are they — how are they doing with the vaccines, Tony?
DR. FAUCI: I mean, the vaccine is — is, as I said, it’s on target. We’re still in phase one. There were three doses that we had to test. We’ve been through the first two doses. We’re on the highest dose now.
When we get that data — it’ll take a few months to get the data to feel confident to go to the phase two. And then a few months from now, we’ll be in phase two. And I think we’re right on target for the year to a year and a half. (End Transcript)
Setting aside that Fauci loves him some vaccines… (along with Bill Gates)… the fact Fauci would advocate for social distancing until new cases of COVID-19 are no longer happening is essentially keeping the country locked down for many months, possibly years.
That is just nuts…. However, that type of over-the-top gibberish is identical to other statements made by Fauci during this crisis which we first noted on March 17th.
There’s been a debate about possible political motives surrounding the panic he has created; the massive economic damage he has inflicted; and the conflicting assertions of National Institute of Allergy and Infections Diseases (NIAID) Director Dr. Anthony Fauci.
CTH identifies the motives as sketchy. He appears to use his position to advance theories and yet position himself to avoid scrutiny.
Sometimes within a 24 hour period Fauci will make a statement, then contradict the initial assertion, then attempt to cloud his own conflict with obtuse and wordy explanations. After watching for several weeks, we called it out HERE.
Perhaps one way to help see through the professional obfuscation, and identify just exactly how political Dr. Fauci is, would be to: compare and contrast Dr. Fauci under President Obama in September 2009 after 3,000 to 4,000 H1N1 deaths in the USA -vs- Dr. Fauci under President Trump in March 2020 after 200 to 300 COVID-19 deaths.

Now, pause for a moment – reread that again – don’t skip past it. Think about what type of mindset would send such a letter and communication. Apply common sense. Trust your instincts…
Would a person of reasonable disposition send such a letter or email to anyone in their professional network? Would you ever consider writing a letter to your employer, or the family of your employer, declaring your undying love and devotion toward them?
“rarely does a speech bring me to tears”?… “please tell her I love her more than ever”?.. “please tell her that we all love her”… etc.
Seriously…. think about it. If you have ever engaged in a large system, large business, or large network of professionals, how would you react to a person inside that organization who was sending such non-professional communication? What exactly does that say about the emotional stability of such a person?
And this person, right now, with this inherent sensibility, has the most consequential and direct influence over the decision-making for the worlds most powerful nation. Stunning.
Now reconsider:
The concept of “flattening” the virus curve; the presumptive reason for social distancing and shutting down the U.S. economy; is based on a theory to extend the spread of COVID-19 to a lesser incident rate over a longer duration, thereby lessening the burden on the U.S. healthcare system. Hence, ‘flatten’ the spike in infections.
Put another way: “Flattening” means the same number of people eventually contract the virus, only they do so over a longer period of time, and the healthcare system can treat everyone because the numbers do not rise to level where the system is overloaded. In theory that seems to make sense.
However, no-one is asking: what is the current stress level on the healthcare system right now? Where are we in that capacity?… and what is normal capacity level during a high-level flu outbreak?… and Where are we when compared against that baseline?
♦ Remember in 2009 there were over 61 million cases of H1N1, more than 274,000 hospitalizations and 12,469 additional deaths specifically attributed to that strain of flu virus in the U.S. [DATA HERE]
The premise to extend the virus duration in an effort to lower the infection rate and spread the virus over a longer period of time needs to measured against: (a) where the healthcare system is at any given moment; and (b) under traditional high-flu seasons where are we during those historic events.
♦ STRESS LEVEL – The healthcare ‘system’ per se, is expending an awful lot of time on mitigation efforts. As Dr. Birx noted: the current negative test rate for coronavirus among those showing symptoms who are tested is 94 to 98 percent. That means of all the people taking coronavirus tests, 94/98 out of 100 are symptomatic (they are sick) but they are not infected with coronavirus. They are normal flu cases.
Our healthcare “system” is expending an incredible amount of resources on a mitigation effort. According to Dr. Birx and the current U.S. test results, 94 to 98 percent of those mitigation efforts are not engaging with coronavirus. They are dealing with regular flu (perhaps a strong flu).
If you extract the mitigation effort from the overall effort, the current stress level on the healthcare system doesn’t seem to be overwhelming. What is stressing the system is a coronavirus mitigation effort with a rate of 94 to 98 percent testing negative.
♦ Dr. Fauci’s theory is self-fulfilling.
If the viral spread never exceeds the capacity of the healthcare system to deal with it, he can claim success. Look, our flattened curve worked.
However, when contrast against flu outbreaks, no-one knows what the COVID-19 capacity threshold is within the healthcare system. There’s no way to disprove Fauci’s theory.
Given the nature of the baseline for overall U.S. sanitation and hygiene, which is significantly higher than Italy, S-Korea and China; and given the higher standards of food safety (U.S. is the world leader); again significantly higher than Italy, S-Korea and China; and given the nature of the U.S. healthcare system (more capacity per person); is it really a fair comparison to overlay a COVID-19 outbreak, without also overlaying a traditional flu outbreak?
♦ Remember in 2009 there were over 61 million cases of H1N1, more than 274,000 hospitalizations and 12,469 additional deaths specifically attributed to that strain of flu virus in the U.S. [DATA HERE]
We did not shut down the U.S. economy in 2009. Any theory that cannot be scientifically tested; and is simultaneously self-fulfilling; is, by its nature, a false theory.
This is not to say that Dr. Anthony Fauci is intentionally misleading anyone; however, it is absolutely true that no-one will be able to quantify if trillions of dollars of economic wealth lost; and trillions more in economic activity lost; and trillions more in deficit spending; and that might all be done just to follow the fantastical whims of a doctor who is directing the mitigation of an ordinary flu-virus/season, and appears to be quite full of his own sense of self-importance.

Theodore Roosevelt after the captain used incredibly poor judgement, sent a “non-secure” email to media, compromised his position, violated the chain-of-command (stunningly with a fleet commander on board his ship), put his crew at risk, and incited panic amid the families of the crew members.
Yes, this unstable captain needed to be removed – quickly. Good grief, could you imagine if Captain Crozier was operating in a hostile theater. Navy Secretary Thomas Modly explains the issues. WATCH:


theconservativetreehouse--2020-04-03--President Trump Has Long Demanded Critical Manufacturing Return to the U.S. – The Coronavirus Pandem

President Trump Has Long Demanded Critical Manufacturing Return to the U.S. – The Coronavirus Pandemic Outlines Why…

The lack of independent control over critical healthcare products is highlighting exactly why Donald J Trump has been demanding U.S. manufacturing firms return production to this nation for years .
White House trade advisor Peter Navarro drove home the point yesterday : [ Transcript ] – Q : Mr. Navarro , what ’ s the status of the “ Buy American ” executive order ?
MR. NAVARRO : “ One of the — one of the things that this crisis has taught us , sir , is that we are dangerously over-dependent on a global supply chain for our medicines @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , like masks ; and our medical equipment , like ventilators .
We have — right now as we speak , over 50 countries have already imposed some forms of export restrictions in their country against the rest of the world .
And what we ’ ve — what we ’ re learning from that is that no matter how many treaties you have , no matter how many alliances , no matter how many phone calls , when push comes to shove you run the risk , as a nation , of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ And if there ’ s any vindication of the President ’ s “ Buy American , secure borders , and a strong manufacturing base ” philosophy , strategy , and belief , it is this crisis — because it underscores everything that we see there .
So the “ Buy American ” order , which — which is going through process , would do a couple things .
It would simply say , — not during this crisis , because we don ’ t want to disrupt anything .
I want to be @ @ @ @ @ @ @ forward , after this is over , the VA , DOD , HHS , and this government buys American for essential medicines , our medical countermeasures , and the medical supplies and equipment we need .
At the same time , it will deregulate so we can get the FDA and EPA to facilitate domestic manufacturing .
And then , innovate .
Because the key here — the key here is having advanced manufacturing on U.S. soil that can leapfrog other countries so we don ’ t have to worry about competing against @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , different tax regimes , and the massive subsidies of foreign governments who are actually directly attacking our industrial base .
So be patient with that , sir .
It ’ s — the other priorities we have right now are to DPA and what the task force is doing .
But if we learn anything from this crisis , it should be never again .
Never again should we have to depend on the rest of the world for our essential medicines and countermeasures.
” ( read more ) From the outset @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the world of politics he espoused a series of key tenets around what he called his “ America-First ” objectives : • The U.S. needed to have control over our borders , and a greater ability to control who was migrating to the United States .
A shift toward stopping ‘ illegal ’ migration .
• The U.S. needed to stop the manufacture of goods overseas and return critical manufacturing back to the United States .
A return to economic independence .
• The U.S. needed to decouple from an over-reliance on Chinese @ @ @ @ @ @ @ as a geopolitical and economic risk .
Donald Trump was alone on these issues .
No-one else was raising them ; no-one else was so urgently pushing that discussion .
In 2015 , 2016 and even 2017 , no-one other than Trump was talking about how close we were to the dependence point of no return .
Given the status of very consequential issues stemming from the Chinese Coronavirus threat ; and the myriad of serious issues with critical supply chain dependencies ; wasn ’ t President Trump correct in his warnings and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and his administration coined the phrase : “ economic security is national security ” , and the economic team set about starting a very complex process to ensure the past three decades of trade policy was reversed .
One month after taking office , February 2017 , President Trump met with labor unions and assembled a corporate manufacturing council , telling all of them they needed to change their thinking about manufacturing overseas .
The members of the council didn ’ t like the conversation ; many of them were Wall Street multinationals @ @ @ @ @ @ @ shift in moving jobs to Asia and beyond .
Several months later the council disbanded amid the policy contention ; but Trump persisted with the America First agenda .
President Trump , never wavered ; he warned the corporate CEO ’ s they needed to adjust their thinking and bring back their manufacturing jobs .
Trump warned them to reorient their supply chains because they had become too dependent on China ; and that dependency was manifesting as geopolitical risk if the U.S. and China were in conflict .
Time after time , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of events where few media were paying attention , President Trump spoke privately and publicly about the issue of over-reliance on Chinese products and critical goods from southeast Asia .
Then , after months of warnings , came the tariff hammer .
Those same manufacturing council executives and their Wall Street pundits screamed into every microphone they could find that President Trump was going to collapse the economy ; that consumer prices would skyrocket ; that Steel and Aluminum tariffs would mean everything from beer to soup would no longer be affordable .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ and USTR Robert Lighthizer didn ’ t waiver .
President Trump accepted the criticism of “ Tariff-Man ” ; he owned the downside and then expanded the tariffs even higher upon more goods .
The CEO ’ s shrieked louder , but eventually , reluctantly , some started moving supply chains out of China .
While Team Trump renegotiated trade with South Korea and Japan ; and while Trump renegotiated NAFTA with Mexico and Canada ; the president kept the pressure on those U.S. corporations and multinationals to return critical manufacturing to the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ global pandemic known as Coronavirus , people are starting to awaken to the real dangers of our medicines , pharmaceuticals and critical health care products being made overseas .
Right now we see the clear reasons why President Trump was so adamant about a conversation no-one wanted , Wall Street hated , and few were paying attention to .
Heck , it is only now that most Americans realize just how many critical products are at risk… .
and instead of thanking President Trump for the foresight , the incredible prescience he exhibited @ @ @ @ @ @ @ him for over details around an issue they allowed to happen .
In many cases those who are now criticizing the weakness of our supply-chain are the same people who participated in creating a manufacturing system based on dependency , for decades .
The criticism is not only unreal to witness , it ’ s maddening in the scale of its hypocrisy .
It sure is blood-boiling to watch the media now .
To see the media cheer-leading for a national health crisis -literally with smiling faces as they hope for an economic @ @ @ @ @ @ @ they cheered the impeachment effort .
The level of U.S. media vitriol against President Trump is sickening .
The American mainstream media truly is the enemy of a prosperous and thriving America .

From the outset of Donald Trump’s entry into the world of politics he espoused a series of key tenets around what he called his “America-First” objectives:
The U.S. needed to have control over our borders, and a greater ability to control who was migrating to the United States. A shift toward stopping ‘illegal’ migration. The U.S. needed to stop the manufacture of goods overseas and return critical manufacturing back to the United States. A return to economic independence. The U.S. needed to decouple from an over-reliance on Chinese industrial and consumer products. China viewed as a geopolitical and economic risk.
Donald Trump was alone on these issues. No-one else was raising them; no-one else was so urgently pushing that discussion. In 2015, 2016 and even 2017, no-one other than Trump was talking about how close we were to the dependence point of no return.
Given the status of very consequential issues stemming from the Chinese Coronavirus threat; and the myriad of serious issues with critical supply chain dependencies; wasn’t President Trump correct in his warnings and proposals?
In early 2017 President Trump and his administration coined the phrase: “economic security is national security”, and the economic team set about starting a very complex process to ensure the past three decades of trade policy was reversed.
One month after taking office, February 2017, President Trump met with labor unions and assembled a corporate manufacturing council, telling all of them they needed to change their thinking about manufacturing overseas.
The members of the council didn’t like the conversation; many of them were Wall Street multinationals who were themselves part of the historic shift in moving jobs to Asia and beyond. Several months later the council disbanded amid the policy contention; but Trump persisted with the America First agenda.
President Trump, never wavered; he warned the corporate CEO’s they needed to adjust their thinking and bring back their manufacturing jobs. Trump warned them to reorient their supply chains because they had become too dependent on China; and that dependency was manifesting as geopolitical risk if the U.S. and China were in conflict.
Time after time, conversation after conversation, in the background of events where few media were paying attention, President Trump spoke privately and publicly about the issue of over-reliance on Chinese products and critical goods from southeast Asia.
Then, after months of warnings, came the tariff hammer.
Those same manufacturing council executives and their Wall Street pundits screamed into every microphone they could find that President Trump was going to collapse the economy; that consumer prices would skyrocket; that Steel and Aluminum tariffs would mean everything from beer to soup would no longer be affordable.
Team Trump, Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross and USTR Robert Lighthizer didn’t waiver. President Trump accepted the criticism of “Tariff-Man”; he owned the downside and then expanded the tariffs even higher upon more goods. The CEO’s shrieked louder, but eventually, reluctantly, some started moving supply chains out of China.
While Team Trump renegotiated trade with South Korea and Japan; and while Trump renegotiated NAFTA with Mexico and Canada; the president kept the pressure on those U.S. corporations and multinationals to return critical manufacturing to the United States.
Now, with the global pandemic known as Coronavirus, people are starting to awaken to the real dangers of our medicines, pharmaceuticals and critical health care products being made overseas. Right now we see the clear reasons why President Trump was so adamant about a conversation no-one wanted, Wall Street hated, and few were paying attention to.
Heck, it is only now that most Americans realize just how many critical products are at risk…. and instead of thanking President Trump for the foresight, the incredible prescience he exhibited, the professional political class are criticizing him for over details around an issue they allowed to happen.
In many cases those who are now criticizing the weakness of our supply-chain are the same people who participated in creating a manufacturing system based on dependency, for decades. The criticism is not only unreal to witness, it’s maddening in the scale of its hypocrisy.
It sure is blood-boiling to watch the media now. To see the media cheer-leading for a national health crisis -literally with smiling faces as they hope for an economic collapse- for the exact same gleeful reason they cheered the impeachment effort. The level of U.S. media vitriol against President Trump is sickening.
The American mainstream media truly is the enemy of a prosperous and thriving America.
These times will never be forgotten.
God bless President Trump….
….And Thank You Prescient Trump.
We will never forget.

Everything you would ever need to know about a slimy multinational corporate executive is laid out in this interview with 3M CEO Mike Roman. While answering questions globalist Roman tries to hide what 3M is doing by stuttering and stammering around cover words.
Keep in mind, 3M is a U.S. owned company doing manufacturing business inside China. However, Beijing took control over 3M and nationalized their manufacturing facilities. But Roman doesn’t want to admit what happened. Listen carefully at 03:00:

National Economic Council Director Larry Kudlow appears on Fox News to answer Sandra Smith’s dramatic questions about the U.S. economy collapsing and “dropping into the deepest recession in U.S. history.” The Trump administration has devoted enormous resources to the COVID-19 stimulus package to keep families and small businesses afloat amid the coronavirus outbreak.
.
Meanwhile Bill Hemmer is waxing philosophically about hearing the sounds of birds in Manhattan for the first time in generations and what that means to America. According to the knucklehead COVID-19 appears to be forcing planet earth to heal itself from a parasitic human society that lost connection to their deeper selves.
Meanwhile on CNN Chris Cuomo and Brooke Baldwin play the role of “influencers” for the WHO; selling with dramatic flare what it’s like to cope with Coronavirus, and how that changes you as a person to become more deep and connected to your center sphere… It’s a level of enlightenment only possible through the virus.
Friggin’ nuts.
All of this.
