Also like Epstein, he has continued to face sexual misconduct charges and allegations of pedophilia for decades, but has never been prosecuted.
Nygard, whose worth is estimated at around $800 million, also boasts a list of famous friends, including George H. W. Bush, Oprah Winfrey, Robert DeNiro, and famous Epstein associate, Prince Andrew, who once stayed on his estate.
The federal lawsuit claims that Nygard used several of his corporate entities for various services related to perpetrating the abuse, such as international air travel, and also alleges bribery of Bahamian police and government to cover up what he was doing.
Nygard and his spokesman have stated that he intends to cooperate, and attempted to lay the blame for the lawsuit on Louis Bacon, a billionaire hedge fund manager who is Nygard’s Bahamian neighbor and with whom he has had a long-standing and bitter personal conflict.
Shortly before the Manhattan raid, Nygard stepped down from his position at the company that bears his name. Recently, the Nygard Group of Companies has announced an intention to begin financial restructuring to avoid bankruptcy, as it faces the potential loss of top customers and lenders.
A Nygard spokesman also claimed that his offices in LA were similarly raided, but this was not confirmed by the feds. For now it remains to be seen whether guilt will be determined and another millionaire will face justice.

At one point, the swamp creature appeared to seriously believe that a primary challenger was going to defeat Trump in the 2020 Republican primary.
The Republican who’ll beat Trump in the 2020 primaries will run on a REAL drain the swamp platform: Against influence of Saudi, Chinese and Russian money.

Lipinski has 21,642 votes or 44.6 percent of the margin with 59 percent of the vote currently being tallied .

Illinois and Arizona are also voting today, after a controversy in which many concerned citizens called for the states to postpone their primaries to advert spread of the Chinese coronavirus.
Concerns about the disease appear to have dampened turnout in Florida, where one Orlando-area source described a turnout of 20% of eligible voters coming out to vote.
Florida has 248 delegates, the fourth-most of any state in the country.
The states declined to postpone the contests, and Democratic National Convention chair Tom Perez has warned that states that do postpone could face possible delegate ramifications at the convention. Apparently keeping things going as usual is of greater importance to the Democratic Party than concerns over the virus.
Polls have Biden leading safely in all three of the medium-to-large states to vote on Super Tuesday III. The former Vice President drew criticism by encouraging his supporters to turn out and vote for him in spite of the coronavirus epidemic.
If Bernie Sanders fails to win Arizona, it’s probably safe to say that the Democratic Primary is effectively over.

John Binder of Breitbart News noted the following:
There are about 650,000 H-1B visa foreign workers in the U.S. at any given moment. Americans are often laid off in the process and forced to train their foreign replacements, as highlighted by Breitbart News.

FEAR SPREADING: 1 in 5 Americans Now Expect to Be Inflicted with Chinese Coronavirus
A survey conducted by StudyFinds has found that 1 in 5 Americans now expect to catch the Chinese coronavirus as the pander that has forced society to shutter almost completely continues to pick up steam
Their study of 502 people showed that 19.32 percent of respondents indicated that they think they will contract the coronavirus at some point. Nearly 10 percent of respondents actually think they are carrying the coronavirus right now. 20 percent of respondents ages 18-29 and 18 percent of those with the ages of 30-45 think they are currently carrying the coronavirus.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is urging people who believe they are infected to contact a doctor immediately.
“If you think you have been exposed to COVID-19 and develop a fever and symptoms, such as cough or difficulty breathing, call your healthcare provider for medical advice,” they write on their official website.
Even though hysteria is at an all-time high, reports have indicated that the upcoming improvement in weather may slow down or end the pandemic that is causing mass hysteria:
A case study by a team of Chinese academics suggests that warm weather and humidity do deter the spread of the coronavirus, a development that could prove to be a welcome relief for nations afflicted with the disease as they approach the warmer spring and summer months. The study, titled “High Temperature and High Humidity Reduce the Transmission of COVID-19,” involved analysis of coronavirus diagnoses in various cities across China. Researchers examined the intensity of outbreaks in climates ranging in heat and humidity levels. Their summary of results describes the effects of climate on transmission of the disease in clear terms. “We find, under a linear regression framework for 100 Chinese cities, high temperature and high relative humidity significantly reduce the transmission of COVID-19.” The scholars even go on as to state that coming summer climates in the northern hemisphere will deter spread of the disease, although it’s hard to qualify to exact extent. A weakness to warm climate would place the coronavirus in a similar category to other viral diseases, such as influenza. It’s long been known that warm and hot climates are not favorable for the spread of disease. “It indicates that the arrival of summer and rainy season in the northern hemisphere can effectively reduce the transmission of the COVID-19.”
The panic coming from the coronavirus pandemic and the mass media coverage surrounding it may be overblown if this study is true. Nevertheless, the fear is being felt among the public as they are increasingly sequestered from society.

English Catholics Urge Vatican to “Tear up” Deal with Communist China
According to LifeSite News, a number of English Catholics, which includes Deacon Nick Donnelly and frequent LifeSite contributor Dr. Joseph Shaw, have signed on to an open letter demanding that the Vatican’s deal with China be “torn up.”
“We the undersigned are writing to express our burning anxiety at the Vatican’s treaty with the People’s Republic of China (PRC) in the light of the China Tribunal’s findings into forced organ harvesting,” the letter published in the Catholic Herald started off with.
The China Tribunal, a human rights group based in London, informed the U.N. Human Rights Council in September 2019 that China harvests skin, kidneys, lungs, and hearts from members of persecuted religious groups, such as the Falun Gong and Uighur Muslims.
Deacon Donnelly Tweeted the contents of the letter by English Catholics protesting Pope Francis’s deal with the People’s Republic of China, in which they described it as “no coincidence.”
“With burning anxiety was the title of Pope Pius XI’s encyclical Mit brennender Sorge protesting the inhumanities of the Nazis regime,” he remarked.
The letter highlights the “[w]idespread accounts of rape and torture” committed in the Chinese government’s state-run program of forced organ-harvesting from prisoners of conscience. In addition, it calls attention to how the government also “harasses and detains leading Catholic clergy and destroys Catholic shrines and churches which refuse to join the official ‘Patriotic Church.’”
“Despite these recent and present human rights abuses, some Vatican representatives have shamed their office and their Christian profession in their responses to concerns about the Holy See’s 22nd September 2018 provisional agreement with the PRC,” the letter declared.
“In 2018, Bishop Marcelo Sánchez Sorondo, the head of the Pontifical Academy of Social Sciences, asserted that the Chinese government had ‘accomplished the reform of the organ donation system’ and even went on to claim that ‘those who are best implementing the social doctrine of the Church are the Chinese.’”
The details of The Vatican-China agreement, which was signed in September 2018, has yet to be publicized. However, many Vatican-observers believe it would allow Chinese communist leaders to handpick bishops who will then receive the pope’s approval, which goes against Catholic teachings.

Now, Europe has been declared the global epicenter of the coronavirus epidemic and the EU has finally implemented an external travel ban of its own, perhaps far too late.
Canadian and American officials have described the nature of the bilateral travel ban as preserving some economic trade between the neighboring countries. The ban targets “non-essential travel,” a term which officials are working to concisely define before the travel ban’s implementation.

The ban is one of several applied by Canada restricting entry into its borders by foreign citizens.

#NeverTrump Failure Jonah Goldberg Pushes ChiCom PC Rhetoric on Chinese Virus
Conservative gatekeeper Jonah Goldberg wrote a piece titled “Debating Virus Terminology is a Waste of Energy” trying to play the role of “reasonable” conservative during the ongoing PC debate about how to refer to the current pandemic —originating in Wuhan, China — shocking the entire world.
In typical fashion, he tries to play the centrist role by calling out some members of the leftist media while also taking some of the most effective conservatives in Congress to task.
He specifically singled out Arizona Congressman Paul Gosar:
While it’s not racist to refer to it as the Chinese coronavirus or Wuhan virus, there are people on the right eager to play into the very stereotype the left is decrying by refusing to use the official name. This brouhaha started in large part because of a “Wuhan virus” tweet by Rep. Paul Gosar, R-Ariz., a crackpot fond of playing footsie with white supremacist idiots. (He’s claimed, among other things, that the 2017 “Unite the Right” rally in Charlottesville, Virginia, was a left-wing stunt possibly funded by George Soros.)
Never mind that Charlottesville police engaged in one of the most heinous examples of anarcho-tyranny and let leftist radicals operate with virtual impunity at the event, which escalated tensions and led to a fatal confrontation.
Additionally, Gosar is one of the most America First candidates Congress, who has stood strong on issues like immigration and foreign policy.
Goldberg called out President Donald Trump as well for trying to capitalize on this crisis:
Others have a more serious agenda. Some people, deeply committed to the new nationalist cause and the effort to paint China as an enemy of the United States, have jumped on this crisis as an opportunity to further stigmatize China. After all, a crisis is a terrible thing to waste. That’s why President Trump tweeted on Tuesday, “We need the Wall more than ever!”
What Goldberg doesn’t get is that the Wuhan virus outbreak is not a pretext to justify overreach, but instead demonstrates Trump’s 2016 concerns about globalism — the pitfalls of unrestricted movement of people and “free trade” with despotic regimes with questionable environmental standards. Because of these recent developments, Trump should not hesitate to flex his muscles against globalism by closing the border and passing America First immigration restriction policies.
Goldberg has a long history of moving to the Left on issues ranging from immigration to gay marriage, so he can never be counted on to be an effective advocate nor ally to America First causes.
And you wonder why so-called “conservatives” can’t conserve anything of value?
