thewashingtonstandard--2020-03-19--Hillary’s Favorite Film is Turkish Gov Agitprop for Bin Laden Pal

“ If you haven ’ t seen The Dissident , I hope you will , ” Hillary Clinton told the folks at the Sundance Film Festival .
The Dissident is Sundance ’ s hottest documentary .
It ’ s also Turkish government propaganda .
Hillary ’ s comments at Sundance exposed a chunk of the fake news problem surrounding The Dissident .
“ We just learned about the pacing of malware on Jeff Bezos ’ phone , ironically technology created in Israel and sold to the Saudi government , ” she falsely claimed .
Despite these false claims made by @ @ @ @ @ @ @ by Bezos , which has spread conspiracy theories trying to blame the exposure of his affair on entire countries , the actual report when reviewed by cybersecurity experts found no actual malware of any kind on the billionaire ’ s phone .
The hack of the billionaire ’ s phone that wasn ’ t is an example of the fake news vortex surrounding the death of Jamal Khashoggi .
Bezos cronies have alleged that the Amazon boss had his affair exposed by the Saudis in retaliation for the Post ’ s decision to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ The Dissident is the latest effort at mythologizing Khashoggi , a former Saudi stooge , terror propagandist , bigot , and friend of Osama bin Laden , by Islamist interests operating out of Qatar and Turkey .
Jamal Khashoggi was not a journalist : he was producing pro-Islamist and anti-Saudi propaganda for the Qatar Foundation , a pro-terror organization , which helped draft his articles and dictated their content .
There are actual dissidents and actual journalists in prison in Islamist tyrannies like Turkey .
But instead of telling their stories , The @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , turned to Turkey ’ s Islamist regime .
Bryan Fogel claims to care deeply about human rights .
He cares so deeply that he ignored the tens of thousands of political prisoners in Turkey , journalists , judges , professors , and Kurds , to lobby the regime to help him make a propaganda flick about Khashoggi .
Nor is Fogel at all ashamed of toadying to Turkey .
Articles about The Dissident boast of how Fogel received “ unprecedented access ” to material from the Turkish government and its intelligence apparatus @ @ @ @ @ @ @ access to CIA materials while making a completely uncritical documentary about its role would face a torrent of criticism .
Yet The Dissident has met with equally uncritical praise even as it boasts of its access and parrots propaganda from a despotic regime which is engaged in ethnic cleansing at home and abroad .
“ I was building a relationship with the Turkish government who at the end of the day saw the power they could have in this story if they allowed me to tell it , rather than it coming out @ @ @ @ @ @ @ admitted .
What Fogel was offering Erdogan and his cronies was a credible whitewashing of their propaganda .
The false narrative of Khashoggi as a political dissident , rather than an Islamist bigot , would be more effective if it came from a seemingly independent filmmaker rather than the Turkish state which , after Erdogan ’ s Reichstag coup , had destroyed the country ’ s last vestiges of an independent press .
Asked about Erdogan ’ s human rights abuses , Fogel shrugged them off .
“ You have to know when @ @ @ @ @ @ @ story you ’ re telling… This was not the film to focus on other political matters and in this case Turkey has been a superhero .
I felt very strongly that this wasn ’ t the film to go down political rabbit holes , ” he insisted .
Turkey ’ s lack of an independent press , its ethnic cleansing of Kurds , and its 48,924 political prisoners would be one of those “ political rabbit holes ” that Fogel didn ’ t want to explore .
The Leni Riefenstahl of Sundance was @ @ @ @ @ @ @ s political martyr , its Horst Wessel , and noting that Hitler and Goebbels aren ’ t very nice people would be a political rabbit hole that would ruin the whole tale .
You either care about human rights or you don ’ t .
If Fogel cared about human rights , then the UN special rapporteur ’ s report documenting the Erdogan regime ’ s torture of professors , journalists , officers , and many others would have made a much better and more important documentary than The Dissident .
It ’ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ told , and , unlike Khashoggi ’ s myth , never will be told at any major level .
Fogel pawning out his camera to Erdogan ’ s regime while refusing to discuss its abuses is an indictment .
Orwell Productions , Fogel ’ s company , mistakes 1984 for a guide , rather than a warning .
The Dissident is Orwellian , political propaganda , the same discredited lies , dressed up with special effects and a human interest angle , on behalf of a dictator who has eliminated actual dissidents in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the world to see and fall in love with Jamal and understand this man was not Muslim Brotherhood or an al-Qaeda sympathiser or all these things being presented by Saudi Arabia or being written about by the alt press in the United States , ” Fogel tells an interviewer .
The plain facts of the matter are that Khashoggi was both of these things which The Dissident is denying .
Fogel , the director of Jewtopia , may be in love with Khashoggi , but the Islamist would have loathed him .
Jamal @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Brotherhood , which had allied with Nazi Germany and continues to celebrate Hitler , promoted the Protocols of the Elders of Zion and defended Holocaust denial .
He tweeted , “ everything can be ended by the rule of Assad and the rule of the Jews.
” All this vile stuff could be found on Khashoggi ’ s own Twitter account , not the “ alt press ” .
The Dissident is yet another exercise in historical revisionism by a powerful industry built on repeating the same lies : in Fogel ’ s @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Turkish propaganda .
Khashoggi ’ s journalistic career began when he followed his old friend Osama bin Laden to Afghanistan on behalf of a man listed by the Treasury Department as one of “ the world ’ s foremost terrorist financiers ” .
There he churned out Jihadi propaganda like , “ Arab Mujahadeen in Afghanistan II : Exemplifies the Unity of Islamic Ummah ” .
Afterward , he became a stooge for the Saudi state for the likes of Prince Turki bin Faisal , who was linked to Al Qaeda , and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
Jamal Khashoggi became a dissident , not because he wanted a freer Saudi Arabia , but because Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman had turned on Islamists like Khashoggi and his Muslim Brotherhood pals .
“ Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman should get rid of his complex against the Muslim Brotherhood and stop treating them as the enemy or a threat to Saudi Arabia , ” Khashoggi had complained , and urged a confrontation with Israel instead .
After the Saudis were no longer interested in funding Islamist dreams of world conquest , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in Qatar and Turkey who were more than happy to step in .
He was a dissident in the same way that former Communists in Russia or old Nazis in Argentina are dissidents .
Saudi Arabia under MBS has become more liberal for the average person while Turkey under Erdogan has become more tyrannical .
In Saudi Arabia , women have become more able to vote and drive .
Meanwhile , the number of women being murdered in Turkey for their gender is continuing to rise .
And the perpetrators under Erdogan ’ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ than a slap on the wrist .
The Dissident and Fogel weigh in on the side of dragging Saudi Arabia back while tossing away the reforms that Islamists loathe , all the while falsely depicting this as a struggle between autocracy and democracy .
This same Islamist lie led to the Arab Spring and the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people , the rise of ISIS , the rape of little girls , and the use of chemical weapons against civilians .
But the liars can ’ t get enough of that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ courageous defense of human rights .
It ’ s another echo in an echo chamber run by Qatar and Turkey .
Instead of telling the stories of the protesters who battled Erdogan ’ s thugs in the streets , professors tortured in gymnasiums , and journalists jailed for reporting on the regime ’ s corruption , Bryan Fogel chose the profitable route of amplifying the narratives of Erdogan ’ s regime .
In interviews , Bryan Fogel had the chutzpah to suggest that his life is at risk for making The Dissident .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ , ” the self-promoting hack claimed .
“ I have this strange nightmare that Putin calls Mohammed bin Salman and goes , ‘ Hey buddy , this American filmmaker , he ’ s causing us lots of problems .
You know , look , maybe we do something.
’ ” There will be no assassins coming to the Orwell Productions offices in Santa Monica near the beach .
The praise from figures like Hillary Clinton will keep rolling in as the echo chamber pressures Netflix to distribute The Dissident as part of a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ reformist Saudi government .
If it wins , a new Saudi government will be more likely to support terrorism against Americans , Europeans , and Israelis .
Like Horst Wessel , Jamal Khashoggi is an Islamist martyr whose death is being used as the engine to overthrow a government and kill hundreds of thousands of people .

“If you haven’t seen The Dissident, I hope you will,” Hillary Clinton told the folks at the Sundance Film Festival. The Dissident is Sundance’s hottest documentary. It’s also Turkish government propaganda.

Articles about The Dissident boast of how Fogel received “unprecedented access” to material from the Turkish government and its intelligence apparatus. Any filmmaker gushing about getting exclusive access to CIA materials while making a completely uncritical documentary about its role would face a torrent of criticism. Yet The Dissident has met with equally uncritical praise even as it boasts of its access and parrots propaganda from a despotic regime which is engaged in ethnic cleansing at home and abroad.
“I was building a relationship with the Turkish government who at the end of the day saw the power they could have in this story if they allowed me to tell it, rather than it coming out through Turkish media,” Bryan Fogel admitted.
What Fogel was offering Erdogan and his cronies was a credible whitewashing of their propaganda.
The false narrative of Khashoggi as a political dissident, rather than an Islamist bigot, would be more effective if it came from a seemingly independent filmmaker rather than the Turkish state which, after Erdogan’s Reichstag coup, had destroyed the country’s last vestiges of an independent press.

It’s a story that has never been told, and, unlike Khashoggi’s myth, never will be told at any major level.

“I needed the world to see and fall in love with Jamal and understand this man was not Muslim Brotherhood or an al-Qaeda sympathiser or all these things being presented by Saudi Arabia or being written about by the alt press in the United States,” Fogel tells an interviewer.
The plain facts of the matter are that Khashoggi was both of these things which The Dissident is denying.
Fogel, the director of Jewtopia, may be in love with Khashoggi, but the Islamist would have loathed him.

The Dissident is yet another exercise in historical revisionism by a powerful industry built on repeating the same lies: in Fogel’s Riefenstahlesque case with digital special effects and Turkish propaganda.
Khashoggi’s journalistic career began when he followed his old friend Osama bin Laden to Afghanistan on behalf of a man listed by the Treasury Department as one of “the world’s foremost terrorist financiers”. There he churned out Jihadi propaganda like, “Arab Mujahadeen in Afghanistan II: Exemplifies the Unity of Islamic Ummah”. Afterward, he became a stooge for the Saudi state for the likes of Prince Turki bin Faisal, who was linked to Al Qaeda, and blamed 9/11 on American support for Israel.
Jamal Khashoggi became a dissident, not because he wanted a freer Saudi Arabia, but because Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman had turned on Islamists like Khashoggi and his Muslim Brotherhood pals.
“Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman should get rid of his complex against the Muslim Brotherhood and stop treating them as the enemy or a threat to Saudi Arabia,” Khashoggi had complained, and urged a confrontation with Israel instead.
After the Saudis were no longer interested in funding Islamist dreams of world conquest, Khashoggi went to work for the regimes in Qatar and Turkey who were more than happy to step in. He was a dissident in the same way that former Communists in Russia or old Nazis in Argentina are dissidents.
Saudi Arabia under MBS has become more liberal for the average person while Turkey under Erdogan has become more tyrannical. In Saudi Arabia, women have become more able to vote and drive.

But the liars can’t get enough of that lie.
The Dissident is not a courageous defense of human rights. It’s another echo in an echo chamber run by Qatar and Turkey. Instead of telling the stories of the protesters who battled Erdogan’s thugs in the streets, professors tortured in gymnasiums, and journalists jailed for reporting on the regime’s corruption, Bryan Fogel chose the profitable route of amplifying the narratives of Erdogan’s regime.

“So far I’m OK,” the self-promoting hack claimed. “I have this strange nightmare that Putin calls Mohammed bin Salman and goes, ‘Hey buddy, this American filmmaker, he’s causing us lots of problems. You know, look, maybe we do something.’”
There will be no assassins coming to the Orwell Productions offices in Santa Monica near the beach. The praise from figures like Hillary Clinton will keep rolling in as the echo chamber pressures Netflix to distribute The Dissident as part of a larger campaign of informational warfare against a reformist Saudi government. If it wins, a new Saudi government will be more likely to support terrorism against Americans, Europeans, and Israelis. Like Horst Wessel, Jamal Khashoggi is an Islamist martyr whose death is being used as the engine to overthrow a government and kill hundreds of thousands of people.

How Long Do We Have Before COVID-19 Runs Its Course ?
As with all viral diseases , especially influenza , the COVID-19 virus is no exception when it comes to it having a timeline from when it first appeared , to that area having no new cases .
So , we can pretty much predict how long we are in for having to deal with the pandemic from examining when it first appeared in Wuhan in Hubel Province , China and the time they say they have no new cases .
The COVID-19 virus first appeared in Wuhan in early @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a pandemic there until the last week of December , so we are told from the Chinese .
Since they were reluctant to admit they had an uncontrollable disease that was killing people on a massive scale at first , we can assume the disease first appeared in the middle of the month .
As of the last 7 to ten days , China has reported a drastic reduction in new cases of COVID-19 to reporting they have no new cases as of today 03/19/2020 .
What this tells us is that this @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and a half months to totally run its course from the first case reported , to the day when no new cases are reported .
The first case of COVID-19 appeared in Washington state on January 15 , 2020 , so if we go by the two and a half month timeline for the disease to run its course we would be looking at the middle of April to have drastic reductions in new cases .
By the last week of April , the US should be reporting no new cases .
As @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is in the peak of the COVID-19 pandemic where many are infected with the virus and perhaps millions more will become infected in the next 2 weeks .
In the first two weeks of April , we should start seeing a drastic reduction in new cases and experience no new cases in the last part of the month .
The actual end of the pandemic here in the US could come even sooner since we have the most advanced medical science in the world .
In any case , it looks like things @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of April .

The COVID-19 virus first appeared in Wuhan in early December 2019, but did not become a pandemic there until the last week of December, so we are told from the Chinese.
Since they were reluctant to admit they had an uncontrollable disease that was killing people on a massive scale at first, we can assume the disease first appeared in the middle of the month.
As of the last 7 to ten days, China has reported a drastic reduction in new cases of COVID-19 to reporting they have no new cases as of today 03/19/2020.
What this tells us is that this disease has a span of about two and a half months to totally run its course from the first case reported, to the day when no new cases are reported.

As it is right now, the US is in the peak of the COVID-19 pandemic where many are infected with the virus and perhaps millions more will become infected in the next 2 weeks.
In the first two weeks of April, we should start seeing a drastic reduction in new cases and experience no new cases in the last part of the month.
The actual end of the pandemic here in the US could come even sooner since we have the most advanced medical science in the world.
In any case, it looks like things will start improving drastically by the middle of April.

An American Answer to the Coronavirus

When faced with hardship , Americans have a history of coming together and crying out to God .
This morning I read an article in TheTrumpet.com that recorded numerous occasions of prevailing prayer over American calamities : At the start of the American Revolutionary War , the Continental Congress declared : “ Congress … considering the present critical , alarming and calamitous state … do earnestly recommend , that Thursday , the 20th of July next , be observed by the inhabitants of all the English colonies on this continent , as a Day of Public Humiliation , Fasting and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ hearts and voices , unfeignedly confess and deplore our many sins and offer up our joint supplications to the all-wise , omnipotent and merciful disposer of all events , humbly beseeching Him to forgive our iniquities.
” Our novice American patriots went on to win a miraculous victory in the war for independence against the greatest empire in the world .
In his Inaugural Address , President George Washington acknowledged , “ [ I ] t would be peculiarly improper to omit in this first official act my fervent supplications to that Almighty @ @ @ @ @ @ @ who presides in the councils of nations , and whose providential aids can supply every human defect… ” In fact , almost every other president since has issued a proclamation of thanksgiving and/or prayer .
During World War I , President Woodrow Wilson proclaimed May 30 , 1918 , to be a day of prayer .
The German empire had almost broken through the Allied lines .
One day after the proclamation , the United States Marine Corps began its first major engagement of the war at Belleau Wood .
Then something miraculous @ @ @ @ @ @ @ victory over the Germans , keeping the Allies from losing the war .
During the mid-1800s , an estimated 150,000 Americans died from cholera , which was spread by drinking unsanitary water , though this was unknown at the time .
It was the first truly global disease , killing tens of millions in crowded cities all over the world : My friend Bill Federer , in his American minute newsletter , recently shared : “ At a season when the providence of God has manifested itself in the visitation of a fearful @ @ @ @ @ @ @ land , it is fitting that a people whose reliance has ever been in His protection should humble themselves before His throne , and , while acknowledging past transgressions , ask a continuance of the Divine mercy.

When faced with hardship, Americans have a history of coming together and crying out to God.
This morning I read an article in TheTrumpet.com that recorded numerous occasions of prevailing prayer over American calamities:
At the start of the American Revolutionary War, the Continental Congress declared: “Congress … considering the present critical, alarming and calamitous state … do earnestly recommend, that Thursday, the 20th of July next, be observed by the inhabitants of all the English colonies on this continent, as a Day of Public Humiliation, Fasting and Prayer, that we may with united hearts and voices, unfeignedly confess and deplore our many sins and offer up our joint supplications to the all-wise, omnipotent and merciful disposer of all events, humbly beseeching Him to forgive our iniquities.”
Our novice American patriots went on to win a miraculous victory in the war for independence against the greatest empire in the world.

“It is therefore earnestly recommended that the first Friday in August be observed throughout the United States as a Day of Fasting, Humiliation, and Prayer…to implore the Almighty in His own good time to stay the destroying hand which is now lifted up against us.”

thewashingtonstandard--2020-03-19--Joe Biden & The Democrat Party’s Incestuous Relationship With China

This needs to be the major theme of the upcoming presidential campaign .
The Trump campaign must hit Biden hard for his shameful record of appeasing China , which includes voting against all legislation to tackle China ’ s expansionist policies , and its unfair trade practices , and its intellectual property theft , all of which have decimated America ’ s manufacturing sector .
In fact , Biden still continues to dismiss China as a threat to the United States .
Shortly after announcing his candidacy for president , Biden sneered : “ China is going to eat our @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ’ t even figure out how to deal with the corruption that exists within the system .
I mean , you know , they ’ re not bad folks , folks .
But guess what , they ’ re not competition for us.
” Really Joe ?
Tell that to the millions of Americans who lost their high paying manufacturing jobs to China .
Tell that to the many in America ’ s intelligence community , who now believe that China is the greatest threat to the United States .
Tell that to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ China as an “ economic predator ” who is “ undergoing the most rapid military expansion of any nation in the world.
” Joe Biden ’ s dangerous view of China should terrify every rational American .
Joe Biden must never be elected president of the United States .
Joe Biden and the Democrat Party ’ s Incestuous Relationship with China Desperation has set in among the Politburo in China as their deliberate mishandling and obfuscation of the Chinese Coronavirus outbreak has threatened , and in all likelihood derailed , their grandiose plans @ @ @ @ @ @ @ only be described as one of the most ham-handed propaganda efforts in recent memory , China is now trying to deflect blame onto the United States for the Coronavirus outbreak that has been recently categorized as a global pandemic .
Further , they are unabashedly claiming that any criticism of their “ valiant ” efforts to stem the spread of the virus or using the nomenclature of Wuhan Virus or Chinese Coronavirus is racist and xenophobic .
While their attempt to implicate the United States may appear on the surface to be absurd @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it will fall on fertile ground previously tilled and seeded over the past 25 years with vast amounts of money and investments .
An end-product of China ’ s infiltration of the American media and education establishment is the almost immediate regurgitation of China ’ s racist and xenophobic argument by the American mainstream media and the predominantly left-wing professional class .
Hollywood and the entertainment cabal , already awash in Chinese capital and desperate for access to the Chinese market , has refused to criticize China ’ s handling of the Coronavirus @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is almost a certainty that when the pandemic recedes there will be nothing produced that is even remotely critical of China .
The European Union is now China ’ s largest trading partner and investor .
They are beginning to exert increasing influence in nations such as Italy and throughout the continent .
Which is why the European Union refused to initiate a travel ban from China during the entirety of the Coronavirus outbreak , leading to Europe now being the global epicenter of the pandemic as well as the source of the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ States .
WITH THIS OVERALL BACKDROP THE CHINESE LEADERSHIP IS CONFIDENT THAT THEIR NEAR CLOWNISH PROPAGANDA EFFORTS WILL SUCCEED .
THEIR ONLY OBSTACLE IS THE RE-ELECTION OF PRESIDENT TRUMP , WHO IS THE ONLY WORLD LEADER IN THE PAST 25 YEARS TO UNDERSTAND WHAT ANIMATES THE CHINESE AND TO STAND UP TO THEIR INTIMIDATION TACTICS .
The establishment of the Democrat Party believes they have a solution to that obstacle in what appears to be the inevitable nomination of Joe Biden .
Joe Biden , in his days in the Senate , was @ @ @ @ @ @ @ voted against all legislation aimed at curtailing China ’ s ambitions .
In 2007 he opposed the idea of applying any tariffs on China despite their obvious unfair trade practices and theft of proprietary technology that was causing the loss of millions of American manufacturing jobs .
America ’ s dependence on a communist regime for materials and goods , such as pharmaceuticals , continued to grow unabated .
However , it was as Vice President that he became wholly enamored with the country and its leadership .
For example , while in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 2011 , approved of and defended China ’ s grotesque one-child policy , which brutally used forced abortions to implement the law .
( In that same year Biden was given the assignment , by Barack Obama , to be the point man on China due his close personal relationship with Xi Jinping , currently President and General Secretary of the Chinese Communist Party .
Joe Biden never missed an opportunity to downplay China ’ s threat to the United States .
In May of 2013 , in a commencement speech he assured @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to eat our lunch ” that they had nothing to be concerned about as China had immense problems and an inability to think differently .
In May of 2014 Biden described China as a nation incapable of producing innovative products and ideas .
Two weeks after declaring his 2020 candidacy , Biden , in Iowa , said , “ China is going to eat our lunch ?
Come on , man…they can ’ t even figure out how to deal with the corruption that exists within the system .
I mean , you @ @ @ @ @ @ @ folks , folks .
But guess what , they ’ re not competition for us.
” In December 2013 , Biden flew to Beijing on Air Force Two with his son Hunter on an official trip , ostensibly to discuss tensions over disputed territories in the East China Sea .
Joe and Hunter were ushered into a red-carpet meeting with a delegation of various Chinese officials .
Hunter remained with the delegation while his father met with President Xi Jinping .
During these meetings Joe Biden struck an extremely conciliatory and friendly tone @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the dismay of America ’ s allies in the region .
Ten day later , Hunter ’ s two-year-old company , Rosemont Seneca , signed an exclusive $ 1 Billion ( later expanded to $ 1.5 Billion ) deal with the state-owned Bank of China , creating an investment fund called Bohai Harvest , with money guaranteed by the Chinese Government .
As Peter Schweizer , who was the first to unveil these conflicts of interest , wrote in his book Secret Empires “ the Chinese Government was literally funding a business that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ one of America ’ s most powerful decision makers ” That is what it looks like to be “ compromised by a foreign power.

This needs to be the major theme of the upcoming presidential campaign. The Trump campaign must hit Biden hard for his shameful record of appeasing China, which includes voting against all legislation to tackle China’s expansionist policies, and its unfair trade practices, and its intellectual property theft, all of which have decimated America’s manufacturing sector. In fact, Biden still continues to dismiss China as a threat to the United States.
Shortly after announcing his candidacy for president, Biden sneered: “China is going to eat our lunch? Come on, man…they can’t even figure out how to deal with the corruption that exists within the system. I mean, you know, they’re not bad folks, folks. But guess what, they’re not competition for us.” Really Joe? Tell that to the millions of Americans who lost their high paying manufacturing jobs to China. Tell that to the many in America’s intelligence community, who now believe that China is the greatest threat to the United States. Tell that to General Keane, who has referred to China as an “economic predator” who is “undergoing the most rapid military expansion of any nation in the world.”
Joe Biden’s dangerous view of China should terrify every rational American. Joe Biden must never be elected president of the United States.
Joe Biden and the Democrat Party’s Incestuous Relationship with China
By American Thinker, March 18th, 2020:
Desperation has set in among the Politburo in China as their deliberate mishandling and obfuscation of the Chinese Coronavirus outbreak has threatened, and in all likelihood derailed, their grandiose plans for global hegemony. In what can only be described as one of the most ham-handed propaganda efforts in recent memory, China is now trying to deflect blame onto the United States for the Coronavirus outbreak that has been recently categorized as a global pandemic. Further, they are unabashedly claiming that any criticism of their “valiant” efforts to stem the spread of the virus or using the nomenclature of Wuhan Virus or Chinese Coronavirus is racist and xenophobic.
While their attempt to implicate the United States may appear on the surface to be absurd, the reality is that much of it will fall on fertile ground previously tilled and seeded over the past 25 years with vast amounts of money and investments.
An end-product of China’s infiltration of the American media and education establishment is the almost immediate regurgitation of China’s racist and xenophobic argument by the American mainstream media and the predominantly left-wing professional class. Hollywood and the entertainment cabal, already awash in Chinese capital and desperate for access to the Chinese market, has refused to criticize China’s handling of the Coronavirus focusing instead on President Trump. It is almost a certainty that when the pandemic recedes there will be nothing produced that is even remotely critical of China.
The European Union is now China’s largest trading partner and investor. They are beginning to exert increasing influence in nations such as Italy and throughout the continent. Which is why the European Union refused to initiate a travel ban from China during the entirety of the Coronavirus outbreak, leading to Europe now being the global epicenter of the pandemic as well as the source of the bulk of the infections in the United States.
WITH THIS OVERALL BACKDROP THE CHINESE LEADERSHIP IS CONFIDENT THAT THEIR NEAR CLOWNISH PROPAGANDA EFFORTS WILL SUCCEED. THEIR ONLY OBSTACLE IS THE RE-ELECTION OF PRESIDENT TRUMP, WHO IS THE ONLY WORLD LEADER IN THE PAST 25 YEARS TO UNDERSTAND WHAT ANIMATES THE CHINESE AND TO STAND UP TO THEIR INTIMIDATION TACTICS.
The establishment of the Democrat Party believes they have a solution to that obstacle in what appears to be the inevitable nomination of Joe Biden.
Joe Biden, in his days in the Senate, was very partial to China, as he voted against all legislation aimed at curtailing China’s ambitions. In 2007 he opposed the idea of applying any tariffs on China despite their obvious unfair trade practices and theft of proprietary technology that was causing the loss of millions of American manufacturing jobs. America’s dependence on a communist regime for materials and goods, such as pharmaceuticals, continued to grow unabated. However, it was as Vice President that he became wholly enamored with the country and its leadership.
For example, while in China, Biden, in August of 2011, approved of and defended China’s grotesque one-child policy, which brutally used forced abortions to implement the law. (In that same year Biden was given the assignment, by Barack Obama, to be the point man on China due his close personal relationship with Xi Jinping, currently President and General Secretary of the Chinese Communist Party.
Joe Biden never missed an opportunity to downplay China’s threat to the United States. In May of 2013, in a commencement speech he assured those concerned the Chinese are “going to eat our lunch” that they had nothing to be concerned about as China had immense problems and an inability to think differently. In May of 2014 Biden described China as a nation incapable of producing innovative products and ideas. Two weeks after declaring his 2020 candidacy, Biden, in Iowa, said,
“China is going to eat our lunch? Come on, man…they can’t even figure out how to deal with the corruption that exists within the system. I mean, you know, they’re not bad folks, folks. But guess what, they’re not competition for us.”
In December 2013, Biden flew to Beijing on Air Force Two with his son Hunter on an official trip, ostensibly to discuss tensions over disputed territories in the East China Sea. Joe and Hunter were ushered into a red-carpet meeting with a delegation of various Chinese officials. Hunter remained with the delegation while his father met with President Xi Jinping. During these meetings Joe Biden struck an extremely conciliatory and friendly tone with the Chinese leadership — much to the dismay of America’s allies in the region.
Ten day later, Hunter’s two-year-old company, Rosemont Seneca, signed an exclusive $1 Billion (later expanded to $1.5 Billion) deal with the state-owned Bank of China, creating an investment fund called Bohai Harvest, with money guaranteed by the Chinese Government. As Peter Schweizer, who was the first to unveil these conflicts of interest, wrote in his book Secret Empires “the Chinese Government was literally funding a business that it co-owned along with the son of one of America’s most powerful decision makers” That is what it looks like to be “compromised by a foreign power.”
Anyone who has dealt with the Chinese Government or an entity controlled by the government can attest that any foreign business transaction with China always has a requisite or implied quid pro quo that oftentimes does not involve monetary considerations. Once entangled in this web it is nearly impossible to escape — as many businesses and nations, throughout Africa and Europe, much to their chagrin, have experienced. It would be naïve to believe that Joe Biden is not embroiled in this labyrinth of expectations and demands.

Make no mistake, things will get much worse before they start to get better. But it is not all doom and gloom. There are things you can do in your local community and around the world to help those affected by these dark times..
Help those affected by the recent closures
Monday marked a day in this country which has never happened. From coast to coast millions of workers simultaneously found out that they will not have jobs the next day. The impact was so large that it overwhelmed unemployment websites, causing them to crash. The coronavirus measures could impact these people in extreme ways and for months to come.
Some dine-in restaurants are allowed to stay open during these times to serve take-out meals. If you are still able to freely travel in your town, you should consider visiting some of these places if you can afford it and tipping well as the $2.13 an hour wage is not sustainable.
If you know others affected by this shutdown, consider helping them out with food or donations or work, if you have it. Another way to help is to buy gift cards to your favorite local restaurants, stores, from your hair stylist and local spa. The business will get the money today, but you can use it later. Pay in cash, if possible, to avoid further lag time.
If you are one of the folks affected by these closures, check your state’s guidelines as some of them are already rolling out measures to support you.
Also, it is estimated that roughly 40 percent of the medical workforce is affected by the closure of schools. If you can watch a healthcare worker’s child so they can get back to helping countless other sick people, this effort will prove to make a massive difference.
Run errands for those who cannot leave their homes
As the virus continues to spread, there will be more and more people who are quarantined in their homes. The panic from self-quarantine has already caused runs on grocery stores as well as the idiotic hoarding of toilet paper. Many of these folks who are now quarantined may not have had time to get supplies before they were unable to leave their homes. You can help them.
Kelly Arsenault, in Knoxville, TN is providing an inspiring example of how this can look in your community. She started a “Kindness Committee” to help those who cannot leave their homes.
If your neighborhood doesn’t have one, it is as simple as creating a form on Google. Arsenault’s neighbor created a form that allows homeowners in the neighborhood to volunteer help. Then, those who are in need can request it.

Donate blood
As Town and Country points out, the Red Cross is concerned that coronavirus will threaten America’s blood supply. As more people contract the virus, fewer people will be eligible to donate blood. The organization asks healthy people to donate blood despite the pandemic, and emphasizes that there is no evidence that COVID-19 can be contracted through blood.
More and more people are cancelling their blood donation appointments, which could cause bigger problems in the future. The Red Cross emphasized that they are being meticulous to prevent spread during donations and keep everyone safe.

Help keep your neighbors from going hungry
Grocery stores across the country have seen a recent spike in panic buying. Empty shelves are now commonplace in every city in America. Those who can afford it have been stocking up. But what about those who can’t?
Many municipalities have Meals on Wheels organizations that are set up to safely deliver food to senior citizens who are unable to leave their homes.

Meals on Wheels is not your only option either. If you have food to give, seek out your local food bank and consider donating. Many food banks also accept cash if you want to hold on to your non-perishable items.
GoFundMe
If none of the above options are available, or if you are looking to give further, GoFundMe has set up a general fund to support individuals affected by the coronavirus pandemic, as well as the organizations working to keep people safe, find a cure, or support their communities.
Funds raised on this campaign will be managed by GoFundMe.Org, an independent non-profit organization registered in the United States. Donors support the GoFundMe.Org fund and GoFundMe.Org selects and then distributes donations to verified GoFundMe campaigns and aid to organizations that help those affected.
You can find that donation link, here.
It is important to remain vigilant during these uncertain times. We have only seen a glimpse of what a little panic can do with this toilet paper debacle. Imagine how that scene will look when it’s food people are fighting over. By coming together and helping our fellow humans, we can come out on the other end of this with dignity and honor instead of despotism and chaos. That choice is up to us. What will you choose?

Over the last few years , I ’ ve heard more and more casual acquaintances complain that they no longer have any idea of where to go to for reporting they can actually believe .

I. REVOLUTIONARY SOCIALISM- (Militant Marxism has been largely transformed into Cultural Marxism by the FRANKFURT SCHOOL)
The Architects of Western Decline: A Study on the Frankfurt School and Cultural Marxism- Max Horkheimer, director of the Frankfurt School in 1930 wrote,“The Revolution won’t happen with guns, rather it will happen incrementally, year by year, generation by generation. We will gradually infiltrate their educational institutions and their political offices, transforming them slowly into Marxist entities as we move towards universal egalitarianism.”
[
This is a summary study of the Frankfurt School and Cultural Marxist philosophy which now largely controls much of Western intellectualism, politics, and culture.
It was by design; it was created by an internationalist intelligentsia to eradicate Western values, social systems, and European racial groups in a pre-emptive attempt to spark global, communist (think liberal-left) revolution.
One of the most subversive and successful ideological change agents of the 20th Century working in mutually re-enforcing tandem with other inter-connected organizational thrusts.

Sens. Dianne Feinstein and Jim Inhofe sold as much as $6.4 million worth of stock in the weeks before panic about the coronavirus sparked a worldwide selloff, according to disclosure filings first reported by the New York Times.
The additional revelations came amid widespread outrage toward GOP Sens. Richard Burr and Kelly Loeffler, who reportedly sold shares after getting briefings on the coronavirus threat.
Feinstein, a California Democrat, sold $500,001 to $1 million worth of stock in a company called Allogene Therapeutics on Jan. 31, less than a month before panic about the virus caused markets to plunge, Senate records show. Her husband sold $1,000,001 to $5 million worth of Allogene shares on Feb. 18, according to financial disclosures.
And Inhofe, an Oklahoma Republican, dumped as much as $400,000 worth of stock on Jan. 27, records show. He sold shares in five different companies including Apple, PayPal and Brookfield Asset Management, according to a disclosure report.
Feinstein spokesman Tom Mentzer said her husband made the transactions, not the senator herself.
Right, does it really matter? They are married and is anyone going to buy the fact that this corrupt old woman didn’t know about it?

This is a ridiculous and baseless attack. I do not make investment decisions for my portfolio. Investment decisions are made by multiple third-party advisors without my or my husband's knowledge or involvement. — Senator Kelly Loeffler (@SenatorLoeffler) March 20, 2020
