We find that some topics have a habit of recurring mostly because they never get quite settled, at least not to everyone’s satisfaction. At the time however triumph is declared as we enter a new era until reality intervenes, often quite quickly. So last night’s Franco-German announcement after a virtual summit caught the newswires.
France and Germany are proposing a €500bn ($545bn; £448bn) European recovery fund to be distributed to EU countries worst affected by Covid-19. In talks on Monday, French President Emmanuel Macron and German Chancellor Angela Merkel agreed that the funds should be provided as grants. The proposal represents a significant shift in Mrs Merkel’s position. Mr Macron said it was a major step forward and was “what the eurozone needs to remain united”. ( BBC)
Okay and there was also this reported by the BBC.
Mrs Merkel, who had previously rejected the idea of nations sharing debt, said the European Commission would raise money for the fund by borrowing on the markets, which would be repaid gradually from the EU’s overall budget.
There are a couple of familiar features here as we see politicians wanted to spend now and have future politicians ( i.e not them face the issues of paying for it). There is an undercut right now in that the choice of Frau Merkel reminds those of us who follow bond markets that Germany is being paid to borrow with even its thirty-year yield being -0.05%. So in essence the other countries want a slice of that pie as opposed to hearing this from Germany.
Money, it’s a crime
Share it fairly but don’t take a slice of my pie
Money, so they say
Is the root of all evil today
But if you ask for a raise it’s no surprise that they’re
Giving none away, away, away ( Pink Floyd)
Actually France is often paid to borrow as well ( ten-year yield is -0.04%) but even it must be looking rather jealously at Germany.Here is how Katya Adler of the BBC summarised its significance.
Chancellor Merkel has conceded a lot. She openly agreed with the French that any money from this fund, allocated to a needy EU country, should be a grant, not a loan. Importantly, this means not increasing the debts of economies already weak before the pandemic. President Macron gave ground, too. He had wanted a huge fund of a trillion or more euros. But a trillion euros of grants was probably too much for Mrs Merkel to swallow on behalf of fellow German taxpayers.
She has made a technical error, however, as Eurostat tends to allocate such borrowing to each country on the grounds of its ECB capital share. So lower borrowing for say Italy but not necessarily zero.
The ECB
Its President Christine Lagarde was quickly in the press.
So there is zero risk to the euro? Yes. And I would remind you that the euro is irreversible, it’s written in the EU Treaty.
Of course history is a long list of treaties which have been reversed. Also there was the standard tactic when challenged on debt which is whataboutery.
Every country in the world is seeing its debt level increase – according to the IMF’s projections, the debt level of the United States will reach more than 130% of GDP by the end of this year, while the euro area’s debt will be below 100% of GDP.
Actually by trying to be clever there, she has stepped on something of a land mine. Let me hand you over to the French Finance Minister.
French Finance Minister Bruno Le Maire said on Tuesday, the European Union (EU) recovery fund probably will not be available until 2021. The 500 bln euro recovery fund idea is a historic step because it finances budget spending through debt, he added. ( FXStreet )
So the height of the pandemic and the economic collapse will be over before it starts? That is an issue which has dogged the Euro area response to not only this crisis but the Greek and wider Euro area one too. It is very slow moving and in the case of Greece by the time it upped its game we had seen the claimed 2% per annum economic growth morph into around a 10% decline meaning the boat had sailed. In economic policy there is always the issue of timing and in this instance whatever you think of the details of US policy for instance it has got on with it quickly which matters in a crisis.

Speaking of shooting yourself in the foot there was also this.
Growth levels and prevailing interest rates should be taken into account, as these are the two key elements.
The latter is true and as I pointed out earlier is a strength for many Euro area countries but the former has been quite a problem. Unless we see a marked change we can only expect the same poor to average performance going ahead. Mind you we did see a hint that her predecessor had played something of a Jedi Mind Trick on financial markets.
Outright Monetary Transactions, or OMTs, are an important instrument in the European toolbox, but they were designed for the 2011-12 crisis, which was very different from this one. I don’t think it is the tool that would be best suited to tackling the economic consequences of the public health crisis created by COVID-19.
They had success without ever being used.
Market Response
Things have gone rather well so far. The Euro has rallied versus the US Dollar towards 1.10 although it has dipped against the UK Pound. Bond markets are more clear cut with the Italian bond future rising over a point and a half to above 140 reducing its ten-year yield to 1.62%. The ten-year yield in Spain has fallen to 0.7% as well. It seems a bit harsh to include Spain after the economic growth spurt we have seen but nonetheless maybe it did not reach escape velocity.
Comment
Actually there already are some Eurobonds in that the ESM ( European Stability Mechanism) has issued bonds in the assistance programmes for Greece, Italy, Portugal and Spain. Although they were secondary market moves mostly allowing countries to borrow more cheaply rather than spend more. On that subject I guess life can sometimes come at you fast as how is this going?
Taking into account these measures, the
government remains committed to meeting the
primary fiscal surplus for 2020 and forecasts a
primary surplus at 3.6% of GDP ( Greece Debt Office)
On the other side of the coin it will be grateful for this.
81% of the debt stock is held by official sector creditors,
allowing for long term maturity profile and low interest
rates
On a Greek style scale the 500 billion Euros is significant but now we switch to Italy we see that suddenly the same sum of money shrinks a lot. I notice that Five Star ( political party not the band) have already been on the case.
It’s just too little, too late
A little too long
And I can’t wait ( JoJo)
This brings me to the two real issues here of which the first is generic. In its history fiscal policy finds that it can not respond quickly enough which is why the “first responder” is monetary policy. The problem is that the ECB has done this so much it is struggling to do much more and the European Union is always slow to use fiscal policy. Such as it has then the use has been in the other direction via the Stability and Growth Pact.
Next comes the fact that there are 19 national treasuries to deal with for the Euro and 27 for the European Union as I note that last night’s deal was between only 2 of them. Perhaps the most important ones but only 2.

investmentwatchblog--2020-05-20--The Conman Elites That Want To “Save Us” From The Coronavirus

Last week the Federal Reserve released a report predicting that the next print on GDP numbers will likely show a loss 34.9 % in the second quarter .
This is the biggest GDP plunge since the Great Depression ; even the crash of 2008 doesn ’ t compare .
And when we take into account the fact that the Fed artificially boosts GDP calculations by adding in many non-productive government programs , we have to ask , what are the REAL losses above and beyond what the Fed admits to ?
With the supply chain in disarray , many companies @ @ @ @ @ @ @ shift their manufacturing base to dodge the pandemic .
Of course , none of them want to bring factories back to the US ; there ’ s simply no incentive to do so .
And , the small business sector has been crushed by the shutdowns , with the vast majority of those seeking bailout loans still waiting for aid and over 20.5 million employees laid off in April alone .
Needless to say , the economy has been severely affected .
The problem is that many people are being led to believe @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the virus outbreak alone .
This is a lie .
As I noted back in February in my article ‘ Global Centralization Is The Cause Of The Crisis – Not The Cure ’ , the collapse of the Everything Bubble was well underway long before the pandemic .
The crash was started by the Federal Reserve hiking rates into economic weakness at the end of 2018 , puncturing the bubble and setting the liquidity crisis in motion .
The pandemic is just the icing on the cake of a collapse that was going @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a convenient scapegoat , because now the banking elites are going to escape all the blame for the crash and the public is going to hyperfocus on the coronavirus as the culprit .
As I also warned would happen over the past few months , the Chinese government has been caught in numerous lies surrounding their response to the outbreak , including hiding the true numbers of dead and infected and suppressing information to the rest of the world on the danger of human-to-human transmission .
The problem that the public is still @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is that the Chinese did not act alone , they had help .
It takes two sides to do the pandemic tango – If air travel had been cut off from China immediately upon the confirmation of the virus spread until the danger could be assessed , the outbreak may have never carried beyond China ’ s borders .
Yet this did not happen .
Air travel remained open for weeks from China after the outbreak confirmation .
Then , when the virus hit Italy hard , air travel continued from Europe to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ as if the establishment WANTED the virus to spread quickly… I remember some of the idiotic sentiments being passed around in web forums back in January and February .
Some people argued that the virus “ only infects Asians ” .
Some people said sarcastically “ Oh no , whatever will we do without our new i-Phones… !
” .
And , yet others , including the Trump Administration , argued that the US economy would escape any real harm .
Well , we are a few months into the outbreak and now @ @ @ @ @ @ @ infections in the world .
US deaths are already almost triple that of the CDC ’ s yearly reported 30,000 deaths for the flu .
The virus is no Black Plague , but it ’ s not something to be shrugged off either .
If this virus behaves anything like the pandemics of the past , expect it to linger for a couple of years , not just a few months .
The lockdowns actually guarantee that this situation will drag on for quite some time .
Apple i-Phone sales have crashed 77 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ almost every other sector of the economy .
Clearly , the Trump Administration and Larry Kudlow were either lying to us in February , or they had no idea what they were talking about .
Despite the current reopening hype , the situation is only going to get worse from here on out .
Certainly in terms of the economy , but also in terms of the outbreak .
The globalists have openly discussed their plans for this pandemic , including a minimum 18 month period of lockdowns and “ reopenings ” .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ the fact that the plan is for a “ 1 month open , 2 months closed ” cycle going into next year .
That ’ s right , the lockdowns will return .
Certain globalists have slithered out of the swamp to the forefront of media attention recently , and it is interesting to see how transparent the narrative has become .
As I have predicted time and time again , during the collapse the very people that helped create the crisis are now suddenly being put on a pedestal by the media @ @ @ @ @ @ @ presented as “ rebels ” on the side of conservatives .
Here are just a few global elites that have been specifically prominent during this disaster .
Wow , I ’ m getting incredibly sick of seeing Bill Gates being presented in the media lately as some kind of virology guru .
Why should we take the advice of a computer programmer on issues of biology and sociopolitical response ?
Why should we take the advice of an open globalist with an admitted agenda of population control ?
Bill Gates is notorious for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ such as his Ted Talks .
In 2010 Gates called for carbon emissions to be reduced to zero ( an impossibility without complete de-industrialization and the economic murder of billions of people ) .
In the same talk , he hinted that methods to reduce the population could include “ new vaccines and reproductive health services… ” He did not elaborate at the time , except to claim that vaccines would lead to “ social changes ” that would reduce population .
Aren ’ t vaccines supposed to extend people ’ s lives @ @ @ @ @ @ @ do know that Bill Gates has funded numerous experimental vaccine trials through the World Health Organization , including Polio vaccination programs .
It was these same programs that led to viral outbreaks of polio in various countries and hundreds of paralyzed children .
In fact , the vaccines caused more cases of polio than the wild-type virus .
This if VERIFIED FACT , admitted by the WHO , though numerous leftist media sources have tried to deny it .
At most , the WHO and Gates can claim that the infections were “ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the case , it would still suggest that vaccines developed by Gates Foundation programs and the WHO should not be trusted .
Given Gates ’ obsession with depopulation , I think it safer to not allow him to inject viruses ( living or dead ) into people .
The Gates Foundation was also central in Event 201 , a pandemic exercise which “ simulated ” a coronavirus outbreak and the government and UN response .
This exercise took place only a couple of months before the real thing happened .
What an incredible @ @ @ @ @ @ @ coincidence that almost every solution presented in the simulation is now being implemented or suggested around the world during the real pandemic , including the use of tracking apps and immunity passports that violate every level of personal freedom we know .
Gates is not a hero , far from it .
In fact , Gates and his ideology benefit greatly from the pandemic .
A dedicated globalist , El-Erian has been everywhere in the economic media lately .
As I examined in my Globalist Disinformation Spotlight article , El-Erian is an active @ @ @ @ @ @ @ control of the IMF though its Special Drawing Rights basket .
He also argued last year that economic swings were “ out of the control of central banks ” and that they should not be blamed for any financial disruptions .
At the same time , El-Erian claimed that the US economy was “ strong ” and that there was no chance of recession in 2020 .
El-Erian was consistently wrong about almost everything last year , but this year , suddenly , he has been the go-to guy for the economic media @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 2020 , flip-flopping on his outlook and presenting , finally , a realistic analysis of the situation .
He is now being presented as the wise man on the mountain warning us of impending disaster .
This is a classic case of the globalist “ savior ” narrative in play .
They lie about the danger of collapse right up until the collapse becomes obvious to the public , and then they suddenly start warning of the collapse when it is too late for the public to do anything about it .
That @ @ @ @ @ @ @ public prepared and complacent for as long as possible , then act like they predicted the whole mess at the last minute .
The great fake liberty billionaire .
A long time globalist , Musk seems like an enigma , but he is really rather simple .
As a classic narcissist , Musk switches his persona to ride what he sees as the waves of public sentiment .
He wants to be all things to all people and has bought into his own hype .
A couple of years ago Musk was a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the Global Government Summit , a proponent of universal basic income , and argued in favor of transhumanism .
Musk ’ s companies are lavished with praise in the media despite their minimal global market share .
Being one of the only carmakers in the US does mean Tesla is one of the “ biggest ” in the US , I suppose ( but how often do you actually see a Tesla on the road outside of California ? )
.
The problem is Musk survives predominantly by siphoning up billions in government @ @ @ @ @ @ @ funding , Musk would have been out of business a long time ago .
This fact runs contrary to Musk ’ s new persona as a kind of libertarian , small government businessman .
Also keep in mind that Musk ’ s business model relies on global warming propaganda flowing out of the same elitist circles he enjoys when he ’ s not “ speaking out ” about government tyranny .
If carbon controls are not enforced by governments ( and if gas prices stay low ) , Musk ’ s high-priced electric @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ’ s companies live primarily on government welfare , the guy acts like he ’ s some kind of savant , and he has a lot of people fooled on this account on both sides of the political spectrum .
It is truly astounding .
If he is a “ genius ” at anything , it is that he is an effective con man .
For now , Musk is attempting to hook into the alternative media and the rise of the liberty movement with his anti-lockdown tweets and sudden opposition to globalism @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ” ?
I suspect he will flip-flop again in due course .
If Musk wants to cut off all ties to his many friends in the globalist community then perhaps he has turned a new leaf , but I seriously doubt it .
One of the people that helped create the coronvirus outbreak is the leading Trump Administration talking head on the coronavirus response .
An avid defender of the WHO and , along with Trump , a defender of China ’ s rigged data back in January , Fauci is the guy @ @ @ @ @ @ @ millions of dollars in funding on coronavirus research at the Level 4 lab in Wuhan , China .
This is the same lab that is now under investigation for releasing the virus on the world , and Fauci ’ s funding went directly into research on coronavirus transmission from bats to other mammals .
All I have to ask is , why has this man been at the forefront of the pandemic response for the US ?
Now in self isolation for possible infection , perhaps Fauci will fade into the background as @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in the creation of this pandemic .
Thunburg is not so much a global elite as she is a useful idiot .
A puppet of her activist parents , Thunburg only parrots the same global warming arguments that have already been debunked year after year , yet she continues to be elevated in the mainstream media as a spokesgirl for environmentalism .
Why ?
Because the “ children are our future ” , and leftists love the idea of brainwashed kid activists .
If Thunburg is any indication of the next generation , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is still zero concrete evidence that human carbon emissions lead directly to changes in the Earth ’ s climate , it is true that the climate does “ change ” over time .
Of course , shifts in activity on the gigantic nuclear fusion reactor in space known as THE SUN are probably more responsible for temperature changes on the Earth than the tiny 0.04 % of carbon in the Earth ’ s atmosphere .
Don ’ t tell the political left this , though , or you might be labeled a “ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ climate activists have suddenly been pushed to the forefront recently to comment on the pandemic situation .
This might seem rather bizarre , but it makes sense when you realize how the pandemic is being exploited by the globalists to achieve certain goals .
Every agenda of the globalists from carbon emissions reductions to the suppression of industrial manufacturing to the destruction of large scale farming and even to the reduction of meat in people ’ s diets is being accomplished right now by the coronavirus and the government shutdowns .
Where climate @ @ @ @ @ @ @ headway .
Beyond that , climate activists are now arguing that the restrictions put in place because of the pandemic should be KEPT IN PLACE because of global warming .
You see how that works ?
One has nothing to do with the other , but the technocrats will force the public to see them as related if they can .
Just “ listen to the scientists ” , people !
Listen and obey the high priests of the technotronic era .
Stop demanding evidence , you aren ’ t “ smart enough @ @ @ @ @ @ @ UN funded labs have the power to decipher the magical math behind global warming studies .
The pandemic will open the door to many lies and the flood of disinformation the alternative media has been working so hard to counter is going to explode beyond anything we ’ ve seen in the past .
The elites are at a crossroads .
They have to turn the public towards supporting collectivism and tyranny now , or they may find themselves facing the business end of a large number of torches and pitchforks .
At @ @ @ @ @ @ @ prison , not on TV dictating to the people about how they should behave and what freedoms they should give up during the crisis .

In the same talk, he hinted that methods to reduce the population could include “new vaccines and reproductive health services…” He did not elaborate at the time, except to claim that vaccines would lead to “social changes” that would reduce population. Aren’t vaccines supposed to extend people’s lives, thus increasing the population?
We do know that Bill Gates has funded numerous experimental vaccine trials through the World Health Organization, including Polio vaccination programs. It was these same programs that led to viral outbreaks of polio in various countries and hundreds of paralyzed children. In fact, the vaccines caused more cases of polio than the wild-type virus. This if VERIFIED FACT, admitted by the WHO, though numerous leftist media sources have tried to deny it.
At most, the WHO and Gates can claim that the infections were “accidental”. But if this is the case, it would still suggest that vaccines developed by Gates Foundation programs and the WHO should not be trusted. Given Gates’ obsession with depopulation, I think it safer to not allow him to inject viruses (living or dead) into people.
The Gates Foundation was also central in Event 201, a pandemic exercise which “simulated” a coronavirus outbreak and the government and UN response. This exercise took place only a couple of months before the real thing happened. What an incredible coincidence. It is also an incredible coincidence that almost every solution presented in the simulation is now being implemented or suggested around the world during the real pandemic, including the use of tracking apps and immunity passports that violate every level of personal freedom we know.
Gates is not a hero, far from it. In fact, Gates and his ideology benefit greatly from the pandemic.

Mohamed El-Erian
A dedicated globalist, El-Erian has been everywhere in the economic media lately. As I examined in my Globalist Disinformation Spotlight article, El-Erian is an active promoter of a global currency under the control of the IMF though its Special Drawing Rights basket. He also argued last year that economic swings were “out of the control of central banks” and that they should not be blamed for any financial disruptions. At the same time, El-Erian claimed that the US economy was “strong” and that there was no chance of recession in 2020.
El-Erian was consistently wrong about almost everything last year, but this year, suddenly, he has been the go-to guy for the economic media. Mohamed has shifted gears entirely in 2020, flip-flopping on his outlook and presenting, finally, a realistic analysis of the situation. He is now being presented as the wise man on the mountain warning us of impending disaster. This is a classic case of the globalist “savior” narrative in play. They lie about the danger of collapse right up until the collapse becomes obvious to the public, and then they suddenly start warning of the collapse when it is too late for the public to do anything about it. That is to say, they keep the public prepared and complacent for as long as possible, then act like they predicted the whole mess at the last minute.
Elon Musk
The great fake liberty billionaire. A long time globalist, Musk seems like an enigma, but he is really rather simple. As a classic narcissist, Musk switches his persona to ride what he sees as the waves of public sentiment. He wants to be all things to all people and has bought into his own hype. A couple of years ago Musk was a globalist gatekeeper, a top guest of the Global Government Summit, a proponent of universal basic income, and argued in favor of transhumanism.
Musk’s companies are lavished with praise in the media despite their minimal global market share. Being one of the only carmakers in the US does mean Tesla is one of the “biggest” in the US, I suppose (but how often do you actually see a Tesla on the road outside of California?). The problem is Musk survives predominantly by siphoning up billions in government funding and taxpayer dollars. Without such funding, Musk would have been out of business a long time ago. This fact runs contrary to Musk’s new persona as a kind of libertarian, small government businessman.
Also keep in mind that Musk’s business model relies on global warming propaganda flowing out of the same elitist circles he enjoys when he’s not “speaking out” about government tyranny. If carbon controls are not enforced by governments (and if gas prices stay low), Musk’s high-priced electric cars have no market.
While Musk’s companies live primarily on government welfare, the guy acts like he’s some kind of savant, and he has a lot of people fooled on this account on both sides of the political spectrum. It is truly astounding. If he is a “genius” at anything, it is that he is an effective con man.
For now, Musk is attempting to hook into the alternative media and the rise of the liberty movement with his anti-lockdown tweets and sudden opposition to globalism. Has Musk been “red pilled”? I suspect he will flip-flop again in due course. If Musk wants to cut off all ties to his many friends in the globalist community then perhaps he has turned a new leaf, but I seriously doubt it.
Dr. Anthony Fauci
One of the people that helped create the coronvirus outbreak is the leading Trump Administration talking head on the coronavirus response. An avid defender of the WHO and, along with Trump, a defender of China’s rigged data back in January, Fauci is the guy who, in 2015, greenlit the millions of dollars in funding on coronavirus research at the Level 4 lab in Wuhan, China. This is the same lab that is now under investigation for releasing the virus on the world, and Fauci’s funding went directly into research on coronavirus transmission from bats to other mammals.
All I have to ask is, why has this man been at the forefront of the pandemic response for the US? Now in self isolation for possible infection, perhaps Fauci will fade into the background as he is further exposed as a participant in the creation of this pandemic.
Greta Thunburg
Thunburg is not so much a global elite as she is a useful idiot. A puppet of her activist parents, Thunburg only parrots the same global warming arguments that have already been debunked year after year, yet she continues to be elevated in the mainstream media as a spokesgirl for environmentalism. Why? Because the “children are our future”, and leftists love the idea of brainwashed kid activists. If Thunburg is any indication of the next generation, the future is bleak.
While there is still zero concrete evidence that human carbon emissions lead directly to changes in the Earth’s climate, it is true that the climate does “change” over time. Of course, shifts in activity on the gigantic nuclear fusion reactor in space known as THE SUN are probably more responsible for temperature changes on the Earth than the tiny 0.04% of carbon in the Earth’s atmosphere. Don’t tell the political left this, though, or you might be labeled a “climate denier”…
Thunburg and other climate activists have suddenly been pushed to the forefront recently to comment on the pandemic situation. This might seem rather bizarre, but it makes sense when you realize how the pandemic is being exploited by the globalists to achieve certain goals. Every agenda of the globalists from carbon emissions reductions to the suppression of industrial manufacturing to the destruction of large scale farming and even to the reduction of meat in people’s diets is being accomplished right now by the coronavirus and the government shutdowns. Where climate activists failed, the virus is making headway.
Beyond that, climate activists are now arguing that the restrictions put in place because of the pandemic should be KEPT IN PLACE because of global warming. You see how that works? One has nothing to do with the other, but the technocrats will force the public to see them as related if they can. Just “listen to the scientists”, people! Listen and obey the high priests of the technotronic era. Stop demanding evidence, you aren’t “smart enough” to understand it anyway. Only UN funded labs have the power to decipher the magical math behind global warming studies.
The pandemic will open the door to many lies and the flood of disinformation the alternative media has been working so hard to counter is going to explode beyond anything we’ve seen in the past. The elites are at a crossroads. They have to turn the public towards supporting collectivism and tyranny now, or they may find themselves facing the business end of a large number of torches and pitchforks. At bottom, these elites should be in prison, not on TV dictating to the people about how they should behave and what freedoms they should give up during the crisis.

COVID-19 Naturally Leads To Corruption

Anyone who has paid attention to history knows that political change requires some sort of catalyst to happen .
So one could logically expect that the Covid-19 Pandemic would be the perfect excuse for politicians to take action .
However , it takes time for the chemical reaction to start working its magic and only now are we starting to see some major actions being taken by Congress for our “ benefit ” .
Interestingly enough , the Patriot Act is on its way to being reauthorized and naturally expanded while the nation is conveniently on lockdown .
Very often @ @ @ @ @ @ @ YouTube hills that the Constitution is being ripped in half by every move the other side makes .
This over exaggeration has a “ boy who cried wolf ” effect making it seem cliché every time journalists/pundits rage over something being “ unconstitutional ” .
But this time dear friends , Congress is actually defecating on constitutional principles and Right Wing pundits are not over inflating this issue .
The new updated Patriot Act ( as it stands today ) will allow the government to collect Americans ’ web-browsing data without a warrant @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to a new low ” seems like the appropriate response to such cowardly madness .
So if this Patriot Act update pack goes through , then the 4th Amendment has essentially faded off into the sunset probably never to be seen again .
If the government can dive into your personal data without a warrant then what is the point of having warrants at all or privacy ?
This is more proof that the principles of the Enlightenment are being ( or have been ) forgotten as only an intellectual minority understands how @ @ @ @ @ @ @ warrant issuance is as the only means the government should have to “ spy ” on an individual .
It seems obvious to say , but shouldn ’ t one be put under the government ’ s scrutiny for taking actions that rouse enough suspicion for a neutral judge to “ okay ” a warrant ?
This seems like a great policy , but then again I was born in the Cold War when American principles were still discussed , kind of understood and seemed to matter .
Like any ideology or religion @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of the Constitution then they will no longer become valid .
The 4th Amendment is starting to look like Thor – something cool that people used to believe in long ago that has become a cartoon empty version of itself in Hollywood movies .
It also needs to be stated just how weak the logic of expanding the Patriot Act is under pandemic conditions .
The original project was put in place to in theory prevent another 9/11 type event from happening .
Essentially , mass surveillance was offered as a solution to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the Coronavirus ( as of now ) is officially a natural phenomenon , then how could surveillance possibly help ?
When Patriot Act 1.0 came into being the “ ticking time bomb ” argument was made that the government needs to be able to act quickly and have no barriers in their fight against terrorism or else we are doomed to another set of planes hitting buildings .
This logic is weak but it makes some sense , but how can mass surveillance stop a natural phenomenon ?
If there was total spying @ @ @ @ @ @ @ would it really affect the appearance of a new plague ?
Unless there is an alternative theory to the origin of Covid-19 in Congress that they are keeping from us , then no amount government overreach can prevent this type of pandemic from happening again .
How can knowledge of our browser history prevent Corona 2.0 ?
It can ’ t , it won ’ t , but that means nothing , we have a crisis and that is all that is needed for action .
When in doubt , debt your way @ @ @ @ @ @ @ all over the world .
It has been a major punch in the face to American financial stability and the stimulus money sent to Americans is a logical response .
Many people have lost their jobs or face abnormal hardships .
Everyone pays taxes so in times of trouble we should expect to get our money ’ s worth from the state .
Now drafting a 347,000 word $ 3 trillion Congressional spending spree is not something we should expect as a solution to the Corona Crisis especially when one-third of it is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to compensate for their inefficiency , not the American masses .
Obviously this is all designed to bail out those lovely Democrat initiatives that cost lots of taxpayer money yet yield little for society , because if they were so important they would remain “ essential ” and funded even when the coffers look bare .
It is unclear whether this titanic bill that approaches the annual spending of the United States ( which gets the nation further and further into debt as is ) will actually go through , but it is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a crisis for one ’ s own gain .
Pelosi and crew are surely going to try to use the current catalyst to save all their programs and keep America on the track that they have routed it on .
If the idea really were to help the American people then why not just take the $ 3 trillion and give every American roughly $ 9,000 .
That would help everyone , both MAGA hat wearing factory workers and interpretive dance LGBT activists alike .

The Covid-19 iron @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to strike while they can .
New corrupt plans are probably being discussed over brandy as you read this because the economy has and will continue to suffer from this unprecedented event that we are all living through .

Vetoes can be overridden , but Trump needs to send a signal that his answers to the crisis are the ones that are going to happen .
He can manipulate @ @ @ @ @ @ @ wants , and his light being shone onto a topic can be game changing .
Sadly , thus far Trump has been focused more on # Obamagate than either of the two issues presented in this piece , meaning that his ego issues could allow the 4th Amendment to die right in front of our faces .
In contrast however , at some point he will probably fight the $ 3 trillion spending bill because Pelosi is involved in it and she is a bad lady so maybe there is some hope .

Patriot Act 2: the Revenge of Unconstitutionality
Interestingly enough, the Patriot Act is on its way to being reauthorized and naturally expanded while the nation is conveniently on lockdown. Very often the American Right will scream to the YouTube hills that the Constitution is being ripped in half by every move the other side makes. This over exaggeration has a “boy who cried wolf” effect making it seem cliché every time journalists/pundits rage over something being “unconstitutional”. But this time dear friends, Congress is actually defecating on constitutional principles and Right Wing pundits are not over inflating this issue.
The new updated Patriot Act (as it stands today) will allow the government to collect Americans’ web-browsing data without a warrant. The expression “we have sunk to a new low” seems like the appropriate response to such cowardly madness.
So if this Patriot Act update pack goes through, then the 4th Amendment has essentially faded off into the sunset probably never to be seen again. If the government can dive into your personal data without a warrant then what is the point of having warrants at all or privacy? This is more proof that the principles of the Enlightenment are being (or have been) forgotten as only an intellectual minority understands how just how fundamental maintaining a system of warrant issuance is as the only means the government should have to “spy” on an individual. It seems obvious to say, but shouldn’t one be put under the government’s scrutiny for taking actions that rouse enough suspicion for a neutral judge to “okay” a warrant? This seems like a great policy, but then again I was born in the Cold War when American principles were still discussed, kind of understood and seemed to matter.

It also needs to be stated just how weak the logic of expanding the Patriot Act is under pandemic conditions. The original project was put in place to in theory prevent another 9/11 type event from happening. Essentially, mass surveillance was offered as a solution to preventing terrorism on U.S. soil. Since the Coronavirus (as of now) is officially a natural phenomenon, then how could surveillance possibly help? When Patriot Act 1.0 came into being the “ticking time bomb” argument was made that the government needs to be able to act quickly and have no barriers in their fight against terrorism or else we are doomed to another set of planes hitting buildings.

When in doubt, debt your way out
The Coronavirus Plague has damaged economies all over the world. It has been a major punch in the face to American financial stability and the stimulus money sent to Americans is a logical response.

Stay tuned, the late night horror show will continue.
There is certainly going to be more and more disgusting exploitation of this crisis in the next few weeks/months. The Covid-19 iron is still glowing and everyone is going to strike while they can.

investmentwatchblog--2020-05-20--Opinion: No Matter How The 2020 US Presidential Election Is Held, What Matters Is Who Counts The Vot

Opinion: No Matter How The 2020 US Presidential Election Is Held, What Matters Is Who Counts The Votes

( by Half Dollar ) A lot of people are now discussing how the 2020 election is going to be held , in light of the coronavirus , and what kind of impact any deviation from standard operating procedure would have at the polls come November ?
Well , no matter who “ wins ” the Presidential Election this November , I ’ m sure this election will be plagued by even more controversy than in 2016 , and as such , if Trump wins , even though we will all get the needed second term everybody has been patiently @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Trump will surely get so bogged down in investigation after investigation that his Administration never actually has the time to get around to investigating the Traitors .
Ironic how that works out , isn ’ t it ?
Rightly so , if a person believes the votes are actually counted , then said believer is rightly worried right about now .
Now , if US elections were rigged before , just wait until they ’ re uber-rigged to a level unimaginable now that we ’ ve got this nasty little exotic designer virus @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I mean , from closed down or relocated polling stations , to social distancing disruptions and everything in between , like vote-by-mail , vote-by-computer , and who knows what else ( vote-by-smartphone-app ? )
, it sure seems the Deep State Globalists will literally be able to steal this upcoming election easier than they ’ ve stolen any election before .
And for the record , I assume any election of any real importance to the Deep State Globalists involves candidates who are ultimately selected and not elected .
In other words , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I ’ m only one person , and my vote doesn ’ t count ” , to that I say , “ you ’ re right , and your vote is quite literally not counted ” .
Remember : Some dead communist revolutionary from decades ago once said it ’ s not the vote that matters but the person counting the votes .
Or something to that effect .
But there I go again .
OK , “ Hey Half Dollar , what ’ s got you cranking out a political rant today @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a lot of times I get labeled as a Trump hater or a Trump basher , and that ’ s not true because I dislike all politicians equally , so in that sense , I don ’ t like Trump as much as I don ’ t like Hillary as much as I don ’ t like Obama , and so on , and so forth , and it should be our duty to dislike politicians anyway , because there ’ s something very inherently wrong with a person who wants to tell @ @ @ @ @ @ @ what not to do , so people in positions of political power over others should have power so limited that they can basically only ever do little more than nothing in very rare circumstances .
Here ’ s my point : The government in general , and politicians specifically , should only do what the US Constitution says they can do , and that ’ s it .
That said , Ron Paul discussed the upcoming November election , among other issues , with Congressman Massie during today ’ s Ron Paul Liberty @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the Republican Congressman from Kentucky who had the gall to demand that Congress held the Fiscal Stimulus Vote in-person .
In the end , it was a “ voice vote ” .
Massie ’ d better get to doin ’ some good old-fashioned Trump butt kissin ’ if he wants to continue his already very lengthy time in Washington as a Congressman .

(by Half Dollar) A lot of people are now discussing how the 2020 election is going to be held, in light of the coronavirus, and what kind of impact any deviation from standard operating procedure would have at the polls come November?
Well, no matter who “wins” the Presidential Election this November, I’m sure this election will be plagued by even more controversy than in 2016, and as such, if Trump wins, even though we will all get the needed second term everybody has been patiently “trusting the plan” for, Trump will surely get so bogged down in investigation after investigation that his Administration never actually has the time to get around to investigating the Traitors.
Ironic how that works out, isn’t it?
But I digress.
Rightly so, if a person believes the votes are actually counted, then said believer is rightly worried right about now.
Right?
Now, if US elections were rigged before, just wait until they’re uber-rigged to a level unimaginable now that we’ve got this nasty little exotic designer virus known as Covid-19 to deal with!
I mean, from closed down or relocated polling stations, to social distancing disruptions and everything in between, like vote-by-mail, vote-by-computer, and who knows what else (vote-by-smartphone-app?), it sure seems the Deep State Globalists will literally be able to steal this upcoming election easier than they’ve stolen any election before.
Yikes!
And for the record, I assume any election of any real importance to the Deep State Globalists involves candidates who are ultimately selected and not elected.
In other words, when people say, metaphorically, “I’m only one person, and my vote doesn’t count”, to that I say, “you’re right, and your vote is quite literally not counted”.

But there I go again.
Digression.
OK, “Hey Half Dollar, what’s got you cranking out a political rant today?”.
Good question.
The reason is because a lot of times I get labeled as a Trump hater or a Trump basher, and that’s not true because I dislike all politicians equally, so in that sense, I don’t like Trump as much as I don’t like Hillary as much as I don’t like Obama, and so on, and so forth, and it should be our duty to dislike politicians anyway, because there’s something very inherently wrong with a person who wants to tell another person what to do, or what not to do, so people in positions of political power over others should have power so limited that they can basically only ever do little more than nothing in very rare circumstances.
Here’s my point: The government in general, and politicians specifically, should only do what the US Constitution says they can do, and that’s it.
That said, Ron Paul discussed the upcoming November election, among other issues, with Congressman Massie during today’s Ron Paul Liberty Report:
Perhaps you recall Massie is the Republican Congressman from Kentucky who had the gall to demand that Congress held the Fiscal Stimulus Vote in-person.
In the end, it was a “voice vote”.
Yay.
Needless to say, Massie’s rightly worried:
Looks like a third rate Grandstander named @RepThomasMassie, a Congressman from, unfortunately, a truly GREAT State, Kentucky, wants to vote against the new Save Our Workers Bill in Congress. He just wants the publicity. He can’t stop it, only delay, which is both dangerous…… — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) March 27, 2020
By empowering the Radical Left Democrats, do nothing Kentucky politician @RepThomasMassie is making their War on the 2nd Amendment more and more difficult to win (But don’t worry, we will win anyway!). He is a disaster for America, and for the Great State of Kentucky! — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) March 27, 2020
Massie’d better get to doin’ some good old-fashioned Trump butt kissin’ if he wants to continue his already very lengthy time in Washington as a Congressman.

The Coronavirus Bankruptcy Pandemic will terminate more jobs that people who were ever hospitalized with the virus.

Penny filing for bankruptcy in the USA on May 15, saying in court documents that pandemic-related disruptions pushed it over the edge suggesting that it is no longer viable which will scare many shopping malls. Garden Fresh Restaurants also filed for outright bankruptcy.
In Germany, the situation at the department store group Galeria Karstadt Kaufhof and Deutsche Bahn is coming to a ahead. In addition, numerous medium-sized companies have had to file for bankruptcy in the past few weeks.
The economic fallout has only begun. These are the end-retailers. Then you have the distributor companies (supply chain) and behind the manufacturing companies and all the shipping. The economic devastation from this unnecessary virus insanity has so structurally altered the economy that the Climate Changed advocates are throwing wild parties cheering the end of so many jobs. What they fail to understand is that these are people with families. The $1200 check will do nothing and the Democrats are only concerned about bailing out government worker pensions at the state and local levels. The rest of society is just collateral damage of no importance to get to ZERO Co2 for they are just the unwashed irrelevant people who have no human rights at stake in this monopoly game of power.

For years, the tobacco industry has denied vaping causes cancer. Similarly, the biometrics industry, despite knowing facial recognition destroys everyone’s privacy, claims it can help stop the spread of COVID-19. It is like they ripped their marketing strategy straight from the pages of Big Tobacco’s playbook.
Clear’s plan to force employees to submit to daily facial recognition tests and daily health quizzes before they can go to work will destroy any lasting thoughts Americans had about their privacy.
Axios.com’s article describes how businesses can profit by linking employee personal health to their faces. describes how businesses can profit by linking employee personal health to their faces.
“Before businesses can effectively reopen, workers and customers need to be assured that they’re unlikely to encounter coronavirus infections. Linking COVID-19 to IDs could make that easier, but to be fully effective, it requires a more vigorous and reliable testing regimen, as well as public acceptance of a new level of tech-enabled health surveillance.”
CLEAR’s facial recognition/health surveillance program forces employees to submit to CLEAR’s real-time “Health Pass” quizzes.
“The system works like this: Using a Health Pass app, people have their identity validated through facial recognition, then they indicate whether they’re sick by taking a real-time health quiz and uploading test results. That would generate a QR code, which can be scanned by some device, like a phone or a Clear kiosk, to allow entry into an office or store within a certain time period.”
Imagine giving a biometric company the power to decide who gets to work and who doesn’t in real-time? Because that is exactly what Clear wants.
Employees will be “asked” to download the CLEAR app on their smartphones and then enroll in the so-called free service. I italicized “asked” because while it is technically true they will be asked to download the app, they will not be allowed to work unless they use CLEAR’s app.
Imagine a biometric company making deals with businesses to force employees to give up their biometric privacy just to earn a living.
“To enter a business or venue that employs Health Pass, users will snap a selfie to authenticate their identity and take a health quiz on possible COVID-19 symptoms. The company says that it plans for users to be able to link COVID-19 test results with their digital identity in the future.”
As Axios points out , forcing people to fill out daily health quizzes and daily temperature checks after they have been out of work for so long, is no guarantee that people will answer them honestly.
“There’s no guarantee that a user will fill out a health quiz honestly, especially if the answers could mean the difference between being able to work or not. Temperature checks wouldn’t necessarily catch the asymptomatic or those in the infectious period before symptoms set in.”
CLEAR claims that forcing everyone to submit daily biometric check-ins and real-time health quizzes makes people feel safer.
“Health Pass by Clear gives employees and consumers the confidence and peace of mind to get back to work, shop at their favorite store, step into a restaurant and attend a ball game”
The only ones who will feel safer are Homeland Security and CLEAR who will have created a real-time biometric database of millions of working Americans.
OneZero Medium points out. Forcing employees to take quizzes and undergo thermal imaging scans is really just a workplace smoke screen as
“Someone can actively have the Covid-19 virus but not produce antibodies detectable by a test, meaning they would be an invisible and active carrier of the disease. In fact, no result from an antibody test meaningfully changes what a person should do in this situation, which is practice social distancing whenever in public.
The article goes on to say that letting a biometric company, like Clear make public health policies would be a huge mistake.
“If Clear’s Health Pass is widely adopted, it gives a private organization immense power over the implementation of public health policy. That’s especially risky at a time when there are no nationwide public health policies for reopening the country.”
Do we really want to let Google, Apple, Microsoft and Clear shape our health policies? Big Tech and the biometrics industry are masters at public manipulation. They are making billions of dollars off of our personal information.

Allowing Big Tech and biometric companies to dictate who can and cannot work is a dystopian nightmare unlike anything anyone has ever imagined.
The parallels to China are striking. How long before biometric companies propose businesses require employees and customers to show their “green light” status In China, residents are required to download an AliPay app that shows businesses, restaurants and malls a person’s coronavirus status. “A green light lets you in anywhere. A yellow light could send you into home confinement. The dreaded red light throws a person into a strict two-week quarantine at a hotel.” A nation held hostage by fear and run by corporate interests who profit from national surveillance is a terrifying prospect. Can social credit scoring be far behind?

Harvard Law School emeritus professor Alan Dershowitz claimed in an interview that the government has a constitutional right under the 10th Amendment to forcibly vaccinate a citizen to curb the spread of a contagious disease.
“Let me put it very clearly, you have no constitutional right to endanger the public and spread the disease, even if you disagree. You have no right not to be vaccinated, you have no right not to wear a mask, you have no right to open up your business,” he said.
The interviewer, Jason Goodman, interjected, asking if the famed constitutional scholar was saying that if the government decides “you have to be vaccinated, we have to be vaccinated.”
