AG Secretary Sonny Perdue Discusses Challenges Shifting Food Supply Chains….


The U.S. economy will reopen sooner rather than later specifically because of non-discussed issues in the total U.S. food supply chain.  While government officials have to be very careful in public comments, AG Secretary Sonny Perdue hinted toward the issue today during his remarks at the coronavirus task force briefing.  WATCH:

.

The issue is slightly complex; and with two months of manufactured food supply-chain stress; it is now becoming increasingly important to re-open consumer access to the fresh-food side of the aggregate supply chain (ie. restaurants, cafe’s, and food away from home).

Most Americans were not aware food consumption in the U.S. was a 55/45 proposition. Approximately 55% of all food was consumed “outside the home” (or food away from home), and 45% of all food consumed was food “inside the home” (grocery shoppers).

Food ‘outside the home’ included: restaurants, fast-food locales, schools, corporate cafeterias, university lunchrooms, manufacturing cafeterias, hotels, food trucks, park and amusement food sellers and many more. Many of those venues are not thought about when people evaluate the overall U.S. food delivery system; however, this network was approximately 55 percent of all food consumption on a daily basis.

The ‘food away from home‘ sector has its own supply chain. Very few restaurants and venues (cited above) purchase food products from retail grocery outlets. As a result of the coronavirus mitigation effort the ‘food away from home’ sector has been reduced by 75% of daily food delivery operations. However, people still need to eat. That means retail food outlets, grocers, are seeing sales increases of 25 to 50 percent, depending on the area.

•Phase One was retail. •Phase two was distribution. •Phase three was the space between processing/manufacturing and distribution. •Phase four was raw material supply to manufacturing. •Phase five is consumer packaging capacity, and bulk storage inventories.

This is the phase where Secretary Sonny Perdue starts getting concerned…

♦ Phase Five – The retail consumer supply chain for manufactured and processed food products includes bulk storage to compensate for seasonality. As Agriculture Secretary Sonny Perdue recently noted “there are over 800 commercial and public warehouses in the continental 48 states that store frozen products.”

Here is a snapshot of the food we had in storage at the end of February: over 302 million pounds of frozen butter; 1.36 billion pounds of frozen cheese; 925 million pounds of frozen chicken; over 1 billion pounds of frozen fruit; nearly 2.04 billion pounds of frozen vegetables; 491 million pounds of frozen beef; and nearly 662 million pounds of frozen pork.

This bulk food storage is how the total U.S. consumer food supply ensures consistent availability even with weather impacts.  As a nation we essentially stay one harvest ahead of demand by storing it and smoothing out any peak/valley shortfalls. There are a total of 175,642 commercial facilities involved in this supply-chain across the country

Few Americans are aware of this.  However, that stored-food-supply is the supply-chain for food manufacturers who process the ingredients into a variety of branded food products and distribute to your local supermarket.

That bulk stored food, and the subsequent supply chain, is entirely separate from the commercial fresh food supply chain used by restaurants, hotels, cafeterias etc.  For almost 8 weeks the retail consumer supply chain has been operating beyond capacity and the burn rate of raw food products is up a stunning 40 percent.

Those bulk warehouses, the feeder pools for retail/consumer manufactured food products, are starting to run low.

Believe me: (1) we don’t want to find out what happens when those 800 mass storage facilities run out; and (2) the food supply chain will be a big part of President Trump’s decision-making on reopening the economy thereby re-opening restaurants, cafeterias, etc…. and switching consumption back to fresh supply.

This “bigger picture” is not being considered by politically-minded governors, DC politicians, and public health-centric advisors who focus exclusively on the virus.

Additionally, there are very specific issues within each supply chain (commercial and consumer). It is not as easy as people think to move the commercial supply-chain (restaurants etc.) into the consumer supply chain (grocers). First, there are simply packaging capacity issues.  Additionally, there’s an entirely different set of regulations on the processing side for the consumer supply chain.

One dairy farmer helps explain:

Are we dumping milk because of greed or low demand, no. It’s the supply chain, there are only so many jug fillers, all were running 24/7 before this cluster you-know-what.

Now demand for jug milk has almost doubled.  However, restaurant demand is almost gone; NO ONE is eating out. 

Restaurant milk is distributed in 2.5 gal bags or pint chugs; further, almost 75 percent of milk is processed into hard products in this country, cheese and butter. Mozzarella is almost a third of total cheese production; how’s pizza sales going right now??

A bit of history – Years ago (40+) every town had a bottler, they ran one shift a day, could ramp up production easily.  Now with all the corporate takeovers (wall street over main street) we are left with regional “high efficiency” milk plants that ran jug lines 24/7 before this mess, no excess capacity.

Jug machines cost millions and are MADE IN CHINA. Only so many jugs can be blown at a jug plant.  We farmers don’t make the jugs, damn hard to ramp up production.

I’m a dairy farmer, believe me NO dairyman likes dumping milk; and so far there is NO guarantee they will get paid. Milk must be processed within 48 hours of production and 24 hours of receipt in the plant or it goes bad. Same with making it into cheese and butter, and neither stores well for long.

The same supply line problems exists where restaurants are supplied with bulk 1 pound blocks of butter or single serv packs or pats; and cheese is sold in 10 to 20 pound bags (think shredded Mozzarella for pizza).  Furthermore, it is not legal for this end of the supply chain to sell direct to consumers in most states.

Take cheddar cheese for instance; it goes from mild to sharp to crap in storage. Butter, frozen, only stores for so long and then must be slowly thawed and processed into other uses as it gets “strong”.  At Organic Valley we cook it down into butter oil or ghee for cooking.

We are headed for the same problem with canned veggies.  The vast majority of produce comes off and is processed in season; canned or frozen.  The supply is already in cans for the season; restaurants use gallon cans or bulk bags of frozen produce.

At some point we will run out of consumer sized cans in stock because home size sales are up (40%+) and restaurant sales are almost nonexistent.  Fresh produce out of U.S. season comes from Mexico (different climate).  I’m talking sweet corn, green beans, peas, tomatoes, all veggies are seasonal in the USA.  Fresh, out-of-season, row crops are  imported.  (There are exceptions, like hydroponic grown, but small amount of total).

Someone mentioned “time to raid all those bins of corn”.  Those bins on the farm contain yellow corn, cattle feed and totally unfit for human consumption, now or at harvest.

Eggs? Same problem.  Bakeries and restaurants of any size use Pullman egg cases, 30 dozen at a pop, 30 eggs to a flat, 12 flats to a case.  There are only so many 1 dozen egg cartons available and only so many packing machines.

Industrial bakeries and processors of packaged food buy bulk liquid eggs, no carton at all.  Also in many states it is illegal to sell this supply-chain directly to consumers. 

On your standard buffet of any size, do you really think they boil eggs and peel them? They come in a bag, boiled and diced; those nice uniform slices of boiled egg you see on your salad, a lot of them come in tubes boiled and extruded at the same time, just unwrap and slice. Your scrambled eggs come in a homogenized bag on most buffets.

Another example of Main Street being gutted and “improved by wall street” NO local egg processors available or many small egg producers either, all corporate and huge, contracted to sell to the corporate masters.

This is a warning the same problems exist in all supply chains.

The supply chain is farked.

David Osterloh,
61-year-old dairy farmer

Most people don’t contemplate the bigger issue within the dynamic of total food distribution in the United States.  It is a very complex supply chain that has been reinvented over the past 50 years as more people started eating away from home.

The commercial fresh food supply chain, which is 55 percent of total food consumption, is currently stalled.  The retail or manufactured food supply (grocery stores), which was formerly 45 percent of food distribution, cannot reasonably generate enough product to compensate for half of the total food supply chain shutting down without radical adjustments to the operation; and those radical adjustments take time to implement.

There is still plenty of fresh supply foodstuffs, but processed or manufactured food will likely not be able to keep operating at the current capacity much longer.

Traditional emergency food recovery and distribution models (think hurricanes) are designed for short-term disruptions to the restaurant sector that provides 50% of food outside the home; and, as a result, short-term increases to at home food needs.  Those emergency and recovery models have contingency plans for short-term regional bursts of specific non perishable products into specific areas.  This ain’t that.

The current supply chain disruption is a severe reduction in the availability of ‘food outside the home‘ for a sustained period.  Losing the entire sector is very unusual, unprecedented, unforeseen in scale; and there is no national contingency plan for a nationwide demand on all retail supermarket food products simultaneously.

Once these bulk warehouse fulfillment centers run out, every manufacturer and food processor in the country is pulling from the same upstream supplier network.  Again, there’s no need to panic, the total food supply is not short, we all just need to adjust our shopping habits and get a little creative.

White House Coronavirus Task Force Briefing – 5:00pm ET Livestream (Rose Garden)…


Unfortunately, with President Trump effectively communicating the latest information on the federal efforts to mitigate COVID-19, more corporate U.S. resistance media have decided not to carry the live broadcasts from the White House task force briefings.

Today at 5:00pm ET the White House will hold a briefing for the public and media on the latest mitigation efforts against the coronavirus. [Livestream Links Below]

Getting Back to Work and Back to Church


If it serves progressives politically to have people out of work, miserable, starving, then they are consciously serving the interests of the country which spawned the virus, Communist China

Getting Back to Work and Back to ChurchThe Washington Post claims “constitutional experts” have “no idea” where President Trump got the idea that emergency powers give him the total authority to reopen the U.S. economy. It took me less than one minute to find a report from a liberal group, the Brennan Center, which noted that “the president has significant discretion to declare a national emergency” and “there are no statutory limitations, beyond the word ‘emergency’ itself, on what type of event qualifies.”

Does an economic depression constitute a special event requiring emergency action?  Do food shortages constitute a special event requiring emergency action? You betcha.

Trump declared a national emergency on March 13, under the National Emergencies Act, relating to the coronavirus. The Brennan Center found 123 statutory powers that are available to the president when he declares a national emergency.

The problem in America is not Trump but outlaw governors and mayors who have, in the case of Greenville, Mississippi, banned drive-in church services.

Critics of Trump who assert his claim of total authority is hogwash are ignoring what scholars call the “Emergency Law Regime.” Trump didn’t make this up. It’s been on the books for decades. Congress gave the president these powers. They are what political science professor Clinton Rossiter called the “Constitutional Dictatorship,” which is also the name of his 1948 book.

Presidents of the past using these powers have been swooned over by the liberals. One was Abraham Lincoln, who didn’t even have emergency powers granted by Congress. He simply exercised raw power. Another was FDR.

Prospect of food shortages, massive unemployment

With the prospect of food shortages, in addition to massive unemployment, it’s very easy to see how President Trump can use these emergency powers to control and expand the national economy, including interstate commerce.  On Tuesday, he said he would rather work with the governors than order them around. But he made it clear he has the ultimate authority, and he’s right.

The liberal media are promoting the notion that Trump, if he acts to save jobs and the economy, would be a dictator or King. It seems the Post and its “experts” would rather leave the national economy in the hands of liberal governors who have closed down churches while keeping potheads addicted to marijuana they get from the “essential businesses” selling the dope. Liberal governors want people to remain in a fog, drunk or stoned, and not go to church. That makes them more susceptible to mindlessly accepting anti-Trump propaganda.

President Lincoln suspended habeas corpus without Congressional approval in 1861. But he’s a beloved president because he rescued the nation. Trump can rescue the nation without exercising Lincoln-like powers. He can use the emergency powers Congress gave him. These also include the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act.

Trump has not acted like a dictator. He has followed the law.

By contrast, some governors and mayors are acting like tyrants by ordering churches closed down and church members arrested or fined. But the liberal media don’t utter a peep. They would, however, probably scream to high heaven if the governors in their states shut down their pot shops and liquor stores.  These journalists, of course, have been designated as employees of “essential businesses” in the states, despite their open disdain for our constitutional system and the legitimate election of Donald J. Trump as president.

Trump has depended on the governors to exercise such power properly. Clearly, however, many governors have gone far beyond what is necessary. Trump can and should assert control over these outlaw governors. Many Americans would welcome federal intervention under these circumstances. They want to get back to work and get back to church.

Congress has never revoked national emergency powers, and it’s unlikely they would intervene, in voting to override an emergency declaration, to stop Trump from getting Americans back to work. Instead, Democrats will obstruct the legislative process of helping those forced out of their jobs through government action. As we have already seen, they are trying to use this crisis to add extreme left-wing agenda items, such as fraudulent mail-in voting, to financial stimulus legislation.

Trump, under current circumstances, is simply contemplating a decision to allow private businesses that have been closed down by government to get back to work. There’s no legal basis on which to challenge his executive authority. In fact, he’s trying to restore a system of free enterprise, one of our birthrights as Americans.

Congress passed the Defense Production Act (DPA), under which Trump has ordered General Motors to make ventilators. This is acceptable, proper, and necessary.  Nobody disputes the president’s authority in this case. In fact, Democrats asked for it.

The DPA, according to the Congressional Research Service, “confers upon the President a broad set of authorities to influence domestic industry in the interest of national defense.” Once again, we see wide latitude given to the president. Since the law refers explicitly to “production,” it is easy to see how it could be used to justify a presidential decision to get the United States back to work. Trump would simply have to justify the decision as critical to the national security posture of the United States and in the “national interest.” Various sections of the Defense Production Act, such as “Strengthening domestic capability,” are open-ended.

One of the objectives as mandated by the Congress in the Federal Reserve Act is promoting maximum employment. The president can and should declare that to be his objective as well. It’s difficult to see how the “progressives” would argue with that, unless of course it serves them politically to have people out of work, miserable, and starving. If that’s the case, then they are consciously serving the interests of the country which spawned the virus, Communist China.

Coronavirus – the Double Standard


I disparage, disapprove and condemn mankind’s blatant double-standard, which has us, on the one hand, joining-in together to defend the species against a common enemy, and, on the other hand, continue with our untroubled approval to kill each other

Coronavirus – the Double StandardFor some of us, the word “statistics”, brings back memories of our college days, when we were forcefully required to deal with this occult science – one which I, sooner than later, found to be a rather valuable tool used in collecting, organizing, analyzing and interpreting data in rather meaningful quantitative forms. Matter of fact, I venture to say, statistics are intimately entwined in our lives as a means of evaluating the present and forecasting the future.

Given its obvious usefulness, I personally have remained an avid practitioner of this applied science throughout my life while exploiting its infinite value, albeit as intended today, putting it to good use relative to its common-sense practicality when analyzing this Coronavirus /COVID-19 pandemic.

The moment I started my analysis, I came across some rather revealing occurrences. The first lesson I learned was that the average world-wide mortality rate is compiled in what is known as ‘crude death rate’, typically interpreted as number of deaths per 1000 inhabitants in a population. In 2020, the CIA estimates the U.S. crude death rate will be 8.3 per 1000, a tad higher than the world global rate of 7.7 per 1000. Translated into real numbers, we conclude that the yearly world-wide death-toll today is of approximately some 60+ million people, of which 2+ million pertain to the U.S.

Next, I learned that the leading causes of death in the U.S. were Heart Disease, closely followed by Cancer and Accidents. These 3 causes alone account for approximately 1.4 million or 68.1% deaths in the nation every year. Compare this number to the number of Coronavirus / COVID-19 deaths reported thus far as of Monday, April 13th,  23,462 were in the United States.

When I first wrote this piece, I set out to do a comparative analysis of the Coronavirus / COVID-19 pandemic relative to other mortality statistics, only to find some revealing and much unexpected results. Considering the fact that the world-wide Coronavirus fatalities reported thus far of 119,091 and 23,462 in the U.S. took place during a short-span within the last four months, to wit, between January and April of this year, and, for the sake of parity, comparing “pears with pears and apples with apples,” in my comparative model, I made an allowance which presumes, hopefully not, there will be an equal number of deaths in the remaining 3 quarters of 2020. That is, for comparative purposes, I am projecting a death-toll from the Coronavirus Pandemic of approximately 350,000+ people world-wide, and 70,000+ here in the U.S., throughout the rest of 2020.

Were this the case and if I am right, mind you, the number of Coronavirus deaths would be equivalent to a rather low 0.6% of the total yearly world-wide deaths of 60+ million, and for the U.S., the projected 70,000 would be equivalent to 3.5%. Tell you the truth, I was utterly surprised and at the same time thrilled to find how low these percentages were relatively low as compared to the state of disruption ensuing from the pandemic.

I was further amazed by the fact that this 3.5% compared much lower to other causes of death in the nation such as Heart Disease with 31.1%, Cancer with 28.8%, Accidents with 8.2%, Respiratory Diseases with 7.7%, Strokes with 7.0%, Alzheimer with 5.8% and Diabetes with 4.0%. In the same comparison table, I couldn’t help but notice that my Coronavirus projected deaths only compared to deaths caused by Influenza, Nephritis and Suicides.

My next comparison was to the number of people that have been killed in wars throughout history, which historians have it as high, ranging up to 1 billion people. Add another 60.9 million killed by human Genocides, and it will give you a death toll averaging 500,000 people every year over a span of 2,166 years since 146 BC. We can then conclude that mankind’s wars and genocides have been approximately 28.5% higher than the projected world-wide deaths resulting form the Coronavirus. Here again, the projected number of Coronavirus deaths is considerably lower than people dying in man-made wars and genocides.

In my comparative tour, I purposely left for last, the one statistic closest to my heart and that is a comparative analysis of deaths caused by Communism as compared to the Coronavirus / COVID-19 pandemic. While the number of deaths attributed to Communism varies greatly, according to one the most trusted sources on the subject, R. J. Rummel, in his book Death by Government (1994), there were approximately 110 million people killed by Communist democide from 1900 to 1987 – the term “democide” defined by Rummel as ‘the intentional killing of an unarmed or disarmed person by government agents in their authoritative capacity and pursuant to government policy or high command.”

So, in essence, you can say the Communists have killed an average of 1.2 million people per year in 87 years. So, if I take all these comparative statistics into consideration, I can’t help but come to some rather obvious conclusions, the first one being a refreshing realization that the number of deaths resulting from this Coronavirus pandemic are not anywhere nearly as high as we have made them out to be – that is, as compared to the magnanimous state of preparedness and disruption of our lives, such as that we have been experiencing. In my humble opinion the death threat has been somewhat gently over-stated.

My next observation deals the rather overt double-standard afflicting mankind relative to our state of collective hysteria that has resulted from the Coronavirus pandemic as compared to the avertible deaths that result year-in and year-out from man-made wars and genocides. Before I go on, however, let me just clarify something before you pass judgment on me prematurely. I am not, by any stretch of the imagination, underestimating the deadly threat posed by the Coronavirus pandemic. But I am, on the other hand, questioning our collective madness in hedging the virus as compared to our copacetic approval to kill each other in wars and genocides.

In summary my dear friends, I do acclaim, approve and applaud the way the world, as a whole, has quickly reacted to the threats posed by this pandemic attack, more so, the way that our president, Donald Trump and his administration have swiftly handled the crisis, possibly avoiding many more deaths in the nation. By the same token, I disparage, disapprove and condemn mankind’s blatant double-standard, which has us, on the one hand, joining-in together to defend the species against a common enemy, and, on the other hand, continue with our untroubled approval to kill each other through our wars and genocides. May God save us and may God save the United States of America.

America’s Pyrrhic Victory


In the end, we’ll see this pandemic wasn’t Armageddon after all. It was merely, as Fauci himself admitted, a bad flu, as we do get from time to time. But one of the patients who lies dying is America

America’s Pyrrhic VictoryAn unintended consequence of my years of reading Agatha Christie mysteries is that I learned how to separate the red herrings from the salient facts hiding in plain sight, which are always the key to solving the puzzle. Admittedly, the queen of the mystery novel often outsmarted me, as many times her chief detective Hercule Poirot conducted his denouement before I’d figured out who done it; nevertheless, I learned quite a bit from his exemplary method. And I’m going to attempt to use it now with respect to the unprecedented situation in America today.

Let’s begin with the premise that we know almost nothing with any certainty about the Chinese coronavirus pandemic. We don’t know with certainty how it began, or whether it occurred in nature or was created in a lab. There is also great confusion and uncertainty regarding how cases are confirmed, and whether the number of deaths being reported in Italy and in the U.S., at any rate—since we can trust nothing coming out of Communist China—are accurate, since co-morbidities are generally not being factored in.  In addition, many assert the tests themselves are woefully inaccurate, producing both false positives and false negatives. Furthermore, last week the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) sent American hospitals a new directive to count COVID-19 as the cause of death even if it is merely “suspected” when a patient dies in the hospital. According to the directive, signed by Secretary Alex Azar, they are required to list: “Number of patients with suspected or confirmed COVID-19 who died in the hospital, or any overflow location on the date for which you are reporting.” (Italics mine).

So, what do we actually know for certain?

We know that the mainstream media has churned up enormous fear over the Wuhan flu, aka COVID-19. In fact, we can’t escape the ubiquitous picture of that spiky red ball that is out to get us. Does it strike you as odd that we were never on such intimate terms with any virus before? Apparently, none of them merited an artist’s rendition, let alone a fraction of the publicity this infinitesimal critter has amassed. If there were a virus Hall of Fame, we know who’d be in pride of place. We also know who can promote such stardom or notoriety overnight: our echo-chamber media propagandizers.

Truth be told, the media has not had such a field day counting up dead bodies since the war in Vietnam. Even the President is calling this flu epidemic a “war.” So we know there is a huge media campaign to impress us with the danger presented by this virus which is hyped as if it were the Black Death.

Turns out that COVID -19 is far less deadly than many other coronaviruses

Trouble is, the ballyhoo doesn’t fit the reality. Turns out that COVID -19 is far less deadly than many other coronaviruses have been, including SARS, MERS and Ebola, with their death rates of 20-40%, or the Avian flu with a whopping 60% mortality rate, whereas COVID-19 clocks in at a modest 1% or well below, closer to .1%, depending on whose data you trust.

In fact, Dr. Anthony Fauci himself affirmed in an article he co-authored for the New England Journal of Medicine’s March 26th issue, thatCOVID -19 is essentially “a severe seasonal influenza,” i.e. a bad flu. Nothing we haven’t seen before in terms of its death rate. Perhaps Fauci quietly published this article a couple of weeks ago to give himself plausible deniability later on when the public may well be clamoring for his scalp.

We also know that, as with the seasonal flu, most who succumb are our frail elderly—which is why we call them “frail.” Even a cold can result in pneumonia and death for our octogenarians. Have we forgotten that people grow old and eventually die of one thing or another? But I digress.

Let us now leave behind all thoughts and conjectures about the Wuhan flu/Chinese Coronavirus/COVID -19 pandemic, as if it had never occurred. Instead, let’s examine only the resultant facts, the way Poirot does as he separates out stories and fabrications from verifiable information to get at the truth. Let’s regard the reality before us without the distraction of the clangorous, anxiety-producing reports that are filling the airwaves.

Here then, are the facts stripped of all narrative: In America today, our Constitution and our Constitutional rights have been suspended. Our entire economy has been shut down. Schools have been closed.

Here then, are the facts stripped of all narrative

Churches and synagogues have been closed. A pastor was arrested for holding a church service in this country which was founded upon religious freedom. People are forbidden to congregate not only for religious worship, but even for their own weddings, bar mitzvahs, baptisms, and funerals, let alone birthday or anniversary celebrations.  Many states are under lockdowns in which you can be fined and/or arrested for leaving your home for an “unnecessary”  purpose. Public parks have been closed off to the very public they were intended for. Small businesses, the lifeblood of America and of our middle class, are dying in plain sight—many shutting their doors for good as the shutdown drags on.

Americans, in arguably the foremost of all first-world countries, suddenly can’t find toilet paper. And for weeks now, under draconian lockdowns in nearly every state, you can’t get a fast food hamburger, let alone sit down to a medium rare ribeye or grilled salmon at your favorite local restaurant; in many places you can’t get your pants hemmed or your dress dry-cleaned; you can’t get your teeth cleaned or cavities filled; you can’t get a haircut, manicure, pedicure, or a hip replacement, as these are all deemed “non-essential.”

By the way, did you ever stop to wonder just who is determining what is “non-essential”?  Funny, I don’t remember voting on this. When exactly did we surrender all power over our lives in the land of the free and the home of the brave?

Our men are humiliated and subdued, our women demoralized, and our children traumatized. But none of this is due to the Chinese coronavirus. Rather it is due to dictatorial governmental edicts, i.e. tyranny—exactly the kind of abuses that led to the American Revolution in the first place. On second thought, no, not exactly—the current abuses are much, much worse.

Who is determining what is “non-essential”?

Note also that all “large” gatherings are forbidden. This includes football games, baseball games, concerts, live theatre, movie theatres, the opera, ballet, symphony, and, oh yes, Trump rallies.

In our culture that venerates expertise, the prevailing experts have given us their sage advice: kiss America goodbye, and go wash your hands.

Now let’s dig deeper by lining up a few key facts completely stripped of the scary pandemic narrative. This is the point when Poirot would be asking “Cui bono?” Who stands to gain?

Almost overnight the burgeoning Trump economy has been trashed. All the amazing job gains have vanished and we’re moving more and more into the red, as unemployment soars. Many of these job losses will not be magically restored once the economy is turned back on.

Similarly, the gains in the stock market that had instilled hope and enthusiasm and renewed consumer confidence in America have now been summarily wiped out.

And the increasingly popular Trump rallies, all but guaranteed to help carry this President to a landslide victory in November while making any Democrat’s rallies look pathetic by comparison, have been swept off the map.

Add to that the fact that President Trump, albeit practically at knife-point, signed the biggest bailout in American history, which makes him responsible for adding trillions to our national debt, though up till now he prided himself on trimming wasteful spending.

Do you begin to see a pattern here?

Do you begin to see a pattern here?

At last we are poised to discover “who done it,” and as Agatha Christie mystery fans have learned to expect, we’re about to be shocked by the revelation. As in many of her finest tales, this denouement involves not just a single culprit, but the stealthy employment of accomplices you’d never have suspected.

So, without further ado, Mesdames et Messieurs, let’s proceed.

Largely obscured by the hysteria surrounding theCOVID-19 pandemic, lies a truly audacious plan. A plan that could not have been perpetrated without the collusion of the media and the UN’s World Health Organization, among other players. This colossal undertaking partakes of Goebbels’ “Big Lie” phenomenon: manipulation on this scale is so preposterous that people just can’t believe anyone would attempt it. Yes, the virus is real. But virtually everything created around it has been orchestrated and scripted—to serve a purpose.

So who are the culprits? They should be familiar to us by now, as they are the same enemies of America who seek to turn our nation into a Socialist dystopia; they are the ones bent on removing Trump because he stands in their way. They tried six ways to Sunday to take him down, but nothing worked—until now. They can be grouped together as a consortium of America-hating globalists, Leftists, Democrats, Progressives, RINOs, and powerful New World Order zealots, who have now gotten precisely what they wanted. Even if the nationwide shutdown were to end tomorrow, they would have succeeded in turning America into a mirror image of Communist China for at least a few weeks. They know it can be done. They know how to do it. They just did.

They have succeeded in jettisoning President Trump’s 3½ unprecedentedly successful years in office, and have tricked him into conspiring in what may turn out to be his own and America’s demise.

Now, do you still want to talk about the virus and whether it came from bats?

Do you want to talk about test kits, or “flattening the curve”?

Look around you. Look at our desolate downtowns, empty streets, shuttered stores—look at the sad eyes of your fellow citizens above their pathetically masked faces. This is the reality. The purpose of the media’s incessant fear-mongering as they gleefully trumpet “skyrocketing” new cases of the virus, is just to distract you from grasping the tragedy unfolding all around us.

In the end, we’ll see this pandemic wasn’t Armageddon after all. It was merely, as Fauci himself admitted, a bad flu, as we do get from time to time.

But one of the patients who lies dying is America.

And I fear that nothing short of Divine intervention can bring her back.

Biden’s sexual misconduct & family nepotism must be investigated


Now the media and his party are covering up a history of sexual abuse. Surely Americans want these issues investigated before they place their vote?

Biden’s sexual misconduct & family nepotism must be investigatedThe biased hypocrisy of the #MeToo Movement was blatantly obvious when Tara Reade stepped forward to complain about being sexually assaulted by Democratic Presidential nominee, Joe Biden.

Result? Total silence.

Remember the MeToo cry “Believe All Women!”

The alleged assault took place in his Senate office in 1993. Reade put her complaint on record at the Senate. Her complaint was ignored.  She also complained about Biden’s assault to friends and family.

It is interesting to compare how the Democrats, their compliant media, and the #MeToo activists responded to this complaint and how they acted in their fiery outrage against Trump nominee, Judge Brett Kavanagh.

Remember the MeToo cry “Believe All Women!” when a false complaint was brought about him over some vague event decades before?

What happened to that slogan when it came to Biden’s accuser? Well, nothing.

The biased shoe, it seems, is on the other foot when a leading Democrat is the abuser.

Lara Reade must go the way of Juanita Broderick, Paula Jones, Kathleen Willey, Gennifer Flowers and all the other women raped or sexually molested by another high profile Democrat, President Bill Clinton.

In the Kavanagh case, the media had a field day attacking him and his family mercilessly.

Biden, on the other hand, is protected by a media that will be rock solid behind his 2020 candidacy.

Biden deserves due process

When unsubstantiated rumors were brought against a college-period Kavanagh, Jason Johnson, the political editor of The Root said on MSNBC, in September 2019, “I never heard of a one-time rapist.”

This TV jerk called Judge Kavanagh a “gang rapist,” based on no evidence whatsoever.

There was no evidence that Kavanagh ever met his accuser at the time and place she mentioned. There is clear evidence of the working relationship between Reade and Biden.

Is Johnson now prepared to go back onto MSNBC and say the same about Joe Biden? I doubt it.

Biden deserves due process, but Lara Reade’s complaint also deserves the same respect and due diligence that was afforded to Christine Blassey Ford.

If that was an essential step in the process of affirming Kavanagh onto the Supreme Court, how much more essential is it to thoroughly investigate charges against a Presidential nominee, Joe Biden, in advance of the November election?

The New York Times led the charge against Brett Kavanagh in large part because of their political bias. Kavanagh was the nominee of President Trump, therefore in their eyes worthy of persecution and prosecution.

Biden’s penchant of sliding up to women and fondling them

This bias clearly warped their coverage against Lara Reade’s complaint against their 2020 champion, Joe Biden.

Their double standard and their botched up job at all levels was truly jaw dropping.

The story of Joe Biden’s impropriety had been brewing for over a week and the NYT had to print something. Lara Reade’s complaint was graphically explicit and required a response.

Part of the NYT’s coverage of the incident on April 12 included a startling sentence.

“The Times found no pattern of sexual misconduct by Mr. Biden, beyond the hugs, kisses and touching that women previously said made them uncomfortable.”

Perhaps inadvertently, the Times has opened up a history of Biden’s penchant of sliding up to women and fondling them.

This leads to the necessity of examining in detail Biden’s strange sexual behavior over the years.

Does America was another Democratic President touching and fondling women?

Where is #MeToo when you need them most? Missing in action.

The big boss of NYT didn’t think it was a factual mistake that Biden fondles women, or worse

This section of the NYT article was removed following a call from Biden’s campaign team, showing clear evidence of media compliance by a news outlet in an election period.

Then the big shoe fell.

NYT Executive Director, Dean Basquet, opened his mouth and put his foot in it.

“I think that the campaign thought that the phrasing was awkward and made it look like there were other instances in which he had been accused of sexual misconduct.”

Then he seemed to emphasize Biden’s strange pathology with women.

“We didn’t think it was a factual mistake. I thought it was an awkward phrasing issue that could be read different ways and that it wasn’t something factual we were correcting.”

The big boss of NYT didn’t think it was a factual mistake that Biden fondles women, or worse.

The Biden election team find it awkward to deal with their clients’  sexual proclivities

This should have been one of the biggest political stories in an election year. It certainly would have been based on the lies that were printed about a Trump non-event with hookers in a Moscow hotel prior to the election four years ago.

But to Basquet, this was “just a different news judgment moment.”

Yes, it was. Basquet’s judgment was to dilute the story at the request of the Biden squad, a courtesy he did not afford Donald Trump in 2016.

The Biden election team find it awkward to deal with their clients’  sexual proclivities.

The double standard is open and amazing. It goes deeper than sexual misconduct.

Biden seems to have gotten away with a history of nepotism with his family’s get rich quick schemes by following or escorting their father/brother/father-in-law around the world and then personally signing multi-million dollar deals in his wake.

Now the media and his party are covering up a history of sexual abuse.

Surely Americans want these issues investigated before they place their vote?

The Return of the Obamas—Who Never Went Away—To Steal Election 2020


We don’t yet know where the virus came from, how far it will go, but we certainly know who it’s being used against

The Return of the Obamas—Who Never Went Away—To Steal Election 2020Loudly tooting the horn for the so-called return of President Barack Obama to politics today comes the all out duplicitous Fox News.

Former President Barack Obama formally endorsed Joe Biden – his vice president and running mate through two terms and presidential campaigns – in the looming race against President Trump, stepping off the sidelines after withholding support for any candidate for months. (Fox News, April 14, 2020)

Does any one out there believe that hide-y-hole Obama was “keeping his distance”

“Multiple sources familiar with the situation confirmed to Fox News that an endorsement video from Obama will be released later Tuesday.

“Another source told Fox News, “Stay tuned,” when asked about a looming endorsement for Biden.”

Notice how “multiple sources” and “another source” somehow never get named in the Fox story?

“Obama’s past reluctance to back Biden even as the former vice president came closer to the nomination had raised awkward questions about their relationship, but those close to the former president had suggested he was keeping his distance so as not to meddle in the primary process.” (Fox News)

Does any one out there believe that hide-y-hole Obama was “keeping his distance so as not to meddle in the Democrat primary process”?

Those who do may qualify for keeping the doctor they like, the insurance plan they like and a free phone, to boot.

“A Democratic strategist close to Obama’s inner circle told Fox News last week that “at the beginning of the primary process, President Obama made clear that in order for the Democratic Party to be successful in November, Democratic voters would have to select their nominee.” (Fox News)

“But now that Biden is the presumptive Democratic nominee, Obama is entering the political ring anew.”

How could anyone claim that self-appointed “Resistance” leader Obama is entering the political ring “anew”?

“The source emphasized that the former president made it clear at the start of the primary process that once it was over, he would “campaign vigorously in the general election.” (Fox News)

“The expected video comes a day after Sen. Bernie Sanders, who was Biden’s last remaining primary rival until he dropped out last week, officially endorsed the former vice president.

“The backing by Sanders—the democratic socialist firebrand from Vermont—will help Biden as he tries to win over Sanders’ legions of younger and progressive supporters.

Fox News describes Commie Sanders as “the democratic socialist firebrand from Vermont

Fox News describes Commie Sanders as “the democratic socialist firebrand from Vermont”!

“Fox News confirmed recently that Obama and Biden have held several conversations in the past couple of weeks. And Biden gave details on one of those conversations – telling donors at a virtual fundraiser earlier this month that he had recently asked his old boss for advice on choosing a running mate. (Fox News)

“So I called President Obama, not as to who but how soon you have to start,” the former vice president shared.

“The backing by Obama will also help Biden as he tries to unite a fractious party, as he prepares to challenge Trump in the general election. According to most recent polls of the former president, Obama remains extremely popular among Democrats.

“Obama, Biden, Sanders, and Democratic Party leaders are all trying to avoid a repeat of the 2016 election, when Sanders endorsed nominee Hillary Clinton in July of that year after a long and bitter primary battle. But plenty of his supporters either stood on the sidelines or voted for a different candidate in November, helping Trump to upset Clinton and win the White House.

Barack Obama is not as the Fox story suggests “returning” to political life, because the truth is he never left it

“Now that the primary season is over, President Obama can play the role of unifier-in-chief within the Democratic Party,” said Mo Elleithee, the founding executive director of Georgetown University’s Institute of Politics and Public Service and a Fox News contributor.

“Elleithee, a senior spokesman for Hillary Clinton’s 2008 presidential campaign who later served as communications director for the Democratic National Committee, said that Obama’s also “an important voice during these tumultuous times. As polling shows that President Trump’s handling of this crisis is sliding, President Obama can help make the case for Joe Biden’s very different approach.”

DNC stalwarts as Fox News contributors remain all over election coverage at the the once fair and balanced Fox News.

First came two-time former DNC chair Donna Brazile.  Now it’s Mo Elleithee.

Barack Obama is not as the Fox story suggests “returning” to political life, because the truth is he never left it.

The coming release of the ex-president’s official Biden endorsement video coincides with Michelle Obama throwing her ‘non-partisan’  When We All Vote initiative behind Democrat legislation seeking to expand access to mail-in voting—and early voting amid the coronavirus outbreak in the U.S.

“Americans should never have to choose between making their voices heard and keeping themselves and their families safe,” Obama said in a statement. “Expanding access to vote-by-mail, online voter registration and early voting are critical steps for this moment—and they’re long overdue.” (CNN, April 13, 2020)

We don’t yet know where the virus came from, how far it will go, but we certainly know who it’s being used against

“The effort backed by the former first lady comes as Democrats increase their calls for states to expand mail-in and early voting, while some Republicans have echoed President Donald Trump’s opposition to expanding the practice amid the coronavirus pandemic. The crisis has caused scores of large gatherings to be canceled or postponed, including primary contests, several of which have been pushed into the summer.

“As the calls have increased, Trump has repeatedly dismissed the notion of a nationwide vote-by-mail system and falsely claimed that mail-in voting is the source of widespread voter fraud.

Are Doctors Tony Fauci and Deborah Birx coronavirus “mitigation” charts really helping to mitigate a Trump 2020 victory to a Democrat one?

We don’t yet know where the virus came from, how far it will go, but we certainly know who it’s being used against.

While the president is trashed daily by the Democrats, Hollywood, the media including the White House Press Corps, both Obamas, via Fox News are working to steal Election 2020.

Trump Knows Starvation is Not an Option for America


We do know the situation is dire and the president is acting to avert a catastrophe.

Cliff Kincaid image

Re-Posted from the Canada Free Press By  —— Bio and ArchivesApril 14, 2020

Trump Knows Starvation is Not an Option for AmericaWith food shortages looming, President Trump is moving to reopen the U.S. economy. This has to be done, and anybody who wants America to survive as a superpower, rather than a banana republic, knows it.

Trump realizes that if the advice of the health “experts” is followed to its logical conclusion, bananas won’t even be available on our dinner tables. The “experts” want to eradicate a disease even if it means eradicating the people who might get it. That is unacceptable. America can do better.

In the name of saving the nation from coronavirus, the health “experts” have jeopardized our food supply, as one of the largest pork processing facilities in the U.S., representing four to five percent of U.S. pork production, has closed in South Dakota.

Kenneth M. Sullivan, president and chief executive officer, for Smithfield Foods, said,

“The closure of this facility, combined with a growing list of other protein plants that have shuttered across our industry, is pushing our country perilously close to the edge in terms of our meat supply. It is impossible to keep our grocery stores stocked if our plants are not running. These facility closures will also have severe, perhaps disastrous, repercussions for many in the supply chain, first and foremost our nation’s livestock farmers. These farmers have nowhere to send their animals.”

Let’s face it: the lockdown never really made sense, as food production and supplies had to continue for the sake of the many. Now, even that is in jeopardy, which is why Trump has to act.

Under the scenario being pushed by the liberal media opponents of Trump, the economy will be destroyed to the point where people will be dying of starvation rather than the virus. In fact, America may face the worst of two bad options – more deaths from the virus, and more deaths from food shortages and starvation.

Trump has threatened the global dreams of the “progressives” that are turning into nightmares for the American people

In the fact of this threat, which New York Governor Andrew Cuomo understands, he assembled a group of governors to reopen their economies on their terms. But that’s not good enough. There has to be a plan for the entire nation.

Trump’s bold action is bad news for Trump’s opponents in the Democratic Party, who are counting on chaos to elect Joe Biden in November. Left-wing writer Jeff Faux fears that Trump will run for reelection “as champion of the people’s need to get back to work” while Democrats will be cast as obstructionists.

Faux, a Trump critic and well-known writer on economics, understands that Trump has the upper hand against the presumed Democratic Party nominee Joe Biden, whose “age is showing,” has “little charisma, often misspeaks and is not a strong debater.” In short, Biden will look weak, and Trump will look strong.

Appropriately enough, the Jeff Faux piece appears in a publication called “The Globalist.” From the start, Trump has threatened the global dreams of the “progressives” that are turning into nightmares for the American people. Their coddling and buildup of China has put us in this precarious position.

America’s existence as a nation based on the concept of economic and political freedom hangs in the balance

The president declared at his Monday briefing that he could and would, if necessary, override state and local officials who stand in the way of reopening America and keeping food on the dinner table. The media acted alarmed by the prospect that Trump would use the same kind of executive authority used in the past by such presidents as Abraham Lincoln and FDR. But these are extraordinary times and America’s existence as a nation based on the concept of economic and political freedom hangs in the balance.

Trump promised to provide legal justification for his actions, but it is not really necessary. A famous book in political science, Constitutional Dictatorship by Clinton Rossiter, provides the framework. The word “dictatorship” sounds ominous, but the fact is that, under national emergency declarations, the president has the complete and total authority to save the nation from an external or internal threat. Trump has to act and he knows it. He has all the emergency powers he needs. They were given to him by Congress.

Rossiter, an American historian and political scientist at Cornell University, was an acknowledged expert on the Constitution who wrote 20 books. Lincoln used emergency powers to win the Civil War and FDR used them to wage World War II and rebuild America’s industrial capacity.

 

We are today involved in our own civil war

We are today involved in our own civil war, in terms of a polarized electorate, but the real danger, as Trump knows, is that the source of the coronavirus, Communist China, stands to gain geopolitically if America goes down the drain.

At the Monday briefing, crazed liberal reporters confronted Trump, with one asking what he was doing about China, if indeed China had covered-up the nature of the virus when it emerged last year. Everybody knows that China lies and cheats, and that it did so in this case, using the U.N.’s World Health Organization as a front.

Trump replied that he didn’t have to tell her, and that she would be the last to know anyway. The reply was an indication that things are happening behind-the-scenes that many of us don’t know about. For obvious reasons, Trump will not discuss publicly at this time what has to be done about the China threat. The immediate need is to save the Republic.

We do know the situation is dire and the president is acting to avert a catastrophe.

Passport to the Brave New World: the vaccine


If you don’t know what freedom is, better figure it out now

Jon Rappoport image

Re-Posted from the Canada Free Press By  —— Bio and ArchivesApril 14, 2020

Passport to the Brave New World: the vaccineIhave already written about the currency reset and other features of a technocratic future waiting in the wings. —-New levels of visible surveillance, social credit scores, universal guaranteed income, Internet of Things, energy-use quotas, smart cities.

—-Events can move in several directions, going forward.  In this article, I explore one of those directions.

The occasion is this fake pandemic; the big hammer is the vaccine against the phony COVID.

DNA vaccine: PERMANENTLY alter the genetic makeup of the recipient

(To read about Jon’s mega-collection, The Matrix Revealedclick here.)

As Fauci mentioned a couple of months ago, it could be a DNA vaccine—-new technology—-which means it is really gene therapy.  Synthesized genes are injected into the body.  They purportedly set up immunity.  Actually, they PERMANENTLY alter the genetic makeup of the recipient.

As you can imagine, this creates the opportunity to put many different genes into humans.  To try to invent “new humans.”

The so-called immunity certificates Fauci is now talking about?  They would be issued to people who test positive on the new antibody tests for COVID-19—-which is an interesting turnaround, because, since 1984, positive tests results have generally been taken to mean “infected.”  Why the shift?

Because there is a need for these immunity certificates—-as an INTRO to condition the population to an IDEA.

If and when the COVID vaccine arrives, the certificates would be used to signify immunity for all those who take the shot.

It would function as a license.  Your passport into the Brave New World.  You’re “immune,” so you’re allowed to move out of fear mode.  And circulate and travel and enter schools…

Protection Without a Vaccine

For DNA vaccines, the reference is the New York Times, 3/15/15, “Protection Without a Vaccine.” It describes the frontier of research. Here are key quotes that illustrate the use of synthetic genes to “protect against disease,” while changing the genetic makeup of humans. This is not science fiction:

“By delivering synthetic genes into the muscles of the [experimental] monkeys, the scientists are essentially re-engineering the animals to resist disease.”

“‘The sky’s the limit,’ said Michael Farzan, an immunologist at Scripps and lead author of the new study.”

“The first human trial based on this strategy – called immunoprophylaxis by gene transfer, or I.G.T. – is underway, and several new ones are planned.”  [That was five years ago.]

“I.G.T. is altogether different from traditional vaccination. It is instead a form of gene therapy. Scientists isolate the genes that produce powerful antibodies against certain diseases and then synthesize artificial versions. The genes are placed into viruses and injected into human tissue, usually muscle.”

Synthetic gene is incorporated into the recipient’s own DNA

Here is the punchline:

“The viruses invade human cells with their DNA payloads, and the synthetic gene is incorporated into the recipient’s own DNA. If all goes well, the new genes instruct the cells to begin manufacturing powerful antibodies.”

Read that again: “the synthetic gene is incorporated into the recipient’s own DNA.”

Alteration of the human genetic makeup.

Not just a “visit.” Permanent residence.

The Times article taps Dr. David Baltimore for an opinion:

“Still, Dr. Baltimore says that he envisions that some people might be leery of a vaccination strategy that means altering their own DNA, even if it prevents a potentially fatal disease.”

Yes, some people might be leery. If they have two or three working brain cells.

New CRISPR gene-editing: the extreme dangers

This is genetic roulette with a loaded gun.

And the further implications are clear.  Vaccines can be used as a cover for the injections of any and all genes, whose actual purpose is unannounced.

The vaccine masters have a problem.  They know their genetic technology is far from perfect. Plans to re-engineer the human race are not a simple one two three.

For example, consider the latest and greatest genetic tool, called CRISPR.

Here is a backgrounder I wrote a year ago.

New CRISPR gene-editing: the extreme dangers

Technologynetworks[dot]com (6/26/17):

“CRISPR gene editing is taking biomedical research by storm. Providing the ultimate toolbox for genetic manipulation, many new applications for this technology are now being investigated and established. CRISPR systems are already delivering superior genetic models for fundamental disease research, drug screening and therapy development, rapid diagnostics, in vivo editing and correction of heritable conditions and now the first human CRISPR clinical trials.”

All hail.

It’s called CRISPR, a much faster, more precise, and cheaper technique for editing genes.  Researchers are in love with it.  You can find hundreds of articles and studies fawning over the innovation.

At phys[dot]org, however, we have this, ahem, warning note (5/29/17):

”…a new study published in Nature Methods has found that the gene-editing technology can introduce hundreds of unintended mutations into the genome.”

Oops.

“In the new study, the researchers sequenced the entire genome of mice that had undergone CRISPR gene editing in the team’s previous study and looked for all mutations, including those that only altered a single nucleotide.”

“The researchers determined that CRISPR had successfully corrected a gene that causes blindness, but Kellie Schaefer, a PhD student in the lab of Vinit Mahajan, MD, PhD, associate professor of ophthalmology at Stanford University, and co-author of the study, found that the genomes of two independent gene therapy recipients [mice] HAD SUSTAINED MORE THAN 1500 SINGLE-NUCLEOTIDE MUTATIONS AND MORE THAN 100 LARGER [GENE] DELETIONS AND INSERTIONS. None of these DNA mutations were predicted by computer algorithms that are widely used by researchers to look for off-target effects.”  (Emphasis is mine.)

“‘Researchers who aren’t using whole genome sequencing to find off-target effects may be missing potentially important mutations,’ Dr. Tsang says.  ‘Even a single nucleotide change can have a huge impact’.”

Genetic roulette is alive and well

Genetic roulette is alive and well.

Spin the wheel, see what numbers come up.  Good effects, bad effects, who knows?  Step right up and take your chances.

Of course, researchers who admit these tremendous problems remain optimistic.  They look forward to “refining the method.”  That’s a cover for: “we really don’t know what we’re doing right now.”

Unfortunately, much science operates in this fashion.  Launch a new technology, and turn a blind eye to the consequences.  For example, place mercury, a devastating neurotoxin, in vaccines.  What harm could result—-aside from the destruction of children’s brains.

Here is more gushing PR, otherwise known as throwing stuff at the wall and seeing what sticks: “There are weekly press releases and updates on new advances [in CRISPR] and discoveries made possible with this technology; the first evidence is now emerging that CRISPR-Cas9 could provide cures for major diseases including cancers and devastating human viruses such as HIV-1.” (technologynetworks[dot]com)

The train has left the station.

Taking a stand against mandatory vaccines—-any and all vaccines—-is more important than ever

And just in case you think only the most careful and competent leading lights of the genetic research community would be permitted to get within a mile of CRISPR, here is more from technologynetworks[dot]com:

“CRISPR-Cas9 systems, tools and basic methodology are very accessible as ready to go toolkits that anyone with lab space and an idea can pick up and start working with…In response to a growing need, companies such as Desktop Genetics have developed open access software to accelerate CRISPR experimentation and analysis.”

That’s good to know.  “Anyone with lab space and an idea” can jump on board and have at it.

Do your own cross breeding of the pregnant phrases, “What could possibly go wrong,” and “Nothing to see here, move along,” and you’ve summarized the situation.

“They say they cured my anemia, but now I turn green and purple and I keep falling down.”

If all this isn’t enough to make you see the dangers of CRISPR, consider this statement about engineering human immune cells (T-cells) in a “safer” way.  From statnews[dot]com (June 23, 2013):

“The experiment would alter the immune system’s T cells only after they’re removed from a patient. That gives scientists the chance to screen the CRISPR’d cells to make sure only the three intended genes, all involved in making T cells find and destroy tumor cells, are altered. But after those T cells are infused back into a patient to fight melanoma, sarcoma, or myeloma, the CRISPR system can keep editing DNA, and tracking such edits becomes like following a polar bear in a snowstorm.”

Not very comforting.  Once set in motion, even under the most protected and limited conditions, CRISPR can keep on working, scrambling genes in unknown ways.

So…when it comes to DNA vaccines, aka gene therapy, a plan to precisely re-engineer humans could quite easily descend into uncontrolled chaos.

And the controllers and elite funders of the vaccine know that.

What to do?

With the global population as their guinea pigs, perhaps they would start small.  Introduce the slightest possible gene-alteration, stand back and see what happens.  Try out a gene that would ordinarily—-hopefully—-achieve next to nothing.  Try to measure the results.

Viewed from one angle, the whole fake epidemic is a set-up for the vaccine, and for mandatory vaccines.

I have written about the special exemption from liability recently issued by the US Dept. of Health and Human Services.  Basically, anyone associated with pharmaceutical strategies undertaken “against the coronavirus” cannot be sued, regardless of “adverse effects” of medicines or vaccines.

Taking a stand against mandatory vaccines—-any and all vaccines—-is more important than ever.

The Crisis in Agriculture


What is taking place in agriculture as a direct result of this contrived virus pandemic is beyond contemplation. The agriculture industry can provide some insight on what’s going on. Wheat has rallied to 5870 during March, just poking through the broad uptrend channel from the Great Depression. There is a major crisis unfolding, in part, because some workers needed for harvest are locked down as in Europe and cannot move from Poland to Spain. This is a serious problem. Those who advocate this lockdown like Gates and Fauci are clueless when it comes to the ripple effect through the rest of the economy.

The climate has turned bitterly cold and then there was excessive flooding in 2019. The trade war with China did not help. Farmers were already in a weak position before this concocted virus scare that has been used to justify shutting down the economy for something that is far less deadly than the annual flu. Many farmers were already in serious debt because of low profits and high taxes back in 2019 before this virus scare. This is merely pushing many into bankruptcy.

Now we have many restaurants, the entertainment industry, travel from airplane to cruise lines all shut down. The demand for produce has been declining. Prices are declining as a direct result of a drop in demand. We can see that the price of tomatoes has been falling in 2020 due to this virus shut down. Some farmers can’t make a profit and have started to just plow their crops under rather than harvesting them simply because it’s less of a loss than trying to bring the crops to market and migrant workers are unavailable. This is only setting up the crisis ahead for a rise in agricultural products.

We can see that 2020 was a Directional Change and a turning point with high volatility which has indeed come to pass. If we see a sharp low here in 2020 and a collapse in our productive capability because some farmers cannot survive, the next high in prices should come in 2023.
