May Day: Trump To Reopen The US Economy By May-1



Donald Trump Pressing to Reopen U.S. by May 1: President Donald Trump wants to reopen the country by May 1, according to a report in the Washington Post.

The president remains reluctant to publicly set a date, but the Post cites anonymous sources that say behind the scenes, Trump is telling advisers that May 1 is the day that Americans should be allowed to return to work.

On Wednesday, Trump declined to give an “aspirational” date, noting that he was immediately criticized for hoping the country would reopen by Easter. “I said it would be very tough, and I was criticized for that, so I don’t like giving dates,” he said on Wednesday during the White House press briefing, but he added, “I think we will be sooner rather than later.”

The Crimes of Ethiopian Communist Tedros Adhanom



WHO’s Tedros Adhanom Should be put on Trial for Crimes Against Humanity: Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, as well as being the first WHO director without a medical degree, also has a somewhat political background compared to his predecessors. On his online biography, the WHO lays out his qualifications as Ethiopian Minister of Health from 2002 to 2012, impressive stuff.

Aside from his medical credentials, Tedros happens to be a member of the Tigray People’s Liberation Front (TPLF) which is an organisation about as peaceful as its name suggests. Founded as a communist revolutionary party that came to power in 1991, it led a guerrilla campaign against the Mengistu dictatorship and formed a coalition with two other ethnic parties after his exile.

Over time, the TPLF began to exert more and more influence over the other two parties. Most military generals and key leaders within the government are Tigray, including the Prime Minister who ruled the country for 21 years before his death. The Tigray represent only 6% of the population of Ethiopia, one of the major ethnic groups are the Amhara who mostly made up the Mengistu regime.

Chinese Fuck With Bats: Bats Fuck Chinese, and Us Too

(Wuhan Virus Outbreak proves we should leave the BATs alone, especially the Cave Ones.)

When I was growing up, in a little island town called Mawgyun in the Irrawaddy Delta of Burma, the fruit bats or flying foxes were all over the town. Thousands and thousands of them bats flying out at dusk just after sunset to feed on the fruit trees in the jungle beyond the town or the mango and guava and Jack-fruit groves on the town's outskirt and flying back into the town to sleep hanging upside down at dawn just before the sunrise.

What I still remember is they were so discrete flying in and out we saw them only when they were  asleep hanging on the huge trees when we children woke up and came outside to go to school or to play. There was a couple of huge koke-ko trees by the wide road just outside of our house and the bats were all hanging upside down quietly on the high branches during the days.

When I was growing up we boys were quite rough and brutal as any semi-rural boy would be in that part of  primitive world. Civil war was raging around us and most of the adults like my grown-up cousins and uncles from the town's People Militia (Pyi-thu-sit) were armed with ubiquitous .303 Lee-Enfield rifles ready to fight the insurgents from the Communist villages or the Karen ethnic villages.

China Cremated Alive The Wuhan Virus Victims?



Wuhan Funeral Homes Burned Coronavirus Victims Alive: Locals in Wuhan, where the Chinese coronavirus pandemic originated, have heard screams coming from funeral home furnaces, and some treated in hospitals say they saw workers put living coronavirus patients in body bags, Radio Free Asia (RFA) reported on Monday.

RFA noted that it could not independently verify that the Chinese Communist Party was burning coronavirus patients alive, nor has the Communist Party confirmed or denied the rumors. Yet the rumors persist that, to make room for new patients in Wuhan’s overcrowded hospitals, medical staff chose older patients less likely to survive the infection and shipped them to incinerators while they were still alive and conscious.

RFA quoted a source “close to the funeral industry” identified only as Ma who said that he had heard reports of “people restrained and forced into body bags when they were still moving.” “Some people are saying that … there are video clips of screams coming from funeral homes, from inside the furnaces … which tells us that some people were taken to the funeral homes while they were still alive,” Ma added.

Trump Slams WHO "China-Centric": Funding Cut?



President Trump slammed the World Health Organization (WHO) for its "China-centric" views Tuesday, adding that the global health agency's projections and pronouncements about the coronavirus pandemic has been routinely wrong.

In an interview with Fox News' "Hannity," Trump said that the WHO had "strongly recommended" against America restricting travel from China, one of their earliest flawed pronouncements. 

"The W.H.O. really blew it. For some reason, funded largely by the United States, yet very China centric. We will be giving that a good look. Fortunately I rejected their advice on keeping our borders open to China early on. Why did they give us such a faulty recommendation?" Trump also tweeted in early morning April-8.

"The World Health [Organization] -- very China-centric as I say --  basically everything was very positive for China," Trump told host Sean Hannity. "Don't close your borders, they strongly recommended ... That would've been a disaster, that would've been a total disaster. And literally, they called every shot wrong," the president added. "They didn't want to say where [coronavirus] came from. For many years, we've been funding the World Health Organization."

No Lockdown In Sweden: Everything Is Awesome!



We should all move to Awesome Sweden!
Sweden is adopting a 'flexible' coronavirus response and betting on 'social obedience': Jens Magnusson can continue with his daily life relatively undisturbed. If he wants to. Under the COVID-19 tackling approach taken by the Swedish Government, he can go to the gym, meet friends at a bar and join a bootcamp in park.

Sweden has so far recorded more than 400 coronavirus deaths — about 10 times as many as Australia. Its population is around half that of Australia. But its Government is standing by its relatively relaxed approach to the pandemic. Rather than telling people what to do — or, worse, telling them off — the Government is asking Swedes to do the right thing, and giving them the liberty to prove they are responsible citizens.

While the Government has taken some measures, such as limiting social gatherings to 50 people and closing high schools and universities, experts say it is betting on Sweden's "social obedience". But that's a lot of trust to put in your people at a time of global pandemic, and a gamble that could have catastrophic consequences.

Lockdown Starvation Is Killing The Poor Before The Virus

Nearly 10% of Mumbai population
is now relying on food-charity.
India has been put in lockdown to halt the spread of the coronavirus outbreak. People have been told to stay indoors, but for many daily-wage earners this is not an option. Ali Hasan in Delhi has no money to buy food after the shop he worked in closed.

Labour Chowk in Noida is usually brimming with hundreds of men looking for jobs as construction labourers. The small intersection of roads in this suburban area of Delhi is a hotspot where builders come to hire workers. But it was eerily quiet when I drove there on Sunday during the initial lockdown. Everything was still - one could never imagine listening to the sound of birds chirping in such a busy area.

But I did - almost in disbelief. I soon spotted a group of men huddled in a corner. I stopped and asked them, from a safe distance, if they were following the lockdown. Ramesh Kumar, who comes from Banda district in Uttar Pradesh state, said that he knew "there won't be anybody to hire us, but we still took our chances". "I earn 600 rupees ($8; £6.50) every day and I have five people to feed. We will run out of food in a few days. I know the risk of coronavirus, but I can't see my children hungry," he said.

Wuhan Outbreak: China's Disgusting Cover-up


We have been paying dearly for China's lies. "This is one of the worst cover-ups in human history, and now the world is facing a global pandemic," said Rep. Michael T. McCaul, the ranking Republican member of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, before the US intelligence community concluded, in a classified report to the White House, that China has concealed the origin and extent of the catastrophic global coronavirus outbreak.

The Chinese Communist Party's "failure has unleashed a global contagion killing thousands", wrote Cardinal Charles Maung Bo, president of the Federation of Asian Bishops' Conferences, on April 1. "As we survey the damage done to lives around the world, we must ask who is responsible?"

"... there is one government that has primary responsibility for what it has done and what it has failed to do, and that is the CCP [Chinese Communist Party] regime in Beijing. Let me be clear — it is the CCP that has been responsible, not the people of China... Lies and propaganda have put millions of lives around the world in danger... In recent years, we have seen an intense crackdown on freedom of expression in China. Lawyers, bloggers, dissidents and civil society activists have been rounded up and have disappeared."

Patient Zero Huang Yanling Is Dead & Cremated?



The Trail Leading Back to the Wuhan Labs: There’s no proof the coronavirus accidentally escaped from a laboratory, but we can’t take the Chinese government’s denials at face value.

It is understandable that many would be wary of the notion that the origin of the coronavirus could be discovered by some documentary filmmaker who used to live in China. Matthew Tye, who creates YouTube videos, contends he has identified the source of the coronavirus — and a great deal of the information that he presents, obtained from public records posted on the Internet, checks out.

The Wuhan Institute of Virology in China indeed posted a job opening on November 18, 2019, “asking for scientists to come research the relationship between the coronavirus and bats.” The Google translation of the job posting is:
