  1. According to Michael Moore on his podcast Rumble from Wednesday, April 3

    and I’m quoting, from 6 minutes 45 seconds:

    “Something happened at the end of the day, yesterday, Thursday, during the presidential press conference, the daily press conference, about the pandemic. And they wheeled out one of the giant chiefs of staff, admiral from the navy, to make a big a announcement. So Pence brings him up to the podium and here’s the big announcement that right now they are loading on pallets 200,000 face masks for our health professionals. And they are going to fly that plane into New York City today. Land that plane. And then Pence butts in, and he says, ‘help is on the way to public health officials’ And first the admiral said we will get them to the hospitals and then Pence said they aren’t going to the hospital, we’re going to take them to a warehouse, a public health warehouse. And then a reporter started asking some questions, and then did some more research afterwards. And it turns out that the 200,000 face masks that are being loaded onto a navy plane , and landing here in New York City today, are not going to any hospital! It’s a big lie. They just stood there and lied. They are not going to any hospital. You know where they are going? They are going to a warehouse. That part is true. They are going to a warehouse because, as the admiral was forced to explain later, well this is really a commercial effort. This is not a public health/government endeavor. Government is helping private business. The government is flying this planeload of face masks to a warehouse near New York that will then go on the auction block for private corporations to buy and sell these, including buying and selling these to go overseas.”

    end quote.

    I believe Michael Moore. Yet, you will have a find time finding this story in the corporate news. It’s just not there. Maybe somewhere. Please post the reporter’s story if you find it. Thank you.

    1. From Friday April 3

  2. Did China just kick the shit out of the US and Europe with a 10 cent mask? The answer is quite possibly; we might just have had our Suez moment. The masks and a simple instruction, Go Outside During Before March 20 and We Will Arrest You, and now they are back in business selling goods and going to parks and living again. All the while the US has been threatening war, and China has just been working the tech and societal control angles to get the upper hand. Looks like they are winning, which is great for hoping in the US for some form of social safety net to come.

    In the meantime, the US could start pricking people in the feet with a small dose of live virus to get them immune, similar to what we did for Smallpox a century ago. But of course, those at the most risk of infection right now are the gig and Amazon workers, so we can’t do that. No, instead they say it will take a bit to get a vaccine. Wait for it. Wait for it….
