'Operation Warp Speed': Trump says he's mobilizing military to distribute potential coronavirus vaccine

US military
President Trump said Thursday he would prepare the U.S. military to disburse COVID-19 vaccines when they are ready.

"We're mobilizing our military and other forces, but we're mobilizing our military on the basis that we do have a vaccine," Trump said in an interview with Fox Business's Maria Bartiromo.

"You know, it's a massive job to give this vaccine. Our military is now being mobilized so at the end of the year we're going to be able to give it to a lot of people very, very rapidly," he added.

Trump said the mobilization process for distributing a vaccine is "starting now" to get a head start once it is finished, adding, "We will have a tremendous force because assuming we get it, then you have to distribute it."

Comment: We here have come up with a better name for this rollout of useless and potentially harmful vaccines: 'Operation Warped Deed'. In any case, we're not the only ones to see how this new policy is wrong on all kinds of levels:




A few had a slightly different take on this news - which may be right on target:

Harmless tree hugger or IRA boss? Gerry Adams' vindication matters little - the English simply don't care about Northern Ireland

The Supreme Court found Adams was detained in prison without a fair trial, but few in Britain will be concerned about this victory for the eccentric Republican figurehead who hugs trees and loves teddy bears.

You'd be sadly mistaken if you presumed Gerry Adams' historic legal victory on Wednesday will make much difference in the grand scheme of things.

The former Sinn Fein president has had two convictions for attempted escapes from the Maze Prison in 1973 and 1974 - which saw an additional four and a half years added to his sentences - quashed by the Supreme Court. It deemed the original detention "unlawful" because his intern[ment] without trial had not been "considered personally" by the then-Northern Ireland Secretary, Willie Whitelaw.

Perhaps it would be a very different narrative today if the British government had accepted liability of their own volition, but they allowed Adams' case to drag on for 10 years.

And they themselves had to be dragged - almost kicking and screaming, just like when Adams himself was illegally interned - into their highest court in the land, before five judges who ruled in favour of the Irishman.

Comment: Gerry Adams won his war with the UK deep state when his (former - he's retired now) Sinn Fein party became the most powerful pilitical party in both the North and South of Ireland in February this year.

Alas, Covid-1984 intervened, and Ireland is now ruled by a technocratic 'emergency' govt that keeps Sinn Fein out of power - and will likely do so until civilization falls apart.

War on pineapple pizza? 'Foreign interference'-obsessed FBI describes US media tactics in its pre-election poster

The Portland, Oregon FBI field office and an obscure federal agency seem to think pineapple pizza has everything to do with foreign election meddling. Thing is, their watch for divisive tactics is looking in the wrong direction.

"Americans today face a very real threat from those who seek to undermine our elections through online foreign influence operations. It's as simple as pineapple pizza," the office tweeted on Wednesday, alongside a poster that uses the odd topping combination to illustrate how "foreign adversaries" seek to divide Americans online.

Massachusetts contact tracing program handed to Clinton-linked NGO with questionable past

A new contact tracing program was recently unveiled in Massachusetts in partnership with Partners in Health, an NGO with links to US regime change operations, big pharma and the Clinton Foundation.

Last week, the State of Massachusetts began implementing a contact tracing program in partnership with a Boston-based organization with ties to the biggest names in big pharma, the George Soros' Open Society and the Clinton Foundation. Those ties go back decades and include U.S. intelligence assets and regime-change operations in Haiti including Operation Uphold Democracy, in which American troops invaded the Caribbean nation to clean up after the CIA-sponsored coup against Jean-Bertrand Aristide.

In April, Massachusetts Governor Charlie Baker announced the partnership, called the COVID-19 Community Tracing Collaborative, with Partners in Health (PIH), a non-profit organization with highly questionable patronage and an even more dubious history.

The program will be led by PIH's chief medical officer, Dr. Joia Mukherjee, who described the goals of the contact tracing initiative as well as some of the authorities granted to PIH by the state of Massachusetts to NPR, such as making assessments about whether families have "the ability, the space, the food needed, the employment, the money to safely quarantine" and assigning social service assistants in case they fail to meet the necessary criteria.

Comment: Looks like the Clintons just found their new cash cow as they try to stave off investigations into 'Russiagate' and their various other dirty dealings. See also:

Biggs: Dr. Fauci 'Scared the crap out of Americans'

Rep. Andy Biggs
House Freedom Caucus Chairman Rep. Andy Biggs, R-Arizona, says all three democratic witnesses testifying before the House Judiciary Committee came in with preconceived bias.
During an interview with Fox Across America's Jimmy Failla, House Freedom Caucus Chairman Andy Biggs, R-AZ, criticized Dr. Anthony Fauci, member of the White House Coronavirus Task Force, for 'scaring the crap out of Americans' with his push to lock down the country and the models he used to recommend his solution to mitigate the spread of the novel coronavirus.

"The reality is he is scared the crap out of Americans," Biggs said. "That's what he's done. And with his co-folks in the left wing media, they've scared people. You've got businesses that are afraid to open. They're scared to death to open because someone is going to get sick or they get sick. He has scared people who have children and he is gone back and forth. I mean now you don't wear a mask, people look at you. But it was just a month ago, when they were saying don't wear a mask because that's the perfect way to get sick, if you wear a mask. You don't wear a mask if you are sick. So now this is gone to everybody supposed to wear a mask. Fauci has relied on bad models."

Revealed: UK government broke inspection rules at arms factory supplying Saudis in Yemen war

A fighter jet factory in England providing essential parts for the Saudi air force has not been checked for over three years, missing the government's own deadlines. Without supplies from this factory, it is likely Saudi Arabia would be unable to continue bombing Yemen during the coronavirus pandemic.

The British government has failed to meet its official criteria for conducting "regular and thorough inspections" every three years at a highly controversial military export site, Declassified has found.

Inspectors last visited an arms factory run by the UK's largest arms exporter, BAE Systems in Warton, Lancashire, more than three years ago, trade minister Ranil Jayawardena told Parliament on Monday. He refused to tell MPs the outcome of that inspection claiming it was "commercially sensitive".

Magnier: Iraq in the balance between Iran and the US

Iran and Iraqi military
Iran and the US have been at war since 1979, when the "Islamic Republic" took power. This war will continue as long as the US seeks to defeat Iran, which in turn seeks to force the US out of the Middle East. Occasionally, the war manifests as direct clashes between the two countries, but usually it takes place on the territory of Iran's allies. These allies are becoming stronger and powerful enough to be reckoned with. This growth is imposing Iran as a regional power with influence in several countries around the Middle East — from Palestine, Lebanon, Syria, and Yemen to Iraq, where direct US-Iran confrontation has shown the ability of both countries to inflict damage on one another. By accepting the election of the new Iraqi Prime Minister Mustafa al-Kadhimi, the two countries have reached an unspoken agreement for de-escalation allowing the new Prime Minister to achieve a balance of power. This balance will be difficult to maintain in the face of new domestic challenges Iraq is facing, related not only to the Iran-US struggle but also to the devastating economic recession caused by the response to COVID-19 and the low price of oil.

Coronavirus cases in Georgia, Florida continue to decline despite business openings

business open
Some states engaged in reopening their economies have not yet seen coronavirus outbreaks feared by health officials.

In particular, Georgia and Florida, which were projected to see a sharp rise in new cases, have not experienced major new outbreaks in the past week. The average number of new daily cases in Florida declined by 14 percent over the past week, and Georgia's average new daily cases dropped by 12 percent during the same time period, according to an analysis by Axios.

The data on new cases is imperfect because of variations between states in the amount and frequency of coronavirus testing. As of Wednesday, Florida has confirmed almost 42,000 coronavirus cases, while Georgia has confirmed 35,000 cases.

Trump is deluded on China: 'We could cut off the whole relationship'

President Trump made one of his strongest comments yet in dealing with China in the wake of the communist country's handling of the coronavirus pandemic.

"There are many things we could do," Trump told FOX Business' Maria Bartiromo Thursday. "We could cut off the whole relationship."

The Trump administration has been mulling avenues to possibly punish or seek financial compensation from China for what it sees as withholding information about the virus.

The president, appearing exclusively on "Mornings with Maria," raised the impact of ending relations.

Comment: Trump obviously has much too great of an opinion of the resilience of the American economy. This isn't surprising as most Americans think in this way. When such illusions have their influence on decisions during a time when hyperinflation is on its way and there is no domestic or international support for the strength of the dollar, it hastens the coming disaster.
