1. What if your kids' board-certified pediatrician told you in 1995 he believed sloppy infection control at Chinese bio-labs caused seasonal flu infections emanating from China? And you had the proof Wuhan has a new bio lab? What would you think?
2. And what if, when you were getting your Political Science undergraduate degree during the Cold War in Chinese Politics studying the millions of Chinese the CCP doomed to starve annually? What would you think if you knew that essentially the same folks are in charge now?
3. The Chinese are not responsible for it. But I'm not ready to close the book on the CCP just like I'm not cutting Trump slack for trying to make money off the testing and then screwing it up because there as no redundancy in the supply. The rest has been a cover up. Again.

1. A Glimmer of Hope: The Fed’s move today to buy up much of the investment grade commercial bonds now gives the Fed the ability to ease debt-service pressure on the over-leveraged firms that make up a vast number of stocks traded on Wall St.
2. If the loan covenants were triggered it might have started an avalanche of massive Bankruptcies almost certain to wipe out all of the involved firms’ stock values. The rule is common class equity shares get zero in a Chapter 11 plan and the stock is cancelled.
3. Used to be able to paper your walls with it. Now it’s just a zero on your brokerage statement.

Banks and other financial institutions including state retirements, and insurance companies are now flush with cash and their balance sheets moved these usually liquid asset out.

1. I looked a the upcoming primaries for @AOC @IlhanMN & @RashidaTlaib who made the choice to team up over the weekend with a soundly-defeated @BernieSanders for reasons that are baffling to me. They are all going to face competition for their first attempt at re-election.
2. IMO the ones will multiple opponents may fare better for the same reasons that Trump won the GOP nod and why Bernie lost the Dem's nod when the moderates all formed around @JoeBiden.

So far, Omar's Aug 11 primary has 3 opponents. Tlalib has only one for Aug 4.
3. Ocasio-Cortez (June23) has four but her district will likely put forward a very well financed moderate that I think has good chance to take her seat.

Now these three appear permanently tied to Sanders who shows again he will torch the Democrats to advance his revolution.

Nobody wants to watch another lying @GOP. Get #MoscowMitch off the screen @MSNBC @mitchellreports .
@SenSchumer you need to get in there and address everything @senatemajldr McConnell just said. Call him the Charles Koch's lackey who would leave American workers to be cast out on the street for bailouts for rich donors. Call Koch a mass murderer.
Go after Trump family trying to make money from testing and the delay in doing anything because Charles Koch says no to a federal govt response. Make Trump listen to an attack on him in reaction to McConnell. Turn Trump against @senatemajldr.

Thread of 3 Articles: Does #China have enough #US dollars to survive the US #tradewar? - China’s US$3.1 trillion in foreign exchange reserves may not be sufficient to support a crisis in the economy, analysts say scmp.com/economy/china-…
This is the first article in a three-part series looking at China’s US dollar shortage risks amid the trade war with the United States as it plans to reform and internationalise its economy.
Beijing’s increasing scrutiny of US dollar usage by Chinese companies & individuals, in the absence of any signs of a financial crisis, + accelerating efforts to lure in foreign capital, have raised suspicions that the China's economy is worried about running short of US dollars.

#China backtracked on nearly all aspects of #US trade deal - All of us that follow & know China knew that this was never going to fly. You can't negotiate with a rogue, predatory state like China. This is for the better. mobile.reuters.com/article/amp/id…
The diplomatic cable from Beijing arrived in Washington late on Friday night, with systematic edits to a nearly 150-page draft trade agreement that would blow up months of negotiations. The document was riddled with reversals by China that undermined core US demands, sources said
In each of the 7 chapters of the draft trade deal, China deleted its commitments to change laws to resolve core complaints that caused the US to launch a trade war: theft of US IP & trade secrets; forced tech transfers; competition policy; access to financial services, etc, etc.

#Chinese. #Drones. #Rhinos
The narrative is that "Africans poach" We do not. The truth is that Chinese in #Laikipia are a threat for locals, for Rhinos & Elephants. #Kenyans need to be on high Alert.
Thanks Micheal

Unfortunately, Chinese are invading #Meru as well - another Rhino Sanctuary through #thebigwhitelie of 'investing in' a 5 star hotel. Can we stop this via civil suit before Gov.Kiraitu Murungi @SenKiraitu sells our Heritage?

MERU, KENYA: "Mayor Liu Xiaohua of Huangshan Municipal from #China has led a delegation of Chinese investors who want to build tourist resorts in Mt Kenya - To @SenKiraitu - this is a DANGEROUS move.
