Jim Breyer, who invested in Microprose, had high praise for Louie. "Gilman Louie is an outstanding entrepreneur. He has exceptional vision...and he has a deep understanding of technology. "

wife of US Surgeon General Dr. Vivek Murthy

🤔

And, didn't Frederick Taylor Gates, advisor to John D. Rockefeller, Sr., design the China Medical Board (CMB) in 1914?

But I digress..

Vivek Murthy was born in Huddersfield, Yorkshire to immigrants from Karnataka, India, the grandson of the late H C Narayana Murthy, former director of Mysore Sugar Company..

N. R. Narayana Murthy was born in Sidlaghatta (Karnataka) in Mysore.. just saying
"Federation of American Scientists (FAS) was founded in 1946 by scientists who worked on the Manhattan Project to develop the first atomic bombs"

In 2017, the MacArthur Foundation awarded a $100 million grant to a proposal submitted by the Sesame Workshop and the International Rescue Committee. The grant was applied to the education of Middle Eastern refugee children

"During her tenure as Transportation Secretary in the Trump administration, the Transportation Department's inspector general found numerous instances where Chao used her office to promote her family's shipping business." - Wikipedia

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elaine_Ch…

Alrighty then...
2021 "While serving as transportation secretary during the Trump administration, Elaine Chao repeatedly used her office staff to help family members who run a shipping business with extensive ties to China.."
archive.ph/YPHiy

Yet in 2014..
When the Chao family shipping company came under scrutiny for a cocaine haul..
thenation.com/article/archiv…
MSM leapt to the defense of the Chao family and Elaine's husband Mitch McConnell..

"Foremost Group is not a “Chinese shipping company.” It’s an American company, based in New York." Washington Post , 2018

washingtonpost.com/news/fact-chec…

That 'fact checking' article needs its own 🧵
This 2018 VOX article is another corker
vox.com/2018/5/7/17326…

That publishing company requires its own🧵too..
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foremost_…
The Foremost Group is a privately held shipping company based in New York City, with subsidiaries registered in the Marshall Islands 👀👇

propublica.org/article/family…
"It operates globally, chartering vessels to companies in the dry bulk shipping industry, and its fleet includes some of the world's largest "capesize" bulk carriers,Its clients include Bunge, Cargill, and Louis Dreyfus."

Oops, don't mention Nicole Junkermann #Epstein moll
🤫
Wait, Foremost Shipping , does business with CARGILL?

> Jonathan Salk , KidSafe #Broward > Client: Cargill

👆We'll take a closer look another time 👇

> Sea Containers

"Foremost has had most of its ships built by China State Shipbuilding, some of them financed by loans from the state-owned Export-Import Bank of China..

Its ships are registered under the flags of Liberia and Hong Kong"
"Elaine Chao was the only cabinet member in the George W. Bush administration to serve for the entirety of his eight years.."
