I see London is getting under 100 cases of Bat Clap /day with @ 10 million people….I wud think that is < than get stabbed under the wonderful mayor.
it’s a world-wide Jihad to the upside…reminds me of the kick-off the day after Trump was elected…the everything bubble is back…thank G*d…it’s very difficult to imagine seeing stocks print red again for a very long time…at least until 2 pm today in NY [snort!]
I hope they do take him to court. What he’s doing is weaseling into to politics with buying people so he won’t be jailed. Part of the Hillary gang where people are suicided.
However the people that need to wake up who had their individuality stolen and pigeon holed into one group by the PC propaganda by the left don’t need to bother. If they don’t speak Italian if they can’t read or comprehend or question or need someone else on the left to tell them what to think about it. Just wait and get their gov checks they’re still waiting for and vaccine. Less voters voting their lives away any everyone else’s into slavery.
Just think of all the money and power the s bag just lost.
Now if they would just toss him in jail and execute him for orchestrating this s show we might be able to put all the budding Adolf’s back in their boxes as well.
Better get on it soon as the tyranny and corruption becomes more profound by the day.
Lawsuit Aims to End Smear Campaign by Pro-Vaccine Advocate and Three-Time Endorser of Hillary Clinton
Cambridge, MA – Dr. Shiva Ayyadurai, MIT PhD, the inventor of email, scientist, innovator, and U.S. Senate Candidate (R-MA) has filed a $95 million lawsuit in Federal Court in Boston against Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. for eight instances of defamation. Mr. Kennedy is a pro-vaccine advocate and three-time endorser of Hillary Clinton. Mr. Kennedy’s nephew Joe Kennedy, who supports mandatory vaccinations, is a Democrat candidate in the U.S. Senate election in which Dr. Shiva Ayyadurai is running as a Republican.
Dr. Ayyadurai’s U.S. Senate campaign slogan “Truth Freedom Health” has galvanized millions of supporters and activists of the medical freedom movement.
Dr. Ayyadurai had earlier pointed out the hypocrisy of Mr. Kennedy, who purports to support medical freedom and the environment, but in point of fact had endorsed Hillary Clinton three times, despite knowing Hillary Clinton being a strong proponent of mandatory vaccinations, the largest recipient of contributions from Big Pharma in the 2016 election, and being pro-Monsanto. Moreover, Dr. Ayyadurai publicly shared Mr. Kennedy’s video in which Mr. Kennedy states that he is “fiercely pro-vaccine” and supports government “policies that encourage full vaccination for all Americans.

WASHINGTON — Firearms sales and federal background checks for purchases soared to all-time highs in March as the coronavirus pandemic brought buyers out in record numbers, even though gun dealers were included in orders shutting down businesses in some states.
The FBI conducted 3.7 million background checks last month, according to its latest figures, the highest total since the national instant check system for buyers was launched in 1998 and 1.1 million higher than the number conducted in March 2019.
The period of March 17-21 was an especially busy period for the background check system. More than 210,000 checks were conducted on March 21 alone, the record for a single day.
The March figure also topped the previous high of 3.3 million set in December 2015, after the Obama administration raised the prospect of restricting assault weapons after the deadly mass shooting in San Bernardino, California.
The number of background checks conducted by the FBI, which correlates with approximate gun sales, soared to 27,538,673 — an increase of more than 4 million over 2015. The data doesn’t include many guns privately sold or given to friends and family members. The FBI data was first reported by The Washington Examiner.
The spike in gun sales came in a year dominated by rising fears of international terrorism and the potential for a Hillary Clinton presidency, which some feared would lead to tighter firearm regulations.
Clinton campaigned on strengthening firearms restrictions — a direct foil to President-elect Donald Trump’s campaign message.
A spate of international terrorist attacks also dominated headlines last year, most notably a deadly mass shooting at an Orlando, Fla. nightclub that left 49 people dead and another 53 wounded.
Gun sales also surged shortly after President Barack Obama’s election in 2008. But the increase pales in comparison to the surge in 2016. Since Obama took office, overall gun ownership in the U.S. has more than doubled.
Gun rights have been a hot-button issue throughout Obama’s two terms in the Oval Office, with many critics claiming that the president would clamp down on Second Amendment rights by restricting sales and levying tighter purchasing requirements. But the administration’s efforts to impose new restrictions ultimately did not match those fears.

May 12 – Bloomberg (Jared Dillian): “It’s now clear in hindsight that a global pandemic was one of those things that financial markets never truly considered a real threat. This raises the question of what other so-called black swans might be lurking out there? Here’s one that might happen sooner rather than later: a failed auction of government bonds by the U.S. Treasury Department. Such a notion was unthinkable just a few months ago for the world’s richest economy and one that enjoys the exorbitant privilege of controlling the world’s primary reserve currency. Sure, the chances are still negligible that the government won’t find enough buyers for all the bonds it needs to sell to finance an estimated $3.7 trillion budget deficit. But the point is that the odds, however slim, are probably no longer zero… The reason why is that the U.S. Treasury is starting to auction $3 trillion in the span of a few months. No country at any time has every attempted such an audacious borrowing plan.”
May 13 – Bloomberg (John Ainger, James Hirai and Vivien Lou Chen): “Traders around the world are forging ahead with bets on negative interest rates, even as central banks mount a vocal counteroffensive. Fed funds futures reflected bets for a negative U.S. policy rate for a fifth day… While expectations for a shift moderated slightly after Powell’s speech, traders are still prepared for a move during the first half of next year. Global investors are factoring in a long, difficult road for policy makers trying to get their virus-damaged economies back on track. U.K. traders became the latest to price in sub-zero rates this week, in what would be the first move below zero in British history. Investors in New Zealand also see the benchmark falling through zero…”
