Opinion: Trump wants to be the man on the moon

If you believed they put a man on the moon

Man on the moon” R.E.M. – ‘Man on the Moon’ 1992

We are in the middle of a Coronavirus / COVID-19 epidemic crisis in the Republic and Worldwide. What does the President Trump and his team do? They write up a Executive Order to Mine the Moon. This is not a skit from Saturday Night Live. The Trump Administration is clearly showing their mismanaged ways with this.

This EO was written and published on the 6th April 2020. At a time the death numbers are rising, the amount of cases of COVID-19 is spiralling out. The United States of America is in the midst of crisis the Trump administration cannot handle. That is why the President is holding erratic press conferences. Instead of governing, because that takes work, listening to advice of experts and actually using the institutions that is there too.

Trump could have used the Defence Act to get the US companies to produce the needed ventilators, PPE equipment and everything else needed for the crisis. However, Trump only did that once to one Company and did it super late. Also, he never listened to warnings for months. Neither, did he use the Pandemic Team, which he dismantled and also cut the funds to the CDC. Therefore, it was a perfect storm.

That is why now has made a random Task Force, but its more a display team of loyal cronies and family members, than experts doing their duties. Because, if they try to, they will be stopped by infighting and lack of coordination. There is no coordination between FEMA, CDC and the White House. It is a patchwork attempt to beat an enemy. Which Trump neither understands or grasps.

He even cannot show real emotions, as he wants people to forget the ones that dies. He writes this as he written an Executive Order to Mine on the Moon. Stop International Treaties in Space. Because, the possible prospects of Fortunes on a far away Moon is better than nothing. Even if the ability or industrial efforts is at bare minimum. Unless, he has some alien forefathers that got the Tesseract to amplify the production of NASA.

Trump is misguided and lacks skills of governing, that he does this in the midst of a pandemic. That the President issues this and priorities this as citizens dies. As hospitals are struggling and the pandemic creates lockdowns all across the Republic. That a President wants to play George Lucas and Han Solo.

Instead here we are, we’re seeing this nonsense. Seeing the acts of mischief and distaste. A man who rather golf and score babes, than actually govern. A man who cares more about ratings on TV, than on saving lives. More about quick profits for his companies, than delivering life-saving policies. That is the President of the USA.

Why care for people, when you can eat cheese on the moon with Wallace and Gromit. Peace.

Opinion: Biden is lukewarm coffee

There are some things in life, which isn’t fair neither as we suspect it be. Someone who was associated with the good times of President Barrack Obama. Being his Vice-President, Senator and everything else. There should be ways to see him finesse his ways to become Head of State and President. However, this man doesn’t cut it. Not at this junction.

Joe Biden the Presidential Candidate and front-runner in the Democratic Party has the enthusiasm as lukewarm coffee. It is nether steaming hot-coffee straight from the tap or the coffee-maker. It isn’t either ice-coffee with sweet sugar and milky flavour. It is a coffee that has been forgotten, put on a table or the counter. Therefore, the coffee isn’t as warm it should be. You put it there and didn’t care about it.

Just like that is Biden. No matter that he has a long track-record working for the corporate establishment, that his been a main-stay and been a safe-bet for them. So, its not like his been working directly for Joe-Blow. No, Joe has been a safe one for the needs of Corporate America. That is why his pushed by the Mainstream Media, who earns capital from the same Corporate America. They are working in tandem to get him in, because that is a safer bet than having Bernie Sanders.

However, by doing so, they are pushing a weaker, lukewarm coffee against Donald Trump. A Donald who has a party behind him and a cult-following within his ranks. People can die, people can suffer, but they will still follow him. The Scientology of Politics is what Trump is.

When your supposed to go against that type of grain, you need strength, a motive and message. You need a to be vibrant and able to beat the hypocrisy of Trump. Also able to undress him and show how his not doing everything his promising. That is that is what is needed to do.

Biden cannot reach new voters, neither spark a change to gather new following. Unless, you a K-Mart CEO or Wall-Mart Corporate Associate, than you have a deal, but that is a small margin. The public, the activists are not running around and considering Biden. Biden has only people around him, because he can pay them. He can fake following, but that will not be a natural surge.

Biden cannot manage nor sound like a profound human being. His like a Democratic Mike Pence. We don’t need another Mike Pence. Mike Pence is the ass-kisser and the jester of the White House. Biden should want to be more, except his not. Joe can say “Malarkey” and try to act to the people now. His team and himself isn’t able to fit the narrative of the time. That is why New York Governor Andrew Cuomo get more a natural flair because of the address to the public.

Cuomo has taken the national stage and eaten it. He has shown capacity and ability to stay strong in the midst of struggle. In this current time and pandemic. His voice of reason and reality check has been sincere. The acts of Biden seems more like cheap-shots and political game-planning as he hasn’t stopped elections nor tried to avoid primaries. Instead let it go ahead, as the social distancing is destroyed by it. The DNC and the Biden camp has accepted this. While Bernie has spoken out that he would have postponed it. That is why Biden cannot even do that right, because he rather have the votes, than make sure the DNC supporters are safe.

That plus his whole persona is uninteresting. Neither is his policies or changes. His a moderate, old-school politician, whose for the corporate America, but not for the public. Unless, you want the Ghost-Persons voting for you. Than, the DNC should consider someone else. Biden doesn’t cut it.

How can this man, with the lukewarm enthusiasm be able to beat a cult? That’s not happening. Everyone can see that, but maybe the reality has to hit them again … because the Democratic Party should know better. However, I don’t expect it. They gave way for Hillary, they could do the same for Joe. Even if that is losing before you even start playing. Peace.

USA: 4 Senators letter to the Cheif Executive Officer Christian Swing of Deutsche Bank on the Trump Organization (07.04.2020)

Opinion: Kushner and Trump proving the US is a GIANT Banana Republic!

Jared Kushner, the Son-in-Law and White House Advisor and President Donald J. Trump is proving again that the United States of America is run like a hack-job or a Banana Republic. The US Federal Government isn’t supplying the Health Care Units in the States, they are letting the States outbid itself for scraping the needed equipment and ventilators. As the National Stockpile isn’t at capacity nor cared for over the years in the Trump Administration. Just like the revelation of the dismantling the Pandemic Team within the White House. They have made a Task-Force for it, but that was a month ago. Just like the order of General Motors was barely two weeks ago. There is no real action made by the Federal Government to help the States and Local Government.

Kushner and Trump is now throwing shade at the local government. They are complaining and saying the states didn’t do enough. While he didn’t follow international intelligence in January nor February. He even tried early in March to downplay the crisis. Therefore, for him to blame others is very rich from the impoverished mind of Trump.

That Kushner now tells Governors and Mayors, that they don’t know what happens in their states and towns. Kushner claims that he has oversight of the National Stockpile and the data. But seemingly he seems like the merchant of death. That the man whose there to defend the father-in-law.

The White House, Trump Administration and the whole regime has failed the public. As they want it to be Hunger Games for the equipment. Not taking responsibility and really shifting blame to the local governments. Instead of seeing what it knew and what was at stake. The White House and President wanted to save Wall Street, but not act upon the coming needs. Like the Governors or Mayors would get intelligence briefings. No, they don’t and the Federal Government isn’t fixing the fixed prices and schemes to secure needed equipment. That is what its doing.

Kushner and Trump has not done their job. They are not taking responsibility nor acting as leaders. More as reactionary scarecrows. The Task-Force and Vice-President is all acting as puppets. They are not acting like they are governing, but as leaders who deserves credit, but hasn’t done anything fruitful.

This is happening while people is dying. As the people are getting sick and the COVID-19 crisis is hitting the United States even more. The Trump Administration hasn’t acted, they haven’t ordered. It been so easy in the past to order Executive Orders for White Supremacist legislation, but now to save lives. It cannot even touch the print or paperwork. They only used the law once to stop it and order one Company very late to the game. When the Federal Government could have ensured the companies was directly ordered to procure and produce needed equipment. Alas, that has not been done and not properly. Neither has there been sufficient control of “stay at home orders” in the various of states. White House and the President should have acted, but he doesn’t have the character to do so. Only get self-praise and shift blame.

Kushner can act like a king-pin over the Stockpile. The President can call himself a Back-Up. However, then he shouldn’t be the Executive, be the man whose head-of-state and Commander-in-Chief. Because, that isn’t the act of a President in crisis. That is the act of self-centred and lack of authority in the dire need. The man who had no trouble getting more people out of health-insurance and dismantling the Obamacare. The man who will not secure the people who now cannot enter hospitals, because they don’t have insurance. Since hospitals doesn’t take free-loaders who cannot pay for the services, as they are out-of-job.

That is why the US is a Banana Republic. Run by incompetent, nepotism and cronyism. Wall Street bulls who bull-market the Health Care Industry and the Pharmaceuticals. That is what they are doing and done. The cost now is lives of the citizens, who are pawns by the so-called Kings of the Washington DC.

These people doesn’t act for the citizens, but only for their self interest. The ones paying for that is the ordinary tax-payer. They are the ones living in a state of taxation without proper representation. The President and Son-in-Law, the Vice-President are all acting ill, while the state is getting sick. They have not acted and still doesn’t, only sending blame further down the food-chain. There will be no resolve, no resolution of this, only more pain. More suffering and more lack of leadership from the top.

Who needs leadership and clear mandates? When you can have a PR front-man and snake-oil salesman who sounds like a prosperity gospel preacher. Instead of giving the people the orders they need so they can survive. They are a buncu of useless men with titles, who cannot lead or delegate, but only operate as figment of imagination in-front of the TV. Peace.

Opinion: All hail the King or let your constituents die

President Donald J. Trump got a nerve, well, to be honest. I don’t think he got any. His not a governor nor any ordinary representative of the public. His the President and has Executive Power with Executive Privileges, which can through Federal Programs help the Hospitals or support the Health Care system as a whole.

The same man who dismantled the National Security Council directorate for Pandemics. While also sacking the pandemics expert stationed in China. Clearly, this President haven’t listened nor acted righteous.

He played down the COVID-19 or Coronavirus all through January and February. Even as he got the Intelligence warnings in December 2019. Not like the President couldn’t get the wire or the information from China. He would get it, but he didn’t listen, because it didn’t matter to him and his busy golfing scheduled at Mar-A-Lago in Miami.

President Trump has misused his time. The Timeline he cannot run away, which is exposed in the recent ad too. Where his words are used against him. As the numbers are skyrocketing and hospitals cannot manage to follow suit. Neither is the states able to get needed equipment or manpower to shield the apex of the pandemics in their areas. There is no central coordination, if it is. Its AD-HOC and reactionary, later after the fact.

The United States is fucked, because of their central leadership. The Governors and States can salvage the hurt. However, they are not getting the help they need from the President. Unless, they write love-letters or praise their King. The Jester at the White House. The Big-Man, the Don and the Snake-Oil Salesman. The Bankrupter of Casinos, he lost money even in a an industry: “where the house always wins”. That’s the sort of character he is.

This President is running FEMA. A cabinet filled of temporary people. His filled cronies and loyal yes men in his party. They are all evolved around him and his whims. His nepotism and his actions are clear, the bail-out will most likely be overturned and not give the needed surplus the people needs. Instead, its a cash-cow for the corporations. That is the sort of man, another trick and another act of deviousness.

Now, in the midst of the skyrocketing numbers of people catching the spread. The hospitals in Bronx, state of Georgia and everywhere else is crying out of needs. When the Department of State suddenly asks for a international brain-drain of educated health care workers from abroad. From the most devious of governments in recent history. Child-separating, closing of borders, Muslim-Ban and so fourth. Now, they need the migrants? Your insincerity and your lack of tolerance in the sunny days. Why should people come now to your need in the rain? Seriously?

The United States is so rich, but morally POOR. The poverty is their acts against minorities, the poor and the migrants itself. That is why they suddenly turn to them in the hour of need. The rest of the term they have been associated with dismantling opportunities to enter the Republic. So, in crisis and havoc, your needed, but rest of the time your a filthy person. Just think about that for a moment.

Still, the President wants to salvage the economy. He wants to save Wall-Street and the economy. Even if his printing money like a drunk sailor. However, the President needs the praise, they need to say his hair looks nice, his breath is fresh and give him two scoops of ice-cream beside his slice of cake. Also, not forget to give him his doze of cokes.

This President forgets his role, think this is a hunger game. Think this is play for who deserves the most and who begs the best gets equipment and funds. The citizens of United States deserves better. Now they are seeing what a narcissist and a self-centred individual will do in crisis. Instead of serving, his only want to be King. The Grand Monarch from Jamaica Queens to the White House. That is the man, apparently.

I’m grateful I’m European and seeing this from across the pond. However, don’t wish anyone to go through what the US Citizens are going through now. But, when you elect a man like this and when you support his actions. That will cost. The cost is showing now. The price of his leadership and reactionary ways comes. The US are losers, because the biggest contender for useless President in the World is on the throne there.

Still, remember praise the ass-hole, remember to give him the honour and kiss the ring. If you do, your constituents might get some relief. Peace.

Opinion: The Trump administration wants another Bolivia in Venezuela…

The actions made today by the United States Department of Justice to indict President Nicolás Maduro Moro of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela is a clear sign to the world. Also, that the US DOJ also issued the same sort of cases against 14 more high ranking officials of the Republic.

It is not so many months ago since the coup d’etat against the Bolivian President Evo Morales and his socialist government. This is again an assault on an independent republic in Latin America by the US government. They are really aiming harder. There is also not many months since the opposition leader and far-right Washington crony Juan Guaido participated and was a visitor at the State of the Nation in January 2020. Therefore, the actions now is showing flex towards the regime in Caracas.

Surely, the US government thinks they can get away with this and criminalizing the central government of Venezuela. They are putting big claims of drug-trafficking and other claims of illegal activity. However, the same US government propped up Guaido and has paid several of mercenaries to deal with things in the past too. Not like the US government is independent and a partial partner in the affairs here.

They want to have another far-right puppet in Latin America. Just like the enriching looting government in Bolivia now. Whose now opening up for US based companies to extract and get passes to export resources cheaply to the United States. Surely, they want the same thing done in Venezuela. Where they can get the oil reserves instead of seeing it sold to China or Russia like today. It is easy to see the game they play, because the cards are all on the table.

The Manduro isn’t saints, but the direct interference is directly disrespectful and trying to force another coup d’etat. I wonder how the United States citizens would enjoy if there was foreign forces choosing their leaders and making their representatives to puppet of Kremlin or elsewhere.

The US government wants to make Maduro into a new Morales. Put him into exile and so fourth. In our days and times. The US government isn’t even concealing their efforts, it is an open-air bazaar of actions and they using all means now.

It is not like the US has jurisdiction or can prove their allegations. This comes out of nowhere and seems like a plot from the Trump Presidency. That is why they have made love stories sweeter than the songs of Ariana Grande and Selena Gomez. This is why they target Maduro and his associates. This is how it seems.

I’m not buying the stories nor the sudden indictment from a corrupt and impartial government like the US government. They are not believable. This is done as ploy for Guaido. They want another Morales served and sentenced. That is the message.

This is the “Washington Consensus” at the moment. So, I’m not buying tickets to their shows. Peace.

The United Nations Secretary-General: Appeal for global cease-fire (23.03.2020)

Opinion: Big-Men’s Medical Tourism is temporary suspended [and their neglect will be obvious]

We have seen over the years, that big-men from developing countries instead of fixing their own health-care system or even supporting the needs of the Ministry of Health. They have at every junction instead used foreign health care and hospitals to salvage the hurt and heal.

Now in this COVID-19 or Coronavirus times, the borders are closed, ending flights between the nations and the quarantine of people crossing borders. The big-men cannot flea their own health care facilities, but instead has to trust them like everyone else. The neglect, the lack of investment and the years of brain-drain has hurt these hospitals and health care facilities.

They have gotten aid, gotten grants and promised to build sustainable health care facilities. However, the big-men have never trusted these ones. Only the ones whose retired and the ones who hasn’t saved up in office. Has in the end of their days and because of lack funds. They have used them and seen the grim state.

Like there been high ranking officials, who suddenly needs care and been brought to the closest hospital after a public function. Usually picked up by a army chopper and flown to the best nearby facility. However, than they have lacked electricity, enough beds, medicines or needed technical apparatus to function. That was okay, when the locals needed it, but when they pop-by than its an outcry. The state cannot even procure enough ambulances and have proper levels of in-need educated professionals in the field.

That is why, this sort of crisis undress the years of neglect, the years of corruption and lack of investment in the field. If they will lack blood, air and other needed things. It will be, because they didn’t care in days of sunshine. Now, that its raining and the roads are getting muddy. Than, the big-men will suffer with the general public.

They are maybe VIPs and have giant convoys. They are maybe paid a fortune for their high office and high ranking in society. However, they have to enter the same facilities, which they didn’t think of or consider. Because, there was always, China, Singapore, France or United States. Where they could go for check-ups and healing. Where they got better treatment and with modern facilities made for patching the hurt.

Now, they cannot go there. They are blocked. They cannot risk to enter there and the borders are closing in. The Big-men doesn’t have the meal-ticket or ability pay an easy way out. Instead, they have to suffer with public.

There is no way out. Just continue, but maybe their eyes will be opened when they will be questioned why they didn’t spend the needed funds in sunshine, but cries out during the rain. They spent on the army, ghosts and side-dishes. Nevertheless, they didn’t care for the health care, for the structures of healing and proper treatment.

Now, they will hold prayer sessions and ask for the Gods to intervene. Instead of using their minds and used their time to invest. They could have invested and could have made a difference. Instead, they got warplanes, got ammunition to start wWrld War III, but cannot have enough beds for a pandemic. Peace.

China-US Standoff: The “Tit-for-Tat” enterprise continues

The US President calls the Corona Virus or COVID19, the “Chinese Virus”. While the Chinese comes with an conspiracy of US intervention and making up the virus itself. This is a common practice of deflections and also disinformation practices of parties that doesn’t want to take responsibility and also deflect their own inability to cape with the new problems at hand. Than, its easier to blame another party or make a make-belief story.

However, Trump dumb arrogance and ignorant attitude shouldn’t shape the world. Neither should the Communist party and their propaganda shape the world either. Nevertheless, we got to listen to them both and glean through it all, as we are all settled on this earth and got to live together on this planet.

Last month, the White House and Trump administrations put some new limits on the Chinese media houses in the United States. The 5 Chinese Media had to register itself and its employees. The Trump Administration also planned to limit the visas to the Chinese journalists in the US. These were targeting the Chinese media like Xinhua News Agency and China Global Television Network (CGTN).

This month and today, Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the People’s Republic of China wrote this: “First, in response to the US designation of five Chinese media agencies as “foreign missions”, China demands, in the spirit of reciprocity, that the China-based branches of Voice of America, the New York Times, the Wall Street Journal, the Washington Post and Time declare in written form information about their staff, finance, operation and real estate in China. Second, in response to the US slashing the staff size of Chinese media outlets in the US, which is expulsion in all but name, China demands that journalists of US citizenship working with the New York Times, the Wall Street Journal and the Washington Post whose press credentials are due to expire before the end of 2020 notify the Department of Information of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs within four calendar days starting from today and hand back their press cards within ten calendar days. They will not be allowed to continue working as journalists in the People’s Republic of China, including its Hong Kong and Macao Special Administrative Regions. Third, in response to the discriminatory restrictions the US has imposed on Chinese journalists with regard to visa, administrative review and reporting, China will take reciprocal measures against American journalists” (China, 17.03.2020).

We are now seeing a return of the favour, which is a way of using the same means of retribution. When one does this, I do that. When my brother steal my coke, I take his Pepsi and so-on. This is what is happening, the Chinese targets US media houses and the US targets Chinese media houses. In this regard none of them wins.

They are both stopping transparent reporting and also outsider looking in. No matter what sort of ideals you got. This is a diplomatic dispute between two parties. Who both seek to revenge. Who both uses this means on journalists and the media houses. While there are some underlying conflict between them. Stemming from the trade-war or the tariffs, maybe even the rhetoric of the Trump Presidency or the CCP Party officials. Because none of them are winning at this, only loosing.

This is just political mind-games with the usage of the media as the pawns. It is right to question the Chinese media houses and their affiliation with the ruling party. However, the US media houses have often played the tunes of the ruling regime and been the voice of whoever in-charge there too. Not so all to critical or questioning the status quo. That is why, this is more a question of imperialism and whose on first. Than whose the big bad wolf.

Yes, this here isn’t the whole story, there are more to glean into it. However, the stories shared from China wouldn’t have been uncovered by their own. Unless, they had more brave whistleblowers and such. Who dares to speak out, but not like there are so many big voices who doesn’t follow the corporate government agenda of Washington either? Who is in the mainstream media there and whose critical abroad, but a nice acting puppy at home.

Well, that is my take on it. You might not like it, but this is view of an outsider looking in. They are both playing each other. There are no innocent here. Both have their own agenda, not just trying to cover one side or another. They want to undress each other and uses all means.

This was a “tit-for-tat”. Let’s see where this one goes, but this is not last card in the deck. There comes more. Peace.

Opinion: Michael Bloomberg is our times ‘Citizen Kane’

I never thought that knowing Orson Wells movie ‘Citizen Kane’ would be this relevant for our times, but it apparently is. In that movie, the main character Charles Foster Kane is a rich New Yorker willingly going into a political campaign, owning newspapers and a vast empire. Having an ego and narcissistic view of himself, as the grand man and a man for the people. Even when he was richer than God and had Xanadu as his playground with all the wonders of the world.  Still, he was never satisfied and felt betrayed that he didn’t get elected and lost because of a shady love-affair with a singer that would spoil his reputation.

In this manner, Michael Bloomberg fit perfectly well. He has the campaign behind, he has all the money the world can offer. He owns a media empire, his even a former Mayor of New York. Surely, he has his copy of Xanadu somewhere. Bloomberg is a man who creates scandals, all by himself and his own history. He has used power and words before to address the ills of society, but not for betterment. Instead to amplify the problems and racial abuse people. Therefore, wealth isn’t a sign of moral judgement.

Bloomberg is an “oligarch”, a Richie rich rich soft of fella. He has had the ability to be relevant because of his wealth. Be a part of any conversation because of his stature. Not because of his vitality or his policies. No, his just another New York Mayor bashing in wealth, who succeeded by another one of those.

Mikey Mike think he deserves it. Nevertheless, he don’t just because he got money. Doesn’t mean he will get the love. He can campaign like Citizen Kane, use all the tools of disposal, buy allegiance and a fancy media rollout, but that doesn’t shade away the grim facts about this man. That his used to get away with everything and gotten into every room because of his money. Not because of his skills, charisma nor his message. No, because Bloomy is Bloomberg. That’s why his been there.

He can run a TV Network, own newspapers and do what it do. However, that doesn’t mean his fit for office. That he owns conglomerates doesn’t mean his the leader of men. Only, that he knows how to grow money and get people on the money train. That his a racists and misogynist should be a warning sign in itself. However, he thinks he can away with it and it doesn’t matter, because a media can overshadow those things.

Bloomberg want to be loved by the people like Kane, but he will not be. Because, his words hurt, the words uttered against woman and African-Americans are just disgraceful. That he been open for “stop and frisk” someone because of their identity, not because of their record or what they possess. Show his true self.

That the Democratic Party wants a Trump 2.0 running their primaries is also astonishing, considering they are supposed to want to defeat him with a significant difference and not with his evil twin. Because, there is little difference in the clientele and the acts of Bloomberg. Only that he has a Democratic ticket and such. His actions and words of the past would easily fit the bar of the Republicans today.

Therefore, our Charles Forster Kane of 2020 might continue to linger, might try to force his stay. But will he welcomed, will he gain real standing and support? Is it all monetary based on the belief that another billionaire got the capacity to run the Republic? Is that it? If so, what a sad state of affairs for the United States. That it sinks so low and has so little faith in their own.

Bloomberg should back out, take the route of being a donor or whatever they call it. However, not run for office. His not fitting. Boss Getty’s got the US covered and others like him. Mike doesn’t do it. He should leave the race and relax at Xanadu. Look over his artefacts and statutes. Look over his empire and smell the coffee. Not think that people will love him because his rich. They wouldn’t love him, they just want a part of his cake. Peace.
