President Trump Walks to Marine One for Trip to Walter Reed

Photos posted by reporters on the South Lawn of the White House show President Trump walked unassisted to Marine One for the trip to Walter Reed National Military Medical Center for treatment for the COVID-19 China coronavirus. Trump wearing a suit and a mask, waved to reporters and flashed his trademark thumbs up as he left the White House.

President Trump announced early Friday morning that he and First Lady Melania tested positive for the virus. It was reported Friday afternoon that the President was experiencing fever, chills, congestion and a cough. The First Lady was reported by the White House physician to have a mild cough and headache.

Luongo: "What's Coming Next Will Not Be Pretty"

While we were all distracted by the Kabuki Theater of the first ‘debate’ between Donald Trump and Joe Biden on Tuesday the bigger event was simply the turning of the calendar from September to October.

What is painful about so much market commentary is that it is focused on price. The Dow went up, huzzah! The dollar fell, huzzah?!

But prices are nothing without time. And most prices are meaningless. The only ones that truly matter are the ones we know definitively for any given period of time — Open, High, Low, Close.

Everything else is noise and errata.

So, the calendar shifting from September to October creates another opportunity to aggregate all the noise of two different time periods, one month and one quarter-year, and assess what people actually thought of the Dow or the dollar or Tesla or a micro-cap furniture company in Saigon.

Given the extreme political landscape, central bankers who have no answers and the obvious push for a remaking of society through the fear-mongering over COVID-19 this quarterly close may be one of the most important in the history of financial markets.

And the fight over important closing prices didn’t disappoint.

Last week I talked about what happens if the dollar really starts to rise, citing a massively bearish monthly chart pattern in the euro. To pull off one of the most bearish signals possible all the euro had to do was close below $1.1696 on Wednesday.

It didn’t. $1.1718 was the close. Bearish engulfing one-bar reversal avoided. Whew!

But for how long?

Germany slipped into deflation last quarter. The ECB can’t allow the euro to fall lest it begin putting upward pressure on rates as carry trades unwind. Right now the only thing keeping any of the markets afloat is insane levels of sovereign debt buying by central banks.

They are going through the motions that there are actual markets for these bonds and we are going through the motions that we actually want to own them.

If not for trillions in liquidity sloshing around looking for a home this whole system would collapse overnight. And yet there is no escape from it collapsing at some point anyway.

This is why the WEF’s Great Reset is happening. Those in power want to stay in power and remake the world in a different image. It’s becoming increasingly clear that COVID-19 is an excuse to introduce draconian lock downs to minimize the public’s outrage when they pull the plug on the current system.

Dividing the population into those that submit to this state of affairs and those who don’t was useful data for them. They now know how much push back they will get from the people and how many newly-minted brown shirts and Karens they will have to help them remake the world for the ‘common good.’

And whether anyone is aware of what is going on always shows up in the capital markets. The strong close by U.S. equity markets on Wednesday in the wake of Trump’s debate performance was your first clue.

As I noted in Wednesday’s post, “Elephants vote.”

Crime Data for 2019 Released – Still Not the Gun’s Fault

As Election Day draws closer, Americans should be well aware of the differences between President Donald Trump and former Vice President Joe Biden when it comes to their Second Amendment rights.

One of the most dangerous pillars of Biden’s gun control platform is a proposed ban and “voluntary” buyback scheme for Modern Sporting Rifles (MSRs). Fresh data released by the FBI clearly demonstrates that there is no logic behind banning the most popular type of rifle in America today.

According to the FBI’s 2019 Uniform Crime Report, both the numbers of violent crime and the rate dropped in 2019 compared to 2018. The total number of violent crimes was 3.8 percent below the 2010 level and, the violent crime rate per 100,000 inhabitants fell 9.3 percent from the 2010 estimate.

At the same time, NSSF-adjusted data from the National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS) suggests that firearms transactions overall rose by nearly 40 percent in the last ten years.

This continued drop in violent crime, while the number of MSRs in the U.S. has soared to more than 18 million in circulation today, is a clear indication that Biden’s proposed ban has nothing to do with reducing crime. It is simply a way to ensure Americans are not allowed to choose whether and how to exercise their Constitutional right to bear arms.

The data shows that the number of homicides with any type of rifle was once again low, representing only three percent of homicides in 2019. This is the same proportion as was estimated in 2010 and is far below the 11 percent of homicides committed with knives or even the four percent committed with hands and feet.

With the high levels of civil unrest in 2020, there is a broad expectation that next year’s report will show higher crime data when it is released. However, it is crucial to note that the expected increase is not tied to the long-term trends of more gun owners and — less crime. It’s critical that those who value their gun rights take note now because if gun owners fail to get out and vote, and are faced with a President Biden, this fact will be distorted to suit his gun control goals.

Aspartame and Donald Rumsfeld Disease

What does aspartame, the sweetener used in diet sodas, chewing gum, kids’ vitamins, and hundreds of other products, have to do with Donald Rumsfeld, a chief architect of the Iraq invasion? If you don’t yet know, you’re in for a rude awakening. It’s not a pretty sight.

But let’s start with Aspartame. It was originally being produced by G.D. Searle & Company as a possible anti-ulcer drug. But when their chemist, James M. Schlatter, accidentally licked some on his finger, a new sweetener was born.

Now found under names such as NutraSweet, Equal, Spoonful, Canderel, Benevia, and E951, aspartame contains methyl ester. According to food science professor Woodrow Monte, methyl ester immediately converts to methyl (wood) alcohol, a deadly poison that can bioaccumulate in the body. A single ounce can be fatal.

Monte, whose article “Aspartame: Methanol and the Public Health” appeared in the Journal of Applied Nutrition,[1] says, “Methyl alcohol then converts to two other known toxins—formaldehyde and formic acid.” Do you still want to sweeten your coffee with this? Wait…there’s more.

The two other two sub-units in aspartame are the amino acids aspartic acid and phenylalanine. These both may be harmless when they are part of protein, but according to physician H. J. Roberts, author of the medical text, Aspartame Disease: An Ignored Epidemic, the amino acids in aspartame are isolated and in a dangerous configuration (L. stereoisomer). In addition, they interact with free methyl alcohol, which is available because of the methyl ester. All these factors make the amino acids particularly harmful.

­Roberts says the isolated phenylalanine lowers the seizure threshold and triggers psychiatric and behavioral problems, as well as other symptoms and diseases. Neuroscientist John Olney, who founded the field of neuroscience called excitotoxicity, says that aspartic acid is an excitotoxin that stimulates neurons into hyperactivity until they exhaust and die.

Test Subject Loses Sight In One Eye

Psychiatrist Ralph G. Walton, medical director of Safe Harbor Behavioral Health, had to abruptly stop his own human clinical trial on aspartame when some of the subjects had serious reactions. One participant, the hospital’s administrator, suffered a detached retina and went blind in one eye. Another had bleeding of the eye; others reported being poisoned.[2]

Walton says that “Aspartame is a multipotential toxin and carcinogen,” which also lowers seizure thresholds, produces “carbohydrate craving,” and in vulnerable individuals, can cause “panic, depressive and cognitive symptoms.”[3]
