SBA Hid Comms With Planned Parenthood Amid GOP Criticism Over PPP Loans

 

The Small Business Administration hid communications with Planned Parenthood regarding allegedly illegal COVID-19 loans, emails obtained by the Daily Caller News Foundation show.

The DCNF filed a Freedom of Information Act request in May 2020 for communications regarding Planned Parenthood’s Paycheck Protection Program loans after GOP lawmakers called for an investigation into the $80 million in loans given to Planned Parenthood affiliates.

Lawmakers have argued that these affiliates obtained the loans illegally.

 

The Small Business Administration hid communications with Planned Parenthood regarding COVID-19 loans that Republicans say were illegal, emails obtained by the Daily Caller News Foundation show.

 

The SBA released heavily redacted emails between the agency, lenders and Planned Parenthood affiliates in response to a Freedom of Information Act request the DCNF filed in May 2020. GOP lawmakers had previously demanded an investigation into $80 million in Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) loans, saying they were obtained illegally.

 

The SBA has repeatedly declined to comment on the Republicans’ claims.

 

“Americans have a right to know why their tax dollars went to Planned Parenthood’s abortion clinics instead of struggling small businesses, non-profits, and churches,” Sen. Tom Cotton told the DCNF.

 

“The Small Business Administration ought to disclose how Planned Parenthood affiliates gamed the system to illegally receive PPP loans—and then refer those affiliates to the Department of Justice for prosecution,” the Arkansas Republican continued.

SBA Dodges Addressing Redactions

 

The redacted communications appear to discuss Republican concerns over the PPP loans as well as a letter from GOP lawmakers demanding investigations into whether the loans were illegally distributed.

 

Due to the redactions, it is not clear what the SBA decided or how the SBA rationalized its decision. However, one May 18, 2020 email from an SBA employee to a Sun Trust email address said that the SBA did not have the ability to make a final determination on eligibility as “these decisions are the responsibility of the applicant and the lender.”

 

The email noted that an unnamed applicant met the needed 501(c)(3) criteria.

 

“If other eligibility criteria is met then the submission may be eligible,” the email said.

Rigging the Election for China and Profit

 

Emerald Robinson tweets:

 

@EmeraldRobinson

 

The corporate media: "People who say there was a shadow campaign to rig the 2020 election are conspiracy theorists!"

 

Time Magazine: "Read our story on the shadow campaign to rig the 2020 election!"

 

She’s referring to the most astonishing story of the week, Molly Ball’s article in Time: ”The Secret History of the Shadow Campaign that saved the 2020 election,” a sordid tale of how Big Tech, BLM, organized labor and big business, particularly the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, colluded to defeat Donald J. Trump’s reelection.

 

The participants justified their behavior as “saving democracy.” Was this a “modified limited hangout” in the old Watergate sense? An effort to undo the public perception that the election was illegally stolen with an alternative that there was an unsavory but legitimate perception management by powerful people and institutions to defeat the man who had captured the angst of the middle class and worked to improve their lives? Or were members of the cabal playing neener neener on the voters they bested to further dispirit them and keep them from tipping over the chessboard they set up to wipe out the pawns? All these theories have merit, but I think these powerful people or most of them have been coopted by China and Biden is the perfect puppet to carry the sellout to China and to defeat Trump’s moves to strengthen America and improve the lot of working Americans and their communities.

 

The Cabal

 

You must read the Time article to get the full flavor of the brazen admissions of what was done. Here’s a brief summary of the most significant of them, devoid of the leftist spackle of the author. Business, the AFL-CIO, and Black Lives Matter worked together to change voting systems and laws, to get hundreds of millions of dollars to make voting less secure and worked with social media to keep the Biden message upfront, the Trump message buried and the country terrified of widespread violence if the president won re-election. (4.6 percent of people who voted for Biden said in a poll that they would not have done so, had the information about Hunter Biden’s corruption not been scotched by the media.)

The GameStop Saga Unravels Stakeholder Theory

 

The GameStop saga shows some "equity" movements are more equal than others.

 

Stakeholder theory, the corporate version of social justice, attempts to install this hopelessly amorphous concept of "equity" in the business world. Equity, unlike equality, demands different treatment of individuals and different distribution of resources based on need, identity, and historical injustices. But now equity has evolved beyond a political buzzword, and finds growing support in calls for stakeholder capitalism. The animating impulse in big corporate boardrooms today requires cultivating an image of social responsibility. Under this theory business firms should entertain all kinds of noneconomic goals and outcomes. No longer may owners simply concern themselves with profit or loss, but instead must consider the broader societal implications of everything their business does. Whether corporate leaders concern themselves with social justice out of genuine desire or merely to avoid backlash is an open question, but the events of 2020 clearly changed the conversations in boardrooms.

 

Under the old conception, businesses have four primary elements, namely owners, managers, employees (or vendors), and customers. All four have skin in the game, which is to say their own money or income is involved. The notion of stakeholders inverts this paradigm and grants a degree of power over ostensibly private businesses to those who take no risks and provide no benefit. By undermining the suddenly old-fashioned idea of profit and loss as the guiding principle for business, stakeholder theory calls into question the very existence of millions of businesses big and small—in fact their grubby and narrow focus is simply to make money.

 

To suggest that the general public or society at large ought to be a de facto partner in any business, based on the interconnected nature of any economy, is to suggest an unlimited and wholesale attack on the concept of private ownership. It is patently antiproperty and implies collectivism by its very conceptual foundation. It insists everyone in society ought to have an interest in and some say over what ostensibly private firms do—and not only with respect to their profits, but even their business practices and mission. Stakeholder theory even creates a starring role for the earth itself, as the ultimate nonrenewable resource which is dubiously always in peril from business.

 

Societal ownership of business firms traditionally takes three prominent forms, specifically socialism, communism, and fascism. But in 2021 these terms fail to shock or alarm us as they once did. The constant use of attenuated language makes us almost immune to powerful words that ought to be used judiciously. Socialism is increasingly popular, while fascism is the pejorative increasingly aimed at market capitalism. The newspeak of equity and stakeholders is yet another "third way" bridge blurring the distinction between private and state, between the economic means and the political means. And to be fair, equity and stakeholder movements per se do not represent outright socialism (or fascism) in either the Misesian or Rothbardian sense. We still have stock markets, we still have private owners, and we still have profits and losses. The equity revolution takes place within the form, as an evolution rather than a deviation.

 

Enter GameStop and its Reddit WallStreetBets bros, determined to prop up the fading retailer's stock price in the face of intense short-selling pressure by powerful and rich hedge funds. This uprising, whether motivated by greed, gamer culture, or sheer spite against perceived Wall Street fat cats, is as much imbued with notions of fairness and societal benefit as any protest movement. Yet suddenly the champions of stakeholder theory, like the predictably despicable Washington Post, find themselves singing a new tune about vulture capitalists, deciding that hedge fund short sellers are the good guys in the story.

Prophecy by Kim Clement, April 4th, 2008, Seattle, WA:

 

And they shall say, “but now there is a second President, how can we have two presidents?” An unusual thing, isn’t it, says the Spirit of the Lord? Why would it be that one with a double mind would stand up and face the people? No, they shall say “we have two presidents, what do we do now?” Fear not, for God said, as I promised before this is My Nation and I will change things according to the time and season and I told you now I will expose and reveal things that have been hidden so that My Nation can move into this next election and to the next phase with victory and honor and glory, says the Lord of Hosts!

Who Will Dare Eat From The Tree of For-Biden Fruit?

 

Four years ago the world was introduced to the concept of “fake news”. Many people may have suspected that the consensus reality of corporate news was a fantasy designed to stupefy and confuse the populace, but the validation from the incoming President Trump solidified the distrust. This was met by a self-defensive frenzy from that same media edifice that bordered on the homicidal at times. This wounded animal — suffering a collapse in audiences across the board — championed an alternative to the sitting president, who now sits behind the big brown desk in the Oval Office.

 

The benchmark of what constitutes a “conspiracy theory” has moved so dramatically over the past four years that claims that Joe Biden’s inauguration was pre-recorded and that he occupies a film studio rather than the real White House don’t grate the way perhaps they would have even a year ago. The mind boggles — but afterall, this is the age of the scamdemic, where large swathes of the western world have been shut down because of a virus with the severity of a common cold that has yet to be isolated (and therefore proven to exist), and which in any case can be effectively targeted by a simple and safe prophylactic such as hydroxychloroquine, which has been maligned in favor of a mass vaccination program with an experimental gene-altering compound that is not technically a vaccine. But let us not argue over semantics in times like these.

 

A comprehensive overview of data and factual analysis has been provided on this website, but for an overview of global Covid death rates, we must turn to a Russian source, as algorithmic censorship has meant that conglomerated mortalities have been removed from search engines in the west. The global death rates — essentially unchanged over the past several years — demonstrate that the covid scheme is both a casedemic and scamdemic, without substance or utility. Nonetheless, the Biden administration has committed to 600m doses of the mRNA “vaccine” and introduced tougher mandates on mask wearing. The scientific basis of both variables is being increasingly challenged by doctors and advisory bodies from a myriad of countries.

 

Since Trump was “ousted”, the stringency of the PCR testing regime has been loosened to allow for lower positive results and Democrat governors such as New York’s Andrew Cuomo have called for restaurants to be re-opened. Immediately following Biden’s inauguration, the World Health Organization admitted that PCR tests give false positives, and have changed the guidelines, which will obviously decrease case numbers.

 

Meanwhile, Biden appears before cameras for about 20 minutes a day and reads from card prompts, even when answering scripted questions from the swooning press pool.

 

Of the over two-dozen executive orders signed so far by Biden — those listed on the Federal Register, with more on the way — he has reversed the policy to help fight opioid addiction and halted Trump’s executive order to slash the price of insulin and EpiPen. Many immigration safeguards will be cancelled and the climate change carbon control dynamic has been revived, where once again dogma is supported by convenient and selective “science”. EO 13988 will ensure that female athletes can now be trounced on the sports field by 400lb male gorillas in the name of gender identity equality.

 

Even Democrat voters are rushing to social media to vent their anger at Biden’s initial actions, after he eliminated thousands of American jobs at the Keystone Pipeline and elsewhere, allowed taxpayer dollars to fund abortions abroad, and made the country more reliant on foreign energy.

 

The Washington Times last week reported that House Speaker Nancy Pelosi had cancelled business in the Chamber in Biden’s first week on the job — until February. The Democrats may of course need the time to settle in, or they may be wary of being in Capitol Hill while thousands of soldiers are posted around the perimeter.

 

There have been sketchy reports that the White House has been in darkness for several days, but this may as yet be a conspiracy theory too far — suggesting that a round-up of arrests has been taking place inside.

 

The initial footage of Biden signing EOs appeared to show blank pages but that was proven to be due to camera angles and lighting which similarly happened with some of Trump’s signings, but when social media pundits began comparing his signatures they were shown to be unalike, as if authored by someone else. If rumors are true that the corporation of America is bankrupt, then he is President, or more like CEO, of a defunct entity. Under those conditions, the signing of Executive Orders would be tantamount to committing fraud and possibly treason.
