Pakistan Suspends Six Government Officials Who Took Selfie With COVID-19 Infected Colleague

The infectious coronavirus disease, COVID-19, which is suspected to have originated in China’s Wuhan city, has forced many governments to take all possible measures to contain it. According to the World Health Organisation (WHO), the virus has already claimed around 13,000 lives so far.

Pakistan's Deputy Commissioner of Police in Khairpur district stated that the suspended six revenue officials unknowingly met with one of their colleagues who had returned from Iran and was later tested positive with the infectious coronavirus.

"Due to the information received through social media regarding getting selfie by the revenue staff with Mr Irshad Ali, recently return from Iran reported as positive case of coronavirus, the following staff as identified in selfie are hereby placed under suspension with immediate effect", the order read.

With the alarming rise in the number of cases related to coronavirus, Pakistan government is also taking preventive measures in order to contain the spread of the virus.

According to the official data, Pakistan has reported over 800 positive cases along with six deaths across the nation so far.

US Secretary of State Pompeo Reportedly Plans Meeting With Taliban Officials in Doha

US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo is in Doha, Qatar, where he will meet with top Taliban negotiators to discuss the next phase of the peace agreement signed last month between Washington and the Afghan militant group.

Pompeo's visit to Doha comes immediately after a trip to the Afghan capital of Kabul, where he met with Afghan President Ashraf Ghani and his political rival, Abdullah Abdullah, who has also claimed to have won the September 2019 presidental election.

"Secretary Pompeo is going to meet with Taliban officials in Doha including Mullah Baradar, Taliban’s chief negotiator, to press the Taliban to continue to comply with the agreement signed last month," State Department spokesperson Morgan Ortagus told reporters at Qatar's El Udeid Air Force Base on Monday.

The February peace deal, which saw the Taliban agree to reduce violence and begin talks with the Kabul government as the US withdraws several thousand troops from Afghanistan, hit several snags very quickly, including Kabul's unwillingness to abide by a US-promised mass amnesty of Taliban prisoners, as well as the lack of a comparable ceasefire between the Taliban and the Kabul government, which the Taliban doesn't recognize as legitimate.

Pompeo's trip comes amid a travel ban by the State Department on Americans going abroad in a bid to quell the spread of the COVID-19 virus, which has infected more than 350,000 people worldwide, including nearly 40,000 Americans.

‘Helicopter Money’: This Is the Game-Changer Geo-Politically

As the US and the UK, to stem Covid-19 infections, adopt a close-to-wartime approach, with intrusive levels of intervention into social life, these governments – as the corollary to lockdown – are proposing massive bail-outs. At first brush, this may seem both sensible and appropriate. But wait. Bailing out what? Well, financial markets of course, but then … just about everything: Boeing, the US Shale-oil industry, airlines, the tourist industry, and (in the US) every citizen – through posting them a $1,000, or a $2,000 cheque, this week – or, as is mooted in DC – perhaps one every month. Great! Just like Christmas.

The markets crashed: $½ Trillion in ‘liquidity’ here; $1.5 Tn there – and there – and there. An alphabet soup of lending facilities — pretty soon you are talking ‘real money’. The alphabet soup cloaks the collective size of liquidity available to banks. And likewise for individuals? 210 million US adults X $1,000, X 12 or 18 (months), is a staggering sum of money — closer to $4 Tn, or 18% of US GDP. Likewise, UK Chancellor Rishi Sunak pledged £330bn, or 15% of GDP, to support the economy, on top of a three-month mortgage payment holiday and a slew of tax deferments, and to do, as well, “whatever it takes”.

So, how come? How is this money suddenly available – when we have repeatedly been told in the wake of the 2008 crisis that austerity must be the only answer? Well, welcome to the ‘new orthodoxy’ (actually it is not new at all: France tried it in the eighteenth century when it ‘printed’ the Assignats). Call it ‘helicopter money’, or, the so-called ‘Modern Monetary Theory’: The principle is that it is okay to print money – if governments don’t otherwise have it. The point here is that ‘helicopter money’ (money conjured out of nothing: empty units reflecting no underlying real economic value) is a paradigm change. A major paradigm change.

It is the legacy from 2008. That was primarily a banking crisis: Printing money seemed to work out pretty well then, in the view of the élites. The main reason that those ‘experts’ have thought that printing money worked in the wake of 2008 was because the Central Banks were able to reflate the financialised asset bubbles.

“But that wasn’t success, that was failure”, financial guru, Peter Schiff comments. It was a failure because it resulted in even bigger bubbles, and even greater debt – which precisely has set us all up for today’s crisis: For we are going into this crisis naked of any real tools to deal with supply-shock.

In 2008, everybody believed the money ‘printing’ was temporary: Bank balance sheets were all gummed up; and the Fed was going to be able afterwards to normalize interest rates, and shrink its balance sheet. Well, nobody is going to believe that, this time. No, debts will soar – and will be ‘forever’ debts.

Yet for today’s policy-makers, it all seems so reasonable, so plausible: If the Fed floods the financial system with money, interest rates can stay at zero for ever. What’s not to like about this? Certainly, it fits with Trump’s real estate career, built on low interest, easy debt. Governments now may borrow for a hundred years at zero interest; and banks can lend like fury, as the Fed has dropped the requirement for banks to keep any reserves against their loans (i.e. to ‘print’ more easy credit for the favoured).

Better still, governments can just conjure the money out of thin air (by monetising its debts): It can use these funds to bail out all those businesses and citizens adversely affected by Covid-19, and become heroes. Welcome to the new ‘Orthodoxy’.

HIDDEN KNOWLEDGE

What we think we get WE GET!

But if they (Cabal) can keep you distracted and thinking of other things they can shape

everyone's reality away from what really matters.

The Cabal has used hidden knowledge to shape their EVIL plans.

Using their MSM to project their desired reality into the minds of the public

They have been able to use our collective power to create their world, this is why they use

think tanks and secret societies to shape reality for the masses. Wars, famine and disaster

to keep you in fear, one crisis after another.

Corona Virus is the next installment to drive panic, anxiety and primal fear, once

triggered these emotions over power rational thought in the sedated mind. You

become vulnerable and open to suggestion and herd mentality when in this state.

Eager to hand over your rights to the very people creating the crisis in the hope they

will somehow make you safe. RATIONAL THOUGHT IS LOST.

The issues they create exist in your mind planted there over the airways, whether it be

social media TV radio what ever flavor. We ignore the reality we see in real life choosing

to believe the information fed to us.

It is time to wake up and start using your own discernment.

We are the faithful servants of the most high here to guide humanity through their ascension from

a world ruled by darkness, greed, centralized control and PURE EVIL into the world of love, light

and righteousness.

It is time for each individual to make a personal connection with the most high, do it privately

ask for forgiveness first and then seek good things for those you care about. Pray for each

other. Doing so you join the body of Christ and together we will all be successful. This is the way the

life and the truth.

U.S. Orders Up To A Yearlong Break On Mortgage Payments

Homeowners who have lost income or their jobs because of the coronavirus outbreak are getting some relief. Depending on their situation, they should be eligible to have their mortgage payments reduced or suspended for up to 12 months.

Federal regulators, through the mortgage giants Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, are ordering lenders to offer homeowners flexibility. The move covers about half of all home loans in the U.S. — those guaranteed by Fannie and Freddie. But regulators expect that the entire mortgage industry will quickly adopt a similar policy.

Under the plan, people who have suffered a loss of income can qualify to make reduced payments or be granted a complete pause in payments.

“That forbearance is up to 12 months, depending on their particular situation,” says Mark Calabria, director of the Federal Housing Finance Agency, which oversees Fannie and Freddie.

Homeowners can’t just stop paying their mortgage. “They need to contact their servicer — that is the lender that they send the check to every month,” he says. “That lender will work with them to be able to work out a payment plan. Obviously, we hope to get them back on their feet as soon as possible.”

Calabria says people in financial distress because of the coronavirus can just verbally testify to that over the phone with their lender. Documenting the hardship can come later. “You’re not going to have to send 20 pieces of paper at the front of this,” he says. “We want to do it quickly.”

Kashkari Says Fed Has “Infinite” Amount Of Cash: “We Create It Electronically”

Either Neel Kashkari is long physical gold, or central bankers – those “magic people” in the words of Vitas Vasiliauskas – are intent on taking the world down with them instead of admitting they have inflated the biggest bubble ever and that the next inevitable step is fiat currency collapse.

Kashkari, who is part of a growing group of Monday morning quarterbacks who didn’t predict the financial impact of coronavirus until about 10 minutes ago, and who is best known for coming up with the TARP bailout amount during the first bailout yet has somehow managed to fail up all the way to being mentioned as Powell’s imminent replacement, added the certainty that only a Fed governor could add to the situation on 60 Minutes Sunday night.

“Are we in a recession?” he’s asked to start the interview. “If we’re not right now, we will be soon. My base case scenario is we’ll at least have a mild recession like after 9/11. The worst case would be we’d have a deep recession like the 2008 financial crisis, we just don’t know right now.” Kashkari says. “Nobody knows how the virus is going to progress,” he continued, scapegoating the medical community and laying the blame on the bursting of the biggest asset bubble on a virus.

Then, the peculiar topic of cash came up, at which point Kashkari shared an interesting anecdote.

“I heard from a bank in our region, a well-to-do customer came in and said ‘I want to withdraw $600,000 in cash.’ Now, we can supply all the cash that the banks need to meet their customer’s concerns. But it just speaks to the fear and the uncertainty that’s rippling through the economy,” he says.

When asked further about whether or not banks will have cash, he responded: “This is literally why Central Banks exist. We’re the lender of last resort. This is literally why Central Banks exist. If everybody gets scared at the same time and they demand their money back, that’s why the Federal Reserve is here. We will absolutely meet those demands.”

When asked if the Fed will just “literally print money,” Kashkari admits: “That’s literally what congress has told us to do. That’s the authority they have given us, to print money and provide liquidity into the financial system. We create it electronically and we can also print it, with the Treasury Department, so you can get money out of your ATMs.”

He was then asked about the bond market stress. “People are shunning US Treasury Bonds, which are always thought to be the safest possible investment,” the host says, very matter-of-factly.

Kashkari responds: “Keep in mind, treasury bond prices are still very high relative to history. They’re just not quite as high as they were a couple weeks ago. So they’re still viewed as a very safe investment. But this fear of where the virus is going to go is leading people to say ‘I just want cash’.”

Or, to loosely paraphrase Ray Dalio, in times of stress Treasuries are trash?

Again, matter-of-factly, the host asks: “Can you characterize everything the Fed has done this past week as essentially flooding the system with money?” To which Kashkari responds simply: “Yes.”

The host says “And there’s no end to your ability to do that?”

“There’s no end to our ability to do that.” He later added: “We’re far from out of ammunition…your ATM is safe, your banks are safe. There’s an infinite amount of cash at the Federal Reserve.”

Kashkari was greeted with a warm response on social media:
