The man President Donald Trump just named to speak for the Health Department accused George Soros and the Rothschild family of seeking to exploit the pandemic for control and to advance their agendas.

 

Michael Caputo, who advised Trump’s 2016 campaign, last week became the spokesman for the Department of Health and Human Services, reportedly in part because of Trump’s dissatisfaction with how the department secretary, Alex Azar, was handling communications during the crisis.

 

Caputo, known for his pugilistic style, deleted tens of thousands of tweets just before the appointment. CNN on Thursday uncovered dozens of the tweets, including attacks on the Chinese tinged with racially charged imagery, accusations that Democrats wanted people to die so Trump would not be reelected and disparagement of the media.

 

On March 17, responding to David Rothschild, an economist who often is caustically critical of Trump and accused Trump of “wanting to murder” people to stay in power, Caputo said that Rothschild “is an inbred elitist sphincter whose family craves control. That’s one reason why he constantly lies about President Trump.”

 

The New York economist is not related to the European family, which for centuries has been the target of anti-Semitic slanders that it is seeking world dominance.

 

On March 15, Caputo responded to a far-right figure, Jack Prosobiec, who wondered on Twitter why George Soros, the liberal philanthropist was ready to give to his favored political causes but not to efforts to combat the coronavirus.

 

“Are you kidding? Soros’s political agenda REQUIRES a pandemic,” Caputo said. Soros has given tens of millions of dollars to coronavirus relief.

 

On March 27, Caputo tweeted a photo of Soros captioned “The real virus behind everything,” and added skulls and crossbones.

North Korea’s recent announcement of restrictions on imports of “unnecessary items” has led to a spate of “panic buying” in Pyongyang, Daily NK has learned.

 

“Prices of all sorts of goods have continued to increase since the announcement was made, and people are buying up what they can,” a Daily NK source based in Pyongyang reported earlier today.

 

Daily NK had reported on Apr. 22 that a “joint decision document” signed by both the country’s Cabinet and communist party’s Central Committee was handed down to organizations throughout the country. The document stated that the country had implemented restrictions on imports of “unimportant” items such as seasonings for food and electronics.

 

Several Pyongyang sources told Daily NK that the “panic buying” in the capital city began on Apr. 18 – the day after the import restrictions-related announcement was made – and that the prices of imported food, condiments and electronics sold in various stores have continued increase since then.

 

Sources explained that panic buying in Pyongyang had happened twice before this year. The first time was right after the authorities shut down the Sino-North Korean border to prevent a COVID-19 outbreak in late January.

 

The second time, according to Daily NK sources, occurred after an order was handed down by provincial party committees throughout the country in late February ordering everyone to “prepare one month’s supply of food.”

 

While that February order was not handed down to Pyongyang residents, news of the order in other parts of the country was picked up by Pyongyangites and they reportedly engaged in a short-lived spate of hoarding.

 

Meanwhile, local officials in the city have spread propaganda emphasizing solidarity and that people should “tighten their belts” and put “trust in the party” to get through this “difficult period” just like they did during the “period of rebuilding after the Korean War.”
