Report warned of coronavirus crisis in November "Analysts concluded it could be a cataclysmic event"

Intelligence report warned of coronavirus crisis as early as November: Sources
"Analysts concluded it could be a cataclysmic event," a source said.

AKA Trump knew about "it" and did nothing except that he and Kush-Turd invested in HCQ (hydroxycholorquine)
and their own C-19 test kits instead of using the one from the W.H.O..

As far back as late November, U.S. intelligence officials were warning that a contagion was sweeping through China’s Wuhan region, changing the patterns of life and business and posing a threat to the population, according to four sources briefed on the secret reporting.

The report was the result of analysis of wire and computer intercepts, coupled with satellite images. It raised alarms because an out-of-control disease would pose a serious threat to U.S. forces in Asia -- forces that depend on the NCMI’s work. And it paints a picture of an American government that could have ramped up mitigation and containment efforts far earlier to prepare for a crisis poised to come home.

"Analysts concluded it could be a cataclysmic event," one of the sources said of the NCMI’s report. "It was then briefed multiple times to" the Defense Intelligence Agency, the Pentagon’s Joint Staff and the White House. Wednesday night, the Pentagon issued a statement denying the "product/assessment" existed.

"As a matter of practice the National Center for Medical Intelligence does not comment publicly on specific intelligence matters. However, in the interest of transparency during this current public health crisis, we can confirm that media reporting about the existence/release of a National Center for Medical Intelligence Coronavirus-related product/assessment in November of 2019 is not correct. No such NCMI product exists," the statement said.

The White House National Security Council and the Office of the Director of National Intelligence declined to comment.

Some of Carl Reiner's last words

Edit .... I just noticed that these tweets are already up on the home page.


As I arose at 7:30 this morning, I was saddened to relive the day that led up to the election of a bankrupted and corrupt businessman who had no qualifications to be the leader of any country in the civilized world...

... At the same time, Hillary Clinton, who had all the needed qualifications to lead our beloved nation, had received 3 million more popular votes than our Russian-installed puppet president.

BTW the Clinton Foundation through the use of science, communication, and global leadership has kept >10,000 HIV + people from getting full blown AIDs. Gee, we couldn’t use that skill now could we?

Let's be real. Is Trump trying to kill as many people as possible? No other way to look @ it.

Despite a staggering rise in the the #s of cases of C-19 Trump has continued to hold
large public events where people do not socially distance themselves and the vast
majority do not wear masks.

He has held rallies in Tulsa, Phoenix Arizona, last night @ Mt. Rushmore, and tonight
a second 4th of July fireworks display in Washington D.C.. Trump knows what he is doing
and that is to get sick as many people as possible even though those people are his
supporters. I might be wrong but I don't think so.
