US and Japan Take the Lead in Decentralizing from China | CCP Virus|COVID-19|Coronavirus|Epoch news
The CCP virus pandemic has forced all countries across the globe to rethink the risks of having economic trades with the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). Among these countries, the U.S. and Japan are taking some important measures to accelerate the process of decentralizing from the CCP.
Presently, a renowned Japanese brand, Iris Ohyama, may be the very first company to receive subsidies from the Japanese government’s Supply Chain Restructuring Program. They are planning to move the production of non-woven fabric, the raw material for facial masks, from China back to Japan in order to increase the local productivity of facial masks. On April 9, the Japanese government declared that it has $2.2 billion U.S. dollars in funding to assist Japanese companies returning from China and resettling in Japan or other countries in Southeast Asia.
On the same day, the Director of the United States of Economic Council, Larry Kudlow, suggested that the U.S. should help pay for the costs related to the relocation of those American companies that want to leave China. Eric Brown, a senior researcher at Hudson Institute, said, “Japan is seriously thinking about how to best position its economic recovery and to bring about the benefits of geopolitics. The United States of American should do the same.”
Economist Stephen Moore from The Heritage Foundation expressed, “Many CEO’s and companies are moving forward now without any kind of government assistance because they don’t think China is reliable and trustworthy any longer, and “Made in China” is just not a saler in the United States anymore, and so there are a lot of forces that are moving towards bringing it home “Made in the U.S.A.”
In addition to the reassessment of supply chain management, the U.S. Financial Sector is also now re-examining the risks of Chinese companies listed on the stock market. On April 21, the Chairman of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commision, Jay Clayton, the Chairman of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, William Duhnke, and 3 other individuals issued a joint statement warning investors of the financial risks of Chinese companies.
Due to the lack of transparency in the financial reports of Chinese companies over the past years, it is very unlikely that the investors will be compensated when things go wrong. Experts believe that this CCP virus pandemic has urged countries to rethink the risks of dealing financially with China and the importance of decentralization with China. Senior Director of The National Interest, Harry Kazianis, said,“As you see more of these supply chains leaving China going back to the U.S., back to other countries, they are going to have less of a reason to say nice things and do nice things for China, and I think you will see things change pretty quickly after that.”

Guangzhou Store Owners Demanding Rent Reductions Are Suppressed by Police | CCP Virus | COVID-19
Store owners in Guangzhou demanded rent deduction in strikes, but were suppressed.
There are more than 100,000 residents in Hubei province working in garment factories or owning shops in the Haizhu District. But because of the CCP virus pandemic, no one is able to sell anything. On April 21 and 22, store owners from many cities in Haizhu District went on strike and protested in the streets, shouting the slogan “Rent Deduction,” which caused suppression and many arrests by police officers and the military.
Store and garment factory owners have been demanding rent deduction for 3 months, but the government has not yet replied to the request. Store owners from Shang Yong Tsun, Hou Jiao, Kang Le, Lu Jiang and other cities in Haizhu District in Guangzhou, went on strike for two consecutive days and chanted the slogan “Rent Deduction.”
The live video: “Ah! Police brutality! Police brutality! Ah! Ah!”
Mr. Li, a hotel owner from Shang Yong Tsun in Guangzhou, expressed that the hotel’s stay rate is low because of the CCP pandemic, but he still needs to pay the expensive rent. They went on to protest in the streets but were suppressed by police officers who beat up and arrested some of them. The government officials only mitigated the situation with words but never actually implemented a rent deduction.
He further added: “Nobody comes to stay. These properties are state-owned, some of them are privately owned, but the government has not yet replied. I saw the news on TV and on my phone the day before yesterday, on how the Secretary promised a 3-month rent deduction. However, it has not yet been implemented here. The police officers are the worst and I am afraid.”
Mr. Wang is a garment factory owner in Lu Jiang village, Guangzhou, and he expressed that his national orders have decreased due to the pandemic. They have demanded a 3-month rent deduction but the government has not replied yet. Ultimately, he was only given 1 month of rent deduction.
He added: “They cut 2 weeks off for 2 months, which is only one month in total. I don’t know what they did because we asked for a 3-month rent deduction.”
According to the official data in Haizhu District, there are almost 190,000 people from Hubei Province registered there and they are mostly concentrated in places like Kang Le village. As a result, these villages are called Hubei Villages. These people from Hubei Province mostly work in garment manufacturing and fulfill orders for apparel in wholesale markets such as Gaungzhou Bai Ma, Sha He, and Shi San Xing.

[Exclusive]CCP Virus Patient Charged 50,000 Yuan for ‘Free’ Treatment|CCP Virus|COVID-19|Coronavirus
Ms. He, a Wuhan resident whose father is severely ill with the CCP virus pneumonia, commonly known as Wuhan pneumonia, recently tried to seek help on the Internet. Although her father is still in the ICU department on a ventilator, his nucleic acid test came out negative for the virus. The hospital told her that based on this negative result, her father’s treatment is no longer free. Her family has been charged 50,000 yuan ($7,060) as a result.
Her father was originally hospitalized in Jinyintan Hospital, an infectious disease hospital and the very first hospital to provide treatment for the CCP viral pneumonia. Chinese authorities publicly announced that there are zero severely ill CCP virus patients in the ICU department of Jinyintan hospital. They’re claiming it’s a sign of victory over the pandemic. However, Ms. He revealed that’s because all the severely ill patients, including her father, were transferred from Jinyintan to another hospital.

Information Warfare by a Treasonous Demonrat General!
I cannot believe that they put this out in public! These people are stupid! This general probably needs an appointment at GITMO soon!
This is an unbelievable article on how a Peanut General thinks that he can run information warfare on American citizens that are supporting Trump. Isn’t he supposed to support the american people, not his Demon-rat masters! GITMO his ASS!
From the Article
“The group, Defeat Disinfo, will use artificial intelligence and network analysis to map discussion of the president’s claims on social media. It will seek to intervene by identifying the most popular counter-narratives and boosting them through a network of more than 3.4 million influencers across the country – in some cases paying users with large followings to take sides against the president.”
Is this TREASON against his commander in chief?
Initiative seeks to challenge Trump’s online megaphone
A new Democratic-aligned political action committee advised by retired Army Gen. Stanley McChrystal, the former head of U.S. forces in Afghanistan, is planning to deploy technology originally developed to counter Islamic State propaganda in service of a domestic political goal – to combat online efforts to promote President Donald Trump’s handling of the coronavirus pandemic.
The group, Defeat Disinfo, will use artificial intelligence and network analysis to map discussion of the president’s claims on social media. It will seek to intervene by identifying the most popular counter-narratives and boosting them through a network of more than 3.4 million influencers across the country – in some cases paying users with large followings to take sides against the president.
The initiative reflects fears within the Democratic Party that Trump’s unwavering digital army may help sustain him through the pandemic, as it has through past controversies, even as the economy craters, tens of thousands have died, and Trump suffers in the polls.
“It’s often said campaigns are a battle of ideas, but they’re really a battle of narratives,” said David Eichenbaum, a Democratic media consultant who is a senior adviser to the PAC. “Today those narratives spread quickly online.”
The initiative is run by Curtis Hougland, whose received initial funding for the technology from DARPA, the Pentagon’s research arm, as part of an effort to combat extremism overseas. He insists Democrats are ill-prepared for the looming battle over information and attention, which is bound to play an outsize role in November.
Hougland cites as an example Trump’s suggestion last week that injecting bleach or other household disinfectants could be a treatment for the novel coronavirus – a moment that appeared unequivocally damaging to the president but was less clear-cut as it unfolded on social media. Although the episode was associated with a spike in Twitter engagement about Trump, especially in swing states such as Wisconsin and Pennsylvania, according to Hougland’s analysis, four of the top six tweets about Trump and disinfectant came from accounts partial to the president, boosting the notion that he had not really suggested the bogus cure.
Among them was a tweet from Ryan Fournier, national co-chair of Students for Trump, who wrote, “No, President Trump did not tell people to inject themselves with Clorox or Lysol. If you believe that, you’re a moron.”
Fournier said there’s a grass-roots digital army prepared to defend the president when his back is against the wall.
“I see the people on Twitter,” he said. “I see the Facebook groups. I see the posts across these networks. I see the websites people have created to support the president. It’s tremendous amounts of stuff that I’ve never seen in a presidential election before.”
Hougland agreed. Republicans, he said, “have greater volume frequency and quality of digital narrative.”
Though he is advising the overtly political effort, McChrystal stopped short of endorsing Trump’s opponent, former vice president Joe Biden, whom the former general once criticized as part of a dust-up that led to his resignation.
McChrystal said his interest in the PAC is about ensuring the accuracy of information leading up to the election, even if it involves chasing viral attention with emotional appeals and other tactics rewarded by online clicks.
“Everyone wishes the Pandora’s box was closed and none of this existed, but it does,” McChrystal said in an interview.
His ambivalence is shared by large parts of the Democratic Party, which recoiled at an effort, brought to light at the end of 2018, to use Russian-inspired tactics, including the creation of fake accounts, to sway the 2017 Senate election in Alabama.
Hougland’s PAC shuns these methods. Yet it differs from more traditional Democratic-aligned PACs, such as Priorities USA and American Bridge 21st Century, in embracing the practice of paying influencers to convey their messaging. The approach raised eyebrows and prompted tech companies to clarify their rules when it was put into practice by Mike Bloomberg’s presidential campaign earlier this year.
“I have no trepidation about paying content creators in seeking out and amplifying the best narratives,” Hougland said.
Stephanie Berger, a former national finance director for the Democratic National Committee, is raising funds for the initiative, which is an extension of Hougland’s technology company, Main Street One. Andrew Tobias, a former DNC treasurer, was an earlier investor in the start-up.
Main Street One’s leaders were previously involved in cultivating digital narratives in Eastern Europe to counter Russian propaganda and, more recently, have waded into American politics. The organization ran a campaign that paid influencers to boost Kentucky Democrats before the gubernatorial election last fall. A super PAC supporting Sen. Cory Booker of New Jersey in his bid for the Democratic nomination paid Main Street One more than $500,000 for similar services last year.
Hougland said his aim is to maintain the “largest repository of content against Trump,” and to be nimble in boosting organic material that is already performing well, such as videos produced by the Biden campaign.
The presumptive Democratic nominee, whose primary bid counted on the gulf between Twitter and real life, has sought to expand his digital prowess as campaigning has gone fully virtual. He anchors a new podcast, and his campaign is plugging virtual rallies with mantras like “#SoulSaturday” designed to compete with Trump’s digital reach.
At the same time, Biden’s aides are betting that the president’s bully pulpit is just as likely to turn voters off as it is to win them over. Matt Hill, a campaign spokesman, pointed to recent moves by the president’s team to “pull back his daily disinformation shows as his credibility continues to sink.”
But Joe Trippi, a Democratic operative who helped manage the 2017 Senate campaign in Alabama, said the president is partially insulated from the fallout over his own remarks by a “media echo chamber that is very disciplined about just picking up whatever the misdirection of the day is and amplifying it.” That protective armor makes it all the more critical for Democrats to turn up the volume on anti-Trump messaging, he said.
But Trippi wondered about the long-term consequences of adopting some of the online tactics favored by the right.
“Once someone does something that works, it’s usually picked up by the other side,” Trippi said. “You’ve got to fight it, but the question is, like negative ads, if it works, do you just get better and better at it? I don’t think that’d be very helpful for our democracy.”
Restraint could be a more effective approach, said Cindy Otis, a former CIA officer and disinformation researcher. She stressed the need to illustrate the real-world consequences of the president’s words, for instance demonstrating that his comments about bleach were followed by a spike in calls to emergency hotlines.
Otherwise, she said, “it’s most effective to counter false narratives with straight-up facts.”
