Fed Protects Politicians’ Covid Portfolios

Reuters is reporting that a FOIA request they made to the US Federal Reserve for documents that would reveal the types of Covid-beneficial trades that our elected politicians and appointed experts have been engaged in has been summarily and fully and completely and finally DENIED.
That’s right, folks, we the American people and the ‘free press’ have no right to know just how the ones who have been orchestrating our Covid culture for the last two years may have or may not have benefited by the decisions they made that had such profound effects on hundreds of millions of the human beings they allege to be serving, most of which have been resoundingly negative.
While children have seen their lives upended and turned into mask ghost life floating on zoom calls, our politicians and experts have had free rein to trade in our markets as they saw fit, with no accountability, and with immunity from insider trading laws. The wealth shift in America has been astounding, and it happened under the so-called party of the poor, the Democrat Party. But that party has morphed into an elite club of mad billionaires who want to live forever and float around space from their giant enormity, lording it over the very poors the DNC once alleged to champion.
We have become their experiment in the religion of elite man makes poor man in his image and purges the unmakeable from the frame. This is the reality of power when the advantaged attain what I call Citadelian status, where they exist outside the socio-cultural consequences of action the vast majority of us find ourselves facing. These consequences are the result, mostly, of the opportunistic power-advantaged exapting any popular outrage ideology into a social control device designed to eliminate future competition to the power the advantaged currently hold.
From Christianity to Islam, from Confucianism to Buddhism, from every philosophical, theological, economical, scientific thought that gained an audience, the power-advantaged were ready to exapt the patterns from serving the cause to exploiting, commodifying, ‘tweaking’ the original code, preserving the language and the emotions, but creating new outcomes, outcomes designed to serve the very people that created the outrage from which the original ideas emerged in the first place.
The bible verse, Isiah 30:18 constantly comes to mind, and I will continue to repeat it wherever I see it lived out again.
As for the scoundrel, his devices are evil; he plans wicked schemes to ruin the poor with lying words even when the plea of the needy is right.
Don’t expect our masters to expose the gosh derned business just yet, folks, but, nice try Reuters. Maybe your masters have realized their team may have gone too far, and there will be heck to pay when the inevitable happens and the truth of the colonization of the American lands in the Covid culture of the DNC using fear and hate to create just enough compliant, just enough willing to enforce the ‘new normal,’ which was, and is, nothing short of doing anything possible to dismantle the American culture of the Bill of Rights, where, no matter the vote or the good intentions, the state cannot violate the basic sovereignty of the individual, from which its fundamental authority and legitimacy is derived.
We are not a nation of priest-kings and gnostic-like shamans with gossamer-winged languages to mesmerize us to complacency. Our ploughmen know the Bill of Rights code and, so far, that spirit does not appear to have died in the majority of Americans, across all the divides the DNC would have you zealously fixate your whole heart and mind upon, as if your very life were nothing in comparison to ending hate once and for all, ending history, ending god and entering man, in total, in everything, in full equality, in ecstasy of union……etc……That spirit has names that go back thousands of years, with Balaam perhaps being the most often used, the spirit of sacrifice, where the new and the old are sacrificed to the now, the disciples of the social where human becomes all in all by all for all, and all non-human is purged from the living.
The ecstasy of the left was protected today by the Federal Reserve, for now, but lies beget lies beget enemies beget secret recordings, etc, etc, etc….It’s only a matter of time before Haman learns why he ordered the gallows made in the first place. Hint, it wasn’t for who he thought it was for.

Fed denies release of correspondence on pandemic trades made by policymakers

Excerpt:

 

Feb 9 (Reuters) – The U.S. Federal Reserve, responding to a Freedom of Information Act request by Reuters, said there are about 60 pages of correspondence between its ethics officials and policymakers regarding financial transactions conducted during the pandemic year 2020.

But it “denied in full” to release the documents, citing exemptions under the information act that it said applied in this case.

The disclosure of trading by two regional reserve bank presidents during the pandemic led them to resign last fall, and prompted Fed chair Jerome Powell to overhaul Fed ethics rules and request the central bank’s inspector general to investigate.

The FOIA responses to Reuters for the first time quantify how much back and forth may have occurred over policymakers’ personal trading in a year when markets first cratered, then rebounded on the basis of both massive federal fiscal stimulus and an aggressive rescue effort by the…

UK Culture Secretary Nadine Dorries has warned Mark Zuckerberg and other Social Media magnates that their days might be numbered if they don’t comply with the Online Safety Bill she is working to get passed.  The bill would make the social media platforms responsible for the illegal activity that takes place on its site, meaning the owners themselves could be arrested by the British police for crimes committed on their platform if the crimes take place in the UK.
The bill, if it becomes law, could effectivel end social media in Britain, as the cost to enforce your platform might be prohibitively expensive.

Mark Zuckerberg could end up in jail if Facebook does not comply with new online safety laws, the UK Culture Secretary has warned.

Nadine Dorries warned that she was putting social media giants such as Facebook on notice with her Online Safety Bill which is supposed to force online giants to act on illegal content on its platforms.

On Friday, it was announced the long-awaited Bill had been strengthened with the addition of a number of new criminal offences to force social media firms to act on illegal content more quickly.

Offences such as revenge porn, hate crime, fraud, the sale of illegal drugs or weapons, the promotion or facilitation of suicide, people smuggling and sexual exploitation have been added to the list of priority offences that must be removed by platforms under the new rules.

Hunter Biden’s Partner Was Chinese Communist Party Intelligence Official

A Breitbart Investigative Reporter named Peter Schweizer is claiming that the Biden family has received more than $30 million from high-ranking officials of the Chinese Communist Party, officials who happen to be involved in “Chinese Intelligence.”

Hunter Biden’s business partner, for instance, was the vice minister at the ministry for state security, according to Schwiezer.

We here at The Freedomist have hopefully been showing you in part how the American ‘left,’ a coalition of white urban youth, the disenfranchised, intelligencia, and internationalist billionaires, would need a nation such as China, with its vast markets, to help fund the projects that are designed to create humans rather than serve them.  Our entertainment, our education, our politics, our religions, all of it is now called into question by the new types of values this coalition hopes to foist on Americans, knowing full well their values are anti-American in that their ‘solutions’ require a dismantling of the Bill of Rights.

The disenfranchised and the white urban youth might actually believe they’re working to end racism and bigotry, but the billionaires that manipulate them are only interested in ending the Bill of Rights.  They’d use any means, any belief system they could to end that impediment to their ability to move as fast as their competitors, the same China this coalition currently needs to fund its un-monetizable propaganda.

If the media were suddenly to be owned by Americans rather than Chinese Communist Party collusionists, what would that media have to say about a story like this?  Well, for starters, they’d talk about it, something the current media corporatists are making sure doesn’t happen, lest their whole scheme be ‘exposed.’  Newsflash paranoid media, your schemes have long been exposed.

 

Biden Family Received ‘Some $31 Million’ from Individuals Linked to ‘Highest Levels of Chinese Intelligence’

Breitbart News senior contributor Peter Schweizer on Sunday revealed how the Biden family have profited from business with individuals “linked to the highest levels of Chinese intelligence.”

Schweizer, the author of Red-Handed: How American Elites Get Rich Helping China Win, said Biden’s son Hunter, while the elder Biden was serving as both vice president and president, was engaged in deals with individuals tied to the highest levels of Chinese intelligence. He called the Biden family’s business dealings “unprecedented.”

“One of the most startling things we uncovered is the simple fact that the Biden family, while he was vice president of the United States and continuing when he became president, received some $31 million from Chinese individuals who are linked to the highest levels of Chinese intelligence,” Schweizer outlined on Fox News Channel’s Life, Liberty & Levin.

….“His business partner was the vice minister at the ministry for state security,” Schweizer added. “He was in charge of, among other things, recruiting foreign nationals to spy for China. He was the head of something called the Number Eight Bureau. It doesn’t get any higher than that. These are the sorts of individuals that were striking deals with Hunter Biden. In this particular case, Che Feng happened to help a $20 million deal be secured. Another individual that helped arrange that deal is a guy named Mr. Zhao. Mr. Zhao helped with that $20 million deal. He also sent $5 million to Hunter Biden, and he sent that money from a very interesting business called Harvest Global.”

Russians Show Us Why AI Without the Bill of Rights is a Police State

The Russian government has released some details of a recent experiment to utilize neural network artificial intelligence to attempt to trach down the locations of protestors based on video surveillance the AI was able to analyze.  The experiment netted the arrests of 454 protestors in 17 cities across Russia.  The expermient happened last year.

In nations such as Russia, and even more in nations such as China, these types of human control toys will be readily deployed with little to any fear of any ‘legal’ pushback from courts or citizens.  In nations such as America, so long as the DNC does NOT consolidate power, human control toys such as these run afowl of many of our essential Bills of Rights, the code of conduct from which our government’s power is legitimized.  Without honoring that code of conduct, the government loses its very legitimacy.

One of the reasons the DNC and its particular group of billionaires have latched on to the moral supremacism of “CRT” is that it is hoped the new moral code of CRT will override the Bill of Rights code of conduct of the American republic.  It’s a de facto act of sedition highlighted by this Russian report which demonstrates the existential danger of allowing our American lands to lose their Bill of Rights constraint on the state.

You Can End Inflation Mr. Biden, by Convening Bretton Woods II

by Ralph Benko

There is one, unconventional way to quell inflation without recession; it would save Joe Biden’s presidency. Conventional folk think the gold standard an anachronism.

Think different.

Inflation is putting Biden into desperate political peril. His popularity rating is lower than any modern president (except Trump) at the comparable time in his presidency.

Sending shockwaves through the political class, the Republicans dominate Democrats in the generic poll. I’m not an alarmist. But this scenario is, as it should be, alarming to Democrats.

It’s also alarming to me, a paleoconservative Republican. I, the “second most conservative man in the world” (per a Washington Post columnist), fear that a GOP political hegemony will degenerate into the Republicans’ default country-club Republican policies of mercantilist oligarchy in supply-side drag.

The reversion to Republican mean, ThurstonHowellIIIconomics, “freshen Lovey’s martini Gilligan, chop chop!” Pretty mean!

Mr. President? Go for the gold!

It’s curious. Yet political transformation often comes from the unexpected source.

Nixon’s anti-communist credentials from his congressional days persecuting Soviet gentleman-spy Alger Hiss immunized him to claims of softness on Communism.

Nixon to China!

Welcome to the “Twilight Zone” of politics where the right does the left thing, and the left does the right thing. And everybody grumble-cheers.

It goes both ways. From out of left field, wholesale deregulation was pioneered by President Jimmy Carter.

The big push for dropping the top income tax rate, attributed to Reagan, came from top Democrats: Rep. Dan Rostenkowski, D-Ill., and Speaker Tip O’Neill, D-Mass., dropping the top rate from 70% to 50% (Sen. Joe Biden, D-Del., voted aye).

Then, Sen. Bill Bradley, D-N.J., and Rep. Dick Gephardt, D-Mo., to 28% (Sen. Joe Biden voting aye). President Bill Clinton gave the capital gains tax rate a whopping cut. (Sen. Joe Biden voted aye.)

Now? Inflation is a dagger at the jugular of the Biden presidency.

What to do that would be safe and effective and dramatic enough to persuade us pesky voters that Biden has a firm grip on ending inflation?

Let’s walk the cat backwards. President Lyndon B. Johnson, who shut down the London gold pool, and President Richard M. Nixon, who “temporarily” closed the “gold window,” were the perps letting the inflation genie out of the bottle.

The world monetary order of the prosperous, low inflation, post-war era was constituted by the Bretton Woods Agreement. This was an international gold standard, with a critical flaw.

Making the dollar, as well as gold, the official reserve asset for central banks was a subtle, fatal error. It led to a “melancholy, long, withdrawing” of gold from America’s reserves, plaguing both America and the world.

As foreseen by distinguished French economist Jacques Rueff, mentor of supply-side titan Lewis E. Lehrman (my own mentor), that world monetary order was doomed to a slow death.

On Nixon’s watch, the final nail was driven in.

Nixon, under the insidious influence of his treasury secretary John Connally – a moral bankrupt who died a spectacular literal bankrupt – officially closed the gold window. The pernicious Nixonian system of floating exchange rates today curses us to inequitable economic stagnation.

The fiduciary (paper) dollar is the last remnant of the “Nixon Shock.”

Republicans have proven incapable of unwinding it for very parochial reasons.

The classical gold standard, which had collapsed at the very start of World War I, was falsely indicted for causing the Great Depression under Herbert Hoover a generation later.

It wasn’t the Republicans’ fault.

It was, in the words of  Rueff, a grotesque caricature of the gold standard that collapsed, an earlier gold-exchange standard.

Then FDR, under the guidance of the leading commodities economist of his day, George Warren, properly revalued the dollar from $20.67 to $35. The Great Depression lifted immediately and spectacularly. Per Pulitzer Prize-winning Liaquat Ahamed’s definitive account:

“During the following three months, wholesale prices jumped by 45% and stock prices doubled. With prices rising, the real cost of borrowing money plummeted. New orders for heavy machinery soared by 100%, auto sales doubled, and overall industrial production shot up 50%.”

Bad monetary policy by FDR’s Treasury, in which FDR acquiesced, thereafter caused a second dip in the Great Depression. That said, that first prosperity surge points the way out.

Joe Biden has an opportunity to go down in history as equal to or greater than FDR. How?

By convening a new Bretton Woods conference. Just as the late, great Paul Volcker, who quelled inflation in the 1980s, called for.

There, Biden should legally remove the dollar’s (and all currencies) reserve currency status while revaluing the dollar to around $2,000/ounce, or slightly higher, to preempt a worker/debtor damaging deflation such as crushed Britain in 1925.

Thereby, Mr. President, forge a legacy to rival that of FDR’s.

End inflation, restore equitable prosperity; enjoy the popularity and golden age legacy that Bretton Woods II, done right, would bring you.

Inflation’s Back!

by Ralph Benko

Hey la, President Biden?

Remember “The Angels“?

Inflation’s back and you’re gonna be in trouble.

Hey la, hey la, inflation’s back!

Uh oh.

While your administration denied resurging inflation Newsmax was ahead of it. Relying on the work of Prof. Steve Hanke, over six months ago I asked: Will Inflation Be the Sweet Meteor of Political Death for the Biden Administration?

Hanke’s a distinguished monetary economist. Plus: bipartisan!

Former Clinton Treasury Secretary and Director of Obama’s National Economic Policy Council Dr. Larry Summers also sounded the alarm last February, in The Washington Post:

“First… there is a chance that macroeconomic stimulus on a scale closer to World War II levels than normal recession levels will set off inflationary pressures of a kind we have not seen in a generation, with consequences for the value of the dollar and financial stability.”

The Biden White House did not just ignore Summers. It attacked him.

Ryan Lizza, Garrett Ross and Eli Okun recently asked in Newsmax’s scrappy rival, Politico, Does the WH owe Larry Summers an apology?

The reaction from the White House was fierce. Top advisers rushed to the cameras to push back. … Privately, White House officials were withering in their attacks on Summers. The White House continued to downplay inflation throughout the spring and summer. … They were wrong.”

An apology? Larry Summers once appeared on the cover of TIME with Alan Greenspan and Bob Rubin as “The Committee to Save the World.”

Summers can take care of himself. Rather, President Biden owes it to himself to consider appointing an inflation hawk like Summers Fed Chair. Or, say, Prof. Hanke.

Now the Great Mentioner is mentioning only two candidates, both monetary doves: Jerome Powell and Lael Brainard. Both are honorable, smart and capable.

But doves.

Political handicappers are calling a near lock for Powell. Mr. President?

This is no time for inflation doves.

Biden may confront the fate of presidents injured, even politically crippled, by inflation. Consider the political careers of Johnson, Nixon, Ford and Carter, all presiding over inflation, all seeing their presidencies terminated with extreme prejudice.

Coincidence? Not really.

As the first celebrity economist, John Maynard Keynes, wrote in The Economic Consequences of the Peace:

“Lenin is said to have declared that the best way to destroy the capitalist system was to debauch the currency. By a continuing process of inflation, governments can confiscate, secretly and unobserved, an important part of the wealth of their citizens. By this method they not only confiscate, but they confiscate arbitrarily; and, while the process impoverishes many, it actually enriches some. The sight of this arbitrary rearrangement of riches strikes not only at security, but at confidence in the equity of the existing distribution of wealth.

“Lenin was certainly right. There is no subtler, no surer means of overturning the existing basis of society than to debauch the currency. The process engages all the hidden forces of economic law on the side of destruction and does it in a manner which not one man in a million is able to diagnose.”

Inflation—felt as rising prices yet really a sinking dollar—is politically lethal. Most politicians mishandle it. It’s that insidious.

President Biden? You are a self-proclaimed champion of capitalism and equity. So, now, pivot to good monetary policy to preempt “all the hidden forces of economic law” from settling “on the side of destruction.”

Do not end up like the hapless Jimmy Carter. As I wrote here in Will President Biden Keep Inflation from Destroying Capitalism:

Carter, in a national address, on October 24, 1978: “Inflation is obviously a serious problem. What is the solution? I do not have all the answers. Nobody does. Perhaps there is no complete and adequate answer.”

Balderdash. Top economists like Friedman and Mundell knew precisely what causes inflation. We then knew and still know the solution.

The charter document for Supply Side economics was the Mundell-Laffer Hypothesis. By far most of it was about monetary policy (noting the advantages of the gold standard for quelling inflation and creating equitable prosperity). The “Laffer Curve” was, literally, a footnote.

Reagan, campaigning on Jack Kemp’s Supply Side platform, beat Carter. Then Reagan embraced a stable dollar, giving Fed Chairman Paul Volcker the support he needed to end inflation.

Thereafter the economy soared, propelling Reagan to a historic 49-state landslide. The Supply Side formula propelled the Dow from 814 to, over time, 36,000+ while doubling America’s real per capita GDP.

To swipe a phrase from Vice President Joe Biden: BFD!

President Biden? To regain the esteem of the American people, ignore the well-intentioned experts who led you astray.

Select an inflation hawk to chair the Federal Reserve. Say… Larry Summers.

Or maybe even a Mundell acolyte: Steve Hanke. Onward to a golden age?

Hey la, hey la, inflation’s back!

The Season of Covid Confounds the Secular World

Time for a Renewal of Faith and Reason

As Covid deaths pass 800,000 by government accounts I ask this question… Who is stronger, smarter, and more adaptable to the operational environment – President Biden or nature?

The higher power of nature, AKA God, is the clear winner. Perhaps it is time to rethink the path we are on? This one appears a road filled with many known craters and still more unknown sink holes. So, where do we turn to gather the political wisdom of the ages to make the needed changes and the strength to accomplish the task?

This fall I was privileged to take a political theory class from a wonderful, Irish-born Catholic professor at Catholic University while finishing my PhD. His insight and humor opened doors! We covered the early Western philosophers from Plato and Socrates through St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas. Christ was actually mentioned in our political science class!

Learning about these early Western thinkers gives me great hope for our nation and new insights into the thoughts of our Founding Fathers. What they read, I read. Given the enormity of their undertaking one can see why they turned to God and the philosophers for guidance. Reading political thought “through the ages” in a short period of time was an incredible experience.

In Philadelphia our Founding Fathers, from all walks of life, discussed the best of ideas transcending time and space. They wrapped them up for us as a gift to future generations of Americans in the U.S. Constitution, Declaration of Independence, and Bill of Rights.

No other people in the history of the world have received such a precious and prescient present. What fascinates me about the early Western philosophers is the evolution in their thought. They understood the failings of individual men, offered ways to protect us from ourselves, and believed fully in our journey toward the transcendental. Our nation adopted these lessons at our founding.

We dismiss them too easily. We overlook teaching their thoughts in our government-run schools. And, we fail to absorb the timeless lessons they offer future generations. Our children must become reacquainted with the potential our Founding Fathers saw in each of us.

Despite fear of the passage these men envisioned a time yet to be fully realized. Let’s recapture it and begin the journey anew….

NYC Elections Open to Non-Citizens

“Approximately 808,000 “noncitizens” may vote in future New York City elections, if the City Council welcomes them to do so, as early as December. These potential new members of the electorate would include green card holders and those with certain work permits,” according to a November 29, 2021, Daily Caller story by Deroy Murdock.

If we lose our sovereignty, ALL is lost! There are 3 basic tests that are accepted and used since the start of the modern nation-state system in 1648 (Peace of Westphalia) to determine if a location is a nation-state. We’ve lost one principle and are losing the remaining two. A 3-legged stool can’t stand without all its legs intact and neither can the United States of America.

First, there is recognition of a country by an international legal body such as the UN. Check. We are recognized as a legal nation-state.

Second, the country must have a generally understood common culture… religion, language, etc. that unite the citizens as “one people.” WE ARE LOSING THIS ONE.

Third, there is a recognized physical border that differentiates the “us” from the “them.” WE ARE LOSING THIS ONE, TOO!

Many of our fellow citizens arrived from failed or failing states. None of our legal immigrants want us to become what they escaped from in the past. Yet here we are making big mistakes with the aid of countries such as China, Russia, Iran, and others supporting ideas antithetical to everything this country has stood for since 1776.

I am not proposing taking up arms. I am proposing that each of us, as Ronald Reagan said long ago, has a responsibility to ensure that freedom is preserved for the next generation. It may be uncomfortable to talk about with those who are indoctrinated with a false truth, but we must be active or there will be no country left for the next generation to inherit from us. It is no longer enough to simply raise our families and go to work. We need to move from a passive support of our beliefs to one of active participation.

That means getting out the vote and teaching those among us who lack an understanding of how and why our country was formed and the dangers we face today. Make people aware of what is happening inside the classroom, corporate America, the media, and our government.

We the people have the power to reclaim the nation-state our Founding Fathers designed to serve us – a country governed by the people with certain tasks assigned to government that individuals can’t easily handle. We have lost our way and become slaves to the state instead of citizens of the country!

If those of us who remember don’t speak up, those who never knew will be doomed to a dark future.

 

DNCalifornia Train Looters Steal 80 Plus Guns

The DNCalifornia approach to ending gun violence is by passing laws that make it as illegal as they can for law-abiding Americans to possess and bear arms.  While doing this, the DNCalifornia approach to crime is to simply stop trying to prevent it or bring people to account for committing these crimes (other than thought crimes).

The result is what one might expect, more criminals are getting more guns, making more law-abiding Americans in California vulnerable to more crime by said criminals who will continue to have guns while their victims now will not.  Now, they’re robbing freight trains and absconding with the guns the trains are transporting, and the DNCalifornia Governor’s response is to apologiize for suggesting these might be gangs doing these robbings.

More Than 80 Guns Stolen By Thieves Raiding Cargo Containers Near Los Angeles

More than 80 guns have been stolen from cargo trains in the Lincoln Heights rail yards since August, according to the Los Angeles Police Department and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives.

Five people have been arrested on various charges relating to the theft of 82 guns, but officials have been able to recover only a handful.

​​”I’ve got 24 years in LAPD, ex-military, secret clearance and I have to wait 10 days to get a new firearm and these guys are going into these containers with no locks and getting guns,” Capt. German Hurtado told the Los Angeles Times. “These guns were unguarded, unprotected. God knows how many guns have been stolen that way.”

Authorities suspect that a gang from Eastside Los Angeles is responsible for the thefts.

“This is bigger than we thought,” Hurtado said. “​​They aren’t just stealing shoes and stuff. This is an organized crime to the level they are stealing guns.”

Although they are among the most dangerous items taken from the…

Trudeau Can’t Shake the Canada Trucker Thunder

Canada’s truckers are shutting down the capitol and shutting down shipping over the government’s attempt to force truckers to get vaccinated, and boosted, and boosted, and boosted, and on and on.  The truckers have clogged up freeways leading in to Ottowa, virtually shutting it down.  The standoff has begun, and the truckers are well-funded through various means in what is becoming an international grass roots effort to end the Covid tyranny.

Truckers and protesters against Covid-19 mandates block a border crossing and flood Canada’s capital. Trudeau responds with sharp words

From www.cnn.com
2022-01-31 19:34:00

Excerpt:

 

The protests stemmed from the “Freedom Convoy” of truckers that traveled across Canada for several days before arriving in the capital city of Ottawa on Saturday. The drivers oppose a recent vaccine mandate requiring truckers entering Canada to be fully vaccinated or face testing and quarantine requirements.

Downtown Ottawa remained packed with rigs and cars Monday morning as protesters rallied against Covid-19 mandates and some legislators were set to return to Parliament Hill.

Trudeau and his family have been quarantining at an undisclosed location, but he had sharp words for those causing turmoil:

“I want to be very clear: We are not intimidated by those who hurl insults and abuse at small business workers and steal food from the homeless,” he said. “We won’t give in to those who fly racist flags. We won’t cave to those who engage in vandalism or dishonor the memory of our veterans.”

In western Canada, trucks and cars have been blocking the Coutts border crossing just north of Sweet Grass, Montana, where Interstate 15 is a major commercial artery for US-Canada supply chains.

The critical route is called Highway 4 on the Canadian side.

“Alberta RCMP ask motorists to continue to stay away from Hwy 4 south of #Lethbridge to the #Coutts border crossing,” the Royal Canadian Mounted Police in Alberta tweeted late Sunday.

“Traffic continues to remain immobilized in both the NB and SB directions. At this time, no motor vehicles are able to access the border for entry/re-entry,” the agency said.
