Jon, we spent the morning at cosco, police had to set up barricade because the area was overrun with shoppers. We went up the street to local grocery chain, we are at steward leonards, plenty of inventory and in large because where they get supply from. The meat comes from connecticut, same with dairy, this is helping stores really rely on being able to replenish supplies because they know that any shortage in labor is not going to affect drivers, delivery drivers from making deliveries and replenish their stock, thats not the case at wholesale and bigbox stores. A little more anxiety. You went to Big Box Store over the weekend you encountered pan bottled water is being cleaned out, now chicken, ground beef, Food Industry leaders say their supply chain is healthy but indicators of furtherreaching shortages. On amazon toilet paper is sold out and deliveries are indefinitely and some stores enacting a twoitem limit on products that are in high demand and concern that they can create labor shortages.

Led to Police Closure at the parking lot entrance. Local authorities had to restrict access for a period of 2 hours to allow the place to clear out because it was so overrun. If youre looking to stock up and concerned that you might need to stay at home for a couple of weeks, go ahead and go to your local stores, youll probably run into a lot more supply there.

I did read one article but i dont think that article was represented, certainly not in my conversations with president xi, they know where it came from, we all know where it came from. John the u. S. Army supposedly brought coronavirus to wuhan, china, this as the worlds second economy grows to recover and our next guest asia analyst gordon chang. Ironic that the chinese are pointing fingers at the United States when all the evidence suggest that is the coronavirus originated there.

I dont know what President Trump is thinking but probably if i had to guess i would say that President Trump is basically doing what every other world leader will to which is to try to sort of slide over some difficult circumstances with the chinese. President trump doesnt want to cause a panic in the u. S. So i understand what hes doing and this is in line with u. S. Foreign policy in the last four decades but i seriously doubt that our president has been taken in by xi jinping. John one one of the issues thas come to the floor, chinese manufacturing of pharmaceuticals that are consumed in the u. S. , given the patients in this country, josh howley, the senator of missouri says its time to rethink the negotiation. I want to get your take on that after this.
