President Trump lead another Coronavirus task force briefing from the White House on Monday evening.
The President was joined by Vice President Mike Pence, US Attorney General Bill Barr and others.
Trump signed a second executive order to providing authority to address hoarding and price gouging that threatens the supply of medical supplies.
Attorney General Bill Barr put hoarders on notice and said they will get a knock on the door if they are sitting on a large amount of supplies.
We have started to see some evidence of potential hoarding and price gouging, said Barr. So, earlier today the president signed a second executive order providing the authority to address hoarding that threatens the supply of those necessary health and medical resources.
If you have a big supply of toilet paper in your house, this is not something you have to worry about. But if you are sitting on a warehouse with masks, surgical masks, you will be hearing a knock on your door, Barr said.

Im glad you found some sort of justice.
hmm, suppose a significant number of large actors purchased mass quantities in say January-february. Like SEIU size. Wouldn't that cause a disruption in availability? I have a hypotheses these shortages of various articles don't add up.
Plus why did LA county and NYS decide to stop reporting testing stats? Why was the CDC response so confused early on?
Unfortunately I'm a paranoid hypochondriac by nature and so I really have to validate these notions quantitatively before I feel comfortable raving about it but things just don't seem quite right.
Maybe what's happening here is some kind of "cool war" where some nation state is manipulating various organizations to take actions which add up to disruption. Certainly the news media constructing narratives from Chinese and Russian propaganda would be a symptom of that. OTOH it could be organizational febrility. But there are a number of nation-state scale actors who have organized international disruptions in the last few decades, e.g. Soros, various Chinese and ChiCom agencies, even the CIA/NSA.
Because the outbreak was planned and they were warned. What other reason, charity?
“Because the outbreak was planned and they were warned.”
I considered that, but it makes no sense. The outbreak is not even close to how extreme they told us it would be. They knew it was a planned hoax — the panic, not the flu. They knew it would be not very bad. Why would they willingly spend extra money on many millions of units they knew wouldn’t be necessary?
AKA: The Purple People Beaters.
Likely a large component of the AntiFA thugs.
Sure would help if they arrested and handcuffed people doing stuff like this, put on the news.
Thank God here for anti hoarding laws, imagine what the grocers might have done to us otherwise?
Well, that's what they are.
