The US Strategic Stockpiles?

[Newest Reality]

Ah, shouldn't we be rolling out our strategic stockpiles of medical gear, medications, etc. right now? We are SUPPOSED to have a large supply of what might be necessary in a health crises like this. What is in those stockpiles and their locations are kept secret because they are strategic, so we only find out when they are made available.

We have about eight days to get them ready and in place. I have heard nothing about that. What I hear is corporate America commercials. With the wealth of this country, we should have enough ready to mitigate the shortages we face, right? Or is that no longer a thing?

Has anyone seen any news about this, yet?

But we're sure gonna have us a damn fancy wall.

3. Trump axed the agency in charge.

Whatever stockpiles and resources they had was probably sold off as excess property in a govt auction for pennies on the dollar.
