| 2020-04-06 |
| [CNN] A Harvard University professor and two other Chinese nationals were federally indicted in three separate cases for allegedly lying to the US about their involvement with China's government, the US attorney for the district of Massachusetts announced Tuesday. Federal authorities told reporters the cases highlighted the "ongoing threat" posed by China using "nontraditional collectors" like academics and researchers to steal American research and technology. Dr. Charles Lieber, 60, who is the chair of Harvard's Chemistry and Chemical Biology Department, is accused of lying about working with several Chinese organizations, where he collected hundreds of thousands of dollars from Chinese entities, US Attorney Andrew Lelling said at a news conference. According to court documents, Lieber's research group at Harvard had received over $15 million in funding from the National Institutes of Health and the Department of Defense, which requires disclosing foreign financial conflicts of interests. The complaint alleges that Lieber had lied about his affiliation with the Wuhan University of Technology (WUT) in China and a contract he had with a Chinese talent recruitment plan to attract high-level scientists to the country. He was being paid $50,000 per month by the Chinese university and given $1.5 million to establish a nanoscience research lab at WUT, the complaint said.

| #2 The head of Harvard's biochemistry department, the NIH, our most politically-influential oligarch .... it's all sickening. Unbelievable, surreal, like a running nightmare. |

| #1 Bill "eugenics" Gates Foundation passed money to NIH. Of which NIH sponsored a grant. The grant was awarded to Lieber/Harvard. Lieber sponsored Zheng, a chinese communist party member on a student visa. CCP was caught smuggling classified bio material to China (which I believe will come out as coronaviri).
