Head Of The Lancet's COVID-19 Investigation Is 'convinced' it came out of a lab
[Summit Via ZERO] Sachs notes that scientists who dismissed the lab leak theory did so "before they had done any research at all," adding "they’re creating a narrative. And they’re denying the alternative hypothesis without looking closely at it."

Sachs points to the ’gain of function’ research and the genetic markers found in the SARS-Cov-2 coronavirus that indicate it was manipulated to be more deadly.

"What’s interesting, and concerning if I may say so, is that the research that was underway very actively and being promoted, was to insert furin cleavage sites into SARS-like viruses to see what would happen. Oops!" Sachs states.

"They’re not looking," Sachs says of scientists who dismiss the lab leak, adding "They just keep telling us, ’Look at the market, look at the market, look at the market!’ But they don’t address this alternative. They don’t even look at the data. They don’t even ask questions. And the truth is from the beginning, they haven’t asked the real questions."

Sachs further labels the efforts to distract from the lab research as "misdirection" and "sleight of hand".

"There is a huge amount of reason to believe that that research was underway. Because there are published papers on this. There are interviews on this. There are research proposals. But NIH isn’t talking. It’s not asking. And these scientists have never asked either," Sachs further asserts.

He continues, "From the very first day, they have kept hidden from view the alternative. And when they discuss the alternative, they don’t discuss the research program. They discuss complete straw men about the lab, not the actual kind of research that was underway, which was to stick furin cleavage sites into SARS-like viruses in a way that could have created SARS-Cov-2."

"What I’m calling for is not the conclusion. I’m calling for the investigation," Sachs urges, adding "Finally, after two and a half years of this, it’s time to fess up that it might have come out of a lab and here’s the data that we need to know to find out whether it did."

China-Japan-Koreas
Federal government can't seem to get out of bed with China
[American Thinker] When it comes to the theft of intellectual property, some argue that the U.S. is its own worst enemy. Rather than being an unwitting casualty, the U.S. either squanders or surrenders its technical advantages.

In a recent example, as reported by NPR, ten years ago, American scientists in Washington state made tremendous advancements in the field of vanadium batteries:
The batteries were about the size of a refrigerator, held enough energy to power a house, and could be used for decades. The engineers pictured people plunking them down next to their air conditioners, attaching solar panels to them, and everyone living happily ever after off the grid.
(One scientist described the technology as "beyond promise".)

But then, the U.S. Department of Energy gave the taxpayer—funded technology to the Chinese government.

But that wasn’t an anomaly, as this seems to be the modus operandi of the federal government. In 1998, the giveaway of rocket launch/development technology to China sparked an investigation, one that was undermined by President Clinton’s subsequent actions — the move dwarfed any "aid and comfort" provided to foreign enemies since Benedict Arnold.

Under the guise of helping to improve worldwide satellite communications, Bill Clinton provided China with technological secrets with a program known as the Iridium Satellite Constellation Project. It solved problems which prevented their rockets from reaching orbit, strengthening their ballistics capabilities.

In 1999, when there were still some investigative journalists at The New York Times, Jeff Gerth and his staff, won a Pulitzer Prize for his series of articles describing the technology "giveaway" that saved China more than twenty years of wasted time and money, and guaranteed they’d (probably) be America’s best friend forever.

The political alchemists of the Clinton era thought they could enlighten lagging Chinese rocket scientists, and turn them from humanitarian lead into gold. Similarly, today’s generation of elected conjurers believe that magically spending billions on inflation (and climate change) will, despite the warnings from 230 economists, miracuously reduce inflation and, except for those pesky volcanoes, prevent the next Ice Age or global warming.

Take some time and read the "sources" quoted by Mr. Gerth to see if you recognize any of the politicians, companies and "thought leaders" who gave their bobble—head approval to this "shared" technology:

Economy
Death of rural pharmacies across US leaves millions without a place to get medicine
[Washington Examiner] Millions of people in America are receiving healthcare that rivals Third World standards. Vast regions of the country have seen medical services evaporate over the past decade. Hospitals have closed, doctors have left, and pharmacies have been forced into bankruptcy. In this series, Dried Up: America's Medical Deserts, the Washington Examiner will investigate what happened to these now-barren terrains. Without adequate access to a hospital, a primary care center, an OB-GYN, or other specialized medical services, the health of an estimated 30 million people is put in jeopardy.

When Julie Perkins bought Batson's Drug Store in 1995, business was booming.

"Back then, pharmacy was an easy way to make money," she told the Washington Examiner. "It was easy to stay in business. I didn't have to stay awake at night figuring out how I was going to make payroll each week. It was easy before there were pharmacy benefit managers in the middle. You could make a decent living."

Now, it's not so easy.

Batson's is the last pharmacy standing in Elk County, Kansas, a rural area with a population hovering around the 2,500 mark. The county has no hospital and only a couple of primary care doctors. Most of Perkins's customers are retired or nearing it and rely on Medicare. The nearest big-chain pharmacies, Walmart and Walgreens, are 45 miles away.

Government Corruption
History Repeats Itself: Democrats Are Using Tactics of the Marxists of 1917 in Russia – Their Final Assault on America Begins… Tonight
[Gateway] And here is how it happened...

Here is a basic reminder of your 9th Grade American Civics materials...The Founding Fathers of our Republic designed a system of governing to prevent the evils inherent in the onerous governing systems of Europe. The Republic was to be governed in a way that the majority would have a say BUT safeguarded against a rogue majority controlling the nation. A deliberate system of "checks and balances" was wisely incorporated against evil efforts to seize national control.

The ultimate safeguard was the separation of the State’s governing into three distinct bodies. While each would have an impact upon the others, that impact was deliberately limited. The Executive, Legislative and Judicial branches of the Republic were designed to be independent but function with unity to guide the nation, preserve freedoms, and guard the human rights that are often disenfranchised by evil systems and philosophies. One of the greatest feats of our Republic is the exercise of individualism when these three branches of governing are properly functioning.

However, at this point in our nation’s historical narrative the "perfect storm" threatens ALL THREE of these safeguards of our Republic. And my disconcerting observation is that many prance and dance around with a Pollyannish attitude denying the reality of our current situation. The prevailing cultural concern is as absurd as the attitude of one busily rearranging the deck chairs on the sinking Titanic!

The assault on the EXECUTIVE BRANCH

The resistance has been hard at work even prior to President Trump’s inauguration. Attempts to nullify the electoral process have been constant. The evil agenda was visible. Our President has suffered evil resistance of historic proportions. The basic cause is his commitment to the U.S. Constitution. It is the unchanging Constitution that provides the legal governing making the USA an exceptional nation of individuals. This fixed and knowable Constitution gives our nation the strength and energy envied by the world and loathed by tyranny. )The Resistance/DEMS/BLM/ANTIFA demand an activist Court that will change our Republic’s basic foundational principles.)

#2  In the final clean-up of this, we need to return to the idea of the sole executive. When Trump was president, he was in power and the rest of the flunkies were not. Miley, the FBI , the State Department, the EPA and all the other minions derive authority because the president lends it to them. We will have to reboot this to get it right, ideally with many less flunkies.

FBI's raid on Mar-a-Lago puts U.S. on precipice
[American Thinker] The Biden FBI’s needless and over-the-top raid on former President Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home is the latest act in history’s longest coup. It is part of a real insurrection, an insurrection that both swept an established, duly elected (and successful) government out of power and then attempted to intimidate, "cancel," and terrorize that government’s supporters. It was -- and is -- an insurrection against the American people and American values.

If it ultimately proves successful, it is the end of the republic.

The same FBI and DoJ that have been trying to get Trump since the day he took office, even signing off on fake documents/dossiers, has now crossed the Rubicon and taken an enormous risk. Logically, one would assume they wouldn’t have done so unless they knew the outcome. Would they plant material in Mar-a-Lago? Finally successfully frame him? Sentient observers must now believe that this administration -- as evidenced by its FBI -- would do anything to keep Trump from running for president again in 2024. Anything.

Tragically, the Obama-Biden administration was successful at "fundamentally transforming" America’s intelligence and law-enforcement agencies, weaponizing them and siccing them on anyone who could stand in the way of their pathological need to retain and enhance their power, i.e. American citizens like President Trump and his supporters.

Last year, the Obama-Biden FBI raided U.S. Private Vaults, a private Beverly Hills-based safe deposit box storage business, in order to seize safe deposit boxes and assets belonging to hundreds of people who were not even suspected of having committed any crimes. The motivations and intentions behind the raid are being kept confidential at the request of federal prosecutors. And most of us are aware of the persecution of innocent Americans who were exercising their right to protest in the vicinity of the Capitol on January 6th, some of whom are still imprisoned, uncharged, awaiting trial. If Democrats have their way, and they almost always do, the Jan. 6 show trials will go on until the November election -- or possibly until the sun expires.

The mainstream media has lately been touting Biden’s "wins." But Biden’s wins are not like Trump’s wins. Biden’s wins, if one can call them that, benefit wealthy, elite, authoritarian, leftist idealogues. Democrats are using tactics favored by Marxists in 1917 Russia and by fascists in Germany circa 1934. (The Biden administration recently announced that there will soon be 87,000 more IRS agents on the job. Apparently the 87,000 existing agents were not enough to properly target conservative taxpayers and other entities. All hail the new American Gestapo!) By contrast, Trump’s wins benefitted average American citizens, the middle class, hardworking types in "flyover country."

America is closer than it has ever been to becoming a one-party state, an economy-sized banana republic.

Trump Attorneys Spill the Beans on Issues With FBI Raid, Warrant
BLUF:
[Red State] Habba said the agents came in wearing backpacks, and she was concerned that they could have planted things since they were trying to get the attorneys out of there. Habba said she believed this was all part of the effort to try to take Trump down, and that people were "working in tandem" with other efforts.

Emphasis added.

Having done a few Technical Counter Surveillance Sweeps.
The only safe route would be to do a few 100% sweeps AFTER gutting the house of all Electricals and even trashing Wall Switches, down to Light bulbs...

Then frisk and search all persons entering for any e-devices, and again on leaving the place.

Remember to keep mind a Rip Van Wrinkle scenario, of timed to or remotely activated days, weeks later E-devices.

Ex-CIA official downplays classified records at Mar-a-Lago: 'I had them in my house'
[Washington Examiner] Former CIA official Philip Mudd downplayed FBI agents finding classified documents in former President Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida during a raid on Monday.

It’s common for government officials to bring classified documents home with them accidentally because files are often "overclassified," Mudd, a former deputy director of the National Counterterrorism Center and the FBI’s National Security Branch, said during a CNN appearance on Tuesday. Therefore, the process of obtaining a search warrant for the residence of a former president would require much more than just seeking classified documents, he added.

"The chance the attorney general and the FBI director went in and said, ’Hey, he’s got some secret document down there he hasn’t given us, and to ensure we recover those, we’re just going to go to Mar-a-Lago,' I would put that near zero," Mudd explained. "To get to the bar where you’re going to the residence of the former president, classified documents don’t get you there. I had them in my house sometimes, inappropriately. It happens all the time. There has to be the additional piece ... and they have to do with stuff that the FBI can’t get someplace else."

Earlier this year, the National Archives retrieved about 15 boxes' worth of material it contends were presidential records that it said should have been given to the agency. Upon review of the records, the agency discovered classified material and referred the matter to the Department of Justice, according to a letter David Ferriero, the archivist of the United States at the time, sent to Congress back in February. The DOJ subsequently opened a grand jury inquiry into the matter, the New York Times reported.

Federal agents took approximately 10 more boxes out of Mar-a-Lago on Monday, according to the Wall Street Journal, which said this marked an escalation of the investigation into how classified documents ended up at the resort after Trump left office.

#4  The NARA Classified Document Warrant, is a pretextual cover for a fishing expedition and possible surveillance planting endeavor. Consider the NSA warning to Trump during the 2016 campaign that promptly led to his vacating the NYC apartment for all campaign activities. It was undoubtedly the FBI who planted those systems using a classified TS/SCI FISA warrant. The same FBI that had a DoJ staff attorney plead guilty for illegally obtaining FISA court approvals. Does anyone think they haven't gotten another FISA warrant under AG Garland?

Biden Climate Bill Will Lead To Americans Spending More On Healthcare, Not Less, Report Finds
[Daily Caller] Democrats’ signature drug pricing legislation would actually increase Americans’ healthcare costs, according to a new report from the University of Chicago.

Professor Tomas J. Philipson of the university’s Becker Friedman Institute for Economics found that total healthcare spending would increase by more than $50 billion over a period of 20 years if Democrats’ drug pricing proposals become reality. This is because the overwhelming majority of healthcare costs are related to labor, not drug prices, and because of innovation driving costs down in the long term, Philipson wrote.

"The primary source of spending in health care is on labor, such as doctors, nurses or assistants, which makes up over 70% of overall spending, similar to other US industries," the report states. "We find that during the last 20 years, profits and sales by research-based pharmaceutical companies made up 1.0% and 7.5% of total health care spending, respectively. In addition, annual sales growth contributed -4.5% to the annual growth in total health care spending, partly due to real declines in drug spending in some years when there were increases in real health care spending."

There is an average cost offset for medical innovation of $151.94 per new drug, Philipson wrote. Opponents of price controls on drugs have argued that capping pharmaceutical companies’ revenue from drug sales will kneecap future research and development efforts.
