On July 8, 2022, Tucker Carlson laid out an extensive indictment against the Chinese Communist Party, Joe Biden, the media, and the medical establishment regarding COVID. For me, there have always been nagging and inescapable questions about the pandemic. In my mind, the timing was always just too convenient. Tucker’s monologue re-ignited my curiosity and the questions have arisen once more. Maybe it’s just me, but…

In late January 2020, the first COVID-19 case was diagnosed in the United States. At that time, America was strong, even on the rise. There was energy independence and, before the pandemic-induced shutdowns, supply chains were working as they should, gas prices were reasonable, the workforce participation was at all-time highs, and every American who wanted to work could work. Every racial, ethnic, and cultural demographic was benefitting from the strong economy, and wages and salaries were increasing.

Yet behind the scenes, almost certainly in violation of federal law, U.S. taxpayers were funding virus research in China, including a particularly dangerous type of research—“gain of function,” meaning the researchers take a naturally occurring virus from the animal kingdom and “jack it up” genetically, to make it infectious to humans. A “novel” virus.

Presumably, this GOF research would make our virologists, epidemiologists, immunologists, and the broader medical establishment better equipped to handle the next epidemic. Presumably, this GOF research was all for the sake of prevention. If the theoretical goal was to increase our knowledge of viruses so medicines could be developed, and lives could be saved, how utterly ironic that, now, over 6 million lives have been lost worldwide.

This GOF research was taking place in China because it is too d@#n dangerous to permit it here in the United States. Therefore, the people who perpetrated the necessary funding sleight-of-hand laundered the money through a U.S. non-profit and sent this research offshore to China.

Holy cr@p! Did anyone consider the hazards of sending this to China? Who ran the numbers on the risk management and considered the severity of what could go wrong? Not only does China have a terrible record when it comes to containing viruses, it’s have been our geopolitical adversary for at least the past 30 years.

Meanwhile, the Never-Trumpers and the Democrat Socialist Party were in a major dilemma—how were they to survive the 2020 election? With such widespread prosperity, with Trump having survived their impeachment attempt, and with the world’s bad actors pretty much contained, Trump and the down-ballot Republicans who had supported him had a record to run on.

With the “novel coronavirus” being diagnosed across America, we soon discovered the medical bureaucracy had little to offer. The medical protocols in effect were of little effect at all—those who tested positive were told to stay at home until there was no choice but hospitalization. Once admitted, few survived their hospital stay.

We learned the meaning of the medical term “off-label use”: because there were no drugs for the “novel coronavirus,” many physicians were using other medicines to some benefit, drugs such as hydroxychloroquine and, later, Ivermectin. We also learned that America’s and the world’s most prominent pharmaceutical companies were beginning to test for a COVID-19 vaccine. If there were widespread acceptance and use of the off-label medications, that would negate the need for these new vaccines and, given the many millions of dollars big pharma had invested in these vaccines, this was not a tenable position for them.

Hence, the alphabet soup of government medical agencies enforced a top-down, one-size-fits-all, “don’t take that poison!!!” approach. The fearmongering in nearly every nook and cranny of the media proclaimed the message that we can’t do this on our own; instead, we must listen to the “experts” and “follow the science!”
