WAS COVID CAUSED BY A LAB LEAK AFTER ALL---BOMBSHELL GOVERNMENT REPORT SAYS NIH FAILED TO KEEP TABS ON WUHAN

Was Covid caused by a lab leak after all? Bombshell Government report says NIH failed to keep tabs on Wuhan research site where US taxpayer-funded grants were used for coronavirus experiments years before pandemicBombshell report: Was Covid caused by a lab leak after all?

Despite [EcoHealth] possibly having caused the COVID-19 pandemic, and despite definitely having repeatedly and gravely violated terms of a US-government grant, currently has 12 active US-government grants and contracts, totaling more than $34 million.'

Justin Goodman, from the White Coat Waste Project group, said: 'This audit confirms what we have been documenting since early 2020 when we first exposed NIH’s funding of the Wuhan lab: EcoHealth Alliance shipped tax dollars to Wuhan for dangerous animal experiments that probably caused the pandemic, violated federal laws and policies and wasted tax dollars.

'Yet, the Wuhan lab remains eligible for even more taxpayer money for animal tests and just since the pandemic began, EcoHealth has raked in at least $46million in new federal funds from the DOD, USAID, NIH, and NSF.  MORE AT

A DECLARATION AGAINST WOKENESS

A Declaration Against Wokeness
By Quin Hillyer, Commentary Writer
January 24, 2023 04:33 PM

Just for the record, against the woke inversion and perversion of reality, here are things I don’t just believe but insist to be true or wise, or both. So sue me.

Gender and sex (the state of being, not the act) are the same thing. Except in the case of vanishingly rare chromosomal abnormalities, sex is determined at birth by simple anatomical observation.

The act of sex, along with any ceremony and customs related to it, such as a wedding, is essentially a private matter as long as choices are free, public health isn’t menaced, and minors aren’t involved. The state has no business forcing any third party to participate in or endorse any activity pertaining thereto. Sex acts in public are a different matter, and may reasonably be regulated by the state.

Skin color and ethnicity have nothing to do with character. Skin color and ethnicity have nothing to do with inherent guilt. They also have nothing to do with inherent predilections toward economic systems or codes of behavior or values or work ethic. Public laws should make no distinctions, none at all, based on race. Public policy should be colorblind. Colorblindness is not racism, and indeed is the very definition of non-racism. Racism is attitudinal, not a matter of “power relations.” There is no such thing as “whiteness” in terms of character or personality, although house-paint colors can be said, roughly speaking, to show various shades of whiteness. We are not collectively or individually responsible for the sins or accomplishments of our ancestors. We are not collectively or individually meritorious because of the sufferings of our ancestors.   Read more at
