NIH Director Confirms Agency Hid COVID Genes on Orders from the Chinese
American Greatness ^ | 12 May, 2022 | Eric Lendrum

On Wednesday, Lawrence Tabak, the acting director of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), confirmed during congressional testimony that officials at the NIH deliberately withheld crucial information about early genomic sequences of the COVID-19 virus on the orders of Chinese scientists.

As reported by the New York Post, Tabak told the House Appropriations subcommittee that the agency “eliminated from public view” all the data from the location of the virus’s origin, Wuhan, while adding that researchers can still access the information through a “tape drive.”

When asked by Rep. Jaime Herrera Beutler (R-Wash.) why the NIH would take orders from the Chinese, Tabek responded by admitting that “there’s no question that the communication that we had about the sequence archive — Sequence Read Archive — could have been improved. I freely admit that,”

“If I may, the archive never deleted the sequence, it just did not make it available for interrogation,” Tabek added.”

“So wait, you have the information still?” Beutler then asked.

“We have the information,” Tabek responded. “Anybody who submits to the Sequence Read Archive is allowed to ask for it to be removed. And that investigator did do that. But we never erase it.”

The congresswoman followed up with another question confirming that the information was never fully erased, but instead hidden from public view, which Tabek confirmed.

Vanity Fair initially reported that the information in question could have ultimately determined whether or not the virus was formed naturally, or if it originated from the Wuhan Institute of Virology (WIV); this debate remains highly contentious in the United States and around the world, although other evidence seems to point to the WIV as the more likely origin of the virus that has since spread across the globe.

I think that when more information starts coming out, we will find that Lord Fauci was much more involved in the virus development than previously known.

Made in a lab in order to destroy the economy of the world for a political reset to enable elites to seize control of local governments.

Fire every last one of them involved in the decision. They clearly work for China, not the United States taxpayers.

NIH offiicials gave more aid and comfort to the enemies of the United States. The Constitution has a word for that.

The treason clause of the US Constitution only applies to levying war on the US or the giving of aid and comfort to the enemies of the US by persons owing allegiance to the US, in actual time of war.

Treason is narrowly defined and confined to acts in wartime.

The Rosenbergs for example were executed for espionage, not treason.
The US was not at war with the Soviet Union.

skepsel: "Treason is narrowly defined and confined to acts in wartime."

Treason includes acts committed during wartime, but it's not limited to when the US is in a declared war. There have been people tried and convicted of treason for actions when the US was not at war. In fact, there are state constitutions that have treason clauses in them, and states cannot declare war.

Do you have a citation for persons convicted of treason against the US outside of war?

All the citations I see are confined to acts of war against the US or in support of an enemy state in time of war.

I believe treason against a state is outside the meaning of your original posting.

Let me remind you, we ARE at (economic) WAR with the WEF, World Bank, and the Globalist Cabal.

Pearl Harbor II was on Nov. 3-4, 2020. An act of war was committed by multiple foreign nations and international Corporations against the USA. Yes, they conspired with high officials in our government to destroy the USA and to bring us under the control of a Globalist Totalitarian Power.

Many public officials are guilty of conspiring for money to destroy the US Constitution and our nation.

The war is not over yet.

YES, WE are at War.

An individual, except the President, elected or appointed to an office of honor or profit in the civil service or uniformed services, shall take the following oath:

“I, { name }, do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter. So help me God.”

This section does not affect other oaths required by law. 5 USC 3331

Now, how many plotters against our nation are guilty of subverting our nation? 1/2 of DC? Possibly more.

Look at Wikipedia's list of people convicted of treason prior to the Civil War.

Furthermore, the treason clause in the constitutions of states (e.g., Texas), which cannot declare war, has the same wording for treason.

Again, the United States, or an individual state, can have enemies without being in a declared war against such enemies. A person can be charged with treason (1) for levying war against the United States or an individual state, or (2) for giving aid and comfort to the enemies of the United States or an individual state. Nothing in Art. III, Sect. 3 limits treason to actions done following a declaration of war by the United States.

Well you are certainly entitled to your opinion.

Off you go now.

"Off you go now."

Well, I am not going anywhere. My family has been in this county for over 130 years. I was the first blacksheep to move away. Was gone 25 years. Back since 1995. I may never leave Texas again in my life. And if these freaks think they can subject Texas, lots of Luck. I know my neighbors. They feel just like I do.

Sam Houston, Texas has yet to learn submission to any oppression, come from what source it may.
