1. U.S. Taxpayer Money Did Go to Controversial ‘Gain of Function’ Research

Thanks to some confusing verbal gymnastics by Dr. Anthony Fauci, some in the media are giving the impression that there’s no proof U.S. tax money funded “gain of function” research or that, perhaps, the research didn’t qualify as gain of function. However, the evidence on this point is clear cut.

A 2015 published study specifically discloses that the research is gain of function research that took bat coronavirus that was harmless to people—and made it infectious in humans. The study further states that the National Institutes of Health (NIH) approved continuation of the research even amid a general ban on such studies.

So basically our government used our money and joined forces with China to create a deadly virus in order to kill us. This is beyond treason!

USAID PREDICT project provided the most funding.

The ministry of truth tried to vilify the Trump administration for ending the funding.

Gain of Function was started in US,then outlawed. Which is too bad since keeping things safe is far more possible here than most other places.
When it was outlawed Fauci sent money to China — cause he wanted to pursue that tech. Good or bad, dunno. But, he, Fauci, was the one who signed off on sending such monies to China for tech that was outlawed here. He granted himself an exception to the US rule. To my mind this fits into the same category of flying to a place like Singapore in order to access children.

PRINT THIS UP AND GET THIS OUT THERE BECAUSE NOBODY KNOWS THIS
These recent attacks on US IS an attempt to protect the CCP for doing this and have US get blamed

THAT BIDEN WIN IS AN AWARD TO CHINA FOR INVADING US USING COVID 19

The CCP Effort praised by this CCP scientist working on doing so

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3960570/posts

Here’s that compliment paid to the CCP by the Biden campaign for bringing in the virus which they admitted really helped fix it to get Biden elected http://freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3940857/posts

Every time an American looked at an item for where it was made in it came from China. Now China’s reliance making everything was being threatened by a change in leadership in America which was a major consumer of those products. When Americans hailed their leaders decision to make many of them in their country US. Their politburo worried.

THIS WAS GOING ON WHILE CCP SCIENTISTS WERE WORKING ON COVID

Worse yet opponents to the Chinese regime in power had its citizens protesting its policies , as in Hong Kong, since that change in American leadership, wave the American flag and present Trump’s name when doing so.

All of which presented those in power the need to destroy that leader Donald Trump. In totalitarian political circles this strategy has been reported to be frequently considered Would a runaway plague created by a nation which could threaten populations of an enemy cause them to react by demanding extreme restriction of movement by its population to prevent its spread ? Thus wind up fragmenting its economy and create defeat for that leader’s upcoming election.When they released it that was the CCP intention but it got away from them and went world wide and they should be made to pay

“Gain-of-function” is the euphemism for biological research aimed at increasing the virulence and lethality of pathogens and viruses. . GoF research can be used for biological warfare.

Rumors that Iraq was preparing to use weaponized anthrax – as a “weapon of mass destruction” – provided W. Bush with a justification for the 2003 invasion.

Fauci has played a major role in promoting and funding gain-of-function research, both in the US and China.

A number of years ago they expanded the ‘word salad’ with a new distinction:

GOF (gain of function)
&
GOFOC (gain of function of concern)

I’ve commented on this prior. If I find the urls, they will be below.

The Obama administration paused SOME (but not all) Gain of Function investigations on October 17, 2014. They rescinded this pause on January 9, 2017, just a few days after the infamous meeting at the White House with Obama, Biden, Susan Rice, Comey, etc. and 11 days before Trump took office.

This removal of the pause must be why no one can find the person in the Trump administration who authorized a restart of Gain of Function research. It happened during the outgoing Obama administration! The evil of that administration knows no bounds.

Read the full story, including original documents, on today’s Conservative Treehouse.
