Obama's NIH Sent $3.7M to Wuhan Lab
pjmedia.com ^ | APRIL 17, 2020

Back in 2015, when Barack Obama was president, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) sent a $3.7 million grant to the Wuhan Institute of Virology, a lab that grew coronaviruses and injected them into animals.

It is quite feasible that the novel coronavirus responsible for the COVID-19 global pandemic leaked from that lab, and U.S. Intelligence sources have been saying that the virus came from a Level-4 lab in Wuhan. During his coronavirus press conference on Friday, President Donald Trump pledged to stop the funding.

"Why would the U.S. give a grant like that to China?" a reporter asked.

"The Obama administration gave them a grant of $3.7 million, I've been hearing about that, and we've instructed that if any grant going to that area — we're looking at it, literally, about an hour ago — and also early in the morning, we will end that grant very quickly," Trump said. "But it was granted quite a while ago. They were granted quite a substantial amount of money."

He asked the reporter when the grant was given, and she said the NIH granted it in 2015.

"Who was president, then, I wonder?" Trump quipped.

Who, indeed?

“The argument is essentially a rerun of the debate over whether to allow lab research that increases the virulence, ease of spread or host range of dangerous pathogens — what is known as ‘gain-of-function’ research.

And the obvious question is why wound anyone fund “gain of function” research on a virus except as part of a bioweapons program. What other purpose would it serve to try to make a virus *more* deadly?

Should the woke folk throw a telethon for both the WHO and the Wuhan level 4 lab?

Always 10 steps ahead of conservative leaders. Why is that? There is another possibility... seems like conservative leadership and dems agree on massive bailouts for everyone but working class citizens.
I don’t mean workers who already receive subsidies for insurance, childcare, housing and even clothing. I mean honest middle class folk who pay dearly.
Unless conservative leadership is consistently unable to look ahead based on history and daily intel.

“...the Wuhan Institute of Virology, a lab that grew coronaviruses and injected them into animals.”

What KIND of animals? Ones that people later bought and ATE at the Wuhan Open Market?

And WHERE is PETA when it comes to the abuses of animals world-wide? Or is it just easier/more lucrative to whine about it when American scientists do it?

FWIW - I’m against animal testing but I know it’s a necessary evil. I’m also against abortion and the sale of human baby parts, but that’s still going on, I’m sure. :(

Boardwalk, and there are times when I wonder if Nancy delayed impeachment waiting for a Republican senator (in a Democrat governor state) to have an unfortunate accident.

Back in 2015, when Barack Obama was president, AND JOE BIDEN WAS VICE PRESIDENT, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) sent a $3.7 million grant to the Wuhan Institute of Virology, a lab that grew coronaviruses and injected them into animals.

And now you know, the rest of the story.

The BIGGER question is how much China sent back to Boobamba:

<><> donations to his foundation,

<><> donations to his final resting place in Chicago.....

<><> and so on and so forth.

REFERENCE the $63 mill Penguin book deal The Boob and his wife got----AFTER Boob
gave the publisher hundreds of millions of tax dollars as a "grant".....cue laugh machine here.

“...I see it more of a collaboration between China and those who hate Trump....”

It’s more than likely that both the CCP and the treasonous domestic communists colluded with the release. We need actual prove and NAMES. Their names need to be plastered from coast to coast. They need to tried for treason, mass murder, attempted mass murder, genocide, etc. and the summarily publicly hanged; no cigarette, no blindfold and with a super hard drop. Actually, hanging these evil SOBs is way too darn good for em. They should be turned over to the “unwashed masses” to be Mussolini-ized.

Never should have been sworn in.
Obama is not a natural born citizen.
Natural born citizen are NATURALLY citizens because they are born here of citizen parents and have only ONE nationality and could not be anything else.
It’s a deadly precedent to set and allow to stand.
Now any illegal alien anchor baby, Chinese tourist baby and Anwar Al-Awlaki’s kids, born in Yemen to one citizen parent, are eligible.
The founders specifically specified natural born citizen to exclude foreigners.
The children of foreigners ARE foreigners, even if born here they all inherit the nationality of their parent(s).

There is a reason why the president was continually calling the virus that Chinese virus.
