HHS Deputy admits Fauci’s NIH funded gain-of-function research in Wuhan but says it was “an unexpected result.” If the experiment combines unknown viruses and tests their ability to infect and damage humanized cells, of course the result is ‘unknown' before the experiment. — Senator Rand Paul (@RandPaul) October 21, 2021
HHS Deputy admits Fauci’s NIH funded gain-of-function research in Wuhan but says it was “an unexpected result.” If the experiment combines unknown viruses and tests their ability to infect and damage humanized cells, of course the result is ‘unknown' before the experiment.
Yahoo News reports, “A top NIH official admitted in a Wednesday letter that U.S. taxpayers funded gain-of-function research on bat coronaviruses in Wuhan and revealed that EcoHealth Alliance, the U.S. non-profit that funneled NIH money to the Wuhan Institute of Virology, was not transparent about the work it was doing.

In the letter to Representative James Comer (R., Ky.), Lawrence A. Tabak of the NIH cites a 'limited experiment' that was conducted to test if 'spike proteins from naturally occurring bat coronaviruses circulating in China were capable of binding to the human ACE2 receptor in a mouse model.' The laboratory mice infected with the modified bat virus 'became sicker' than those infected with the unmodified bat virus.
The revelation vindicates Republican senator Rand Paul, who got into heated exchanges with National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease director Anthony Fauci during his May and July testimonials before Congress over the gain-of-function question. At the second hearing, Paul accused Fauci of misleading Congress by denying that the U.S. had funded gain-of-function projects at the Wuhan Institute of Virology.”

CNBC reports, “(Paul) Jones said the trillions of dollars in fiscal and monetary stimulus is the impetus for inflation to run hotter for longer. To rescue the economy from the Covid-19 pandemic, the Federal Reserve has added more than $4 trillion to its balance sheet through its open-ended quantitative easing program, while the U.S. government has unleashed over $5 trillion in fiscal stimulus.

‘Inflation can be much worse than what we fear. We have the demand side of the equation ... and that is $3.5 trillion greater than what it normally would have ... just sitting in liquid deposits,’ Jones said. ‘They can go into stocks, or crypto, or real state, or be consumed, so that’s a huge amount of dry powder just sitting waiting to be utilized at some point, which is why inflation is not going away.”

The Washington Examiner reports, “Popular conservative radio host Dan Bongino vowed to quit if the company that produces his show enforces its COVID-19 vaccine mandate.
The former NYPD officer and Secret Service agent-turned bestselling author, podcaster, and radio and television host issued the ultimatum on the air Monday.

‘You can have me, or you can have a vaccine mandate, but you can't have both,’ he told Cumulus Media on his radio show Monday.
Bongino is vaccinated but said he was standing up against the company's ‘political decision’ so that people without platforms could make a ‘private and personal medical decision.”

YouTube’s counsel sent an email to Crowder’s attorney, William Richmond, informing him of the strike against Crowder’s account and explaining that a September 30 video uploaded to Crowder’s channel 'targets the transgender community in an offensive manner,' according to a copy of the email. YouTube has blocked Crowder from posting videos to his main and auxiliary accounts for one week."

EFF: "We do not lose our constitutional rights at the border. The U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS), however, believes you do. In fiscal year 2019 alone (before the pandemic curbed international travel), U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) officers conducted nearly 41,000 electronic device searches without seeking a warrant supported by probable cause of wrongdoing from a judge. Unfettered border searches of electronic devices pose a significant threat to personal privacy. That’s why we urge Congress to pass the Protecting Data at the Border Act, a bill recently re-introduced by Sen. Ron Wyden (D-OR) and Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) that would create a warrant requirement for these types of searches, thereby protecting our constitutional rights at the border."

Right now, Congress is trying to push a $3.5 trillion spending bill. It doesn’t occur to most in Washington that with a nearly $30 trillion national debt, we can’t afford this. They would spend more if they could and no doubt plan to.
This has to end. The disaster it will create is something no one in this country of any party or ideology will want to see.
Politicians have to learn: Money has to come from somewhere. Either we borrow it, we tax people for it, or we simply print the money. Borrowing it obviously puts us further in debt. It puts us further in China’s debt. With taxing, Americans endure enough government theft already.
Printing money out of thin air has consequences. When the Federal Reserve prints the money, we increase the money supply which makes the current dollar worth less and less. Our money loses its purchasing power.
Right now we’re facing five percent inflation. People are feeling it. They see prices going up on so many things. At the gas station. At the grocery store. It’s happening everywhere.
That’s why inflation is a regressive tax. When the working class and those with lower incomes have to pay more for goods and services, that cost falls on them. The prices are also increasing in large part because of the massive borrowing both parties instituted in the last year using the pandemic as their excuse. Politicians thought the best policy would be massive nationwide shutdowns that wrecked the economy and to also give away free money we can’t afford.
We all know how that worked out.
In 2020, our national debt stood at nearly 130 percent of our Gross Domestic Product. In 2019, it was 108 percent. This is how rapid federal spending is right now. In 2021, we are getting even closer to owing about a time-and-a-half of what the entire United States produces in a year.
This is about where Greece was financially when that country declared bankruptcy and was unable to pay its bills. It is foolish to believe there will be no consequences. We are already seeing the consequence of inflation. How many more do we have to see before we reverse course?
Because it could become much worse if spending continues at current levels. Right now, the federal government is accumulating $2 million in new debt per minute. That is absolute insanity. If you took Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security, food stamps, other welfare, military and other annual spending combined, we were already $1 trillion short every year to cover those costs. That was before we added another $2 trillion last year. Now everyone wants to add a few trillion more.
This country has never borrowed that much.
It is true that because the American dollar is a global currency, the U.S. has probably been shielded from some of the drastic or immediate consequences that befell Greece. But there are also immutable rules of economics that will eventually catch up to us. We inch closer to that line, every day.
No one can predict what or when something terrible might happen. The consequences of our spending addiction could happen gradually. It could also be sudden and drastic. If you look at the history of the U.S. market, we have had black swan events where over a week’s time most of the losses happen calamitously.
I don’t want calamity for our country. I want to change what we’re doing before we get that far.
But make no mistake: we are currently spending America into oblivion. We should stop.
Brownstone Institute: “From the beginning of the March 2020 lockdowns for the SARS-CoV-2 virus, the subject of natural immunity (also called post-infection immunity) has been neglected. Once the vaccination became widely available, what began with near silence at the beginning turned nearly into a complete blackout of the topic.

30 Peer reviewed journal articles confirming natural immunity after Covid infection. Will Fauci now finally apologize to the 100 million or more Americans who’ve had COVID?
Even now, there is an absence of open discussion, presumably in the interests of promoting universal vaccination and required documentation of such vaccination as a condition of participating in public life and even the jobs marketplace. Still, the science exists. Many studies exist. Their authors deserve credit, recognition, and to have their voices heard.
These studies demonstrate what was and is already known: natural immunity for a SARS-type virus is robust, long-lasting, and broadly effective even in the case of mutations, generally more so than vaccines.”
Red State: Domenech asked Paul if people should worry about appearing on government lists if they say the wrong thing, and Paul reminded acknowledged that lists like these already exist and that it would be right to fear the government in this regard.
“That’s a sad thing from someone in the government to say, but the thing is, is those lists already exist. For example, people in northern Virginia that have gone to [protests], have been then sought out by the school council, by the members of the school board and retaliated [against] in a sort of legalistic way to try to put them on some sort of list and chill their speech by letting them know there’ll be a penalty for showing up and protesting,' Paul said…
'If you go to a school board meeting and you’re disruptive and you don’t obey the rules of the school board meeting, then there will be local punishment,' Paul said. 'But that has nothing to do with the federal law, it has nothing to do with the Department of Justice. What Merrick Garland did is, he’s attempting to stifle dissent, and he’s attempting to say, ‘Beware or Big Brother’s coming after you if you speak out against my policies or against the Biden policies."

Fox News reports, “Florida mom Quisha King called for a ‘mass exodus’ from the public school system, arguing that school systems left parents with no other choice for fighting left-wing ideas.
Her comments came during the annual Family Research Council's Pray Vote Stand Summit during a Thursday panel on ‘Fighting Indoctrination on a National Scale.’
‘I really think at this point the only thing to do is have a mass exodus from the public school system – that's it,’ King said. In response, she received prolonged applause, and many in the audience stood to their feet at the Leesburg, Virginia, event.
‘With this FBI thing, it just made me realize – what else are we supposed to do?’ King asked. ‘Standing up to these people doesn't seem to matter. I mean, we have – all of us – we've been at these school board meetings, we've been voicing our opinions, we're writing articles, we're emailing teachers – we're doing all that stuff. And they don't care. I'm like the only thing left to do is to just peace out.’
She added that ‘it has to be us doing it together’ in order to ‘really send the message that you do not have the right to indoctrinate our children."
