The Delta variant. The world is getting crazier. People are acting more and more insane. The end of the world is tomorrow.
Tomorrow. Tomorrow. Tomorrow. The is only one thing to do when the world is feeling hard.
Listen to Basil and go on to discuss this week's events through the lens of Bible prophecy. You are listening to the world you cry news to. You are listening to get a new song today is June 16th, 2021. This is episode 351 and today.
Inception deception. That's right. And razzle dazzle. I'm your best buddy Basil.
And this is gone. Your favorite Asian per rocket to her for Christ. Welcome to the podcast where we bring you the best news in the world, which is the gospel message of Jesus Christ. While reporting all the egregious things out there with a well-rounded, bit of a ground to take on world events.
And thank you to all the people catching us live here. And all of you listening later, the daughter did get a new car. Oh, you did it. Wow.
Good, good, good. And that is thanks to some help from some producers. Yes. We will think later on.
We will think those producers later and she's happy she has something to transport herself around. We can continue being a productive economic unit in this machine of ours. It's interesting though, because she's finally an adult. She's adulting now.
You know, age 20. This is like her first big purchase. Well, you know, the parents put the down down and she'll be handling it monthly. But it's, you know, you're an adult American now.
You're in debt. So that was a conversation. That's right. That is the most adult thing you can do is enslave yourselves to the banks.
Yeah. Well, good for her. Let's see, God's. Okay.
So last week, this is for those who might be near the show. This is just sort of the banter while we wait for everybody to tune in live. But here's the thing. It's important.
It's important. It's important. Some very good content here. Last episode.
You wanted to talk about sweet tooth so badly. You could not help yourself just spoiling the good spoil. I did not spoil anything. You spoiled something alive.
There's a very much spoiler. There are guns. How could I spoil something that I haven't even seen the whole season yet? I do not know if you know what spoil means.
I know what it means. It's. It's okay. It's okay.
There's nothing to defend yourself against. It did a little spoil. We all do it. It's a whoopsy daisies.
But here's the thing, folks. I finished sweet tooth as well. I knew I had to do it as fast as possible before gone spoiled anything else. And now it's time to team spoil.
So if you are watching, if you are watching sweet tooth and you don't want any spoilers, now would be the time if you're listening afterwards to skip ahead, maybe a minute or two. And if you are watching live, just kind of mute it. You know, we'll let you know in the chat or something when it's time to come back. But sweet tooth.
Another one of these shows that I just keeps happening. I don't know. It still affects me. Gons that in this case, the suits over and over in Warner Brothers, they just been listening to our show for 10 years and just finally decided it's time to make a show based pretty much primarily on Canary Cry content.
As I mentioned in the last show, when the script was written and everything, you know, casting and all that stuff, it had to have been 2019, which is before the pandemic. Maybe. Maybe. Maybe.
Maybe. Do you think so? You think after. Yes.
So let's let's let me let me introduce it this way. Take a long, long time to, you know, shows from beginning to end. It could take easy free to, you know, three to five years from conception and writing all the way to release. But something sped up and let's just say in this show, obviously, they take the easy route on sort of relatability by referring to a lot of things in the pandemic.
For those who might not know, sweet tooth is a show where there's a global pandemic. It's called the sick. It kills everybody. And at the same time, human animal hybrids began being born from human women all over the world.
They don't know why it happened. They don't know where the sick came from. But in this case, they take the opportunity, you know, they do a lot of illusions to what we all went through, a sort of cheap shot relatability when it comes to the pandemic. You know, there's big piles of toilet paper.
There's huge boxes of hand sanitizer randomly in the background. They had a little mask, anti mask, little mini debate in the, I think, is the last or the second to last episode where they made some very relevant commentary about anti maskers and mask people. Just a lot of these really easy gets when it comes to having people relate to your thing. And I have this conversation with somebody about, wow, if this was written before 2020, this is full on scyop scripted reality, saw it come and type of thing.
And it may very well have in the case. Yeah, I'm looking at it now. And it says that production actually began November 2018, but it was supposed to be on Hulu and then it moved over to Netflix. And it looks like the Netflix version was cast May 2020.
So okay, they had a little bit of. They had rewrite time. And if you remember with songbird, the COVID-19 movie about the end of the world and COVID and everything else that came out, what it was, like eight months into the pandemic. Something like that.
Yeah, that was entirely written, shot, edited, produced and put out dirt, you know, in a record timing. So in this case, yeah, I think, you know, they probably added all this stuff. They embellished some stuff. I don't know.
It would have to, you know, you got to look at some of the earlier scripts or whatever, but the great crumble, that's something that really I was like, really, the great credit, like the great reset. So, yeah. So yeah, I don't know. How do you want to do this?
You want to run that? You want me to do it? Yes, they definitely had clouds. Some things of note, I thought.
I mean, the big one, do we just want to jump into the big spoiler about where the animal children came from? Well, the main character Gus was a lab baby, basically. Yes, they were made in the same lab that create that to basically the virus came from. The virus sort of came from experiments in a lab and escaped the lab.
Imagine that. But in the same lab, they created these animal hybrids as sort of the, you know, I don't know, look, they left some cliffhangers for season two, but it's obvious that the human animal hybrids were created as a response to this virus as some sort of cure. Well, I think part of it was, and they kind of alluded to it with the mother character, I can't remember her name, but basically she was a scientist, a birdie. That's right.
She was a scientist. She was looking for, she was doing research to find cures for, and just to forget the natural occurring things for viruses in general. It goes to Alaska, digs up some stuff, finds some virus, and she talks about how it's like a coin. There's one side that can cause a global pandemic and the other side can cause miracles.
I think this is just my opinion. They don't say it, but I think she took her own genetics and mixed it with deer genetics or something. Sure. But it's basically, they were playing into the conversation about gain of function research.
Well, here later on, gain of function research, the big debate is, should we create super deadly viruses? Because we might be able to figure out something that helps humanity. The other hand is that it will destroy us all, as we've seen. So they have a little bit of gain of function research conversation in there.
And you know, oh, where's it going? There's one last bit. Oh, the thing where it came, the virus or whatever came from ice samples from Alaska. Remember, I mean, this was maybe 2016, 2017.
We actually reported on the found ancient viruses in, I think, Antarctic. Antargas. Yeah. Yeah.
So, okay. If you say so. It's just another full conglomeration of everything we've been talking about for 10 years. And I want my check gone.
I want my royalty check. Well, if you remember in 2013, there was a story out in BBC in the UK that they had created human animal hybrids and they were doing it past the point of ethical limits or whatever. Yeah. I remember that thing in like, wow, 2013, this is like, they're really reporting on it.
So, you know, this kind of thing, and this show, by the way, is executive produced by Robert Downey Jr. and Susan Downey. But, you know, I tend to think that this has to be at kind of a larger level, a conditioning process to make it real, because now in shows, 20, 30 years ago, you have a human animal hybrid. It's like, oh, it's a fun character.
Now, you have millions of people sitting on the edge of their couches, eating potato chips, you know, being conditioned to emotionally relate to a human deer hybrid and other hybrids. And knowing knowingly that it was created by science, that was kind of one of the big flip flops of the show was, oh, the earth is healing itself by creating animal hybrids. I thought that was an interesting kind of twist. Because there's a character in there that she had this whole anti or protect the hybrid kind of clan and their whole narrative is like a new age narrative that, yeah, like you said, the earth had created the highway itself to heal.
And that was all a roost. You know, it was just all a lie. I thought it was fascinating because that's kind of like exposing the whole climate change thing now, you know, where it's like all these people think they're healing the earth. I do this.
And that. And people put it in the context of COVID. Oh, we were so mean to COVID or we were so mean to the earth that the earth created COVID and is wiping us out. But it does do an interesting job at showing the, like you said, we can sort of put that character into a new age context of believing the human high animal hybrids were from mother earth to heal the earth and oh wait, it was science.
Well, I guess I like science now and it's not some other earth. Yeah, that is very interesting. Also I thought it was fascinating as well that this is this definitely is a spoiler. I'm not going to there's no two ways about the spoiler here.
The very end of the last episode, the doctor, I think Dr. Singh who's looking for the cure. And you know, I mentioned last episode, they got to get into the pineal gland. The first subject to test was Gus.
Because he has like a human face and he talks or whatever, the doctor couldn't. He was like, no, I want, you know, he kind of played it off as like, I want, I want more time. I'm not going to chop this child's brain open. But the second specimen they brought him was like a reptile face.
I was going to say that. Yeah. They're like, Oh, you can't kill Gus because he's a cute human face dear boy. And they're like, well, I'll actually just kill this other child and they show the child.
And it's a full on lizard person. It's a lizard boy. Yeah. And they're like, yeah, and then he, you know, you can hear the thing turn a little razor turn on.
It's like, whoa, man, I guess. This may not, this may not be a value again. None of this is really a value unless you've seen the show or you don't want to see it. We're getting into it.
But and we'll wrap up soon. I know we're just kind of going on now. But the whole dang show nine episodes, this doctor is so annoying. He's the worst doctor.
He stresses me out. My my great. He's nervous. He's nervous, a little wiener who doesn't want to do any sciencey stuff.
He's like so traumatized. No, his wife is dying of this disease and he just refuses to chop up a brain to cure his wife and the whole his entire storyline is no, no, no. I'm not going to chop up. But he's he's an ethical doctor, Basil.
Trying to paint him as this ethical man, you know, and his wife throughout the thing just keeps getting increasingly frustrated with him in ways where I'm like, well, dude, your wife is being kind of intense. But by the end, I'm like, no wonder this woman is so mad at this man. He is such a little weenie. His wife is dying and he refuses to do what it takes to cure her.
But all right, you get a little lizard boy. He's happy to chop up the lizard boy. Sure. All right.
Let's move on. Speaking of lizards, we have a couple of clips from Harry legs Biden. Harry legs. Harry legs.
This one is from G7. It's short. It's sweet. It is strange.
Somebody asked Biden the wrong question. Anytime. Hold on. Let me do that again.
And what are your plans? 120 days. Give me a break. Anytime as he walks off the podium.
You know, I don't care about the question that was asked the fact that he leaned into the mic 120 days. He sounds like a. Yeah, Liam, me center. I was thinking, uh, he's the guy who's like 80 years old now.
He was in Gran Turino. I don't know. Oh, man. Something that I don't know.
I'm going to get in trouble for not remembering him. I'm just going to look it up. Anyways, yeah, good job. That a lot of great Biden clips here.
And what are your plans? 120 days. Give me a break. Anytime.
It's like full sentence. So that he's clean. He's what I'm going to mess. Yeah.
You know, they've been trying to portray him in that light, like this good old American, you know, uh, actually, yeah, that's a great point. He really is trying to put off this Clint Eastwood vibe. Yeah. Joe mess with me.
Punk. Yeah. Ponyface, soldier pony. And this one, you're going to hear a break in his, uh, everything Joe.
It is not the show didn't go offline or anything like that. It's just Joe either receiving information or having a complete brain freeze. Well, look, I mean, he has made clear. Let me, let me just preface this.
He was asked about Putin. So he's responding to Putin. Well, look, I mean, he has made clear that, uh, uh, the answer is, I believe he's in the past, essentially acknowledge that he was a certain things that he would do or did. Wow.
I mean, even when he started talking again, it didn't make any sense of what he was saying. No. Was he getting a message? He's probably had a in your, in your person yelling at him.
Yeah. We got some exclusive footage from, are we breaking news here? We, we tapped into the KGB feed and we found this. Well, look, I mean, he has made clear that, uh, the answer is, I believe he's in the past, essentially acknowledged that he was a certain things that he would do or did do.
Okay. Great. He's acknowledged that there's things he would do or did do. Well, that makes it okay.
It's just a cultural difference. Biden genocide is fine. He was threatened by the KGB. Did you hear that?
Yeah. I heard that. We have exclusive project veritas style, exclusive reporting. All right.
Well, there you go. That was good. Good job. Yeah.
All right. We got a flippy update. You ready? We flew the update.
Do you want to ride with that? Okay, folks, it's time for the flippy update. If you're new to the show, Flippy is our colloquial name for the disembodied robot arms that are taking our jobs and slaving our children and flirting with our spouses. We use talking about Flippy as a way to explore all the new, fun and exciting ways that robots are taking over the world.
And now there's nothing we can do about it today, Gons. Coming from futurism.com and headline is watch this terrifying segue on steroids backflip using its tail. Keep it away from me. OK, says here, Tencent Robotics X lab, a subsidiary of Chinese tech conglomerate, Tencent is unveiled or has unveiled a terrifying new quote, novel wheel-legged robot called Ollie that can drive around on two wheels wielding leg like appendages as I E.
E spectrum reports. Thanks to plenty of muscle power and a creepy tail, Ollie can jump a good foot in the air and even do a back flip while jumping over a gap. As evidenced in a new video. Thanks to its extremely flexible extremities, it can write itself, drive down a step stairs and stay upright even when its makers throw all kinds of abuse at it.
It's all quite reminiscent of US-based robot maker Boston Dynamics who has on numerous occasions shown off the athletic prowess of its robotic offspring. You know, I love futurism. They just put it in language that we can understand here. Apart from backflipping over a crevasse, Ollie may soon be running errands for its masters thanks to really long robotic arm attached to the top.
The arm turns Ollie into the perfect coffee delivery robot as suggested in the promotional video. The robot is very much in development and won't be hitting markets anytime soon. Until then, we'll have to make do with Boston Dynamics's four-legged robot dog spot mini. That is if you have $75,000 to spare.
So here you go. Couple of things to note, this is from Tencent, which is one of the sort of Chinese mega conglomerates. The app development and software arm of which has gotten in trouble for pretty severe data mining practices over here in the US. And I think they're even on the list of no-no companies for US investors.
And of course, they're getting into robotics. Now, this seems to be some sort of answer, maybe Chinese tech answer to spot the robot dog as they made the comparison a few times there. For those who are just listening and can't see the video, it's one of these ones that is just rolling on two wheels. So it's very impressive how it's able to.
And when I say two wheels, I don't mean like a bicycle. I mean side by side wheels. So a lot of energy put into keeping the thing balanced and pretty impressive, watching it go up and down ramps and sort of watch its suspension, do fancy stuff and go downstairs, et cetera. But really the fun part is they've got a flippy arm that they're putting on this sucker.
I don't know how this design makes any more sense than spot the robot dog, but it can do flips. I think this thing is way more agile. It moves around quicker, faster. You can there's a little tail with the wheel on it.
So you can balance or it can balance itself if needed. We'll tripod if there's a. Yeah, there's some footage of it playing. Limbo, there's three bars with each bar that's lower.
You can go across different terrain. It's definitely more. Well, OK, I'll say this. I guess to the average consumer of spot the robot dog would get the job done.
I don't know why if you're getting a robot to get coffee, why you would need it to do backflips or. Well, you know what kind of terrain you're going to be asking for your coffee. You know, you might be in the middle of a World War III. It's definitely more acrobatic than spot.
Yes. And that makes no attempt to take some kind of form that is recognizable to human brains. I mean, that's kind of the thing with spots. Like, oh, it's like a little dog.
It's my best friend. I love it. Yeah. I wanted to be with me always.
This thing is like a little alien that'll follow you around. Does kind of look weird. Imagine like a four legged insect and the two front legs has a wheel and the two back legs has a wheel, but they're, you know, but it moves side to side. It's kind of hard to describe this thing.
Yeah, no kidding. Yeah. Well, there you go. So this is my this is actually the most impressive of these sort of.
I would call this more of a platform, a robotic platform, kind of like spot is where it's mainly just a mode of transportation for itself, which is the impressive part. But like spot, you can slap a flippy arm on this sucker, slap a paintball gun, a flamethrower, whatever you want. This little guy will do it for you. And it's Chinese.
So it's probably not against the user license agreement to put a flamethrower on it, which is a total bonus. Yeah. And I wonder what American technology was ripped off to make it with intellectual property. That is stolen.
Yeah. There's some lab in the US going, oh my gosh, I knew I shouldn't have hired those Chinese interns. Yeah. All right.
Well, there you go. I mean, this is more development in the robot. Flippy is coming for you. And literally it does flips.
Oh, you're right. This is it. This is a flippy. It is.
Oh my gosh. In a different way. Only smokes. All right.
Well, you want to get into some good stuff here? Yeah, I was just trying to find the spot where it does its flip. It's pretty intense. It looks like a world-class gymnast.
It literally jumps and does a flip from one platform to another. I know. It's like a parkour bot. All right.
I'm going to stop it or something. Well, it's too. Well, it's too. Well, it's too.
Well, it's too. A pandemic special. And this first one is a clip. John Stewart was on with Colbert.
And I don't know. It's interesting because a lot of people are really excited about John Stewart. I heard people say, Oh, he read. He's read Pilled, you know, about the whole pandemic and everything.
Well, I think we have a little bit more of an objective view of it. But in general, it was a decent segment for something that is mainstream here. I think we owe a great debt of gratitude to science. Science has in many ways helped ease the suffering of this pandemic, which was more than likely caused by science.
To that point, you were mentioning how you got this clip, like while you were watching Sweet Tooth, which is kind of the plot of Sweet Tooth, isn't it? Yeah, it really was like, Oh, these human animal hybrids made by science are here to rescue us from science. Yeah. What do you mean by doing this?
There's a chance that this was created in a lab. There's investigation. A chance. Well, I.
Oh my God. I love to hear it. There's a novel respiratory coronavirus overtaking Wuhan, China. What do we do?
Oh, you know who we could ask the Wuhan novel respiratory coronavirus lab? The disease is the same name as the lab. That's just that's just a little too weird. Don't you think?
And then they ask the scientists like, how did this? So wait a minute, you work at the Wuhan Respiratory Coronavirus Lab. How did this happen? And they're like, Mm, a pangolin, kiss the turtle.
And you're like, no, you, you, you look at the name. Look at the name. Can I, let me see your business card. Show me your business card.
Oh, I work at the coronavirus lab in Wuhan. Oh, because there's a coronavirus losing Wuhan. How did that happen? Maybe a bat flew into the cloaca of a turkey and then it sneezed into my chili.
And now we all have coronavirus. Like, OK, OK, OK, OK, OK, OK, OK. Then he goes into a bit of analogy about chocolate next to chocolate factory. It wasn't as compelling.
I thought he got the point. The point. Yeah. So there's a couple of ways of looking at this.
Obviously, I think, generally, having the theory talked about on this type of show, which, which sort of traffics in making fun of conspiracy theories. That's like their bread and butter is, oh, those silly conspiracy theories. Just trust the government. Isn't it funny how some people don't trust the government?
But to have it, you know, blatantly put out like that and not necessarily in a negative light, I would say, is probably a net benefit and kind of shows the acceptability of the obvious truth now that us and people like us have been talking about for a year and a half. But, you know, it's finally made it acceptable to talk about in the mainstream. That is net positive. He did sort of like not say correct facts.
I mean, the Institute of Virology is not called at the coronavirus respiratory lab or whatever he's trying to say. So there's a possibility that that could be used to discredit it. It means an easily googling, you know, discredit practice practice and discrediting a nutty comedian. But, you know, overall, I think it gets the point across.
What do you think? Yeah, that was a thing that was interesting was so many. It could have been bait for people like us to be like, oh, yeah, you know, finally, John Stewart, awake, red pill, whatever. But when his, the point is true that he, you know, he makes a good point about what the situation entails, but the details of his example, you're right, we're completely off.
I mean, the Wuhan Virology, Wuhan Institute of Virology, I think, is the official name and their subdivisions, Center for Immersion Infectious Disease, Chinese Virus Resource and Bioinformatics Center, Center for Applied and Environmental Microbiology. I mean, there's no coronavirus respiratory, whatever. So in that regard, yeah. Yeah.
You know what I liked about it was, I mean, the core point of what he was trying to get across was the absurdity of not accepting the idea that it could have come from the lab. Right. I mean, it is just absurd and drives people like us and our listeners crazy when it's like, oh, it couldn't have come from that lab. That's a conspiracy theory.
What, what a crazy idea. It definitely was because of the bat in the pangolin. It got married and they loved each other very much. Yes.
And, you know, so it did a great job of pointing out that absurdity. And I think overall the majority of people will are, if nothing else, they are, they now have the permission to start entertaining this idea. Those were sort of fully mind control. And I was saying this about John Stewart.
Of course, he's a Hollywood elite type, but since he went off the air on the daily show, he has, you know, he's kind of been going rogue. He has not, to my knowledge, been very, at least a very good agent of the elite machine. You know, he's been fighting to get 9-11 victims, the proper compensation and the firefighters and the police who were the first responders of 9-11. He's basically devoted his life to getting the government to give them a bunch of money, which the government has been trying very hard not to compensate the heroes of 9-11.
Yeah. For the dangers that they were, you know, in the chemicals and the asbestos and stuff like that. So, you know, he's the past, I don't know, 10 years of his existence has been spent sort of fighting against the government in that way. Not saying like he's a full, you know, and artist, rabble, rouser, and government guy.
But he has been, you know, on his face doing some work that is would not traditionally be considered Hollywood mind control. Right. It's been more for the people than anything else. And I wish I clipped it.
I don't know the timing of the clip, but there was a Fauci clip out there kind of saying now, you're like, oh, if a virus from nature came into the lab and then it got released from the lab, then it's not a leak from the lab. It's still from nature. Yeah. Yeah.
Whatever. Whatever double speech they need to employ to justify their own mind control. Yeah, because if that's the case and everything is from nature. Right.
Anyway, in light of this clip, I thought it was interesting that the New York Times dropped an article titled, A Top Virologist in China at center of a pandemic storm speaks out. Yeah. What does that what do they have to say here? It says, to a growing growing course of American politicians and scientists, she is the key to whether the world will ever learn if the virus behind the devastating COVID-19 pandemic escaped from a Chinese lab to the Chinese government and public.
She is a hero of the country's success in curbing the epidemic and a victim of malicious conspiracy theories. She's a top Chinese virologist is once again at the center of clashing narratives about her research on coronavirus at a state lab in Wuhan, the city where the pandemic first emerged. Interesting that they just straight up say clashing narratives. It's all about narratives.
It's all about the truth. It's just about clashing narratives. Well, you know, it's funny because they can't quite call it a conspiracy theory anymore. Yeah.
Yeah. They have to call it a narrative, which all news outlets are about narratives. Yeah. Well, and it rings of like this alternative facts comment.
Yeah. The alternative facts from Kellyanne Conway. Yes. She got ripped apart for it.
They're basically saying, this is a different narrative. These are alternative facts. Yeah. The idea that the virus may have escaped from a lab had long been widely dismissed by scientists as implausible and shunned by others for its connection with former former president Donald J.
But fresh scrutiny from the Biden administration and calls for greater candor from prominent scientists have brought the theory back to the fore. They don't want to admit that Trump was right about some of those things. They have to give credit to Biden, of all people. Scientists generally agree that there's still no direct evidence to support the lab leak theory.
Really? Is that true? I don't think that's true. But more than, but more of them now say that the hypothesis was dismissed too hastily without a thorough investigation and they point to a range of unsettling questions.
Some scientists say Dr. Xi conducted risky experiments with background of viruses in labs that were not safe enough. Others want clarity on reports, citing American intelligence suggesting that there were early infections of COVID-19 among several employees of the Wuhan Institute of Virology. Yes.
Dr. Xi has denied these accusations and now finds herself defending the reputation of her lab and by extension that of her country reached us. That is a problem. That is a problem reached on her cell phone two weeks ago.
Dr. Xi said at first that she preferred not to speak directly with reporters citing her institute's policies and probably government policies. Yet she could barely contain her frustration. Quote, how on earth can I offer up evidence for something where there is no evidence?
She said her voice rising in anger during the brief, unscheduled conversation. Quote, I don't know how the world has come to this constantly pouring filth on an innocent scientist. She wrote in a text message. Oh, my gosh.
In a rare interview over email, she denounced the suspicions as baseless, including the allegations that several of her colleagues may have been ill before the outbreak emerged. Yeah, that's the whole idea. That's funny. I mean, that is documented.
That's not a conspiracy theory. That's ink on paper documented that three of the employees from the lab got mysteriously sick right before the outbreak. And she's calling that baseless of which it is not baseless. And so therefore, we cannot believe anything else she's saying as if we were going to believe someone who again, this whole situation comes from authorities asking this scientists to give evidence that would implicate her as basically the person who started the global pandemic and the fall of civilization, which that's just the most insane thing to try to ask somebody to do.
Of course, she's not going to give you that evidence. Yeah, and the CCP barrel is, you know, right behind your head, right? And listening to every word she says, and they gave it away. I mean, they gave it away here in the New York Times said she's defending the reputation of her lab, of which again, documented for years before the pandemic, multiple safety infractions.
It was considered a second rate lab and had constant problems when they had safety reviews. But okay, so you want to defend that reputation sounds great. And then by extension, that of her country, yes, notoriously, the most lying deceitful and a propagandistic government in the world, at least by blatant standards. We all know America's pretty good at propaganda.
So anyway, it's just the whole concept of her. People even asking her to do this is ridiculous, but I'm sorry, continue. The speculation boils down to one central question. Did Dr.
She's lab hold any source of the new coronavirus before the pandemic erupted? Dr. She's answer is an emphatic no, but China's refusal to allow an independent investigation into her lab or to share data on its research, make it difficult to validate Dr. She's claims and has only fueled nagging suspicions about how the pandemic could have taken hold in the same city that hosts an institute known for its work on back coronaviruses.
Good job, New York Times, even though there's still going to defend China watch. Those in favor of the natural origins hypothesis, though, have pointed to Wuhan's role as a major transportation hub as well as a recent study that showed recent study hyperlinked to what another New York Times article that showed that just before the pandemic hit, the city's markets were selling many animal species capable of hard-wing dangers pathogens that could jump to humans as though that hasn't been the case for hundreds of years in Wuhan China. There's all of a sudden right before, the Chinese government has given no appearance of holding Dr. She under suspicion, no kidding.
Despite the international scrutiny, she seems to have been able to continue her research and give lectures in China. As if that's some sort of like, oh, we trust the Chinese government, if there was something to be suspicious of, surely they would investigate. Yeah. Well, look, she's still giving lectures.
See, there's nothing bad here. The stakes in this debate extend into new scientists studying infectious diseases. Some scientists have cited the lab leak scenario and pushing for greater scrutiny of gain of function experiments that broadly defined our intended to make pathogens more powerful to better understand their behavior and risks. Many scientists say they want the hunt for the virus's origin to transcend politics borders, borders, that is, and individual scientific achievements.
Quote, this has nothing to do with fault or guilt, said David Relman, a microbiologist at Stanford University and co-author of a recent letter in the journal science signed by 18 scientists that called for a transparent investigation into all viable scenarios, including a lab leak. The letter urged labs and health agencies to open their records to the public. Quote, it's just bigger than any one scientist or institute or any one country. Anybody anywhere who has data of this sort needs to put it out there, Dr.
Relman said. Transparency matters. Many virologists maintain that the coronavirus most likely jumped from animal to a human in a setting outside a lab, but without direct proof of a natural spillover, more scientists and politicians have called for a full investigation into the lab leak theory. Proponents of the lab investigation say that researchers at Dr.
She's Institute could have collected or contracted the new coronavirus from the wild, such as in a bat cave, or the scientists may have created it by accident or by design. Either way, the virus could have a good venom leak from the laboratory, perhaps by infecting a worker. That's the Fauci argument, or at least one of them is the Fauci argument that it came from nature, it went to the lab, and then it got out there. So it's not the labs fault, it's still from nature.
China has sought to influence investigations into the virus's origins while promoting its own unproven allegations. Beijing agreed to allow a team of World Health Organization experts to visit China, but limited their access, which by the way, wasn't that with the guy? Peter Dazek. Yeah, Dazek, who was the guy who got the science, the middleman between Fauci and the Wuhan Institute of Virology for the funding taxpayer dollars going to invest in the coronavirus respiratory lab.
When the HU team said in a reported march that a lab leak was extremely unlikely, its conclusion was seen as hasty. Hasty was seen as hasty is like the least super nice way of putting it. Even the head of the HU, Dr. Tedros Adhanon Gibreus said, quote, I do not believe that this assessment was extensive enough.
Last month, President Biden ordered intelligence agencies to investigate the origin question, including the lab theory. On Sunday, the leaders of the world's wealthiest large democracies at the group of seven summits, G7, urged China to be part of a new investigation into the origins of the coronavirus. Mr. Biden told reporters that he and other leaders had discussed access to labs in China, quote, transparency matters across the board, Mr.
Biden said. There's a lot more to this article. And I think we get the point here. It should be even, no, I mean, it basically goes back and forth for another 50 paragraphs here saying, you know, what could have been China?
Some people think so, but that's just crazy and trying to deny it. So what are we supposed to do? It also says that in 2017, Dr. Xi and her colleagues at the Wuhan lab published a paper about an experiment in which they created new hybrid background viruses by mixing and matching parts of several existing ones, including at least one that was nearly transmissible to humans in order to study their ability to infect and replicate in human cells.
So I mean, but they won't say like, but it couldn't have come from the lab. They're not going to connect that logic there. But you know, it's funny. You know, it's funny about this lady, Dr.
Xi. She's the bat lady. She's famous for studying coronavirus or bat coronavirus. She's famous for doing gain of function research.
I mean, by any stretch of the imagination, she should be right in the center of all this. And yet, nobody was even talking about her until like a month or two ago, where, you know, it seems like this person should have been front and center, basically the entire pandemic being like, don't worry, I study this. I know what I'm talking about. Let me help.
But no, she's basically kept secret for a year before she's even mentioned in the American media. There's this kind of suspicious. There's a picture of Dr. Xi and her team from January 15, 2020.
The outbreak had just emerged and the team were working hard to understand the new virus. No social distancing, no mass, they're just like sitting there all happy and smiley. And I love this part here where it talks about how Dr. Xi, you know, early on, she was, you know, prepared for this moment and all this kind of stuff.
And it says, soon, but soon the speculation about Dr. Xi and her lab began to swirl. Dr. Xi, who was known among friends for being blunt, was baffled and angry and sometimes let it show.
In an interview with Science Magazine last July, she said that Mr. Trump owed her an apology for claiming the virus came from her lab. On social media, she said people raised similar questions should shut your stinky mouth and quote. Okay.
Yeah. So maybe that's why she wasn't really allowed to comment on it. She's got a little bit of a body mouth. She also said that quote, I'm sure I did nothing wrong.
So I have nothing to fear. So, or you have a government that is completely covering for you. Yeah. And that's why you have nothing of your, but there you go.
Top virologist in China, that center of the pandemic storm speaks up. Nope. No lab leak. Well, I guess we got a trester.
Yeah, she says it. She says it. She. Yeah.
Oh, that's good. Yeah. So speaking of which, let's check in. This is sort of a related article here.
This comes from the national pulse.com and a headline is Zuckerberg Group Funnels, six figures to Wuhan lab partner, gain of function advocates. Oh, good. The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, Professor who has also attended conferences at the Wuhan Institute of Virology and is described by the labs batwoman as her longtime collaborator received the grant from Facebook founder, Mark Zuckerberg's philanthropic group in July 2020. Quote, the Chan Zuckerberg initiative CZI recently awarded a $433,000 grant to UNC for laboratory equipment that will accelerate research to address the COVID-19 pandemic.
A press release notes quote, this grant represents a new collaboration between the West Coast philanthropic organization CZI and UNC in search of a global solution to the pandemic. A summary adds before detailing how the grant was used. The grant covers the purchase of a liquid handler, a robotic arm that can pipette fluids much more quickly and accurately than humans can and supporting instruments, including another robot that detects active virus particles and samples and machine and a machine to sequence RNA. Together, these tools increase the rate of testing compounds by 24.
Mark Zuckerberg buying a flippy arm for a partner of the Wuhan Institute of Virology. This story has everything done. It's incredible. And $433,000 grant to everything too good.
The grant allegedly helps produce a study currently awaiting peer review entitled SARS-CoV-2 infectious virus viral RNA in nasal pharyngeal swabs and zero status of symptomatic over 19 outpatients in the United States. Quote, here we provide a comprehensive analysis of demographic immunologic virologic virologic and clinical disease factors associated with infectious virus isolation and the levels of viral RNA in nasal pharyngeal swabs samples in the largest study of symptomatic outpatient adults with COVID-19 to date. A slide from the Beric presentation on the matter also listed support from Gilead Sciences, the National Institute for Health, and Dr. Fauci's National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease.
Science is truth. Dr. Fauci attempted to cover up his relationship with Zuckerberg by telling MSNBC host Chuck Todd he had, quote, no idea what Senator Marcia Blackburn was getting at when discussing the pair's leaked emails. The Beric lab study says it aimed to gain a deeper understanding of COVID-19 in order to accurately identify and quarantine contagious individuals.
Oh, good. We need to more accurately quarantine contagious individuals. Quote, a deeper understanding of the viral and host factors associated with infectious virus detection is essential to accurately identifying quarantine contagious individuals. Several studies have reported association between SARS-CoV-2 virus isolation and viral RNA levels or time from symptom onset.
However, little is known about which host factors, i.e. demographics, comorbidities, SARS-CoV-2, seropositivity, symptomatology, etc, are associated with infectious virus detection. So it sounds like the study or what they were studying is how to test for coronavirus. Yeah, in broad terms, which is interesting because of course we've been relying on PCR testing.
I wonder if they have not used the words PCR test, maybe they're looking for, oh, I don't know, any other sort of accurate way to test for coronavirus? That could be it. Also, they have liquid handlers. They can handle liquid.
Oh, good old flippy. The financial ties between Beric and the Facebook link to charity follows the social media platform, heavily censoring users and stories that promoted theories that COVID-19's origins could be traced to a Wuhan lab. Facebook contracts with the exclusively Democrat run lead stories group, staffed mostly by CNN flunkouts. Okay, in order to censor inconvenient information, lead stories is also contracted by TikTok to turn owned intern owned by ByteDance, a firm used by the Chinese Communist Party and its People's Liberation Army, to further communist propaganda.
Dr. Beric, who has defended controversial gain of function research as a crucial tool, was an early proponent of the Facebook proof theory that COVID-19 originated through his involvement with a Landsat journal statement prematurely asserting the virus had natural origins. And there you go, the CZI has come under increased scrutiny for its role in the presidential election, funneling millions into Democrat districts to turn out the vote for Joe Biden. Oh, just had thrown that little political thing there at the end.
But there you go. So after everything, the Zuckerberg Chan philanthropic group funneling a bunch of money into Wuhan lab partners. Nothing to see here, folks. Anytime big money moves between organizations or institutions, they're just strengthening their, I guess, what's the word I'm looking for, not cohesion, collusion, to control information.
Oh my gosh, loud vehicle passing by. Yeah, it just solidifies the collusion and the cooperation between the organizations to craft and control the narrative. Yeah. And the fact that Fauci denied it pretty much means that it happened.
Oh, for sure happened. Yeah. He doesn't want to be involved. And you know, I don't even think he realizes all the stuff going on with some of the peripheral things here, because he just seems like he's just answering emails all the time.
He's just so caring and generous with his time. Yeah. All right. So moving on a little bit here, there was a clip that was sent to us by the medical chief medical officer of FLCCC.
That's the, what is this? I can't remember what it was. I have it written here. I thought I had it written here.
The frontline COVID-19 critical care alliance. And just as a summary, the FLCCC alliance was organized in March 2020 by a group of highly published world renowned critical care physicians slash scholars with the academic supports of allied physicians from around the world to research and develop life-saving protocols for the prevention and treatment of COVID-19 and all stages of illness. And they've been pushing Ivermectin for a while. And the chief medical officer came on video here and really pushed back on the government giving, I think it's like a billion and a half dollars to Merck to develop an anti-viral medication for COVID-19 called Molnupiravir, which is silly.
I'll let him explain it in response to the recent announcement by the US government that they're entering into a contractual agreement with Merck where they're going to commit $1.2 billion of taxpayer money in order to enrich Merck for a drug which has already been the source of a whistleblower complaint and which has already failed in hospitalized patients. They are now testing it in outpatient. When we already have a drug which is low cost safe widely available, which has been proven to work in many phases of disease, not only as outpatient but in patients. And so to do so, while we now currently have five published review papers from independent panels from across the world showing how effective Ivermectin is, we have over 20 randomized controlled trials showing large statistically significant benefits in mortality.
And yet we plan on giving money to a drug company for a drug that is in no way going to surpass what we already have available right now and can use. That money should instead be given to supply Ivermectin to the country. This is a colossal waste of taxpayer money. I need to call attention to how disturbed I am at Merck's actions on February 5th where they issued a statement that there was no evidence to support the efficacy of Ivermectin.
They even called into question the safety of one of the safe drugs known in history. That statement was a lie. That was a lie and it's hurting patients and it's causing incalculable loss of life. And to let that go unanswered is unacceptable.
And to commit money to a company that was behaved in this way is ridiculous. They should instead be saddled with a colossal fine. Strong words coming up to Pierre Corey, and the chief medical officer of the FLCC. Yeah, unfortunately, it's just the continuation of the game plan that we've been seeing for a year and a half where it's not really about finding a cure or therapy or a vaccine.
It's not really not about any of that. It's about transferring money, taxpayer dollars to big pharma. We've seen it over and over and over. Yeah.
And Merck is worth about $190 billion. It's a leading global biopharmaceutical company outside of the US and Canada. So yeah, it's interesting that the they're, you know, the US government's funding again foreign medical pharmaceutical, big pharma from other countries, yeah. Got to love it.
Yeah. Good for America. Good. Thanks, Biden.
Thanks, Joe. Hey, he's got he's got all this money burning a hole in his pockets. He printed 25% of the entire US dollar supply last year. Yeah, not Biden.
Not Biden. Trump was an office back. Oh, sorry. Yeah, just over.
I'm just saying that the American machine. Sure. Over the past year has got a money burning a hole in his pocket. Anytime.
There's Biden needs time. Yeah. Well, let's move into some variants, scones. We got you in the variants.
Yeah. This is coming from marketwatch.com. And the headline is fear grows that Delta variant will become dominant COVID strain worldwide, as who says it's now in 74 countries. The Delta variant of COVID-19 has now been detected in 74 countries, prompting fears.
It will become the dominant strain around the world as it continues to spread rapidly, including in southern US states that have lagged on vaccination. No, the vaxxed people are getting the Delta strain. That's right. The highly infectious variant that was first detected in India has been founding countries, including China, the US and the UK, according to the World Health Organization, where it accounted for more than 90% of new cases in the past week, that prompted Prime Minister Boris Johnson to delay the UK's planned reopening for another four weeks in an announcement at a news briefing on Monday.
Surprise, surprise. Pretty sure we called that. These always looking for reasons to extend the lockdown. In the US cases caused by the variant are roughly doubling every two weeks, according to former Food and Drug Administration Commissioner, Scott Gottlieb.
Now, here's a quick question. Scott Gottlieb is the former Food and Drug Administration Commissioner. Why is he giving official numbers? He's not the Food and Drug Commissioner.
Always, always at once FDA always FDA, apparently. And now account for at least 10% of new cases. He told CBS has faced the nation. Quote, that doesn't mean that we're going to see a sharp, sharp uptick in infections, but it does mean that this is going to take over.
So God, quote, and I think the risk is just going to take over. Don't worry about it. And I think the risk is really that this could spike a new epidemic heading into the fall. Oh, God.
There we go. Concerns about the Delta variant come as California lifts most of its COVID-19 restrictions and ushers in what it is calling the Golden State's grand reopening, as the Associated Press reported. Starting Tuesday, there will be no more state rules blah, blah, blah. Goes into the goes into the opening of California.
