    another introduced by Sens. Joni Ernst (R-IA), Roger Marshall (R-KS), and Ron Johnson (R-WI) that permanently prohibits U.S. funding for the Wuhan Institute of Virology.
    GREAT NEWS!

      Re: Latest on the Corona Virus

      We really need an apology from Nancy Pelosi and the rest of democrat leadership. They lied and misled the American people about the source of Covid because they hated Trump. The science didn't change...the only thing that's changed is the politics. Democrats have blood on their hands because they refuse to stand up to China. In fact Democrats are in bed with China.



      Biden: Intel community torn between 'two likely scenarios' on COVID-19 outbreak source
      One faction leans toward lab accident theory, while the other favors animal-to-human contact theory

      President Biden on Wednesday asked the intelligence community to "redouble" their efforts to "collect and analyze" information that could bring the U.S. closer to a "definitive conclusion" on the origins of COVID-19, saying U.S. intelligence officials are currently torn between "two likely scenarios."


      The president, on Wednesday, said that when COVID-19 emerged in early 2020, he, as a candidate, called for the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention "to get access to China to learn about the virus so we could fight it more effectively."


      "The failure to get our inspectors on the ground in those early months will always hamper any investigation into the origin of COVID-19," Biden said Wednesday.


      "Nevertheless, shortly after I became President, in March, I had my National Security Advisor task the Intelligence Community to prepare a report on their most up-to-date analysis of the origins of COVID-19, including whether it emerged from human contact with an infected animal or from a laboratory accident," Biden said, noting that he received that report earlier this month, and asked for "additional follow-up."


      "As of today, the U.S. Intelligence Community has ‘coalesced around two likely scenarios’ but has not reached a definitive conclusion on this question," Biden explained. "Here is their current position: ‘while two elements in the IC leans toward the former scenario and one leans more toward the latter – each with low or moderate confidence – the majority of elements do not believe there is sufficient information to assess one to be more likely than the other.’"


      "I have now asked the Intelligence Community to redouble their efforts to collect and analyze information that could bring us closer to a definitive conclusion, and to report back to me in 90 days," Biden said in a statement Wednesday. "As part of that report, I have asked for areas of further inquiry that may be required, including specific questions for China."


      Biden added that he has also asked that the effort include work by "our National Labs and other agencies of our government to augment the Intelligence Community’s efforts."


      "And I have asked the Intelligence Community to keep Congress fully apprised of its work," Biden said Wednesday.


      SEN. COTTON SAYS FAUCI, NIH NEED TO ‘COME CLEAN’ ABOUT WUHAN LAB FUNDING


      "The United States will also keep working with like-minded partners around the world to press China to participate in a full, transparent, evidence-based international investigation and to provide access to all relevant data and evidence," Biden said.


      The Biden administration is calling for a transparent international investigation into the origins of the coronavirus pandemic, with the White House calling for China and the World Health Organization to provide data and information necessary for U.S. officials to draw conclusions.


      The White House has criticized the WHO and China for its "phase one" report for its lack of transparency. That report dismissed claims that COVID-19 had escaped from the lab in Wuhan, and called the theory of zoonotic transmission, or transfer of infection from animals to humans, "likely to very likely."


      The report called the prospect that the virus transmitted from an animal reservoir to an animal host, followed by subsequent spread within that intermediate host that then transmits it to humans, "likely to very likely." It also said the idea that the virus may have leaked from the Wuhan Institute of Virology "extremely unlikely."


      The report called for further investigation in every area except the lab leak hypothesis.


      "We're hopeful that we can move into a more transparent, independent phase two investigation," White House press secretary Jen Psaki said Monday, again calling for "access to the underlying data and information."


      "An international investigation led by the World Health Organization is something that we've actually been pressing for for several months in coordination with a range of partners around the world," Psaki continued. "We need that data. We need that information from the Chinese government. What we can't do, and what I would caution anyone from doing is leaping ahead of an actual international process."


      Adversity temporarily visits a strong man but stays with the weak for a lifetime.

        This is great. There is no such thing as too much knowledge.

                      Not just an apology, but a full-on admission that President Trump was correct in most instances where they vilified him or said he was spreading "misinformation".


                      Here's a small list: (Covid related)
                      -UV light - proven at the end of 2020 that it can kill 99.9% of coronavirus in less than 30 seconds! They mocked Trump for suggesting this.

                      -EU Travel Ban - Fauci and other experts applauded Trump, saying the travel ban saved potentially 10's of thousands of lives, and helped prevent the spread. Trump was called a racist and xenophobe by democrats and the media for instituting the ban.

                      -People Working = A Better Economy - Trump said "People need to go back to work to keep the economy from collapsing"......he was vilified for this statement, but just a couple of weeks ago, Sleepy Joe said, "People going back to work is what's going to save this economy".

                      -Hydroxychloroquine - Proven by many countries, multiple University studies (both in the U.S. and abroad), and CDC research to be an effective tool against the Chinese Coronavirus, and over 70% of U.S. hospitals/ doctors have been using it for "off label" use throughout the pandemic! <--(Won't hear about that on the MSM!
                      South Korea has used it since the beginning of the pandemic with Great success, and have partially attributed the use of it to their low covid numbers. They have 51.7 Million people, with only 138,000 cases and less than 2,000 deaths, all without instituting lockdowns, and keeping their people working and their economy booming.
                      China also uses it, and ramped up their production of it when the demand from dozens of countries reached an all-time high! <-(Pretty telling there).
                      Trump was ridiculed for calling it a "game changer", but now with over a year of trials and research, the consensus around the world is that hydroxychloroquine works, and it works well against covid.

                      There are many more examples like this.

                      I had a conversation with an "on-the-fence-liberal" friend of mine the other day, and he couldn't believe how many times Trump was actually RIGHT! He told me he went and did his own researching, and found it astonishing how much the media and Big Tech platforms lied about him and vilified him for making the right choices and making accurate statements/ assessments.

                        Biden stopped the Trump investigation because it wasn't controlled by the WHO and China!
                        It was controlled by the State Department under Trump, and they were getting waaaayy too close the truth, and had to be stopped!
                        Now the "investigation" will be in the hands of the World Health Organization, and by association, China!

                          Why is it that the "had to be stopped".
                          IF it comes out that the virus did escape from a lab instead of from a market, how does that change anything?
                          I want to know where the virus came from as much as the next person, but knowing isn't going to affect anything.
