Flashback: Why did Moderna sign a government contract for its vaccines before COVID-19?

When Dr. Fauci testified before a House subcommittee on the origins of COVID-19, many thought the time had finally come for tough questions.

While the questions asked made it clear that he lied about six-foot distancing and masking — Glenn Beck knows it could, and should, have been a lot worse.

“I find this incredible that we’ve missed this,” Glenn says, noting that the government signed a contract with Moderna on December 12, 2019, that ensured the pharmaceutical company would not be held liable for its vaccines.

The contract was originally proposed in 2015.

“I’ve been through many, many high level negotiations, but I’ve never seen anything that started four years before. Coincidentally, once they find the Frankenstein virus and then they negotiate for four years, and what a coincidence, they sign it just before the breakout of COVID,” Glenn says.

Not only was the pharmaceutical company ready far before the outbreak, but Dr. Fauci had been funding gain-of-function research — which he has continuously lied about.

“There’s lie number one. Then this strange, ‘Hey let’s partner with Moderna.’ I don’t think this is normal,” Glenn continues, noting that the gain-of-function research was paid for by American taxpayers.

“Where’s the money, where’s it going? My feeling is it’s going to fund more of this,” he predicts, adding, “We already know Fauci was funding the Wuhan lab. We also recently found out that he was funding experiments that killed puppies in a gruesome way. So, what else was getting funded through government and private funds?”

After following the money trail as well as endless incriminating emails, Glenn has come to a conclusion.

“Is there any other way to describe it other than Fauci and the president’s science advisor colluding behind the president’s back, withholding information from him?” he asks.

“Fauci has already been brought in front of Congress and Rand Paul caught him in a bold-faced lie. Fauci will testify again, but it’s probably time to bring in the former president’s science advisor as well.”

‘Because I said so’: 5 takeaways from the Fauci hearing

Former director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases Anthony Fauci was
grilled by the Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic for 14 hours in January. In the lengthy interview, Fauci admitted that he was unaware of any scientific studies demonstrating that masking for children worked or that the 6-foot social distancing guidelines — which effectively shut down schools, churches, and businesses — were an effective way of curbing the spread of the coronavirus. Fauci also acknowledged that the lab leak theory was not a conspiracy theory as he previously suggested.

Fauci, who plays a starring role in BlazeTV’s “The Coverup,” appeared before the committee Monday to speak to these admissions as well as to his role in overseeing the funding of deadly gain-of-function experiments.

”Because I said so.’ That’s never been good enough for Americans and it never will be.’

Committee Chairman Brad Wenstrup (R-Ohio)
told Fauci at the outset, “Whether intentional or not, you became so powerful that any disagreements the public had with you were forbidden and censored on social and most legacy media time and time again. That is why so many Americans became so angry — because this was fundamentally un-American.”

“‘Because I said so.’ That’s never been good enough for Americans and it never will be,” added Wenstrup. “Americans do not want to be indoctrinated. They want to be educated.”

The hearing had the potential to be educational; however, Democratic committee members opted for the latter, celebrating Fauci, defending his preferred narratives, and lobbing attacks on their political opponents.

Republican lawmakers, alternatively, attempted to hold Fauci’s feet to a low-heat fire, largely failing to get results.

What follows are five key takeaways from the Fauci hearing.

1. Not so effective after all

When asked straight out by Wenstrup whether the vaccine “stopped transmission of the virus,” Fauci answered, “That is a complicated issue because in the beginning, the first iteration of the vaccines did have an effect — not 100%, not a high effect — they did prevent infection and subsequently, obviously transmission.”

‘I feel extreme confidence in the safety and the efficacy of this vaccine.’

“However, it’s important to point out something that we did not know early on that became evident as the months went by is that the durability of protection against infection and hence transmission was relatively limited whereas the duration of protection against severe disease, hospitalization, and death was more prolonged,” said Fauci. “In the beginning it was felt that in fact it did prevent infection and thus transmission.”

After discovering Fauci
would not disavow any of the draconian COVID measures he championed during the pandemic, Rep. Michael Cloud (R-Texas) also asked Fauci about his support for vaccine mandates and the efficacy of vaccines.

Fauci reiterated, “It clearly prevented infection in a certain percentage of people, but the durability of its ability to prevent infection was not long.”

Fauci was one of the most visible and consistent exponents of the “safe and effective” mantra, having
claimed in December 2020, “I feel extreme confidence in the safety and the efficacy of this vaccine and I want to encourage everyone who has the opportunity to get vaccinated so that we can have a veil of protection over this country, that would end this pandemic.”

2. Fauci: The blameless victim

Whereas Republican members blasted the former NIAID director for funding dangerous experiments of the kind that may have kicked off the pandemic as well as his years-long promotion of falsehoods, Democrats painted Fauci as a blameless victim and seized on the opportunity, as Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-Md.) did, to attack former President Donald Trump and other Republicans.

Rep. Debbie Dingell (D-Mich.) told Fauci, “You’re human, just like the rest of us,” and stressed that he “deserve[s] better.”

“I’ve seen your commitment not just to science, but to, again, to the greater good,” said Dingell.

‘You have been a hero to many for 54 years.’

After singing Fauci’s praises, Dingell gave Fauci an opportunity to complain about facing criticism and perceived threats.

Democratic Reps. Dingell, Robert Garcia (Calif.), Jill Tokuda (Hawaii), Katherine Castor (Fla.), Raul Ruiz (Calif.), and Kweisi Mfume (Md.) similarly engaged in hagiography.

“We owe you an apology for the way we have dragged you through the mud,” said Mfume.

“You have been a hero to many for 54 years,” continued Mfume. “You are a world-renowned scientist and an American patriot.”

Mfume made no mention of Americans who have suffered vaccine injuries but instead spoke in the abstract of “thousands of American lives [that] could have been spared” if they had not followed so-called conspiracy theories during the pandemic.

After paying his respects to Fauci, Rep. Garcia asked whether the “American public should listen to America’s brightest and best doctors and scientists, or instead listen to podcasters, conspiracy theorists, and unhinged Facebook memes.”

“Listening to the people just described is going to do nothing but harm people because they will deprive themselves of life-saving interventions,” said Fauci, who was among the so-called experts who
cautioned against using ivermectin to fight COVID-19.

Fauci proceeded to accuse the unvaccinated of getting an estimated 200,000-300,000 killed in the U.S. alone.

3. Fauci hangs ‘inner circle’ out to dry

Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer (R-Ky.) noted that there is “a troubling pattern of behavior” in Fauci’s “inner circle,” naming Fauci’s
David M. Morens, senior scientific adviser to the head of the NIAID, and Fauci’s former chief of staff as two offenders.

Comer pressed Fauci on whether Morens violated NIH policy by using a personal email for official purposes. Fauci appeared more than willing to throw his former adviser and frequent correspondent under the bus, indicating Morens’ personal email use to avoid transparency was indeed in violation of agency policy.

“Does it violate NIAID policy to delete records to intentionally avoid FOIA?”

“Yes,” said Fauci.

‘That was wrong and inappropriate and violated policy.’

“On April 28, 2020, Dr. Morens edited an EcoHealth press release regarding the grant termination. Does that violate policy?” asked Comer.

“That was inappropriate for him to be doing that for a grantee as a conflict of interest, among other things,” said Fauci.

“On March 29, 2021, Dr. Morens edited a letter that Dr. Daszak was sending to NIH. Does that violate policy?” asked Comer.

“Yes, it does,” answered Fauci.

“On Oct. 25, 2021, Dr. Brady provided Dr. Daszak with advice regarding how to mislead NIH on EcoHealth’s late progress report. Does that violate policy?” asked Comer.

“That was wrong and inappropriate and violated policy,” said Fauci.

“On Dec. 7, 2021, Dr. Morens wrote to the chair of EcoHealth board of directors to quote, ‘Put in a word,’ for Dr. Daszak. Does that violate policy?” asked Comer.

“Should not have been done, and that was wrong,” said Fauci. “Well, I’m not sure of a specific policy, but I imagine that does violate policy. Should not have been doing that.”

4. Fauci denies funding gain-of-function research

Rep. Debbie Lesko (R-Ariz.) asked Fauci whether the National Institutes of Health funded gain-of-function research at the Wuhan Institute of Virology.

‘I would not characterize it as dangerous gain-of-function research.’

“I would not characterize it the way you did,” said Fauci, contradicting the NIH’s account. “The National Institutes of Health, through a sub-award to the Wuhan Institute of Virology, funded research on the surveillance of and the possibility of emerging infections. I would not characterize it as dangerous gain-of-function research.”

Elsewhere in his testimony Monday, Fauci
said that “according to the regulatory and operative definition of [Proposed Research Involving Enhanced Potential Pandemic Pathogens], the NIH did not fund gain-of-function research at the Wuhan Institute of Virology.”

Lesko quoted NIH Principal Deputy Director Lawrence Tabak as acknowledging the “failure of the Wuhan Institute of Virology to provide us with the data that we requested and the lab notebooks that we requested, [which] certainly impeded our ability to understand what was really going on with the experiments that we have been discussing.”

Granted the lack of transparency at the infamous lab, Lesko asked Fauci how he can be certain that the National Institutes of Health did not fund gain-of-function research on coronaviruses in China granted its subcontractor EcoHealth Alliance’s reporting failures.

Fauci once again stressed that the NIH did not fund the deadly research in question, which EcoHealth Alliance’s subcontractor specialized in.

5. Downplayed likelihood of lab leak

Fauci claimed Monday that the idea he covered up a lab leak was “preposterous.”

Fauci indicated in his opening statement that he was informed on Jan. 31, 2020, “through phone calls with Jeremy Farrar, then director of the Wellcome Trust in the U.K., and then with Christian Anderson, a highly regarded scientist at Scripps Research Institute, that they and Eddie Holmes, a world class evolutionary biologist from Australia, were concerned that the genomic sequence of SARS-CoV-2 suggested that the virus could have been manipulated in a lab.”

Fauci then noted he partook in a conference call the next day “with about a dozen international virologists to discuss this possibility versus a spillover from an animal reservoir.”

Despite indications to the contrary, Fauci claimed, “The accusation being circulated that I influenced these scientists to change their minds by bribing them with millions of dollars in grant money is absolutely false and simply preposterous. I had no input into the content of the published paper,” referencing the March 2020 study published in the journal Nature, “The Proximal Origins of SARS-CoV-2.”

“The second issue is a false accusation that I tried to cover up the possibility that the virus originated from a lab. In fact, the truth is exactly the opposite,” continued Fauci. “I have repeatedly stated that I have a completely open mind to either possibility and that if definitive evidence becomes available to validate or refute either theory, I will readily accept it.”

Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) later asked Fauci whether he downplayed the lab leak theory on account of having funded experimental viruses at the Wuhan lab — funding Fauci copped to but Ranking Member Raul Ruiz nevertheless cast doubt on in his closing remarks.

Fauci, prickled by the suggestion that he tried to downplay the possibility he had fingerprints on research that got millions of Americans killed, answered in the negative.

Florida grand jury investigates COVID criminal activity; exposes ‘expert and media lies’

The hits to those behind the COVID response just keep coming — and for good reason.

A Florida grand jury has added to the recent revelations about the COVID response when they investigated potential criminal activity or wrongdoing by the media, pharmaceutical companies, and all of the authorities who promoted the vaccine during the pandemic.

The investigation was requested by Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) and authorized by the Florida Supreme Court.

The findings unsurprisingly support what conservatives have been saying all along.

One of the findings is that COVID patients gain natural immunity through infection, despite Americans being told for years that natural immunity was no match for the virus.

“They acted like you were a conspiracy nut job if you talked about it,” Pat Gray says, disgusted. “Everybody that didn’t have financial gain at stake knew,” Keith Malinak adds.

The second finding was that government experts knowingly attacked potential COVID treatments if they were not one of the vaccines. The most notable was the expert class war against hydroxychloroquine and ivermectin.

The jury reported that well-credentialed scientists and clinicians were dissatisfied with the data the FDA used to justify its decision to revoke emergency use authorization of hydroxychloroquine for treating COVID patients.

“There was even talk of taking away doctor’s medical licenses if they prescribed this stuff,” Gray says. “These quacks are prescribing horse paste,” he adds, mocking the “experts.”

The grand jury’s third finding was that “expert and media lies put lives at risk.”

“It’s despicable what happened here, and it’s great that DeSantis did this, that he put together a grand jury to indict these idiots,” Gray comments.

Globalists suffer big upset in Geneva; WHO chief urges aggressive crackdown on ‘global pandemic agreement’ skeptics

Globalists suffer big upset in Geneva; WHO chief urges aggressive crackdown on ‘global pandemic agreement’ skeptics

WHO director-general Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus and other globalists were met with failure at the May 27-June 1 World Health Assembly in Geneva, Switzerland. Rather than win over critics with reassurances ahead of the next stage of his campaign to promote the failed scheme, Ghebreyesus instead doubled down, urging a crackdown on skeptics.

Road to failure

Ghebreyesus has spent several months promoting his “global pandemic agreement.”

In his Feb. 12 Dubai address, entitled, “A Pact with the Future: Why the Pandemic Agreement Is Mission-Critical for Humanity,” Ghebreyesus said, “We cannot allow this historic agreement, this milestone in global health, to be sabotaged by those who spread lies, either deliberately or unknowingly.”

The critics whom Ghebreyesus branded liars and conspiracy theorists include those who reckon the pact would
undermine national sovereignty as well as those skeptical of the WHO’s competence. In the latter case, the WHO did itself no favors in recent years, particularly during the pandemic.

After all, the organization
reportedly aided the Chinese communist regime in its cover up of COVID-19’s origins; told the nations of the world not to restrict travelers from China or close their borders even though China had domestically; granted Beijing a veto over the WHO’s COVID-19 origins report; and it endorsed vaccines that were not nearly as safe or as effective as advertised, including the blood clot-inducing Oxford-AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine whose developer now faces a class-action lawsuit over injuries in the United Kingdom as well as a recent lawsuit in Utah. Prior to the pandemic, it also courted controversy with its sexual abuse scandal, wasteful spending, and corruption.

Evidently, it was not enough for the WHO director to demean opponents of his grand scheme to see it through.

‘I know that there remains among you a common will to get this done.’

“Of course, we all wish that we had been able to reach a consensus on the agreement in time for this health assembly, and cross the finish line,” Ghebreyesus said in his
opening remarks at the 77th World Health Assembly. “I remain confident that you still will, because where there is a will, there is a way. I know that there remains among you a common will to get this done.”

In the days that followed, the assembly failed to cross the finish line or even come close. As the result, Ghebreyesus has sought to transform the race into a marathon.

New deadline for a desired result

Desperate to keep the dream alive after two years of futile negotiations, the WHO had countries agree to continue negotiating the proposed globalist pact. A package of half-measures have apparently been accepted to tide over pandemic treaty supporters in the meantime.

The WHO
said in a statement Saturday that the World Health Assembly and its 194 member countries “agreed [on] a package of critical amendments to the International Health Regulations (2005) (IHR), and made concrete commitments to completing negotiations on a global pandemic agreement within a year, at the latest.”

The half-measures compromise amendments to the IHR that will supposedly “strengthen global preparedness, surveillance and responses to public health emergencies, including pandemics.”

These include a new definition for “pandemic emergency”; another “equity”-driven international wealth re-distribution mechanism; the creation of a new bureaucracy to oversee the implementation of the other half-measures; and the creation of IHR authorities for member countries to “improve coordination of implementation of the Regulations within and among countries.”

“The amendments to the International Health Regulations will bolster countries’ ability to detect and respond to future outbreaks and pandemics by strengthening their own national capacities, and coordination between fellow States, on disease surveillance, information sharing and response,” said Ghebreyesus. “This is built on commitment to equity, an understanding that health threats do not recognize national borders, and that preparedness is a collective endeavor.”

Clampdown on vaccine critics

After negotiators failed to produce a draft deal for approval by the WHO annual assembly, Ghebreyesus
gave a speech promoting health initiatives and vaccines.

‘I think they use COVID as an opportunity and, you know, all the havoc they’re creating.’

Toward the end of his remarks, he noted, “You know, the serious challenge that’s posed by anti-vaxxers and I think we need to strategize to really push back because vaccines work, vaccines affect adults, and we have science, evidence on our side.”

“I think it’s time to be more aggressive in pushing back on anti-vaxxers,” continued the WHO director. “I think they use COVID as an opportunity and, you know, all the havoc they’re creating. Maybe that’s one of the messages I’d also like to include to whatever I have [to] say.”

Fauci admits there was no scientific evidence for 6-foot social distancing or masking children, concedes lab leak was ‘possible’

Dr. Anthony Fauci admitted that there was no scientific evidence behind the 6-foot social distancing protocol or the guidelines for masking children, according to bombshell congressional testimony. Fauci also conceded that the lab leak theory is a “possible” explanation for the origins of COVID-19.

On Friday, the Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic released 500 pages of transcripts of a congressional interview with Fauci that was conducted in January 2024.

During the interview, Fauci was asked if there were any scientific studies showing that the 6-foot social distancing guidelines were an effective deterrent to spreading the coronavirus.

Fauci – who was the Director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases for nearly four decades – responded, “I was not aware of studies that in fact, that would be a very difficult study to do.”

Fauci was a top leader of the White House Coronavirus Task Force under former President Donald Trump and the Chief Medical Advisor to President Joe Biden.

Also during the congressional interview, Fauci was asked if he recalled “reviewing any studies or data supporting masking for children?”

He replied that he “might have,” but added, “I don’t recall specifically that I did.”

Fauci was then questioned if he had seen any of the scientific studies showing children wearing masks suffered learning loss as well as speech and development issues.

Fauci answered, “No. But I believe that there are a lot of conflicting studies too, that there are those that say, yes, there is an impact, and there are those that say there’s not. I still think that’s up in the air.”

During the interview, Fauci was asked if he believed that the coronavirus had the origin of a “laboratory accident” or if the lab leak was a conspiracy theory.

“Well, it’s a possibility. I think people have made conspiracy aspects from it. And I think you have to separate the two when you keep an open mind, that it could be a lab leak or it could be a natural occurrence,” Fauci said.

He continued, “I’ve mentioned in this committee that I believe the evidence that I’ve seen weighs my opinion towards one, which is a natural occurrence, but I still leave an open mind. So I think that in and of itself isn’t inherently a conspiracy theory, but some people spin off things from that that are kind of crazy.”

The subcommittee asked if we’ll ever know the origins of the COVID-19 virus, to which he replied that the lack of cooperation from the Chinese government “makes it less and less likely that we’ll ever know.”

The release of the transcripts arrived just days before Fauci is set to testify in his first public hearing since his retirement in December 2022.

Fauci will testify before the House’s COVID Select Subcommittee on Monday.

Subcommittee Chairman Rep. Brad Wenstrup (R-OH) said in a statement: “Retirement from public service does not excuse Dr. Fauci from accountability to the American people. On June 3, Americans will have an opportunity to hear directly from Dr. Fauci about his role in overseeing our nation’s pandemic response, shaping pandemic-era polices, and promoting singular questionable narratives about the origins of COVID-19.”

BlazeTV host Matt Kibbe and his fact-finding team at Free the People have spent months investigating the origins of COVID-19 and how Fauci may have been lying during the entire pandemic.

Kibbe explained how things could go south for Fauci.

“A lot of Fauci deputies are starting to talk,” Kibbe stated. “We had a former NIH director announce in testimony that of course we were doing gain-of-function research. So pretty much a smoking gun.”

Blaze Media recently released the new docuseries, “The Coverup,” which Kibbe said the investigative series will “shine light on the shadowy government figures who caused so much pain and suffering with their tyrannical overreach during the pandemic.”

He contended, “They would rather we not uncover what really happened. They want us to just move on. Unfortunately for them, I’m not going to let that happen.”

Watch: ‘Dishonest’ Chris Cuomo gets ‘absolutely bodied’ by Dave Smith in ivermectin debate when libertarian brings receipts

Comedian and libertarian political commentator Dave Smith teed off on former CNN anchor Chris Cuomo during a wide-ranging debate, including on lockdowns, ivermectin, and the conviction of former President Donald Trump.

The two political commentators squared off during a debate hosted by Patrick Bet-David – the founder of Valuetainment.

Referencing the attacks on Joe Rogan for using ivermectin, Cuomo claimed that he “didn’t like what people did” to the prolific podcaster.

Smith immediately fired back, “You did it. No, no. You did.”

The audience laughed, and Cuomo responded, “No. No.”

After Smith rebutted him, Cuomo challenged him to “find the clips.”

You’re being so dishonest right now.

Within seconds, there was a video clip from CNN recorded during the pandemic, in which Cuomo is seen shaming the use of ivermectin right after Rogan infamously admitted that he was taking the anti-parasitic drug approved for humans in 1987 that has “saved lives and improved the welfare of billions of people.”

The clip shows both Cuomo and Don Lemon when they were still employed at CNN.

Lemon began by saying, “People who are getting, injecting, drugs for animals and horses – oh my God.”

Cuomo interjected, “And people telling them to! What person – you know you talk about cancel culture and who to shame – ivermectin? A dewormer? Really? … they need to be shamed. They need to be called out and shamed, brother.”

The audience booed Cuomo after the video clip played.

Smith blasted Cuomo, “You’re being so dishonest right now.”

Smith questioned Cuomo, “So you’re taking a dewormer right now? Do you want to apologize for that?”

Last month, Cuomo confessed that he had long COVID and it could have been caused by the COVID-19 mRNA vaccine.

As Blaze News previously reported, Cuomo told Bet-David of COVID-19 vaccine side effects, “Do I now believe that we have data to support the fact that there are thousands of people who have adverse effects, that are not getting attention let alone treatment? Yes, and I fault government for that. I do not fault myself for telling people at the time what the government was giving us as best practices.”

The News Nation anchor also admitted that he was taking ivermectin.

“I’ll tell you something else that’s going to get you a lot of hits. I am taking a … regular dose, you know whatever, of ivermectin. Ivermectin was a boogeyman early on in COVID,” Cuomo said. “That was wrong. We were given bad information about ivermectin. The real question is, ‘Why?'”

Cuomo continued, “Everyone is going to say, ‘Joe Rogan was right.’ No, Joe Rogan was saying — yeah, he was right, but that’s not what matters. What matters is the entire clinical community knew that ivermectin couldn’t hurt you. They knew it, Patrick. I know they knew it. How do I know it?” Because now I am doing nothing but talking to these clinicians who at the time were overwhelmed by COVID, and they weren’t saying anything, not that they were hiding anything. But it’s cheap, it’s not owned by anybody, and it’s used as anti-microbial, anti-viral in all these different ways and has been for a long time.”

Smith recounted when CNN’s chief medical correspondent Dr. Sanjay Gupta appeared on “The Joe Rogan Experience” in October 2021. When pressed by Rogan, Gupta admitted that his fellow CNN colleagues “shouldn’t have said” that he was taking horse dewormer.

There were several occasions when CNN personalities accused Rogan of taking “horse dewormer.”

Top X social media platform creator Collin Rugg posted a video of the exchange with the caption: “Chris Cuomo gets absolutely bodied after he says he ‘didn’t like what people did to Joe Rogan’ when he came out in support of ivermectin.”

Smith demanded Cuomo to apologize to Rogan.

Regarding Cuomo’s flip-flop on ivermectin use after attacking Rogan for taking it, Smith told the former CNN anchor, “You were smearing him [Rogan] for saying that. You literally said, ‘He’s taking horse dewormer. He should be ashamed of himself.’ You pleaded with your audience to not take it [ivermectin].”

Smith scolded Cuomo, “How do you not apologize to Joe Rogan?”

The crowd also chimed in to demand Cuomo apologize to Rogan.

Smith – a member of the Mises Caucus of the Libertarian Party – also nailed Cuomo for claiming that the draconian lockdowns during the pandemic were not totalitarian.

“When you’re waking up every morning to watch your TV to find out from your governor what you’re allowed to do today, including am I allowed to go to work, am I allowed to have a funeral for my father, am I allowed to see my family, am I allowed to step outside without a cover on my face – there is one word and one word only for that, and that is totalitarianism,” Smith declared.

Smith called out Cuomo and the rest of the legacy media for falsely accusing Trump of colluding with Russia.

“You guys were repeating mindlessly every day that there was some giant conspiracy with Trump and Russia and leading the entire country to believe that our election had been stolen by a hostile foreign power,” Smith stated.

Smith said of “Russiagate,” “The whole thing was complete nonsense just to frame Donald Trump so he couldn’t get his agenda through, and CNN ran with it every single day – unquestioning.”

Smith and Cuomo did agree that Trump should not have been convicted of felony counts in his hush money trial.

“This was a misdemeanor that was trumped up to felonies. To call it 34 counts is laughable because the 34 counts are different checks that were signed to pay back Cohen,” Cuomo proclaimed. “This district attorney has no problem knocking down significant felonies to misdemeanors – he did it 70% of the time.”

He added, “You don’t make this case against anybody else,” and that is brought “for the wrong reasons.”

Cuomo said the conviction “emboldens his case that everything that happens in America is corrupt,” which he described as a “tragedy.”

On Saturday, Smith tweeted about the debate: “The response to last night’s debate with Cuomo has been unbelievable. I know I was speaking for a lot of people and I’m glad so many of you thought I did a good job.”

BlazeTV debuts damning docuseries exposing COVID origins ‘coverup’ ahead of Fauci hearing

There was a concerted public-private campaign during the pandemic to downplay the strong likelihood that COVID-19 — a virus that would go on to kill millions worldwide — did not originate in the controversial Chinese communist lab that long engaged in dangerous experiments on coronaviruses with the help of U.S. taxpayer dollars.

While the Chinese communist regime
did its part to bury evidence of a potential lab leak as the virus was first spreading, then-director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases Anthony Fauci ultimately did the heavy lifting in terms of narrative curation.

Anthony Fauci and the virologists in his orbit
worked feverishly to suggest that the virus had a zoonotic origin, concealing their own doubts about that possibility while denigrating those who would suggest otherwise.

There was cause, after all, for them to engage in revisionism and propaganda. Elements of the Western medical establishment admittedly didn’t want to
alienate China by assigning it any blame over the deaths of multitudes of Americans, and Fauci had his fingerprints on the American grant money poured into dangerous work at the Wuhan Institute of Virology via disgraced zoologist Peter Daszak’s EcoHealth Alliance — whose gain-of-function subcontractor was ostensibly among the patients zero who took ill in late 2019.

The lab-leak theory was
censored on social media, especially on Facebook, which directly coordinated with Fauci. Talk show hosts, talking heads, and once respected newspapers dutifully parroted the approved talking points.

Yet, not all were convinced in Washington, D.C., the media, and the medical establishment — certainly not Stanford University’s Dr. Jay Bhattacharya, epidemiologist and co-author of the “Great Barrington Declaration,” and Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.).

Both Bhattacharya and Paul are among those featured in ”
The Coverup,” a new documentary series presented by Blaze Media and Free the People, which debuts today on BlazeTV.

”
The Coverup” explores the evolution of the Fauci-anointed COVID-19 origins narrative, the corresponding censorship campaign, various underlying motives and vested interests, and the ultimate breakdown of truth, breaking new ground and making Fauci’s job of spinning yarns before Congress next week all the more difficult.

‘You would go down in history as one of the world’s greatest monsters.’

In BlazeTV host Matthew B. Kibbe’s deep-dive in the
first episode of the series, entitled “Dissident,” he speaks to Bhattacharya about the research agenda that set the stage for the deadly outbreak and assesses what was at stake for the powers that be — and for Fauci in particular — where narrative control was concerned.

“He’s in a tough position,” said Bhattacharya. “If people understand that what has happened the last three-and-a-half years in the COVID pandemic is potentially, maybe even actually, a result of this kind of research agenda and Fauci was one of its champions, he is in a very tough spot.”

“Millions and millions of people have died. Economies have been devastated,” continued Bhattacharya. “The poor of the world, children, vulnerable people have been hurt by this mad science experiment. … You would go down in history as one of the world’s greatest monsters.”

Later in the episode, Bhattacharya discusses the nature of the infrastructure shoring up the deadly research agenda as well as the possible link between officials’ cognizance of a possible lab leak and the draconian COVID protocols they ultimately promoted.

Extra to speaking to Dr. Bhattacharya and Sen. Paul in the series, in subsequent episodes, Kibbe gleans troubling insights from White House Coronavirus Task Force insiders about the early commitment to the zoonotics origin narrative, from journalists censored for asking questions, and from those working to hold the apparent architects of the pandemic responsible in its aftermath.

‘They want us to just move on.’

Kibbe told Blaze Media, “Free the People produced ‘The Coverup’ to shine light on the shadowy government figures who caused so much pain and suffering with their tyrannical overreach during the pandemic. They would rather we not uncover what really happened. They want us to just move on.”

“Unfortunately for them, I’m not going to let that happen,” continued Kibbe. “As someone who has been fighting big government for most of my career, this fight is the most crucial one. I want to expose their unethical motives and wildly dangerous actions and figure out who really pulls the strings behind the curtain of the pandemic industrial complex. Because they’re not going to stop. The power is too intoxicating.”

“This investigative series from Blaze Media and Free the People will arm alarmed citizens with the truth, and that’s the one thing shadowy bureaucratic schemers like Anthony Fauci cannot withstand — exposure to sunlight,” added series’ host.

‘The Coverup’ exposes Fauci and his cabal’s lies about the COVID-19 pandemic

Beginning in March 2020, governments, academics, social media companies, mainstream media, power-hungry bureaucrats, and globalists colluded to drive the narrative of the COVID-19 epidemic. Anyone, whether a concerned citizen, a democratically elected politician, or even a distinguished epidemiologist, going against that narrative needed to be silenced and discredited as quickly as possible.

That same cabal, led by people such as former NIAID director Anthony Fauci, has spent years lying, obfuscating, and avoiding consequences for its actions. The members can hide no more.

‘That’s the one thing shadowy bureaucratic schemers like Anthony Fauci cannot withstand — exposure to sunlight.’

Armed with the facts, BlazeTV host Matt Kibbe and his team at Free the People have spent months investigating the origins of the COVID-19 virus and the extreme lengths to which the government, the media, academics, and public health bureaucrats went to prevent anyone from so much as questioning the official narrative.

On Thursday, May 30, Blaze Media released the first episode in a new docuseries, “The Coverup,” hosted by Kibbe and produced by Free the People. Part political thriller, part true crime investigation, “The Coverup” sheds light on the dissident voices that the corporate media, at the behest of government, tried to silence.

Kibbe told Blaze Media, “Free the People produced ‘The Coverup’ to shine light on the shadowy government figures who caused so much pain and suffering with their tyrannical overreach during the pandemic. They would rather we not uncover what really happened. They want us to just move on.” He added, “Unfortunately for them, I’m not going to let that happen.”

Kibbe continued, “As someone who has been fighting big government for most of my career, this fight is the most crucial one. I want to expose their unethical motives and wildly dangerous actions and figure out who really pulls the strings behind the curtain of the pandemic industrial complex. Because they’re not going to stop. The power is too intoxicating.”

“They will stop at nothing to demonize and destroy anyone brave enough to ask the right questions. This investigative series from Blaze Media and Free the People will arm alarmed citizens with the truth, and that’s the one thing shadowy bureaucratic schemers like Anthony Fauci cannot withstand — exposure to sunlight,” Kibbe concluded.

The series features insights from infectious disease experts who authored the Great Barrington Declaration, pushing back against the wisdom and efficacy of lockdowns. You’ll hear stories from inside the White House Coronavirus Task Force about why the president’s advisers were so committed to the natural origin explanation of the virus. Journalists will explain why they were silenced on social media for attempting to do their jobs, asking questions instead of marching in lockstep with the administration’s talking points. And the lone senator who has dared to demand accountability and transparency from his colleagues, Sen. Rand Paul of Kentucky, will describe the steps he’s taking to get to the bottom of the COVID cover-up and to hold those responsible accountable.

On Monday, Anthony Fauci will appear once again before a congressional committee and try to deflect, deny, and delay any accountability he should face for his actions during the pandemic. On May 30, you can begin to arm yourself with the facts to fight back against his false narrative.

The first episode of “The Coverup” will premiere on Thursday, May 30, on BlazeTV and features Stanford University medical professor Dr. Jay Bhattacharya, the man Anthony Fauci and his sidekick Francis Collins dismissed as a “fringe epidemiologist.”

“The Coverup” is available exclusively on BlazeTV. If you aren’t a BlazeTV+ subscriber, visit FauciCoverup.com and use code FauciLied for $30 off your first year of BlazeTV+.

Don Lemon gets called out hard for still shilling for vaccines and COVID regulations

Don Lemon has stayed true to his colors and is still shilling for the media and the government — despite losing his coveted gig on CNN.

He made this clear in an interview on “The Full Send Podcast,” where the Nelk boys confronted him with some basic facts about the government’s disastrous COVID policies.

“There’s a certain set of people that no matter what evidence is put in front of them as it pertains to COVID or as it pertains to the border or the economy or anything else — they will still run defense for the system,” Dave Rubin of “The Rubin Report” explains, before showing the embarrassing clip.

One of the Nelk boys accused Lemon of being like Cuomo, very pro- “take the thing, do it,” about vaccines.

“This whole argument about vaccines is a little weird to me because I think people are Monday-morning quarterbacking the idea of vaccines,” Lemon responded sheepishly, adding he thought that “instead of being selfish” people should have been “doing what was best for our fellow man.”

“So, I think that the people who are questioning the use of masks, even in the moment, were being a bit selfish,” Lemon said, before repeating the commonly heard line that “there was no medical evidence that ivermectin could help save people from getting COVID, or prevent them from getting COVID, or had any effect on the COVID-19 vaccine.”

“I believe in medicine, I believe in science, and I believe that my government is looking out for me and trying to do the best for me,” Lemon continued.

“Shouldn’t other people have the right to not take the vaccine and not forced to put something in their body that they didn’t want?” the other Nelk boy asks, adding, “It seemed at the time like media was really shaming people if you didn’t get a vaccine, like it’s your fault.”

“Well, I don’t know if the media was shaming people,” Lemon responded. “If you don’t get the vaccine, then don’t get the vaccine, but don’t expect to be able to do and go places,” he continued before being cut off.

“Like make a living, right?” one of the boys asked.

“I’ve watched that clip a couple of times, and it gets worse each time. I mean, he is on his knees blowing a system that literally fired him,” Rubin comments, shocked.

‘I believe my government is looking out for me’: Don Lemon defends COVID response, online censorship in Nelk Boys interview

Former network host Don Lemon was pressed on his positions about the government’s COVID-19 response, online censorship, and the views he expressed as a host on CNN.

Lemon sat down with personalities Kyle Forgeard and Aaron “Steiny” Steinberg from the Nelk Boys, as well as entrepreneur Bradley Martyn for the “Full Send Podcast” that saw tougher questioning than audiences would see on most network news broadcasts.

Lemon faced significant pushback from Martyn and Forgeard regarding his stances on the COVID-19 vaccines and the spread of online “misinformation.”

The former CNN anchor’s position was that he predominantly believed that the information given by vaccine advocates, health officials, and the government was generally in good faith and had the goal of saving “the most amount of people.”

“Did they make mistakes along the way? Absolutely, but that’s life,” Lemon said. The 58-year-old explained that he thought not getting vaccinated or not wearing a mask was “selfish” and that citizens should have been doing what was best for their fellow man.

‘I paid $2,000 for a fake [vaccine card].’

Martyn pushed back, however.

“The COVID vaccine is here now, take it,” Martyn summarized the overarching narrative as. “Listening to [Chris] Cuomo speak and what other people are talking about now, they knew there was other methods that people could have done, Ivermectin was one of them.”

“I believe in medicine, I believe in science, and I believe my government is looking out for me and trying to do the best for me,” Lemon replied. “Scientists, doctors … if virologists are telling me that this vaccine is safe, and Ivermectin has no effect on the virus, then I’m going to take the vaccine.”

Lemon then disagreed with Forgeard when he said the media was shaming people if they weren’t vaccinated and that deaths were then the fault of the unvaccinated.

“I think the people were being selfish about that. If you don’t want to get the vaccine then don’t get the vaccine, but don’t be expected to be able to do and go places where people are who got the vaccine.”

“And work, and make a living, right?” Martyn interjected. “Couldn’t you have seen that the whole legacy media was saying, ‘You need this,’ and to a lot of people it was like, ‘Is this just about protecting and helping people or this about Big Pharma and big business?'”

Lemon called that a “conspiracy theory” and again cited that the virus was “something nobody knew about, something that was new and that was killing people.”

After Forgeard and Martyn revealed they did not get vaccinated, and Lemon did, Forgeard noted that he obtained a fake vaccine card.

“I paid $2,000 for a fake one.”

‘Me, personally, it’s not for me to decide, but I think there is an inherent advantage when someone plays in a women’s sport and perhaps they are stronger.’

Limiting ‘misinformation’

“This was an usual time in the entire world, we don’t live in that time now, and things have eased up,” Lemon said about online censorship, excusing the removal of opinions he said would have been misinformation.

Martyn pointed out that while Lemon was able to go on network television shows and talk about his opinion on the matter, content creators, himself included, literally could not go online and express countering opinions.

“Some people knew, but they were silenced,” Martyn continued. “I can accept [that it’s over] but … it’s about the people whose lives were ruined, you can’t just go, ‘It’s over sorry, it’s different now.'”

Lemon then tried to compare ruined lives from COVID lockdowns to those who were put in jail for smoking pot.

“I think if people are spreading misinformation and lies … I believe in freedom of speech, but I think if people are actively spreading misinformation that’s going to hurt people and if it’s going to put their lives or safety and their health at risk then I think it should be corrected,” he added.

“It’s just so impossible to find misinformation at such an early stage of a virus, too. Who decides what’s misinformation?” Forgeard countered.

Transgender theory

The topic shifted to transgender athletes playing against women, with Steinberg noting that women had a “spectacular year” in sports, only for the South Carolina women’s basketball coach to state that men should be able to play in women’s basketball.

“Do you think biological men should be able to play in women’s sports?” Forgeard asked Lemon directly.

“I think that it should be studied, but I do think …” Lemon replied.

“What are you studying?” Forgeard asked.

“Physically, men are stronger and faster than women. So, I have questions about it myself. Me, personally, it’s not for me to decide, but I think there is an inherent advantage when someone plays in a women’s sport and perhaps they are stronger,” Lemon clarified.

The answer mirrored many of the former CNN host’s replies, which were appeals to authority whether it referred to doctors, health officials, educators, and more.

The latter was used when he was asked about children being taught gender theory in school.

“I don’t think there’s anything wrong with kids having knowledge,” he said about children, citing that he was not an educator, so it wasn’t his place to say.

Forgeard asked if that included telling children “they can be whatever gender they want.” Lemon compared it to being told that he could be Superman when he was a child.

“We all had very similar things told to us,” Lemon retorted.

“Career-wise, not gender-wise,” Forgeard clarified.

“I don’t believe as a whole that kids are being indoctrinated into anything,” Lemon said, citing that he went to Catholic school and still was gay.

The podcasters also asked Lemon to clarify what LGBTQ+ stood for and why gays are grouped in with transgender people. Forgeard remarked Lemon’s explanation was easier to understand than that of a transgender person.

“I think the gay people are better spokesman for the trans people, because the trans people are not that good at defending their own issues.”

“It takes a gay person to come in and really defend them logically.”
