Amid New Calls for COVID Origin Probe, Lawmakers in US, Canada Scrutinize Use of Federal Resources in Wuhan Lab

Amid new calls for a transparent investigation into the origin of COVID-19, a parallel situation is unfolding in both Canada and the United States, where lawmakers are seeking clarity on how their federal resources provided to the Wuhan virology research facility were used.

In the United States, the controversy is around a US$3.7 million grant given by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) to the New York-based EcoHealth Alliance for “understanding the risk of bat coronavirus emergence,” of which US$600,000 was channelled to the Wuhan Institute of Virology (WIV) over a period of five years.

CIA victim of ‘Havana Syndrome’ blames Kremlin: ‘Russians are very aggressive’ against U.S. gov’t

Marc Polymeropoulos was a senior CIA case officer on a routine visit to Moscow in 2017 when he awoke in his hotel room with a severe case of vertigo.

His first inclination was that he had food poisoning and that the symptoms would soon wear off. Instead, it was the beginning of a brain-rattling affliction that would last for years and eventually force him out of the CIA.

Google removes diversity head after uncovering of ‘If I Were A Jew’ blog post

Google removed the head of its diversity team after a blog post about Jewish people resurfaced.

Kamau Bobb, whose LinkedIn page says he has been in the position since September 2018, “will no longer be part of [Google’s] diversity team going forward,” a Google spokesperson told the Washington Examiner on Thursday.

He still works for Google.

Liberals resort to race baiting to excuse coddling of Communist China

Justin Trudeau Xiangguo Qiu Keding Cheng – Everybody say Xi

Liberals, Tories take clashing views of China criticism as anti-Asian racism surges

OTTAWA — Liberals and Conservatives have stumbled into a thorny debate over fears that criticism of China can bleed into bigotry, as wariness of the global superpower rises alongside incidents of anti-Asian racism in Canada.

Tory MPs asked Justin Trudeau last week to respond to reports that scientists at a Winnipeg infectious-diseases laboratory had been collaborating with Chinese military researchers.

The LPC is a CCP lackey.

Most now believe China made virus and 24% say it was ‘released on purpose’

Most now believe China made virus and 24% say it was ‘released on purpose’

It’s taken over a year, but most people in the United States now agree with former President Donald Trump’s claim that the coronavirus was developed in China, and a quarter believe that it was “released on purpose” to infect the world.

In the latest Economist/YouGov survey, 58% believe that the COVID-19 virus was developed in a Wuhan, China, lab. That is up from 49% a year ago.

Don’t cry for me Bananada!

LILLEY: WE spent big to fly Sophie to U.K. for gig

The average Kenyan earns a little over $2,000 Canadian per year.

Think about that as you absorb the news that WE Charity spent the equivalent of nine people’s annual income to fly Sophie Trudeau and her daughter to London to speak briefly at a WE Day event in March 2020.

I am becoming convinced that a great many “charities” are scams.

Ontario reports 870 new Covid cases … and vaccine woes

Ontario reports 870 new COVID-19 cases; 10 more deaths

Ontario reported 870 new COVID-19 cases and 10 additional deaths on Thursday, as the number of known active infections across the province fell below 10,000 for the first time in nearly seven months.

GOLDSTEIN: Booking a second AstraZeneca dose is like The Hunger Games

To begin, I should tell you that I had my first dose of the AstraZeneca vaccine on March 31 at a neighbourhood pharmacy and that I can’t book my second— not get it, just book it — because of the lack of supply.

This so you’ll know where I’m coming from when I say that, between them, the Trudeau and Ford governments could not have screwed up the AZ rollout any worse if they’d tried.

Israel says ‘probable’ link between Pfizer COVID-19 shot, heart inflammation cases

Israel’s Health Ministry said on Tuesday it found the small number of heart inflammation cases observed mainly in young men who received Pfizer’s COVID-19 vaccine in Israel were likely linked to their vaccination.

Pfizer has said it has not observed a higher rate of the condition, known as myocarditis, than would normally be expected in the general population.

Big Tech Fights Florida Over Free Speech

“Free Speech is Censorship” and “Censorship is Free Speech.”

A few years ago the Computer and Communications Industry Association (CCIA) was demanding government regulations that would force internet providers to carry the content of members like Amazon, Google, Facebook, and Twitter. Now it’s suing Florida to fight regulations that would force some of those same members to carry the content of ordinary Americans.

The unbearable annoyingness of Pride

The rainbow flag has become the ultimate symbol of our me, me, me society.

I see the flag-shaggers are out in force. No, not working-class people who hang the Union flag from their living-room window as an expression of pride in their nation. I’m talking about the Pride flag. That omnipresent rainbow eyesore. A virtue-signal made cloth. The flag no one can escape. Yep, it’s Pride Month, which means that everywhere you go for the next four weeks – the bank, the supermarket, Maccy D’s – you’ll have this flag waved in your face to remind you not to be such a horrible, homophobic piece of shit. Happy Pride Month!

Google Diversity Head Said Jews Have ‘Insatiable Appetite for War’

Google’s head of diversity strategy said in a 2007 blog post that Jews have an “insatiable appetite for war” and an “insensitivity to the suffering [of] others.” The comments were part of a longer meditation from Kamau Bobb, now head of diversity strategy at Google, that also slammed Israel’s military actions in Gaza and Lebanon that same year.

Bobb was at the time a research associate in technology at Georgia Tech, according to his LinkedIn. The post, titled “If I Were A Jew,” described how he believed Jewish people should view the Middle East conflict.

China’s Grand Theft

It will do whatever is necessary to become the world’s leading superpower, including engaging in a global campaign of economic espionage.

Grand theft auto is a persistent crime in America, a felony in most states with jail sentences up to 10 years and a fine of $10,000, depending upon the value of the car and any valuables left inside. Car theft is a lucrative pursuit. Thieves steal an average of 2,400 vehicles a day for a grand total of around 873,000 stolen cars in 2020, a 9 percent increase over the previous year. It is a telling sign of our times that one of the most popular action/adventure games is Grand Theft Auto, with over 280 million units sold. Now imagine a gang of thieves organized to steal not our cars and trucks and RVs but an invaluable national resource: our research and development in modern technology.

And the many Quisling enablers of our “China Class” are willing accomplices.

Patrisse Cullors will have the last laugh

The Black Lives Matter founder could give expert-level classes on the victimhood mentality

Patrisse Cullors co-founded Black Lives Matter on faux victimhood. In her Thursday announcement that she would be resigning from the organization, she once again demonstrated what she does best.

For those unfamiliar, Cullors has been the subject of negative headlines for the past few months. Her Marxist street cred first came under fire when reports surfaced in April that she had gone on a luxury home-buying spree totaling $3.2 million.
