Corrupt Corporate Media Finally Admits Coronavirus Probably Came From A Communist Chinese Lab

New York Magazine just became the first of the corporate media to acknowledge that the COVID-19 virus, which plagued the world for most of 2020, may have originated from a laboratory in Wuhan, China.

While many corrupt publications hounded conservatives and U.S. officials for spreading the same Chinese lab information earlier in the year, the magazine article received no backlash from the media for stating that there is a “reasonable chance” that a scientific experiment, created and designed in the lab to help prevent other respiratory viruses, could have likely escaped into the public due to an accident.

As a matter of fact, the corporate media did not even make a peep about the article’s explanation for how U.S. money, resources, and even scientists such as Dr. Anthony Fauci were involved in funding, informing, and encouraging this research, and how the federal government and Chinese scientists were concerned about the Wuhan lab in particular, even before a hint of the 2020 pandemic.

Many publications and networks originally downplayed concerns in early 2020 that the virus was created and then released from a lab in China, not contracted through a wet market, despite the fact that those concerns were coming from U.S. officials such as deputy national security adviser Matthew Pottinger and Arkansas Republican Sen. Tom Cotton.

“There is a growing body of evidence that the lab is likely the most credible source of the virus,” Pottinger said recently. “Even establishment figures in Beijing have openly dismissed the wet market story,” he continued.

Pottinger first began to raise concerns about the virus’s origins in January 2020, encouraging U.S. intelligence officials to investigate. Shortly after, Cotton began to sound the alarm about COVID-19’s beginnings in a Wall Street Journal opinion editorial outlining a new government investigation into the Chinese lab, which may have created and housed it. In the article, Cotton explained that China swiftly covered up any evidence about the lab and the coronavirus’s origins.

“Beijing has claimed that the virus originated in a Wuhan ‘wet market,’ where wild animals were sold. But evidence to counter this theory emerged in January,” he wrote.

It was at this point that the corrupt media corporations targeted Cotton for allegedly spreading what they claimed to be “conspiracy theories” with “zero evidence” about COVID-19, citing and amplifying “experts” and “scientists” who condemned the information.

117 State Legislators From Contested Battleground States Ask VP Pence to Delay Certification of Electoral Votes

More than 100 state legislators from contested key states asked Vice President Mike Pence to delay the certification of electoral votes by 10 days.

The state lawmakers are asking for more time to investigate voter fraud and irregularities to determine whether the election results for Joe Biden should be decertified.

Article II Clause 1 Section 2 of the Constitution gives state legislatures plenary power to choose which electors are sent to Congress.

“We intend on fulfilling our oaths of office by properly investigating and determining whether the election should be certified, or decertified, by our respective state legislatures,” the lawmakers wrote in a letter to Pence. “Additional time must be afforded for the legislatures to meet and for state legislators to fulfill their constitutional duties.”

Just The News reported:

While Pence has said he supports lawmakers who are concerned about the conduct of the November election, he has not indicated whether he’d be willing to go as far as delaying counting votes from states like Wisconsin, Michigan, Georgia, Arizona and Pennsylvania or whether such a manuever would be deemed constitutional by the Supreme Court.

Nonetheless, the 11th hour letters from state legislators added to a growing momentum among Republicans to contest Joe Biden’s declared election victory.

“We write to ask you to comply with our reasonable request to afford our nation more time to properly review the 2020 election by postponing the January 6th opening and counting of the electoral votes for at least 10 days, affording our respective bodies to meet, investigate, and as a body vote on certification or decertification of the election,” one letter to Pence signed by 88 state Republican legislators read. “This action can be completed prior to the inauguration date, as required by the Constitution.”

That letter attached an appendix listing irregularities and illegalities in the battleground states where Trump has contested the election results showing Biden the winner.

The appendix, the lawmakers wrote, “provides evidence of a coordinated and structured multi-state effort to undermine state law protecting election integrity.”

That letter was organized by a 501(c)(4) group called Got Freedom after state legislators had a private call with Trump over the weekend to brief the president on their concerns. The group said the legislators asked it to organize a single letter for many to sign.

Elon Musk Calls Chinese Government "More Responsible" To Its Citizens Than U.S.

Literally hours before it was reported that Alibaba' Jack Ma has apparently been missing for the last two months, another well-known businessman relying on the resources of the Chinese state took an opportunity in an interview to call China "more responsible" than the U.S.

That businessman is none other than the U.S.'s "boy wonder" visionary, Elon Musk.

Musk - who had previously said that "China rocks" while taking a backhanded swipe at the U.S. workers as complacent - said during a new interview that China's government had been "very responsive" to its people's needs and happiness and suggested they could be "better" than the U.S., according to Express UK. China could be "more responsible" to people's happiness than the U.S., Musk said.

Musk said in the interview that working with Chinese government officials was a "positive experience". He said: “When I meet with Chinese government officials, they're always very concerned about this. Are people going to be happy about a thing? Is this going to actually serve the benefit of the people? It seems ironic, but even though you have sort of a single-party system, they really actually seem to care a lot about the well-being of the people. In fact, they're maybe even more sensitive to public opinion than what I see in the US.”''

Stockpiles Of 2×6 Lumber, Propane Tanks Surface On D.C. Streets Ahead Of Jan. 6 Stop The Steal Rally

The lumber and propane bear a striking resemblance to materials used in Black Lives Matter and Antifa riots

Video footage captured on the streets of Washington, D.C. Tuesday afternoon shows the bizarre presence of a 2×6 plank lumber cache and a locked stockpile of propane tanks on a deserted sidewalk ahead of Wednesday’s highly anticipated January 6 Stop the Steal rally.

The footage was captured by a Trump supporter named Tina, and has rapidly gained attention on social media.

In the video, the camerawoman points out the presence of two large locked yellow cages containing several dozen white propane tanks.

“Holy s**t, we’ve got 2x4s,” Tina says as another onlooker examines a pile of white 2×6 planks stacked next to the propane cache.

“2x6s,” the man announces upon further examination of the lumber.

“2x6s and propane tanks!” the camerawoman exclaims. “What the fk are these doing on the streets of D-fking-C?”

Now we find this on the streets of DC ! 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔 pic.twitter.com/zuqDgZQW0m

The variant of lumber seen in the footage bears a striking resemblance to the wooden staffs and planks historically used by far-left groups such as Antifa to club people with whom they disagree.

Propane can be used an accelerant for acts of arson, of the type often perpetrated by Black Lives Matter rioters and far-left anarchist militias.

Another cache of construction materials that was left out next to a work site has also drawn attention on social media.

This is DC by Freedom Plaza … they say it’s for construction work but it’s left out over night ! 🤔🤔 be aware patriots.. watch your 6 pic.twitter.com/ATjuafuq5w

Black Lives Matter and Antifa chapters have already voiced their intentions to confront Trump supporters in the streets of Washington, D.C. during Wednesday’s massive Stop The Steal rally, which will unfold parallel to the day’s Congressional vote on the electoral college.

Supporters of the President may already be at risk, as local officials have historically used law enforcement agencies to quash conservative protests while ignoring the violence of Black Lives Matter and Antifa.

The leader of the Proud Boys, a conservative fraternal organization that often tasks itself with providing security for vulnerable Trump supporters during events in D.C., was arrested this week and ordered by a judge to never set foot in the city again.
