Prominent NYC scientist backtracks on ‘natural origin’ of COVID-19
A prominent New York City microbiologist said Friday that “disturbing information” has led him to reverse course regarding his belief in the “natural origin” of COVID-19.
Peter Palese was among 27 scientists who signed an influential statement last year in the British scientific journal The Lancet that denounced as “conspiracy theories” the notion that the coronavirus could have escaped from a lab — or even be man-made.
But Palese — chairman of the Microbiology Department at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, where he runs a lab named after him — said he’s no longer convinced that’s the case.
“I believe a thorough investigation about the origin of the COVID-19 virus is needed,” Palese told the Daily Mail.
“A lot of disturbing information has surfaced since the Lancet letter I signed, so I want to see answers covering all questions.”
Palese declined to specify that information or say what led him to sign the Lancet statement, the Daily Mail said.
In the Lancet statement, the signatories expressed “solidarity with all scientists and health professionals in China,” and added: “We stand together to strongly condemn conspiracy theories suggesting that COVID-19 does not have a natural origin.”
On Thursday, Vanity Fair revealed that the statement was secretly organized by Peter Daszak, president of the nonprofit EcoHealth Alliance.
That organization gave nearly $600,000 in US taxpayer money to China’s Wuhan Institute of Virology, which conducts research on coronaviruses and is suspected of being the source of COVID-19.
In January, the State Department said the WIV has been collaborating on secret projects with China’s military since at least 2017.
Former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo has since said he’s “convinced” that COVID-19 was the result of a lab leak and accused the Chinese government of covering it up.

Is Grafting Dead Babies’ Scalps Onto Lab Rats Any Better Than Child Sacrifice?
The horrors of experimentation on aborted babies are too easily purged from our thoughts, but they should stoke our national conscience.
Child sacrifice strains the limits of moral relativity, yet too often abortion gets a pass. There are various arguments why, but at least it’s a debate. In contrast, most Americans are only semi-conscious of the use of aborted babies for medical experiments. Our tax dollars pay for it through the National Institutes of Health, but more often than not, we never hear about it.
In a recent Newsweek editorial, David Daleiden reminded the public that scientists at the University of Pittsburgh have been taking five-month-old aborted infants, cutting out their body parts, then grafting their scalps onto mice, or otherwise harvesting their organs for medical use. Our natural response is revulsion. For the sake of sanity, though, our momentary outrage is usually followed by forgetfulness.
It’s a difficult subject to contemplate, so most people don’t, at least for long. When Daleiden exposed similar abuses by Planned Parenthood back in 2015, very little changed. Most of us who heard about it simply recoiled in disgust and moved on.
Meanwhile, Daleiden faced felony eavesdropping charges for his undercover investigation and is still trying to appeal court orders to pay Planned Parenthood more than $15 million in damages and legal fees. Outside the activist community or his delighted detractors, his story goes largely untold.
Any gruesome practice done in the name of “medicine” is subject to the ethical scrutiny of experts, of course, but the experts are usually the ones conducting them. Most observers have no power over the situation — if they even know about it at all.
Similarly, most people rarely think about the dark acts occurring daily in abortion clinics, or the child sacrifices taking place today in Uganda, South Africa, and elsewhere. Effectively, these horrors exist outside the public’s moral framework.
Meanwhile, the horrors of abortion have become too normalized. A recent Pew poll found 59 percent of Americans support allowing abortion to remain legal while only 39 percent oppose it. That opposition is heavily skewed toward white evangelicals. Even among Catholic respondents, more than half favored legalization. As you’d expect, older generations are more concerned than young people, although the majority in every age bracket was pro-abortion.
I’m unaware of any public opinion polls on child sacrifice, but I think it’s fair to say almost no Americans would favor throwing infants onto temple fires — even for the benefit of the community. For one thing, few modern Americans believe the gods require human blood to make the crops grow or keep the sun on its course. Beyond that logical reasoning, though, we’re morally conditioned from childhood to believe human beings deserve better.
Part of the shift in attitudes toward “pregnancy termination” is due to pop science narratives. For instance, because a newly conceived embryo has not yet developed a nervous system with pain receptors, this living being is easily seen as a mere clump of cells. It takes real effort to imagine what the baby’s experience might be like, so it’s easy to pretend it has no soul.

Arizona Audit Begins to FINISH Hand Recount – 67%, 1.4 MILLION COMPLETED
The Arizona Audit has now counted 67% of the ballots! Two-thirds of the ballots have been counted and analyzed!
We have passed 1.4 MILLION BALLOTS COUNTED.
On Thursday night, the audit team started packing up the yellow tables. This is because they are now replacing these counting tables with forensic scanning tables, as they are soon coming to the end of the hand recount.
This is the first full forensic audit in history. The Maricopa Arizona Audit tweeted on Thursday:
As more forensics tables are added, already counted ballots will be scanned and processed at an even faster rate.
On Thursday The Gateway Pundit reported that the ballot count had surpassed 1.3 million ballots counted. Just one day later, that number has increased by 100,000. The pace is rapidly increasing but accuracy is still the top priority.

TikTok Goes For A Biometric Grab Of 66 Million US Users
TikTok quietly rolled out its new US privacy policy earlier this week, allowing the Chinese company to automatically "collect biometric identifiers and biometric information" from its users' content.
TechCrunch first pointed out the policy change introduced in the recently added section, "Image and Audio Information," located under the section titled "Information we collect automatically." It states:
"We may collect information about the images and audio that are a part of your User Content, such as identifying the objects and scenery that appear, the existence and location within an image of face and body features and attributes, the nature of the audio, and the text of the words spoken in your User Content. We may collect this information to enable special video effects, for content moderation, for demographic classification, for content and ad recommendations, and for other non-personally-identifying operations."
The most alarming part of the section is this bolded part:
"We may collect biometric identifiers and biometric information as defined under US laws, such as faceprints and voiceprints, from your User Content. Where required by law, we will seek any required permissions from you prior to any such collection."
"The statement itself is vague, as it doesn't specify whether it's considering federal law, states laws, or both. It also doesn't explain, as the other part did, why TikTok needs this data. It doesn't define the terms "faceprints" or "voiceprints." Nor does it explain how it would go about seeking the "required permissions" from users, or if it would look to either state or federal laws to guide that process of gaining consent," TechCrunch said.
Only three states (Illinois, Texas, and Washington) have laws protecting people from corporations collecting biometric data. The rest of the 47 states don't have any restrictions.
Perhaps former President Trump was right about TikTok when he attempted to ban the Beijing-based company because he said it was a "national security threat."
This week, President Biden restricted US investments in 59 Chinese companies tied to military and surveillance. Still, somehow, the administration continues to allow TikTok to operate.
This seems like a large-scale collection biometric grab of more than 66 million US users by the Chinese company. This is more dangerous than a password or credit card number being stolen because it cannot be undone. It will be too late until users and policymakers recognize and address the complex security that TikTok poses on national security.
