Last hour I ran through this latest report from Real Clear Investigations tracing the North Carolina connections to the origins of the pandemic in Chapel Hill. Richard Burr not that he was in the lab or anything. Let me get to some of these messages on the text line and they're want to move on to a related story as well as Jim comey. This is from Lee. Richard Burr singing after retur tirement, money for Barrett and a pandemic for free. So sorry I voted for this, do Cathy, says Pete. How dare anybody place blame on Barrick for the COVID virus? Everyone knows it was Trump's fault. He was also the cause of world War eleven, as elan Omar refers to it. Did you hear the SoundBite elan Omar reading, you know, a prepared speech of some kind, and there was a reference to World War two, but there was a Roman numeral too, and so because they obviously they you know, they used like the aerial font with no little feet on the eye, and so it was just like two lines. So she read it as World War eleven. Bain says, there's a reason why UNC is called the People's Republic of Chapel Hill. Stanley says, your highlight I something today that we don't need to let go without getting to the bottom of it. The most egregious part of COVID was the mandated vaccine to people under forty who faced a higher harm potential from it than the virus itself. And this was known at the time. Yeah, this is what That's what I mean. Like there's so many different elements and so for people, and it was like everybody wants to just collectively block out that two year period, like everybody's suffering from PTSD and now we just don't want. To talk about it. I don't want to talk about the trauma. Yeah, but there have been people who were harmed by that, and everybody just kind of you know, it's like it's almost like after Vietnam, like nobody, nobody wanted to discuss any of this, Like, oh, let's just not talk about that and then we'll. All just move on. Move on, as one liberals said to me in Twitter today, just move on. It was six years ago, ironically, the organization move On. You know, you know where they got their name from. It was during the Clinton era and they were telling Republicans to stop noticing that Bill Clinton is a letch. Let's just move on, David says. Rehashing all of this stuff that I knew about five to six years ago and had to endure years of gaslighting about is really starting to make me angry again. Well, here's the thing. We had suspicions. We are now getting the confirmation that we were correct. That's why it's important because now you can say, like this is now confirmed. We have the information, we have the emails, we have the slides, we have all of this stuff now that we did not have. We could connect certain dots, but those were still like hypotheses, right. I remember doing a story Jim Garrity did a lot of great work over at National Review during the pandemic. He was going through the want ads in Wuhan where they were advertising all of a sudden for a whole bunch of new people at the Wuhan Institute for Virology, like a lot of people just not working there anymore. He was pulling their LinkedIn profiles and stuff, and they weren't. They just kind of fell off the map. People just disappeared. When can we talk about Ray Cooper and the Duke lacrosse team, Well we can, but I would say that Roy comes out of that scandal as if he is because he was. He was the attorney general when he you know, removed and I think they disbarred what was the guy's name, Niphong, the da up there. Niphong was the real villain up there. Yeah, I remember that scandal. That was unreal anyway. So this is kind of related to the previous story. A former National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases employee. So this is the NIAI D, right, and this is what Fauci was in charge of. But this is a guy that worked for Fauci. Basically he is now facing federal indictment for his role in a scheme to evade Feyer requests in connection with COVID nineteen research grants. David Morens, seventy eight years old, of Chester, Maryland, is charged with conspiracy against the United States, destruction, alteration or falsification of records in federal investigations, concealment, removal or mutilation of records, and aiding and debtting. Morians served as a senior advisor in the NIAID's Office of the Director from six through twenty twenty two. Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche said, quote as alleged in the indictment, doctor Morins and his co conspirators deliberately concealed information and falsified records in an effort to suppress alternative theories regarding the origins of COVID nineteen. Government officials have a solemn duty to provide honest, well grounded facts and advice in service of the public interest, not to advance their own personal or ideological agendas. This is where I will point out that remember the remember the movie Dallas Buyer's Club with Matthew McConaughey, and he got AIDS and then he started going down to Mexico in order to get all of the drugs that would actually help people with HIV and aids. And then he set up the Buyer's club in order to get these drugs out into you know, the the to the patients. Right. And then of course, you know Gov CO comes after him for it because these are not FDA approved drugs. Right. The villain in that story was Anthony Fauci. They never named him, but he he was the like, he was the guy that pushed against those types of therapeutics. Okay, back to the statement here. This is from FBI Director Cash betel Well. He said, circumventing records protocols with the intention of avoiding transparency is something that will not be tolerated by this FBI. Not only did Morins allegedly engage in the illegal obfuscation of his communications, but he received kickbacks for doing so. If you have engaged in activity conspiring against the United States, we will not stop until you face justice. Okay. So now this is not just like, okay, well, this is not just like you know, playing hide the ball with research grant documents that would link Barrick and COVID and Wuhan Institute and all of that. Now, you're talking kickbacks too, So as senior advisor, Morins would counsel somebody who is listed in the indictment as NIAID Official one and other senior level staff. So who do you think Official one might be in this? Guess in Saint Fauci. Additionally, Morens gathered information from grantees and others in this scientific community to establish facts about the nature of COVID nineteen. This enabled him to understand NIH and NIAID's historical activities in coronavirus research. He helped craft the policy and procedures. He would brief Official one so then he could relay information to the President of the United States Congress and the public. Official one would again, I'm I'm pretty sure this is Fauci. According to the indictment, Morens, along with two conspirators and others, conspired during the pandemic to defraud and commit several offenses against the US. After NIH terminated co Conspirator number one's grant, NIH terminated the grant that was understanding the risk of that coronavirus emergence that was based on allegations that COVID nineteen emerged from the Wuhan Institute of Virology and IID had awarded the grant to Company number one and co conspirator number one who made a sub award over to the WIV. Right, so follow the money and IH and IID gives the money to company number one, which I'm going to go out on a lim and say that might be Eco Health Alliance because they then did the sub award to the WIV. That's my guess. Don't know if it's true because they're not named, but I'm pretty sure I remember following this money trail a couple of years ago, and this was known. Then they terminate the contract. Morins and conspirator number two pledged to help number one restore the termination of the that coronavirus grant and to counter the narrative that COVID nineteen leaked from a lab so it was twofold, restore their funding EcoHealth Alliance, I'm guessing, restore their funding, and also work to suppress the idea that this was a lab leak. In anticipation that their communications would be requested through a Foyer request, Morens, along with these two co conspirators, agreed in writing to intentionally hide from public view their communications, which is not something if you're gonna like why, like that should have been a phone call? Morons? Or is it morons that should have been a phone call, dude. The indictment alleges they used his personal Gmail account in order to circumvent Foyer requests. See, and that's the problem. It's a Gmail account and Google can go back and find those you know why, because Google owns the server. Unlike for example, Hillary Clinton, she didn't have an email account on Google or Yahoo or Aol, which would probably be more her speed. But no, she had a server. And that is the smoking gun. It has always been the smoking gun about her quote emails. It's not the emails, it was the server. Because when you own the server, you control it and you can wipe it like with a cloth, and all those emails get deleted. That doesn't happen when you use Gmail. As Morin's now seventy eight has just discovered, I'm not going to make a joke about his age and not knowing technology. I'm not going to do it. Not going to do it. You know, stories are powerful.

All right, So let's get back to the story here, because I want to know about the kickbacks. This guy Morin's top aid for I'm assuming he's not Fauci's not named, but he was the one doing direct communications with the President and the Congress and the public. So I'm assuming it's Fauci and so not only did he write, apparently in an email, hey let's take this to my private Gmail account, so this way we can avoid all Foyer. Requests and such. They apparently put that in writing someplace, to which Bain texts in and says, as Professor Charles Barkley says, if you're going to commit a crime, don't write a check. Don't write a check. That's good advice. So the indictment further alleges that Morens and co conspirator Ie conspired to pay illegal gratuities. I don't know if this is Dejack or Dad Jack, whatever's name is, head of Eco Health Alliance, but the indictment states conspirator number one gifted Morins whine for his quote b behind the scenes shenanigans, and arranged for its delivery to Morn's residence in Maryland. Morens then allegedly identified an official act that he could perform to quote deserve the gift, which was a scientific commentary in a prominent medical journal advocating that COVID nineteen had natural origins, that it did not come from a lab. All of this was about protecting their field of research. They were doing all of this stuff and it broke containment with one of their partners over in Wuhan. And they knew what this was going to spell for them because the last times that it, the last two times that this had happened, not broken containment, but the first time, as I went over in the first hour, like early twenty tens, twenty eleven, I think it was, some scientists developed like an airborne infectious flu or something, and it prompted outrage like what are you doing? Why are you doing this? They started clamping down on it, and then within a couple of weeks, a bunch of anthrax and what was it, to HIV or something. Samples were just left in a storeroom, and so that was like, okay, you guys are out of control, Like we got to clamp down, do new security, new guidelines, all of that stuff. They then the industry then lobbies. All these scientists are then lobbying, They get some new guidelines, they start all of their research back up, and then within what three years, two years, you have a pandemic based on their research. So they knew what this meant. Three strikes, You're done, and so he says, I'll write this. I'll write this commentary to advocate for the wet market theory. Try to get the heat off of the researchers. You guys totally didn't do it. The indictment further alleges that co conspirator number one suggested that he would provide Morens with additional things of value, including meals at Michelin starred restaurants in Paris, New York, and Washington, d C. If convicted, Morns faces a maximum penalty of five years in prison for conspiracy against the US, also a maximum penalty of twenty years in prison for each count of destruction, alteration, or falsification of records in federal investigations, and a maximum penalty of three years in prison for each count of concealment, removal, or mutilation of records. I don't know how many records this guy mutilated or concealed or removed or falsified or altered or destroyed, but that's a lot. Now, he's probably not going to get it. The actual sentences are typically less than the max. Right, he's also seventy eight years old, and he's been a lifelong public se servant. Right, he merely tried to cover up the origins of a global pandemic that killed twenty million people. Roughly, we don't know, right, because if you believe China's numbers, you're crazy. Because rule number one about comis they lie. So he probably won't get that. But at his age, at seventy eight, I mean, any amount of time in prison is basically the rest of his life already, from the uh Morin's indictment over to the indictment of former FBI director James Comy. This is a weaponization piece. The new case represents a reinvigorated effort to satisfy Trump's demands to investigate his own foes. This is, according to CNN, completely calling balls and strikes here, including Komy, who he sees as a key leader in the perceived effort to weaponize the justice system against him. Right, so, Trump sees Komy he as a key leader in a perceived effort to and they use the scare quotes on weaponize the justice system against. Him once again. There is a perfectly reasonable explanation for why Donald Trump and Trump supporters and a lot of Republicans and even some Democrats think that the DOJ was weaponized against Donald Trump. And that's because it was quite obviously weaponized against Donald Trump. That's how we arrived at that decision. Right, what was it for indictments? After he announced or right as he announced he was running for reelection? Right, they tried to take his entire empire, all of his money, throw him in jail, prevent him from running again. So you want to And that was just when he was going to run for reelection. While he was in office, they impeached him twice. Right, They threw sand in the gears, They made up the Russia collusion hoax. They went after his aids and such, went after his companies. So that's a weaponisation of the DOJ. We've covered it in depth over the years. This is over, This indictment is over. Jim Comey miraculously stumbling across on the beach of North Carolina find some seashells that just happened to be arranged into four numerals eighty six forty seven, And so he thought that was really interesting, and so he took a picture of it because somebody spelled out some letters or some numbers in the sand with some little shells, and I think it was him, and he said, cool, shell formation on my beach walk, and like people were like, oh, yeah, that's what that's what Democrats and like the radicals, they're all posting eighty six, forty seven all over the place because eighty six, like I knew it as a when I worked in restaurants. I knew it from restaurant life, which was when something was killed, something was removed from the menu, like if you had a certain number of you know, halibit or something and people came in and ordered it, and then there was no more of it, and then you would say, eighty six the halibit, so don't offer it anymore. Eighty six was you know, eliminate, remove, And so you don't know what people mean when they say eighty six. And this is how the Democrats and the media, but I repeat myself, this is how they play this game, which is to say eighty six just means simply to remove. We're just talking about impeachment, that's all. Or you know, will what was it that Peter Struck did when he said we won't let him in that text message to his lover Lisa Page right when she was like, I'm freaking out Trump's gonna win and he's like, no, he won't. We won't let him, And when asked about that text message under oath, he said, I meant we the American voters, and then he gave that little smug smile. We all know that's not what he meant. You won't let him because you are crafting this entire conspiracy to take him down. Supreme Court precedent has placed a high bar for convictions in threat cases like these, and former prosecutors and First Amendment scholars alike were highly skeptical the new prosecution would be successful. I would throw myself into that camp as well. I'm skeptical that this will be successful. Eugene Voloch, senior fellow at the Hoover Institution at Stanford University, specializes in First Amendment law. He said, this is not going anywhere. This is clearly not a punishable threat. It's likely to be an uphill battle for prosecutors, as the charges require proof that Comy quote knowingly and willfully made a threat to take the life of the president. Now, Komy did take that post down pretty quickly after everybody was like, well, you know, that's a threat to the president. He says, it never occurred to me, but I opposed violence of any kind, so I took the post down, so that would be his excuse to prove I didn't know that it had this meaning, and so as soon as I found out about it, I took it down. This is the second effort from Trump's doj September of to Indictcomy, right, they indicted him before they brought charges against him, accusing him of lying to Congress over leaks to the press. That case was dismissed on a technicality because the interim US attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia, a judge had said, was not properly appointed because they were not approved by the Senate. And so I believe that was what's her name, I keep thinking of Huma Aberdeen, but that's not correct. I forget her name, But she's one of Trump's lawyers, right, but in the private sector. And then she got this appointment, and then they kicked her off the case, and so it because of technicality, not the merits of the prosecution. Prosecutors would face an intent requirement right under recent Supreme Court precedent, they would have to show that Comby was aware that his message could make the recipient fearful and that he callously disregarded the risk it would be perceived in that way. Now, what's interesting here is that this may have ties to John Brennan's prosecution. So, first off, he has made changes. This is from Todd Blanche the acting Attorney General, having taken over for Pam Bondi, who got fired a couple of weeks ago. He has made changes to the prosecutors overseeing the investigation into former CIA director John Brennan, one of the most important cases to the President. Catherine Herridge, formerly of Fox News. She said the comy in Diamond is thin, but it creates leverage and may be a holding charge. The Komy indictment drops as former CIA director Brennan investigation in Florida enters its final chapter. Brennan was a driving force behind the Russia collusion narrative. Recently, he complained to miss Now formerly MSMEC about weaponization and he says, this is to harass me, to try to hurt individuals reputationally, professionally, and financially. We have people in government who seem to be so mean spirited that they try to hurt individuals, people, family and others. Pot Meat Kettle right, Like, I have no sympathy for these guys after what we know they did to Trump and everybody in his orbit in order to undermine his presidency and to then try to get him locked up. So I have no sympathy for these guys. But I don't think the Koma indictment's gonna I don't think it's going to go anywhere. Thank you. On the WBT text line, it was Alina Habah, I believe is the name, But now I also saw somebody else, Lindsay Halligan. I'm not so. I'm not sure. Now, maybe Haba was a different district, but I know Democrats kept picking off all of these US attorneys that Trump was appointing because they didn't want to go through the Senate confirmation hearings because you got people like Thom Tillis up there that's blocking everybody for unrelated reasons. Okay, So this is from the Hellian who says, I think Brennan is a must conviction and real jail time. Ian says, as corrupt as Comy may well be. I don't see how the law can prove whether or not he wished Trump dead. Kevin says, oh good, drop the ridiculous attempted indictment of Jerome Powell and then find someone else to try to indict that Trump doesn't like. That'll go nowhere. Great use of our time and energy. Yeah, I think. I mean, here's the thing, Okay, i'd I have no doubt. I shouldn't say no doubt. It is easy for me to believe that these indictments going out on these ringleaders of the Russia collusion hoax, the quote deep state conspiracy against Donald Trump. I find it very easy to believe that this is to make their lives a living hell, to make them fork out money to pay for defense, to tie them up in court, and all of that. Why Because Donald Trump told Megan Kelly all those years ago that when somebody wounds him, he punches back to unwound himself. And I have been saying this for years. If you want to kind of get into the mind of Donald Trump and why he behaves like that, that is a really good. Sort of landmark for you. It is for me. When people come at him, he will then go after them because he thinks it quote unwounds him, which is not how wounds work. Right. You can't you if you cut me and then I cut you. My cut doesn't go away, right, we both have cuts now. So I guess in Trump's you know mind, in his philosophy, this is how he does payback, and you cannot like it. I don't like it in a lot of cases. Most cases, I don't like it. But here's my problem, and I've been saying this for a very long time. I don't know how to teach democrats and deep staters and media. I don't know how to teach them not to do these things, right, the weaponization of the entire federal intel agencies and DJ against Donald Trump. Like, I don't know how you teach them not to do that without picking up their own weaponization and using it against them. Because US just saying, hey, guys, like you're blowing through all of the norms here and all your cases, you know, fall apart and all of this, and like you did these things that were completely unethical, probably illegal. You doctored all these documents in order to get your warrants. Like the list goes on and on and on, and us saying you shouldn't do that, it doesn't stop them from doing it. And so I don't know another way, And I'm super frustrated about it. But like I'm just being honest, I don't know another way. It's like any bully, right, they don't stop bullying you because you appeal to their better angels. That's not what motivates them. So, like, I don't like it any more than you. I don't. I don't think the Komby indictment is going to go anywhere. I have no problem believing that it was done, you know, for political personal reasons. I don't have a problem. Do I think that's right? I do not. But again, how do you make this stop? Right? How do you make it stop? We're we're pleading with Democrats, like yesterday, the day before Sunday. Democrats. You guys keep saying these things and you're inspiring violence against conservatives and they just say no or not there's no connection. But they but what about Trump? What about Trump's language? Right? So I don't know. I don't know how to how to, you know, stop them from doing these things that like, And you can't tell me that they did not weaponize the federal government against Donald Trump. We all saw it. We all saw it. Brad Slager at Red State. He was responding to a post that Terry Moron made uh. He's formerly of ABC. He was the guy that got dropped from ABC after he sent out the tweet talking about Stephen Miller, who called him a man who was ritually endowed with the capacity for hatred. He's a world class hater. You could just see this by looking at him, because you can see that his hatreds are his spiritual nourishment. He eats his hate. Trump is a world class hater, but his hatred only is a means to an end's and that end is his own glorification. That's his spiritual nourishment. This was an anchor at ABC, and then ABC was like, yeah, that's a violation of our journalistic standards. You're not getting renewed and they dropped him, which, if you go to the Wikipedia page, was Terry Moran fired. No, he wasn't. They just didn't renew his contract at the same time that he made that tweet. So Terry Moran is out there saying this is fundamentally Unamerican. The relentless pursuit by the doj of one citizen at the demand of the president because of the president's personal animosity is something our country has never seen. We did see it, We saw it in twenty fifteen, twenty sixteen, twenty seventeen, twenty eighteen, twenty nineteen, twenty twenty twenty one, twenty two, twenty three, and twenty four. Brad Slager says, would you call four indictments leveled against one citizen in the span of months just curious? Like, unless maybe you've been out of the country or in a medical coma for the last three years. All right, that'll do it for this episode. Thank you so much for listening.
