In what might be the understatement of the decade, Congress has confirmed that U.S. tax dollars WERE sent to fund risky gain-of-function research at the Wuhan Institute of Virology in China – an institution that apparently thought biosafety was just a suggestion.
The cherry on top? A few researchers there reportedly got sick right before the pandemic exploded. Sounds coincidental, right? Or maybe just the plot of every sci-fi thriller ever. Yes, it looks like the pandemic started there. Who knew? Anyone with a brain, that’s who.
The 520-page Covid report that was released by a U.S. House investigative panel this week sheds a lot of light on the truth of what happened during the pandemic that most of us already knew or suspected to be true.
Fraud Olympics: How COVID funds became the criminals’ jackpot (not to mention governments)
While Americans were told to “flatten the curve,” fraudsters were busy flattening government coffers. According to the report, at least $64 billion in Paycheck Protection Program funds were pilfered, and unemployment fraud exceeded $191 billion. If fraud were a sport, this pandemic would have been the gold medal round. And let’s not forget all of the “free” money sent around the country to state and local governments to pay for priorities of the Democratic party.
“Masks, mandates, and missteps, oh my!”
Turns out, the scientific basis for six-foot social distancing and mask mandates was actually NOT based in science. The report reveals flawed studies and inconsistent messaging from public health officials, leading to widespread mistrust. And yes, Dr. (Anthony) Fauci lied to us about just about everything.
Meanwhile, if you were reading MY articles during the beginning of the pandemic, you would have known:
- SARS droplets can travel up to 26 feet inside (apparently Fauci didn’t have access to Google) and…
- According to the data sheets on the initial vaccines, they were NOT intended to stop the spread of the virus or to “save” anyone from it. They were only intended to lessen the severity of the Covid cases.
But hey… what are facts when you are a Democrat and you can use the pandemic to control people, rig an election to get rid of Trump, shut down churches and do every leftist thing that you have ever dreamed up???
Covid insanity was the main entreé across the country in states and cities everywhere including vaccine mandates that got people fired, closing down restaurants, banning people from seeing their parents in nursing homes and hospitals, masking toddlers and many other disgusting and ridiculous things. But who needs logic when you have bureaucracy?
Lockdowns: the cure worse than the disease?
Remember when we turned off the economy, disrupted mental health, and stunted children’s development in the name of public health? The report confirms what many suspected: strict lockdowns caused massive collateral damage while failing to live up to their promises. As the saying goes, hindsight is 2020 – and so was the lack of foresight. Although truth be told, I’m sure the Democrats actually KNEW that a lot of what happened would happen. They just didn’t care.
Cuomo’s nursing home fiasco: a tragedy of errors. (Whitmer too).
Former Democratic Governor Andrew Cuomo’s now-infamous directive to send COVID-positive patients into nursing homes wasn’t just poor judgment – it was, as the report labels it, “medical malpractice.” Add in a cover-up of fatalities, and we’ve got ourselves a pandemic-era Shakespearean tragedy. That goes for Gretchen Whitmer too who did the same thing and was rewarded for it by being re-elected the governor of Michigan.
Never again.
The report’s lessons are as clear as they are exasperating: government mismanagement and overreach exacerbated the pandemic’s toll. From funding dubious research to misusing taxpayer money, the failures are monumental. If the next pandemic finds us unprepared again, it won’t be because we lacked warnings – it’ll be because we didn’t learn from them.

And learn from them we must. This time around, when the next pandemic happens, the people need to push back and not surrender their Constitutional freedoms – and not let the evil dictators rule over us with their corruption, lies and tyranny. We don’t need them telling us who is essential and which direction we can walk down a grocery aisle.
We should tell THEM which direction THEY can walk – and it’s out of our hair, out of our houses, out of our businesses and out of our lives.
