Actually, she would never have existed at all. There is no way that each of her descendants would have met up with each other to produce the same sets of offspring that ultimately produced her.

Good News Friday


Dear Patriots,


The Republicans have managed to salvage enough seats in the US Congress to gain power, not by much but enough.
Republican members wasted no time in announcing various investigations into Hunter Biden, his father, Fauci, and much of the Biden Regime.

This is all good news!

Key House investigator fears feds used grants as hush money to keep COVID origins quiet

QUOTE: The top Republican House investigator says his team has uncovered evidence suggesting federal health officials used grant dollars to keep private scientists on script and have them deny COVID-19 originated with a lab accident despite scientific evidence to the contrary.

Rep. James Comer (R-Ky.), the likely chairman of the House Oversight Committee if the GOP wins control of the House, told Just the News on Monday night that his investigators have evidence showing that even though Dr. Anthony Fauci was warned the virus likely originated from a lab leak in Wuhan, China, he constructed, with the aid of federally funded private scientists, a counternarrative that COVID-19 evolved naturally from animals.

"Everyone in the medical community backed up Dr. Fauci, and what we now know is they were receiving a lot of grant dollars," Comer said Monday during a wide-ranging interview on the "Just the News, No Noise" television show.

Comer said his investigators have obtained documents showing that on Feb. 1, 2020 Fauci and his boss, NIH Director Dr. Francis Collins, and at least eleven other scientists convened a conference call to discuss COVID-19. On that call, Fauci and Collins were first warned that COVID-19 may have leaked from the Wuhan Institute of Virology and may have been intentionally genetically manipulated.

Four days earlier, Comer said, Fauci was alerted that his own National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases had funded an American research firm known as EcoHealth Alliance, that the Wuhan Institute of Virology in China was a subgrantee of EcoHealth, and EcoHealth was not in compliance with its grant reporting, in particular a grant that NIAID knew had gain-of-function potential on novel bat coronaviruses.

"We uncovered the emails that showed Dr. Fauci's earliest advisers said that this is obviously a lab leak, and this has to be man-made," the Kentucky Republican added. "We also showed where Dr. Fauci and Dr. Collins at the NIH were talking about trying to spin the lab leak theory, that they were really concerned about the optics of that. What we learned is how much slush money the NIH had to award in the form of grants to these advisers."

Comer said he fears the complicity of the private scientists helped Fauci seize a narrative to justify massive health lockdowns and thwart an earlier investigation of what role a U.S.-funded lab in Wuhan, China played in the pandemic.

"So you have someone like Dr. Fauci that had complete control over the entire pandemic," he said. "And his advisers and all these medical experts were signing on to everything, essentially giving him a blank check to say whatever he wanted to say, to shut down whatever industry he wanted to shut down, to make our kids have to go virtual instead of in person. And the whole time they were receiving grants from Dr. Collins and Dr. Fauci."

NIH did not immediately respond to a request for comment Monday night. Fauci long shut down the possibility of a lab leak, but U.S. intelligence has since said a lab accident is a likely source of the virus. And Fauci recently told Congress he's keeping an open mind that he was wrong.

Comer laid out a wide-ranging investigative agenda for the committee if he becomes chairman, saying he was committed to finding way to end the waste of tax dollars, especially in the areas of research science and COVID relief aid, which some estimates show may have lost $400 billion to fraud and waste.

"In the name of COVID, Congress has lost its mind over the past three years," he said. "The trillions of dollars that have been wasted is mind-boggling."

Comer said his committee would be empowered under GOP rules so that he, as chairman, could unilaterally issue subpoenas to compel documents and testimony without having to get a committee vote, where Democrats and recalcitrant Republicans could block investigations.

"I don't have to get permission from anyone to issue a subpoena," he explained. "I take that responsibility greatly. I'm not going to abuse that, because I think it's been abused in the past. But we are going to get some accountability for the taxpayers and the American people in this administration. We're going to do it on day one in January."

QUOTE: House Republicans announced on Thursday that they will investigate serial liar and crook Joe Biden.

Rep. Jame Comer (Oversight Committee Ranking Member): We're releasing a report today that details what we've uncovered. We're also sending letters to Biden Administration officials and Biden family associates renewing our request for voluntary production of documents relevant to this investigation. This is an investigation of Joe Biden. And why he lied to the American people about knowledge and participation in his family's international business schemes.

Joe Biden told reporters this week an investigation into his family is "almost comedy."

Watchdog sues govt. for Covid vaccine safety study info

QUOTE:
Judicial Watch says it wants to know why the Biden administration is hiding information about the safety of Covid vaccines-- vaccines the government has aggressively promoted and even mandated.

Public health agencies continually state that the Covid vaccines are safe and effective, yet the agencies and vaccine makers have not released important information that would substantiate the claims. In fact, most of the data that's been made public is the result of Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuits by watchdog groups, non-profit organizations, and independent scientists.

Judicial Watch has filed a new lawsuit for information after the National Institutes of Allergies and Infectious Diseases (a component of HHS) inadequately responded to a June 1, 2022

Judicial Watch accuses the Biden administration is playing shell games with documents on Covid vaccines saying that the administration's inadequate response and inability to produce the requested vaccine safety documents further undermines public confidence in these already highly controversial drugs.

Fired Referees Sue NBA Over Vaccine Mandate, as Djokovic Cleared to Play in Australian Open

QUOTE: Three former National Basketball Association referees this week sued the league alleging they were fired for refusing to receive COVID-19 vaccines on religious grounds. Meanwhile, Australian officials will allow Novak Djokovic, previously barred from the country for refusing the COVID-19 vaccine, to play in the Australian Open in January.

The lawsuit alleges the "jab or job ultimatum" instituted by the league for the 2021-2022 season — and which was not applicable to players — led to their suspensions for that season.

Then, despite the NBA's decision to rescind the mandate for the 2022-2023 season, the league fired them.

The plaintiffs are requesting a jury trial, compensatory damages and punitive damages for front and back pay, emotional pain and suffering, reputational damage and attorneys' fees.

Meanwhile, one prominent athlete who was barred from several high-profile competitions this year due to his unvaccinated status reportedly will be allowed to compete in next year's edition of one such competition.

Serbian tennis star Novak Djokovic, who previously held the world's No. 1 ranking, was barred for three years from entering Australia just prior to the 2022 Australian Open because he refused to get the COVID-19 vaccine.

Woke Disney's Stock Gets Absolutely Decimated, Worst Day In 21 Years

QUOTE: The Walt Disney Company saw the worst stock price loss since 2001 on Friday. The company has been struggling and suffering losses with its Disney+ streaming service and courted serious controversy and withering criticism from the Star Wars and Marvel fanbases for terrible creative decisions.

The corporate officers of Disney have assured their anxious investors that an upcoming price increase, amidst a recession and an inflationary crisis that is crushing entertainment budgets, and an 'ad-tier' that offers limited content with advertising will stop the financial bleeding according to Axios.

As reported by Breitbart however, this would not be the case. Disney's stock would plunge a further 13 percent on Nov. 9, contributing to the overall loss of 44 percent year to date.

GOP operative pardoned by Trump convicted of funneling Russian money to Trump campaign

Jesse Benton in 2012

Jesse Benton, a former top aide to Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.), Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.), and former Rep. Ron Paul (R-Texas), was convicted Thursday of helping a Russian citizen illegally funnel a political donation to former President Donald Trump's 2016 presidential campaign. Benton, 44, purchased a $25,000 ticket to a September 2016 Republican National Committee event for Trump and gave the ticket to Russian multilevel marketer Roman Vasilenko. Vasilenko then gave Benton $100,000.
Elections "reflect the values and the priorities and the beliefs of American citizens," Assistant U.S. Attorney Michelle Parikh said at Benton's trial this week. "Jesse Benton by his actions did damage to those principles."
This is Benton's second conviction for campaign finance violations. In May 2016, he was found guilty of illegally facilitating the transfer of $73,000 to an Iowa state senator in exchange for endorsing Ron Paul during his 2012 presidential bid. Trump pardoned Benton in December 2020, soon before leaving office.
- ADVERTISEMENT -
Prosecutors indicted Benton and Doug Wead, a conservative evangelical pundit involved in multilevel marketing, in September 2021. Wead, who died later that year at age 75, was accused of connecting Vasilenko to Benton.
Benton's lawyer, Brian Stolarz, argued during the trial that Vasilenko was just a self-promoter willing to pay to get photos of himself with celebrities, and he and Wead settled on Trump after looking into photo ops with Oprah Winfrey, Michelle Obama, and Stephen Seagal, The Washington Post reports. "If Oprah was available," he said in his closing argument, "we wouldn't even be here." Stolarz said Vasilenko was interested in a photo with "the guy who used to be on The Apprentice," not a future president, and Trump appeared only briefly at the fundraiser and "just talked about polls."
Prosecutors disputed the idea that Vasilenko wasn't interested in Trump's political cachet, noting he was running for a seat in Russia's parliament at the time, and his photo with Trump helped get him on Russian television. And Benton, they said, clearly should have known he was violating federal campaign finance laws after his 2016 conviction.

CBDC: How COVID Became The Path To Global Financial Surveillance
CBDC: How COVID Became The Path To Global Financial Surveillance | ZeroHedge

Every indication is that CBDC’s arrival is imminent. On Tuesday, several global banks announced a partnership with the New York Federal Reserve to pilot digital dollars. Given the ubiquity of credit and debit cards, payment apps and other online payment systems, digital money has been bound to happen for some time. The risk isn’t the electronic part, that’s inevitable – it’s the fact that a central bank will oversee the digital currency.

From my vantage point, it’s impossible to overstate the risk presented by CBDC. Whether it’s a utopian vision based on good intentions or a sinister plot to crush our sovereignty, the result may be the same: control. A Central Bank Digital Currency has all the downsides of fiat money, plus the added layers of surveillance and programmability overseen by the state.

So many people on Team Reality have likely felt like dissidents over the last few years simply for challenging anything beyond the herd mentality. Asking questions or speaking against the narrative about topics including the likely origins of the Covid virus, usefulness of PCR, risk to most of the population, benefits of early treatment, advantages of natural immunity, safety and efficacy of vaccines, pros and cons of masks and lockdowns, and the utility of vaccine passports created an environment where people were stigmatised, alienated or outright censored. Imagine a monetary system with features baked-in to socially engineer how we live. For example:
  • Health: “You didn’t take your booster… sorry, you’re not allowed in public spaces.”
  • Energy: “You used your energy allotment this month… sorry, your electric car won’t start.”
  • Food: “You ate too much meat this week… sorry, your money is only good for plants (or bugs).”
  • Savings: “If you don’t take your rations soon… sorry, your money will expire at the end of the month.”
  • Free Speech: “You shared info that we disagree with… sorry, our algorithm is fining you.” (PayPal has already started doing this.)
If CBDC ultimately becomes the new monetary system, its core features will make it so that world governments will no longer need something like a global health crisis to print money or close society. Lines of code can shape our behaviour and ensure we’re forced to stay home. The entire platform will be designed to expel labour that is no longer deemed necessary. While I initially believed the state-led pharmacological interventions were an isolated, acute threat in this era, it’s become evident they were simply one tentacle in a much larger beast. Whatever forces are insinuating this direction on the world (looking your way, Davos), it’s revealed itself to be unrelenting in its pursuit of perpetuating fear and power.

I’m well aware this must sound insane, especially to anyone that hasn’t paid attention to this trend for a while. A few years ago, I would have thought it was preposterous, but after witnessing the Government’s lies, deception and grab for control, I’ve become fearful that this may be where we’re headed. When you consider that vaccine mandates had no medically justifiable purpose, it’s entirely plausible that they were simply an on-ramp to normalise a ‘papers please’ society. In NYC, where I lived until recently, most people accepted vaxports and loved the Excelsior Pass mobile app because it was convenient. How many will feel the same about digital money, which will undoubtedly come with its share of benefits?

Whiney little bitch:

A furious Donald Trump unloaded Friday on Fox News over the appointment of a special counsel to investigate his activities.
The former president vowed he “won’t partake” in any investigation conducted by the special counsel and slammed the appointment as “the worst politicization of justice in our country.”
Attorney General Merrick Garland named a special counsel Friday to oversee the Justice Department’s investigation into classified documents stashed at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago residence that had been transported there from the White House at the end of Trump’s term.
The special counsel — former Justice Department official Jack Smith — will also supervise the continuing probe into Trump’s role in last year’s Jan. 6 insurrection and efforts to toss out the results of the presidential election.
“I have been going through this for six years ... and I am not going to go through it anymore,” the former president told Fox News Digital, referring to various investigations.
“I hope the Republicans have the courage to fight this,” added Trump, who just announced Tuesday that he’s launching yet another bid for the presidency.
He falsely claimed he has been found innocent “on everything” in all investigations over the last six years.
The naming of the special counsel is “not acceptable,” Trump added. “It is so unfair. It is so political.”
He vowed: “I am not going to partake in it. I’m not going to partake in this.”
Trump insisted: “I have never heard of such a thing ... They found nothing, and now they take some guy who hates Trump. This is a disgrace and only happening because I am leading in every poll in both parties.”
He’s not leading in every poll in both parties.
