A Frankenstein Monster Devouring the World
By Cliff Kincaid – March 23, 2020 In another Trump-bashing piece in the Washington Post, a professor noted, in passing, that “several Chinese labs participated more than 20 years ago in the human genome project,” as if this were a good thing. In fact, the Human Genome Project (HGP) opened the door to a Communist Frankenstein project of human genetic modification and manipulation. The Chinese Reds are the new Nazis. If there is anything to be learned from this disaster, it is that America must become self-sufficient in terms of medicine and medical production capabilities and avoid entanglements with China. President Trump was moving in the direction of America-first policies before the Chinese unleashed their virus on the world. Assuming that President Trump (with the reluctant support of Congressional Democrats) can save our nation from an economic apocalypse, it will be necessary for America to remain on guard against even more Chinese biological threats. And one of the most significant is Chinese communist scientific and genetic manipulation of what it means to be human. “China is fast becoming the world capital of controversial science,” notes one report. A Chinese scientist, He Jiankui, went public in November 2018 with this dangerous effort, declaring that he had created the world’s first genetically-altered babies. The communist authorities were caught off-guard by this unauthorized disclosure. In a show-trial, the regime sentenced the scientist to three years in prison for practicing illegal medicine. Though presented as an effort to identify hereditary illnesses, we can easily see how the project could be used to produce a “master race.” China certainly seems to think it's superior to the West. “Made in China 2025” is a state-led industrial strategy intended to make China the dominant power in high-tech manufacturing. At the same time, its Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) was launched in 2013 and is designed as a global infrastructure development project focused on Asia, Europe, and Africa. Italy, now leading the world in Chinese virus deaths, was the first big European economy to join China’s enormous BRI project. As a visitor to Italy earlier this year, I can vouch for the fact that Chinese were flooding into the country. Our own taxpayer-funded National Institutes of Health (NIH) launched the Human Genome Project (HGP) in 1990 and it was completed, with Chinese “cooperation,” in April 2003. It is described as “the ability, for the first time, to read nature's complete genetic blueprint for building a human being.” The project cost was $2.7 billion. The International Human Genome Sequencing Consortium included the Beijing Genomics Institute/Human Genome Center and its Institute of Genetics. It would have been far wiser to invest the HGP money in rectifying the actual basis for human disease and conditions, such as dirty water, infections, and bad dietary habits. Instead, however, a decision was made to allow the Medical Deep State to practice genetic engineering, in cooperation with China. As President Trump puts the U.S. on a war footing to confront this threat, public Interest attorney Larry Klayman, as well as the Berman law group, have filed suits against China for covering up the release of the virus, causing human suffering and thousands of deaths. But the Chinese are moving forward, asserting that their “socialist market economy” is superior to ours. President Trump sees the danger for our own economy. “We cannot let the cure be worse than the problem itself,” he notes. After saving the U.S. economy (if he ever gets Democratic Party support), he will have to investigate how the NIH and CDC enabled China’s biomedical industry to progress to the point where it has become a Frankenstein monster threatening the world. Incredibly, the CDC’s website still touts “collaboration” with the regime. The CDC and the government of China “have collaborated for the past 30 years addressing public health priorities affecting the U.S., China, and the world,” the CDC website proclaims. The CDC says it has three employees in the country and 11 “locally employed” individuals assisting the office. One CDC document asserts, “With a population of nearly 1.4 billion and 50% of the world’s livestock, China’s ecology poses a risk for emerging, re-emerging, and novel diseases that could threaten China, the U.S., and the rest of the world. Moreover, the world’s growing network of air travel routes dramatically increases the risk for infections to rapidly spread, and for potential pandemics that can cause illness, death, and costly disruption to global trade.” All of this foreshadowed what has happened in China and the rest of the world with the virus outbreak. But according to published reports, China informed the CDC and the U.N.’s China-friendly World Health Organization (WHO) about the mysterious cases of “pneumonia” on December 31, 2019, three weeks after the first case was documented. It took several more weeks, until January 30, before the WHO alerted the world to a public health emergency. China refused offers of CDC personnel to investigate the nature of the disease, indicating a nefarious reason for the cover-up. It looks like the “cooperation” with China has been a one-way street. The Medical Deep State has helped create a monster.

Iran: COVID-19 DISINFORMATION FACT-SHEET 03/23/2020 05:54 PM EDT Office of the Spokesperson “I also want to call attention to the Iranian regime’s misinformation campaign surrounding the origination of the Wuhan virus. Instead of focusing on the needs of the Iranian people and accepting genuine offers of support, senior Iranians lied about the Wuhan virus outbreak for weeks.” The Iranian leadership is trying to avoid responsibility for their grossly incompetent and deadly governance. Sadly, the Iranian people have been suffering these kinds of lies for 41 years. They know the truth: The Wuhan virus is a killer and the Iranian regime is an accomplice.” -Secretary Pompeo, Remarks to the Press March 17, 2020 FACTS

Khamenei’s Lies About the Wuhan Virus Put Lives at Risk 03/23/2020 07:22 AM EDT Michael R. Pompeo, Secretary of State Supreme Leader Khamenei’s fabrications regarding the Wuhan Virus are dangerous and they put Iranians and people around the world at greater risk. Facts matter. Here are a few the Iranian regime would like to keep from the world: Fact: In February, Iran’s chief terror airline, Mahan Air, ran at least 55 flights between Tehran and China, further infecting the Iranian people. At least five foreign countries’ first cases of coronavirus were directly imported from Iran, putting millions more lives at risk. Fact: The Iranian regime ignored repeated warnings from its own health officials, and denied its first death from the coronavirus for at least nine days. The regime continues to lie to the Iranian people and the world about the number of cases and deaths, which are unfortunately far higher than the regime admits. Fact: As Iranian regime officials ask for more funds, it is important to note that since 2012, Iran has spent over $16 billion on terror abroad, and used sanctions relief from the JCPOA to fill up its proxies’ coffers. Regime officials stole over a billion Euros intended for medical supplies, and continue to hoard desperately needed masks, gloves, and other medical equipment for sale on the black market. Fact: U.S. sanctions do not target imports of food, medicine and medical equipment, or other humanitarian goods. Iranian documents show their health companies have been able to import testing kits without obstacle from U.S. sanctions since January. Fact: The United States has offered over $100 million in medical assistance to foreign countries, including to the Iranian people, and our scientists are working tirelessly to develop a vaccine. Khamenei rejected this offer because he works tirelessly to concoct conspiracy theories and prioritizes ideology over the Iranian people. Official press release:
Public Health Group Calls on State Governors to Close Marijuana Stores to Mitigate COVID-19 Harms (Alexandria, Va) - Today, Dr. Kevin Sabet, president of Smart Approaches to Marijuana (SAM) , the leading national non-profit working to oppose the expansion and normalization of the commercial marijuana industry and a former senior drug policy advisor to the Obama Administration, released the following statement urging state governors to close marijuana storefronts in attempts to both prevent the spread of COVID-19 and help mitigate potential harms to public health: “We are in contact with numerous governors across the country and have a simple message for them: Marijuana worsens symptoms related to COVID-19, and keeping marijuana stores open threatens public health. We have seen numerous reports of marijuana stores with long lines of people stocking up on the drug and have additionally seen states move to keep these stores open. Quite frankly, this presents a unique harm to public health and safety. Across the country, states are doing everything in their power to limit the gathering of people in one location. Long lines outside of establishments engaged in the distribution of marijuana should be a tremendous cause for concern. “As U.S. Surgeon General Jerome Adams pointed out this morning , our nation could be at a higher risk of seeing worse health consequences resulting from COVID-19 due to the higher proportion of people using vaping products containing either nicotine or marijuana. This was backed up by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) who reported that ‘the coronavirus that causes COVID-19 could be an especially serious threat to those who smoke tobacco or marijuana or who vape,’ due to its serious impact on the lungs of those it infects. “What’s more, studies have found that the consumption of THC, the psychoactive chemical found in marijuana, in any form can negatively impact a user’s immune system, making them less capable of fighting off and recovering from COVID-19. This means we must also assume the consumption of high potency THC candies, gummies, ice creams, and oils can exacerbate issues with this virus. “In light of these facts, we are urging governors in states with ‘legal’ marijuana operations to suspend the operations of these facilities in an effort to combat the spread of this pandemic and empower those who become infected to stand the best chance at a full recovery. With the very real shortage we are facing with ventilators, hospital beds, and other medical supplies, we must do all that is within our power to lessen the stress this will place on our healthcare system.” Official press release:
Over one hundred leaders demand abortion centers close to stop the spread of COVID-19 There can be no "sacred cows" in a pandemic Contact: (Also Available by Skype) Janet Porter: 202-241-2228 Mark Harrington: 614-419-9000 Mark Crutcher: 940-380-8800 March 23, 2020 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE More than 100 national leaders and organizations released video proof of abortion facilities defiance of public health warnings and state and national health directives, putting all our lives at risk. These leaders and groups demand governors enforce pandemic health directives and close the doors to abortion businesses to stop the spread of the deadly Coronavirus. While churches, schools and businesses have closed, it's "business as usual" for abortion facilities as a video released by the groups today reveals. Abortion businesses continue to perform elective surgeries, putting risking our lives. "There can be no 'sacred cows' in a pandemic," said Janet Porter, President of Faith2Action. "Just as Governor Mike DeWine issued an order to 'immediately stop performing elective surgical abortions,' other Governors must follow suit to stop the spread of this deadly virus." Porter added, "Those orders must also be enforced despite flagrant defiance from the abortion industry as revealed in the video released today." " If abortion is a 'choice' then abortion is an elective procedure," said Mark Harrington President and Founder of Created Equal. "Abortionists want to have it both ways. In a clear double standard, abortion centers across the nation are staying open during this national health crisis, risking public health and safety, " said Harrington. "Now they are risking your life," said Mark Crutcher President of Life Dynamics. "If governors allow abortion businesses to remain open they are putting all of our lives at risk." Porter said, "No matter one's position on abortion, we must come together in unity to stop the spread of the deadly Coronavirus and evenhandedly enforce public safety directives." Harrington added, "These centers must close their doors to help stop the spread of COVID-19. If they believe in the health and safety of Americans, they must comply with these orders to cease providing abortions." Porter stated, "As Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost's deputy Jonathan Fulkerson stated in his letter to the abortion businesses, 'This is an unprecedented time in the state's history and everyone must do their part to help stop the spread of this disease.' Everyone means everyone ," declared Porter. The video and more than 100 national leaders and organizations can be found at the website StopTheSpreadRightNow.com along with the phone numbers and emails to reach the governors in all fifty states. The Obama Administration decided to sink billions of dollars into global “climate change” schemes, such as the U.N.’s wasteful and ineffective Green Climate Fund. Ironically, an observer to the Green Climate Fund (GCF) has become the first reported case of coronavirus in Liberia, after attending the GCF fund’s board meeting in Switzerland. At that meeting, the GCF approved a $38.2 million grant to communist Cuba.
Fortunately, on June 1, 2017, President Trump announced termination of U.S. contributions to the Green Climate Fund “which is costing the United States a vast fortune.” From Politico, 1/17/2017: The [Obama] State Department announced Tuesday it is sending a second, $500 million payment to the Green Climate Fund. The payment is the second from the U.S. to support the fund, which is intended to provide climate adaptation money to developing nations, and serves as the financial mechanism of the Paris climate agreement. The fund is supposed to reach $100 billion by 2020, with both public and private funding from around the world. YouTube event Sunday

Excerpts: The C100 U.S.-China Fulbright Fund was announced last week in Washington, D.C. during a State Department public diplomacy event at George Washington University on the occasion of the U.S.-China Social and Cultural Dialogue, hosted by U.S. Secretary of State Rex Tillerson and Madame Vice Premier Liu Yandong as part of the U.S.-China Comprehensive Dialogue framework spearheaded by President Donald Trump and President Xi Jinping. The special event featured U.S. Cabinet Secretaries including U.S. Secretary of Transportation Elaine Chao, U.S. Secretary of Education Betsy DeVos, and a high level delegation of Chinese leaders including China's Vice Premier Liu Yandong, Minister of Education Chen Baosheng, Minister of Science and Technology Wan Gang, Minister of Culture Luo Shugang, Minister of National Health and Family Planning Commission Li Bin, Ambassador to the United States Cui Tiankai, and others. As the nation's highest ranking Chinese American government official, U.S. Secretary of Transportation Elaine Chao opened the event speaking of her personal journey immigrating from China to the U.S. at the age of eight. She expounded on the unique and important role of Asian Americans in the United States. "They are part of a growing vibrant community that have contributed much to America," said Secretary Chao. U.S. Secretary of Education Betsy DeVos spoke about her own eye-opening experience in China as a study abroad student, and underscored the importance of educational exchanges such as that of the Fulbright Scholarship Program.

Excerpts: Trump’s repeated insistence on calling coronavirus the “Chinese virus” is more than just xenophobic; it causes harm both to Asian Americans and to the White House’s response to this life-threatening pandemic. Though the Chinese government certainly made mistakes at the beginning of the coronavirus outbreak, we can learn a lot from Chinese doctors and scientists who were on the front lines of this crisis and also cooperate and get vital medical equipment and supplies. China recently sent doctors, ventilators, face masks and protective suits to Italy.
