Oh No! Trump's DOJ is Prosecuting the Frankencientists Who Created Covid, Shut Down the Earth, and Killed Tens of Millions
And The Atlantic is alarmed by this justice-seeking behavior.
Lab-Leak Payback Has Begun"Payback"? Oh right, because any time a liberal is prosecuted for his notorious crimes it's just "political payback" from Trump. The endless prosecutions of Trump, on the other hand, were Just Some Good Prosecutin'.
Indictments, subpoenas, and debarments are hitting American scientists embroiled in the controversy over COVID's origins.
You mean the same way that Fauci and his paid shills insisted the case was closed and it was a conspiracy theory and "racist" to question him? He was Science, after all.
By Daniel Engber The origins of the coronavirus pandemic remain contested; the evidence is incomplete. But pundits, activists, and members of the Trump administration have long insisted that the case is closed, and that the virus slipped out from a lab in China. They've maintained the view that U.S. scientists were involved and later tried to hide the facts. They've said that justice must be served.
Good stuff, this "payback."
Now the reckoning they want appears to have arrived. An expert on the flu got hauled off by the FBI. A coronavirus researcher was indicted in Detroit. Two prominent virologists stepped down or were removed from senior roles. And a fifth infectious-disease researcher--Anthony Fauci, the central figure in an alleged "lab-leak" cover-up--was recently subpoenaed to appear before the U.S. Senate. ... The first case was Ralph Baric, a 72-year-old virologist and bat-coronavirus expert at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Baric worked closely with researchers at the Wuhan Institute of Virology, which many adherents to the lab-leak theory posit as the source of the pandemic; one contingent thinks that Baric might have been the creator of the SARS-CoV-2 virus. On April 15, the NIH, which has in the past provided Baric's lab with hundreds of millions of dollars in research funds, referred him for debarment from all federal contracts for at least three years. The claims against him focus on some inconsistencies in paperwork and a series of decade-old experiments that the agency says were carried out in violation of a pause of a "gain-of-fuction" research. Baric told Science magazine's Jon Cohen that he's fighting the debarment, and that he'd been targeted on account of the furor over COVID origins; he appears to have retired from UNC on June 1. (Neither Baric nor the Department of Health and Human Services, which oversees NIH, responded to requests for comment.)
The day after the government kicked off Baric's debarment proceedings, David Morens, a 78-year-old influenza specialist and one of Fauci's close advisers at NIAID, was indicted for conspiring to hide or falsify discussions of coronavirus research grants. "We have to keep all communications like this on private email so that it can't be retrieved via a FOIA," he wrote in one message from 2021. On April 27, per Cohen's reporting, armed federal agents in bulletproof vests arrived at Morens's home in Chester, Maryland, and handcuffed him in his underwear. Morens pleaded not guilty to the charges. (The FBI told Science that this description of the arrest was "inaccurate"; Morens's attorney declined to comment for this story.) Just a few weeks later, news came out that the acting head of NIAID--the virologist Jeffrey Taubenberger, a very close colleague of Morens's--had either stepped down or been fired from his role. He and Morens had worked together on more than 60 academic papers, including 13 that also list Fauci as an author--and both had been on the radar of the lab-leak hard-liners. (Taubenberger did not respond to a request for comment.) News also broke in May that the FBI was investigating another NIAID virologist, Vincent Munster, who had been called out for collaborating with Baric and the scientists in Wuhan. Since then, prosecutors have filed an indictment charging Munster and another researcher from his lab with a conspiracy to smuggle mpox into the U.S. and with making false statements to federal agents. The government claims that on January 25, Munster and that colleague arrived at an airport in Detroit from the Republic of the Congo with a black plastic case containing samples of the mpox virus, seemingly deactivated and noninfectious, and that they both lacked proper documentation for these materials and misled the customs agents who questioned them. The two virologists have pleaded not guilty. (Munster's attorney did not respond to a request for comment.) The strongest argument for connecting all of these cases is that lab-leak activists themselves have done the same. Anthony Bellotti, the founder and president of the White Coat Waste Project, an animal-activist group that has leveraged the lab-leak theory in pursuit of its goal of ending all taxpayer-funded animal testing, declared that "Morens' indictment should be the beginning--not the end--of long-overdue lab leak accountability at NIH." Just two weeks before Munster was indicted on charges that seem to have no connection with the pandemic, Bellotti's group joined the right-wing activist Laura Loomer in hawking what they called a "whistleblower report" about the virologist's alleged misdeeds. That document describes Munster as a "Fauci acolyte and all around egotistical, arrogant foreigner that joined his research project (to aerosolize covid virus) to Ralph Baric's project (to weaponize it)." I could find no evidence that Munster, who is a Dutch citizen, ever worked on a project to "aerosolize" SARS-CoV-2. In the meantime, Senator Rand Paul has linked Munster's name to an early draft of a Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency grant application, with Baric listed as a principal investigator, that proposed to gauge the spillover risk associated with bat coronaviruses. The project's ultimate goal was to limit that threat but involved altering the viruses in ways that might have made them more infectious--and more like SARS-CoV-2. (The final version of that proposal does not mention Munster, and the extent to which he knew its details are unclear.) If you believe, as Paul and others do, that this unfunded DARPA project may have been a blueprint for generating the pandemic virus--and that, one way or another, virologists' disregard for biosafety helped cause the deaths of millions--then seeking justice would be natural. If you're also sure that COVID got its start in studies funded by the U.S. government, and specifically through NIAID, then there is no greater villain in this story than Fauci. Just last week, Paul announced that he'd subpoenaed the lab-leak theory's final boss to testify in Congress at the end of this month. "He has not really gotten his just deserts," Paul said in a weekend interview on Fox. He later added: "There needs to be repercussions." A hearing is one of the clearest avenues to pursue such measures: The blanket pardon that Fauci received from President Biden wouldn't cover any charges of lying to Congress that arose from new sworn testimony. (Neither Fauci nor Paul responded to requests for comment.)

1) COVID came from the Wuhan lab
2) The clot shots did not stop the spread
3) COVID was not particularly dangerous to young/in shape people

But while those minor dramas have played out (costing the left literally tens of millions of dollars in legal fees), the admin has forcibly deported 900,000 others (3-4 million others probably have left on their own).

The argument for the bio research labs the government confirmed we are funding is an interesting one.
We hired a bunch of third world biologists so they "wouldn't work on bioweapons instead" and then we...put them to work on GoF research which creates bioweapons.

Nuremburg was actually kind of a shit show.
Sometimes you’ll hear people pointing towards the “De-Nazification” of Germany as analogue to things, like cleansing the Communist infiltrators in the. USA.
Well in point of order, what the military planners in charge of post-war Germany found, it was damned tough to find anybody competent who wasn’t associated with the regime. Now what?
And the US government imported thousands of chemical, biological, and propaganda warfare specialists to America under the aegis of the “Paperclip” program.
We like to think of the 1950s and Eisenhower era as some sort of halcyon time, but there was some really super skeevy shit going down under the radar. I would argue the 1960s were the product of that to a large degree, between the longer established Frankfurt School communists embedded in Academia, and the unregulated and no oversight spooks in the alphabet agencies, no society has been fucked with more than that huge cohort sometimes called the Boomers.
You can see the fingerprints or all these machinations right now, here today. The stuff we argue about, and wonder “how did this happen!?”

Someone was ranting about how unlike Trump the left dumps its rapists and someone, not me, posted Tara Reade's testimony.
The left's response? That's totally different, it was just her word against Biden's and obviously even though she was a career Democrat she did it for partisans reasons...blah blah...
Our original poster then took the responses and stuck in E Jean Carroll's name and got a whole bunch of responses on the order of REEEEE

If they want to hold onto this argument, it's that the establishment of the party is keeping back the insanity of the base, denying its own voters a say in representation. And that that's a good thing because Democrat voters can't be trusted.

We like to think of the 1950s and Eisenhower era as some sort of halcyon time, but there was some really super skeevy shit going down under the radar
I read an argument that Roswell was actually two related things the government didn't want to talk about at the time:
The US government working on top secret radiation detection balloons (the supposed spaceship) and was doing radiation experiments on corpses to see the effect of radiation on human tissue...conducted with a fair number of German/Paperclip scientists.
Note later we detected the initial Soviet nuclear tests with radiation detection balloons and there was a scandal a few years later when it came out that the US had been using corpses that might or might not have been legally acquired for radiation testing on human tissue.
So the argument goes letting people believe it was aliens instead solved a bunch of problems and that's why the government kept acting like they were hiding an alien crash site...

the media calls the lab leak origin is racist while the infected Pangolin at a Chinese wet market origin was the non-racist theory.
——-
Early on in the debacle, rumor control had it that the “leak” was initiated because of dumpster diving. “Gain of function” essentially means passing the virus back and forth repeatedly between animals many many times and needs a lot of them. The idea is to accelerate mutation. Rinse lather repeat, with the mutated version.
Anyway. The locals couldn’t pass up a source of available free protein.

Internet media on the right is based a lot on rage clicks which eventually demoralize and demotivate voters on the Right.
You can get okay information from even crappy left biased sources but you have to read carefully with prior knowledge from other stories in the past plus the relative credibility of the source--some will lie with abandon, others will lie by more subtle means like omission.
Clickbait rage stories on the right however, are simpatico with ideals but it leaves the impression that a) these specific instances are the general rule, b) that nothing can be done about it. So impotent rage eventually leads to disengagement and depression in the long run.
Go to original sources, even leftist ones, first and then you can weigh the credibility and usefulness of any right commentary on it. Unfortunately, as someone said here yesterday, the media on right have scant interest in reporters but a lot on commentary using msm materials.

I continue to believe the whole gain-of-function and Wuhan lab wasn't a real lab doing real work. It was primarily a money-laundering operation to soak up piles of American money and send it to Democrap and foreign constituents.
Why do I think this? Just look at the videos of the Wuhan lab and the supposedly careful and dangerous work they were doing. The lab was a joke -- less secure and safe than a high school biology lab.
Experimenting with dangerous viruses in Wuhan would be like splicing BSL-4 pathogens in an open-air kiosk inside a mall. There's no way anyone really believed the Wuhan lab was capable of doing any real work on viruses. It wasn't supposed to. It was intended to suck up money.
But somewhere along the line, the Bat Lady actually went and created something. Of course it got out. What wouldn't have escaped that lab? There were almost no containment or safety protocols in place.

IRRC, the specific sequence that the Indian researchers found related to the AIDS virus which helped the Covid sample investigated avoid certain immune responses.

The initial argument was that the clot shot stopped the spread of COVID. So they could mandate you not go to the office or a movie or something without the clot shot because then you could spread COVID.
Of course shortly it came out that Moderna and Pfizer faked their effectivity data and the line became no the clot shot won't stop you from getting COVID it will just make you less sick when you get it.
But...they kept all the clot shot mandates in place even after they agreed the reason for them was bullshit

Yo, NATO. You guys are probably going to meet Trump again soon, individually.

Yep. And it is also aided by witting and unwitting trolling in commentary--the unwitting types simply parrot back talking points that they got from some shill, the witting types subtly try to blackpill others that nothing can be done, defeat is inevitable, etc. etc. Implying no choice or agency is allowed that could combat whatever the circumstance happens to be.
On registration sites, it becomes pretty quickly obvious who the unwitting and the witting trolls are. On sites like this, you have to learn patterns of behavior which takes a bit longer.

The right wing has the same problem with media they have with everything else.
We don't have a bunch of government $$$ sitting around to fund right wing causes and most of the rich people on the right have no interest in funding such either.
So the left has cadres of people trained and funded to advance the left and we have people that advance the right in their spare time.

Remember, Chuck Schumer personally recruited Janet Mills months before the primary and even before the Nazi tattoo was revealed, funded her, and watched her wither and die as the leftist base (led by the socialist coalition within the Senate like Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders) funded the Nazi-tattooed rapist.
It's an argument against Warren, Sanders, and the base itself.
It's an argument that the Democrat base is insane.
"Our side polices itself," the left insists.
"No, your establishment polices the base. The base keeps making the decisions to put up Nazi rapists, and the moderate ones have to use all of their power to deny you your voice in your own party's processes."
It's a demoralizing argument to be used against them.

Morens pleaded not guilty to the charges. (The FBI told Science that this description of the arrest was "inaccurate"; Morens's attorney declined to comment for this story.)"

For declining an experimental, emergency use only vaccine.
This is totally illegal, you cannot force people into experimental medical trials. Arguably the DOD has a workaround.
USC Title 18 is clear enough. Even the appearance of coercion is unlawful. “We’re not forcing you to take the vaccine. You are free to quit your job and get one somewhere else!”
Totally not coercive, right?

The origins of the coronavirus pandemic remain contested; the evidence is incomplete. But pundits, activists, and members of the Trump administration have long insisted that the case is closed, and that the virus slipped out from a lab in China. They've maintained the view that U.S. scientists were involved and later tried to hide the facts. They've said that justice must be served.
---
Yeah, because only Trump ever prematurely closed the book on anything regarding the pandemic.
Like that couple of months when the "lab leak theory" was "totally debunked"?

Covid is my litmus test for the ability of a leftist to think for themselves. There is overwhelming evidence that it was a lab leak. In fact, there is actually zero evidence it jumped from bat to human. There is also actual evidence that it was funded by the NIH through EcoHealth Alliance, meaning, Fauci actually has some responsibility for the deaths of hundred of thousands of people.
If a leftist won't consider these facts (and engage with reality), they're hopelessly lost. Same if they deflect to their favorite derp, "why does it matter now?"

It takes time, it takes prior knowledge so harder to persuade people to get up to speed, conservatives are generally pessimists going way back to the FDR administration about the coming victory of Socialism/Communism, now Islam.
A lot of people want to deny their own agency in political matters because it is far easier if 'nothing can be done" or "we have lost already." Or some other crappy nostalgic view on what was lost in the unrecoverable past. We can only move forward and we do have agency, each and every one of us and nothing is inevitable--it is always a choice by those in society at the time to curl up and die or fight for another possible win.
As Churchill said about England (for spergs, not exact quote but near enough), nations that go down fighting may rise again but nations that surrender don't.

The people who created Covid and the Democrats who aid and abetted the process, and the usurpation of our civil rights, should be hung, and their bodies posted on pikes with signs saying “murderer”. What they wrought on the public is a mass murder worse than Pol Pot or any dictatorial maniac has done.
It should be remembered for generations and in a right, just world would keep Democrats from holding any office. They abused power in the worst possible way and then try to hide their involvement. All at the expense of the citizens.

You should always ask as a first question "Why is this particular media outlet reporting this particular fact now?"
Every media source has an angle. That doesn't mean the reporting is false. But you should always read the story understanding WHY they CHOSE to print it.

But while those minor dramas have played out (costing the left literally tens of millions of dollars in legal fees), the admin has forcibly deported 900,000 others (3-4 million others probably have left on their own).

Iranian propaganda is the newest thing.
Iran says it controls the strait and that everyone will pay them billions in tolls per vessel.
And a shocking number of people instantly believe them. Instantly (bonchie is a really bad example of this).
No critical thinking about, like, how Iran will impose tolls when ships take the Omani side of the strait, or how the actual transfer of payments would happened to a sanctioned nation, or how they would actually enforce it. Nope. Just, total belief.
And then total disbelief that the US might have completely destroyed Iran's ability to project force beyond a diminishing number of GPS guided drones and dudes with AK's in fishing boats. And the belief that Iran will have a peer military in a couple of months from imports from China over a railway that takes weeks to travel, is not contiguous, and is easily targeted.

I don't see how the lab leak theory and the Wuhan wet market theory can't be both. At that point we are just arguing over how it leaked.
Did it come out in a person from the lab or did it come out in an animal they used then sent to the market? Where is the source of the dogs, monkeys and God knows what else in that market?

Seeing this as a researcher pisses me right off. Right now there's push to digitize everything (electronic notebooks and such) and you know if some lower-level grad student or post-doc had essentially made their notes and communications private, they'd get their ass reamed out over it.

And the SCOTUS has been silent.
The SCOTUS forte is only School-marmish rule and causing bloody civil wars because judges know stuff.
Posted by: Axeman
Because Scotus, at its heart, has had Federalist Society appointees for the GOP and rabid leftists for the Democrats. Federalist Society types are judicial restraintists and corporatists in nature, the left are different shades of commies. So other than the rare justices like Thomas and Alito and perhaps Scalia at times, the gumption to throw aways decades or even a century or more of bad law is simply not within the abilities of Federalist type society members like Kavanaugh, Roberts, or ACB.
Stare decisis should never 'preserve' bad readings of the US Constitution--should never negate clauses that the current legal or political community don't like such as the contract clause, the privileges and immunities clause, the 9th Amendment, or other provisions like the guaranty clause. Words in a Constitution have to mean enforceable language regardless of some cowardly or evil court rulings in the past that say the opposite or twist a common definition to win a case majority.

Covid is my litmus test for the ability of a leftist to think for themselves. There is overwhelming evidence that it was a lab leak
An old buddy said just yesterday - in the same breath “I’ve had the shot and all the boosters” and that he’s had Covid, and it’s really no big deal. Like a sinus infection.
I guess the vaccine is really effective? Or … it doesn’t work very well either. Or … it isn’t really very safe either. “Lessens the symptoms”. Uh-huh

227 Salem employs a lot of people as commenters that are about as qualified as some rando person you found on the internet. Bonchie is a such a person. Chris Queen another. And Erik Erikson among others. No real qualifications, no real facts behind assertions, only feelings.
Like on the left, media types are actors first and useful information second.

I'm sure it takes some work, a lot of work, and still not be enough.
And why hasn't a single CEO been arrested for employing illegals?
Posted by: MAGA_Ken at July 10, 2026 02:04 PM (DbmIv)
This is a very legitimate question.
We're seeing illegal CDL drivers kill people almost every day. No one doing the hiring has been arrested.
We're seeing raids at businesses happen, illegals rounded up and deported, yet no one running the business has been arrested.
No one seems to be being held accountable for the reason the illegals come here in the first place, for the money.

All a company has to do is use eVerify, and they're immune from prosecution. That's how the law is written.
It gives the company no enforcement power, or even an avenue towards reporting the person who failed checks.
They are protected because they checked, even if the check fails.
Blame Congress.

After the Romans conquered the Greeks, they assumed a lot of Greek culture and their upper classes spoke Greek (IIRC, Julius Caesar's last words were not 'Et tu, Brute' but 'Kai sou, tenalion' (thou too, child).
Byzantium was quite hostile to the Western world after the Great Schism.

It seems like they could have claimed the US created the experiment design, but it is almost indisputable China created the actual disease, so if they are claiming differently I never saw it, at least early on.

The original work on the COVID virus was done in the US. It was only when the research got too close to breaking anti-biowarfare law that it was sent to be finished in Wuhan, in cooperation with US researchers. If I remember the timeline correctly, it was immediately after a visit by US researchers to the Wuhan lab, around the time of the International Military Games (sort of an armed forces version of the Olympics) were being held in Wuhan, that evidence of the first leaks was determined. This was late in 2019, just in time for those military athletes to take the virus home with them. The Communist Chinese have always held that it was the visiting US researchers who released the virus. From the timing, this may be true.

If Mamdani rips property away from landlords and gives it to the people who will serve the "community" better, this is NOT "communist", it's not "socialist", it is another branch off Marxism entirely called "fascism".

Posted by: Axeman
I don't see much meaningful differences between Fascist, Socialist and Communist governments - obey the state or face negative consequences for offending the state - to varying degrees and scales of punishments. But everyone says one is Evil Far Right Wing and the others are maybe a little center left or a tiny bit further left than center left (never Far Left). So where does a limited government whose primary job is to protect the God-given rights of its citizens belong on this Left/Right scale? It doesn't.
