Now scientists find virus contains tiny chunk of DNA that matches sequence patented by Moderna THREE YEARS before pandemic began Genetic match discovered in Covid's unique furin cleavage site on spike protein Matched genetic sequence patented by Moderna for cancer research purposes Researchers say one in 3trillion chance Covid developed the code naturally By CONNOR BOYD DEPUTY HEALTH EDITOR FOR MAILONLINE PUBLISHED: 12:48 EST, 23 February 2022 | UPDATED: 03:55 EST, 24 February 2022 Fresh suspicion that Covid may have been tinkered with in a lab emerged today after scientists found genetic material owned by Moderna in the virus's spike protein. They identified a tiny snippet of code that is identical to part of a gene patented by the vaccine maker three years before the pandemic. The structure has been one of the focal points of debate about the virus's origin, with some scientists claiming it could not have been acquired naturally. The international team of researchers suggest the virus may have mutated to have a furin cleavage site during experiments on human cells in a lab. They claim there is a one-in-three-trillion chance Moderna's sequence randomly appeared through natural evolution. But there is some debate about whether the match is as rare as the study claims, with other experts describing it as a 'quirky' coincidence rather than a 'smoking gun'. SARS-CoV-2, which causes Covid, carries all the information needed for it to spread in around 30,000 letters of genetic code, known as RNA. The virus shares a sequence of 19 specific letters with a genetic section owned by Moderna. Twelve of the shared letters make up the structure of Covid's furin cleavage site, with the rest being a match with nucleotides on a nearby part of the genome +3 View gallery In the latest study, published in Frontiers in Virology, researchers compared Covid's makeup to millions of sequenced proteins on an online database. The virus is made up of 30,000 letters of genetic code that carry the information it needs to spread, known as nucleotides. It is the only coronavirus of its type to carry 12 unique letters that allow its spike protein to be activated by a common enzyme called furin, allowing it to spread between human cells with ease. Analysis of the original Covid genome found the virus shares a sequence of 19 specific letters with a genetic section owned by Moderna, which has a total of 3,300 nucleotides. The US-based pharmaceutical firm filed the patent in February 2016 as part of its cancer research division, records show. The patented sequence is part of a gene called MSH3 that is known to affect how damaged cells repair themselves in the body. Scientists have highlighted this pathway as a potential target for new cancer treatments. Twelve of the shared letters make up the structure of Covid's furin cleavage site, with the rest being a match with nucleotides on a nearby part of the genome. Writing in the paper, led by Dr Balamurali Ambati, from the University of Oregon, the researchers said the matching code may have originally been introduced to the Covid genome through infected human cells expressing the MSH3 gene. Professor Lawrence Young, a virologist at Warwick University, admitted the latest finding was interesting but claimed it was not significant enough to suggest lab manipulation. He told MailOnline: 'We're talking about a very, very, very small piece made up of 19 nucleotides. 'So it doesn't mean very much to be frank, if you do these types of searches you can always find matches. 'Sometimes these things happen fortuitously, sometimes it's the result of convergent evolution (when organisms evolve independently to have similar traits to adapt to their environment). 'It's a quirky observation but I wouldn't call it a smoking gun because it's too small. He added: 'It doesn't get us any further with the debate about whether Covid was engineered.' Dr Simon Clarke, a microbiologist at Reading University, questioned whether the find was as rare as the study claims. He told MailOnline: 'There can only be a certain number of [genetic combinations within] furin cleavage sites. 'They function like a lock and key in the cell, and the two only fit together in a limited number of combinations. 'So it's an interesting coincidence but this is surely entirely coincidental.' MailOnline has approached Moderna for comment. Circumstantial evidence has long raised questions about the origin of Covid and its link to the Wuhan Institute of Virology. The facility was known to be conducting experiments on bat coronavirus strains similar to the one responsible for the pandemic. China insisted early and often that the virus did not leak from the lab, claiming that crossover to humans must have occurred at a 'wet market' in Wuhan that sold live animals. Perhaps driven by animosity for then-US President Donald Trump, who embraced the lab leak theory early on, mainstream media and academics in the West heaped scorn on the possibility, calling it an unhinged conspiracy theory. But leaked emails showed that top scientists advising the UK and US Governments expressed concerns about the official narrative privately. A study earlier this month found traces of Covid samples that contained genetical material from humans, hamsters and monkeys and may have predated the official pandemic timeline. Sir Jeremy Farrar, an eminent British expert who publicly denounced the theory as a 'conspiracy', admitted in a private email in February 2020 that a 'likely explanation' was that the virus was man-made. The then-UK Government adviser said at the time he was '70:30 or 60:40' in favour of an accidental release versus natural origin. In the email, sent to American health chiefs Dr Anthony Fauci and Dr Francis Collins, Sir Jeremy said it was possible Covid had been evolved from a Sars-like virus in the lab. He went on that this seemingly benign process may have 'accidentally created a virus primed for rapid transmission between humans'. But the British scientist was shut down by his counterparts in the US who warned further debate about the origins of the virus could damage 'international harmony'. So - a unique gene PATENTED by Moderna in 2016 is found in Covid-19 and turns out it is the link between animals and humans ....... AND a "1 in 3 trillion" chance this gene was natural is now characterized as a "quirky coincidence" by the scientists ....... Nevermind - Ukraine!!!......Bad Putin...... A convenient coincidental distraction to the stories of Hillary Clinton funding the Russian hoax, Hunter Biden in court, Ghislaine Maxwell...... Candace Owens @RealCandaceO In 2016, Bill Gates Foundation gave a 20 million dollar grant to Moderna toward developing MRNA based treatments. That same year, Moderna filed a patent for a DNA sequence. Scientists just discovered that part of that sequence is in Covid-19 virus.
  2. https://nypost.com/2022/02/24/how-russia-can-use-crypto-to-avoid-us-sanctions-over-ukraine/ The Biden administration pledged to impose harsh economic sanctions on Russia over its invasion of Ukraine, which began in earnest on Thursday morning. But billionaire oligarchs close to Russian President Vladimir Putin could potentially blunt the effects of the sanctions thanks to cryptocurrency, according to experts. The decentralized nature of digital currencies like bitcoin and ethereum allows governments and non-governmental entities alike the benefit of peer-to-peer transactions — regardless of whether they are cut off from traditional banking services. “Neither dictators nor human rights activists will encounter any censor on the bitcoin network,” Matthew Sigel of investment manager VanEck told Bloomberg. Cryptocurrencies, which are digital assets that use cryptography to mask their users, are reliant on blockchain technology, whereby data is available on a public ledger but is stored in a way that lets users adopt pseudonyms. Knowing less than nothing about crypto - SF wonders is this for real? And if so, did the Biden administration know it? AND IF they knew it, then SF believes the Biden crime family syndicate is going to be receiving a pretty good pay off......

  4. So everyone is now supposed to act surprised that Vlad has working to re-build the USSR? Something he has been working towards the past decade or more? Primarily, he really didn't want NATO (which the Ukrainians have tried to become aligned with since 1992) to come to Ukraine. But since the Brussels Summit in June of 2021, it became apparent it was most likely going to happen - hence the build-up and now the invasion. I mean, everyone already knew this was inevitable - didn't they? Russia/Georgia - 2008 Russia/Crimea - 2014 Russia/Ukraine - 2014 (2021 invasion) SF wonders - Why is it that Russia seems to be more aggressive when a Democrat is in the White House?
  5. Putni just doesn't want NATO right next door. He's willing to scare the bejesus out of the people OF Ukraine and take a couple areas in the East back over just to back it up, and our President seems to be OK with that.

  8. Unintended consequence or intended? (#greatreset) https://thecovidworld.com/canadian-bank-runs-appear-to-be-under-way-as-the-trudeau-regime-declares-war-on-bank-assets-of-citizens/ Canadian Bank Runs Appear To Be Under Way As The Trudeau Regime Declares WAR On Bank Assets Of Citizens The COVID World post date: February 18th, 2022 By Mike Adams Thanks to the tyrannical actions of Chrystia Freeland — a Davos group devotee and the Deputy Prime Minister of Canada — the people of Canada are now rapidly withdrawing their funds from Canada’s largest banks. Three days ago, Freeland announced that Canada’s financial terrorism laws would be expanded to seize all funds — bank accounts, crypto, crowdfunding hubs, etc. — belonging to individuals who supported the peaceful convoy trucker protest… even if that person merely donated $10 to the convoy. And just like that, Chrystia Freeland broke the social contract between bank retail customers and the banks themselves. In one fell swoop, Freeland red-pilled the entire nation into understanding that their money isn’t safe in any bank in Canada, since the government can now seize all your private funds without due process, evidence or any rule of law. The entire promise of banking is that your deposits are your money and that you can withdraw them at any time. But Trudeau and Freeland just declared that all your bank deposits are their assets, and they can loot them at any time without notice, without any due process whatsoever. Suddenly the question emerges in the minds of everyone: So why deposit anything in the banks in the first place? The lawless dictatorship of Trudeau / Freeland Under the invocation of emergency powers, Canada’s government has become a lawless dictatorship, and they are using their tyrannical powers to loot the bank accounts of innocent people who merely want to participate in the peaceful protest against medical tyranny. Making good on the threat, not only have private bank accounts been seized by the Canadian government regime, Trudeau has ordered crypto exchanges to seize the funds of 34 crypto wallets now named by the government itself. These 34 crypto wallets are apparently being used to help fund the peaceful protesters, and the tyrannical (lawless) government of Canada has decided to declare all-out war against cryptocurrency in order to try to stop the bouncy castles and honking. Ezra Levant of RebelNews.com tweeted out: The answer, of course, is a classic bank run as the people of Canada rush to pull their deposits out of the country’s banks before the government steals all their money. The dynamic duo of Trudeau and Freeland, in less than 30 days, has managed to reveal to the people of Canada that not only is their government a terrorist authoritarian regime, but that all their life savings and business assets can and will be looted by that same government without notice, for almost any reason whatsoever. It’s amazing: The Trudeau regime is red pilling people faster than Alex Jones.
  9. Neil Young's short-lived temper tantrum is over (quietly)...... I do find it interesting that the "misinformation" he was accused of spreading was actually from one of the doctors that holds 9 patents on MRNA vaccine technology. So hardly "misinformation" IMHO....... https://www.analyzingamerica.org/2022/02/650991/?fbclid=IwAR3_Q5nnxHMHjbJT9XFMDhjF_ma3XOXxi2sjWkJha69nvW2_KJEnFTpP2n8 It wasn’t long ago that Canadian-native, anti-Trump rockstar Neil Young demanded that Spotify remove all of his music after the platform has refused to blacklist podcaster Joe Rogan. “I am doing this because Spotify is spreading fake information about vaccines – potentially causing death to those who believe the disinformation being spread by them,” Young said. “I want you to let Spotify know immediately TODAY that I want all my music off their platform,” Young continued. “They can have Rogan or Young. Not both.” Despite this ultimatum, Spotify called Neil Young’s bluff and refused to silence Rogan. Spotify took a bold stand for freedom of speech amid major backlash from liberals, including the Obamas, who demanded censorship on the platform. Singer Joni Mitchell joined Young and also claimed she was removing her music from Spotify. However, it turns out that neither Young nor Mitchell has the power to pull much of their music from the platform. The musicians’ catalogs are on labels that remain streamable on Spotify, reports have confirmed. Young and Mitchell never had the power to follow through on their threats themselves, the report adds. Just over a year ago, Young sold a 50% stake in his catalog to U.K. music investor Hipgnosis for a cool $150 million. Rogan, who is known for hosting a podcast where he gets high and talks about aliens, has dared to ask questions and hold discussions about coronavirus. Liberals accuse Rogan of spreading “misinformation” because he invited highly credentialed physicians on his podcast, which includes cardiologist Dr. Peter McCullough and Dr. Robert Malone who owns nine patents on the creation of mRNA vaccine technology. This has resulted in a collective meltdown for the Left. Numerous high-profile figures have expressed outrage and announced boycotts against Spotify, which hosts Rogan’s popular podcast. Rogan’s podcast is currently the most popular podcast in the country. He averages 11 million listeners per episode and reaches far more people than networks like CNN and MSNBC combined. CNN only recorded over a million viewers in its primetime slots in 2021 while MSNBC averaged 1.53 million. Rogan recently explained the controversy began because liberals are upset about “dangerous misinformation” that came from two episodes. He explained that one episode was “with Dr. Peter McCullough and one with Dr. Robert Malone. Dr. Peter McCullough is a cardiologist, and he is the most published physician in his field in history. Dr. Robert Malone owns nine patents on the creation of mRNA vaccine technology and is at least partially responsible for the creation of the technology that led to mRNA vaccines. Both these people are very highly credentialed, very intelligent, very accomplished people and they have an opinion, that’s different from the mainstream narrative. I wanted to hear what their opinion is.” “I had them on and because of that, those episodes in particular, those episodes were labeled as being dangerous, they had dangerous misinformation in them,” Rogan continued. “The problem I have with the term misinformation, especially today is that many of the things that we thought of as misinformation just a short while ago are now accepted as fact, like, for instance, eight months ago, if you said, ‘if you get vaccinated, you can still catch COVID and you can still spread COVID,’ you’d be removed from social media, they would they would ban you from certain platform,” he said. “Now, that’s accepted as fact. If you said, I don’t think cloth masks work, you would be banned from social media. Now that’s openly and repeatedly stated on CNN. If you said I think it’s possible that COVID-19 came from a lab, you’d be banned from many social media platforms – now that’s on the cover of Newsweek. All of those theories that at one point in time were banned, were openly discussed by those two men that I had on my podcast that had been accused of dangerous misinformation.”
  10. So on January 26, a fully vaccinated co-worker entered Mrs. SF's office coughing and hacking claiming she didn't have Covid since she was vaccinated. (Never mind her grand kids were positive, and she had them staying at her place, she then later tested positive) So started the SF run with Covid-19. By the Weekend (3 days) the onset of symptoms began and both the SF's got tested and were positive. SF's lifetime of travels all over the country and Canada had my immune system on point. I was ill (about like the flu with more aches than usual) for about a day and a half. Mrs. SF had the same but developed a persistent cough that lasted through the following week. Our doctor prescribed a z-pack for her and recommended the Monoclonal Antibodies treatment. Both the Elkhart and the Goshen hospitals receive a limited supply, so she was on the list, but not chosen. Come Sunday morning, her oxygen level dipped below 90%, so on the doctor's orders, I took her to the ER. Pneumonia was the diagnosis, and I was pissed. She had waited over a week for the MA transfusion, but was not "bad enough" so now she is admitted to the hospital where she spent the next 5 days, was treated with Remdesivir and various other meds & steroids (which thankfully she responded well to) just released on Friday. We are not "anti-vax", but she has had a chronic lung condition (sarcoidosis) for over 3 years and based on our doctor's recommendation she did not get vaccinated. (neither did I, even though I have every intention to before I get back on the road to tend to my Canada business). We plan to after the recommended 3-6 month span after having Covid. I was surprised at the array of precautions or non-precautions and PPE each different nurse and doctor exercised, from total gowns and masks to nothing but a mask considering it was Covid based care. It seemed like and the attending doctor confirmed we know it's a virus - and that's it. "We are still learning as we go - kinda like the flu, only worse in some cases".
  11. One has to wonder if Leslie Stahl would like to apologize to the former President for her remarks where he actually told her the FACTS about this incident, and she she denied it and then never followed up on the "new" information. (That is now a fact) or maybe she should just retire......
  12. https://nypost.com/2022/02/13/eyes-turn-to-hillary-clinton-not-trump-in-the-russiagate-scandal/ So there you have it. Russiagate, the collective delusion that Donald Trump was secretly a Russian agent aided and abetted by the Kremlin, the topic of uncountable inches of Washington Post and New York Times copy and the entire primetime lineup of MSNBC, was a dirty trick by the Hillary Clinton campaign. Not just part of it. All of it. One of the most diabolical, successful misinformation campaigns ever concocted. We already knew that the Steele dossier was garbage. Christopher Steele was paid indirectly by the Clinton campaign to dig up dirt, which he did by turning to other Clinton operatives, laundering every outlandish rumor about Trump he could find into an “investigative” document. He shopped it to the FBI, which couldn’t verify his sources or any of his stories, but the agency dragged out the investigation to cast maximum suspicion on the new president. In the meantime, Steele found willing accomplices in the media to push his propaganda. The dupes at BuzzFeed even decided to print the whole pack of lies, with the flimsy rationale of “Well, why not?” We got to the point where New York magazine was running a cover story that was one long piece of fan fiction that Trump was secretly a real-life version of “The Americans,” a sleeper agent now seated in the highest office in the land. The Times and Washington Post won a freaking Pulitzer! A made-up story Now another piece of Russia, Russia, Russia is kaputski. A computer server operated by Trump’s company was secretly communicating with a Russian firm, claimed Slate magazine and endless Twitter threads of would-be tech experts. But as special counsel John Durham outlines in his latest indictment, that was just a story made up by tech executive Rodney Joffe, who desperately wanted a job with the Clinton administration. He hacked Trump’s servers, cherry-picked privileged Internet data he had access to, and molded it to look like something nefarious. He was coached by lawyer Michael Sussmann — who was being paid by the Clinton administration, although he lied about that to investigators. Sussmann goes to the FBI as a “concerned citizen” — not a “Clinton stooge” — to try to get them to bite. The ultimate goal: Be able to leak to the Times that Trump is under official investigation. Durham “definitely showed that the Hillary Clinton campaign directly funded and ordered its lawyers at Perkins Coie to orchestrate a criminal enterprise to fabricate a connection between President Trump and Russia,” says Kash Patel, the former chief investigator for the House Intelligence Committee. Beyond outrageous Of course, Hillary didn’t get what she wanted — the presidency. But her operatives didn’t stop, going on CNN to give “very concerned” interviews about a theory they knew was bull. All to undermine Trump’s presidency. It would take three years for the Mueller report to finally put the lie to rest, and we’re now, five years out, at the point where Durham is detailing the full conspiracy. If this had happened to a Democrat, the press would be losing its mind. A candidate for president weaponized the nation’s Justice Department to pursue an investigation into their political opponent based on what they knew were lies. Americans were wiretapped! Some were entrapped for flimsy claims of perjury. The director of the FBI went into the Oval Office to tell the president that there was a sexual rumor floating around, so that it could be promptly leaked to the media. “Outrageous” doesn’t cover it. And still no shame from Hillary Clinton and her supporters, because it’s Donald Trump — anything is fair game to take him down. All these things we’ve been lectured about over the past four years: Norms being broken, internet misinformation, perversion of government — it was all happening. It was the Democrats who were doing it. Think anyone in the left-wing media will notice? Notice this story is basically showing up at one place......I don't think anyone else is going to notice.....
  13. https://nypost.com/2022/02/14/trump-blasts-media-for-ignoring-claims-clinton-spied-on-him/ Former President Donald Trump ripped the ”LameStream” media Monday for its failure to cover allegations by Special Counsel John Durham that Hillary Clinton’s 2016 presidential campaign paid an Internet company to spy on Trump. “Can you imagine that, what should be the biggest story of our time, bigger than Watergate, is getting absolutely no mention, ZERO, in the New York Times, Washington Post, ABC Fake News, NBC Fake News, CBS Fake News, ratings-dead CNN, and MSDNC,” the former president said in an emailed statement from his Save America PAC. “This in itself is a scandal, the fact that a story so big, so powerful, and so important for the future of our Nation is getting zero coverage from LameStream, is being talked about all over the world,” Trump added. The 45th president further accused the media of ignoring the “many Biden corruption scandals” before the 2020 election and “they won’t talk about this, which is potentially even bigger.” “It shows how totally corrupt and shameless the media is,” he continued. Durham, who was appointed by then-Attorney General William Barr in May 2019 to investigate the origins of the FBI’s Russia probe, filed documents Friday claiming that Clinton’s campaign paid an internet company to “infiltrate” computer servers at Trump Tower and the White House in an effort to link Trump to Russia. The filing pertained to conflicts of interests in the case of Michael Sussmann, a Clinton campaign lawyer, who is charged with lying to the FBI. Sussmann allegedly told then-FBI General Counsel James Baker that Sussmann wasn’t working for the Clinton campaign when he handed over documents in September 2016 that purportedly tied the Trump Organization to a Kremlin-connected bank. In fact, the indictment alleges, Sussmann had billed the Clinton campaign for calls and meetings with tech executive Rodney Joffe and the campaign’s general counsel, Marc Elias, in which they “coordinated and communicated” about the allegations “Can you imagine if the roles were reversed and the Republicans, in particular President Donald Trump, got caught illegally spying into the Office of the President?” Trump asked. “All hell would break loose and the electric chair would immediately come out of retirement. “The good news is, everybody is talking about not only this atrocity against our Nation, but that the press refuses to even mention the major crime that took place,” the former president said. Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio), the leading GOPer on the House Judiciary Committee, said Durham’s filing shows that Trump was right all along when he accused the Clinton campaign of spying on him and called Russian collusion allegations a hoax. “Yep, there was spying going on, and it was worse than we thought because they were spying on the sitting president of the United States,” Jordan told “Fox & Friends” Sunday. “And it goes right to the Clinton campaign. So God bless John Durham.” Hmmm - Was Trump REALLY right about this? Was it really a hoax after all? I mean did the Clinton Campaign actually spy on the Trump campaign with help from the Obama administration? Wasn't there some history of a campaign spying on another campaign? Watergate comes to mind......
  14. And so it begins.......Having predicted the drawdown of mask requirements and all the other Covid Panic issues to start in March of 2022, seeing the start.....
  15. Honest answer - Yep. By narrowing the field to a specific sex, Regan eliminated a large portion of qualified personnel....... Was it the right call? Yep. (IMHO)
  16. Isn't that Prejudice the very essence of "Racist AND Sexist"?
