The most important thing Robert Redfield said is being completely ignored
It wasn’t covid - it was ALL panic, lockdowns, and a pesky little shot
The most important thing you can say is “I love you.” Second is “I’m sorry.” Third is “I forgive you.” And fourth is “but the data says…”
On March 8th, as part of a congressional probe into the weaponization of government, and how public/private partnerships were used to circumvent the first amendment and silence (always correct!?) critics of the government response to, well, basically everything (from Afghanistan to covid to tax regulation and FED decisions), Robert Redfield, the former director of the CDC, laid out a series of massive concerns he has regarding the origins of covid-19.
You can find it all online or follow my favorite underground journalist @KanekoaTheGreat (Kanekoa.substack.com) for amazing coverage of much of the congressional hearing.
But here’s the specific clip I need you to listen too:
In it, Robert makes very clear the evidence that covid-19 not only leaked from the Wuhan institute of Virology, but, MUCH more important in my eyes, why it’s clear that it happened in September of 2019.
In my roughly 100,000 word essay on why I didn’t take the covid shot (as previously discussed, I will never refer to this as a vaccine, or “vaccine,” again) a key part of my argument on why I’ve always believed the covid hysteria to be nonsense is that the timeline simply didn’t work.
And now Robert has thrown a tanker full of gasoline onto my little bonfire of distrust.
We always knew covid-19 was first sequenced in 2019. You know how we know that? Well, if you can’t tell by reading the name, then I can’t help you. Which means we SHOULD have all known, that covid-19 had zero impact on all-cause mortality. We never quite accepted that, convincing ourselves that somehow a virus sequenced in 2019 was first found in January of 2020 (WHAT!?) and then further convincing ourselves that there WOULD have been all kinds of deaths it was just taking a while to spread (but then we argued it spread immediately, so it’s all a little confusing) and then once it did it basically killed everyone it was going to kill all at exactly the same time (literally in a 4 week period) and then ran away and hid. If you look at the data and you believe covid-19 caused the increase in mortality, that is your argument. You can pretend otherwise, but, as we always say, the data are what the data are, so that was your argument, at least in data form.
Only, now the hypothesis that covid-19 lead to any excess mortality at all just got a LOT flimsier (to be honest, it was always flimsy, but…)
Here is that pesky little all-cause chart from Europe (while US all-cause data is nonsense, the 2019 all-cause summary was published, and 2020 should be republished and closed to accurate here relatively soon, and both also show zero excess mortality until March of 2020…):

As we’ve discussed here on Substack many, many times, that sure was one insanely healthy flu season in ‘19-’20. Like, almost unimaginably mild. ‘17-’18 was reasonable, ‘18-’19 was spectacular, and ‘19-’20 was going to be the best one we’d seen in decades. And it was. Despite covid-19 beginning circulation, at the latest, in September of 2019 (studies suggest it was more likely August - https://medicalxpress.com/news/2020-06-coronavirus-emerged-summer.html) and European countries having sequenced it by December (https://www.reuters.com/article/health-coronavirus-italy-sewage/italy-sewage-study-suggests-covid-19-was-there-in-december-2019-idINL1N2DV2XE), meaning the actual spread was far and wide, we hadn’t seen any substantial increase in all cause mortality.
In the ultimate irony, on the day we locked down both the US and Europe (March 11, 2020) we had just seen one of the healthiest global weeks of the entire year. And one week later we had sacrificed 40k people at the altar of panic. And then another 40k the week after that. And then 20k the week after that. And then? And then we were totally back to normal. Weirdest. “Virus.” Ever.
Let’s recap:
If you’re interested in a much more substantial breakdown – give this a read:
If you’re not, well, hopefully it’s because you’ve already decided you’re going to err on the side of EXTREME pessimism about anything the conglomerate of government/MSM are telling you.
Please keep this in mind the next time those who stand to profit beyond your wildest dreams try to convince you something must be true that the data says clearly isn’t true.
Postlude:
If covid-19 wasn’t a big deal in terms of mortality, then why all the hubbub about the lab-leak you ask? The answer is so much simpler than people want it to be. Whether covid-19 killed 5 people or 5 million, Fauci and the Fauci-ites didn’t want their ongoing gain-of-function research threatened. And again, the timeline here matters significantly. Fauci and the Fauci-ites (basically the entire democratic establishment, including its voting base, became part of the Fauci-ites, which still makes me laugh) were fighting to bury the possibility of a lab leak at the same time Fauci was telling everyone they didn’t need masks and covid-19 wasn’t that big of a deal (because he literally KNEW it wasn’t, because they created it). That part is important. Fauci knew covid was irrelevant, but he still didn’t want to see a flu strand that was going to kill the same number of people very other flu strand kills naturally every year that had a genetic sequence that could be tied directly back to him. This was never about covid “the super virus!!!!” for Fauci, it was that ANY virus circulating in nature that literally had his fingerprints on it was going to be bad for his career. That’s it. It really is that simple.
That others in government are terrified little children and panicked, and then bad people do what bad people always do and saw an opportunity to exploit it for their benefit, specifically by cementing mail-in-voting so they could nationalize what they proved worked during the Democratic primary in NY (when they used mail-in-balloting to pick Biden over Bernie despite Bernie CLEARLY winning1) are independent of Fauci’s original motivation. That Fauci then succumb to his little man syndrome and gladly became the face of the pandemic response so he could build his celebrity and hopefully win that Nobel Prize he’d been pandering for for half a century was post-haste from his original intention of ensuring his little GoF endeavor didn’t get threatened just because some pesky, very unthreatening, virus had slipped out of a lab.
We love to complicate things – but generally the answer is so much simpler than we want it to be. In this case it’s very simple – covid-19 irrelevant at a societal level, but covid-19 as a viral strand with Fauci’s fingerprints on it very relevant to his personal endeavors (making billions of dollars through vaccine production), so bury it he did. And that’s why it matters. The same reason the Twitter files matter, and hiding Jan 6th tape matters, and feeling Afghanistan matters, and “Weapons of Mass Destruction” matters – because we’re being lied to so the rich and powerful can continue to abuse OUR wealth to cement their own wealth and power. That’s always why it matters.
“Overall, The Post found 534,731 ballots were disqualified in 23 states in the 2020 primary season. A similar analysis by NPR tracked 558,032 ballots that were rejected in 30 states. A large share of the rejected ballots tracked by The Post were in just two jurisdictions: California, which threw out more than 102,000, and New York City, which tossed more than 84,000.” - https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/rejected-mail-ballots/2020/08/23/397fbe92-db3d-11ea-809e-b8be57ba616e_story.html
Give this a read, and then go read about the specific rejection rate during the presidential election (was below .5%). How, with millions more votes, did they somehow become PERFECT at mail-in balloting? Well, very simply, they didn’t. The two largest big D Democratic machines in the country took it upon themselves to chose who the president should be (D’s hate Bernie like R’s hate Trump - or about exactly as much as d’s like Bernie and r’s like Trump). They rejected what they wanted to reject during the primaries, and kept everything they wanted to keep during the election. With mail-in-balloting it really is that simple. You have to love the irony that they specifically call out the margin of victory in Michigan in 2016 and how mail-in-balloting will more than determine the president. The easiest way to commit fraud is to just tell everyone you’re doing it.
