Former NIH Chief of Staff Denies Suppressing Lab Leak Theory Amid Pandemic Censorship Allegations
Carrie Wolinetz, past Chief of Staff of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), asserted in no uncertain terms last Thursday that there was no suppression of the lab leak theory throughout the Covid-19 drama. This denial, made during the Senate Homeland Security hearing, came in response to queries from Senator Josh Hawley, a Missouri Republican, regarding her potential role in suppressing the theory – suggesting that the virus was inadvertently released from a lab in China – across internet platforms.
Hawley sought to ascertain if Wolinetz had any regrets about not resisting supposed censorship attempts orchestrated by her then-superior, NIH’s previous Director Francis Collins, or Dr. Anthony Fauci. Hawley asked Wolinetz directly, putting forth, “Do you regret your role in helping censor millions of Americans who were kicked off social media, who were disciplined at work for saying ‘maybe a lab was involved?’” Her response was firm, maintaining that she never played the role he suggested. When posed with the question of whether she regretted not standing against such censorship, Wolinetz adamantly reiterated, “I don’t believe censorship took place, sir.”
In light of her insistence that no such suppression efforts had been carried out, Senator Rand Paul of Kentucky responded by revealing Wolinetz would not be considered for a role in a proposed board – introduced by himself and aimed at overseeing federal funding for high-priority life sciences research and assuring agency accountability – under the Executive Branch.
Despite Wolinetz’s denial, evidence and instances that hint at a strict censorship regime have surfaced. One significant account of such censorship involves Facebook labeling and suppressing stories relating to the controversial lab leak theory a “false.” The Biden Administration even called for curbing “misinformation,” an action that included requests to Facebook to limit private conversations on WhatsApp, as revealed by emails from 2023 under the lawsuit: Missouri v. Biden, (later Murthy v. Missouri) revolving around freedom of speech.
The release of the Twitter Files further unveiled Twitter’s broadened practice of handling content moderation requests from various federal and state agencies, the State Department, and the intelligence community during the pandemic. This collaboration between the government and social media magnates reportedly involved restricting the Hunter Biden laptop story, blacklisting prominent conservative figures, and subtly restricting conservative content. Records obtained by the House Republicans expose another probable suppression effort wherein Fauci’s advisor David Morens toned down the lab leak hypothesis at Fauci’s directive as per the instructions documented in the files.

Archbishop Viganò Suggests Assassination Attempt on Trump Due to His Anti-Globalist Stance
(LifeSiteNews) — Archbishop Carlo Maria Viganò tweeted in support of former President Donald Trump after an attempt on his life at a Saturday rally, suggesting that “anti-globalist” policies link state leaders who have been targeted for assassination.
Adding to the previous criminal attacks against avowedly anti-globalist political leaders, is now this terrible attempt to eliminate President Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrump , the leading opponent of the radical globalist Left.

“Adding to the previous criminal attacks against avowedly anti-globalist political leaders, is now this terrible attempt to eliminate President Donald J. Trump, the leading opponent of the radical globalist Left,” Viganò wrote in a Sunday X post.
The archbishop pointed out that Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico and Hungarian Prime Minister Victor Orbán have suffered “similar criminal attacks,” and share with Trump a “staunch opposition to the New World Order” and “defense of national sovereignty.”
Fico was shot five times in an assassination attempt in May, only a few days after his government announced that it would not support the WHO’s Pandemic Agreement. Slovakia’s health minister declared the country would not sign any agreements weakening the nation’s sovereignty. Slovakia has also halted arms deliveries to Ukraine, refusing to align with NATO objectives in the region.
As president, Trump sought to preserve U.S. sovereignty through actions such as barricading the southern border against illegal immigrants and withdrawing the nation from the Paris climate accord in 2017, an agreement that focused on international governance and enforcement of high-cost global warming theory fixes.
“The subversive diabolical power of the international deep state is evident, is there for all to see. Its crimes against God and humanity can no longer be hidden,” Viganò continued. “I urge all Catholics, American patriots and people of good will to pray (to) Our Lord in this time of great threat looming over the world.”
Viganò has frequently warned against the efforts of the “deep state” and “deep Church” to establish a New World Order that will negate national sovereignty under a totalitarian international government with a single global currency and a one-world religion. The “control of citizens under the pretext of a pandemic, and the reduction of the population through the use of vaccines with new technologies” are key parts of these efforts, according to Viganò.

Think Tank Pushes International Alliance to Censor ‘Fake News’
The Japanese chair of the Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS) has come out with a report calling for the US and Japan to team up on “combating disinformation.”
Christopher B. Johnstone also wants the two countries to engage in several censorship techniques, such as removing content (“false narratives” – regular censorship) but also a considerably more dystopian one known as “prebunking.”
That would be, suppressing narratives by revealing them as “misinformation” before they become public, thus eroding the very perception of their trustworthiness, while equating this as introducing “mental antibodies” into a population, and other outlandish language has been used in the past to justify the tactic.
CSIS mentions in a press release announcing the report that Johnstone had a meeting with Japanese Ministry of Foreign Affairs Director of Public Diplomacy Strategy Division Hideaki Ishii, “to discuss how the United States and Japan can cooperate to address this critical challenge” (namely, combating “disinformation”).
Not for nothing – CSIS is not your run-of-the-mill nonprofit, and access to government structures in other countries is not surprising, given its origins and image as one of those think tanks that have an oversized influence on US foreign policy.
Now, CSIS wants Japan and the US to tackle “information operations” such as (real or labeled as such) disinformation threats. The report seeks to establish an agenda to increase this collaboration and mentions that the paper includes “the results of a closed-door conference held at CSIS in February” – attended by “experts” from both countries.
The part of the report that addresses strategies to counter the threat, defined by CSIS, includes public education and media literacy, AI (as a tool of censorship – but without failing to mention the same tech as supposedly a grave threat to democracies when it’s used to create deepfakes).
Another thing CSIS likes is “fact-checking” (while critical of Japan as being “somewhat late” to this particular game), as well as debunking.
And then, there’s “prebunking” which CSIS chooses to describe as a method that proactively issues “forewarnings” and also “preemptively refutes false narratives.”
Coming back to Earth a little bit, so to speak – in terms of championing more conventional information control tools, the CSIS strategy lastly mentions “labeling, transparency, and risk monitoring.”

NANNY VEHICLES: New Cars in Europe to Automatically Reduce Engine Power if Driver is Speeding
The surveillance state is expanding in Europe after new rules came into effect on July 7, 2024, that force automobile manufacturers to control how fast people are allowed to drive their own new cars.
From now on, all new cars sold in Europe must be outfitted with Intelligent Speed Assistance (ISA) systems that automatically limit vehicle speeds to match legal limits. A massive network of GPS and cameras will ensure compliance.
“The system alerts drivers to slow down and can reduce engine power if limits are exceeded,” reported Great Game India about the change, noting that it was hatched by European Union (EU) leaders, many of whom are unelected.
The official claim from government officials is that ISA systems will reduce accidents and fatalities. Opponents say this is not the case as they further warn that ISA systems will interfere with driver control and vehicle reliability, which will only cause more problems for European society.
For now, the United Kingdom is exempt from the rule, though there is chatter that UK officials will follow suit with their own version of the same law in the coming days.
(Related: Ever since Wuhan coronavirus [COVID-19] “vaccines” were unleashed through Operation Warp Speed, “vaccidents” on roadways have soared.)
Total authoritarian control
A combination of GPS data, satellite navigation, speed sign recognition cameras and forward-facing cameras will now be used to determine how fast a car should go in a given area. If a driver tries to exceed the posted speed, the ISA system on his car will kick in and slow the car.
Drivers on the M1, for instance, would be limited to a maximum speed of 70 mph. Should a driver push the gas pedal beyond that speed, ISA technology automatically reduces engine power until compliance with the posted speed limit is achieved.
As most drivers probably know, there are times when one might need to exceed the posted speed limit for safety reasons, i.e., to swerve around an out-of-control vehicle in order to avoid a major accident. ISA systems will prevent drivers from protecting themselves by limiting their speed regardless of driving conditions.
All of this is happening thanks to a 2019 ruling by the European Parliament to mandate ISA technology as a way to make society “safer.” The European Transport Safety Council claims that ISA technology may reduce car crashes by 30 percent and injuries by 20 percent with the eventual goal of eliminating all road deaths by 2050.
Starting on July 6, 2022, all new vehicle models released to the market for the first time had to include ISA technology. Now, as of July 7, 2024, all new vehicles period will need to comply with the ISA technology mandate.
“This means that manufacturers will have to install the technology on some older cars, such as the Volkswagen Touran, which has been on sale in its current iteration since 2015,” Great Game India explains.
The UK’s Department of Transport (DfT) has said that for now it will not be enforcing any kind of speed-limiting technology across its jurisdiction. That could eventually change, though.
“We are constantly carrying out research into how transport users across all modes can benefit from the latest technology, ensuring journeys are safe, reliable and cut emissions,” said a representative from DfT.
Even without an ISA technology mandate in place, it is likely that vehicle manufacturers will voluntarily install it in UK models. Volvo started installing speed limiters on all new cars sold in the UK in early 2020, for instance, when everyone was distracted by and panicking about the COVID “plandemic.”

Elon Musk Exposes EU’s Censorship Demands
Elon Musk has suggested that the European Union attempted to coerce him with an underhanded deal to secretly implement censorship within his platform. Musk further added that EU-designed negotiations were accepted by other online platforms. However, he outrightly rejected the concealed deal.
On Friday, the EU made strides in evidencing the potency of its fresh Digital Services Act (DSA) by launching an attack on X, which is owned by Musk.
The group accused X of being in violation of specific EU regulations and threatened the platform with punitive fines. In response to this, Musk was quick to counter-attack by criticizing the DSA as a “canned misinformation” source. He further revealed that the EU had solicited a clandestine deal with him for entering into censorship pertaining to the EU’s directives.

In his revelation, Musk stated, “The European Commission offered [X] an illegal secret deal: if we quietly censored speech without telling anyone, they would not fine us.” He assured his stance by saying, “The other platforms accepted that deal,” however, he did not agree to participate. He also expressed his anticipations for the future, saying, “We look forward to a very public battle in court, so that the people of Europe can know the truth.”

The European Union criticized X for its lack of transparency and pointed out that social media platforms are obligated to counteract “illegal content” as well as “risks to public security” as per its regulations. Furthermore, the EU claimed that it was discontent with the X’s blue check system, deeming it incompatible with the “industry practice.”
In case of non-compliance with EU’s stipulations, X could face repercussions, including a potential fine equivalent to six percent of its total global turnover.
