A report by the House Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic concludes Covid came from a lab. 4 years ago this would have ended the world. Today, no one even noticed.
Nailed it. There are many voices in the media, as well as politicians, that should never be trusted again, period. Many of these same folks - Cuomo, Scott Galloway, now want to re-write history and be extended "grace." They are not going to get it from me. I'll put COVID behind me once people like Fauci and Collins go to prison
I live in Kyiv among former Soviet citizens, who until three decades ago were systematically lied to. As Solzhenytsyn wrote, they knew they were being lied to. The liars knew they knew. And yet it persisted. Somehow life went on.
Andy Wakefield had me distrusting vaccines. Celia Farber's reporting on AIDS had me distrusting Fauci. Russiagate had me distrusting government in general. I was primed to believe Mikki Willis and Judy Mikowitz' Plandemic when it came out in 2020. There was no way we were going to get I the shots. We stood elbow to elbow, wearing our masks on our chins.
But, like good Soviets, we kept our counsel close. Spoke to friends, but didn't get loud and obnoxious. Those who did suffered the abuses you describe. We just went about our business raising children. Bribing school authorities as necessary, etc. etc.
We are immensely grateful to those of you who stuck their necks out to get at the truth. I ask a bit of appreciation, or at least understanding, for those of us whose first loyalty was to our families. We read, we understood, and we shared opinions, but cautiously. And our children, their eyes open, will repopulate the earth with their own skeptical, careful but optimistic children.
I just have to say, I can't see a picture of Stephen Colbert without retching. The guy is a media whore. I remember him from the Daley Show, where he played the part of a befuddled conservative baby boomer. He was bigoted and unfunny then, he's bigoted and unfunny now. His entire schtick is built on a foundation of hatred and intolerance.
Thank you for writing and reminding me of the truth.
I was dismissed by friends for bringing up herd immunity, and I caved to the pressure and got vaxxed. Actually, I believed Pfizer about their shot’s efficacy. I thought if we all got vaccinated, the world would go back to normal quickly. I was sick of the restrictions and thought they were garbage. I tried pressuring my husband into getting vaccinated and he kept refusing. Now, I’m glad he did and unhappy that I did. Two years ago, I went to the ED because I thought I was having a heart attack. My EKGs were normal but my blood has a marker for heart damage now. I haven’t had any earlier heart attack. I was told that I was having cramping of the intercostal muscles, given muscle relaxers, and sent home. I follow Dr. John Campbell on YouTube who was talking about sub-clinical myocarditis, and I believe I have that now, from the vaccine, and I’m angry.
I have friends who STILL mask. One of my friends refuses to sit indoors at a restaurant. They get all those frigging boosters. They still get COVID and they get really ill when they do. Poor fools. Even the mask boxes warn that they are not effective against virus particles.
I, too,share your mistrust of mainstream media except for the New York Post.
Apologies for this rant. Thank you for your encouragement to stand up and fight.
We were compelled to do a lot of stupid things during that period by our betters that were there to keep us safe. I think my favorite was the requirement to mask as you entered or walked about in a restaurant only to be allowed to remove the mask when seated at a table, at least that was the rule in NJ. Apparently, the Covid was very buoyant and you were safe at the lower level was the only thing I could figure.
The phrase that is still like nails on a blackboard to me that was used all the time was “out of an abundance of caution….”. Yes, out of an abundance of caution, we’re going to do really stupid things that make no sense and have no basis in reality. Oh, and if you don’t do them, we’ll arrest you.
The subcommittee report is important for officially stating what many of us already knew as you stated Chris. However in the end they put in the obligatory paragraph that the vaccine saved millions, blah, blah, blah. WTH?? Guess they couldn’t help themselves.
I am so grateful and thankful that I found your work.......you were a bright and sane light during Covid.......Your voice helped me keep my family safe during a dark time...again, many thanks.
Dear Chris, I started listening to your podcast first. Your voice, your thoughts, your guests kept me sane. I was openly shunned, and told out right I did not deserve any form of medical treatment on the grounds of being a 'Granny killer' - I saw no reason to respond, if asked, that I did not want a half baked incomplete trial tested dodgy quack potion.
To this day, not one of those people ever apologised.
We know why.
The Covid Crap was the biggest medic scam ever, to date. Worse, the 'prevention' destroyed businesses, destroyed homes, maimed and even killed. It caused immense damage to children with false mask mandates and stupid hyperactive unions.
I'm still dealing with the Covod Crap fall-out in my family.
Covid Crap. UN. WHO. mRNA. The medics. The regulators. Our Governments. Bin the lot.
This is still relevant, because I am still getting emails and texts from MAYO Clinic to come in right now and get another Covid booster shot. The covid shot must be a real profit generator for them? I feel like Mayo Clinic has lost a lot of credibility in the last 4 years. You would think they would be more interested in researching vaccine injuries and deaths, instead of still pushing more Covid vaccines in December, 2024.

This is why I have been a listener and supporter of yours for years. Also, the two drink minimum just cracked me up every time.
And the hike to 3 drink minimum, which surely now stands at 4?
Haha! True that!
Thank you!

Thanks having the courage to say in public what a number of us thought in private, but avoided the risk / pain of the public forum 👍
Hooray for as Taylor Lorenz would put it, “raw-dogging” the air. 😂
And yet no one will be held directly accountable who should be held directly accountable
We know the names.
We know where they are.
These people should be held to account eventually.

And Fauci deserves a fair trial by a “Nuremberg” Tribunal and then execution by Firing Squad.
The trial, yes. Bullets - no.
Mr Fauci deserves to spend his last days on earth in prison. Even then I doubt he will ever recognise the damage his did.
