Earlier today I wrote about the Sunday Times’ blockbuster story about the real origins of the COVID virus and the manner in which it was released into the population, presumably by accident.

The US government paid for research that engineered COVID, the Chinese military bioweapons researchers got secretly involved, and the engineered virus escaped from an unsafe lab.

The story is huge. Tens of millions of people died from COVID-related diseases. The virus was, indeed, engineered. The research behind it was at first internationally funded (and remained so), and the Chinese military got involved in the project. The United States funded the research, despite being warned that it was horribly dangerous and that the lab was unsafe. The EcoHealth Alliance provably lied to get grant money.

A massive coverup by US and Chinese government officials hid the facts, although if you pieced together the puzzle the general outline of the timeline and the scheme to cover it up were clear.

Yet as of this writing, not one single US mainstream media news source has covered the story. There are reports in the UK and elsewhere, but in the United States, there has been a blackout in the major media.

The Sunday Times is not a tabloid. It is the oldest newspaper in the UK and is widely respected. It is not known for ideological bias–it has endorsed both major parties and even endorsed Barack Obama in 2012. The New York Times and many newspapers around the world are named after it–literally, this is the first newspaper called The Times and is one of the gold standards in journalism.

The story is the product of months of research and is deeply sourced, including US State Department investigators who actually went to Wuhan to investigate the case. The paper trail is there. The sources are there. Both public and secret documents back it up. Much of it was publicly established in the past.

In other words, it is not a conspiracy theory from a sketchy source that is easily dismissed.

What it is, though, is grossly inconvenient for the MSM, the US government, and the bureaucrats who funded the research and covered it up.

So the US public must be prevented from seeing this. I did a Google search on Wuhan and not one US news source popped up. Not one. The UK and India, and I would expect it will filter out to the world. It has been a day and a half since the story was published.

The easiest way to suppress the story is simply to ignore it. Sure, many people will see it–although the number is few, since the Sunday Times’ readership is not large in the US, even though it is one of the larger circulation foreign newspapers in the US. So those of us who do see it and talk about it will sound like freaks and conspiracy theorists.

You know the drill: you tell a friend about a bombshell–like the Israeli government was forced to release a report showing that nobody who was healthy and under 49 died from COVID. Not one. People with comorbidities did, but not healthy people. Yet you tell somebody that and they will scoff–it contradicts their priors and, of course, if it were true then it would be widely reported, right?

Right? Big news obviously would get reported.

Except, obviously, it doesn’t. One of the biggest news stories in the world has faced a US blackout for more than a day.

Do you believe that major newspaper reporters don’t know about the story? Of course, they do.

Do you think they disbelieve it? Perhaps some do, but most surely don’t. And not one of them would think the allegation isn’t newsworthy. The uncorroborated Steele Dossier, proven false, was covered relentlessly for years. Every hate crime hoax is endlessly covered. Verifying facts is inconvenient, so they ignore them anyway.

The blackout has one reason: it contradicts the Narrative™. That’s it.

The regime media exists for one purpose in modern America: to support the regime. This is not speculation anymore; it is clearly true. Chances are decent that the Sunday Times story will become a blockbuster in the UK and be memory-holed in the US, which is where the trail starts and the only place where accountability can occur. The UK didn’t do this.

Anthony Fauci did, along with others. He covered it up, with the help of the US intelligence apparatus. And the MSM is covering up for him.

In a few years, when it no longer matters, books will be written by the same reporters currently ignoring the story. They will make a mint, and people will be shocked, but it will be old news. A historical event, not a public policy issue.

Everybody involved will skate. The US government has restarted its partnership with the EcoHealth Alliance, and everybody who matters is happy.

Undoubtedly a few Republicans will do an investigation, but the media will call their charges “debunked” and “conspiracy theories,” which is what they always do.

Millions of people died, and the people in charge and the ones who can hold them accountable simply don’t care.
