Eighteen months ago, anyone who dared suggest the coronavirus leaked from a laboratory was censored by the corporate media and treated like an unhinged conspiracy theorist. But now the evidence is almost undeniable that sars-CoV-2 came from the Wuhan Institute of Virology, just as many people had already deduced. Earlier this year, Fox News anchor Bret Baier exposed disturbing new details about how public health officials deliberately misled the American public about the nature of covid-19. Now Fox News anchor Tucker Carlson is showing that no group has benefited more from the coronavirus pandemic than the government that controlled that lab: the Communist Party of China.

In his July 8 program, Carlson began, “Taking a look back for a moment: The coronavirus pandemic—that would be the virus itself and our government’s response to it—turns out to have been the single most destructive event to take place in the United States in our lifetime—so destructive that it’s going to be many years before we know for certain what the last 2½ years have cost all of us.”

Carlson recounted how the government’s reaction to the pandemic crashed the U.S. economy, caused America’s gross domestic product to fall by the biggest percentage since the Great Depression, pushed 22 million Americans into unemployment, and increased the national debt by nearly $10 trillion. It also caused school closures, anxiety, obesity, alcoholism, crime, drug overdoses and suicide, and it gave radical leftists a means of stealing the 2020 presidential election with fraudulent mail-in ballots.

More than two years ago, I wrote “The Cure Is Killing Us,” which explained that the draconian response to the outbreak came at “incalculable cost—to our economies, our livelihoods, our civil liberties and freedoms, our social cohesion, even mental and physical health.” I did not yet understand the role that the Obama administration and the World Economic Forum played in this pandemic. But I knew the World Health Organization was working with the Communist Party of China to cover up something big. And my father was repeatedly emphasizing that there was a direct attack underway against certain nations—the United States, Britain and other nations that descended from ancient Israel.

Now evidence has emerged that the coronavirus was deliberately engineered by Chinese Communists and that they were working with Dr. John P. Holdren, science and technology policy adviser to Barack Obama; Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of the U.S. National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases; as well as Dr. Peter Daszak, a British zoologist. My father lays out all this evidence in an appendix to his newly updated book America Under Attack. This appendix presents strong evidence that covid-19 is a bioweapon engineered for “fundamentally transforming” America. Carlson’s report highlights this same fact.

“On every level, covid crushed America,” Carlson continued. “Centuries-old traditions just evaporated. It’s a different country, and not a better one. But that doesn’t mean that everybody suffered under covid. Countless small businesses went under that devastated our middle class. But at the same time, thanks to the lockdowns, the tech monopolies thrived. Apple, Google, Amazon all saw their market caps explode. Jeff Bezos wound up much richer than ever before, not that he needed the money. But no group benefited more from the covid pandemic than the leaders of Communist China.”

Carlson reported that China’s economy is growing faster now than before the pandemic, and its gdp has reached its highest level ever. China is now in a position to overtake the U.S. as the world’s dominant economy.

“In other words, the coronavirus didn’t simply change the United States,” Carlson said. “The coronavirus changed the balance of power in the world forever. So when you think of covid that way—and that’s the way the people who run governments think about it, trust us—when you think of it that way, it becomes pretty obvious that this was more than an overhyped public health emergency. In fact, it may very well have been a crime—the greatest crime in history.”

No mainstream news presenter could have said that 18 months ago. Even the supposedly conservative executives at Fox News were banning such an idea. But now evidence is undeniable that covid-19 and governments’ reactions to it indeed constituted “the greatest crime in history.” sars-CoV-2 tipped the global balance of power away from America and toward Communist China. It also tipped the domestic balance of power away from citizens toward the federal government, away from Donald Trump and the Republican Party toward Barack Obama’s radical American Communist movement.

It is no exaggeration to say that the coronavirus crisis exposed the true nature of the Chinese Communist Party as nothing ever has and the true nature of America’s “deep state” like few things ever have.

The appendix titled “Was the Coronavirus Crisis Engineered?” in America Under Attack notes how Holdren bragged to Nature magazine about all the gain-of-function research and gene-editing the Obama administration was doing in Communist China. Anyone who knows biology knows that researching “gain of function” is a euphemism for researching bioweapons. So the Obama administration helped officials at the Wuhan Institute of Virology create a functioning virus that was then used to weaken America internationally and to empower the radical left domestically.

Dinesh D’Souza’s 2020 election documentary 2000 Mules displays geotracking and surveillance video evidence that at least 2,000 election criminals visited 10 or more drop boxes each and cast 5 million illegal mail-in ballots in Atlanta, Georgia; Detroit, Michigan; Milwaukee, Wisconsin; Philadelphia, Pennsylvania; and Phoenix, Arizona. This was enough fraud to steal the election from President Trump, but it never could have happened without the coronavirus pandemic. The covid-19 pandemic was a perverse boon to radical leftists.

Just days before President Trump was inaugurated in 2016, Dr. Fauci warned during a speech at Georgetown University Medical Center that a pandemic was coming. “No matter what, history has told us definitively that [outbreaks] will happen, because [facing] infectious diseases is a perpetual challenge,” Fauci said. “The thing we’re extraordinarily confident about is that we’re going to see this in the next few years.”

Does anyone else find it suspicious that immunoregulation bureaucrat Anthony Fauci was funding gain-of-function research while simultaneously preparing people’s minds to expect a pandemic? Dr. Fauci was not caught off guard by the pandemic. Neither were the elites at the World Economic Forum who helped America’s deep state respond to the covid-19 pandemic with extremely unconstitutional and un-American oppression.

American scholar Michael Rectenwald recently wrote an editorial for the Hillsdale College speech digest Imprimis that reveals how the World Economic Forum collaborated with the Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security in May 2018 to conduct Clade x, a simulation of a national pandemic response. After this simulation, the World Economic Forum again collaborated with Johns Hopkins and the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation in October 2019 to conduct Event 201, another simulation of a national pandemic response. Both simulations previewed almost every eventuality of the actual covid crisis, from lockdowns to mass unemployment to stimulus spending.

So it seems that former Obama administration officials were simultaneously working with officials at the Wuhan Institute of Virology to engineer a virus and officials at the World Economic Forum to engineer a lockdown. This should deeply concern every American citizen.

The founder of the World Economic Forum, Klaus Schwab, is the son of Eugen Wilhelm Schwab, who moved to Germany during the Third Reich and became a director at Escher Wyss AG, a company that used slaves to manufacture key nuclear bomb technologies for Adolf Hitler. Klaus Schwab was too young to be complicit in his father’s crimes, but look at his ideology and the changes he is pushing for in the world. His forum’s “stakeholder capitalism” is close enough to the “corporate socialism” of Nazi Germany and other fascist dictatorships to cause major concern, especially when you see it spreading so widely, so powerfully and so rapidly.

In “Coronavirus and the Holy Roman Empire,” my father explained that the coronavirus pandemic is helping Europe to unify under 10 leaders. Now evidence suggests that the son of a man who exploited slaves and almost gave Hitler nuclear weapons helped engineer Europe’s draconian response to this crisis. America is not the only nation with a deep state; Europe has one as well. The global balance of power is changing, and America is about to lose out.

American commentator Glenn Beck recently noted the role of the World Economic Forum and what it calls “the Great Reset.” “You’re going to see the crunching of this economy and the collapse of the dollar. … Everything, everything, about your life will be different soon,” he said. “They’re going to make a transition away from the U.S. dollar to a digital currency, one that can be tracked, controlled, manipulated and designed for, in the words of the White House, ‘equitable access to safe and affordable finance services.’ … [I]t will control you and your life, as well as remake all of society.”

Carlson thinks no nation benefited more from the covid-19 pandemic than Communist China. But time may yet prove that Europe and its rising Holy Roman Empire benefited even more. The details about the perpetrators are still being exposed, but the assessment that covid-19 was “the greatest crime in history” is spot-on. This pandemic has escalated Bible prophecy in just about every nation on Earth.

If you want to understand the sinister spirit behind the coronavirus, I highly recommend the third appendix in my father’s America Under Attack book, as well as his article “Coronavirus and the Holy Roman Empire.” Also make sure you subscribe to the Philadelphia Trumpet newsmagazine and the Trumpet Brief daily e-mail.
