USAID Funding Was Central to the Creation of COVID-19

All DOGE required was contact information of the recipients to confirm that funding was not fraudulent. No validated medical funding was stopped.

Anything that appeared to be legitimate lifesaving funding continued and is now administered by the State Department.

If anyone had actually died as a result of DOGE, their names would be worldwide headline news!

On the other hand, USAID did help fund the Wuhan Virology Institute, which caused the deaths of millions, and the revolution that started the Russia-Ukraine war.

Saturday, Silicon Valley Congressman Ro Khanna sat down with left-wing podcaster Jennifer Welch — who previously cheered on those celebrating the murder of Charlie Kirk — to discuss the future of “progressive” governance. In a now viral clip, Khanna claimed Elon Musk “possibly… pic.twitter.com/u6Cne9rvNZ

… sentenced to death” 4.5 million children by dismantling USAID, and demanded he be subpoenaed once Democrats retake power.

The number traces back to a Lancet study published last summer projecting 14 million deaths by 2030 from USAID cuts.

But the study assumes a fake world: one where DOGE’s cuts stay frozen through 2030, where the State Department’s lifesaving waiver doesn’t exist (it does), where Congress never refunds AIDS relief (it did), where two decades of clinics and supply chains vanish the second a grant lapses. It also conveniently ignores some former USAID functions (like funding gain-of-function research at the Wuhan Institute of Virology).

Meanwhile, NYU statistician Aaron Brown notes the study credits USAID with preventing 11 million more deaths than the entire global mortality decline over two decades.

@planetmaxwell interrogates the claim that Elon and DOGE single-handedly killed millions of children, and explains why Silicon Valley’s congressman is now laundering this as settled fact (when it’s really just propaganda).

Riddle me this, @RoKhanna. If closing USAID could cause so many child deaths in Africa, why would the African Union's top diplomat in DC celebrate USAID's shutdown? Does she like dead babies? Is she ignorant? How else do you explain her arriving at the same conclusion as DOGE? pic.twitter.com/fNVzT1FElM

In 2014, 300 scientists warned Anthony Fauci would start a global pandemic.

Following the high-profile escape of three bugs from U.S. labs, these 300 scientists sent a letter to President Obama, urging him to shut down Anthony Fauci's gain-of-function research.

Obama issued a… pic.twitter.com/EROxE4EKcU

… moratorium and shut down 18 of the worst projects by Anthony Fauci. In the end, he really didn't shut them down. Instead, Obama moved the research offshore to places like Ukraine, the former Soviet State of Georgia, and the Wuhan Institute of Virology in Wuhan, China.

Now, it is widely accepted that COVID-19 originated from that very lab in Wuhan, China.

Those 300 scientists were right about Fauci…

But the big question is, why are people like him so obsessed with creating dangerous pathogens in the first place?

Ro Khanna is now freaking out and desperately trying to backtrack after Elon threatened to sue him for lying that DOGE is responsible for millions of deaths

“Debate me instead of threatening lawfare!”

He should’ve thought about that before demanding Elon be subpoenaed and…

… investigated.

All the sudden he’s against lawfare.

Imagine that.
