A year and change into the Golden Age — a deep, and thus far unquenched, thirst for justice among a huge portion of the MAGA base notwithstanding — the administration has prosecuted precisely zero COVID criminals.
What’s more, the Department of Justice, when Pam Bondi isn’t promising to prosecute Americans for “hate speech” or rolling out new schemes to cover up the Epstein, hasn’t scrounged up the time or energy to bother even investigating any of them.
No prosecutions, no investigations, no press releases.
Nothing but radio silence.
The guy running HHS, RFK Jr. wrote a big, beautiful book elaborately detailing the rampant criminality of Fauci and many, many of his co-conspirators.
And yet, nothing.
Rather, AG Pam Bondi seems far more interested in prosecuting phantom “hate speech” crimes and covering up for the Epstein class.
Were she inclined to do the job the base that put her in office would like her to do, however, she would have a plethora of legal implements at her disposal.
It is true that, for some federal crimes that these people likely committed — and we’re only discussing federal crimes, setting aside state-level statutes under which these people could be targeted — the statute of limitations has run its course and the window for prosecution has elapsed, being over six years out since the start of the pandemic and even longer from the pre-planning (the tabletop exercise Event 201 coincidentally timed in October 2019, just a few months before the lockdowns began, the illicit gain-of-function work on coronaviruses in offshore labs, etc.).
Criminal conspiracy — which these people provably engaged in — typically has a five-year statute of limitations.
The key provision, though, is that the clock on the five-year statute of limitations window for criminal conspiracy only commences once the conspiracy has concluded.
As the conspiracy — the shot mandates, the forced masking, the business closures etc. — arguably continued deep into 2023 and arguably even beyond, we’d still be well within the five-year window for prosecution.
“Conspiracy is a continuing offense. For statutes such as 18 U.S.C. § 371, which require an overt act in furtherance of the conspiracy, the statute of limitations begins to run on the date of the last overt act. See Fiswick v. United States, 329 U.S. 211 (1946); United States v. Butler, 792 F.2d 1528 (11th Cir. 1986). For conspiracy statutes which do not require proof of an overt act, such as RICO (18 U.S.C. § 1961) or 21 U.S.C. § 846, the government must allege and prove that the conspiracy continued into the limitations period. The crucial question in this regard is the scope of the conspiratorial agreement, and the conspiracy is deemed to continue until its purpose has been achieved or abandoned. See United States v. Northern Imp. Co., 814 F.2d 540 (8th Cir. 1987); United States v. Coia, 719 F.2d 1120 (11th Cir. 1983), cert. denied, 466 U.S. 973 (1984).
An individual’s “withdrawal” from a conspiracy starts the statute of limitations running as to that individual. “Withdrawal” from a conspiracy for this purpose means that the conspirator must take affirmative action by making a clean breast to the authorities or communicating his or her disassociation to the other conspirators. See United States v. Gonzalez, 797 F.2d 915 (10th Cir. 1986).”
So, who should the Department of Justice be investigating, assuming it was serious about pursuing justice?
· Peter Daszak. Former EcoHealth Alliance who acted as the conduit through which Fauci funneled NIAID funding to the Wuhan lab (after the Obama administration outlawed gain-of-function on American soil)
· Deborah Birx. The so-called “Scarf Lady” who ran the Trump White House response (into the ground)
Entire books can, and in some cases have, been written about each of these seedy characters, whose depravity stretches far further back in time than COVID; indeed, their lack of morals or decency was the qualifying features that catapulted them to the top of the Public Health™ apparatus in the first place.
None of these people, for the record, benefitted from the flurry of pardons issued by whoever was running the Biden autopen on his way out the door, with the exception of Anthony Fauci. And even Fauci’s pardon, if indeed if was signed via autopen as it appears to have been, is highly suspect.
All of which is to say: there is no excuse for the total lack of effort to punish these demons who perpetrated the greatest scam in world history and killed untold millions of people, and perhaps billions in the aggregate, in the process.
“Trust the experts,” we the peasants are exhorted by the governing authorities in all matters at all times – common sense, intuition, individual judgment be damned.
They never bother to explain why some experts are to be mindlessly obeyed while others are to be dismissed.
For instance, I don’t suppose MSNBC or The New York Times will be running articles beseeching us to listen to these 1,600 scientists who recently signed a declaration contradicting the official narrative surrounding something called “climate change.”
“A total of 1,609 scientists, professors and other scholars have signed on to a new declaration that argues there is no climate change crisis.
“There is no climate emergency” is the title of the declaration that consists of 53 pages’ worth of signatories from across the globe, including some Nobel Laureates and other researchers from prestigious universities. Other signers include engineers, attorneys and other professionals.
The declaration, published with its endorsers in mid-August, lists six main arguments against the alleged climate crisis, including that carbon dioxide is not a pollutant and is actually “plant food” and “the basis of all life on Earth.”*
Since late February 2022 Russia’s war with Ukraine has dominated the global headlines, but what may have been the most important incident in that conflict has received only a sliver of coverage in the Western mainstream media.
One year ago tomorrow a series of massive underwater explosions destroyed most of the $30 billion Russian-German Nord Stream Pipelines, probably Europe’s most important civilian energy infrastructure. All observers soon agreed that the blasts had been deliberate, likely constituting the greatest case of industrial terrorism in world history and an obvious act of war against Germany, NATO’s leading European member. And then in lock-step, nearly all Western media outlets declared that the Russians had destroyed their own pipelines, an action further demonstrating the dangerous insanity of President Vladimir Putin, our diabolical Moscow adversary. Only a handful of voices on the dissident fringe suggested otherwise.

But five months later the issue was suddenly resurrected. Across his half-century career, Seymour Hersh had established himself as America’s most renowned investigative journalist, and he now published one of his greatest exposes, a meticulously detailed account of how a team of American military divers had destroyed the pipelines, acting under the orders of the Biden Administration.

Despite Hersh’s towering reputation, virtually all our mainstream journalists scrupulously avoided mentioning those revelations. But many millions around the world read his article or watched his interviews, and the UN Security Council soon held hearings on the issue, with Prof. Jeffrey Sachs and former CIA Analyst Ray McGovern strongly endorsing Hersh’s conclusions.
