FBI Scientist Claims Biden Regime Silenced Lab Leak Evidence Linking COVID-19 to Wuhan Facility

In a shocking revelation, former FBI senior scientist Dr. Jason Bannan has claimed that the Biden administration deliberately sidelined critical evidence linking the origins of COVID-19 to a lab leak at the Wuhan Institute of Virology.

Despite years of denial and censorship from government agencies, Big Tech, and mainstream media, the lab-leak theory—once dismissed as a conspiracy—has gained substantial traction, now supported by findings from the FBI and other experts.

Since the onset of the global COVID-19 pandemic, government officials and medical institutions have fervently dismissed the lab-leak hypothesis, labeling it a “conspiracy theory.”

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the World Health Organization (WHO), and Dr. Anthony Fauci have repeatedly downplayed the possibility of a lab leak, insisting instead that the virus was transmitted from animals to humans.

Meanwhile, Big Tech and mainstream media giants have censored discussions on the topic, banning and discrediting voices that dared to question the official narrative.

Earlier this month, the Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic concluded its two-year investigation into the COVID-19 crisis, unveiling its final report titled “After Action Review of the COVID-19 Pandemic: Lessons Learned and a Path Forward.”

FBI Found Evidence Covid Was Lab Leak But Was Not Allowed to Brief President

The FBI found evidence suggesting that COVID-19 was caused by a lab leak but were not allowed to brief the president, it has been claimed. The Telegraph has more.

Jason Bannan, a doctor of microbiology and former senior scientist at the FBI, has dedicated more than a year of his life to discovering the origins of Covid.

But despite being the only U.S. national intelligence agency to conclude that a lab leak was likely, the FBI and Mr. Bannan were snubbed from a National Intelligence Council briefing with Joe Biden, it has been claimed.

Mr. Biden had ordered an urgent investigation in May 2021 by U.S. intelligence agencies and national laboratories to identify whether the virus had been transferred from an animal to a human or had escaped from a Chinese laboratory.

One of the most popular theories at the time was that it had been transferred from a bat at a “wet market” in Wuhan, where the virus first emerged in 2019.

The National Intelligence Council (NIC), a body of senior intelligence officers that organised the review, had concluded with “low confidence” that COVID-19 had been transmitted from an animal to a human, along with four intelligence agencies.

This was then presented by Avril Haines, the Director of National Intelligence (DNI), and two of her senior analysts, to President Biden and his top aides in August 2021.

The FBI had not only concluded a lab leak was likely but that it had “moderate confidence” in its assessment – more than any other agency – and had expected to make this case to the White House but no officials from the agency were invited to do so.

In his first interview, Mr. Bannan told the Wall Street Journal: “Being the only agency that assessed that a laboratory origin was more likely, and the agency that expressed the highest level of confidence in its analysis of the source of the pandemic, we anticipated the FBI would be asked to attend the briefing.

“I find it surprising that the White House didn’t ask.”

The government’s COVID con gave us a million American caskets

The Wall Street Journal’s COVID bombshell exposes how federal agencies carried out the biggest scientific con of the century.

From the very start of the COVID pandemic in America, federal bureaucrats and politicians rushed to suppress evidence that the pandemic originated from a Chinese government lab bankrolled by US government agencies.

In 2021, key Biden administration officials effectively exonerated the Chinese government, even though Beijing had completely stonewalled any outside investigation into the origin of the COVID-19 virus.

The FBI’s top expert concluded that the virus leaked from the lab — but he was side-railed by the Biden administration, blocked from presenting evidence at a key White House meeting in August 2021. Three scientists at the National Center for Medical Intelligence, part of the Pentagon’s Defense Intelligence Agency, also concluded that COVID leaked from a lab, but they were muzzled. The inspector general is conducting an investigation to determine why those experts were silenced.

Biden admin covered up intel revelations of COVID-19 lab origins: WSJ report

Biden administration officials suppressed information that was obtained by intelligence agencies that supported the Covid-19 “lab-leak” theory, according to a new report from the Wall Street Journal. The report showed that there is evidence of a cover-up as to the origins of the virus and that the spike protein that enables the Covid virus to infiltrate cells was lab made.

A Wall Street Journal investigation found that Jason Bannan, a Ph.D.in microbiology, was recruited by the FBI after the 9/11 attacks in order to bring expertise on topics such as biological and chemical weapons. He was told by superiors that he would be brought in to brief President Joe Biden when the Covid-19 virus was rampant in the US in 2021. 

However, he was never summoned to join the briefings with Biden. Out of the multiple agencies that investigated the origin of the pandemic, the FBI was the only agency to determine that there was a “moderate confidence” that it came from a lab. The four other departments said that the pandemic had an animal origin, but each had “low confidence” in their findings, per the outlet.  

Biden was briefed by National Intelligence Director Avril Haines in August 2021 after a 90-day review that the White House had ordered to investigate the origins of the virus starting in May that year. However, the FBI was not asked to attend the meeting. The other four agencies attended and told the president that the pandemic had come from an animal.  

“Being the only agency that assessed that a laboratory origin was more likely, and the agency that expressed the highest level of confidence in its analysis of the source of the pandemic, we anticipated the FBI would be asked to attend the briefing,” Bannan said in a recorded interview. “I find it surprising that the White House didn’t ask.” 

The Director of National Intelligence (DIA) told the outlet that it was no standard practice to invite representatives from each agency and that each view on the pandemic was represented in the meeting Biden.  

“The Office of the Director of National Intelligence and the National Intelligence Council’s work on Covid-19 origins complied with all of the Intelligence Community’s analytic standards, including objectivity,” a spokesperson said.

Who Is Wei Cai, German Public Health’s ‘Hidden’ Scientist from Wuhan?

So, who exactly is Wei Cai, the scientific staff member of Germany’s public health authority, the Robert Koch Institute (RKI), who, as revealed in hitherto hidden minutes of the institute’s “COVID-19 Crisis Group,” comes from none other than Wuhan? And when I say “hitherto hidden minutes,” I mean hidden precisely in the ostensible leak of the unredacted “RKI Files.” For, as I discussed in a recent article, the file in question was not included among the supposedly “complete minutes” assembled by Aya Velazquez, the prostitute-turned-journalist and anti-Covid-measure activist who unveiled the documents at a highly-publicised press conference in Berlin on July 23rd.

As discussed in a postscript to that article, although I have asked her, I have not received a coherent answer from Velazquez as to how she could have overlooked these minutes, which are indeed the minutes of the very first RKI “crisis group” meeting of which we have a public record.

Be that as it may, the reason why the revelation of the RKI’s link to Wuhan is important – and why German authorities may have preferred that it remain secret – is because, as I have documented in, among other places, my ‘The Greatest Story Never Told,’ Germany in fact had a very active publicly-funded research partnership in virology with several research institutions in Wuhan, including the Wuhan Institute of Virology (WIV).

Indeed, the German-Chinese virology network, known as the “Sino-German Transregional Collaborative Research Centre” or TRR60, gave rise to a full-fledged German-Chinese virology lab, not only right in Wuhan but indeed right in what is regarded as the area of the initial outbreak of Covid-19 in the city. For this and other (microbiological) reasons outlined in my ‘The Smoking Gun in Wuhan,’ the members of the German-Chinese virology partnership ought to be prime suspects in any genuine investigation into a possible laboratory origin of SARS-CoV-2.  But, instead, they have been completely ignored in favour of suspects in far-off places like Chapel Hill, North Carolina.

The below photo shows various members of the partnership, as well as associated German and Chinese luminaries in the field of virology. It was taken in 2015 at a “Sino-German Symposium on Infectious Diseases” in Berlin organised by the German Co-Director of TRR60, Ulf Dittmer. Dittmer is the bald man in the middle of the picture. None other than Christian Drosten, the German designer of the ‘gold standard’ SARS-CoV-2 PCR test, and Shi Zhengli, the WIV’s renowned bat coronavirus expert, can be seen together in the lower left-hand corner of the picture.

Trump’s China dilemma

Gaza, Haiti, Iran, Israel, Lebanon, Russia, Syria, Ukraine, and Venezuela: President-elect Donald Trump will face no shortage of foreign-policy challenges when he assumes office in January. None, however, comes close to China in scope, scale, or complexity. No other country has the capacity to resist his predictable antagonism with the same degree of strength and tenacity, and none arouses more hostility and outrage among MAGA Republicans. In short, China is guaranteed to put President Trump in a difficult bind the second time around: he can either choose to cut deals with Beijing and risk being branded an appeaser by the China hawks in his party, or he can punish and further encircle Beijing, risking a potentially violent clash and possibly even nuclear escalation. How he chooses to resolve this quandary will surely prove the most important foreign test of his second term in office.

Make no mistake: China truly is considered The Big One by those in Trump’s entourage responsible for devising foreign policy. While they imagine many international challenges to their “America First” strategy, only China, they believe, poses a true threat to the continued global dominance of this country.

“I feel strongly that the Chinese Communist Party has entered into a Cold War with the United States and is explicit in its aim to replace the liberal, Western-led world order that has been in place since World War II,” Representative Michael Waltz, Trump’s choice as national security adviser, declared at a 2023 event hosted by the Atlantic Council. “We’re in a global arms race with an adversary that, unlike any in American history, has the economic and the military capability to truly supplant and replace us.”

As Waltz and others around Trump see it, China poses a multi-dimensional threat to this country’s global supremacy. In the military domain, by building up its air force and navy, installing military bases on reclaimed islands in the South China Sea, and challenging Taiwan through increasingly aggressive air and naval maneuvers, it is challenging continued American dominance of the Western Pacific. Diplomatically, it’s now bolstering or repairing ties with key U.S. allies, including India, Indonesia, Japan, and the members of NATO. Meanwhile, it’s already close to replicating this country’s most advanced technologies, especially its ability to produce advanced microchips. And despite Washington’s efforts to diminish a U.S. reliance on vital Chinese goods, including critical minerals and pharmaceuticals, it remains a primary supplier of just such products to this country.

Bombshell Photos Reveal Joe and Hunter Biden’s Ties to Chinese Officials

It’s hardly news that Joe Biden is a liar. And lately, he’s actually being called out for it. After repeatedly denying he would pardon his son Hunter, he went ahead and did it anyway—as anyone could have predicted. Another lie he repeated often was that he never discussed business deals with Hunter. 

The evidence proving he was lying has been out there for a long time now, but new photos released this week further undermine Joe’s claims. 

The National Archives released a series of photos showing Joe Biden, during his vice presidency, meeting with Chinese officials and Hunter Biden’s business associates. This release came after mounting pressure from the conservative group America First Legal and raises serious questions about Joe Biden’s repeated denials of involvement in his son’s business dealings.

The photos, taken during a 2013 taxpayer-funded trip to Asia, feature Hunter Biden engaging with high-ranking Chinese officials, including President Xi Jinping and Vice President Li Yuanchao. Joe Biden is also pictured alongside Hunter’s business associates, including Jonathan Li, a Chinese businessman tied to controversial dealings involving the transfer of stealth technology to a blacklisted Chinese military manufacturer. 

These images not only contradict Joe Biden’s claims of ignorance regarding Hunter’s business affairs but also cast a shadow over his role in facilitating these connections during his time in office.

The release of these photos didn’t come easily. According to America First Legal, lawyers for both Joe Biden and Barack Obama worked to prevent their release, particularly before the 2024 election.

China has Banned US Exports of Key Minerals for Computer Chips – Leaving Washington with Limited Options

China recently banned the export of the minerals gallium and germanium to the US amid growing tensions between the two countries on trade.

The minerals are of critical economic value because they are used in computer chips, in military technology such as night vision goggles, and in the renewable energy industry, where they are important for manufacturing electric vehicles and solar cells. All of these areas are very sensitive sectors for the US and EU.

China has overwhelming market power over supply, because it is the source of 98% of primary gallium and 91% of primary germanium. Primary refers to “raw” sources such as mineral ore. In several sectors where the minerals are used, there are no substitutes for them.

Gallium and germanium are present in very low concentration as byproducts of major minerals – they’re known as trace minerals. Germanium’s primary source is the residue from zinc refineries and coal fly ash (a powdered residue produced when coal is burnt in power plants).

Gallium is mainly produced as a byproduct of bauxite ore (which is the main source for aluminium) as well as the processing stage to extract aluminium from bauxite.

The Chinese ban on exports of these minerals to the US closely followed Washington’s third crackdown in three years on China’s semiconductor (computer chip) industry. The US wants to curb exports of advanced chips to China that could be used in applications that threaten America’s security.

For example, advanced chips could be used in electronic warfare applications that make use of artificial intelligence (AI), or in advanced weapons systems such as hypersonic missiles. China said its ban on gallium and germanium was because of the minerals’ “dual military and civilian uses”.

According to a report in Reuters in 2023, the US Department of Defense holds a strategic stockpile of germanium, but no reserves of gallium. In October 2024, the US Geological Survey (USGS) estimated that a total ban on the export of gallium and germanium could result in a US$3.4 billion loss to US GDP.

It Turns Out Fang Fang Wasn’t the Only Chi Com Spy in California Politics

California is fertile ground for what the Chinese Communist Party spies call “elite capture” of American politicians. It didn’t begin or end with California Congressman Eric Swalwell’s Fang Fang, either, not by a long shot. 

There’s Joe and Hunter Biden’s cozy relationship and payoffs from the Chinese Communist Party (CCP)-connected corporations; California Senator Dianne Feinstein’s 20-year-long relationship with her aide and chauffeur, the Chinese spy; California Congressman Eric Swalwell’s paramour and political advisor Fang Fang; a former anti-Second Amendment California state senator who brokered guns to the underworld; and now this. 

Now, a campaign manager for a 2022 California city council candidate is in the FBI crosshairs. 

The FBI reported that an unnamed city council member in an undesignated city won office in 2022 with the help of a Chinese spy. Reading the entrails left behind in the somewhat cryptic 24-page indictment, the effort shows the spying happened in San Bernardino’s Chino Hills —since the spy claimed to have lived with the council member. 

The unidentified Chino Hills 2022 City Council candidate, who was an apparent pawn of the Chi-Coms whether he knew it or not, was not indicted. The FBI says the investigation continues.

The council member’s campaign manager, who claimed to live at the candidate’s home, is Mr. Yaoning “Mike” Sun. Sun worked with his PRC handler in L.A., John Chen, and a “Big Boss” in the PRC and acted as unregistered foreign agents in the U.S.

Beijing Designs Military For War With U.S., Including Missiles, Cyber-Enabled Psychological Weapons

The Chinese People’s Liberation Army has added hundreds of new missiles and 100 more nuclear warheads as part of a military buildup designed for a war with the United States, according to a Pentagon report made public Wednesday.

For the first time, the survey of Chinese military power reveals extensive PLA preparations for sophisticated information warfare operations against the United States, including the use of deepfake online posts and cyber-enabled psychological warfare. Pentagon analysts said the goal is to influence U.S. military leaders’ decision-making, demoralize troops and sow divisions in American society.

The report provides new details on extensive PLA advances in weapons systems, doctrine and training. The efforts include practice for missile strikes against U.S. aircraft carriers and warships during operations against Taiwan, the self-ruled island that Beijing has vowed to annex as early as 2027.

“The PLA increasingly views warfare as a confrontation between opposing operational systems, rather than annihilation of opposing mechanized military forces,” the report said. “Following this logic, PLA writings refer to systems destruction warfare as the next way of war, transforming from mechanized warfare to an informatized and intelligentized style.

The PLA calls its information warfare activities “cognitive domain operations.” The report describes “an asymmetric capability to deter U.S. or third-party entry into a future conflict, or as an offensive capability to shape perceptions or polarize a society.”

The operations target the U.S. government and military, media organizations, businesses, academic and cultural institutions, and policy communities.
