Continued from page 5A
website (dated Jan 4,2018),
claimed the WIV is capa
ble of experiments with
“highly pathogenic micro
organisms.” The website
continues, “Level-4 is the
highest biosafety level, used
for diagnostic work and
research on easily trans
mitted pathogens which
can cause fatal disease,
including Ebola virus.”
Additionally, the United
States’ National Institute of
Health (NIH), under the
guidance of Dr. Pauci, gave
$$$millions to the WIV
to conduct “gain of func
tion” research on viruses to
include coronaviruses; and
Covid is a coronavirus.
DESPITE THE fact that
the WIV was conducting
research on easily trans
mitted pathogens such as
coronaviruses, for three
long years we lived in the
Twilight Zone. You weren’t
allowed to question the wet
market scenario. The Leftist
Cabal mocked, cancelled,
and silenced anyone who
had the audacity and
common sense to dispute
the “wet market” narrative
and who believed the lab
leak. They screamed at us
saying the lab leak theory
had been debunked and
only fools continued to
believe it. MSNBC, CNN,
NY Times, the rest of the
media, and even the CDC
and World Health Organi
zation demanded we accept
their wet market story.
RADIO talk-show host,
Dan Bongino frequently
uses the term Occam’s
razor (OR) to explain an
event. OR at its basic says,
“the simplest, least compli
cated explanation is usually
the best explanation.” Last
week’s Alex Murdaugh
murder conviction of his
wife and son, in South Car
olina, is a perfect example.
Murdaugh claimed he was
innocent and couldn’t have
committed the murders
because he wasn’t at the
murder scene. Then, a
video recording, made by
his murdered son only
minutes before his death,
was discovered. On the
video, Murdaugh’s voice
was clearly heard, meaning
he was at the murder scene
just moments before the
murders. He concocted
various complicated expla
nations to explain away his
presence on the property
but not hearing any gun
shots. He claimed he was
sleeping in the house, that
someone else was on the
property and did the kill
ings, etc., etc. Then, when
he was confronted with his
voice on the video, he said
he had lied about being
nearby but was telling the
truth that he didn’t kill
anyone and continued to
blame someone else. Using
OR, the least complicated
and simplest explanation
is that nobody else was
discovered on the property
because nobody else was
there. The video placed
Murdaugh at the murder
scene only moments before
the murder. Simplest expla
nation - Murdaugh killed
his wife and son. That’s
exactly how the jury saw
it and convicted him of a
double homicide.
LET’S APPLY Occam’s
razor to the origins of
Covid-19, aka the China
virus. In early 2020, the
world was confronted with
Covid-19. It first appeared
in Wuhan, China. Prom
Wuhan, it spread to the rest
of the world. So, where did
it come from - a wet mar
ket in Wuhan (as China
claimed) or from the only
level-4 bio lab in China that
was conducting research
on the exact type of viruses
that caused Covid? What’s
the simplest explanation

Mich, men caught with stolen truck
By Steve Reece
steve.reece@gmail.com
A stolen 2019 Preight-
liner van was recovered by
Monroe County
deputies on March
3. According to the
incident report, a
BOLO was given
onayellowPenske
truck after it was
flagged by the
cameras at the
southbound weigh
station. Deputy
Teldric Middle-
brooks and Sgt.
Thomas Haskins spotted
the vehicle near the Boling-
broke exit on 1-475 S and
made a stop.
Haskins asked the driver,
Lamont Anthony Williams,
22, of Detroit, Mich., how
he came in possession of the
vehicle, to which he stated
the vehicle was
rented by his boss,
Jalen Winston
Johnson, 28, of
Harper Woods,
Mich., who was
the passenger in
the truck. Wil
liams stated he
just started driv
ing the vehicle
because his boss
was tired.
Haskins instructed
Johnson to exit the van and
Johnson immediately told
him that his girlfriend had
rented the vehicle for him.
He said he owned a
trucking company, and he
was currently transporting a
load to Florida. He said the
vehicle had been rented “a
few weeks ago” He had no
idea when it was supposed
to be returned.
Haskins found a rental
document which showed
the vehicle was rented on
Jan. 4 and was supposed to
be returned on Jan. 7. The
Freightliner had been en
tered as stolen on Feb. 2 by
the Perrysburg, Ohio Police
Department.
Haskins asked Johnson
why the vehicle was not
returned on time, to which
he replied he had “emails”
that showed he filed for an
extension, but he was un
able to pull them up on his
phone. Johnson also said
that Williams had nothing
to do with the situation and
that he alone was responsi
ble for the vehicle.
Johnson was handcuffed
and arrested for theft by
receiving stolen properly.
Williams was also hand
cuffed and arrested due to
driving while his license was
suspended. Both Johnson
and Williams were taken to
the Monroe County Jail.

restraining orders held by his ex-wife and son.
Monroe County deputies were called around
3 p.m. on Wednesday, Feb. 15 after James Shand
Watson, 76, of Macon, went to his ex-wife’s neigh
borhood on Cotswold Drive and was going door
to door ringing doorbells. When deputy Adkins
arrived, it was reported that Watson had now gone
to his ex-father-in-law’s business on Estes Road
wanting to see his son. The ex-father-in-law said
Watson was trying to enter the building as he was
leaving. Both the ex-wife and son have restrain
ing orders against Watson due to stalking. He was
arrested and charged with two counts of violating a
stalking restraining order. He was released on bond.
With dual citizenship in Scotland and the U.S.,
Watson was an associate professor and professor in
the Mercer law school dating back to 1971, with an
emphasis on criminal law. Watson retired at the end
of the 2020-21 academic year.

- an unknown exotic
animal passed the virus to a
human or the virus leaked
from the level-4 bio lab, a
lab working with corona
viruses? Any person with a
3rd grade level of problem
solving would point to
the lab as the most logical
explanation. That’s exactly
what President Trump
said back in April 2020 - a
lab leak is the most likely,
simplest scenario. As of last
week, Trump, the Reporter,
conservatives, people with
common sense, and I have
been 100% vindicated.
What happened?
THE DEPARTMENT
of Energy released a report
that says the lab leak is
the most likely origins of
Covid-19. Get this; the FBI
suddenly arrived at the
same conclusion. Sorry, Big
Brother, you’re three years
late to the party; people
with common sense knew
that from the start.
IT’S CLEAR that censor
ship and speech silencing
was part of the systematic
effort by the media, by Fau
ci, by the CDC, the WHO,
and others to mislead
America and the world.
Fauci is the guiltiest of all
because he knew that the
NIH was funding research
at the WIV on coronavirus
es but actively worked to
silence anyone who dared
challenge the funding. Our
aristo-bureaucrats are so
arrogant, so believe they’re
intellectually and morally
superior to us that well
believe whatever idiotic
story they feed us. They tell
us falsehoods and outright
lies and don’t bother with
any explanation.
YOU WOULD think that
organizations like the intel
agencies (CIA, NSA, FBI,
etc.), medical agencies like
the CDC and the FDA, Big
Media such as 60-Minutes,
research universities like
Johns Hopkins, etc. at least
one of them would have
questioned the wet market
theory, especially since the
WIV is right there. That
none of them questioned
the wet market narrative,
that all of them went along
with the wet market lie
proves we can’t believe
anything they say - ever
again. The few who did
question the narrative, such
as Trump, were quickly
silenced, marginalized and
ridiculed. Big Media and
the federal government lied
to us for three years. Never
again will I believe them.
