President Donald Trump White House Turns Covid.gov Into a Lab Leak Theory Fan Page | Trump blames North Americans for the pandemic, never holding China responsible for letting the virus escape airports and impacting the whole world << Hybrid information war lost hearts and minds

https://gizmodo.com/trump-turns-covid-gov-into-a-conspiracy-theory-page-2000591397

The White House has changed covid.gov into a website for promoting the so-called lab leak theory for the origins of covid-19. Donald Trump, who was president during the first year of the covid pandemic in 2020, has long sought to claim the virus originated from a laboratory in Wuhan, China, in an effort to suggest it was a weapon intentionally unleashed onto the world. But the best science we have at the moment still suggests covid had natural origins.

...

The covid.gov URL redirects to the White House website and now features a list of “facts” that aren’t widely agreed upon by scientists who have studied the origins of covid-19.

Trump’s allies have long claimed that covid-19 was designed in a lab and was either intentionally or accidentally leaked. The CIA even changed its assessment of covid’s origins shortly after he took power again, suddenly claiming it may have been from a lab leak, though admitting “low confidence” in that assessment. But the most recent studies on the topic, looking at genomic data, still suggest natural origins from an animal market in Wuhan, China. And a study earlier this year found that most virologists and other scientists with relevant expertise still don’t think the lab leak theory is the best explanation for how covid-19 came into the world.

The new website presents highly contested claims as facts and prominently features several people like Anthony Fauci and Joe Biden, who were supposedly instrumental in covering up some big scandal. Disturbingly, the website also names several other people whom the White House suggests conspired to cover up the real origins of covid, including Dr. David Morens, a senior advisor to Fauci. It’s disturbing because President Trump has promised a campaign of retribution against his enemies and has already started to target individuals like cybersecurity expert Chris Krebs for telling the truth about the 2020 election. Trump has also targeted law firms that he’s extorting to get free services, and institutions like Harvard University to resegregate American life.

Donald Trump White house is attacking AMERICANS. Anthony Fauci and Joe Biden and never blames Russia for the manipulaiton of minds on Twitter media platform (of which RFK Jr and Donald Trump are just two of the minds manipulated on autism and virus topics)

Factual Evidence of Russian Hybrid Warfare reported August 24, 2018 - more than year before pandemic

https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-45294192

Social media bots and Russian trolls have been spreading disinformation about vaccines on Twitter to create social discord and distribute malware, US researchers say.

Troll accounts that had attempted to influence the US election had also been tweeting about vaccines, a study says.

Many posted both pro- and anti-vaccination messages to create "false equivalency", the study found.

It examined thousands of tweets sent between 2014 and 2017.

Vaccination was being used by trolls and sophisticated bots as a "wedge issue", said Mark Dredze from Johns Hopkins University.

"By playing both sides, they erode public trust in vaccination, exposing us all to the risk of infectious diseases," he said.

...

"A significant portion of the online discourse about vaccines may be generated by malicious actors with a range of hidden agendas," said David Broniatowski from George Washington University.

The researchers reviewed more than 250 tweets about vaccination from accounts linked to the St Petersburg-based Internet Research Agency (IRA). In February the agency was named in a US indictment over alleged election meddling.

The IRA tweets used polarising language and linked vaccination to controversial statements about race, class and government legitimacy, the researchers said.

More in the story, and it was covered all across the world in August 2018, including Fox News.

Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelensky has accused US special envoy Steve Witkoff of "disseminating Russian narratives" after he appeared to suggest that a peace deal between Russia and Ukraine hinged on the status of five Ukrainian regions.

After holding a five-hour meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin on Friday, Witkoff told Fox News that a deal to end the war was "about these so-called five territories".

"I think that Mr Witkoff has taken the strategy of the Russian side," Zelensky told a Kyiv press conference on Thursday.

"I think it's really dangerous, because consciously or unconsciously he is disseminating Russian narratives".

Americans are now split on whether Russia is an ‘enemy,’ poll finds

As President Donald Trump presses for a deal to end Russia’s war in Ukraine, attitudes among Americans, especially Republicans, are shifting.

April 17, 2025 at 12:20 p.m. EDT

By Rachel Pannett and Mikhail Klimentov

The share of Americans who consider Russia an “enemy” has fallen to its lowest point since it began its full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022, according to a poll published Thursday by the Pew Research center. The shift owes largely to evolving views among Republicans amid stark changes in U.S. policy and diplomacy toward Russia and Ukraine under President Donald Trump.

The survey found the share of Americans who said Russia was an “enemy” had fallen to 50 percent, from 61 percent in April 2024 and 70 percent in March 2022, just after the invasion began.

The softening in attitudes toward Russia was far sharper among Republican voters, with 40 percent saying Russia was an enemy, down from 58 percent last year and 69 percent in March 2022. Thirty-four percent of Americans overall now describe Russia as a competitor of the United States, while just 9 percent said it was a partner.

"As I mentioned before, exposure to true information does not matter anymore. A person who is demoralized is unable to assess true information. The facts tell him nothing, even if I shower him with information, with authentic proof, with documents and pictures ... he will refuse to believe it ... That's the tragedy of the situation of demoralization." - Yuri Bezmenov, KGB, 1983

"There is nothing more tragic than to see an individual whose heart is filled with hate. He comes to the point that he becomes a pathological case. For the person who hates, you can stand up and see a person and that person can be beautiful, and you will call them ugly. For the person who hates, the beautiful becomes ugly and the ugly becomes beautiful. For the person who hates, the good becomes bad and the bad becomes good. For the person who hates, the true becomes false and the false becomes true. That's what hate does. You can't see right. The symbol of objectivity is lost." - Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. visiting Detroit Michigan USA. November 1957.

Putin praises Elon Musk, compares him to father of Soviet space program

By Reuters

April 16, 2025

MOSCOW, April 16 (Reuters) - Russian President Vladimir Putin on Thursday praised Elon Musk, comparing him to Sergei Korolev, the chief engineer behind the Soviet Union's space success in the 1950s and 1960s, state news agency TASS reported.

TASS cited Putin, who was speaking on Russia's space policy at a meeting with students, as saying: "You know, there's a person who lives in the States, you could say that he's absolutely crazy about Mars."

It quoted him as drawing a comparison between Musk and Sergei Korolev, a Soviet engineer who was instrumental in the Soviet Union's success in sending Yuri Gagarin on the world's first crewed spaceflight in 1961.

NATO / USA lost the Hybrid War that was launched in March 2013 against the World Wide Web.

1. Kremlin brags that only 1% of the manipulation Hybrid War content has been discovered and removed. NATO has entirely been unable to defend, 99% flies under the defense radar of Five Eyes (FVEY).

2. Russian military was able to completely get past USA FBI, CIA, NSA, and whatever else the Pentagon has. Competely unable to defend the population against Russian Hybrid Warfare. "For years, AIVD had access to the infamous Russian hacker group Cozy Bear. That's what de Volkskrant and Nieuwsuur have uncovered in their investigation." "the Dutch intelligence agency AIVD penetrated the computer network of a university adjacent to Red Square back in 2014, only to later realize they had tapped into APT29, aka Cozy Bear, one of the Russian government-affiliated organizations that penetrated the DNC and targeted other US government departments". "It was Dutch intelligence operatives that hacked into some of Russia's own institutions -- including their closed-circuit television cameras."

3. Putin and Surkov's "Operation Matthew 4:19" global manipulation of everyday people included turning social media consumers into Russian assets of the Hybrid Warfare who deliberately spread measles and COVID-19 virus during the pandemic. Johns Hopkins University and George Washington University validated evidence going back to year 2014.

4. Absolutely no defense has been found against this Hybrid Warfare since it was unleashed in March 2013. "At the NATO summit in Wales last week, General Philip Breedlove, the military alliance’s top commander, made a bold declaration. Russia, he said, is waging “the most amazing information warfare blitzkrieg we have ever seen in the history of information warfare.” It was something of an underestimation. The new Russia doesn’t just deal in the petty disinformation, forgeries, lies, leaks, and cyber-sabotage usually associated with information warfare. It reinvents reality, creating mass hallucinations"

https://kyivindependent.com/us-blocks-g7-statement-denouncing-russias-sumy-strike-bloomberg-reports/

The U.S. has told the other G7 members it would not support a joint statement condemning Russia's deadly attack on Sumy last week so as not to disrupt peace efforts, Bloomberg reported on April 15, citing undisclosed sources.

Russia launched the missile attack against the northeastern city on Palm Sunday on April 13, killing 35 people and injuring 119. It marked one of the worst attacks against Sumy throughout the full-scale war.

Canada, currently chairing the G7 group, reportedly told other members that the statement could not be adopted without U.S. support. According to Bloomberg, the statement was to denounce Russia's attack as evidence that Moscow is determined to continue its war.

While European leaders have denounced the attack as a war crime, Trump adopted a softer tone, saying that while the strike was "terrible," it likely occurred by "mistake," without elaborating further.

5,000 alternate reality screen games were uploaded to the World Wide Web to manipulate the "Executive Function" mental behaviors of Americans.

Australian academics refuse to attend US conferences for fear of being detained <<< "Hearts and Minds" of Americans to self-destruct USA on world stage, more evidence of Mass Mind corruption being sensed by outsiders

Australian academics refuse to attend US conferences for fear of being detained

‘When academics fear travelling or partnering with US institutions, the impacts ripple through the entire global knowledge ecosystem,’ one says

When Gemma Lucy Smart received an invitation to attend an academic conference in the US, she was excited. But that was before Donald Trump was returned to office.

Now Smart, who has a disability and is queer, has decided it’s too risky to travel to Seattle for the social sciences conference in September.

The disabilities officer at the Council of Australian Postgraduate Associations and a PhD candidate at the University of Sydney will instead attend remotely.

Shortly after Trump was inaugurated, the Society for Social Studies of Science made its conference “hybrid” in response to what it said were “unpredictable” developments at the US border.

“They were concerned about people entering,” Smart said.

“I work on the history of psychiatry, so my field has a lot to do with diversity, equity and inclusion. They [the conference organisers] very explicitly said, ‘We don’t believe it is safe for everyone to travel to the US, particularly our trans and diverse colleagues.’

Trump blames Zelensky for Ukraine war after ’60 Minutes’ interview

by Brett Samuels - 04/14/25 11:06 AM ET

President Trump on Monday sought to distance himself from the war between Russia and Ukraine as his promise to end the conflict quickly has proven difficult to accomplish.

“The War between Russia and Ukraine is Biden’s war, not mine. I just got here, and for four years during my term, had no problem in preventing it from happening,” Trump posted on Truth Social. “[Russian] President [Vladimir] Putin, and everyone else, respected your President!”

Trump also blamed President Biden and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky for “allowing this travesty to begin.”

Trump’s Wildly Unconstitutional Plot to Banish U.S. Citizens to Gulags

His plan to send American citizens to foreign prisons is the latest in a long series of affronts to the American constitutional order.

Matt Ford ... April 14, 2025

Among the most disturbing ideas floated by the Trump administration in recent weeks is the possibility that it will send U.S. citizens to be imprisoned by the Salvadoran government. Nayib Bukele, El Salvador’s Trump-friendly president, reportedly made the offer in recent weeks. Trump raised the possibility with reporters in the Oval Office last week, though he conceded that he “[doesn’t] know what the law says on that.”

Russia is trolling the entire world via media systems. The largest organized trolling project in modern times, "Operation Matthew 4:19". Moscow is financing legions of pro-Russia Internet commenters. Daisy Sindelar, 2014

"media doesn't want to cover things that attract controversy for them. They're fine creating controversy for other things but not for them. And then the other thing is media creates enemies. It has to tell a story. And one of the things that is very common in storytelling is who do we all not like collectively? And so in the age of mass media, when Chomsky is writing about this, he's describing a media that is attempting to reach a mass audience. And I think that this is one of the really big shifts that I try to get at, which is the incentive structure is incentives to create sort of a hegemonic identity is what he calls it, a national identity and national audience. The sort of small voices are left out"

Palm Sunday. Humanity is almost all online or near online (friend or family). We have an opportunity to rescue Ukraine and Russia and all the people who need morality lessons. We need to use our social machines to say enough is enough of this bullshit of mindless aggression.

The Kremlin planned this and is rubbing it in our face... BBC, Adam Curtis, 2014: "A ceaseless shape-shifting that is unstoppable because it is undefinable. It is exactly what Surkov is alleged to have done in the Ukraine this year. In typical fashion, as the war began, Surkov published a short story about something he called non-linear war. A war where you never know what the enemy are really up to, or even who they are. The underlying aim, Surkov says, is not to win the war, but to use the conflict to create a constant state of destabilized perception, in order to manage and control."

Repeating, over a decade ago, 2014, Russia bragged: "The underlying aim, Surkov says, is not to win the war" - BBC

What good are symbolic days like Palm Sunday when the population of everyday people in the world can't come together and start teaching these leaders we don't want this bullshit of greedy self-centered wars that are intended to be used to take over the world. Just look at how far Putin and Surkov's plan has progress, now North America is starting war of USA taking over Canada and Greenland because the Surkov plan works so well.

Enough of this bullshit. "The underlying aim, Surkov says, is not to win the war, but to use the conflict to create a constant state of destabilized perception." - I call this "Operation Matthew 4:19" - we are all getting played and we aren't even calling out the scheme. Sickening.

U.S. Special Envoy Steve Witkoff suggested that Donald Trump support the "transfer" of Luhansk, Donetsk, Zaporizhzhia, and Kherson regions to Russia. <<< Hybrid War Lost to Kremlin, "Hearts & Minds" lost since March 2013 simulacra war launched

U.S. Special Envoy Steve Witkoff suggested that Trump support the "transfer" of Luhansk, Donetsk, Zaporizhzhia, and Kherson regions to Russia.

U.S. Special Envoy Steve Witkoff, after meeting with Kremlin envoy Kirill Dmitriev, proposed to U.S. President Donald Trump to support the transfer of four regions of Ukraine - Luhansk, Donetsk, Zaporizhzhia and Kherson - to Russia for a faster end to the war. This is reported by Reuters, citing sources, reports UNN.

According to Witkoff, the fastest way to achieve a ceasefire in Ukraine was to support a strategy that would give Russia ownership of the four eastern Ukrainian regions it tried to illegally annex in 2022 - the publication writes.

The publication notes that Witkoff expressed this thesis earlier in an interview with Tucker Carlson.

U.S. President's Special Representative for Russia and Ukraine Keith Kellogg opposed Witkoff, saying that while Ukraine is willing to negotiate some terms related to "disputed land," it will never unilaterally cede full ownership of territories to Russia.

China lashes out at JD Vance for calling Chinese people ‘peasants’

By Nectar Gan, CNN

Hong Kong CNN — China on Tuesday slammed US Vice President JD Vance for referring to the Chinese people as “peasants” in an interview that has drawn widespread ire and ridicule on China’s internet – and comparisons with Vance’s own self-proclaimed “hillbilly” background.

Speaking to Fox News last Thursday, Vance defended President Donald Trump’s market-hammering tariffs and railed against the “globalist economy.”

“What has the globalist economy gotten the United States of America? And the answer is, fundamentally, it’s based on two principles – incurring a huge amount of debt to buy things that other countries make for us,” Vance told news show “Fox & Friends.”

“To make it a little more crystal clear, we borrow money from Chinese peasants to buy the things those Chinese peasants manufacture.”

Asked about Vance’s comments at a regular news briefing Tuesday, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Lin Jian said: “It’s both astonishing and lamentable to hear this vice president make such ignorant and disrespectful remarks.”

Trump Created an Economic Sinkhole. He Doesn’t Care

There is no strategy behind the tariff chaos — it’s all about personal grievances and settling scores.

April 7, 2025

Such ignorance.

More than a decade ago: “In the twenty-first century the techniques of the political technologists have become centralized and systematized, coordinated out of the office of the presidential administration, where Surkov would sit behind a desk on which were phones bearing the names of all the “independent” party leaders, calling and directing them at any moment, day or night. The brilliance of this new type of authoritarianism is that instead of simply oppressing opposition, as had been the case with twentieth-century strains, it climbs inside all ideologies and movements, exploiting and rendering them absurd. One moment Surkov would fund civic forums and human rights NGOs, the next he would quietly support nationalist movements that accuse the NGOs of being tools of the West. With a flourish he sponsored lavish arts festivals for the most provocative modern artists in Moscow, then supported Orthodox fundamentalists, dressed all in black and carrying crosses, who in turn attacked the modern art exhibitions. The Kremlin’s idea is to own all forms of political discourse, to not let any independent movements develop outside of its walls. Its Moscow can feel like an oligarchy in the morning and a democracy in the afternoon, a monarchy for dinner and a totalitarian state by bedtime.” ― Peter Pomerantsev, Nothing Is True and Everything Is Possible: The Surreal Heart of the New Russia, year 2014
