This brilliant idea from 2020 may be one of the simplest and best proofs that COVID-19 came from a laboratory. Note that the idea could not get published until much later – after the “vaccines” were a done deal. This delay of publication is much like what happened to the very early discovery that simple OTC antihistamines protected highly vulnerable people from death by COVID, which was “sat on” by the journals until it missed the chance to save millions of lives.
This is not common knowledge. Professor Nikolai Petrovski, vaccine inventor in South Australia, just a few weeks into the Pandemic, new confidently that the virus was probably man made.

This is not common knowledge. Professor Nikolai Petrovski, vaccine inventor in South Australia, just a few weeks into the Pandemic, new confidently that the virus was probably man made. To the amazement of Dr Drew in this podcast from 10 x months ago, who thought it was new research, Nikolai Petrovski discusses how in “The first few week of 2020, when the viral sequence was first released” he was only “modelling the virus to build a vaccine”. The other clip is from an AMPS seminar held just over a year ago, which works in well with the DR Drew clip. “If it’s come from an animal source, then there should be an animal out there who’s ACE2 binds better to the virus than Human ACE2, [but] rather than finding some exotic animal at the top of the list, we found Humans”[and it was] so well human adapted. “It took a long time to get published, because the narrative was, that [it] was not an acceptable question to be asking.”

Another case of not seeing where “bad things” may lead.

I had written the rough draft of this post before I saw this. As usual Jeff Childers gets it!
Sept 6th — Speaker Johnson lets slip that President Trump may have been an FBI informant helping nail Epstein, threatening Democrats’ midterm political strategy… If Trump really was a formal FBI informant, there’s an official paper trail…Which raises an awful possibility for Democrats: what if he can prove it?
I understand the rage of people who want to see Epstein’s clients brought to justice. (I was raped at work.) However we need to step back and really LOOK at the situation. I agree with POTUS Trump. It is another Russia,Russia, Russia.
…When the “note” first appeared after a DOJ “leak,” Trump posted, “The supposed letter they printed by President Trump to Epstein was a FAKE.” He has hinted that Biden’s DOJ put a lot of “garbage” in the Epstein file. President Trump also sued the Wall Street Journal silly over the story, which would be a strange bit of brinksmanship if he knew the note was legit….
…Oddly enough, one of the few individuals willing to publicly defend the Duke lacrosse players was Stephen Miller. Yes, that Stephen Miller, the founder of America First Legal who will serve as deputy chief of staff for policy in Trump’s second term. He wrote conservative columns for the Duke student newspaper at the time and was invited on national news shows to give his perspective on the case. During an interview with noted crime commentator Nancy Grace after the first two arrests were made, Miller said, “I think I speak for many students when I say we’re very, very concerned that two innocent people, possibly, just had their lives ruined.” Grace gasped in horror at the assertion. Miller was invited back on several programs after the rape charges were dropped to take a well-deserved victory lap; he accused lacrosse team haters of pursuing a “political agenda” over the truth.
The rape charges were dropped after a series of unfortunate events for the bloodthirsty district attorney, Mike Nifong. One indicted player had evidence to corroborate an alibi that he wasn’t at the party…
This sort of smear job is standard practice for the D-Rats. First they tried Stormy Daniels and then E. Jean Carroll. Carroll did not make the same mistake Crystal Mangum did. When Carroll accused POTUS Trump, she never gave specific times and dates that could be refuted and picked Trump hating NYC to bring her case.
To put it bluntly the Epstein case is OLD and STALE making solid cases from the information quite difficult without corroborating evidence. I do not count other witnesses as evidence for reasons that will become clear below.
Unfortunately evidence held by the FBI, especially the NYC FBI, I would consider suspect given their track record of covering up for the Deep State and especially for the Clintons.
NYPD sources said these new emails include evidence linking Clinton herself and associates to:
• Money laundering
• Child exploitation
• Sex crimes with minors (children)…
NYPD detectives and a [sic] NYPD Chief, the department’s highest rank under Commissioner, said openly that if the FBI and Justice Department fail to garner timely indictments against Clinton and co- conspirators, NYPD will go public with the damaging emails now in the hands of FBI Director James Comey and many FBI field offices.
“What’s in the emails is staggering and as a father, it turned my stomach,” the NYPD Chief said. “There is not going to be any Houdini-like escape from what we found. We have copies of everything. We will ship them to Wikileaks or I will personally hold my own press conference if it comes to that.”…. [And so they died. -GC]
Article also includes 46 names from the Clinton Body count.
The CIA videotaped the interrogation of 9/11 suspects, falselytold the 9/11 Commission that there were no videotapes or other records of the interrogations… The tape of interviews of air traffic controllers on-duty on 9/11 was intentionally destroyed by crushing the cassette by hand, cutting the tape into little pieces, and then dropping the pieces in different trash cans around the building as shown by this NY Times article (summary version is free; full version is pay-per-view) and by this article from the Chicago Sun-Times….
The former head of fire science and engineering for the agency responsible for finding out why the Twin Towers and World Trade Center 7 collapsed on 9/11 (the U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology) – who is one of the world’s leading fire science researchers and safety engineers, with a Ph.D. in mechanical engineering –wrote that evidence necessary to determine the cause of the collapse of the World Trade Centers was being destroyed….
Las Vegas Massacre
OT covered this topic extensively. I think it was Wolfie that mentioned victims that were organizing to bring out the facts about other shooters ended up dead. Also IIRC the site was quickly bulldozed to prevent analyzing the bullet paths. Those paths would be clear evidence of multiple shooters. Later we learned the Maui Police Chief, John Pelletier, was the incident commander during the Las Vegas massacre.
The DA insider said Aaron Rouse who heads the FBI in Las Vegas reports directly to FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabewho is running point on the Las Vegas shooting probe. Rouse, who for years worked under McCabe in the Bureau’s Counterintelligence Division in D.C., was appointed to the Las Vegas post by ex-FBI director James Comey in 2016.
According to the Las Vegas source, Rouse’s FBI has discounted most of the intelligence and evidence found by investigators outside the bureau, including LVMPD as well as solid evidence pinpointed by investigators working with the county DA’s office.
Some of this evidence deals with forensic proof that a second shooter may have opened fire on the concert goers, the law enforcement source said.
Paddock, the DA insider said, was firing rounds from approximately 400 yards away from the concert from the 32nd floor on Mandalay Bay. The law enforcement source said investigators turned over proof to the FBI that a second shooter was firing from inside a perimeter of approximately 215 yards... Truepundit.com reported: “It’s a movie script that was written after the shooting to rewrite what really happened,” one FBI agent said. “The investigation is an entirely different story that we are not allowed to talk about. If we do and get caught, we get fired and probably charged (criminally)…
So the FBI, especially the NYC FBI, has a history of LYING and DESTROYING EVIDENCE in order to protect the Clintons and other Elites. This is the SAME FBI that was in charge of the Epstein Files for over four years.
Aubergine mentioned information captured by NSA. Given the solid control the Deep State had for years over the US government, I would not bank on the critical files being captured and stored. Remember the Comey and Corney slight of hand? I think that is the tip of a vast iceberg when it comes to hiding sensitive government records from the Public.

A quick look at the destruction of some of the Epstein material.
The structure, referred to informally as a “temple,” was not built even remotely like the music pavilion plans submitted to the U.S. Virgin Islands Department of Planning and Resources, NBC reported Thursday. Flanked by gold-painted statues, the mysterious building has inspired conspiracy theories.
Notably, the door to the building seems to lock from the outside.
“It’s styled like what you might see on a castle, with what appears to be a reinforcing lock bar across the face,” contractor James Booth told Business Insider. “What makes it peculiar is that if you wanted to keep people out, the bar would be placed inside the building, [but the] locking bar appears to be placed on the outside … as if it were intended to lock people in.”
This is not the only time Epstein has defied the U.S. Virgin Islands Department of Planning and Resources. The department issued, and workers ignored, a stop-work order on the construction of an amphitheater and “underwater office and pool” on Big St. James, according tothe New York Post...
Strange Things Are Happening on Epstein Island: Drone Footage
Recent drone footage of Little Saint James reveals strange activity and telling facts about the Jeffrey Epstein investigation since his death. As expected, everything points towards a massive cover-up. Here are the most revealing images captured by drones in the past weeks.
Considering the fact that Litte Saint James was the site of heinous crimes involving powerful people, one would expect the island to be treated like a crime scene that is completely closed off to non-investigators. That is not what is happening.
After a crime scene has been discovered, it is important that measures are taken to secure and protect the scene from contamination. In order to maintain the integrity of the scene, law enforcement must take action to block off the surrounding area as well as keep track of who comes in and goes out. By taking these precautions, officers can ensure that evidence that is collected can be used in court. Evidence that has become contaminated, tampered with, or mistreated can pollute the scene and cause a case to be thrown out of court. – Wikipedia, Crime Scene
Two weeks prior to the FBI raids on Epstein Island, a drone filmed a team of workers doing heavy construction work on the island using tractors, bulldozers and tons of new material.
This footage was filmed on July 30th, 10 days before Epstein’s death and 12 days before the FBI raids. We can see construction workers, heavy machinery and bags of material, possibly concrete
In July, the ambulance was parked on the roof of a building.
A few weeks later, the ambulance was moved to a different spot.
After Epstein’s death and after the FBI raids, the island was still bustling with activity….
We have newly unsealed documents – including the depositions of Ghislaine Maxwell and one of her victims – revealing new details on the extent of the abuse and victimization that took place by Jeffrey Epstein. Those filings come from Giuffre v. Maxwell, a civil case filed against Maxwell in 2015 in the New York Southern District.
Some of the broader allegations have already been made public. Sarah Ransome, who accused Epstein and Maxwell of abuse that took place during her early 20s, settled a civil lawsuit against them in 2018. Ransome has publicly described some of the abuse. And there have been reports on what transpired at Little St. James, often referred to as Epstein Island…
Let’s get to the new details, starting with the testimony of Ransome, available here. She actually lived one of Epstein’s apartments in 2006 with a few other girls. During that time, she worked for what she described as an “agency” which arranged paid dinners with wealthy clients: “I was paid to spend dinner with a gentleman.” Whatever happened after dinner with the client was done on her “own accord” and “after that time period had finished.”….
She said her car had been hit by a school bus travelling at over 60mph and the accident had left her with kidney failure.
The photograph showed discoloration to Giuffre’s face and chest which has been described as severe bruising.
In the post after the crash, she expressed that she was ready to die.
‘I’ve gone into kidney renal failure, they’ve given me four days to live, transferring me to a specialist hospital in urology,’ she said.
‘I’m ready to go, just not until I see my babies one last time.’….
Daily Mail Australia subsequently spoke to the bus driver and multiple eye witnesses to the crash who confirmed it was a ‘minor bump.’
It was also revealed that Giuffre had been listed to face court ten days before the crash over the alleged breach of the family violence restraining order….
Investor and entrepreneur Stephen Deckoff bought Jeffrey Epstein’s ‘Pedophile Island’ as part of a $60m deal and plans to build a luxury resort.
In the aftermath of Epstein’s death, it was listed for sale for $125 million in 2021. In May 2023, it was sold to billionaire Stephen Deckoff who vowed to turn it into a luxury resort by 2025. Deckoff is reported to have paid around $60 million for the property as well as for Great St. James. Epstein’s estate has said that any money generated from the sale of his properties would be used to settle lawsuits…. [Has video and photos.]
So there goes any chance of actually recovering any more evidence from that island.
STEPHEN DECKOFF
My curiosity bump got the better of me. Forbes: Stephen Deckoff
StephenDeckoff founded Black Diamond Capital Management, which manages $10 billion in assets.
[“We are a leader in mobile connectivity, satellite TV, content, and network management, delivering multi-orbit, multi-channel hybrid connectivity solutions to an expanding worldwide subscriber base of commercial and leisure vessels along with land mobility and commercial applications.” – LINK]
Stephen H. Deckoff was elected to the KVH Board of Directors in June 2023.
From February 2023 to June 2023, Mr. Deckoff was an observer on the KVH Board. Mr. Deckoff has been the managing principal of Black Diamond Capital Management, L.L.C. (“Black Diamond”), a privately held alternative asset management firm, since its founding in 1995. In that capacity, he is responsible for all portfolio management and business operations. Prior to 1995, Mr. Deckoff was a senior vice president of Kidder, Peabody & Co. Inc. (“Kidder”) and head of its Structured Finance Group. Prior to joining Kidder, Mr. Deckoff was a managing director in the Structured Finance Group at Bear Stearns & Co., Inc. (“Bear Stearns”). Before joining Bear Stearns, Mr. Deckoff worked in the Structured Finance Department of Chemical Securities, Inc. and the Fixed Income Research Department at Drexel Burnham Lambert. Mr. Deckoff has held or currently holds board seats for a number of Black Diamond portfolio companies, including Consumer Portfolio Services, Inc., ION Media, Werner Ladder, White Birch, and Bayou Steel, among others, and he has held a board seat at Pacific National Bank, N.A., a privately chartered bank headquartered in Miami, since 2014.
Wolfie mentioned finding bones of victims. Maxwell had a submarine and a helicopter as well as the licenses to use them, so I imagine any bodies ended up as shark food. Any blood or other evidence has long since been destroyed.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
GLORIA ALLRED
Duchess brought this X-22 report that has a lot of key information about the Epstein mess.
IMHO the information about Gloria Allred is the most important and the reason I would not trust the accusations of a survivor even if backed up by a second woman.
Gloria Allred is representing Epstein victims.
Gloria Allred is Lisa Bloom’s mother.
Lisa Bloom got caught offering $750K for women to accuse Trump of sexual assault.
Lisa Bloom paid off a woman’s mortgage if she would accuse Trump of sexual assault.
BREAKING: DOJ Deputy Chief Admits Government Will “Redact Every Republican” While “Leav[ing] All the Liberal, Democratic People” on the Epstein Client List; Says Ghislaine Maxwell Was Moved to a Lower-Security Prison As “A Benefit… to Keep Her Mouth Shut”
So let’s hope the D-Rats do not have anything nastier up their sleeves and some CLEAN USABLE evidence from the Epstein mess can be salvaged. If nothing else, the DOJ gets a list of names to use as a starting point. And NO, unless the person is indicted I do not want to see specific names especially with Gloria Allred involved.
