The decision to cease Gain-of-Function (GoF) research in the United States was not abrupt, nor was it purely political—it was the result of a long and troubling accumulation of scientific, ethical, and procedural concerns. The tipping point came in the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic, with mounting evidence suggesting the need for caution, accountability, and re-evaluation of high-risk biological experimentation. Two crucial sources—an unilaterally attended Congressional hearing in September 2022 and a long-classified MK-ULTRA document released in December 2024—reveal the context and catalysts that led to the policy shift. What is Gain-of-Function Research? Gain-of-Function research involves manipulating pathogens to enhance their properties, such as transmissibility, virulence, or host range. Though potentially useful for understanding disease progression and preparing vaccines, such work also carries grave biosafety risks, particularly when…

Introduction The origins of the COVID-19 pandemic have been shrouded in controversy, with competing narratives fueling global distrust. Recent revelations, coupled with long-standing accusations from China and Russia, have intensified scrutiny on the United States’ potential role in the virus’s creation. China has openly blamed the U.S., pointing to ignored appeals by Russia to the United Nations for investigations into alleged U.S. biological malfeasance. These claims, bolstered by declassified documents and whistleblower testimonies, suggest a complex web of covert operations involving U.S. agencies like the CIA and USAID, potentially in collusion with global entities like the World Economic Forum (WEF). This article explores these allegations, supported by emerging evidence, and speculates on the motives behind such actions, including the possibility of a regime-change operation targeting the Trump administration…

The narrative around U.S. tariffs on China often casts America as the instigator, with some—particularly on the right—labeling China’s retaliatory measures as near acts of war. This view misses the core issue: our reliance on China is a self-inflicted wound, a toxic co-dependence that has eroded America’s sovereignty. Beyond trade, China’s aggressive acquisition of U.S. farmland, its growing influence through BRICS, and its systemic theft of intellectual property (IP) and personal information threaten our national security and independence. Rather than leaning on global orders to counter these threats, the U.S. must resolve its dependence through self-reliance, prioritizing principles over associations to avoid entanglement in a flawed global system. China’s strategy has never been about mutual benefit. Drawing from Sun Tzu’s The Art of War, it seeks to weaken…
