House GOPs Weaponization of Government Against America Subcommittee
A Series On Misinformation, Disinformation and Subterfuge
The newest QAnon-ish House sub-committee is beginning to take shape and QElon Musk is all for it.
I wouldn’t bother to seat a single Democrat on such a committee clearly lacking a serious legitimate legislative purpose.
I’ll answer the questions the committee will simply make stuff up and push conspiracies on COVID’s origins since they never bothered to shut off Russian propaganda that filtered its way through all the way to Fox, NewsMax and OANN.
COVID originated outside of China with the earliest community spread being found elsewhere, March of 2019, well before the October WuHan Military Games.
The virus was likely circulating globally before China identified the “emergence” roughly two weeks after the World Military Games. The whole purpose of ignoring the research on COVID’s origins by the GOP has been squarely to weaponize the issue scapegoating and targeting Asians while lessening scrutiny on Russian malfeasance.
There was no lab leak.
That conspiracy was pure Russian propaganda pushed out heavily on OANN and other disinformation outlets.
There also are no bio-labs either.
Of course Marjorie Taylor Greene, the smartest Republican in the House when it comes to things on Science, will be on the select sub-committee investigating COVID.
Five seats.
Just five. That is all the difference it took to give the GOP the ability to further erode truth, institutions, and to spread copious amounts of disinformation. It’s also the margin that will ensure that debt itself is weaponized.
But not just yet. Too soon.
They’ll want to crash things like the economy, the US government, and debt, when we are gearing up for the 2024 election season around a year from now.
