LOL - like the Fight Club character who turns out to be a figment of the imagination?

Why doesn't he use his real name so he can be considered a serious journalist???
If I started a new website and wanted to be taken seriously by the world, I certainly wont sign off with terapined, I would use my real name
He doxes a Chinese scientist yet refuses to reveal his name. Pretty hypocritical.

Peng Zhou’s research was published on the Internet before Zero Hedge mentioned him.

Twitter used that January article as an excuse to suspend them.

He was hired to conduct experiments to determine how bats can be infected with viruses deadly to humans, and not get sick.

The article that really got them suspended was the one they published two days later, concerning HIV and Ebola proteins found in the coronavirus, which Indian researchers claimed were “Unlikely to be fortuitous in nature”.

Scientists at Nankai University in China confirmed the coronavirus has an HIV-like mutation as opposed to ‘insertion’, which helps it bind to human cells at a terrifyingly effective rate.

In addition to the $400 million we borrow every year to give to the WHO, we borrowed another $3.4 million over six years to give China for their virus research.

The least they should do is allow our scientists to visit their lab in Wuhan.

As Biden struggles, Hillary waits for the call


"Hillary Clinton continues to hover in the wings, ready to step forward should Joe Biden fail. Don’t look now, but Joe is failing. Not only has his campaign been rocked by sexual assault allegations from one-time staffer Tara Reade, but the public is beginning to give up on the former vice president. A new Emerson College poll showed 57 percent of likely voters think President Trump will win reelection in November."

Every day that goes by it's more
and more likely She will be the
nominee. She's chomping at
the bit and laughs gleefully
every time Biden's senility pops
up.

It is "champing" at the bit, not "chomping."

I've heard it both ways, but mostly "chomping". https://grammarist.com/usage/champing-chomping-at-the-bit/

"The idiom is usually written chomping at the bit, and some people consider this spelling wrong. But chomp can also mean to bite or chew noisily (though chomped things are often eaten, while champed things are not), so chomp at the bit means roughly the same as champ at the bit.

In fact, chomp, which began as a variant of champ, is alive in English while the biting-related sense of champ is dead outside this idiom, so it’s no wonder that chomping at the bit is about 20 times as common as champing at the bit on the web. Champing at the bit can sound funny to people who aren’t familiar with the idiom or the obsolete sense of champ, while most English speakers can infer the meaning of chomping at the bit.

Still, if you’re writing for school or for readers who are versed in English, champing at the bit is probably the safer choice."

You know Hillary's loving this. She used her "Get out of the primaries free" card while everyone else was beating each other up. Now she might very well win the nomination. This is what she wanted all along!!

This whole thing with Biden might
be a ruse to slip Hillary in there.
Get a senile Biden as the presumptive
nominee and Hillary has a clear path
when he drops out.

The more I think about it, the more I realize that she's been playing 4D chess while the rest of DEMocRATS have been playing checkers. This is what she was gunning for all along and why she was laying low for the past year. She knew darn well that Biden has dementia, so she was probably pushing him big time behind the scenes so that he could take all the slings & arrows and knowing that he's unelectable.

That's also how she disposed of Bernie. He dropped out of the race for Biden, but he would have NEVER done so against Hillary. Same with Pete Buttcrack et al. They wouldn't have dropped out either. So she disposed of all her primary opponents without lifting a finger!

Now she comes out the woodwork to "endorse" Joe knowing full well that he's on his way out. She'll pretend that she doesn't want to run, but after he gets the boot she'll "reluctantly" throw her hat in the ring. Then all of DEMocRATS and their media lapdogs will praise her to no end for putting aside her "reluctance" and running for the good of the country.

She's still gonna get shellacked by Trump but I do admit that her scheming plan is working to perfection!!
