Controversial Ebola Research Discussion

We are back with a story that everyone should find absolutely

horrifying about one of the deadliest diseases on the planet.

According to Dr. Fauci's diary, our government was experimenting with

aerosolized Ebola. Yes, you heard that correctly,

Ebola in aerosol form, and was testing it on apes,

which we just learned right here on the show.

They all died, every single one of them, and even, uh, Fauci

admits this never should have happened, and says afterwards he was left to, quote,

"Pick up the doo-doo." So who was authorizing this risky

research? I spoke to Senate Homeland Security

Committee Chairman Rand Paul

and asked him everything he knows about this. Here's our conversation.

Senator, great to see you. Uh, I hate that it's on this topic.

Uh, Ebola of course is a terrifying, horrific virus with

a 50% lethality rate if you're lucky.

Uh, we now know that Dr. Anthony Fauci talked about s- uh,

some kind

of gain of function research on Ebola.

Can you tell us what that is and why they were doing that?

So we began looking at exchanges between him and his

assistant, and often she was saying, "Hey, Dr.

Fauci, I destroyed tons of your emails."

But as we got to looking at

these back and forth, we discovered that some of the emails that weren't

destroyed discussed aerosolizing Ebola.

Why this is important is Ebola spreads more like AIDS, bodily

fluids, very close contact. You might be able to get it

if someone coughs

on you from droplets very close, but it doesn't...

it's not small enough to be suspended in the air where you could get it 30 feet

away. That's why COVID was so infectious, because it was

aerosolized. So anybody that wants to aerosolize Ebola,

I think, has a death wish, maybe a death wish for civilization,

because

it does have a 50% mortality. It is usually contained

by quarantine. It, it's all in Africa, and it seems

to be quarantinable in the sense that you can stop the spread after a

while.

They've, they've got a big epidemic of it going on

now, but if it were

aerosolized, it would spread like COVID.

It would spread throughout the whole world, and I think it would be a bad idea.

But basically, Anthony Fauci didn't show any concern for

the research.

He just thought it ought to be classified 'cause he didn't think the public should,

should hear about this, or the African nations where the

vaccines are being experimented with, the, on people.

Yeah.

But the experiment didn't go so well with the, uh, with the apes.

Uh, all of them died. Those who got it without the vaccine died.

Those who got with the vaccine died.

But the vaccine actually, uh, created a worse, uh, scenario for

their lungs than the ones that weren't vaccinated,

but all of them died, and I

don't think something that dangerous we should be trying to make

more

transmissible. Uh, I think it's a big mistake-

So-

... and I think we need to be reviewing all

this.

Uh, most of it's classified now, and they still continue to hide most of

the

classified stuff from me.

So I just wanna be clear. They, they did indeed in these

experiments aerosolize Ebola. Is that correct?

In these experiments?

Yep.

So they did do this.

Yeah, and it was on the heels of it, uh...

Yes, they did, and it was in 2016, but they also did it at a

time when we weren't supposed to be doing any gain of function.

And really, there's not sufficient oversight.

There's no public debate over is this a good idea or a bad idea.

That's why I've proposed a presidential commission-

Mm

... called the Risky Research Review Act, where the president would appoint

scientists to review these projects and see whether they're safe enough to

continue. I don't think we can trust someone like

Anthony Fauci to be in charge,

do it in secret. Because he also doesn't wanna tell you

whether or

not he was getting, uh, royalties from Big Pharma.

He says he doesn't have to tell anyone, he's not going to tell anyone, and no one

should have to reveal that. And that's when I promised basically

that I will change

the law. That's another thing I'm trying to do,

is to make it so the scientists

will have to reveal their, their-

Yeah

... royalties and conflicts of interest.

Can you tell me more about Dr. Fauci's response to learning

that Ebola had been aerosolized in these experiments?

What was his response to that news?

'Cause mine is horror. I think any normal person-

Sure

... who knows anything about Ebola-

Yeah

... it is shock and horror to learn that this has actually happened.

Um,

yeah, his isn't shock and horror. His is, "Oh, we did this.

Yeah, I'm not sure I like the experiment, but really, the big mistake here is it

should've been classified." And this is what people need to know.

Since 9/11, an enormous amount of money's been b- uh,

spent

on bioweapons. Now, not always to develop bioweapons.

They would argue to defend against bioweapons.

But they call it dual use for a reason.

You have to create the weapon to learn how to defend against it, but there are some

weapons that are so dangerous that an accidental release could occur.

That's still what I think happened in Wuhan.

They were working on a, an a, on a vaccine that would work across all

families of coronavirus,

but because they didn't stimulate the immune system enough, they had to make it

more dangerous. They had to insert what

was called a furin cleavage site so it

would infect humans more. And so it became more contagious in the

lab,

but I think they were pursuing a vaccine.

So it wasn't their intentions that were bad, but they had a lab

that wasn't safe,

maybe not the best, uh, s- laboratory standards for safety.

But that can happen in the United States.

We've had 1,000 major accidents in the last decade-

Yeah

... of leaks from labs in our country.

Well, we've also seen these, these made-up labs that have no oversight,

uh, in

places like Las Vegas and California, for example, Chinese nationals with

things like Ebola and other, uh-

Exactly

... pathogens. Uh, so that's terrifying.

The big issue, at least today, is the information you gave about the fact

that they

are aerosolizing things like Ebola.

I mean, if you get that, your chances of survival are very,

very low, and

that there seems to have to be a way to stop them from Frankensening these

viruses in these very dangerous, civilization-ending, uh,

experiments.
