Protecting the Godfather: “As Long as the Machine Runs Smoothly It’s OK”

By Hans Mahncke & Jeff Carlson

A new batch of emails from Anthony Fauci’s top advisor expose what is without doubt the greatest documented government corruption scandal since Richard Nixon. Perhaps it’s even worse. While Nixon covered up his campaign’s involvement in eavesdropping on his opponent, the corruption laid bare in the new emails is as deep as it is wide. And it’s all documented.

David Morens is a top level federal government official. He served as Fauci’s enforcer and gatekeeper; and he is now in a world of trouble after the House Covid Select Committee managed to obtain his work-related emails from Google.

Now you might wonder why the Select Committee knew to go to Google for government emails or how that was even possible. Well, in 2021, Morens foolishly sent an email from his government account in which he told various people involved in the Covid origin cover up, including Proximal Origin hoaxers Kristian Andersen, Robert Garry and Eddie Holmes, that he uses Gmail to circumvent the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA). At the time, we urged the Select Committee to subpoena Morens’ emails from Google and that has now happened. 

As a result, we have a 155-page treasure trove of emails which are difficult to top in terms of the sheer amount of documented corruption by a high level official. The Covid Select Committee has been highlighting the FOIA aspects of the story, specifically that Morens’s emails document premeditated and systematic efforts to bypass FOIA and destroy records. 

In short, these new emails provide perhaps the most devastating instance of documented corruption in the US government ever seen. The media has, once again, decided to ignore this story altogether. That itself should be considered part of the story because it shows that the media is just as corrupt as the federal government. 

Here are some examples of why the new emails are so damning:

• “I learned from our FOIA lady how to make emails disappear after I am FOIA'd but before the search starts so I think we are all safe. Plus, I deleted most of those earlier emails...”

(This is an email from Morens to Gerald Keusch. Keusch was director of international research at the NIH from 1998 to 2003 and responsible for getting Daszak under the NIH umbrella in the first place. Keusch, who has not featured much in the Covid origin saga, co-authored the fraudulent Lancet letter with Daszak in February 2020. That letter was the first public step in the effort by Fauci connected scientists to systematically mislead and lie to the public about Covid’s origin. )

• “After some recent issues, i am going to try to strictly use only my gmail in these discussions"

(Morens to Keusch after President Trump alerted the world to the fact that the Covid virus most likely came out of the Wuhan lab.)

• “Peter, from Tony's numerous recent comments to me, and from what Francis has been vocal about over the past 5 days, they are trying to protect you, which also protects their own reputations.”

(This is from an email from Morens to Peter Daszak, the man through whom Fauci funneled US taxpayer money and advanced Western biotechnology to the WIV for conducting gain-of-function experiments. There is no room for doubt: The objective during Covid of the National Institutes of Health (NIH) – a $60 billion US government behemoth – was not to protect the public but to protect the reputations of Fauci and his boss, Francis Collins, against the fact that their recklessness seeded the pandemic. It is often overlooked or deliberately ignored that Fauci and Collins wrote an op-ed in 2011 in which they specifically claimed that reckless gain-of-function experiments were "A flu risk worth taking." When it turned out that they were not a risk worth taking, Fauci and Collins abused their positions as top US government officials to conceal their involvement in creating a monster.)

• “That email somehow fell into the hands of the Congressman, probably via a FOIA of someone who didn't delete it, as I did (delete all of Peter's emails and others relating to origin) when the shit started hitting the fan. (...) The best way to avoid FOIA hassles is to delete all emails when you learn a subject is getting sensitive…”

(This is from an email from Morens to Peter Hotez. Hotez is a regular on the fake news, where he sprouts his anti-Trump rhetoric. What the media never tells its remaining viewers is that in 2016 Fauci gave Hotez a huge grant from Fauci to develop a vaccine in case of "accidental release from a laboratory or deliberate spreading" of a SARS virus. But when exactly that happened, Fauci and Hotez claimed that it was impossible. Now it turns out that Hotez was part of the conspiracy to cover up the origin of Covid)

• “The less we provide the enemy the better.” 

(Keusch to Morens)

• “BOTH my gmail and phone calls are not safe. Text is NOT, as it can be FOIA'd, as can my govt email.""So you and Peter and others should be able to email me on gmail only.”

(Morens to Keusch)

• “do I get a kickback????”

(In April 2020, President Trump wisely terminated Daszak’s grant for conducting gain-of-function experiments at the WIV. Fauci immediately set out to try and undo what Trump had done and soon gave Daszak twice as much grant funding than Trump had taken away. We now know that Morens played a role in executing Fauci’s plan and even had the gal to ask Daszak whether he would be receiving a kickback.)

• “PS, i forgot to say there is no worry about FOIAs. I can either send this stuff to Tony on his private email or hand it to him at work or at his house. [Fauci] is too smart to let colleagues send him stuff that could cause trouble.”

(This is from a Morens email to Daszak. We now have documentary proof that Fauci used private email for government business and had a system for circumventing public records laws. From the subject line "Political letters, bills, re. CoV research in China, GoF etc..docx," we can infer that the information that could have “caused trouble” for Fauci, if not concealed, related to gain-of-function experiments in China.)

• “Please feel free to share any docs that I've sent to you with Tony. Hopefully you can do that in a way that avoids FOIA, and if not possible, just show him stuff on screen”

(This is a message from Daszak to Morens. Once again, the two men conspired to circumvent public records laws and to keep Fauci's reputation untarnished, a scenario reminiscent of the Godfather movies.)

• “don't start banging the drum so loud that the Orange Blob decided to decapitate this one also....”

(Daszak to Morens and Keusch)

• “I suggested Arthur try to interview Tony directly and connected him to our "secret" back channel.”

(Here, Morens was emailing Keusch. Arthur appears to be Arthur Allen from Kaiser Health News. By their own admission, federal bureaucrats had a secret back channel for conducting federal business that they wanted to conceal from the American public.)

There are many more emails, including some that illustrate Morens’ sexual perversions. But while these examples of corruption are shocking, we should not let the details distract from the bigger picture. While the Covid Select Committee has correctly focused on FOIA abuse, the larger conclusions are more significant.

At its core, this story is about documented corruption at the highest levels of the US government, including Fauci. The swamp is real and it is totally out of control. This story is about an organized effort on the part of top government officials and the people they fund to conceal the origin of Covid. The emails even reveal a scheme to coach a lower-level official, Erik Stemmy, on what to say (or not to say) about Fauci-funded gain-of-function experiments at the Wuhan Institute of Virology. 

We had come across Stemmy several years ago and stated at the time that he was the weakest link in Fauci's scheme. This has now been proven correct. Like the case of Stemmy, many of the emails exhibit a distinct RICO character. As is almost always the case, those who cast stones at Trump are guilty of what they accuse Trump of.

But there is more. The emails also document that the Covid cover-up was not only motivated by concealing Fauci's involvement in creating the pandemic but also by a desire to target Trump. Hatred of Trump was the glue that held the conspiracy together.

There are also significant geopolitical implications that arise from this saga. The corruption documented in these new emails enabled China to evade responsibility for Covid. During the four-year respite, China has asserted itself on the global scene in ways unimaginable just a decade ago. To have been able to do so despite causing the deaths of 20 million people and destruction of upwards of $30 trillion is completely unfathomable. It would not have happened if Morens and his co-conspirators had told the truth. China's ambitions would have been set back by many years, if not decades. Instead, China has now established a new alliance with Russia, reshaping the global political landscape.

Most importantly, the actions of corrupt US government officials like Morens and their partners, as documented in the emails, thwarted efforts to alert the public about the emerging brave new world of virus creation. Humanity was very lucky that the Covid virus was “just” a SARS virus and not a MERS virus or another type virus with far higher lethality. But there is no reason to assume that the next lab-made virus will not have 50% lethality. We know that Chinese scientists continue to play around with such viruses. The reality is that extremely deadly viruses can now be created in a lab with minimal effort. Such lab-made viruses pose a far greater risk to humanity than all other threats or supposed threats, including nuclear weapons and so-called climate change, combined. But because of the actions of corrupt officials, most people do not know this, and it will now take another man-made pandemic for that message to get out. Let's hope it won't be too late.

There is a lot of information to take in but there is a final takeaway which we have not yet addressed. It is perfectly captured by one of Morens’ statements with respect to Fauci: “as long as the machine runs smoothly its ok.”

Fauci surrounded himself with yes-men and Morens understood his role as such. In fact, he explained the process to Keusch: “then HE tells ME what he thinks so that i can confirm it.” The implication of all this could not be any clearer: Fauci was in charge of the entire conspiracy. He is the Godfather.
