STEVE CLEMONS: PANDEMIC SOOTHSAYER OR DEEP STATE PSYOP AGENT?

BIDEN’S PET JOURNO DISHED ANTI-TRUMP AND PANDEMIC FEAR PROPAGANDA — 2017 THROUGH 2020

Steve Clemons, what information did you have beginning in 2017 that a pandemic was imminent and that Donald Trump — and only Donald Trump — would be to blame?

Because based on what you did during the Wuhan Virus pandemic, the years preceding it, and as well your having a close personal association with Joe and Hunter Biden, you need to answer that question.

June 2020, as the pandemic shutdowns restructured life as we know it, Steve Clemons, who had been “predicting” that a pandemic would afflict Donald Trump’s presidency since 2017, was giddy that he was right while Trump was wrong and headed for his comeuppance in the November election.

Angry and vindictive in his anti-Trump reporting, he was in charge of the influential Coronavirus Report for The Hill, which was gaining prestige and prominence with every podcast — mostly because his “reporting” was simply berating the Trump administration for its perceived pandemic failures.

Clemons was especially overwrought during his podcast on June 15th, 2020, when he interviewed Ron Klain, Obama’s purported pandemic expert for his handling of the Ebola crisis, Klain at the time was a key player in Joe Biden’s presidential campaign and would, after the rigged 2020 presidential election, attain his dream job as Joe Biden’s White House chief of staff. In fact, this interview occurred the day after Biden announced an eight-point plan on how to “reopen” the country safely, so it was actually Clemons offering Klain a thinly disguised Biden promo on his podcast.

Here’s Clemons:

“In fighting COVID-19 the federal government knew that it would need ventilators and respirators and other PPE materials and equipment distributed to hospitals nationwide. It had early warning. And yet what we saw unfold is that states and hospitals had to compete with one another for this equipment and run the risk that federal authorities would actually poach what they had secured and hijack it for their own use.”

And then after Clemons spouted more damning examples about agency miscommunication, confusing testing procedures, and mismanaging test results, he urged Klain to pile on too:  “One of the things that’s come out of these many interviews that I’ve done in the last couple months is that lots people saw this coming … are you angry that we didn’t do more?”

“Of course I am,” replied Klain: “I mean, I think every American should be angry.”

Meanwhile, the people Clemons was referring to who saw it coming were himself, Klain and other ObamaBiden operatives like CCP-affiliated John Holdren, CCP-collaborator Anthony Fauci, CIA executive Tara O’Toole of In-Q-Tel, Metabiota founder Nathan Wolfe, EcoHealth Alliance founder Peter Daszak, DNA/RNA vaccine salesman Bill Gates, Obama operatives Susan Rice and Lisa Monaco, and even Barack Obama himself. But curiously not Clemons’ good friend Joe Biden. Obama’s former vice president never publicly made that call.

But now with hindsight, all the overhyped fear and outrage over the Wuhan Virus pandemic can be nullified with one simple word: Sweden. That brave country had the best plan all along — trust natural immunity and treat COVID-19 like a bad flu, which it was. No drummed up fear, no drummed up outrage, no drummed up submission.

And no falling for the ObamaBiden psyop, which was aimed more at American voters than anyone else. Because in order to steal the election from Trump, the ObamaBiden Democrats needed a global tragedy they could publicly pin on him, and that was the real purpose of the Wuhan Virus pandemic. Democrat operatives knew that apparently from 2017 on.

So where does that leave Clemons? What was his role? Who was this former employee of the intelligence community-affiliated RAND Corporation really working for?

In the rest of his intro, after bashing Trump with the hysterical Democratic talking points of early spring 2020, Clemons said: “And I’d love to kind of get in your head for a minute about what we’re not doing today that you put in place when we were dealing with Ebola.”

This is a “journalist” turning his platform over to a political operative in the midst of a highly charged presidential campaign.

Again, who was he working for?

Klain responded:

“Fighting a pandemic is a giant logistical challenge, and we’ve seen the failure of kind of the Trump administration’s management of that over the last four months. First ignoring and denying the threat, refusing to centralize management of it in the White House, kind of leaving it at HHS, and then, you know, having a series of chaotic structures in the White House, you know all of these things have led to the kinds of problems you talked about in your introduction.”

Also in his intro, Clemons mentioned Klain’s podcast Epidemic as something he listens to every week. It was, of course, full on Democrat propaganda. Klain would interview Stacy Abrams later in the spring. And then on September 11th, 2020, Klain led his good friend, Anthony (Tony to him) Fauci, through a discussion of how President Trump was politicizing the pandemic recovery.

Klain co-hosted Epidemic with Dr. Celine Pounder, a virologist whom he met when he was the Ebola Czar in 2014. They broadcasted their first hyperbolic episode on February 27th, 2020 — just in time to amplify the call for the Fauci recommended shutdowns.

This propaganda posing as journalism is exactly what President Trump meant when — the day after Klain and Pounder kicked off their podcast —he said: “The Democrats are politicizing the pandemic.”

Here’s a screenshot of their schedule for their initial episodes. Note Klain’s timely interview of Obama’s Centers for Disease Control (CDC) director Tom Frieden, also before the shutdowns.

I’ll have more on Tom Frieden’s role in this psyop, but for now, let’s get back to that June 15th, 2020, Klain and Clemons interview.

“It is the most laggard, disjointed response you could imagine,” Klain offered Clemons about the Trump administration’s COVID-19 response. He then recommended more mask wearing and more contract tracing to “bend this curve downward more quickly.

And then of course, there was Klain’s served-up answer to yet another Clemons’ softball question:

“This isn’t globalism for goodness’s sake or for humanitarian’s sake — though humanitarianism is very important — it’s globalism because it’s in our interest to have access to the best medicines, the best vaccines, and the best labs wherever they’re found.”

Like that fantastic lab at the Wuhan Institute of Virology? Is that the lab you’re referring to, Ron?

That was the Klain-Clemons interview DURING the pandemic. Even more revealing was the panel discussion with Ron Klain and Tom Frieden that Clemons moderated just two years EARLIER.

Clemons, then with The Atlantic magazine, hosted Klain, Frieden, CDC principal deputy director Ann Schuchat, and Seth Barkley of the vaccine alliance GAVI at the 2018 Aspen Ideas Festival Deep Dive: Who is Prepared for the Next Pandemic?

Yes, that Aspen Festival — the summer playground of Democrat operatives and billionaire Democrat funders that’s second only to the World Economic Forum in Davos as a must-do event for anti-Trump globalists.

At the 37th minute Klain begins his talk with the following: “I want to thank Tom for those kind words and for revealing that I extorted money out of the Congress of the United States. Appreciate that disclosure.”

Clemons can be heard chortling in the background.

Klain was referring to Frieden’s introduction. Frieden, after taking a crack a Trump (without naming him) for something he had tweeted during the Ebola crisis, had just explained that after Obama asked for a $5 billion supplemental from Congress, Klain succeeded in getting:

“a billion dollars for global health security as part of the Ebola supplemental appropriation ... there were a lot of people who wanted to throw global health security under the bus and say, no, we’re not going to do that. It’s not directly Ebola. And Ron said to certain elected congressmen, senators, all right, if the next epidemic comes from this country that you’ve cut out, we’ll just say it — that you cut it out, and that’s where it came from. And Ron was able to get really consensus — a bipartisan consensus that we should do this.”

In other words, Klain recognized as early as 2014 the political leverage the threat of a pandemic gave him. And that’s what he and the ObamaBiden operatives set up against Trump — even before he was inaugurated.

And it was done under Joe Biden’s direction.

With Steve Clemons tagging along.

Frieden then declared a dire pandemic warning, which seemed directed more at protecting the funding of the ObamaBiden biowarfare infrastructure from Trump’s promised cuts. In other word, follow the money. Here’s Frieden:

“And so at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention programs were started in dozens of countries around the world to make the world safer — to help countries be stronger there so we could be safer here …

“And those programs have made significant progress, but they’re hard. They take time. And the current administration has not taken steps to ensure that those programs will continue, so we face a significant problem. If the funding isn’t found to continue those programs, the US will have to pull back from the frontlines of the war against microbes. It will have to leave the field open — not for terrorism, in this case, but for terrible organisms.

“And doing that means that we will all be at greater risk of disease emerging, spreading, and risking ourselves, our travelers in a way that could have been prevented… an approximate example of what the Centers for Disease Control spends and can spend on health protection — protecting Americans here by stopping diseases there.

“It’s been in the neighborhood since the Ebola supplemental came through of $250 million to $300 million a year — until now …next year will be the last year that supplemental dollars are available… so unless these funds are found, there will be a significant problem in terms of our ability to protect the US. Basically, we have to protect CDC’s budget, so CDC can protect us…”

That billion dollars from 2014 was the beginning of USAID funding PREDICT 2, the ObamaBiden biowarfare infrastructure program that backed infectious disease research at the Wuhan Institute of Virology. The concept of global health security was their newfound cash cow, which Trump had promised to eliminate completely. And that’s why Clemons had this anti-Trump “fear the pandemic” confab with Klain and Frieden in June 2018 in front of the Aspen Institute globalists.

And make no mistake without PREDICT 2, there would have been no research done at the Wuhan Institute of Virology to generate the virus strain that became COVID-19. Defunding it was the best path to sanity, and it was Trump who was leading on that path.

But the ObamaBiden biowarfare operatives had powerful friends. Klain invoked none other than the Godfather of MRNA vaccines himself:

“Bill Gates has said that the single most likely thing that could take 30 million excess lives in a given year is a pandemic of some sort. And he said he thinks there’s a 50/50 chance that will happen in his lifetime. So the risk is there.”

By the way, Ron, what’s an excess life?

There was nothing public minded in what Ron Klain, on behalf of Joe Biden, was doing. He was using pandemic fear on a global scale to destroy Donald Trump’s presidency — no matter the cost. And we and our families and our freedoms were the cost.

Klain did that with the help of Joe Biden’s pet journalist, Steve Clemons.

Here’s Steve Clemons again to Frieden:

“It seems to me like this is a very fragile time in global affairs … that the United States seems to be walking away from its enthusiasm for global stuff on all fronts. And there’s a trust problem out there that seems to be building. I just met with leaders across Europe, and they will privately say they no longer trust the United States for their dark days — whatever those dark days may be … What do you feel about where the world is tipping and how the current administration is approaching some of these issues?”

And here’s Frieden’s reply:

“I think that the next big thing in public health is global health security, and the baton has been passed from the Obama administration to the Trump administration. And they haven’t yet dropped it.”

In his answer, however, he shows who’s guiding his thinking by dropping one of  Joe Biden’s favorite phrases: “But show me your budget, and I’ll show you your values.”

The only person in this “discussion” to stand up for Trump was Ann Schuchat. She defended Trump’s public health policy in managing a severe Ebola outbreak in war-torn Democratic Republic of Congo that was then underway. But it was when she pointed out the Trump’s Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (BARDA) was also effective that Clemons and Klain had to shut her down.

Clemons turned to Klain: “I sense that Ron’s hair is on fire.”

Klain: “A little bit.”

More Clemons chortling

Then Klain unloads on Trump — almost exactly as he would two years later. That’s not analyzing a present crisis, that’s narrative building for a psyop. This is around the 54-minute mark. Here’s Klain:

“I have a big career as a partisan. So I’m going to just lay that out there. It’s a fact. But what I will say is I’ve tried very hard in this area to take a nonpartisan approach to the issue of pandemic prevention … that said, there is real reason to be scared of the idea of us facing this threat with Donald Trump in the White House. And there are three specific reasons why I make that provocative statement.

“The first is the President is anti-science. He trades in attacking experts. He trades in conspiracy theories. All those things would lead to the loss of many lives in the event of an epidemic in the United States where we would need the public not to trade in conspiracy theories, not to believe that the news was fake, but to respect scientific expertise.

Secondly, he has an incredibly isolationist mindset. And that leads to the U.S. pulling back from its leadership and its involvement in these global crises. And that is also going to be a serious threat to our security.

And finally, he has policies and views that are xenophobic, if not racist. And those lead to blaming immigrants and  foreigners for problems when we need public health interventions.”

I’m going to stop here for now. This has been a much larger rabbit hole that I expected. I’ll need another post to do it right. Here’s a hint: Who was Clemons next best pandemic soothsayer from 2017 through 2020? Rhymes with Ouchie.
