Bill Gates: “We’ll Have Another Pandemic. It Will be a Different Pathogen Next Time”

Speaking at Germany’s annual Munich Security Conference on Friday, globalist billionaire Bill Gates confidently warned the world a new pandemic is coming.
CNBC’s Hadley Gamble asked Gates, “How confident are you that we, as a global community, will deal with the next global pandemic better?”
“Well, there were a lot of people after the Ebola epidemic who were talking about what needed to be done, and in this pandemic, the countries that had exposure to SARS-CoV-1 were amongst the outliers,” Gates answered.
Next, Gates praised Australia’s authoritarian crackdown on its civilians as an example for other nations to follow.
“So, Australia is a true outlier,” he said. “They orchestrated diagnostics, they executed quarantine policies and they have a death rate in a different league than the other rich countries.”
“We’ll have another pandemic. It will be a different pathogen next time,” Gates <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2022/02/18/bill-gates-covid-risks-have-reduced-but-another-pandemic-will-come.html" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">told the CNBC anchor</a>.
Regarding Australia’s drastic and inhumane Covid measures, Gates noted, “Everybody had the capability to do that. They have less PCR machines than other rich countries, they have more travelers coming from China than other countries.”
The Microsoft co-founder cited the millions of deaths, the economic toll, lack of schooling, depression, overdose deaths and other negative effects of lockdowns as results of Covid, not government policies.
<div class="VImmwXjY"><a href="https://www.infowarsstore.com/winter-sun-vitamin-d?ims=pabks&utm_campaign=wintersunhero&utm_source=Infowars+Hero&utm_medium=banner&utm_content=wintersunhero" target="_blank"><img src="https://api.directus.libertycdn.com/uploads/_/originals/WINTERSUN-hero-385.jpg" /></a></div>
Gates claimed, “The cost of being ready for the next pandemic is not super large,” adding, “It’s not like climate change where you know 10 trillion, 20 trillion, these are big numbers.”
According to Gates, “Global surveillance capability would cost a billion a year. The RND that we need to do to get magic vaccines and diagnostics and therapeutics, you know that’s less than 100 billion over the next decade. So, if we’re rational then yeah, we’ll catch it early and it won’t go global like it did this time.”
During another segment of the Munich Security Conference, Gates argued that wealthier nations shouldn’t have been pushing the experimental Covid jabs on children who are in less danger from the virus before they got the shots into the elderly populations of poorer countries.
“It’s hard to get the vaccines allocated according to that risk ordering, which would have been ideal,” he said. “Because of the Second Source deal that we helped fund with Serum and AstraZeneca, India actually had a lot of vaccines very early. And, you know, the rich countries had vaccines early.”
Gates’ solution to the dilemma of prioritizing vaccinations is to have the capability to produce 2 doses of a vaccine for every person on the planet.
Asked whether or not it’s possible to prevent the next pandemic, Gates again focused on Australia, saying if every nation did what they did then we wouldn’t be calling it a pandemic.
Basically, unless every nation on the planet becomes a totalitarian hellhole like Australia, we will surely have another global pandemic on our hands despite the fact that Covid was the first one since the 1918 Spanish Flu.
In a bizarre comment, Gates said it was “sad” that the Omicron variant was able to act as a natural vaccine by getting out to the world’s population faster than the experimental vaccines.
“Sadly the virus itself particularly the variant called Omicron is a type of vaccine, creates both B cell and T cell immunity and it’s done better job of getting out to the world population than we have with vaccines…” he explained.

When a panel member asked Gates about face masks, he sarcastically mocked those who don’t want to wear one, saying, “It’s got to be tough, you know, you have to wear pants… These societies are so cruel. Why do you have to wear pants, I’m trying to figure it out.”

Jordan Peterson & Douglas Murray Berated For Not Pulling Masks Up Quickly Enough After Sips

Levi’s former Brand President Jennifer Sey claims she was offered $1 million dollars by the company to stay silent about why she was fired – for her criticism of COVID restrictions and particularly the closure of schools.
Sey made the assertion in an article posted to the <a href="https://bariweiss.substack.com/p/yesterday-i-was-levis-brand-president?r=rael8">Common Sense channel</a> on Substack run by Bari Weiss.
The gymnast had worked with Levi’s for two decades having previously competed at the 1986 Goodwill Games in Russia.
However, she was fired after being targeted by a mob campaign because she dared to suggest that making children wear masks and forcing them to miss school might be harmful.
“Anonymous trolls on Twitter, some with nearly half a million followers, said people should boycott Levi’s until I’d been fired,” Sey wrote. “So did some of my old gymnastics fans. They called the company ethics hotline and sent emails.”
As we previously <a href="https://summit.news/2022/01/27/speech-therapist-364-surge-in-baby-and-toddler-referrals-thanks-to-mask-wearing/">highlighted</a>, Sey is completely correct in her criticism given that speech therapists are now reporting a 364% increase in patient referrals of babies and toddlers over developmental disorders caused by mask wearing.
After CEO Charles Bergh told Sey that if she stopped speaking out, she’d eventually become the company’s next CEO, Sey briefly muted her dissent.
However, thanks to the mob pressure, Sey was told her position was “untenable” and was then offered $1 million dollars to not reveal why she was fired.
“The money would be very nice. But I just can’t do it. Sorry, Levi’s,” wrote Sey.
“I never set out to be a contrarian. I don’t like to fight. I love Levi’s and its place in the American heritage as a purveyor of sturdy pants for hardworking, daring people who moved West and dreamed of gold buried in the dirt.”
“But the corporation doesn’t believe in that now.”
“It’s trapped trying to please the mob—and silencing any dissent within the organization. In this it is like so many other American companies: held hostage by intolerant ideologues who do not believe in genuine inclusion or diversity.”
Revealing that she was also labeled “racist” for speaking out against COVID restrictions, Sey wrote that she decided to keep her voice rather than take the money.
“Early on in the pandemic, I publicly questioned whether schools had to be shut down.”
“This didn’t seem at all controversial to me. I felt—and still do—that the draconian policies would cause the most harm to those least at risk, and the burden would fall heaviest on disadvantaged kids in public schools, who need the safety and routine of school the most.”
“In the summer of 2020, I finally got the call.”
“‘You know when you speak, you speak on behalf of the company,’ our head of corporate communications told me, urging me to pipe down.”
Despite pleading that she was merely speaking in a personal capacity as “a public school mom of four kids,” Sey said the final straw was when she appeared on Fox News with Laura Ingraham and criticized further school closures.
Levi Strauss & Co. subsequently released a false statement claiming Sey had “resigned from the company.”
In reality, she was fired after intense pressure and relentless phone calls from people at every level of the company, right up to the CEO.
But remember folks, cancel culture doesn’t exist!

Why the US doesn’t have universal child care (anymore)

Every high-income country in the world has a paid maternity leave policy — except the US. Most have a paternity leave policy, too. And, usually, some form of universal or subsidized child care for all families. The United States has … none of these policies.
It did have federally funded child care once. And Congress even passed a universal child care policy in the ’70s. But today, the US is stuck on a policy path of welfare and tax credits. So why hasn’t the US been able to establish these common family policies?

University Backtracks After Encouraging Staff To Use ‘Neopronouns’, ‘Emojiself,’ And ‘Catgender’ Terms

The Biden administration’s latest Department of Energy hire is a “queer activist” who brags about his “kink” of leading other gay men who are pretending to be dogs around on leashes before having sex with them.
We truly live in hell.
Sam Brinton was recently hired by the DoE as the Spent Fuel and Waste Disposition Deputy.
A <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20170708031332/http://www.metroweekly.com/2016/01/puppy-love-mid-atlantic-leather-2016/">Metro Weekly</a> article contains some illuminating details about Brinton’s lifestyle as a handler in the “pup community.” And yes, it’s every bit as degenerate as you might think.
<img alt="null" src="https://cdn.summit.news/2022/02/metro.jpg" />
<blockquote readability="46">
IN THE PUP COMMUNITY, handlers function the same way dog owners do, keeping a watchful eye on their charge and reining in the pups if needed. It’s the handlers who train the pups and teach them discipline, doling out rewards or punishments based on good or bad behavior.
“Think of any bio-dog,” [Pup] Gryphn says. “You can train them. It’s this ‘go do this’ reward system, just like a bio-dog. So let’s say you’re playing fetch, you throw the ball, the pup picks it up, brings it back, and drops it at your feet. You’re going to reward him, whether it’s petting him or anything like that.
“Or, let’s go to an extreme,” he continues. “Let’s say you’re doing pup play around the house and the pup decides to pee on the floor. Obviously the pup is going to be punished for that. Typically, when we’re being humans, it’s ‘Why would you correct me in front of so-and-so? That’s wrong, don’t do that. Don’t speak for the next five minutes,’ something like that.”
Just like the pups they are tasked with watching over, some handlers need to enter their own headspace when engaging in puppy play.
“My headspace is equivalent to the mom who sees her kid in danger, or the dad who wants to teach his son how to play football,” says Nubi’s 27-year-old handler, Sam [Brinton]. “It’s the concept of the teacher and nurturer…. My job is to make sure that while he’s in headspace, I’m keeping him safe.”
</blockquote>
Brinton also explains how he has difficulty making his ‘dog’ stop pretending to be a dog before he has anal sex with it.
“I actually have trouble when we transition from pup play to having sex. Like, ‘No, I can’t have you whimper like that when we’re having sex,’ because I don’t want to mix that world. It’s interesting, because he doesn’t have to come out of pup mode to have me f*ck him. I personally have to bring him out of pup perception for me. But then I’m still treating him as a submissive to me.”
The LGBT activist also explains how he believes he is having “sex with animals” and that there’s nothing wrong with that.
“One of the hardest things about being a handler is that I’ve honestly had people ask, ‘Wait, you have sex with animals?’” They believe it’s abusive, that it’s taking advantage of someone who may not be acting up to a level of human responsibility…. The other misperception is that I have some really messed up background, like, did I have some horrible childhood trauma that made me like to have sex with animals.”
During a video presentation for far-left outlet Now This, Brinton lectured the viewer about the necessity of using proper pronouns so as to cater to people with mental disorders.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="550" data-dnt="true" readability="11.341246290801">
This is the Biden’s new Dept of Energy hire: gender fluid with a background in having sex with animals, “kink,” and drag. Even in Weimar, this kind of perverted degeneracy was kept underground.

“Even in Weimar, this kind of perverted degeneracy was kept underground,” commented Jon Miller. “One can only think what the eventual counterreaction will be.”
“He has worked his way up through the progressive establishment,” <a href="https://www.theamericanconservative.com/dreher/sam-brinton-kinky-joe-biden-puttin-on-the-dog/">writes Rod Dreher</a>. “This is what it means to have Democratic Party governance now: a freak show. None of those people recognize it as a freak show. Appointing to the federal government’s nuclear management agency a weirdo who puts his wing-wang up the rear end of men who pretend to be dogs, and brags about it to the media, is just another day of celebrating Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion™.”
“The day before yesterday, this dude parading his kink in public would have been considered a disqualifying character flaw. Today, with the baizuocracy, his fetish is probably what catapulted him over other qualified applicants for the job. Because this is not only who the Democrats are, it’s what the American establishment has become. They hate normality.”

Brinton is also a campaigner against conversation therapy, giving a speech about the issue while wearing red lipstick at an event in 2018.

Meanwhile, China thinks that America’s obsession with wokeism and identity politics will literally lead to the internal collapse of the United States.
The Department of Defense was warned about this nearly a decade ago, yet the military-industrial complex has decided to weaponize identity politics as a form of neo-imperialism.
Moscow and Beijing are very much aware of this agenda, which is why they go to great lengths to prevent what Vladimir Putin described as a “virus” infecting their society.

A Trump judge’s new decision would undo more than 50 years of voting rights law

<div><img class="ff-og-image-inserted" src="https://cdn.vox-cdn.com/thumbor/3YHYTd22D1adW1aeXRgTb_AlSrg=/0x368:5141x3060/fit-in/1200x630/cdn.vox-cdn.com/uploads/chorus_asset/file/23255084/1233355675.jpg" /></div>
A Trump-appointed judge handed down a decision on Thursday that, if embraced by the Supreme Court, would render crucial safeguards against racial discrimination in elections virtually unenforceable — particularly during Republican administrations.
To be clear, this is a decision by a federal trial judge, which means that it must survive contact with an appeals court and the Supreme Court before its narrow approach to voting rights becomes the law of the land. Nevertheless, the Supreme Court’s 6-3 Republican majority is typically <a href="https://www.vox.com/22575435/voting-rights-supreme-court-john-roberts-shelby-county-constitution-brnovich-elena-kagan">hostile to voting rights suits</a>, so there is a very real risk that they will agree with this trial judge.
The case is <a href="https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.ared.131201/gov.uscourts.ared.131201.100.0.pdf">Arkansas State Conference NAACP v. Arkansas Board of Apportionment</a>, and the plaintiffs claim that Arkansas’s statehouse maps are racially gerrymandered in violation of the Voting Rights Act (VRA), the <a href="https://www.vox.com/2015/3/6/8163229/voting-rights-act-1965">landmark civil rights law</a> that probably did more than any other statute to end Jim Crow. Among other things, the plaintiffs note that the maps contain only 11 (out of 100) majority-Black districts, even though Black voters make up more than 16 percent of the state’s population.
But Lee Rudofsky, the Trump judge assigned this case, barely engages with the substance of this racial gerrymandering claim. Instead, Rudofsky concludes that such a claim “may be brought only by the Attorney General of the United States” and not by private plaintiffs.
Private suits enforcing the VRA have been a fixture of American civil rights law since the 1960s. As the Supreme Court explained in <a href="https://caselaw.findlaw.com/us-supreme-court/393/544.html">Allen v. State Board of Elections</a> (1969), “the achievement of the Act’s laudable goal could be severely hampered ... if each citizen were required to depend solely on litigation instituted at the discretion of the Attorney General.” Among other things, “the Attorney General has a limited staff and often might be unable to uncover quickly” new state policies that target voters of color.
And a law that only the attorney general can enforce will be utterly useless if the attorney general does not choose to enforce it. During the entire Trump administration, for example, the Justice Department’s voting section <a href="https://www.justice.gov/crt/voting-section-litigation">brought only one lawsuit</a> alleging discrimination under the Voting Rights Act — and that was a <a href="https://www.justice.gov/crt/case-document/file/1286481/download">fairly minor suit</a> alleging that the method of electing school board members in a South Dakota school district “dilutes the voting strength of American Indian citizens.”
Nevertheless, Rudofsky now seeks to neutralize one of the most important protections against racism in American elections.
The most straightforward reason why Rudofsky is wrong is that the Supreme Court determined that he is wrong in <a href="https://scholar.google.com/scholar_case?case=3481160507352623076&hl=en&as_sdt=6&as_vis=1&oi=scholarr">Morse v. Republican Party of Virginia</a> (1996). In that case, a majority of the Court concluded that Section 2 of the VRA, the provision at issue in Arkansas State Conference, is enforceable through private lawsuits.
Additionally, while the Voting Rights Act does not contain any language which explicitly states that “private plaintiffs may sue under this law,” it does contain some provisions which make no sense unless private suits are permitted. One provision, for example, states that federal courts hearing VRA lawsuits shall exercise their jurisdiction “<a href="https://uscode.house.gov/view.xhtml?req=(title:52%20section:10308%20edition:prelim)">without regard to whether a person asserting rights</a>” under the VRA has exhausted other potential legal remedies.
It makes no sense for the VRA to contain a provision referring to “a person asserting rights” in a Voting Rights Act lawsuit unless the law permits such a person to assert those rights in the first place.
Rudofsky’s primary argument is that Allen and Morse do not apply because the Supreme Court has since abandoned their approach to interpreting federal laws, and that the VRA must be retroactively reinterpreted in line with this new approach.
The Voting Rights Act became law in 1965. One year earlier, in <a href="https://scholar.google.com/scholar_case?case=11274363713776494210&hl=en&as_sdt=6,47&as_vis=1">J.I. Case v. Borak</a> (1964), the Supreme Court established that federal statutes should generally be read broadly to permit enforcement by private lawsuits. “It is the duty of the courts to be alert to provide such remedies as are necessary to make effective the congressional purpose,” Borak explained.
Thus, the Congress that wrote the Voting Rights Act operated under the assumption that it did not need to explicitly write a private right to sue into the statute because the Supreme Court had recently signaled that private suits are permitted when a federal law would be ineffective without them. The Court validated this reading of the VRA four years later in Allen.
Then, nearly four decades after Congress wrote the VRA — and 19 years after Congress <a href="https://www.vox.com/21211880/supreme-court-chief-justice-john-roberts-voting-rights-act-election-2020">enacted important amendments to the law in 1982</a> — the Court decided <a href="https://scholar.google.com/scholar_case?case=6907411608837736130&hl=en&as_sdt=6&as_vis=1&oi=scholarr">Alexander v. Sandoval</a> (2001), which laid out a much stingier approach to private lawsuits. Sandoval does contain some language that undermines the case for permitting private suits under the Voting Rights Act.
Sandoval, for example, states that “statutes that focus on the person regulated rather than the individuals protected create ‘no implication of an intent to confer rights on a particular class of persons’” — so if a federal law uses language like “no state shall do X” instead of “all persons have a right to X,” courts typically should not permit private lawsuits under that statute.
The relevant provision of the Voting Rights Act uses both kinds of language — it starts with the phrase “no voting qualification or prerequisite to voting or standard, practice, or procedure shall be imposed or applied by any State,” but then goes on to forbid any voting practice “which results in a denial or abridgement of the right of any citizen of the United States to vote.”
But there are good reasons not to read Sandoval too restrictively with respect to the VRA. One is that, while Sandoval does lay out some interpretive guidelines that courts can use to determine whether a particular law permits private lawsuits, Sandoval also states that “the judicial task is to interpret the statute Congress has passed to determine whether it displays an intent to create not just a private right but also a private remedy,” and that “statutory intent on this latter point is determinative.”
And, in this case, there is overwhelming evidence that Congress intended the Voting Rights Act to contain a private right that is enforced by private lawsuits. Again, Congress wrote the law against the backdrop of decisions like Borak, which emphasized that private parties should generally be allowed to sue to enforce their legal rights. Federal courts have understood the law to permit private suits at least as far back as 1969, when the Court decided Allen. And Congress has <a href="https://www.vox.com/21211880/supreme-court-chief-justice-john-roberts-voting-rights-act-election-2020">amended the VRA multiple times</a>, but it’s never questioned the longstanding assumption that the law permits private lawsuits.
Justice John Paul Stevens, moreover, anticipated Rudofsky’s objection to an enforceable Voting Rights Act in an opinion he wrote in the Morse case. Recognizing that the law governing when private parties are allowed to sue under federal statutes was in flux in 1996, when Morse was decided, Stevens acknowledged that a decision proving that only the attorney general may enforce the law “might have been correct if the Voting Rights Act had been enacted recently.” But such a decision would fail “to give effect to our cases holding that our evaluation of congressional action ‘must take into account its contemporary legal context.’”
Stevens, in other words, relied on a fairly basic rule of fundamental fairness. Courts should not interpret a statute written in 1965 using interpretive rules that the Court came up with years later. If Congress had known about Sandoval when it wrote the Voting Rights Act, it would have known to use more explicit language. But Congress did not have a time machine.
In any event, Rudofsky is not alone in his desire to burn down a landmark civil rights statute because lawmakers in 1965 failed to predict the future. Concurring in Brnovich v. DNC (2021), Justice Neil Gorsuch claimed that “our cases have assumed — without deciding — that the Voting Rights Act of 1965 furnishes an implied cause of action under §2,” and suggested that he would eliminate this right of private parties to sue under the law.
Gorsuch’s opinion was joined by only one other justice, Justice Clarence Thomas. So it is not the law. But given this Supreme Court’s <a href="https://www.vox.com/22575435/voting-rights-supreme-court-john-roberts-shelby-county-constitution-brnovich-elena-kagan">record of hostility toward the Voting Rights Act</a>, there is no guarantee that Gorsuch won’t find five votes to affirm Rudofsky’s decision.

One in Five Gen Z Adults Now Say They Are LGBTQ

One in five Gen Z adults now identify as LGBTQ, while the number of total Americans doing the same has doubled in a decade, according to a new Gallup poll.
However, the rise is almost entirely accounted for by far greater numbers of people identifying as bisexual or transgender, not gay or lesbian.
“Gallup estimates from these results that within the entire U.S. adult population, 4.0 percent of Americans identify as bisexual, 1.5 percent as gay, 1 percent as lesbian and 0.7 percent as transgender,” reports the <a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10525275/Record-number-adults-say-identify-LGBTQ.html">Daily Mail</a>.
“The Gallup poll found nearly 21 percent of Gen Z adults identify as LGBTQ, which is nearly double the number of millennials who do, which is 10.5 percent. Nearly one in six Gen Z LGBTQ adults identify as bisexual.”
Americans identifying as LGBTQ represent 7.1 per cent of the population, compared to 5.6 per cent a year ago. In 2012, 3.5 per cent of Americans identified as LGBTQ.
The numbers are fascinating given that a significantly greater percentage of Americans obviously aren’t being ‘born gay’.
Indeed, the increase is largely explained by far more people identifying not as gay or lesbian, who still comprise a total of just 2.5 per cent, but by those identifying as bisexual or trans, a total of 4.7 per cent.
This exemplifies how the huge rise in people identifying as LGBTQ (or more specifically bisexual and trans) is overwhelmingly caused by social engineering.
When Glenn Greenwald (who is gay) made this same point last year, he was smeared as “transphobic.”
Greenwald pointed out on Twitter that “almost all of the increase comes from those identifying as bi or trans, not gay or lesbian.”

Of Americans now claiming "bi" identity, the vast majority of them in long-term relationships are in opposite-sex relationships (33%) rather than same-sex ones (3.7%).
So 10 times more people who identify as "bi" live in hetero-appearing relationships than gay/lesbian ones: <a href="https://t.co/iOIM0tv2ON">pic.twitter.com/iOIM0tv2ON</a>

He went on to highlight how, “Of Americans now claiming “bi” identity, the vast majority of them in long-term relationships are in opposite-sex relationships (33%) rather than same-sex ones (3.7%). So 10 times more people who identify as “bi” live in hetero-appearing relationships than gay/lesbian ones.”
The writer said one explanation for this was that “masculine girls are now encouraged to identify as trans, causing a decrease in the lesbian population.”
He then cited an article which explored “whether the disappearance of lesbian culture is due to the encouragement which masculine girls receive — from the society, therapists, health care workers, etc. — to identify as trans, not as lesbian women.”

The results of the poll underscore how mainstream culture’s increasing obsession with identity politics is manipulating young people into identifying as LGBTQ because they think it’s cool, edgy or makes them unique.
However, given that such brainwashing is being imposed via top down social engineering, it’s not edgy or unique at all.
Nor is it very healthy given the greater risk of mental illness and depression associated with such lifestyles.
