Fox News’s Greg Gutfeld stated that, while he believes COVID-19 likely came from a lab, no one will “hang” for the death and destruction it has brought on Americans because the U.S. may have been “complicit” in its creation.
On Thursday, “The Five” gathered to discuss the damage COVID lockdowns caused to children and the elderly.
“It’s important to remember as this gets pushed out of the news cycle and Americans try to move on, who did this to these kids, why their futures were stolen, why people in nursing homes had to die alone. It’s because of the Chinese Communist Party,” stated panelist Katie Pavlich. “It’s because of the CDC, and the education and mental health crisis is a result of the teachers’ unions who used this opportunity to extort American taxpayers to get tons of funding.”
It’s money, Pavlich continued, “that they’re not spending and not using it to harden the schools to keep kids and teachers safe and they are the ones who did this.”
“The CDC worked with teachers unions to come up with policies to continue to keep kids masked, to continue to keep schools closed,” she said, adding that we knew in May of 2020 that the virus primarily affected elderly people, “but the federal government and Anthony Fauci got a taste of power and continued to do it to kids for two years.”
“So they are completely responsible and they should be reminded that they are the ones who did this to the country,” she stated.
Gutfeld responded by saying the lack of accountability for the death and long-term damage caused by COVID measures “boggles the mind.”
“Just to follow up on the idea of responsibility, it still boggles the mind that we’ve come to the conclusion that, I think, this was a man-made virus, and no one’s going to hang for that,” he said. “I keep going back to that.”
“If this were a war that killed a million Americans, what would we be doing?” he asked. “And I’m saying that as like, the United States might have been complicit in this. This gain of function stuff didn’t just pop up by itself.”
Naturally, so-called “fact-checkers” tripped over themselves to jump on Gutfeld’s claims.
In a post regarding the clip, left-leaning Mediaite concluded its article with a statement from the National Institute of Health and a May 2022 quote from FactCheck.org which said, “It is not known how SARS-CoV-2, the coronavirus that causes COVID-19, originated. But many scientists suspect the virus ‘spilled over’ into humans from an animal. There is no evidence the virus was created in a lab, let alone as part of any U.S.-funded research.”
US scientists say non-peer reviewed research backs nearby wet market as COVID source, not Wuhan lab https://t.co/7pqiTFD8d0 pic.twitter.com/QDmjCwPHUC

While Mediaite didn’t identify the “many scientists,” we can only assume the organization was referring to a February New York Times story about researchers who “released a pair of extensive studies that point to a market in Wuhan, China, as the origin of the coronavirus pandemic.”
But, as BizPac Review noted at the time, the “extensive studies” were never peer-reviewed, and they followed by five days a study that actually was peer-reviewed that showed “some of the genetic material found in COVID-19 perfectly matches the genetic material in a nucleotide sequence patented by Moderna six years ago.”
Though the researchers concluded that such a match could occur randomly, they stressed that “other possibilities must be considered.”
While the former, non-peer-reviewed studies received widespread media attention, the latter was met by the mainstream media with a choir of crickets.

Dem/Commies here are most certainly complicit. Not only that, they stole a presidential to boot. NWO is moving full speed ahead. They have people in enough places to thwart any attempt to stop their diabolical plan. Their big shots all have one foot in the grave. They must move quickly now so they can see their plan reach it’s fruition.
Fauci was complicit. That son of a bitch helped fund the Covid gain of function experiment in the Wuhan lab. He should be in prison.
fauci needs to hang
Nice to see FOX catching up to a story that’s a year old or over. Of course they did have the Chineez virologist from China on Carlson that told the true story about the virus at the expense of her mother’s well being in China. Maybe they didn’t believe her. Sinse then there has been a lot of info that proved the virus did not come directly from bats including info from Fauci’s corhorts messages that said the genitic code found in covid-19 is not found in the wild but is used in lab studies.
Now we have a possibilty of a new virus that was being built in Ukraine. There is a reason the Marxist deep state left is throughing billions of our tax money at Ukraine but won’t spend any to protect our borders. Trying to hide something? Putin has already sent Ukraine lab info to the United Nations. Useless move? The United nations is part of the new world order and the world deep state apparatus.
GG is on the right track, as, creating, then, spreading covid, was/is a joint effort by the nwo bellwether nations, as an experiment in using a disease as the vehicle to impose totalitarianism on the world. Unfortunately for us, unless we make a strong, united effort to derail these tyrants, they will win.
I am scared to believe that people might be getting smarter but in Ontario, Canada a Conservative Government just won a HUGE MAJORITY. In a province that is traditionally liberal and full out commie.
COULD THIS BE A SIGN OF THINGS TO COME?
MAY HAVE BEEN COMPLICIT??!!??
The US is driving that golf-cart!
We built the labs in Ukraine!
We foot the bill.
It came out of the Wuhan lab, Peter Dazack and Ralph Barrick helped create it, the DOD and CIA via USAID (well known CIA cut out since the 1970’s) helped fund it. All part of the “Great Reset” WEF agenda.
Only a “conspiracy theory” to the willfully ignorant. Everything has been well reported.
do not forget that Obama helped in this he must be arrested and then hung!
Greg Gutfeld stated that, while he believes COVID-19 likely came from a lab. Isn’t that nice that he ‘believes’ this idea! I don’t care what he ‘believes’. Show us documented evidence and peer-reviewed science as proof. Gutfeel may ‘believe’ in the tooth fairy, big foot, and the voices in his head… why should anyone else care?
If you don’t care what his thoughts and beliefs are then why did you watch the video or read the article? If you’re so closed minded to consider evidence that is readily available and sourced from many reasonable and reliable sources then go back to bed and stay asleep.
Peer reviewed science? The entire educated world knows by now they were conducting gain of function research in the wuhan lab with funding from U.S. and authorized by rat faced fauci. There was a credible whistleblower from the lab early on that claimed it came from the lab. Anyone with half a brain knows this was a psyop all along and dying with covid is NOT the same as dying from covid. Nowhere near the death toll they have continuously lied about.
Since when did it become commonplace to write peer reviewed scientific papers that source an origin of a pathogen from a lab in a communist country doing secret research?
smh
There were no bats at the Wuhan wet market. The Wuhan Virology Laboratory was doing research on
coronaviruses in bats.
Sure democrat Sure.
