This next story will take a little explaining. So, late last week an intrepid independent analyst tweeted a map and theory that he claimed showed that Russian airstrikes targeted a chain of U.S.-involved bio-labs in Ukraine. His tweet, and the helpful map he published appearing to show the bio labs’ locations and the air strikes, was canceled by Twitter within 24 hours and he was thrown in Twitter jail, then Twitter threw the key to the Twitter jail down a storm drain or something.

Then all the fact-checkers immediately sprang into action. It’s a LIE!, they blared in headlines, and they rated the Tweet at ONE THOUSAND PINNOCHIOS. It was literally the biggest lie ever told. All the fact checkers insisted that there were NO U.S. involved bio labs in Ukraine. None. Zero. Furthermore, Russia wasn’t after the labs, because the labs DON’T EXIST. In fact, the fact checkers said it wasn’t just the stupidest thing anybody ever said, but it was the darkest and most reprehensible lie ever told since, well, Satan told Eve it was a good idea to eat that apple.

But then some alert Twitter followers noted that the US State Department had a web page talking about how the US was partnering with Ukraine on some biological laboratories over there for “pandemic preparedness” or whatever incoherent euphemism they are using these days. So that was weird, since the fact checkers said the labs didn’t exist.

And then yesterday, at a Senate hearing, Undersecretary of State for Political Affairs Victoria Nuland told Marco Rubio that well, um, the United States IS in fact working with Ukraine to stop biological research facilities from falling into the hands of Russian forces. So the Russians ARE after U.S.-involved bio labs, after all.

Whoops! It seems like the cycle time from when something is a banned conspiracy theory to when it is proven to be established fact is getting shorter and shorter. This one only took about 48 hours. It’s becoming more and more clear that we need to start “Fact Checker Checkers,” who will be groups of journalists who fact-check the fact checkers. And then we’ll need “Fact Checker Checker Checkers,” who fact-check the ones who fact-checked the fact checkers, and so on, ad infinitum.

Or you could just use your brain and ignore all this propaganda.

Now, I can’t confirm this next bit. Yet. But last week I ignored the cancelled map because I couldn’t confirm that, and now it’s been confirmed by the Undersecretary of State. So I feel like it’s worth mentioning that the same intrepid non-government researchers who originally found the labs are now saying they’ve linked the Ukrainian labs to a U.S. company called Metabiota, funded by Defense Department grants, which has links to — and I am not making this up — Hunter Biden, EcoHealth Alliance, and Jeffrey Epstein.

But don’t worry! This whole thing is just about Putin being evil and greedy and wanting to steal back the Soviet Union’s lost territory! Don’t ask questions!
