Merkel Responds to Allegations of Concealing Covid Origins Report.

Globalist former German Chancellor Angela Merkel has responded to allegations that she suppressed an intelligence report confirming that COVID-19 originated in a lab leak in China. The four-term premier’s office issued a statement Thursday asserting her firm rejection of the claim.

This comes after reports in German media indicated that Germany’s Federal Intelligence Service (BND) assessed the likelihood of a Wuhan laboratory leak as between 80 and 95 percent. Merkel allegedly commissioned an investigation but then withheld its findings from publication, as did her successor, Chancellor Olaf Scholz, who assumed office in December 2021. The decision was reportedly motivated by concerns over public panic and potential diplomatic tensions with China.

Jens Spahn, Germany’s health minister during the height of the outbreak, stated he was unaware of the report’s conclusions, having only learned about them through media channels. He emphasized that the lab leak theory had been acknowledged as a possibility but claimed any confirmation would not have changed public health responses.

The virus’s origin remains under scrutiny, whether from a laboratory leak or animal-to-human transmission. U.S. agencies like the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and the Department of Energy favor the lab leak hypothesis.

Merkel Expresses ‘Sorrow’ Over Trump’s Return, Recalls His ‘Urge to Be the Winner.’

Former German Chancellor Angela Merkel, who admitted over a million migrants during Europe’s 2015-16 migrant crisis, says she is concerned about President-elect Donald J. Trump returning to the White House. Globalist Merkel, who was in office during Trump’s first term, said of meetings with the America First leader: “The more people there were in the room, the greater was his urge to be the winner,” adding: “You can’t chat with him. Every meeting is a competition: you or me.”

Merkel, a notionally center-right politician, said, “It was already a disappointment for me that Hillary Clinton didn’t win in 2016. I would have liked a different outcome,” admitting she felt “sorrow” at Trump’s victory over Vice President Kamala Harris.

On dealing with President-elect Trump, she complained he was very inquisitive and wanted in-depth details “but only to read them for his own advantage, to find arguments that strengthen him and weaken others.”

In one notable G7 meeting in 2017, Trump allegedly stood up and threw Starburst candies on the table, remarking, “Here, Angela, don’t say I never give you anything.”

Merkel expressed feelings of “sorrow” at Trump’s recent electoral victory over Kamala Harris in the 2024 presidential election. She mentioned her disappointment in 2016 when Hillary Clinton lost, indicating a preference for a different political outcome in both instances.

Merkel’s tenure ended in 2021 after 16 years in office, leaving Germany a country where a significant portion of the population is now born overseas, energy prices are rising, and manufacturing is declining. The reign of Merkel also saw the emergence of radical Islamist terrorism as a significant threat to German security, including a 2016 Christmas market attack, which saw a dozen people murdered by a bogus Tunisian asylum seeker who entered the country under Merkel’s watch.

Merkel also made Germany largely reliant on Russia for cheap forms of energy, which has backfired since the Russian invasion of Ukraine in 2022, causing inflation and German economic decline.

Now Biden Claims He Spoke to Dead German Chancellor at Same Summit as Dead French Prez.

Joe Biden has blundered again while describing a G7 summit in 2021, claiming Chancellor Helmut Kohl of Germany – who left office in 1998 and died in 2017 – spoke with him about January 6th.

Previously, Biden told an audience in Nevada he spoke to “[President François] Mitterand from Germany, I mean from France” at the G7 in Britain, in a story first reported by The National Pulse.

Press pool reporters say the 81-year-old Democrat managed to remember Emmanuel Macron was President of France when repeating the story at a subsequent fundraiser in New York but instead gaffed when he came to the Chancellor of Germany.

“Helmut Kohl of Germany looked at me and said, ‘What would you say, Mr. President, if you picked up the London Times tomorrow morning and learned that 1,000 people had broken down… the doors of the British Parliament and killed some  bobbies on the way in [to] deny the Prime Minister to take office?’ And you think, what would we think?”

Biden repeated a similar story later that day, again claiming Helmut Kohl made the remarks in 2021. In that year, Germany was led by Angela Merkel.

WATCH: Kassam Explains The Democrat Insurrection, Border Crisis, the ‘Arrogance of Modernity’, and Predicts Mass Protests.

During a marathon appearance on War Room with Stephen K. Bannon this week, The National Pulse’s editor-in-chief Raheem Kassam hit on three topics which are likely to dominate national media through the New Year.

According to Kassam: the Democrats are dusting off their 2020 playbook in order to kick Donald Trump off the 2024 ballot; our national elites are propelled by arrogance – believing they’re smarter than those who came before them; and the unchecked border crisis will result in mass street protests against the Biden regime.

The Real 2020 Insurrection.

In late summer 2020, Kassam and Bill McGinley put together analysis of a strategy put forward by Democrat election-lawyer Marc Elias as well as Soros advisor Rosa Brooks. Their plans established a predicate for stealing the 2020 presidential election. The groups anticipated that Donald Trump would appear the overwhelming victor during initial election returns, but explained that the weeks-long counting of mail-in ballots would eventually put Joe Biden over the top.

As Kassam notes, various leftist groups like Act Blue provided material support for the actual insurrection – Antifa’s siege of the White House complex in late May and early June, as well as the routine Black Lives Matter violence in the run up to the 2020 election.

The Arrogance of Modernity.

Reflecting on the humility and wisdom of those who attended the town hall at the Cowboy Church in Casa Grande, Arizona on Wednesday night, Kassam noted our national political elites couldn’t appear more different. Instead of humility and a reverence for those who came before them, Kassam argues Democrats and the left believe they must prove they’re smarter than past generations.

“The people who were in the Cowboy Church in Casa Grande last night do not fancy themselves as smarter than this nation’s founders… the people who occupy the halls of power… start from a position that because several centuries have passed, therefore they must be smarter than the people who founded this nation,” Kassam said.

The Forthcoming Street Protests.

Finally, in an ominous prediction, Kassam told Bannon the continued unchecked flow of illegal immigrants into the United States under President Joe Biden’s watch will likely result in civil unrest. Referring to Americans, like those who attended the Cowboy Church town hall, Kassam said: “You feel in these peoples’ demeanor… they’re angry. And you feel that something will absolutely give way here, because these people I just don’t think are going to sit around and take it anymore.”

He noted the mass demonstrations which broke out in Germany against mass immigration when then-Chancellor Angela Merkel allowed 1.7 million migrants into her country. Kassam said the per-capita number of illegal immigrants in the U.S. had already surpassed the name which led to tens-of-thousands protesting in Germany.

DATA: Nearly 50,000 Germans Victims of Migrant-Perpetrated Crimes Including Murder, Rape, and Assault in 2022.

A staggering 47,923 Germans citizens were victims of migrant-perpetrated crimes such as murder, rape, robbery, and assault last year, according to statistics recently published by Germany‘s Federal Criminal Police Office, which represents an 18 percent increase on the previous year.

The statistics also reveal the most dangerous individuals are those who have their asylum claims rejected by the government, alongside migrants from North African coastal countries, such as Algeria, Morocco, and Tunisia. Despite comprising just 0.8 percent of all immigrants in the country, they account for 8.5 percent of all migrants suspected of criminality.

In contrast, 12,061 foreigners were victims of crimes committed by German citizens. However, the country does not differentiate between ethnic Germans and those of a migrant background, either born in the country or who went on to obtain a passport.

As a result, Germans are four times more likely to be attacked by migrants than vice versa, according to the data.

The rate of violent crime committed by migrants against Germans is “frightening,” according to the chairman of the Federal Police Union, Heiko Teggatz. “What many have always suspected has now been proven.”

“There is no more room for whitewashing. The federal and state governments must now act consistently and exhaust all possibilities to deport such criminals,” he adds.

Simultaneously, foreign nationals are also far more likely to receive state welfare than German citizens, with the country having spent nearly $150 billion on migrant welfare since 2010.

German Globalists Are Plotting Legislation to Ban the Populist ‘AfD’ Party.

Members of Angela Merkel‘s so-called “conservative” Christian Democrats (CDU) have begun drawing up legislation that would ban the populist Alternative for Germany (AfD) Party.

Marco Wanderwitz, a Member of the German Bundestag and former Eastern Commissioner of the Federal Government, who is currently drafting the legislation, requires 36 other Bundestag members to support the proposal to ensure the parliament votes on the motion later this year.

If banned, the AfD would be forced to forfeit all administrative and political positions it has already secured across the country and the European continent, with  the government also permitted to seize all the party’s assets and resources.

“We are dealing with a party that seriously endangers our free democratic basic order and the state as a whole,” Wanderwitz told a German broadcaster last week before adding: “that’s why it’s high time to ban them.”

Much of the German establishment, including Chancellor Olaf Scholz, has already begun proposing a ban on the party as it began rising in the national polls. It is currently in second place behind the CDU with 22.5 percent support.

There has also been a surge in violence against a number of the party’s members, with one of the AfD’s co-chairman recently hospitalized after supposedly being stabbed with a needle at a political event and the other forced into hiding following credible death threats, among many other incidents.
