DeSantis Signs ‘Anti-Communist Education’ Bill Into Law ‘We’re going to tell the truth about the evils of communism‚’ says the governor.https://t.co/JQz130186y — The Epoch Times (@EpochTimes) April 18‚ 2024 From FOX 13 Tampa Bay: Rafael Montalvo‚ president of Brigade 2506 Veterans Association‚ was among the people who addressed the crowd at the Hialeah Gardens Museum. The museum features a building funded through the Florida Department of State that was constructed to honor “the noble efforts of the 2506 Assault Brigade during the Bay of Pigs Invasion.” “The most important fight against communism is the one that’s done in the schoolrooms‚” Montalvo said. “That’s where the battle is happening right now. And this is going to be a tool that’s going to give us the victory in that area.” Florida’s public school students currently can encounter lessons on communism in high-school social studies classes and in a seventh-grade civics and government course. A high-school U.S. government class that is a requirement for graduation also includes 45 minutes of instruction on “Victims of Communism Day.” Florida also previously had a course titled ‘Americanism vs. Communism‚’ which was required for public high school students between 1961 and 1991. With the state set to bolster its communism history offerings in schools‚ Diaz highlighted how anti-communism sentiment is strong in South Florida. The measure authorizes the education department to seek input from “any individual who was a victim of communism or any state or nationally recognized organization dedicated to the victims of communism‚” as it crafts standards for the curriculum.

According to Daily Mail‚ U.S. lawmakers are demanding answers about a $1 million collaboration between the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) and the CCP-run Chinese Academy of Sciences to make bird flu viruses more dangerous to people. American taxpayers are footing the bill for the project‚ the outlet reports. “This research‚ funded by American taxpayers‚ could potentially generate dangerous new lab-created virus strains that threaten our national security and public health‚” a bipartisan group of Congress members wrote in a letter to USDA Secretary Tom Vilsack. “Earlier this year it was revealed the United States government was funneling $1 million to China to see if scientists could make ‘highly pathogenic avian influenza’ more contagious to mammals using gain-of-function research. The research involves infecting ducks and geese with different strains of viruses to make them more infectious‚ and studying the viruses’ potential to ‘jump into mammalian hosts‚” Shadow of Ezra writes. “It is being funded through the US Department of Agriculture and the main collaborators on the project are USDA Southeast Poultry Research Laboratory‚ the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the University of Edinburgh’s Roslin Institute – a Wuhan lab partner. Joe Biden’s administration announced it will work with 50 countries to identify and respond to infectious diseases‚ with the goal of preventing a pandemic that the US’ own research could actually spark.” 𝗨.𝗦. 𝗴𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗻𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗶𝘀 𝗰𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗕𝗶𝗿𝗱 𝗙𝗹𝘂 𝘃𝗶𝗿𝘂𝘀𝗲𝘀 𝗶𝗻 𝗮 𝗖𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗲𝘀𝗲 𝗮𝗿𝗺𝘆 𝗹𝗮𝗯 – 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗽𝗮𝘆𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗶𝘁 Earlier this year it was revealed the United States government was funneling $1 million to China to see if… pic.twitter.com/6leUoTbyZT — Shadow of Ezra (@ShadowofEzra) April 17‚ 2024 * Image from Shadow of Ezra X Post * Daily Mail reports: The research comes as fears about bird flu rise. A farm worker in Texas caught the H5N1 strain that is racing through cattle across the US earlier this month‚ becoming only the second ever American to be diagnosed – and experts are bracing for more cases. In February‚ it was revealed the United States government was funneling $1million to China to see if scientists could make ‘highly pathogenic avian influenza’ more contagious to mammals using gain-of-function research. Government records showed the collaboration began in April 2021 and is scheduled to be funded through March 2026. The USDA previously told this website the project was applied for in 2019 and approved in 2020. The research involves infecting ducks and geese with different strains of viruses to make them more infectious‚ and studying the viruses’ potential to ‘jump into mammalian hosts‚’ according to research documents obtained by the watchdog group White Coat Waste Project and shared exclusively with this website. It is being funded through the USDA and the main collaborators on the project are USDA Southeast Poultry Research Laboratory‚ the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the University of Edinburgh’s Roslin Institute – a Wuhan lab partner. And it has been ongoing despite similar research being restricted in 2022 and growing concerns that dubious Chinese studies may have started the Covid pandemic. “The health and safety of Americans are too important to just wing it‚ and Biden’s USDA should have had more apprehension before sending any taxpayer dollars to collaborate with the CCP on risky avian flu research‚” Sen. Joni Ernst (R-IA) told the New York Post in February. “They should know by now to suspect ‘fowl’ play when it comes to researchers who have ties to the dangerous Wuhan Lab‚ and simply switching from bats to birds causes concern that they are creating more pathogens of pandemic potential‚” she added.

Joni Ernst demands answers on Biden’s USDA spending $1M on ‘dangerous bird flu experiments’ with China https://t.co/erqI8fxFCV pic.twitter.com/j47IuAdgg0 — New York Post (@nypost) February 15‚ 2024 NEW – USDA and Chinese CCP lab are creating lethal bird flu viruses as part of $1m collaboration – funded by US taxpayers: report https://t.co/aRbF5UEyka — Insider Paper (@TheInsiderPaper) April 17‚ 2024 From the New York Post: Such viral experiments have “already caused outbreaks and killed humans‚” Ernst also wrote to Vilsack‚ noting that “China’s labs have notoriously lax safety standards.” Other bird flu testing will take place at the USDA’s Agricultural Research Service in Athens‚ Ga.‚ while the University of Edinburgh’s Roslin Institute will complete statistical modeling for the experiments. Federal grant data portals show the award date was Jan. 26‚ 2021‚ and $632‚813.50 has been doled out so far. Performance dates for the 60-month project stretch from April 1‚ 2021‚ to March 31‚ 2026. USDA spokesperson Allan Rodriguez accused Ernst of spreading “misinformation” by not reaching out to the department directly about the research and said the “project was applied for in 2019 and was approved in 2020.” “USDA’s funding is only being committed to the specific components carried out by our own team located in Athens‚ Georgia‚ and is not [in] any way contributing to research taking place in the UK or China‚” Rodriguez said. “Because animal diseases present a global threat‚ it is common for international researchers to conduct independent research that’s connected to the same end goal — but what Senator Ernst lays out in her letter is far off base from what’s actually transpiring‚ and on top of that is based on approval decisions that predate this Administration.” Diane Cutler‚ a former grant fraud investigator for the Department of Health and Human Services Office of Inspector General‚ told The Post it was “disingenuous for USDA to insinuate that its research is separate and is not contributing to the research in China when clearly an official collaboration to conduct this research has been established within USDA’s system of records.”
