Senators Urge Biden To Impose “TRAVEL BAN” On China Over Mystery Illness Spread

Sometimes I feel like I like in a bizarro world….

Like when BLM burned down major American Cities during the “Summer of Love” and the Democrat Party demonized police, only later to claim they never did that….We love Police!

It’s constant revisionist history.

Why?

Because they keep getting away with it!

Here’s the latest….

Remember when President Trump closed down travel with China as big-bad COVID broke out and he was instantly deemed a racist?

Well, now it’s ok?

Total clown show bizarro world:

United States Senate

President Joe Biden
The White House
1600 Pennsylvania Avenue NW
Washington, D.C. 20500

Dear Mr. President:

In light of an unknown respiratory illness spreading throughout the People’s Republic of China (PRC), we call on you to immediately restrict travel between the United States and the PRC. As you know, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) has a long history of lying about public health crises. During the COVID-19 pandemic, the CCP’s obfuscation of the truth, and lack of transparency, robbed the United States of vital knowledge about the disease and its origin.

On January 31, 2020, President Trump issued an order to restrict travel from the PRC into the United States to protect the American people and counter the spread of COVID-19. Many officials and commentators—including you—criticized his decision as being influenced by “xenophobia.” But history and common sense show his decision was the right one.

At this moment, the world faces another unknown pathogen emanating from the PRC that could spread to other countries, including the United States. The PRC has reported an increase in this mystery illness—which it claims to be pneumonia caused by known pathogens—since mid-October. This illness reportedly is a special hazard for children and has overrun hospitals in the north of the country. The World Health Organization (WHO) says it is unclear if the disease is due to an overall increase in respiratory infections or separate events. If history is any indication, we have cause to be concerned.

The WHO has requested that the CCP share “detailed information” about the mystery illness. However, CCP has an incentive to lie, just as they did throughout the COVID-19 pandemic and any new pathogen could derail its efforts to stimulate its economy. Besides, we should not wait for the WHO to take action given its track record of slavish deference to the CCP. We must take the necessary steps to protect the health of Americans, and our economy. That means we should immediately restrict travel between the United States and the PRC until we know more about the dangers posed by this new illness. A ban on travel now could save our country from death, lockdowns, and further outbreaks later.

Thank you for your attention to this important matter.

Sincerely,

[Signatures]

Marco Rubio
U.S. Senator

JD Vance
U.S. Senator

It does feel very much like 2020 again, doesn’t it?

Mystery virus emerges at almost exactly the same time (December before the election year)….

And when I was Googling this story I got this alert:

I haven’t seen that alert in a while, but I remember seeing it a LOT back in 2020.

Let me translate that alert for you….

That’s Google saying “we have a story breaking that we don’t want to get out, and we need a little more time to decide how we’re going to censor and/or spin this one.”

Here’s more on the breaking story, from Townhall:

A group of Republican senators wrote to President Biden on Friday calling on him to enact a travel ban on China over a “mystery illness” spreading in the PRC.

Given the Chinese Community Party’s history of lying about public health emergencies, as seen during the COVID-19 pandemic, the senators say the move is necessary “until we know more about the dangers posed by this new illness.”

The World Health Organization has requested more information from China about the surge in pneumonia cases affecting children, but the senators say the U.S. shouldn’t wait around for the WHO, given its “track record of slavish deference to the CCP.”

“At this moment, the world faces another unknown pathogen emanating from the PRC that could spread to other countries, including the United States,” Sens. Marco Rubio (R-FL), Rick Scott (R-FL), J.D. Vance (R-OH), Tommy Tuberville (R-AL), and Mike Braun (R-IN) wrote in the letter. “The PRC has reported an increase in this mystery illness—which it claims to be pneumonia caused by known pathogens—since mid-October. This illness reportedly is a special hazard for children and has overrun hospitals in the north of the country. The World Health Organization (WHO) says it is unclear if the disease is due to an overall increase in respiratory infections or separate events. If history is any indication, we have cause to be concerned.”
