Conservative political commentator Glenn Beck joined Tucker Carlson Wednesday to drop a massive bombshell on the show about a partnership between Moderna and the United States Government on the development of an mRNA coronavirus vaccine – months before the declared beginning of the Covid-19 pandemic.

Beck began the show by reminding many viewers Gain-of-function research conducted at the Wuhan Institue of Virology happened even earlier than many had previously supposed, with the experimentation occurring under the watch of Dr. Fauci and the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) as far back as November 2015. Gain-of-function research is a scientific process that involves taking viruses previously only able to affect certain populations of animals and intentionally modifying them to infect humans.

It was also pointed out that a published paper demonstrated the aftermentioned claims to be true, both dismissing any allegations that such a claim is a conspiracy theory and proving Dr. Fauci to have lied in the past about his knowledge on the subject.
