Today Joe Biden signed an order to prevent federal agencies from using any terms connecting the Coronavirus to China, including “Wuhan virus” or “Chinese virus”. This memo was released along with a series of memos, including one restricting the terms deemed acceptable for the CBP and ICE to use when referencing illegal immigrants.
The memo blames “the actions of political leaders” for “furthering xenophobic sentiments” against Asian-Americans and Pacific Islanders, alluding to the rhetoric of the Trump era and indirectly blaming Trump for violence against Asian-American and Pacific Islander communities.
This adds to the collection of jabs at Trump that the Biden administration has made since being in office, among accusing him of causing the border crisis. During his time in office, Trump repeatedly referred to COVID as the “Chinese virus” or the “Wuhan virus”.
When criticized for his terminology and accused of being racist, Trump defended his word choice by saying, “It comes from China. It’s not racist at all.” Trump had also said that “China tried to say, at one point… that it was caused by American soldiers. That can’t happen, it’s not gonna happen, not as long as I’m president.” However, now that he is no longer in office, this rhetoric is once again being termed as racist and insensitive.

They’re Trying to Shut Us Down
Over the last several months, I’ve lost count of how many times the powers-that-be have tried to shut us down. They’ve sent hackers at us, forcing us to take extreme measures on web security. They sent attorneys after us, but thankfully we’re not easily intimidated by baseless accusations or threats. They’ve even gone so far as to make physical threats. Those can actually be a bit worrisome but Remington has me covered.
For us to continue to deliver the truth that Americans need to read and hear, we ask you, our amazing audience, for financial assistance. We have a Giving Fuel page to help us pay the bills. It’s brand new so don’t be discouraged by the lack of donations there. It’s a funny reality that the fewer the donations that have been made, the less likely people are willing to donate to it. One would think this is counterintuitive, but sometimes people are skeptical because they think that perhaps there’s a reason others haven’t been donating. In our situation, we’re just getting started so please don’t be shy if you have the means to help.
Thank you and God bless!
