This article in the Post about how the State Department was warning that a Coronavirus could escape from the Wuhan Lab’s insufficient containment system seems credible.
“Two years before the novel coronavirus pandemic upended the world, U.S. Embassy officials visited a Chinese research facility in the city of Wuhan several times and sent two official warnings back to Washington about inadequate safety at the lab, which was conducting risky studies on coronaviruses from bats. The cables have fueled discussions inside the U.S. government about whether this or another Wuhan lab was the source of the virus — even though conclusive proof has yet to emerge.”
To be clear: he’s not saying it was “manufactured” in the lab, or deliberately released. Just that it seems more likely to have infected someone at/or otherwise escaped from it.

‘When somebody’s president of the United States, the authority is total, and that’s the way it’s gotta be. … The federal government has absolute power.’
It started with these tweets this morning:
….It is the decision of the President, and for many good reasons. With that being said, the Administration and I are working closely with the Governors, and this will continue. A decision by me, in conjunction with the Governors and input from others, will be made shortly!

Lady reporter kept asking him, “Who told you that? That’s not true.”
Then Pence took the podium, was asked if that’s what he thought too, and cited the “national emergency.”
Mostly they were just bullshitting. They’re not going to try to order the governors to obey any lifting of the lockdowns. But it does go to show how easy it is for them to reach for such framing.
(It was hilarious to see liberal-media boy in the audience immediately invoke the 10th Amendment against Trump, who just shrugged it off. Jeez, what do you support slavery now too?!)

Looks like her licence to kill might not count in this case as the murder took place off the clock.

Year Zero 110: Covid19 and the CDC w/Dr James Lyons-Weiler
Tommy invited Dr James Lyons-Weiler, the CEO and founder of IPAK, on the podcast to discuss Covid19 and how the CDC bungled its response. Dr Jack has been extremely critical of the CDC and FDA response to the novel Coronavirus, and he was more than happy to spend time discussing what this virus is, what he’s discovered in his research, and how the CDC has made this crisis worse.
