State Department Report Found Wuhan Lab-Leak Plausible

The Wall Street Journal reported Monday that during the Trump Administration the US State Department was engaged in an investigation that found the potential of a Wuhan lab leak that led to the COVID-19 global pandemic “plausible.”

From the WSJ:

“A report on the origins of Covid-19 by a U.S. government national laboratory concluded that the hypothesis claiming the virus leaked from a Chinese lab in Wuhan is plausible and deserves further investigation, according to people familiar with the classified document.

The study was prepared in May 2020 by the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory in California and was drawn on by the State Department when it conducted an inquiry into the pandemic’s origins during the final months of the Trump administration.”

For more than a year, the mainstream media and big tech have considered it heresy to question the origins of COVID-19, relying heavily on a letter orchestrated by Wuhan Lab Funder and President of the EcoHealth Alliance, Peter Daszak.  Unbeknownst to the unofficial propaganda arm of the DNC (the media), US Intelligence agencies had been conducting serious inquiries into the origins of COVID-19.

The Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory has an intelligence wing known as “Z Division” which has been conducting the research into the origins of the virus, relying primarily on the genomic sequencing and markers contained in the SARS-CoV-2 virus, responsible for the COVID-19 infection. Previous information regarding the virus has been provided by the Chinese Government and the Wuhan lab itself, including the information used to debunk the lab theory early on.  In fact, Dr. Shi Zhengli’s genomic sequencing is the most reference study as to the origins of SARS-CoV-2.  Numerous studies used by the media and big-tech to quash the lab-leak reference this Chinese-supplied information.

Previous efforts to study the origins of SARS-CoV-2 have been stonewalled by the Chinese Government.  The initial WHO report contained no independently obtained or analyzed information from the Wuhan Institute of Virology nor any of the surrounding areas.  As previously revealed, the WHO report was “compiled” off of Chinese provided information, interviews, and analysis.  It wasn’t until the Chinese Government allowed for a team to be escorted to various locations within Wuhan in 2021, more than a year after the initial outbreak, that investigators were even allowed on the ground.  Even then, the investigators were hand-picked by Chinese officials, and only shown locations or were given access to researchers who the Chinese allowed them to see and contact.

The revelations of this new report further damage the already decimated credibility of the media, who now are playing catch up to the more than year-old story.  Only recently did Facebook lift the ban on stories that raised or promoted a lab-leak theory.   Emails with Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg were found in the release emails from Dr. Anthony Fauci as they coordinated their efforts to squash the lab-leak theory.  Furthermore, sites like RedState were forced by Facebook, Twitter, and other Tech companies to heavily edit and/or remove stories that the tech-giants found “lacked credibility” even though many of the sources included NIH studies, quotes from world-renowned scientists, and other previous MSM reports.  The questions regarding the origin of SARS-CoV-2 could have likely been answered long before now, had the MSM and Big Tech not had such an unhealthy fascination with making Trump wrong.  Unfortunately for real journalists, like those you’ll find at RedState and other Townhall Media sites, little action will be taken against these tyrannical tech/media overlords because they have bought their influence in Congressional leaders.

Later today, I will discuss two papers that analyze the likelihood of a lab leak.  Stay tuned.
