WHAT'S HAPPENING:
Secretary of State Mike Pompeo has accused China of hindering the United States’ ability to battle COVID-19. He has claimed the foreign country denied sending samples of the virus to scientists, even destroy what samples they had.
This sparked criticism from the mainstream media. Yet now, China is admitting he was right.
The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) admitted late last week that it destroyed coronavirus lab samples during the initial months of the outbreak, which originated in Wuhan, China…
By destroying the lab samples, China has made it significantly harder to identify the exact place where the outbreak originated which comes as there is a growing internationally coalition demanding an investigation into China over the pandemic.
WHY IT'S IMPORTANT:
The Chinese government has been pushing a narrative that is has been the “hero” of the virus pandemic. Media outlets and even the World Health Organization has repeated talking points from the communist regime, claiming they have been doing what’s “best” for the world.
Yet the facts seem to suggest a different story. China has tried to accuse the United States of “creating” and spreading the virus. The foreign country supposedly suppressed news of the outbreak in order to hoard medical supplies. They refused to let CDC officials enter their country to study the disease.
Now, they are admitting they destroyed samples—preventing scientists in other countries from studying COVID-19 as soon as possible.
This new revelation could possibly lend weight to lawsuits aimed at China. Numerous countries are joining a movement to hold the communist nation financially accountable for their role in the outbreak. Key Takeaways:
-SoS Pompeo accused China of destroying samples. The CCP recently admitted this was true.
-China and the WHO have tried to push a narrative they are leading the world in the COVID-19 battle, despite conflicting evidence.
-New revelations could help lawsuits against China, which seek restitution over pandemic losses.

Trump’s best appointment, by far.
This is a NEWS ALERT on CNNNBCMSDNCABC!!!!/s
Yes. He is.
The Trump pick successes are silent. When he choose a bad one, the news explodes with criticism.
Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) said Thursday (14 May 2020) that President Trump’s repeated attacks on China are designed merely to divert the public’s attention from potential administration mistakes in the early stages of the coronavirus response.
Pompeo is not on Trump’s team. What did he do in his time at the CIA? Who did he leave behind to run it? How effectively did he rein in the State Department before (or after) the attempt Ukraine impeachment coup? Don’t be surprised if he’s a Deep State asset who turns on Trump in October, if needed.
What is so incredibly ironic, is under SOS Clinton, Obama never appointed an IG to the State Department. So for 4 years she could do anything she wanted with no lawful over-site, thus the private email server. This current one, that Trump just fired was nominated when John Kerry took over the State Department, and this IG for 7 years sat on Clintons malfeasance.
As opposed to Jeff Sessions who turned on him in about 15 minutes?
But ... but ... supposedly Pompeo asked someone to walk his dog. Isn’t that more important than investigating how/why China infected the whole damn world with a bioweapon?
Please. Let’s concentrate on the big stuff, e.g., dog walking.
The chicoms made this mess and they must own the cleanup.
Some assets are held for deployment at later dates. Sessions at DOJ obviously had major damage to do early on.
The Chicoms are our biggest external threat for sure, but the neocon Deep State want you thinking just like that. They’d love a) to shift focus and blame from them and b) to get another war environment going.
Grenell is among his best appointments.
I don’t trust Pompeo. He did nothing at C_A. And ran some exercise without telling the President.
The media will ignore this and report more important Pompeo news, someone walked his dog.
I wish there was a way to show the US populace how much money these politicians, like Nancy, get from China.
The amount of money that the Clintons got from both China (remember Johnny Chung) and from Russia (https://www.usapoliticstoday.org/russia-clinton-foundation/) is horrendous.
Excellent!
Communists never admit to making a mistake or for lying.
I wonder what leverage was used to get this admission.
