Did the NSA bust China's coronavirus cover-up?

It would be great of the NSA supported America and not the Deep State.

I would be a little careful with that. Applied to the FBI and the CIA and at least the office and staff of the Director of National Intelligence you are spot on.

But I don’t see the level of leaking and political activism coming out of NSA that we all see on a regular basis coming from the rest of the Intelligence Community.

Remember, this is the organization tasked with collecting electronic communications. I think they are world class when it comes to that basic task.

So I’m hopeful you are wrong about the Deep State connection. But I wouldn’t bet my life on that either.

Comma???

I assume you mean "communication". Autocorrect strikes again?

Seems to me the NSA has quite a lot of computer power, but maybe are they too bogged down capturing every text, email, and phone conversation of every US citizen.

Maybe their priorities are off just a bit.

The chicoms are going to look and feel really stupid when there is either nobody with any money to buy their chit or nobody wants it anymore or some combination of the two.

When that happens the next step for their leaders is to fight off the revolution by the people.

If we had a CIA that was actually working for the US they would help orchestrate a change of power in China.

“was originally ignored by the NSA. This would explain why Trump and Secretary of State Mike Pompeo weren’t more alarmed in early January.”

Hindsight is wonderful. Have you never ignored some bit of information, then realized later that it was the missing piece in your puzzle?

Yes! (Or “comms”). Posting by phone is dangerous.

I'm taking a few hits on that comment about Deep State nestled in the NSA but as InterceptPoint says the FBI and CIA seem to be compromised. I've read Sabotage: America's Enemies within the CIA, by Rowan Scarborough.

I'm not sure how the NSA could remain pure through eight years of the Obama Administration. It seems that no Democrat can be trusted in national security matters. I have no inside knowledge so I hope you three are correct and NSA has managed to police itself of DNC activist moles.
