Expect this to erupt in the next few days.

Expect Dr. Falsi to disappear from public view.

The real question is how much of their arsenal is cheap Chinese crap with a high degree of failure.

We figured out in January it came from the Wuhan biolab, no surprise.

"is the DIRECTOR"

He is and has been the Director of NIAID for 36 years.

It's one of the National Institutes of Health. He's not NIH Director.

It stands for National Institute for Allergy and Infectious Disease.

A 36 year fiefdom of $5 billion a year. And he had nothing when this came.

“No disrespect meant but why do you guys talk like the Chinese have no nukes that would utterly devastate our country if we nuked them?”

They have some. And yes they would. We, however, could reduce every one of their major cities to rubble 10 times over. But I’ve mellowed as to what I think our response should be. It’d be just as devastating to those monsters.

Revoke their MFN status.
Kick them out of the WTO
Cancel every visa held by a Chinese national and give them 7 days to GTFO.
Re-establish full diplomatic relations with Taiwan.
Announce that the United States doesn’t object to Japan and South Korea going nuclear.
Recall our Ambassador for consultations.

Those will do for a start.

It’s not the supposition that is news. It’s Trump saying he has seen evidence that gives him “a high degree of confidence” of it.

Now the MSM has to spin it and spin hard. It’s quite the shot across their bow.

That they got a nickel is a crime but 3.7 million is pocket change for the CCP and its biowarfare industry.

Trump is effectively blocked from taking decisive action. Look at one scenario:

Boeing has a large operation in China. If Trump threatens serious action, China puts the squeeze on Boeing, then Boeing puts the squeeze on Lindseed Graham in S.C. where Boeing has a big plant.

See how that works? How many other unreliable Senate Pubbies would get with the program like this?

Unless Trump has intel that nails the ChiComs (better than Colon Powell’s UN WMD presentation), he is handcuffed - until after the election.

Lots of smaller (but significant steps) are available, but no knockout punch.

Why isn't everyone on FR talking about this? Did I miss a post on it?

Because the Fearbros are starting to realize they been snookered.

And they are shamed into silence.

This whole things was a Derp State/China op in the ongoing shadow war. The invisible enemy that Trum constantly talks about isn't the flu. It's the Derp State.

Fearbros just haven't been listening correctly.

Because they have no Q.

Still time to catch up, if you hurry.

😃

The lefty take on this seems to be that the president is claiming that the Wuhan lab engineered the virus: this is something that he explicitly did NOT say. I expect that the narrative over the next 48 hours will be a deliberate effort to build a straw man "Trump claims without evidence that virus was engineered", something that the Wuhan lab probably lacked the ability to do at this point. Then when it turns out that what Trump's been briefed on is that it's either a wild strain that had been collected by the lab, and accidentally released, or is a result of their much published "gain of function" research, the media can say "see, it's just an accident". I don't think that will work. What Trump did do, very effectively I thought was emphasize that regardless of the source, China was able to isolate Wuhan from the west of China, but did not isolate Wuhan from the rest of the world. THAT's where this turns on the CCP, and Trump was right to set the stage for that truth to become a topic of global public discussion over the coming weeks.

Excellent question. I haven’t seen any reporting on this until your post.

like everything else they make :)

But though a dead pet is horrible and a defective ventilator sucks, I don’t much like rolling the dice on whether their nukes are any good or not.

And even what you list may lead to a military confrontation.

But everything you list must be done and the Lord hates a cowards so I agree.

I’ll be terrified but I’ll agree :)

I HATE no chance of survival odds...like with nukes :)

Could have ended all those action hero movies with one nuke :) Just drop a tactical one right on them and the movie is over!

There was a post a week or so ago about the piece epoch times did about that lab.

I will search back on it for you.

The virus may have been enhanced in Wuhan Lab, but vials may have come from somewhere else.

NATO Military Games in the Fall of Oct 2019, are something to look into further, too

We are hip deep in a military confrontation with them now.
