For weeks now, President Donald Trump has been making the case that the coronavirus originated not in nature but in a lab in Wuhan, China. He said late last week that he had a "high degree of confidence" that was what happened (although he didn't specify why he felt that way) and on Sunday night in a Fox town hall offered cryptically "something happened."
Enter Anthony Fauci, the head of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease and perhaps the single most prominent doctor in the world at the moment. In an interview with National Geographic posted on Monday night, Fauci was definitive about the origins of the virus which has sickened more than a million Americans and killed more than 68,000: "If you look at the evolution of the virus in bats and what's out there now, [the scientific evidence] is very, very strongly leaning toward this could not have been artificially or deliberately manipulated ... Everything about the stepwise evolution over time strongly indicates that [this virus] evolved in nature and then jumped species." Now, before we play the game of "he said, he said" remember this: Only one of these two people is a world-renowned infectious disease expert. And it's not Donald Trump.
In short, Fauci's view on the origins of the disease matters a whole lot more than Trump's opinion about where it came from. Especially because, outside of Trump and his immediate inner circle, most people in a position to know are very, very skeptical of the Trump narrative that the virus came out of a lab -- whether accidentally or on purpose.

“CNN is the official network of the Deep State all crap, all the time, 24-7-365”
CNN is owned by ATT, a highly regulated utility. It must do the bidding of the leviathan state or enjoy the IRS, SEC, DOJ, FCC, FBI and other agencies constantly disrupting its business interests or preventing them from expanding. Today’s bureaucracy will also exert the heavy hand on the banks and financial institutions a company resisting the state depends on to fund operations.
There cannot be a free press if the state has the power to license operations or restrict the investment capital available to the media outlet. Ben Franklin could print up flyers on his own printing press and distribute them in the state. The only way the state could shut him down would be to arrest him and take his printing press. Today, the state has much more subtle ways of influencing electronic and print media.
Yes he is. He is lying to protect himself from his actions in funding the Lab in Wuhuan. He has lied to Congress. He has lied to the public. He has lied about medicines that will treat this disease easily, effectively and they are cheap. He lied about "gain of function" funding. He must lie least he suffer the consequences of his reckless actions.
But worse, Fauci is a very skilled and trained doctor. He knew the proper way to handle this disease. He did not, and this was 100% political. He is evil.
More likely, the Obama administration shut down U.S. research into coronaviruses to steer a monopoly to the Communist Chinese. (Why was Hunter Biden getting paid to sit on company boards and kick "10% to the Big Guy")?
The virus sickened employees at the Wuhan lab in the Fall of 2019 and it spread from there.
Fauci had to keep his mouth shut to cover his collusion into the crime of sabotaging U.S. research. Now that they've had enough time to cover up evidence of the crime of sending this work to China, they can pretend to investigate.
And all who defended him, the media, politicians, are liars as well.
Do not trust anything they say. They are proven liars.
Next up: can we trust what they say about the vaccines, Global Warming, racism, sexism, on and on.
All lies. But we knew that.
Good ol’ CNN...and the media at large.
They didn’t even bother to investigate - just decided to attack President Trump.
All of this ridicule to portray him as some sort of a madman probably was worth at least a -1% of the vote. Mission accomplished.
