Pompeo Slams Biden For Failing To Hold China Accountable For COVID Cover-up: 'Weakness Begets Risk'
Fox News ^ | 08.03.2021 | Fox News Staff

Former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo joined "Hannity" Monday to hit President Biden's "weak" Chinese policy and the risk that comes with not being able to stand up to America's adversaries.

MIKE POMPEO: Yes. Well, we’ve known since I spoke about this—at least in the spring of 2020—that this virology lab almost certainly the place, Sean, that this virus came from and we’ve seen the deep cover-up, right? It continues to this day. They won’t let anybody in to do the investigation in a proper way. The Chinese Communist Party is responsible for allowing people to travel with a known, very contagious virus—one that is very lethal, and they put it across the world. This is incredibly reckless and they’ve got to be held accountable. There’s lots of ways we can do this. It doesn’t appear that the Biden administration’s going to head down any of those paths. There are many tools, without any further legislation, that the Biden administration could use to hold the Chinese Communist Party accountable for millions of deaths around the world and billions of dollars in loss that resulted from this Chinese foisting of a virus upon the world.

Biden is no longer in control of his faculties. Harris lives in la-la land. Democrats are all disconnected from reality. No wonder they’re all scared to death of Donald Trump and rightly so.

~~~

They did that on purpose. The travel I mean.
Perhaps the leak itself was an accident. But once they knew that Wuhan itself was in the throws of an outbreak, and that it would quickly spread across China, there’s no way they wanted to suffer being the epicenter of a pandemic. They actually NEEDED it to be disseminated, for strategic purposes.

Chinese Communists didn’t care if it spread or not. No different from their other types of pollution.

“. . .COVID Cover-up: ‘Weakness Begets Risk’”

Predators always attack the weak in the herd, the livestock not defended.

Weakness invites attacks. Weakness invites discounting as a ‘player’ in whatever affairs are going on. Weakness invites confusion and a bitter choice between doing too little to regain control, or doing WAY too much.

God forbid this country has to make a choice between an ineffectual try at ‘gunboat’ diplomacy and nuclear war.
