House Dems Slam GOP Plan To Cut Funding to North Korean, Chinese, and Iranian Research Labs
Free Beacon ^ | Jul 14, 2023 | Andrew Kerr

Republican lawmakers advanced a bill Wednesday that would ban funding of research labs controlled by North Korea, China, and other adversarial nations. Democrats say the move will put America’s national security at risk...

To Democrats on the House Appropriations Committee, led by Rep. Rosa DeLauro (D., Conn.), these measures unravel "the hard-fought credibility and influence the United States has earned as a global leader," the lawmakers said in a press release Wednesday. "The bill threatens our national security and puts the American people and global health at risk," the Democrats added.

DeLauro accused Republicans during a markup hearing Wednesday of catering to the most "extreme" members of their caucus "at the expense of America’s historic position on the world stage."

It’s so much better if all governments participate with each other in the demise of their citizens. /sarc

“these measures unravel “the hard-fought credibility and influence the United States has earned”

Translation: These measures have helped spread American expert means, methods and operations in biological research. Theres is Zero security reasons for why we’d want to help our adversaries in these research areas.

We don't use biological weapons anymore. We just fund a laboratory in every country and when we choose, or by accident, we release a few infected beagles to roam the streets.

Weapons of Fauci Destruction.

I don’t know about “we,” but it definitely looks like “they” were thinking of treason.

This probably has to do with secrecy-minded dictatorial governments being effective barriers against investigative journalists and against animal rights activists who have made it extremely difficult and costly to conduct such testing in the West, or even finding employees who will keep their mouths shut.

Testing in North Korea or Iran is a way to do animal testing without PETA and others making a stink.
