Lab leak theory was dismissed as 'fringe,' 'conspiracy' at start of pandemic

Congressional Republicans erupted on Twitter Sunday afternoon after the U.S. Energy Department reportedly assessed that the COVID-19 pandemic likely originated from an accidental lab leak in China.

The Energy Department, which was previously undecided on the origin of the pandemic, now joins the FBI’s stance that the coronavirus likely spread due to a mishap at a Chinese laboratory, the Wall Street Journal reported, citing a classified intelligence report recently provided to the White House and key members of Congress.

The lab leak theory, or the theory that the virus came from a lab leak at the Wuhan Institute of Virology in Wuhan, China, was widely dismissed as a conspiracy theory and "misinformation" by Democrats, major news outlets, scientists and social media companies in the early stages of the pandemic.

Now, Republicans are calling for accountability from the Chinese Communist Party as evidence mounts that it is to blame for the pandemic.

Exactly. The Chinese built on Gain of Function research that initally built the virus in North Carolina. Then the research was moved to Wuhan, and two of the researchers on the original team were from the Wuhan Institute of Virology. The Chinese refined it, perhaps, but they didn't invent it (unless you count the two members of the original team).

And at the bottom of it all there is a Fauxi.

And what happened from there did China no good either. The world wide lockdowns and power grabs... Coordinated, and infesting many governments.

There's something waaay bigger going on. Add to that all the food processing and power plants being destroyed... It still ain't done yet.

Demand apologies from who?

And who’s going to hold China accountable when many people in Washington DC are on the payroll
