When I was at the Countering Weapons of Mass Destruction (CWMD) program at DHS, the official position of the program about the origin of Covid was that it either “naturally” originated from the wet market, or it was a lab leak. The official position was “both of those scenarios are equally plausible.” Keep in mind, the wet market just happened to be a few miles from where they were doing gain of function testing on that very virus. You don’t have to be an expert, common sense would tell you it came from the lab. The only question is was it intentional or unintentional. In talking to the scientists that worked on that program, they told me that their true position was that it more than likely came from a lab leak. They told me they had authored a report with that assessment. I asked why that assessment was never released. One scientist told me directly that the SES and GS-15 that presided over the program stopped that assessment from moving forward. The reason given was, that assessment would cause political title waves, and they didn’t want to deal with the effects. These are the people we have working for us at the highest levels of government. These people are not only too risk adverse to make important decisions, they are also just downright evil. Nothing will change in this country, and it will never be fixed, until the government is purged of these bad actors.
