State Department contractor who led Wuhan COVID leak probe shut down by Biden identifies top official who 'downplayed links to China, didn't want to investigate origins and ignored his persistent warnings'
2021-05-28
[Daily Mail, Where America Gets Its News]
  • The contractor who led State's task force probing the origins of coronavirus, said former Assistant Secretary of State Chris Ford led to its termination

  • David Asher said Ford and other colleagues 'deliberately' downplayed links of the inception of COVID-19 to the Wuhan Institute of Virology in China

  • 'My view is it was a biological weapons program,' Asher said

  • Ford said he did have 'procedural' and 'substantive concerns' about the probe

  • He blamed Asher's team for keeping the investigation a secret and bypassing State Department and intelligence community experts

  • Biden's administration shut down the probe

  • On Wednesday, however, the president announced he tasking the intelligence community in investigating the origins of coronavirus to report back in 90 days

#5  Democrats and Deep State (NIH) gave China the money to develop COVID. With Fauci's oversight.

#4  /\ Yes, no need in permitting this thing to boil over into some type of Coca-Cola style anti-China boycott of Walmart, Target, Best Buy, etc.

Or worse yet, exposing the complicity of the shadowy USG entities.
