Former State Department Official David Asher: Americans "Will Soon Learn" COVID Origins Truth
2024-12-29
[ZERO] Revelations that senior US intelligence officials in the early days of the virus pandemic suppressed research indicating a Chinese lab leak as the origin of Covid-19 surfaced in a new Wall Street Journal report titled "Behind Closed Doors: The Spy-World Scientists Who Argued Covid Was a Lab Leak" late this week.

The investigation by WSJ's Michael Gordon and Warren Strobel shows the disagreements within the intelligence community over Covid origins...
But an investigation by The Wall Street Journal shows that the disagreements among intelligence experts over what should be included in the report ran deeper than is publicly known. Nor were the FBI scientists the only ones who believed that the intelligence directorate's review didn't tell the whole story.

Three scientists at the National Center for Medical Intelligence, part of the Pentagon's Defense Intelligence Agency, conducted a scientific study that concluded that Covid-19 was manipulated in a laboratory in a risky research effort. But that analysis was at odds with the assessment of their parent agency, the Defense Intelligence Agency, and wasn't incorporated in the report presented to Biden. -WSJ

Specifically, who decided to exclude input from the Defense Department and the FBI—the only agency to conclude with "moderate confidence" that a lab leak was the likely origin—from the August 2021 briefing to President Biden and the subsequent official federal conclusion that Covid most likely originated naturally?

David Asher, a senior fellow at the Hudson Institute and former head of State Department investigations into Covid origins, joined Vince Coglianese, host of WMAL's "The Vince Coglianese Show," on Friday evening to discuss the cover-up of Covid's origins during the Biden administration.

#4  "We have a Deep State that is so out of control..." Asher emphasized.

Yep, we can all probably agree on that.

#3  How will we be able to tell if it's the truth? I'm sure any actual incriminating records have been lost to accidents and computer glitches, and homework-eating dogs.

#2  We better learn the truth about COVID, J6 and about Epstein within the next month or so. We didn’t vote for more BS.

#1  The US funded 'off-shore' chemical and biological research theory has no basis in fact. I'm sticking with the original Chinese 'wet market' theory as promulgated by leading agencies of our government.
