CORONAVIRUS Trump administration asks intelligence agencies to find out whether China, WHO hid info on coronavirus pandemic
NBC "News" ^ | 4.29.20 | Ken Dilanian, Courtney Kube and Carol E. Lee

Posted on 04/29/2020 4:59:51 PM PDT by spacejunkie2001

The White House has ordered intelligence agencies to comb through communications intercepts, human source reporting, satellite imagery and other data to establish whether China and the World Health Organization initially hid what they knew about the emerging coronavirus pandemic, current and former U.S. officials familiar with the matter told NBC News.

A specific "tasking" seeking information about the outbreak's early days was sent last week to the National Security Agency and the Defense Intelligence Agency, which includes the National Center for Medical Intelligence, an official directly familiar with the matter said. The CIA has received similar instructions, according to current and former officials familiar with the matter.

Asked about the inquiry Wednesday, President Donald Trump told reporters he was receiving information.

"It's coming in and I'm getting pieces already," he said. "And we're not happy about it, and we are by far the largest contributor to WHO, World Health. And they misled us...Right now, they're literally a pipe organ for China. That's the way I view it. So we're seeing and we're looking and we're watching."

This is a good integrity check on the intel agencies, if nothing else.

The tech started here. The tech was developed here. China doesn’t develop a damn thing on their own. It’s all given to them by us, sold to them by us, or stolen from us.

So, lets see where our intel agencies go with this.

They are already exposed in Dr. Judy Mikovits recent books.

Recent actions by them are just additional counts.

That’s pretty high level “tasking.”

I’m sure that most of us would volunteer for any tasking that we could do.

IF true, this would be a classified tasking order, naturally. If pressed, NBC would have to give up the sources as they are not assured confidentiality: certainly not for collection requirements coming from POTUS (Branzburg vs Hayes SCOTUS decision in 1972).

If Director Wray doesn't pursue this, then Gen Flynn, once exonerated, should take his place.

This also puts China on notice POTUS isn't playing the China, Russia, Crapistan joint venture of disinformation: they will be found out and there will be consequences for their BS.

Thank you for this post. I’m willing to ‘wait and see.’ As with many intel missions, we may never know, but for this, I’ll concur with the release of any findings, positive or negative.

Did a Chinese Foreign Minister Admit COVID-19 Came from a Lab?
PJ Media ^ | 04/29/2020 | Stacey Lennox

Posted reply to this article posted in Free Republic.com aggregate news source

Posted on 4/29/2020, 9:04:51 AM by SeekAndFind

Senator Tom Cotton was roundly ridiculed and branded a conspiracy theorist for saying that the Wuhan coronavirus may have come from a lab. There was an immediate false equivalence that he was accusing China of releasing an engineered bioweapon. That was never what he said, so we lived through weeks of China’s preferred “bat soup” story that insisted the virus came from a wet market.

HERE IS WHAT ELSE THEY DIDN’T DO/s
Every time an American looked at an item for where it was made in it came from China. Now China’s reliance making everything was being threatened by a change in leadership in America which was a major consumer of those products. When Americans hailed their leaders decision to make many of them in their country US. Their politburo worried.

Worse yet opponents to the Chinese regime in power had its citizens protesting its policies , as in Hong Kong, since that change in American leadership wave the American flag and present his name when doing so. All of which presented those in power the need to destroy that leader Donald Trump.

Would a runaway plague created by a nation which could threaten populations of an enemy cause them to react by demanding extreme restriction of movement by its population to prevent its spread ? Thus wind up fragmenting its economy and create defeat for that leader’s upcoming election.

The way this whole thing developed starting with the Italian fashion industry areas controlled by the Chinese commies hit by a runaway CCWV (Chinese Communist Wuhan Virus) breakout occurred in Wuhan the politburo closed off Wuhan but did not warn the Italian Socialist government or the Pope with whom the Chinese government had good relations with.

But certainly violated that understanding when the socialists should have been informed and allowed to deny those Chinese workers who replaced Italians in those factories taken over by the Chinese travel to and from China particularly for their New Year while this was occurring.

Where they seem to have done the same here with their takeover of Smithfield Pork processing Which Trump did with the exception of only allowing American citizens returning..

Sure looks suspicious particularly when crews of US naval vessels somehow wind up being infected by it while visiting certain Asian ports before that showed up in Italy.

But to stop the return of manufacturing of products back to the US that went to China. China backers here who’s family members are making millions from China through their political connections will be hit hard are also claiming that Trump’s alleged stock ownership in a quinine pills maker claim its a controlling interest in a product to be totally ineffective and when used requires a severe restriction of movement when near a possible carrier known as a shutdown because of its alleged rapid transmission spread by our media.
