Devin Nunes Goes Full Psycho On Fox And Claims The US Funded COVID 19 Creation

https://www.politicususa.com/2021/05/16/devin-nunes-coronavirus-lab.html

"SNIP....

Rep. Devin Nunes (R-CA) slipped further into the conspiracy abyss by claiming that the government funded the creation of COVID 19 in a Chinese lab.

.....

Nunes said on Fox’s Sunday Morning Futures:

You played the comment of Senator Cotton from a year ago- here we are and we don’t have answers. If you look at the evidence it’s pretty clear that there wasn’t some guy in wet market that ate a bat. It likely didn’t come from there. There’s zero evidence of that but there’s building circumstantial evidence that, indeed, this did come from a lab and money flowed from the U.S. Government through nonprofits that was actually supporting this type of research that was going on in China. And, look, why is this important?


.....SNIP"

Of course they need a conspiracy that makes big government deadly. Of course.

Trump gutted the CDC, fired overseas researchers, caused the US to leave the WHO, and ignored warning signs that a pandemic was coming. If anything this is mostly on Trump and the conservatives.
