The recent news of how the US Department of Energy has figured out that the SARS virus was developed from and escaped from a Chinese government “health” lab in Wuhan is bouncing back and forth.
The FBI claims that they told us that a year or more ago.

And the idea that somehow, there are sufficient Democrats who have not gone over to the Dark Side of wokeism and radical progressivism to be willing to side with the GOP in either house to make anything they blather on about veto-proof.
