FBI Director Christopher Wray tells Fox’s @BretBaier...
The origins of the pandemic are most likely a potential lab incident in Wuhan. Let me step back for a second. The FBI has folks — agents, professionals, analysts, virologists, microbiologists, etc. — who focus specifically on the dangers of biological threats, which include things like novel viruses like Covid. And the concerns that they’re in the wrong hands — some bad guys, a hostile nation-state a terrorist or criminal — the threats that those could pose.
So here you're talking about a potential leak from a Chinese government-controlled lab that killed millions of Americans and that's precisely what that capability was designed for. I should add that our work related to this continues. And there are not a whole lot of details I can share that aren’t classified. I will just make the observation that the Chinese government, it seems to me, has been doing its best to try to thwart and obfuscate the work that we’re doing.
President Xi, expand the nuclear arsenal to MAD levels :yes-honey-left:
don't worry they have enough to turn every one of our biggest cities into plasma vapor. and after our countervalue strike i assume russia won't let a good exchange go to waste and will (and should) finish us off with a full countervalue of their own
I trust China not to do a first strike. I do not trust the United States (or Russia, which is why the escalation in Europe is bonkers).
Given the state of the US military, I question how many ICBMs won't just blow up on the launch pad.
These weapons systems were shoddy when they were built, decades ago. And the modern nuclear readiness core has only gotten worse over time.
That's the same thing the libs say about Russia. It's not worth gambling on it.
Given the number of weapons we have and the number you need to functionally end life on earth, I'm more than confident either country could do it.
They're shoddy jobs, regardless.
