WASHINGTON (AP) — The CIA now believes the virus responsible for the COVID-19 pandemic most likely originated from a laboratory, according to an assessment released Saturday that points the finger at China

So what?
This comes about two years after the DOE had a classified report stating that they had a "low confidence" belief that it was a lab leak, according to CNN. But it could still be Bat Soup or undercooked Pangolin Patties.
So the FBI and now the CIA are leaning toward a lab leak. The timing is bit interesting.
The 8.04 pm poster is totally correct. It has no meaning and is utterly irrelevant...so what. That is the kind of masterful insight we all need.
I am just amazed sometimes what people will post. I never really believed
"to stupid to know you are stupid" but the internet sure proved that point is correct.
Dear 8.04pm, perhaps there is some hope, I am not sure, but before you post again..."so what" to this or anything you read, try and think for some time, just think, imagine some possibilities, some possible out comes, consider it like a story. Try that for week or two and if that does not work, that just try not to post anything again.
8:04 -- This means Fauci was negligent in approving funding for the projects in Wuhan on gain of function for coronavirus. Evidently, the lab had projects to take viruses that were harmless to humans and transform them into pathogens capable of creating a pandemic. It is good to recognize that this was probably the origin of the pandemic, because it will lessen the likelihood of it happening again in the future.
Fauci also received a pardon from Biden of course, so he will now be free to testify without taking the fifth. The pardon explicitly goes back to 2014 when he was put in charge of approving this type of dangerous research.
"Fauci also received a pardon from Biden of course, so he will now be free to testify without taking the fifth. The pardon explicitly goes back to 2014 when he was put in charge of approving this type of dangerous research."
I am not buying your Fox news conspiracies, that Fauci made this thing. He said under oath that they did fund gain of function. The pardon is because of crazies like you.
7:49 -- It's sort of Orwellian to argue about the exact wording, whether it was gain of function or not, or an "enhanced potential pandemic pathogen". As you know these terms have been constantly redefined anyways, just as Orwell would have predicted. And of course, the Chinese may have taken it upon themselves to exceed what was authorized in the grant proposals, perhaps they believed it was a safe line of research since we signed off on it.
Unfortunately it is an issue that it is so easy to get high-profile papers and thus a lot of grant funding, by creating deadly pathogens which is so very easy with modern technology.
11:28 -- I believe the FBI was always advocating a lab leak theory, while the CIA was agnostic, not expressing a belief one way or the other, previous to this. There was a story a while back that the CIA had pressured some of its analysts to reach that conclusion, which I think they denied:

Some people where trying to get Fauci to give a talk at Los Alamos.
The "so what" is that the "experts" have lost more credibility. That stain doesn't wash off.
The "so what" is that the "experts" have lost more credibility.
The only people that lost more credibility are the uneducated Fox viewers who fall for lies and conspiracy theories. I think I will stick to the experts.
9:27pm are you saying that 3 federal agencies are endorsing a conspiracy theory? Sounds like a conspiracy theory.
9:27 -- I agree with you of course, that RFK Jr sounds nutty. But we know there actually was a "conspiracy" i.e. a "scientific collaboration" to modify coronaviruses at the Wuhan lab. A quick google search will turn up, that even Fauci does not view this as a so-called conspiracy theory, that is he does not rule out the possibility it came from the lab.
