taxpayer funded medical research that, according to The New York Times now and everybody else, appears to have led to the coronavirus pandemic and then turning around and like literally in the same breath talking about how outrageous it is that Elon Musk would be auditing the agencies or that the Trump administration would be investigating whether the medical research is being well spent.

In fact, Zeynep Tufekci criticized Elon just last month for how dare he be involved in this audit and there must be something nefarious.

Yeah, I mean, first I should say, I don't know that I'm comfortable with this idea that you would revoke pardons. I just think that that opens up a whole Pandora's box that I don't think we want to do. And I appreciate the desire people have to get some revenge on Fauci.

And whatever it takes to do that, I think is important. And so I don't know what's possible legally, but I mean, we still don't have all the documents.

Later, we actually had another source that came out and said that the FBI knew since at least March of 2020 that COVID was the result of a lab leak, and that's because a Chinese national from Wuhan was working as a confidential human source for the FBI. And they told their handler at the FBI's Chinese intelligence squad, which means that probably the whole squad of 25 people knew.
