CLAY: I don’t think you’ve seen this. The House Intelligence Committee, the minority group of the House Intelligence Committee, has just released an additional findings, they believe, on covid. They’re releasing it because they believe it will help inform public debate about what happened with covid. They say, “It’s the opinion of the committee minority staff based on the preponderance of available info and all the attempts to hide and destroy evidence, that covid was accidentally released from the Wuhan Institute of Virology laboratory,” and this is kind of interesting, Buck, “sometime prior to September 12th of 2019.
“The virus may be natural in origin or the result of genetic manipulation,” they say, “and was likely collected in the caves in Hunan province sometime between 2022 and 2025. Its release was due to poor lab safety standards and practices exacerbated,” the House minority staff says, “by dangerous gain-of-function research being conducted at inadequate biosafety levels. The virus was then spread throughout central Wuhan, likely via the Wuhan metro.” That is really interesting, because we haven’t seen a story, Buck, about September of 2019 as being the release date.
BUCK: It’s going to seem more and more clear as evidence piles up that this was a lab leak. No matter what Facebook says, Clay. No matter what the social media giants try to censor.
CLAY: Yeah, I don’t think there’s any doubt.
