Well, there is official confirmation of what we already knew: China lied about the coronavirus, according to a report from Bloomberg News.
There’s no reason to believe the numbers coming out of China today either. Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me.
Communist officials in China have hidden the severity of the coronavirus outbreak within their borders, under-reporting both total cases and fatalities linked to the disease, the U.S. intelligence community reportedly confirmed in a classified report to the White House.
…
During the early stages of the epidemic in China that was later deemed a global pandemic by the World Health Organization (WHO), Beijing hid the extent of the viral outbreak, muzzling and jailing whistleblowers and critics in a move that allowed the disease to gain a firm foothold across the world.
Citing three officials familiar with the classified report issued by the American intelligence community, Bloomberg revealed on Wednesday:
The officials asked not to be identified because the report is secret and declined to detail its contents. But the thrust, they said, is that China’s public reporting on cases and deaths is intentionally incomplete. Two of the officials said the report concludes that China’s numbers are fake. The report was received by the White House last week, one of the officials said.
Dr. Deborah Birx has publicly called out China. Dr. Birx, who rocks amazing scarfs and delivers even bad news in such a calm and reassuring way, said,
“I think the medical community interpreted the Chinese data as that this was serious but smaller than anyone expected,” she declared. “Because I think probably we were missing a significant amount of the data.”
Dr. Birx conceded that when she saw early data from China reporting only 50,000 cases of the coronavirus among the 80 million in Hubei province, she felt that the threat was similar to that of SARS, which had 8,098 cases globally and 774 deaths.
So now that we have confirmed China’s duplicity, the question becomes, what are we going to do about it? While right now officials are rightly focused on combating the virus here at home, China must eventually pay for this. They must pay bigly.
According to The Daily Caller, Representative Adam Schiff (D-CA), wants to start a 9/11 style commission about the U.S. response to the coronavirus. Why? Because everything in the Democrats world is about getting the orange man. Orange man bad. If Schiff really needs to waste time doing yet another investigation, he should start commission into China’s wrongdoing. China bad.
When Schiff begins this phony investigation, he will first want to look in the mirror and remind himself what the House Democrats were doing in January as this crisis was beginning to unfold.

And this is what Democrats in Congress were doing
Remind me again who was “fiddling” while people died, @SpeakerPelosi?
