Proved by his own words not “Fake News or DEM Hoax”
BREAKING NEWS ... !!!
As
far back as late November (ABC News):
U.S. intelligence officials were warning that
a contagion was sweeping through China’s Wuhan region, changing the patterns
of life and business and posing a threat to the population.
What we now know as the novel coronavirus
(COVID-19) and pandemic was in fact detailed in a November intelligence report
by the military's National Center for Medical Intelligence (NCMI), according to
two officials familiar with the document’s contents.
The report
was the result of analysis of wire and computer intercepts, coupled with
satellite images. It raised alarms because an out-of-control disease would pose
a serious threat to U.S. forces in Asia — forces that depend on the NCMI’s
work. The report paints a picture of an American government that could have ramped
up mitigation and containment efforts far earlier to prepare for a crisis
poised to come home.
A NCMI report
said: “Analysts concluded it could be a cataclysmic event. It was then briefed
multiple times to the DIA, the Pentagon’s Joint Staff, and the White House.”
The Pentagon
in turn issued a statement: “Denying the product and assessment even existed.”
From that
warning in November, the sources described repeated briefings through December
for policy-makers and decision-makers across the federal government as well as
the NSC at the White House.
All of that
culminated with a detailed explanation of the problem that appeared in the
President’s Daily Brief (PDB) of intelligence matters in early January.
FYI: For something
to have appeared in the PDB, it would have had to go through weeks of vetting
and analysis: “The timeline of the intel
side of this may be further back than we’re discussing. But this was definitely being briefed
beginning at the end of November as something the military needed to take a
posture on.”
My 2 cents: How many Trump hard-core loyalists and
sycophants will believe this story – any bets? Probably none is my hunch.
Thanks for stopping by.
