Faces of the liberal commentariat from @chrislhayes to @yashar to @CharlesMBlow spread a conspiracy theory about #COVID escaping from a Chinese lab.
The story was a complete hoax leaked by Trump& #39;s State Dept to neocon @joshrogin.

Here& #39;s a dead giveaway that Washington Post resident neocon @joshrogin was pushing a Cold War hoax:
He cited a "research scientist" with no scientific credentials, omitting his background as a regime change activist funded by the US govt& #39;s National Endowment for Democracy.

WaPo neocon water carrier @joshrogin based his innuendo about the Wuhan Intitute of Virology on a US embassy cable apparently leaked to him. But the actual content of the cable - which he refused to publish in full - undermined the conspiracy theory he was advancing.
WaPo& #39;s State Department leak receptacle @joshrogin claimed it was an "unusual step" for US officials to visit the Wuhan lab.
He doesn& #39;t know dozens of official & scientific Western delegations have visited the lab – itself a product of Chinese & French gov& #39;t collaboration?
