For years, American taxpayer dollars funded a dangerous program that shipped deadly viruses to China. USAID sent nearly 11,000 virus samples to the Wuhan lab with no formal agreements or safety checks. These viruses came from bats, rodents, and humans across Asia. Our own government put the world at risk by giving China tools that could be turned into biological weapons.
The PREDICT program collected viruses worldwide under the guise of pandemic prevention. But when funding dried up, officials dumped thousands of samples in Wuhan. They chose a lab known for sloppy safety standards and military ties. No one ensured these deadly materials stayed secure or wouldn’t be weaponized against America.
China’s Wuhan lab hid its secret military projects while taking our viruses. Internal documents prove this facility worked with China’s army on classified research. Yet U.S. agencies still sent them our most dangerous biological samples. This recklessness endangered every American citizen.
Officials ignored glaring security risks to keep cozy relations with China. Records show warnings were swept aside to push the project forward. Bureaucrats cared more about their pet programs than protecting our nation from foreign threats. Their negligence could have caused the COVID pandemic.
The timing stinks. The U.S. canceled the PREDICT program just before COVID exploded in Wuhan. Our government stopped watching for pandemics right when one started in the same lab we supplied. Coincidence? Hardworking Americans aren’t buying it.
This scandal shows why we must stop funding China. Our tax dollars paid for equipment in that Wuhan lab. Our scientists trained their researchers. We handed over biological treasures while China plotted against us. It’s like giving bullets to an enemy aiming at your head.
China’s communist regime lied about everything. They hid their military work at the Wuhan lab while taking our viruses. They covered up COVID’s origins and blocked investigations. Now we learn our own leaders helped them. This betrayal cuts deep.
Conservatives demand full accountability. Everyone involved in shipping viruses to China must answer for this disaster. We need investigations with teeth—no more government cover-ups. America must put its citizens first, not foreign adversaries. Never again should our tax dollars endanger our people.
