The White House has taken down some government websites providing COVID-19 information and replaced them with a new boldly styled page dedicated to the controversial theory that the pandemic was caused by the virus leaking from a Chinese government laboratory.
The reaction was the point though. Regardless of how covid started, it was happening and we were already dealing with the thick of it. The whole lab leak thing was a tool to get people riled up.
It was a distraction from the incompetence of Trump’s government, as is this shitty website, for their cult at least. For everyone else it just screams incompetence.
