If you were writing this one off as another ‘Oh well, Chinese…’
You might want to pay a bit more attention…
Prestige BioTech, a Nevada company fronting for parties in China, was caught operating an “unlicensed laboratory” in Reedley, California in March. State and Fresno County officers raided the facility, and the FBI and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention have since been participating in the investigation.
The illegal operation housed white lab mice—773 live and more than 175 dead—that were genetically engineered to carry disease. Authorities also found medical waste and chemical, viral, and biological agents. There were on site at least 20 potentially infectious pathogens including those causing coronavirus, HIV, hepatitis, and herpes.
The lab was supposed to be producing COVID-19 and pregnancy tests, but the facility contained items inconsistent with that explanation. The seizures at the lab strongly suggest China’s regime is preparing to spread diseases in America, undoubtedly in the months before a war.

The Chinese have played the long game for for generations, and are in a negative population growth scenario right now. They know they have the best chance in generations to take control of Taiwan, the second island chain, and other claims as long as the US isn’t standing in their way.
Take that for what it is worth…
With their bought and paid for stooge in the White House, the ChiComs know that despite the saber rattling, China Joe won’t oppose an invasion with anything more lethal than words. Having depleted our materiel resources and poured our monetary resources down the rathole on an endless war in Ukraine, we’ll be lucky to respond with a couple of DDGs if at all. If I were the Taiwanese I would have developed nuclear weapons during the Obama administration. Otherwise look to Hong Kong for an example. Am I bitter, you’re damn right I’m bitter.
The US military expenditure in Ukraine is roughly 3% of the US military budget.
Less than 1% of its tanks, 0% of aircraft..
Exactly where do you get the idea that the US is “depleted”?
The best way to convince the Chinese that the US will fight, might just be to fight.
The four biggest threats in the world today, are Russia, China, Iran and North Korea. They are all closely linked in their military technology and doctrine. Watching Russia lose in Ukraine might just be the best clue they will ever get, that their way of doing war does not get them what they want.
They are stripping weapons from active duty US military groups to send over to Ukraine.
Budget doesn’t matter a damn.
Expendable munitions, specialty weapons. Those things can take years to make and definitely take years to replace because Congress has to approve it, then the manufacturers have to win the contract to build it, and then it gets built.
What weapons? In what proportions?
What capability is being lost and to what extent?
No answer, eh?
The real situation is that the US Army has – in technical terms – a shitload of alternatives when it comes to killing enemy tanks, aircraft and weapons systems.
The claim that weapons supplied so-far constitute a significant depletion of overall US capability, is simply rubbish. The claim that funding figures based on the cost of replacements that were going to happen WHETHER THERE WAS A WAR OR NOT are the true cost of assisting Ukraine, is simply dishonest.
If you have a hate on for Biden, et al, then go right ahead. But find better reasons.
Taiwan is but one small goal. North America is the larger.
In addition to the discovered bio-weapons lab (and don’t kid yourself, it wouldn’t be hiding if it didn’t need to hide), there’s also secret Chinese police stations on USA and Canadian soil, compromised domestic politicians taking bribes and selling both our countries out, Governor Newsom in California making deals with China directly (he’s not permitted to do this but does it anyway, pretty much how California operates), etc…etc…
And our militaries can’t save us if they’re also weakened from within; and they are.
So yes. Our countries are also the target.
Thank God our FBI is aware of this!
I’m sure they’ll do something, someday.

The USA is in negative population growth, and has been for two decades. There are fewer Americans here now than there were back in 1970.
Invaders don’t count.
There are some people in corporate America that are traitors to the country they were born in. They would sell their mother if the price was right. As to the Chinese, they are following Sun Soo’s book,”The Art Of Warfare”. Send sickness and disease to weaken your enemy until they cannot defend themselves from any type of attack. Do all you can to infect them until they surrender without you having to fire a shot.
I’m not questioning the report, but there is something weird about this.
There is no need for the Chinese to do bioweapon research in unsecured facilities in the US. They have massive and completely secure labs in China, that cannot be raided by the FBI. Getting any “product” from there to the US is easy. Think of the drug trade. 😡
This isn’t high-level research, either. A few hundred mice is not a major program, and anything aimed at humans is probably going to use monkeys (or Uighers)
Something is screwy. Maybe a psyop? Maybe a Chinese company that decided that American rules don’t apply to them. Either way, some diplomatic arse-kicking is in order.
Further observations.
It is *normal* for laboratory mice to be “bioengineered”. Researchers want consistent results at known levels of sensitivity….. usually, higher sensitivity than normal mice. The things are specifically farmed for the purpose, not your common wild pests.
The pathogens actually listed are already known, common and we’ve dealt with them before. You would expect a laboratory that is working on tests for pathogens, to have those pathogens available. Get back to me when it is found that the pathogens themselves have been altered.
I’m not saying that the Chines are nice or innocent. The CCP is as nasty, arrogance and homicidal bunch of as you will find anywhere. I’m only saying that the information given so-far is not consistent with a clandestine project to wipe out the US population.
Who says it was research? It looks more to me like they’re building weapons to release and make people sick. If enough people get sick, guess what? Society collapses!
And the rest of your post is just…
Dude, Captain Obvious is standing over there waving his hands. Maybe you should pay attention?
John.
What do know about “building weapons” of this type?
How do you expect them to infect you with AIDS? Or Herpes?
What is your proposed vector?
What disease was found there that isn’t already “out”.
I’m still waiting for an explanation of how the Chinese are going to threaten the security of the US by training mice to run onto airbases and sodomise the pilots in order to infect them with AIDS and herpes.
You don’t have a weapon, without a delivery system.
All- Good points, and no, I don’t have any idea either…
If media reports are correct, a local official discovered this by knocking on the door and asking to have a look around. …
There’s probably a better explanation than “Super-Secret Bioweapon Lab thats-going-to-kill-us-all!”
Note… I’m not an expert on the subject, just someone who has read widely and has a tendency to ask whether (a) the evidence actually fits the claims, and (b) whetger there are better explanations.
Cheers all…..
Peter- Good point.
The CCP was undoubtedly running this lab with the full knowledge and complicitness of the Demonrats in power. And it begs the obvious question…how many more of these labs are they running. And yes….
the reason behind such labs is biological warfare. The CCP has been engaged in warfare against the USA for decades. Most people are too dense and distracted to grasp that reality.
It’s hard to win a war when the other side is the only one fighting it.
Gov Newsom allowed tax breaks for the place I heard from a report.
One might research a method in the PRC, then build a production lab in the US.
PRC might also think it has developed a method, but it is actually not any good.
The fundamental problem, is that 2020 had a lot of indicators for possible PRC biowarfare.
Many US government officials committed hard to a single model that excluded the possibility of biowarfare.
We don’t know what is going on, and the apparent lack of concern is concerning.
And, there can be situations like ‘clock boy ahmed’ where an adult (probably) primed a kid with parts intended to look like a bomb, that was probably intended to take a look at counter terror reactions or processes.
Some of that is fair commentary.
A fair response might be that if you think your enemy is testing your responses, you might want to leave him guessing as to the extent of those responses. The more information you give him, the better job he can do next time, if he decides to try again.
