Several weeks after the national election that appears to have ended with Joe Biden as the President-elect of the United States, CNN and Jake Tapper have managed to miraculously grow the spine – and the brain – they've been missing for the four years Donald Trump has sat in the Oval Office.
On Monday night, the “news” network declared, in an “exclusive” bombshell that should shock absolutely no one who hasn't been in a coma for the past nine months, that China had - hold onto your hats, here - hidden their true COVID case numbers from the world, and had dropped the ball in diagnosing new cases as the virus began spreading across the nation and, soon, the globe.
Speaking on the same network that spent the better part of 2020 slamming President Trump for blaming China for the coronavirus that’s reportedly killed more than 260,000 Americans and countless more worldwide while causing still untold amounts of economic damage and further harmed millions of people’s mental and physical health, a stone-faced Tapper looked into the camera and reported, as though it were breaking news, that China “underreported Covid-19 numbers, took weeks to diagnose new cases and didn’t disclose a December flu spike in Hubei.”
In a 7-minute report, Tapper detailed that a trove of leaked documents handed over to CNN by a Chinese government whistleblower proves the "missteps and chaos” within the Chinese government and its “misleading public data” in the early days of the pandemic - all things the Trump administration has been explaining for months, but that CNN and others n the liberal media continued to deny on the grounds of Trump's alleged "xenophobia" and "racism."

To remind, this is the same network that carried gallons of water for the Chinese Communist Party, using their network to help spread propaganda in defense of the Chinese government and their allegations that they were not responsible for the pandemic while bashing Trump for suggesting that China be held responsible for inflicting the virus upon the world through their irresponsibility and failure to cooperate and share factual data with other countries.
Nice of them to catch up.
