Germans throw Pompeo under the bus ... German spy agency doubts US ‘China lab’ coronavirus accusations, report says

[Bleipriester]

Phrump lied. You can make that claim even without context and it is still true.

 

[rightwinger]

Typical of Trumpian politics

Claim you have information that you never actually produce.

"An intelligence report prepared for German Defense Minister Annegret Kramp-Karrenbauer concluded that the U.S. accusations were a deliberate attempt to divert public attention away from President Donald Trump’s “own failures”."

Pompeo is an obese liar and has been publicly humiliated by US allies.

Pompeo professed that there was “a significant amount of evidence”. However, Pompeo has provided no evidence and has damaged the USA's reputation further as the Germans publicly called Pompeo's claims a political diversion.

The USA's reputation and authority has been badly tarnished by Dopey Donald Trump as the Germans are prepared to publicly squeeze Uncle Sam's testicles.

A German intelligence report casts doubts on U.S. allegations that COVID-19 originated in a Chinese laboratory and says the accusations are an attempt to divert attention from U.S. failure to rein in the disease, Der Spiegel magazine reported on Friday.

U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said on Sunday there was “a significant amount of evidence” that the coronavirus had emerged from a Chinese laboratory, but did not dispute U.S. intelligence agencies’ conclusion that it was not man-made.

Spiegel said Germany’s BND spy agency had asked members of the U.S.-led “Five Eyes” intelligence alliance for evidence to support the accusation. None of the alliance’s members, the United States, Britain, Canada, Australia and New Zealand, wanted to support Pompeo’s claim, it said.

An intelligence report prepared for German Defense Minister Annegret Kramp-Karrenbauer concluded that the U.S. accusations were a deliberate attempt to divert public attention away from President Donald Trump’s “own failures”. ...

America has had problems with Germany's truthfulness in the past as well. Back in the day, libs loved Hitler and Honecker, and believed everything they said too

The situation is now reversed. Germany has problems with USA truthfulness and Hitler and Honecker are role models for MAGAnuts.

Pompeo is a corrupt and "dirty" political hack who has been given a prestigious and important government position. He is currently shaming America.

Actually that's a possibility according to a Chinese report.

But never forget to demonstrate your TDS when it is possible. US has done far better than Germany so the sensible thing for them to do is to shut up. Perhaps their officials are correct that it is a good thing that Germans get replaced by 3rd world Middle East Muslims.

Nope. All you do is post lies. Must be Donnies twin brother. Our Intel, Executive branch agencies, and Senate oversight committees have concluded that COVID-19 was not created in a lab.
Keep on fucking lying.

Why does it matter so much to anti trumpets that the chinese disease be natural instead of man made?

china is guilty either way

Pompeo changes tune on Chinese lab's role in virus outbreak, as intel officials cast doubt

abcnews.go.com

Did Pompeo ever really believe the lab hoax? I don't know. Maybe, maybe not.

Does science support the theory? Absolutely not.

No, the coronavirus wasn’t made in a lab. A genetic analysis shows it’s from nature

Scientists took conspiracy theories seriously and analyzed the coronavirus to reveal its natural origins.

www.sciencenews.org

Why did members of the admin latch on to it? "accusations were a deliberate attempt to divert public attention away from President Donald Trump’s “own failures”."

Key point. What is the value of putting unsubstantiated conspiracy theories in to widespread circulation among the public?

The value is...........Trumpleheads will continue to believe in them even after they are debunked.

In fact, much of the Trumplehead narrative is built on such debunked lies.

Everything from Obama being a Kenyan Muslim, to Hillary selling uranium to the Russians, to the idea the constitutional process of impeachment is a coup, to Mike Flynn being innocent of the crime he confessed to committing.

When Kellyanne Conway said there are "alternative facts" this sort of thing is what she was referring to. Chuck Todd, who was interviewing Conway at the time, had a spot on reply.

Todd responded: "Alternative facts aren't facts, they are falsehoods."

And there you have it.

 

[berg80]

Why does it matter so much to anti trumpets that the chinese disease be natural instead of man made?

Pardon us for thinking facts matter. The fact that it's natural blows up the conspiracy theory the Trump admin has been pushing and Trumpleheads believe in. It tells us the Trump admin has been lying. I realize that doesn't matter to you, but it does to me.

 

[Mac-7]

Why does it matter so much to anti trumpets that the chinese disease be natural instead of man made?

Pardon us for thinking facts matter.

Why does that unknown fact matter so much?

Either way it was intentionally spread around the world by china

Nice rewriting of history. There was enormous evidence of both the airliner being shot down, and Assad gassing the Kurds.

But I have to question why a guy who claims to be an American is supporting the lies and propaganda put out by Vladimire Putin, and accusing an American President of lying about malevolent foreign enemies of the USA.

It look like they spread it on purpose, even if they didn't create it in a lab. After all, they closed travel from Wuhan to other parts of Red China, but encouraged travel by Corona victims from Wuhan to other parts of the world.

First, its not a fact either way

we still dont know the origins of the chinese disease

but we do know china isolated Hubei province and the city of wuhan from the rest of china while allowing international travel from wuhan

that makes it a deliberate attempt to infect the rest of the world

[Olde Europe]

Pompeo is a corrupt and "dirty" political hack who has been given a prestigious and important government position. He is currently shaming America.

That may well all be correct, Camp. However, my point was, whoever enters the Trump administration will be degraded to become a lick-spittle member of the Trump campaign, or be gone soon. Since these functions are inevitably at odds, the resulting utterances and policies are catastrophic, at the very least not in the interest of citizens.

Not that I have any sympathies for Pence, Barr, or Pompeo, but how anyone can watch these boot-lickers without an intense admixture of embarrassment, pity, and disgust escapes me entirely. Still, it's best to bear in mind they are working for the Committee to Reelect Trump, not for the American people.

The real question here is, who leaked that confidential German spy agency paper, and why? What's the intent? Merely to embarrass Pompeo isn't sufficient grounds for that. Now, it may well have been the Germans, but they are risking to incur severe repercussions in terms of reduced intelligence cooperation, while getting little out of the exercise. That leaves "Five Eyes" trying to reign in Pompeo while everyone would assume the Germans leaked the paper. Impossible to know, but...

 

[Camp]

The Dutch who lost the bulk of victims blame Russia and called for an international tribunal of trial over shooting down M-17. Russia has refused cooperation or to answer for displays of evidence.
