Pandemic journal: Wuhan Lab Was Batty<\/strong><\/p>\n

Despite the insistence of Peter Daszak \u2014 a \u201clongtime partner of the Wuhan Institute of Virology and one of the most staunch and outspoken critics of the lab-leak theory\u201d \u2014 the lab \u201cdid indeed have live bats within its walls,\u201d reports National Review\u2019s Jim Geraghty<\/a>. Sky News<\/a> Australia found May 2017 footage showing caged bats and one \u201changing off the hat of\u201d a researcher \u201cwearing a mask and glasses but no other protective head covering.\u201d The lab even \u201cfiled patents for bat cages.\u201d Daszak, whose EcoHealth Alliance funneled government grants to the Wuhan lab, deleted tweets claiming it held no live bats but hasn\u2019t \u201cadmitted he was wrong.\u201d That lab \u201chad more samples of bat viruses within its walls than any other building on earth,\u201d yet Daszak and others claim the fact COVID originated in Wuhan \u201cis simply coincidental.\u201d<\/p>\n

Libertarian: Biden\u2019s Infrastructure Backfire<\/strong><\/p>\n

President Biden is focused on \u201call the money he plans to spend\u201d on \u00adinfrastructure, rather than on getting the biggest bang for the buck \u2014 which suggests he will be buying \u201ca lot less infrastructure\u201d than otherwise, argues Reason\u2019s Christian Britschgi<\/a>. The prez insists, for example, that jobs go to union workers, yet that could raise costs by as much as 22 percent. His team paused a Houston highway project on civil-rights grounds, possibly opening an \u201cavenue for activists to slow\u201d other projects. And the Bidenites are considering a rollback of Trump-era limits on environmental reviews. In the end, his team\u2019s commitment to \u201coutdated red tape\u201d will \u201cinevitably impede whatever it ends up trying to build.\u201d<\/p>\n

Border watch: Migrants\u2019 COVID Threat<\/strong><\/p>\n

President Biden should have at least \u201cwaited until the deadly COVID-19 pandemic was over before reversing Trump\u2019s border-security measures,\u201d but he has instead enabled migrants to bring \u201cthe virus \u2014 including potentially dangerous variants \u2014 into the interior of the US,\u201d laments Nolan Rappaport at The Hill<\/a>. Team Biden excepted unaccompanied alien children from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention\u2019s temporary order permitting \u201cthe rapid expulsion of aliens who would otherwise be held in crowded areas while being processed.\u201d While the coronavirus is \u201cstill killing more than 200 people a day in the US,\u201d Biden is admitting newcomers from low-vaccination countries without so much as a COVID test. The president vowed to \u201cfollow the science<\/a>\u201d in fighting the pandemic, and \u201cpoliticians should keep their campaign promises.\u201d<\/p>\n

From the left: Manchin\u2019s Favor to Dems<\/strong><\/p>\n

For all liberals\u2019 rage at Sen. Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.) \u201cfor opposing the For the People Act and for supporting the filibuster,\u201d he may \u201cbe doing these liberal Democrats a favor,\u201d contends John Judis at Talking Points Memo<\/a>. The voting bill is a highly controversial and thus an unpopular \u201cChristmas tree of progressive election measures\u201d that includes \u201cpublic funding of elections, .\u2009.\u2009. support for Congress being able to declare the District of Columbia a state and a panoply of regulations that would govern state elections \u2014 elections that are supposed to be the purview of states.\u201d Meanwhile, \u201cthe presence of the filibuster forces Democrats in the Senate and the Biden administration to focus their efforts on popular economic measures,\u201d since it makes it impossible to pass more culturally divisive ones that would harm the party\u2019s candidates in 2022.<\/p>\n

Conservative: Joe\u2019s Smart Strategic Reshoring<\/strong><\/p>\n

Global supply chains have benefited consumers in the form of cheaper prices \u2014 but they have also \u201ccreated new problems,\u201d observes John Steele Gordon at Spectator USA<\/a>. So kudos to Team Biden, which has \u201cproduced an important new report\u201d seeking to address one main downside: America\u2019s dependence on foreign powers for security-sensitive manufacturing needs. \u201cThe United States currently relies mostly on \u00adimports are of particular concern: semiconductors, high-capacity batteries, pharmaceuticals and their active ingredients and critical and strategic materials.\u201d As the early pandemic\u2019s mask shortage showed, \u201cgreat powers . . . need to be able to produce strategically important products within their own borders.\u201d By recognizing the problem, the Biden report is an important first step. <\/p>\n
