Decent odds that they’re doing this specifically because NIAID is the institute that Anthony Fauci led.
Scoop: The NIH infectious-diseases institute (NIAID) will soon scrub “pandemic preparedness” and “biodefense” from its web pages, according to e-mails I obtained.
The directive is the start of a broader shake-up at NIAID, which has long been attacked by Republicans.

In case it isn't clear, they are not buying even 1/10th of this amount of square footage. They are laundering taxpayer money through warehouses into their own and their friends' pockets.

First strike in the Caribbean in a few months.
As usual, the “designated terrorist organizations” (note plural) supposedly operating the vessel are unidentified.
And no details on the victims smeared as “narco-terrorists.”
