Who Knew? WuFlu Came From A Lab!
It's OK to call it the WuFlu or the China Flu or whatever. It's even OK to say that it came from a lab--cuz New York Magazine has confirmed it! Like, who would have ever figured that out, otherwise?

And who was the guy who funded that project over in Wuhan? Oh, yeah: St. Anthony Fauci, patron saint of Lockdowns. Progressivism is never having to say you're sorry. Or admitting that anyone else was right.
And by the way ...
