I don’t see how those articles are an example of what you’re stating. The 3rd article you posted specifically points out the Democrat’s reversal in their stance from a year ago. Now, if they pretended the democrats were always skeptical of the natural source of the virus, I would agree. Though, I still haven’t seen anything but circumstantial evidence to support the lab leak hypothesis. Not saying it isn’t possible, but just because China can’t be trusted with these sorts of things, does not mean they’re lying. Most experts still lean heavily on the side of the natural explanation.
