Conservative movement leaders, including our own Justin Danhof, have signed a letter urging the Trump administration to hold the Chinese government accountable for its complicity in the worldwide spread of the COVID-19 virus, a pandemic that has costs hundreds of thousands of lives and trillions of dollars of economic damage across the globe.

While the exact origin of the virus has not yet been conclusively established, there is good ground to suspect that it escaped from a Chinese virology lab, and there is no doubt at all that the Chinese government actively hampered its citizens from telling the world about the crisis in time for it to respond most effectively. This is, in the modern world, something rather worse than piracy – with deeper and harsher ramifications for the rest of us than any conceivable piracy could inflict. It renders China a pariah that can no longer be trusted as the manufactory of the world. It certainly makes her liable under any normal standard of law for the damages that have arisen from her deceit.

The letter urging the administration to hold China accountable appears in full on our website.  If you would like to add your voice to those of the letter’s signers, do go here to sign a petition to the White House.
