interestingly the lab was in wuhan, china. none of this was disclosed on his federal grant application where he got u.s. taxpayer money. if it had been disclosed, he wouldn't have gotten the money. that's just wrong. the criminal complaint is based on his not telling the truth to the federal investigators, even though he was essentially defrauding harvard and defrauding the u.s. government funding sources. but that's not a crime. failing to disclose compensation from a foreign government is not currently a crime. we make it a crime. that's part of our legislation. the bill gives the justice department the ability to hold federal grant recipients accountable for hiding their financial ties to foreign governments by failing to disclose it on federal grant applications. transparency and honesty on grant applications is critical to the integrity of the u.s. research enterprise and to stopping this theft. so that's in our legislation. number two, despite more than 150 billion dollars in taxpayer funding going to these federal resea

for example, of china not cooperating, a doctor in wuhan, china, by the name of dr. li bin young, raised concerns about a growing pandemic in early january. dr. li tried to blow the whistle on the spread of one of the world's deadliest diseases. you know what he got for doing that? he was punished by the china communist government for -- quote, unquote -- spreading rumors. tragically, dr. li passed ad way in early february due to this virus, covid-19 -- passed away in early february due to this virus, covid-19. after the death of dr. li, he actually became a rallying point for chinese citizens who were very upset about their government's cover-up of this virus. only then, after he died and after the public outroar, did the chinese government apologize to his family and posthumously dropped dr. li's reprimand. throughout this time, the world health organization demonstrated no interest in the accurate and verifiable information on the true dangers of this virus. we now know that in late-december 2019, taiwanese officials had sounded the alarm about human-to-human tran

there are definitely reason yes that there are question marks about this institution in wuhan, china. there were reports that u.s. diplomats in china sounded the alarm twice about safety issues at the lab but when secretary pompeo repeated the lab was the origin of the virus he did not share any evidence. china has shared their own theory about the virus seeding the idea that it was the u.s. arm i that was to blame. that the u.s. army brought the virus to wuhan. an escalating war of words at a time they should be working together to end the pandemic. >> yeah. it will be interesting to get the official word from china to see where it goes from here. we want to take a short break. still to come, the global race for a vaccine is intensifying and the u.s. president said he is confident that there will be one by the end of the year but not everyone agrees. more on that when we come back. a lot of folks ask me why their dishwasher doesn't get everything clean. i tell them, it may be your detergent... that's why more dishwasher brands recommend cascade platinum... ...with the soaking, scrubb

china, with the current crisis beganot in wuhan, has not done s part either in seeking or providing thatvery crucial information that if it had come out sooner, but saved many lives. for example, china not cooperating, a doctor in wuhan, china by the name of doctor lee, raise concerns about a growing pandemic in early january. doctor lee tried to blow the whistle on the spread of one of the worlds deadliest diseases. you know i got for doing this. he was punished by the communist chinese government for spreading rumors. tragically, doctor lee passed away in early february due to this virus. covid-19. after the death of doctor lee, he actually became a rallying point for chinese citizens that work very upset by the governments cover-up. this virus. only then, after he died and after the public outub roar, did the chinese government apologize to his family and dropped doctor lee's reprimand. throughout this time, the world health organization demonstrated no interest in the accurate and verifiable information on the two dangers of this virus. i now know that a late decembe december 2019, t

about this, but there is a clear consensus now about one thing which is that this all started in wuhan, china, which is a huge city in china, hubei province, and that information about this horrible virus was concealed by the chinese communist party. systematically and very deliberately, they kept the rest of the world from knowing about it. by the way, they kept it from their own people, too. to the point made earlier, this is not about the chinese people. this is about the chinese government, meaning the chinese communist party deciding oh, gosh, we have got a problem here, let's not tell anybody. which goes against all the rules. if you're a country and you have a virus that is spreading, your responsibility, particularly as a member of the world health organization, is to tell your own people but also tell the rest of the world so that you can contain that virus. they concealed it deliberately. they must be held accountable for that. think of the devastation that they have caused, not just in our country but around the world. the number of people who have died, the people whose lives have

wuhan. scientists who were trying to investigate the origins of the virus initially had a lot of latitude, but i discovered a paper published by two scientists in southern china saying specifically that they believed based on the evidence they had seen that this was an accidental release from the wuhan institute of virology, that was published in china and immediately suppressed. it was taken out of circulation and the scientist who was the principal author gave a completely unclear response when asked about this by "the wall street journal" many weeks ago. the chinese had been trying to contain information. there's a famous case of the courageous dr. lee in wuhan who tried to spread word of how serious this was who was arrested along with other doctors that were trying to do their jobs, i mean, that's how hard the chinese were trying initially to keep the lid on it. they seem to have then come to more reasonable positions, but in the beginning, there's no question they were trying to suppress information, didn't know what was going on, were in their own version of panic and disorganization. >> thank you, david, for the time and insight. appreciate it. >>> al

the challenges that we face before covid-19 began to spread from wuhan, china, are still with us today alongside this awful disease. there are terrorist cells, hostile foreign service authorities and those and the world who would love nothing more than for us to apply socials to our presence the on the world stage as well. iran has not let popular unrest, a mismanaged economy or even covid-19 slow their aggressive meddling from yemen to the mediterranean. tehran and its proxies are still undermining the sovereignty of iraq and lebanon, aiding and abetting assad's mass murder in syria, sowing regional unrest, threatening israel, and targeting american troops in our interest. a regime that chooses to spend its scant resources on exporting violence or a so-called space program does not need relief from sanctions. we must maintain the measure of deterrence we restored with the decisive strike on soleimani. that starts today with upholding the president's rightful veto of a misguided war powers resolution. meanwhile an apparent repudiation of the trump administration's efforts to help end t

china has set out a goal of trying to, you know, look at how this has spread in wuhan. they are extremely sensitive to the political implications of this, because there is this very important political meeting that will take place at the end of next week in beijing, and china does not want any kind of whatsoever, to rain on that parade. they will do a lot of testing in wuhan and other places where there are outbreaks. whether it is 11 million are not or not is inconsequential, i think. they will do blanket testing to make sure there is no second or third wave of cases stemming from wuhan. host: bottom line, do the chinese people know that this originated from their country, from wuhan? guest: yes, they know that it began in wuhan. people, at the people in wuhan were also calling it "the wuhan virus." there was not much dispute about that. having said that, the chinese government has been propagating its own conspiracy theory , including this idea that american soldiers may have released the virus in october, during the international military games that were held in wuhan

think people are smart enough to realize this is just a matter of fact that the virus came from wuhan, chinas a simple fact. people should be able to think logically and understand that and additionally i do think we should be shaming china, the communist chinese government for the actions they have taken that led to the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people around the globe. i think it is 100% accurate to call it the chinese virus of the wuhan virus. >> folks across the ideological spectrum need to make clear talking about the communist chinese leadership is different from talking about the people of china who have suffered greatly as well. thank you both. all 50 states partially reopened but american still conflicted. the live report you need to hear is you decide whether you are ready to head out this memorial day weekend or not. that is next. l is by your side. we're working hard to answer your questions. like helping you understand what the recently passed economic package can mean for you. we're more than a financial company. we're a "together we can get through anything" company.

state is again backing away from a theer rehe's promoted that the coronavirus came from a lab in wuhan, china. mike pompeo says the u.s. is certain it originated in that city but they have not pinpointed that exact location. >> we know it began in wuhan but we don't know from where or from whom and those are important things. one of the key facts for scientists and epidemiologists to build out vaccines and therapeutics to identify how this was ultimately delivered to the world, you have to know where patient zero began and how patient zero became infected. >> just a few weeks ago pompeo insisted the virus came out of this lab and claimed there was enough evidence to prove it. >> mr. secretary, have you seen anything that gives you high confidence that it originated in that wuhan lab? >> martha, there's enormous evidence that that's where this began. we've said from the beginning that this was a virus that originated in wuhan, china. we took a loot of grief from that from the outside, but i think the whole world can see that right now. >>> you are watching "cnn newsroom." a new phase of openin

china has set out a goal of trying to look at how this has spread in wuhan. they are extremely sensitive to the political implications of this. there is this very important political meeting that will take place at the end of next week in beijing. china does not want any kind of outbreak to rain on that. . they will duo -- on that parade. they will do a lot of testing in wuhan and other places where there are outbreaks. whether it is 11 million are not as inconsequential i think. they will do blanket testing to make sure there is no second or third wave of cases stemming from wuhan. the: bottom line, do chinese people know that this originated from their country, from wuhan? guest: yes, they know it began in wuhan. people in wuhan were also calling at the wuhan virus. there was not much dispute about that. having said that, the chinese government has been propagating its own conspiracy theory including this idea that american soldiers may have released the virus in october during the international military games that were held in wuhan. there is no support wha

meanwhile, in wuhan, china, the epicenter of the virus, cbs's elizabeth palmer reports testing is underwayin. >> reporter: health workers in wuhan have begun testing its 11 million inhabitants, after a limited new outbreak last week. the goal is to find and isolate asymptomatic carriers before they can start a new wave. this massive testing program should also give the authorities in wuhan some idea of what proportion of their inhabitants have been exposed to the virus and therefore have some immunity, a figure that is a complete mystery in most parts of the world. what is not a mystery is the number of dead. it is still going up in brazil where medical staff, and gravediggers, know this is going to get a lot worse before it gets better.that gfor rutoo, in spite o lockdown, the infection is growing faster than anywhere else, except the united states. by contrast, much of europe is opening up. spain's death rate was under 100 for the first time today. and europeans seem willing to take the calculated risk that life can return to normal, or something very much like it. even the biggest churc
