New: Trump won’t be hosting the G-7 summit this fall. That’s a good thing. washingtonpost.com/opinions/2020/… by me @PostOpinions
@PostOpinions Trump's Monday comments came as a complete surprise to most of his own staff, not to mention the governments of the other 10 countries involved. #G7 #G7Summit #CampDavid

washingtonpost.com/opinions/2020/…
France and Germany had already informed the White House they would not attend. Four other countries were invited: Australia, Brazil, India and South Korea. As of yesterday, those governments had no idea whether the event was on. washingtonpost.com/opinions/2020/…
"A G-7 summit now would be at best awkward and sparsely attended. At worst, it would be another embarrassment and highlight the weakness, not the strength, of the Western system."

This @NBCNews report on their field trip to Wuhan Institute of Virology has several errors, but the most glaring is that it misrepresents what U.S. officials wrote in diplomatic cables in 2018. I'll explain: nbcnews.com/news/world/ins…
@NBCNews The NBC story says that U.S. officials "said they observed" serious safety issues at the lab. That's just wrong. The officials reported the Wuhan Institute of Virology scientists TOLD THEM about the safety issues. washingtonpost.com/opinions/2020/… There's more...
@NBCNews Wang Yanyi, director of the WIV, told NBC reporters the U.S. officials visited in March 2018, two months after the first cable was written. The truth is they visited three times, both before and after the Jan. 2018 cable. Did U.S. officials make an entire visit? Not likely..

The State Dept released the 2018 Wuhan cables, but they did NOT release the FULL cables. They redacted IMPORTANT stuff. I have the full cables, so I know what they redacted. Would you like to know what they are trying to hide? foia.state.gov/Search/Results… THREAD
Redaction #1: "China must invest in the development of the technical and scientific expertise needed to safely and efficiently operate this facility if it wishes to become a fully-engaged and collaborative global partner in infectious disease research and control..." 1/3
2/3 "..In addition, government BSL research decision-making processes need to be more transparent so that international partners and Chinese scientists are confident that the government is providing informed oversight that meets the highest global standards.."

.@SenTomCotton on FOX: “My oped doesn’t meet the New York Times standards. It far exceeds their standards, which are normally below left wing sophomoric drivel.”
.@SenTomCotton playing off the Bari Weiss thesis on FOX: “In the face of the woke mob, of woke kids that are in their newsroom, they tucked tail and they ran. They confessed and said they were going to go into a re-education camp.”
.@SenTomCotton on NYT saying they rushed his oped and will change their processes and publish less pieces: “I will say to the world ‘You’re welcome’ for getting the New York Times to run less of the garbage that you normally see in their pages.”
