As the media begins to speculate about the origins of the coronavirus outbreak, we analyze and compare contrasting views expressed by U.S. Intelligence and the scientific community. 

This week, along with our weekly election update and the ongoing "virtual campaign 2020", we analyze the latest news about possible connections between two men charged with killing a Georgia man during an attempted "citizens arrest," and whether the Federal Government will seek to label it a hate crime. Then we turn our attention to the ongoing debate between the media, the scientific community, and U.S. intelligence agencies about the origins of the coronavirus. Is there a "middle theory" for these opposing views that can help to reconcile the confusion, without resorting to conspiracy theories?
