this is according to multiple officials involved with the covid origin s review that we have spoken with. this has been a team effort. to be clear, this does not mean they believe the virus was engineered in a lab or was intentionally released. but rather it could ve been studied in a lab and escaped accidently. though. this is a dramatic shift from a year ago when democrats publicly downplayed the so-called lab leak theory. but it is important to note that the view that the lab leak theory is deeply credible is what some senior national security officials view from an intelligence standpoint. most scientists who study coronaviruses and who have investigated the origins of the pandemic still say the evidence strongly supports a natural origin for the virus and that it s unlikely scientists were studying the virus in a lab and it leaked out. scientists who have found strong genetic evidence the virus came from animals say they want more access to what china knows about the pan
be close to death without it. our exclusive sitdown with one senator. a lot to get to this morning. we start with that explosive reporting on the nation s top military leader. head of the joint chiefs of staff, general mark mille sharing concerns about a potential nazi germany era-esque coup, general milley reportedly describing weeks after the election like a reichstag moment. milley looked at the pre s supporters and far-right extremists taking to washington on that million maga march, describing what he saw as brown shirts in the streets. phil rucker and carol leonig. mark murray, senior politics editor, courtney cube, and mark jacobs, nbc military analyst. mark, there are some experts in this book that we now can report that demonstrate how real milley s fears were, right? a description on the evening of that million maga march you referenced, he called mcmaster to ask if a coup was eminent asking bluntly, what the f am i dealing with? he then began to strategize how
it made him look worse. we ve gone over that. the permits for the unite the right march in charlottesville were gotten by an avowed white supremacist, okay? and it was a white supremacist march. so if you want to conflate and do all that craziness, know the president should have known his history. he should have known what had happened. the lawyers should have known that counterprotesters did not need a permit to protest against the people at the march. it was all smoke and mirrors. i couldn t believe it. well, they were doing it to show a demonstration of donald trump calling out violence, and that s how few examples they had that they had to use that one. and, again, that was a bad example because the longer the sound bite went on, the worse it made him look because he did not know his history about who exactly was at that march. if you saw the people with tiki torch es saying jews will not replace us, you will not replace us, who is fine with that? well, their ad y
