China’s Desperate Counterattack Exposes Guilt

The People’s Government of Wuhan Municipality, Chinese Academy of Sciences, and Wuhan Institute of Virology filed a retaliatory lawsuit targeting Missouri’s COVID accountability efforts. Senator Eric Schmitt, who originally sued China as Missouri’s Attorney General in 2020, faces personal targeting alongside current officials including Attorney General Catherine Hanaway and Governor Mike Kehoe. The timing reveals China’s panic as Missouri advances asset seizure plans to collect its historic $24 billion judgment.

Missouri Officials Stand Firm Against CCP Intimidation

Schmitt dismissed China’s lawsuit as “legally meritless” and a “badge of honor,” emphasizing he won’t apologize for holding China accountable for over one million American COVID deaths. Attorney General Hanaway called the suit a transparent “stalling tactic” designed to obstruct Missouri’s asset collection efforts. The unified defiance demonstrates how Trump-era accountability continues under current leadership, refusing to bow to foreign pressure or intimidation tactics.

Watch:

Historic Judgment Threatens Chinese Assets Across America

Missouri’s March 2025 federal court victory awarded $24 billion in damages after China refused to defend allegations of virus concealment, PPE hoarding, and investigation obstruction. The default judgment created unprecedented leverage for seizing Chinese-owned farmland and financial holdings within Missouri borders. China’s countersuit demands public apologies on American and Chinese media while claiming threats to Chinese “sovereignty and security,” revealing desperation over potential asset losses.

Lawfare Strategy Backfires as Patriots Rally Support

China’s retaliatory lawsuit strengthens conservative arguments about foreign interference and validates concerns over Chinese land ownership in America. The suit’s filing in Wuhan, ground zero for the pandemic cover-up, underscores the brazen nature of China’s deflection strategy. Missouri’s enforcement creates a template for other states pursuing COVID accountability, potentially inspiring similar asset seizures nationwide while exposing China’s vulnerability to American legal consequences.

The unenforceable nature of China’s Wuhan court filing demonstrates the weakness of their position compared to Missouri’s legitimate federal judgment. This David-versus-Goliath battle showcases American resolve against communist aggression, with Missouri taxpayers positioned to benefit from the largest foreign accountability judgment in recent history.
