He faced sharp backlash, along with other proponents of the theory, as well as the dismissal of his arguments by the Biden administration and mainstream media.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m not one for vindication, but this week it was good to see the Department of Energy finally conclude that the damn virus came from the lab in Wuhan,&#8221; he said, referencing the Department of Energy <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/top-senator-demands-answers-energy-dept-lab-leak-reversal-i-was-never-provided-this-report\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">joining the FBI<\/a> in admitting the lab leak theory was the likely cause of the virus spreading.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/media\/covid-lab-leak-theory-appears-vindicated-energy-department-report-censored-trashed\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>COVID LAB LEAK THEORY APPEARS VINDICATED AFTER ENERGY DEPARTMENT REPORT: \u2018THEY CENSORED US, TRASHED US\u2019<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I, frankly, nearly lost my job. I nearly lost my job as secretary of state for publicly ripping into China over what happened \u2014 this COVID virus that they foisted on the entire world, killing millions and affecting every life in this room for years and years,&#8221; Pompeo added.<\/p>\n<p>Pompeo touted his willingness not to toe the line of previous U.S. policy that he said was to avoid criticizing China. He pointed out he was right to suggest at the onset of the pandemic that the virus came from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/media\/credibility-crisis-new-york-times-helped-mislead-america-over-covid-lab-leak-theory\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">a Chinese lab<\/a> despite the criticism he received.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/government-disinformation-group-fire-punishing-outlets-reported-lab-leak-theory\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>GOVERNMENT-BACKED \u2018DISINFORMATION\u2019 GROUP UNDER FIRE FOR PUNISHING OUTLETS THAT REPORTED ON LAB LEAK THEORY<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Frankly, I was told to shut the heck up. But we should never shut the heck up when we&#8217;re defending the United States of America and its people.
