Image Credit: HECTOR RETAMAL / Contributor / Getty China is suing the state of Missouri and several U.S. government officials (in a Chinese court) for “belittling the social evaluation” of the Wuhan Lab, which is where Covid came from. The Chinese Communist Party alleged the defendants did this by suing China (in a Missouri court) for releasing Covid. China claimed Missouri’s lawsuit created an “economic and reputational threat” to the CCP to the tune of $50.5 billion in economic and reputational losses.
“The State of Missouri fabricates and disseminates disinformation by means of implementing such vexatious litigation, which have defamed Plaintiffs’ reputation, resulting in huge economic losses of the Plaintiffs, and deeply endangering sovereignty, security and development interests of China,” the Chinese court documents state.
The state Attorney General’s Office press release from Friday states:
Last week, the Missouri Attorney General’s Office received notice of suit, in the Intermediate People’s Court of Wuhan, declaring Missouri to be an economic and reputational threat to the People’s Republic of China. The suit is specified on behalf of The People’s Government of Wuhan Municipality, the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the Wuhan Institute of Virology.
China’s suit names as defendants:
- The State of Missouri, represented by Governor Mike Kehoe
- U.S. Senator Eric Schmitt
- The Missouri Attorney General, including former Attorney General Andrew Bailey, now Co-Deputy Director of the FBI
The complaint argues the defendants’ acts have had “negative effects on the soft power” of Wuhan and have “belittled the social evaluation” as well as adversely affected the “productivity and commercialization of scientific and technological achievements” of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and The Wuhan Institute of Virology.
China doesn’t just want $50.5 billion, it wants a public apology on U.S. media:
China is demanding the defendants “issue public apologies on New York Times, CNN, Wall Street Journal, Washington Post, YouTube and other American media or internet platforms, and People’s Daily, Xinhuanet and other Chinese media or internet platforms…” The suit demands joint compensation totaling $356.4 billion Chinese yuan, equivalent to $50.5 billion U.S. dollars, as well as any legal fees which occur and the right to claim further compensation.

Importantly, China’s lawsuit is a retaliation suit against Missouri for the state’s $24 billion judgment against China for unleashing and worsening the Covid pandemic.
The judgment, entered in March 2025, is the largest in Missouri history and one of the largest ever issued against a foreign sovereign. Federal law requires states to wait a “reasonable period of time” after a judgment is entered before initiating the service and enforcement process against a foreign government. With that waiting period now completed, Missouri can move forward with the next phase.
Today, the Attorney General’s Office mailed official judgment-service packets to the Clerk of Court in Cape Girardeau. As required by the Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act (FSIA), the clerk will forward those documents to the U.S. State Department for diplomatic service on:
- The People’s Republic of China
- The National Health Commission of China
- The Ministry of Emergency Management
- The Ministry of Civil Affairs
- The People’s Government of Hubei Province
- The People’s Government of Wuhan City
“This judgment belongs to the people of Missouri,” Attorney General Hanaway said. “They deserve accountability, they deserve answers, and they deserve recovery. My Office will not stop until this judgment is enforced.”
Hanaway fully intends to collect on the judgment too.

Missouri is not the only government body that has declared the Wuhan Lab to be the source of Covid.
In April President Donald Trump’s White House published a presentation documenting the Covid ‘lab leak’ incident which took place at the Wuhan Lab and led to the plandemic of 2020.
Notably, the White House’s publication came five years after Alex Jones exposed the Wuhan Lab as the source of the viral release.
China’s quest for $50.5 billion may be egged-on by the fact the nation is facing a serious economic downturn. The communist country has begun to experience a reduction in economic growth, even in their cooked numbers.
“China’s economic growth slowed to the weakest pace in a year in the third quarter as fragile domestic demand left it heavily reliant on the humming of its exporting factories, stoking concerns about deepening structural imbalances,” Reuters said on October 20. “While the 4.8% growth rate met expectations and kept China on track to reach its target of roughly 5% this year, the economy’s dependence on external demand at a time of mounting trade tensions with Washington raises questions over whether that pace can be sustained.”
Despite being on track to meet their so-called 5% growth rate this year, that 5% is likely fake to begin with, not dissimilar to China’s alleged “domination” in the fields of technology and science.
Currently China is experiencing a real estate bubble and is home to ghost cities which were built as part of grand financial scams. The parts of China which are inhabited are built poorly and are in a perpetual state of falling apart. Streets run rampant with petty property crime and mass homelessness. China is also seeing stagnation of growth in its second-largest export market, Europe. There is negative growth in China’s top export market, the U.S. There is also a falling and aging domestic population in China, similar to the West. Chinese workers are beginning to attack their own worksites and factories because they have not been paid due to the poor state of the economy.
