Just like the Russia investigation, Trump wants Intel agencies to look at everything.

Not! We know he doesn't trust the Intel agencies, especially the CIA and the FBI. Except when they can offer political cover for him.

The White House has ordered US spy agencies to investigate whether China and the World Health Organization initially covered up what they knew about the nascent coronavirus pandemic, according to a new report.

A specific “tasking” seeking information about the emerging outbreak was sent last week to the National Security Agency and the Defense Intelligence Agency, an official directly familiar with the matter told NBC News.

The CIA received similar instructions, current and former US officials told the network, which reported that the agencies were ordered to comb through a variety of data, including satellite photos and communication intercepts in the effort.

And he ignored the warnings because they weren't in crayon.

He can fuck right off.

collusion/conspiracy during the 2016 election? I specifically remember one intel boss saying that
"vote numbers were changed".
