Two California docs dared cross the hallowed political divide of rope-selling capitalists at Google’s YouTube and give a reasoned criticism of California’s C19 lockdown diktat. It made it on to YouTube, and then was promptly taken down by its corporatist toadies.

The chi coms are always looking to cheat the system –
Without naming China, the Pentagon’s acquisitions chief warned Thursday of foreign adversaries using shell companies to buy into struggling small defense firms during the coronavirus pandemic.
“We see a lot of shell companies coming in where the beneficial owner ends up being one of our adversaries,” Ellen Lord, the undersecretary of Defense for Acquisition and Sustainment, said in a Pentagon teleconference. “I’m particularly concerned about that.”
Some of the targeted firms manufacture critical components for the Air Force and Navy, but face financial stress during the COVID-19 crisis that makes them susceptible to unscrupulous foreign investors seeking access to company secrets, Lord said.
The major problems with so-called “adversary capital” are in “some of the smaller manufacturers who, maybe from a dollar volume don’t do huge numbers, but they are providing critical components across aircraft and naval sort of applications,” Lord said.
“That’s where my biggest concern is: sort of the weakest link” in the defense industrial base, Lord said.

Bait and switch by creepy grampa joe today –
In a statement and an interview Friday morning Biden denied the episode entirely, and said any record of the complaint, if it existed, would be in the National Archives.
“The short answer is no — we don’t have those. Those records are with the Congress,” John Valceanu, director of communications for the archives, told Yahoo News.
The archives later put out a statement saying in its entirety: “Any records of Senate personnel complaints from 1993 would have remained under the control of the Senate. Accordingly inquiries related to these records should be directed to the Senate.” The office of the secretary of the Senate did not respond to a request for comment.

What drives the Addicted to Outraged Blue Slim crazy is that Nunes, against all roadblocks, odds, and obstacles Shiffilis put in his way, NUNES’s House Intel Committee Minority Report was 100% accurate and laid all out there factually, while the Dem’s report has been proven beyond any reasonable doubt to be chalk full of bold face lies, fantasies, and musings of demented minds.

Daily quotes and two memes.
Insight: “The highest manifestation of life consists in this: that a being governs its own actions. A thing which is always subject to the direction of another is somewhat of a dead thing.” —Saint Thomas Aquinas (1225-1274)
For the record: “The FBI framed Flynn for a perfectly legitimate conversation with the Russian ambassador. That fed into the false narrative that ‘Russia stole the election.’ When Trump rightly fired Comey, that led to the appointment of Special Counsel Robert Mueller and a two-year inquisition that produced nothing. But the left bitterly clung to its false narrative of foreign influence and used a leaked phone call with Ukraine’s president to launch another investigation, which culminated in this year’s impeachment trial. While the media and the left are obsessed with Trump and Russia, we should be far more concerned about the meddling of the Deep State. We must not forget about the rampant abuse of the FISA court to illegally spy on American citizens.” —Gary Bauer
Upright: “There is so much to unpack with the new info on Gen. Flynn. The most upsetting is how calculated it was. Letting Gen. Flynn off is not enough. People need to pay for this and the FBI needs to answer to how the public can have confidence that it will never happen again. Shameful.” —Nikki Haley
Observations: “As for liberal commentators/legal scholars saying all this is ‘routine,’ well, let’s sure as hell hope not. The FBI exists to investigate cries — not create them.” —Kimberley Strassel
Hardly “moderate”: “I view myself as a transition candidate. … My job is … to bring the Mayor Petes of the world into this administration … and even if they don’t come in, their ideas come into this administration.” —Joe Biden
Non compos mentis: “This is what unfettered capitalism is all about. Trump demands that low-income workers in meatpacking plants either go back to work and get sick, or lose their unemployment checks and go hungry. The struggle for justice continues.” —Bernie Sanders
Braying jenny: “I’m satisfied with how he has responded.” —Nancy Pelosi on Joe Biden, who had at that time yet to respond to allegations that he sexually assaulted Tara Reade
Braying jackass: “[Trump is] also pushing U.S. intelligence to find evidence for this theory that the virus was accidentally released from a lab in Wuhan. That’s his new angle to feed the wingnuts — to treat this virus like it was a conspiracy of some kind. … Tomorrow, he’ll blame the Spanish flu on Antonio Banderas.” —Jimmy Kimmel
And last… “I’ve said since the Kavanaugh saga that the #MeToo movement lost its way when it went from ‘listen to women’ to ‘believe women.’ That’s not advocacy; that’s injustice. Now it’s worse, as it’s gone from ‘believe women’ to ‘believe Democrats.’” —Allie Beth Stuckey
