Biden on China: "They're not competition for us"

Per Axios' Joe Uchill: While Biden may be right that resource management could cap China's potential, that hasn't stopped the country from stealing billions of dollars in intellectual property through cyber and other means, providing stiff competition in tech fields — in part, due to stolen intellectual property — and investing threatening amounts in emerging fields like artificial intelligence and quantum computing. In telecom equipment, China has 2 of the top 5 companies in the world, with Huawei being No. 1.

Axios' National Political Reporter Jonathan Swan weighed in as well saying Biden’s is not a view shared by leaders of either party in Washington, or by national security leaders. One of the rare things Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) and President Trump agree on is that China is a rising, increasingly urgent threat to the U.S.

I gotta respectively disagree with Joe on this. He needs to walk this back. The sooner the better.

Hirono just smacked Barr real good!

Leahy and Feinstein are getting old.

Leahy should be doing a much better job imo.

Ready to go!

Steve Cohen

Phil Mudd on Cuomo said Barr leaked Mueller's letter.

He wanted to get it out there before he went in front of Congress because he knew it was coming out anyway.

Makes sense
