    The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

        From the Freebeacon article:

        The records reveal that KORE is 14 percent co-owned by Do-Fluoride New Materials (DFD), a Chinese battery manufacturer led by Chinese Communist Party official Li Shijiang. One of KORE’s directors is Li Shijiang’s daughter, Li Lingyun, who also serves as vice chair of DFD and as vice president of China’s state-supervised Patent Protection Association.

        That’s it? One Chinese company with a decidedly minority stake, and no reporting on what position that “Li Shijiang” occupies in the CCP?

          No, this is it:

          The Department of Energy confirmed to the Free Beacon that DFD will help KORE build the Arizona facility by providing intellectual property, research and development, and engineering capabilities.

            So DFD (the Chinese company) will provide “intellectual property, research and development, and engineering capabilities” to KORE (an American company). Is that really something patriotic Americans want to complain about?

            We get intellectual priorities, R&D, and engineering capabilities, and we want to complain about getting the good stuff?

                If not for industrial espionage and reverse engineering, the Chinese wouldn't be a lot better technologically speaking, than the NORKs.

                  OK, explain to me what is to "worry" about this.
                  It's not like the Huawei situation where we get opaque boxes of Chinese tech to plop into our communications networks and we may not know exactly what's in those boxes.
                  With this KORE situation, we get "intellectual property, R&D, and engineering capabilities" -- not opaque boxes -- to build our boxes with our people overlooking production. What is it that patriotic Americans should worry about in a situation like this?

                    Chinese IP in our boxes. Not opaque boxes, transparent boxes with Chinese IP.

                    What could possibly go wrong?

                        Exactly. When dealing with Chyna always look for the ulterior motive.

                          Yeah, that’s what I hope you can tell me — what do you think could possibly go wrong?
