VODKAPUNDIT PRESENTS YOUR DAILY INSANITY WRAP: Choose the Form of Your Acne-Covered, Purple-Haired, Face-Pierced Destructor.

Insanity Wrap needs to know: When is a violent anarchist actually a conservative Republican?

Answer: When the Party requires him to be, Comrade.

Also 2 + 2 = 5. Or 3. Or even sometimes 4. Whatever the Party requires.

Before we get to the sordid details, a quick preview of today’s Wrap.

  • POTUS commands an army of racoons with his mind.
  • What do you get when you put Anton Chigurh in drag? The answer will shock you!
  • Cuomo and De Blasio force GOP-voting Jews into quarantine, and this map proves it.

And so much more at the link, you’d have to be crazy to miss it.

KRUISER’S MORNING BRIEF: Vote Trump or Have Your Freedom Die. “We are on the precipice as a nation right now. We’re faced with a choice between people who value life and liberty and people who want to take your guns, keep you from going to church, and criminalize speech.”

PRIVACY: AI cameras introduced in London to monitor social distancing and lockdown restrictions.

Vivacity Labs said they have more than 1,000 sensors installed across the UK, in cities including London, Manchester, Oxford, Cambridge and Nottingham.

Chief Operating Officer at Vivacity Peter Mildon told BBC Radio Kent on Wednesday that the data is potentially “useful for informing policy decisions” regarding lockdown measures.

He stressed that the cameras are not CCTV but that they operate as a data collating device rather than a camera that stores footage.

“They are not recording any footage, they are not streaming any footage and no one is actually watching it,” he said.

For now, anyway.

Besides, with facial recognition presumably baked in, the data is just as valuable even if no video is recorded.

COMMUNIST FRONT CORPORATION: UK Parliament cites ‘clear evidence’ Huawei colluded with Chinese state.

In Thursday’s report, the Defence Select Committee praised the government’s decision to exclude Huawei due to its links with the Chinese Communist Party, which it said were evidenced by its ownership model, the government subsidies it has received and its “apparent willingness” to support China’s intelligence agencies and China’s 2017 National Intelligence Law.

“Having a company so closely tied to a state and political organisation sometimes at odds with UK interests should be a point of concern and the decision to remove Huawei from our networks is further supported by these links,” it said.

Don’t trust China… you know the rest.

Insanity Wrap needs to know: Does Twitter attract angry, ignorant people or does it create them?

Answer: Seriously, we’d love to know.

Before we get to the sordid details, a quick preview of today’s Wrap.

  • BLM comes after the suburbs.
  • Democrats repel COVID-19, except when there’s a Republican around.
  • Can Biden save the world? (Spoiler: No.)

And so much more at the link, you’d have to be crazy to miss it.
