U.S. lawmakers are using personal protective equipment that comes from China. Republican Congressman Michael Waltz tweeted about it Tuesday and argued for manufacturing in the U.S.

Taxpayer funding going to China for PPE is one problem. The other is that China s track record on producing effective PPE is abysmal. From last year:
A number of European governments have rejected Chinese-made equipment designed to combat the coronavirus outbreak.
Thousands of testing kits and medical masks are below standard or defective, according to authorities in Spain, Turkey and the Netherlands.
Until about 1 p.m. on Jan. 6, Florida was poised to become the center of the MAGA universe, where GOP operatives would map out the party s future and raise millions of dollars to make it happen.
And nowhere, perhaps, were the plans of state Republicans more upended than in Palm Beach County, home to the president and his highest-profile businesses.

Our U.S. Rep. Pete Stauber, R-Minn., was correct, of course, that President Donald Trump was “within his right” to pursue legal challenges to the election outcome, as the congressman said in the News Tribune last week.
But Stauber was wrong to betray the wishes of tens of thousands of his constituents who voted overwhelmingly for Joe Biden for president, many of whom also voted for him, by refusing to acknowledge the outcome of the election even after Attorney General William Barr, a fellow Republican, verified there was no evidence of fraud that would change the result. Stauber’s refusal to acknowledge reality dragged on even weeks after the ballot count was completed and certified.
