CrowdStrike is really just Dmitri Alperovitch

He's the founder of CrowdStrike, even though he is listed as the CTO not the CEO.

He hooked up with Kurtz, but Alperovitch is the brains behind the outfit.

Russian, grew up in the Soviet Union, fled in 1994

Now sits on the Atlantic Council think tank with the likes of Bezos & Co

Fake News: Acting DNI Shoots Down WaPo Report About Threatened Resignation over Trump-Zelensky Call
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi cited the stonewalling of the whistleblower complaint in her announcement of an official impeachment inquiry. Democrats acted as though this alleged process violation rose to the level of abuse of power, but the White House will soon release a redacted version of the whistleblower complaint. As with the Washington Post story, it seems this trumped-up secrecy scandal may turn out to be fake news.

Vice Admiral Maguire seems like a serious dude, doesn't strike me as being a hack.

He's like the only adult in the room. His testimony is like a civics seminar.

The Democrats are coming off the worst, they are just pandering shamelessly and farcically.

Maguire is brushing their shit aside with ease.

They're questioning the integrity of a decorated Navy SEAL live on tv, and that is backfiring as you might expect.

The Admiral presents as totally non partisan, simply defending separation of powers in face of an utterly unserious clown congress.

Not a Ringbearer, not an Annapolis grad, so I bet he's not a Dip Dunk neither, as Marcinko calls them.

Indeed. Seems like an operational SEAL.

His opening statement was outstanding, I felt like I should standing to attention while he was making it.

Good Stuff.
Some late night I'll go on a long rant about ring nockers, but that will require whiskey. :dance:

I’m on the road in MO now. Started in Lincoln, NE this morning, driving to Lafayette, IN. Got 1.5 L of JB in the back and a half-dozen shot glasses, one from every State along the way. Won’t be able to partake until 19:00 hours EST.

p.s. Maybe I’ll sneak a snort early?
