I probably shouldn’t start making fun of it until after landfall but they downgraded Henri to a tropical storm or maybe even down to a fairly hefty belch and it is moving the trees around and dropping a decent amount of rain.\u00a0 I’ve upgraded it to Superstorm status since I like things that are super.\u00a0\u00a0The worst of the trouble may come from downed power lines but so far it’s a relatively tame storm.<\/p>\n
I said the other day that it was too soon to declare the Afghanistan Withdrawal a full blown horror show that finishes Joe Biden’s credibility as POTUS.\u00a0 Well we’ve inched a little closer to that stage.\u00a0 The level of incompetence is pretty impressive both on the military side and the intelligence side.\u00a0 It looks like the Taliban is giving the Americans the chance to get out but the Biden administration appears extremely inept at marshalling its forces to follow through on a coherent plan.\u00a0 If this goes on much longer I wouldn’t be surprised if bad things start happening almost on their own.\u00a0 A power vacuum draws in secondary players who see an opportunity to grab some small prize.\u00a0 American hostages would seem to be the biggest opportunity.<\/p>\n
As for everything else, I’ll put up a few posts on stuff that I’ve been thinking about.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
