Of course, OTOH, what were “Mayor” Pete’s qualifications to be SECDOT. Or, for that matter, same question for Sec. of Energy Granholm?

I looked at her LinkedIn page and her own site KB. All they say is degrees from Pitt and Penn State.

This is another fine mess you got us into Joey. Hope that port commish got her shite in one sock. But you know, between Buttjiggle and the resident HR exspurt somethin’ is gonna happen bigtime.

This will be interesting.

That’s a “padded” resume if I ever saw one. All of those “accomplishments” are total fluff. I’ve seen resumes of retail store managers that had better credentials.

[Similar to the presidency and the congress?]


You think bureaucrats put Letitia James up to Trump’s prosecution? Or led Merrick Garland to go after him? You think Federal lifers got Pelosi to impeach Trump? Life isn’t a Saturday morning cartoon.

Wasn’t the permanent bureaucracy turfed Nixon, tried to turf Reagan (Iran-Contra) and is now working on putting Trump in prison. Bureaucrats of all persuasions exist in government. Many are bored stiff, think they could do better if only given the chance. They will work with fellow partisans if they feel the risk-reward ratio is favorable.

In the private sector, plenty of wealthy patrons willing to subsidize fellow travelers on both sides of the aisle. That’s what think tanks are for. In government, there’s the featherbedding from do-nothing political appointments.

Being a token pays!!

It is. I’ve posted it here numerous times hoping eventually most will read it.

Many people don’t understand complexity theory and cascading failures.

If you’re bored, here’s a Michael Crichton talk on environment and systems management. I post this every once in a while too.

Thanks very much. Crichton was a brilliant man.

His talk on the environment read by Charlton Heston was amazing.

I assume that she, fellow Commissionwrs, and Governor will take personal responsibility for their omissions?

The ship had left port. The NTSB will determine if the pilot is at fault or not. I doubt any policy changes she implemented were having an effect yet.

Ms. Karenthia A. Barber is widely recognized as a top consultant, strategist, and speaker with extensive experience in business, education, and human resources.

Huh ... I see nothing in there that would indicate competence to manage the operations of a major commercial seaport.

She got that position because of her black skin and her XX chromosomes.
