Intelligence report warned of coronavirus crisis as early as November: Sources - "Analysts concluded it could be a cataclysmic event," a source says. [More]They're just following a time-honored tradition.
In fairness, it's tough to separate the Monday Morning "Gotcha!" on the part of an incentivized DSM on this to clear a path for the Democrats in November from the way bureaucratic priorities have been assigned and escalated. I'm not saying that can't be audited for change, I'm just questioning who could have foreseen then what is known now, especially since so many still seem to be getting so much wrong.

In a March 16 Ammoland post, David Codrea imagined the food supply dwindling during this pandemic before telling his readers the government is “utterly incapable of protecting them.” [More]Yeah. You got proof that it is, share it, or is this yet one more example of the type of competence required to qualify as a Brockian lickspittle?
Data Dump
This is the administrative record for our bump stock case it is over 5 thousand pages. It has everything you could possibly need to know about them. Please take a look. [More]That Facebook post links to a big-@$$ zip file that'll take a while to download.
