Among my jobs in the past was a stint as an emergency response planner for public health crises. You learn more than you want to know about terrorism in a job like that. 9-11 was about a year, give or take, in the past at this point, and it was still quasi-fresh on everyone’s minds.
One fine day, I was sent to another city to discuss methods for organizing mass dispensary clinics for emergency meds. I was the only man in the group, which spent most of the day chatting and picking out various points on a schematic of a nearby arena. There was a lot of chit-chat, some giggles, and “catching up” going on. About the only pertinent nugget was that one department had used free candy bars to entice people into a practice clinic.
As the day wore on, I began poking at the plans and asking, “Where are you storing the medication?” “Where would you post security?” “Have you established the best places for the queues?” “Are we handing out the patient education information with the meds or on the way out the door?” You know, silly throw-away questions like that.

Give it time.

As far back as 2009, I was doing interviews with people who pointed out that evidence that Middle Eastern terrorists and what appeared to be uniformed, well-armed militias were crossing the southern border with regularity and impunity. Yes, Joe Biden, Alejandro Mayorkas, and Merrick Garland wasted valuable time pretending there were no issues with our borders and pursuing Catholics, grandmothers, and pro-lifers to the ends of the earth. This, of course, while trying to convince us all that white supremacists and Mecha-Mega-Monster-MAGA Republicans were the greatest threats to Western civilization since the Black Plague. While all those things occurred, this threat has been around for many years. I remember sitting in a training and being told, “These people are extremely committed and very, very patient.” […]
