So apparently on June 19th there is going to be a "continuity of government" exercise where thousands of Washington bureaucrats go to dispersed underground cans buried in the Allegheny mountains and elsewhere.

Remember the last time there was a large scale exercise of this nature? That would be Granite Shadow, a biowar exercise. Coincidentally, during Granite Shadow, tularemia was detected in the air above an anti-war demonstration.

Before that, the last large exercise was Vigilant Guardian/Northern Vigilance, wherein Norad stood down. That happened to be the morning of 9/11.

Do I think the end of civilization is going to happen? No, because I think this crew wouldn't want to kill off their cattle. But how surprising would it be to anybody if something happened the day of that planned "exercise?" Support for the war is waning, and the GOP need to do something-- desperately-- because if they don't they're going to lose their positions and likely their freedom.
