          I'm so bummed that that was not the Russian flag. The outrage would have been awesome (and it would have finally made Trump happy).

                'The Fifth Risk' Paints A Portrait Of A Government Led By The Uninterested

                The thought that Donald Trump may have been totally unprepared to become president in November 2016 is one that's not new to those who have been following the day-to-day crises and dramas of the Trump White House closely.

                But a case for this argument is revealingly and startlingly made by Michael Lewis in his fascinating — and at times harrowing — new book The Fifth Risk.

                For instance, here's the scene Lewis describes in the early morning hours of Nov. 9, 2016, just after Pennsylvania was called, giving Trump enough electoral votes to win the election. (Chris Christie, who was the head of the Trump transition effort sat on a couch):

                "Mike Pence went to kiss his wife, Karen, and she turned away from him. 'You got what you wanted, Mike,' she said, 'now leave me alone.' She wouldn't so much as say hello to Trump. Trump himself just stared at the tube without saying anything, like a man with a pair of twos whose bluff has been called. His campaign hadn't even bothered to prepare an acceptance speech. It wasn't hard to see why Trump hadn't seen the point in preparing to take over the federal government: Why study for a test you'll never need to take?

                Christie would soon be fired from the transition effort by Trump adviser Steve Bannon; the work he and his team did, ceremoniously dumped into the garbage. Trump, Lewis writes, "was going to handle the transition more or less by himself."

                In a previous book, the bestselling Moneyball, Lewis tracked how smart baseball minds were changing the game with the use of data and analytics. In The Fifth Risk (the risk posed by incompetent government leaders), Lewis turns his attention to government data collection, including weather information and the census (which, as we rapidly approach the 2020 decennial census, also lacks a permanent director).

                Smart government scientists and techs have been mining this data to protect Americans. But Lewis reports, (as have others) a lot of government data is now disappearing from government websites, data on climate change at the EPA, on animal abuse at the Department of Agriculture, on violent crime at the Department of Justice. "Under each act of data suppression," Lewis writes, "usually lay a narrow commercial motive: a gun lobbyist, a coal company, a poultry company."

                Government may be too big and the bureaucracy too complex, but Lewis delves into its critical missions: to protect us from threats, including nuclear weapons proliferation, devastating tornadoes, and food-borne illnesses; and to efficiently distribute services and benefits to those needing a hand — whether from FEMA or food stamps.

                Some of the people that Trump has nominated for key government posts Lewis views as deeply troubling.

                Take Trump's choice to head NOAA, the Commerce Department agency that, among other reponsibilities, oversees the National Weather Service. For that critical position, Trump has chosen Barry Myers, who is CEO of the private forecasting service AccuWeather. As Lewis points out, AccuWeather repackages the weather service's own data, and sells it to private concerns for a profit. Myers at one time argued "the government should get out of the forecasting business." In other words, you want to know if its going to rain tomorrow? Or which way that hurricane is tracking? Well, buy our app, or subscribe to our forecasts. Myers has yet to be confirmed.
                Our Government is over. Done. Toast.

                      The comically oversized Nuclear countdown clock ticks closer to midnight.

                      The United States Permanent Representative to NATO, Amb. Kay Bailey Hutchison, warned Tuesday that the US could "take out" Russian missiles that are perceived to be in violation of the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces Treaty should Moscow continue to violate the agreement.
                      "We have been trying to send a message to Russia for several years that we know they are violating the treaty. We have shown Russia the evidence that we have, that they are violating the treaty," Hutchinson said
                      Asked what type of countermeasures the US and NATO would pursue in the face of the Russian violation, Hutchinson said "the countermeasures would be to take out the missiles that are in development by Russia in violation of the treaty."
                      Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said the Kremlin "prefers not to pay extra attention to statements by ambassadors while we have too many uncertainties with the messages on the higher level."
                      “Demolish the bridges behind you… then there is no choice but to build again.”

                        I don't believe that is true, particularly if we can significantly reduce the extent to which we voters are motivated by fear.
