I have worked in the
government on and off for 40 years. During that time I became quite
familiar with requisitions, bidding, awarding contracts etc. It is a
time- consuming process with bean-counters and pencil-necked bureaucrats every
step of the way. The simplest request takes months, not days or hours.
In less than 8 hours of the
shutdown, miraculously, professionally printed 3x4 foot signs appeared all over
the country in the tens of thousands saying,“This [park, facility, etc. with
custom logos] closed due to government shutdown."
There has not been a
government shutdown in 17 years. These signs were designed,
specifications were determined, signs were then requisitioned, bids were posted
and vetted, government contracts were awarded. The materials were then
ordered and the signs manufactured then distributed U.S. Mails or freight
companies.
This shutdown was
orchestrated and planned well in advance - at least 6-8 month ago.
Millions of tax dollars were spent in this process. Does a paper
trail a mile long lead directly to the White House?
