    Oh wow! More news from BBQ

    Great, so the attacks by Kenyan mercenaries will force the gangs who will run terrified into the DR. Oh well, actions always have consequences.

    Oh wow! More news from BBQ

    Overkill is always better than underkill. I am anxious to see how the cheap Chinese drones work in Haiti. This is the stuff of B Hollywood movies. What was sold was ruggedized computer systems. Yes, the boards did have chips on them. It was a VERY profitable business.

    Because the Kenyan government wants 5 Million USD for 1,000 of them. Paid for hire mercenaries. Paid for mostly by an idiot in the USA using my tax dollars.

    Let's talk health insurance!

    Lindsey, keep in mind all Medicare Advantage plans are regional and there are various options at different cost levels and widely different benefits. Your cost will be higher since you did not take the option to enroll at 65. And of course the situation where you have to make it back to the...

    Let's talk health insurance!

    I am not a "worker" nor is my wife , but we have Senasa which is not Larimar. So dont forget the basic coverage for all Dominicans. And yes, you must be a citizen for that. That basic plan does cover some things our Humano plan does not cover. We have Plan Royal with Humano which will go up...

    Oh wow! More news from BBQ

    Which drones will the US be sending to support the 200 Haitian advanced team? A couple of Predators perhaps? When I was a sales engineer I sold processor cards for that program to a military contractor. https://www.operationmilitarykids.org/military-drones/

    Comedy used to be Funny

    I just watched a video on Netflix where Kevin Hart received a Mark Twain Comedy award at the Kennedy Center. I always thought Hart was as funny as watching paint dry. All the comics that were there to roast him were not the least bit funny. Even Seinfeld sucked But they did have language so...

    US continues to prepare for arrival of UN forces

    US forces stuck around for 2 years in the DR? Oh my. I hope the Kenyans are patient. If the Silk Road Initiative included Haiti, you might see more US interest.

    President Abinader: DR will not take part in military intervention in Haiti

    But we know that the 200, or 1,000 Kenyans or even a few more mercenaries eventually maybe promised by other nations who might show up will be there to help the local police enforce the rule of law. Not to engage with the gangs by directly going after them. The gangs of course are panic struck...

    President Abinader: DR will not take part in military intervention in Haiti

    I never had a tip jar. So that can't be it. What difference does serving in the military or not have to do with this? What differences does it make how the Kenyans are armed? Once again realism is confused for pessimism.

    Let us see how quickly the Kenyans are killed or leave Haiti and then we will see, won't we? I will stick to whatever I like.... Haiti won't be fixed.
