Transition dangers

2001 brought new insights to the dangers of terrorism. As a result it was realized there was a pattern from the past that terrorists take advantage of federal transitions due to elections. For that reason post 911 found it necessary to keep Homeland Security Cabinet Secretaries in plan for at least one year for continuity in intelligence gathering.

My concern for all of the USA and territories is that with Trump pushing his own people into office there is profound errors being made that opened  window for terrorists, including those from India. 

It is important states get their own security personnel in place and up and running to close gaps on potential terrorist attacks, both domestic and foreign. The January 6th insurrectionists are on the loose, expect problems domestically as well.

There is nothing to say if states want to regionalize intelligence gathering and share the cost. Mid Atlantic, New England, Southeast, etc.

Whenever I think about these issues, the Former Governor and Jersey Guy, Chris Christie comes to mind. I like him. I trust him.
