Correlation or Causation? | Econbrowser

We all know that correlation doesn’t essentially imply causation. However generally you gotta surprise, particularly as Mr. Trump’s administration is busily dismantling the CIA. First, GW Bush ignore the PDB of August 8, 2001, on “Bin Laden determined to strike in US”. Then Trump 1.0 eliminates the NSC directorate on pandemic preparedness earlier than the Covid-19 pandemic (and apparently excluding Peter Navarro(!) ignores warnings about Covid).

pdb 6aug2001 page2

The PDF of the whole memo (redacted after all), delivered 36 days earlier than 9/11, is right here.

Now, Mr. Trump’s administration goes full throttle to eradicate (as soon as once more) early warning methods towards threats to the USA. What’s coming subsequent?
