Biden Appoints US Maritime Administrator With Zero Shipping Experience During Worst Shipping Crisis In Decades. The FAA is headed by a pilot, NASA is headed by an astronaut, the US Marine Corps is headed by a Marine but for the fourth time in a row, and during the worst shipping crisis of the century, the US Department of Transportation, has appointed someone to the US Maritime Administration (MARAD) who is not a captain and has no commercial shipping experience. Yesterday afternoon, President Biden announced his intention to nominate Rear Admiral Ann Phillips, US Navy (Retired), as the next US Maritime Administrator, a position that has been vacant since Rear Admiral Mark Buzby stepped down following the insurrection at the U.S. Capitol in January. Phillips is a highly decorated Navy leader with a long list of accomplishments and is highly respected by everyone gCaptain has interviewed. She was head of the Navy’s Climate Change Task Force and is a highly sought after consultant on climate security issues. She holds an MBA. She was chairman of a local government Sea Level Rise Preparedness and Resilience project. She once captained a Navy warship. The appointment looks great on paper except for one kinda big problem. This is not a warship position. It’s a commercial shipping appointment and she has zero experience aboard any commercial ships. She does not even have experience leading navy military sealift ships. It’s par for the course with this administration. As Karol Markowicz noted yesterday, Pete Buttigieg “was always going to be a lightweight transportation chief. He got the job as a reward for dropping out of the presidential race and throwing his support to Joe Biden — and also because he said he likes trains, having gotten engaged at a train station. My 5-year-old likes trains, too. Yet just because he can say ‘Choo choo!’ with enthusiasm doesn’t mean he can oversee the country’s transportation system. When the country is having supply-chain problems, the transportation secretary’s skills and experience, let alone availability, become rather, uh, indispensable.” Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Gen. Mark Milley is far more obsessed with critical race theory than the debacle in Afghanistan. As Cheryl Chumley wrote at the beginning of the month in the Washington Times, “The new comptroller of the currency selected by President Joe Biden is fresh off the Marxist bus, having graduated from Moscow State University in 1989 and since, spoken in glowing terms about communism.” This is some crew that President Klain is assembling: ● Senate Confirms Radical Eco-Terrorist as Chief of the Bureau of Land Management. ● Kamala Harris doing damage control after encouraging student who accused Israel of genocide. ● Biden’s OMB Pick, Neera Tanden, Is a Conspiracy Theorist Who Pushed False and Disputed Election Information on Twitter. Tanden eventually withdrew her OMB nomination, but: Neera Tanden lands in the White House, after all. “The White House confirmed on Friday that Biden had appointed Tanden to be a senior adviser. She will start on Monday. The move came two months after the veteran Democratic policy adviser, known for her combative Twitter feed and in-your-face politics, withdrew her bid to become Biden’s budget director — Biden’s first, and, to this point, only failed nominee and one of his few political setbacks thus far.” https://gcaptain.com/biden-maritime-marad-admiral-phillips/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Precision Posted October 19, 2021 Share Posted October 19, 2021 From what I've seen there are 3 main components to the supply chain problems. The first has been the lack of supply due to countries shutting down. Honestly I don't think any administration would have been prepared for the breadth and depth of the problem. From raw materials all the way to completed product the "just in time" supply chain system has turned into "just too late" as everything is being delayed. The industry trend to carry as little inventory as possible has only further exacerbated the problem. The supply shortages cascade through the chain as each sub-assembly is delayed by multiple piece parts and raw materials delays. I am in charge of a product development effort and we are short PCB's, IC's, cables assemblies, motors, sheet metal, raw material for machined parts, plastic for our injection molds, even stuff like common hardware. We have components in transit from China to Long Beach and I fully expect that we will not see these until January. The second item that's an issue is the lack of transportation resources. Many older workers left the transportation industry when Covid hit making distribution of available product more difficult. This was an obvious issue months ago as the lack of truck drivers was common knowledge. We had difficulties both shipping and receiving product so anyone in the game knew that this was going on. I feel that the current administration does bear some of the responsibility for this as it is problem that was fixable months ago. The final component, demand, falls squarely on this administration. Really their lack of insight on this makes me wonder if anyone in the administration has even run a lemonade stand. Let's take a test, when you give people sitting around at home free money what are they going to do with it? A. Save it B. Give it to charity C. Put it into their retirement plan D. Pay off their debts E. Spend it on crap as fast as possible. Well, I think we know what they did (it wasn't give it to charity by the way) which is why there is a big spike in demand. Take out the unsustainable short term demand and the supply chain and transportation issues wouldn't be nearly as bad as they are today. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
