Very nice and a bit of a surprise to me. I hope they are correct.
But unless some form of full inspections or spraying N/S America wide for containers coming from overseas, we will probably have more of these.
With the direction/trend of the "US Gov." being run as a business for the past 40 years, I believe we could very well see these hornets arrive in other areas.
IIRC, there is a insect in the East that is killing millions of trees which arrived 10 or 20 years ago. I forgot the details but eradicating them is now impossible.
Is it really worse than the members of the https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bark_beetle subfamily? They are able to destroy whole forests if the trees are under stress (drought, pollution, acid rain) already. But they should be nothing new.

Businesses that do get $37 trillion in debt go bankrupt. That government lovers managed to make believe it's normal for governments to go ever more into debt to then tax everybody through the inflation "hidden" tax is one of the biggest travesty of our time.
