Late jumping on this, but not only was Esper replaced by a Trump loyalist, Christopher Miller, Miller was the head of the NCTC, the National COUNTER-TERRORISM Center. Very interesting. Additionally, Esper’s canning was followed by the departure of several of his deputies. Defense undersecretary for policy is going to Gen. Anthony Tata, who is based AF. Defense undersecretary for intelligence is going to Ezra-Cohen Watnick, one of Gen. Flynn’s handpicks. Esper’s chief of staff is going to Kash Patel, another young rockstar.
With all these MAGA appointments into the DoD swamp, it seems like things are finally about to get real, fast
Yep. I knew a whole slew of people were replaced but hadn't bothered doing the legwork to see who yet. Thanks! That's HUGE. I've heard Kash is a patriot. IMO this is all just a contingency plan in case the commies try something stupid.
Yes but it will be different this time with no re election to worry about and no Esper in the way. Commies going to prison.
Wrong. Commies get helicopter rides. I've been getting my license to fly for this reason. Pilots will be in high demand.
