Clean House: Trump Fires 70 Obama Holdovers From National Security Council
February 11, 2020 16767
President Trump has reportedly cleaned house at the National Security Council firing 70 Obama-era holdovers, according to the Washington Examiner.
Officials confirmed that Trump and national security adviser Robert OBrien have cut 70 positions inherited from former President Barack Obama, who had fattened the staff to 200.
Many were loaners from other agencies and have been sent back. Others left government work.
Trump was notably impeached by the House and acquitted by the Senate after a NSC whistleblower on loan from the CIA lodged a complaint after approaching the office of House Intel Committee Chair Adam Schiff (D-CA), who guided him to a Democratic operative attorney (who loves going to Disneyland alone and once bragged about getting security clearances for guys with child porn issues).
We digress.
Last week, anti-Trump impeachment witness Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman and his twin brother Yevgeny were fired from the NSC and escorted out of the White House by security. While critics have called the move beyond the pale, President Trump noted Alexander Vindmans horrendous report given to him by his supervisor.

Great comic at source.

Because he had other problems, like Uber-neocon John Bolton and Mike Pompeo and then with the AG until he got Bill Barr in there.
I bet they had to fumigate the White House too after eight years of Obamas in there. Blacks have a different small than whites, and dogs can tell the difference. They needed to get that funky black smell out of there. ;)

It's the prerogative of the President, end of story.
Trump should have cleaned house, literally and figuratively, soon after taking office, but for whatever reason(s) didn't...better late than never.

Exactly. They were culled and jettisoned -- and NO ONE complained (except when Dubya unloaded a few US attys.)
But...but...but...When did "Executive Privilege" and "Serving at the pleasure of the President" suddenly become illegal?? Oh that's right -- when Trump incredibly and shockingly smoked a bunch of globalist GOP-patsies who were supposed to lose to the (D)onkies along with The Witch, the MSM, and S0r0s in 2016. Ooops.
When will somebody with even .001 testicle simply point this out on Tee-Bee or in the chambers of the Senate??

We all expected it...but...then again, when he didn't, for many of us, that validated a "Shadow Gummint" who actually created policy and agendas, and Presidency as just a symbolic position of power for the serious stuff.
After surviving the Coup, it appears that default subservient puppet-role for a President (especially since 2000 and Dubya) may be over.
I anticipate MANY heads to properly roll immediately after DT's re-election inaugural. He can't bust that move before then. IMO.

Yup.
Not to mention that horrendous cast of revolving backstabbers and "Resistance" insiders for the first two years.

He had to get the right Atty General in there first.
He started out with the Bulldog, Jeff Sessions and then went to Bill Barr. ;)

Remember when they burned Mt. Carmel in Waco and killed all those people when they injected CS gas into the complex?
Janet Reno said, "Give me a reason not to do this." :-/

In a world of "Opposites", yes.
Is our patience for justice tested? Of course. If you've noticed since 2016, we've had to expect the un-expected.
I believe what we've still seeing has been a cat & mouse game where "Resistance" players have taken the cheese and bait all along. ALL of the rest of us must also fall prey to mis-direction and deception. For any counter-psyop launched against the Swamp to work, it is necessary that everyone buy the notion that The Resistance and Coup plotters have avoided justice.
Yes We just watched Swampsters like McCabe recently (purposely) get cut loose (btw --on lesser changes), which gives the Swamp an even more false sense of security and belief that they've not only skated, but won. To most it does seems AG Barr has succumbed to the whims of the Deep State; Some believe Barr is Deep State. IS HE??
Barr does look wobbly. Feeble, Ineffectual. Not so interested in justice OR the fight. (Then again, wouldn't a trap look exactly that way?)
Could I be totally wrong? Sure.
Then again...I EXPECT THE UN-EXPECTED.
Could this "NOTHING-EVER-HAPPENING!" perception be causing even more deep Swamp-Critters into being more sloppy? Lured back into activating their "Resistance" mode? Compromising their own IDs and others, blowing cover even more deeply?
Think about it...
Is there a better way to de-infest a Swamp that's been deeply entrenched for 25 years of Bush-Klintoon-Bush-0bama NWO-ism? Let THEM de-infest themselves by carrying the Poison-Pill deep into their nest.
