Rogue Bureaucrats at Homeland Security Leak ‘Incomplete’ Report Critical of Trump Agenda to [AP]
Breitbart ^ | Michael Patrick Leahy

Posted on 02/26/2017 9:40:14 AM PST by RoosterRedux

Rogue bureaucrats at the Department of Homeland Security have leaked an “incomplete” report critical of President Trump’s executive order that temporarily blocked the issuance of visas to seven Middle Eastern countries that previous administrations had declared “sponsors of state terrorism” or countries of concern.

Based on that leaked document, the Associated Press published a story on Friday with the headline “AP Exclusive: DHS report disputes threat from banned nations.”

Last week, Breitbart News reported that David Grannis, Principal Deputy Undersecretary for Intelligence and Analysis in the Office of Intelligence and Analysis at the Department of Homeland Security, is a holdover Obama bureaucrat who President Trump could remove from his position immediately:

A lifelong Democrat, “[p]rior to joining DHS, Mr. Grannis served as the Staff Director of the U.S. Senate Select Committee on Intelligence (SSCI) from 2009 through 2014 and as the Minority Staff Director for 2015.

It’s disgusting how many America-hating traitors the Kenyan planted in the U.S. Government. It’s going to take forever to fumigate that place to flush out all of his ‘RATS.

Note that Homeland Security has not confirmed that David Grannis is the guilty party here.

Why does this surprise anyone? They will continue to do it until they are stopped. It is up to President Trump to stop them. The facts of life are that if President Trump does not get rid of them, eventually they will get rid of him. If it is a crime to “leak” said information, arrest them and try them. if the organization is too corrupt for him to control, let him call on his supporters to restore law and order. I am sure enough of them would respond to get the job done. Athens, Tennessee comes to mind. It was done once, if necessary, it can be done again. The media will bitch and moan but the hell with them.

Trump needs to call Serve Pro for this job. Like it never even happened.

The fact that there are so many holdover political appointees still on the job is something of a mystery. They all serve at the pleasure of the President and could be removed immediately.

“It’s going to take forever to fumigate that place to flush out all of his ‘RATS.’

And thanks the the Senate RATs, there’s a delay in getting started with the process. I just hope that the Trump people build iron-clad cases on each and every one of them so that when they are RIFed, they don’t have any way of returning.

What are you some kind of a nut?
You actually expect them to admit it?

To be an Obama mole rat, lying and stonewalling are the first requirements...

Read Hillary's handbook

Damn it, how many of these “it’s time to get rid of these holdover traitors” moments are we going to have before it starts happening. So this story drops to AP days before the new EO. When is Trump’s team going to go after these bastards?

It's hard to clean house until the Secretaries are comfirmed. One can't help but suspect that one reason for stalling the confirmations is so the traitors can do as much damage as possible before they're removed.

That's my crazy conspiracy theory, and I'm sticking with it!

Why, yes, I am a nut...and proud of it.;-)

That said, I was paraphrasing a statement from the article that I couldn't fit into the excerpt.

It can be done sooner than forever. Fire em all! Then hire all new personnel. Been done before can be done again. Think Air Traffic Controllers.

That was only possible because they went on strike, and it was illegal for them to go on strike.
