Sept 19 story - reporting Ham’s replacement.

[LibertyRocks]

Thanks, I had missed that story. If a General was relieved of duty like was purported in the story I posted, could it be kept quiet long enough to wait until the first of the year to officially replace him? Could they be threatening Ham in some way to keep quiet or make him the “fall guy”? Just trying to get more of an understanding on how these things work, or could work if the military/administration wanted to keep this quiet as well.
