McMaster's NSC Coup Against Trump Purges Critics Of Islam and Obama
Frontpage Mag ^ | Aug. 4,2017 | Daniel Greenfield

Derek Harvey was a man who saw things coming. He had warned of Al Qaeda when most chose to ignore it. He had seen the Sunni insurgency rising when most chose to deny it.

The former Army colonel had made his reputation by learning the lay of the land. In Iraq that meant sleeping on mud floors and digging into documents to figure out where the threat was coming from.

It was hard to imagine anyone better qualified to serve as President Trump’s top Middle East adviser at the National Security Council than a man who had been on the ground in Iraq and who had seen it all.

Just like in Iraq, Harvey began digging at the NSC. He came up with a list of Obama holdovers who were leaking to the press. McMaster, the new head of the NSC, refused to fire any of them.

Why hire Susan Rice buddies and Trump haters ?

McMaster was a Obama General while he dismantled the military .
He loved the Soros plant .

Lets stop spinning for McMasters .

This is getting to the point of being ridiculous

If Trump can’t see the problem here the future is looking glum

As a supporter of Donald Trump, it is disturbing to see that he is contributing to the digging of his own grave. He brought in McMasters, a long time favorite of Obama, anti semite, pro Iranian deal, pro Islam etc. Trump continues to allow the Mueller witch hunt. He’s allowed Sessions to continue after the recusal, continue to allow big time Clinton supporter, McCabe to be second in command at the the FBI, he stood by while McMasters fired all the Trump people from the NSC. Donald Trump should ease up on the tweets and start to get a handle on his own swamp.

The article fails to mention that Harvey took his list directly to President Trump, thereby breaking the official chain of command.

McMaster is a deceptive guy capable of lots of harm, but the rationale for removing Harvey from his post is very clear.

It’s a damned shame what happened with Mike Flynn

Gen Flynn while in uniform stated he had been at war with radical Islam for ten years.
Isaw that on TV , and knew the Muslim sympathising President Obama would can Flynn and he did.

I am disappointed in hearing that Flynn took money from Ergodan who is anti American.
Somehow I hope Flynn's involvement with Ergodan is not s bad as it seems. - Tom

“Yes Trump is done for the 50 millions time. You are all sounding ridiculous.”

Grab yourself a bag of pop corn and watch. Mueller has 16 attorneys many of whom are fat cat donors to Hillary, each attorney has 5 FBI agents assigned, he has impaneled two grand juries, one in DC where nobody voted for Trump. Trump should have fired Mueller by now, the longer he waits the worse it gets.
