Is there a major bombshell about to drop the demonstrates a reason to not trust Joe Biden and his team? Does this have something to do with the massive hacks ongoing across the federal government right now? Or is it just an awkward holiday protocol? So many questions.
=====================================================================
Acting Defense Secretary Chris Miller has ordered a Pentagon-wide halt to cooperation with former Vice President Joe Biden’s transition team. This stunning news could mean many things and speculation is already running wild.
Axios reported this morning that the move caught the Biden team by surprise. Meanwhile, the Department of Defense is downplaying it as a “simple delay.” That makes very little sense considering they already had a later start than most transition teams. According to Axios:
A top Biden official was unaware of the directive. Administration officials left open the possibility cooperation would resume after a holiday pause. The officials were unsure what prompted Miller’s action, or whether President Trump approved.
Why it matters: Miller’s move, which stunned officials throughout the Pentagon, was the biggest eruption yet of animus and mistrust toward the Biden team from the top level of the Trump administration.
What happened: Meetings between President Trump’s team and the Biden team are going on throughout the government, after a delayed start as the administration dragged its feet on officially recognizing Biden as president-elect.
Then on Thursday night, Miller — who was appointed Nov. 9, when Trump fired Defense Secretary Mark Esper right after the election — ordered officials throughout the building to cancel scheduled transition meetings.
Pentagon official response: A senior Defense Department official sought to downplay the move, calling it “a simple delay of the last few scheduled meetings until after the new year.”
“We had fewer than two dozen remaining meetings on the schedule today and next week,” the official said, adding that “the DoD staff working the meetings were overwhelmed by the number of meetings.” “These same senior leaders needed to do their day jobs and were being consumed by transition activities. … With the holidays we are taking a knee for two weeks. We are still committed to a productive transition.”
This really could be absolutely nothing. It could be a logistics issue. If I had to speculate, I’d say it likely has to do with the major hacks associated with SolarWinds Orion that have affected large swaths of the government, including giving access to top secret information to whoever is behind it. The Russian government is the most likely culprit. CNBC reported that it’s much worse than we originally believed.
In other words, this could be very bad news. Then again, there’s also a chance it could be very good news for Team Trump. It’s conspicuous that it jibes with my theory that the White House and possibly the Texas Rangers have the SolarWinds Orion servers, whose Austin Office they raided earlier this week. If there’s something that ties the Biden team to Dominion Voting Systems and voter fraud, this move would be a natural next step.
This is probably no big deal. Or, it could be very worrisome if it’s connected to the massive government hack. And there’s a possibility it could mark the turning of the tide with voter fraud finally fully exposed. We’ll keep a close eye on this.
A “bombshell?!”
You know, if anything important really happens, I’ll miss it. We need a new code word for something that really matters.

That’s easy. Bombshell always means nothing-burger.
If you want to stay informed, look for the postings that don’t say BOOM or bombshell
Or maybe because, you know, the 2022 elections are just around the corner and we wouldn't want to put our thumb on the scale (so we'll stick our thumb somewhere else instead).
> Of course, it means another week of vanity posts calling for armed conflict...but whatever. <
You don’t understand sir. According to the article, this is a potential “bombshell”!
Side note: I’ve been keeping track. This is election bombshell number 837. And so far there have been 836 duds.
Sorry...get with the program...
It's the ChiComs.
Here now, no need for anyone to do anything dramatic. Let's all have a nice Christmas...
Maybe it’s because they’re all such Iranophiles and we’re about to attack their favorite tyrants?
I would not be surprised to find out this hack was done and info was collected to be released very soon about biden and family. And others involved with China. Election fraud and things that might be good for Trump. Am hoping so anyways.
me looking at my calendar think it’s too full...
1. polishing silverware
2. alphabetically arrange record album
3. visit in-laws
4. brief potential future president on all matters of national security.
I think I can cancel #4
“Needs to be confirmed from another source.”
