Acting DefSec Miller orders Pentagon-wide halt to cooperation with Biden transition team
NOQ Report ^ | December 18, 2020 | JD Rucker

Posted on 12/18/2020 5:59:20 PM PST by E. Pluribus Unum

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.

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.”

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.

There has also been talk over the last couple of days of something big coming from the White House…

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.

Why do these sites keep regurgitating the same fake stories. This was shown to be untrue earlier today. Seems these sites would check it out before running with something.

Yup! Been a prayin’ and ready for a fight if Biden isn’t kicked out on his aging keister!
However, it sounds like his dealings with the enemy have compromised his being included in ANYTHING at this point!
Joebama can’t be trusted.
Period.
Deep staters are being weeded out as we speak!
They will have plenty of time to think about it in Gitmo.

no it wasn’t. Grennell came out and said not true (although he didn’t say what part was untrue. But another article came out from The Hill that quoted, multiple times, the head of transition FOR BIDEN, who acknowledged being shut down by Miller and not knowing why.

If foreign enemies are about to carry out nuclear strikes, we probably don’t want Slow Joe knowing about planned defenses against those.

This is a wise move. Why should we give our national security secrets to China in the middle of a war.

I pray every night and every morning when I wake up, and if I am near my church I will stop by and pray. People need to wake up and wake up fast, what is going on today is exactly what went on in Germany in the 1930s only this time the threat is much much worse. This time the evil has permeated a super power.

Like the Nazis the left has this utopian ideal in its head, and like them anyone who disagrees must be destroyed and they are on the brink of absolute power. The courts have folded out of fear of a putsch and the left really now has no opposing political party, it’s only a matter of time before this horror moves to the next level.

I am asking all veterans retired and currently serving to uphold their oath of enlistment to support and defend the constitution which they swore to do BEFORE obeying the “President” which very well may end up being this illegally elected scumrat mofo and traitor Joe Biden

If it's any consolation, officers already take that oath you're describing; the "oath of office" that officers take is different than the "oath of enlistment" in that the President and superior officers are specifically omitted for the officers.

It was specifically designed that way to ensure that the military is not bound by the orders of a single individual; it's set up for adherence to the Constitution and the people.


I would like to think that this would serve as a wake-up call. (This country doesn't have a political problem, it has a moral problem.)
