HUH????
Hmmmmm
“troubling” for who?
And the many last friday of the Trump admin news dumps were not “troubling” at all? These partisan propagandists are so transparent.
Strange how this is never a problem when Dems do this...
And what of the 12,455 Rat Party operatives employed in that agency? That sound you hear from the Amazon Compost is the sound of crickets.
BOL!
Acting defense secretary Christopher C. Miller ordered the director of the National Security Agency to install on Saturday a former GOP political operative as the NSA’s top lawyer, according to four individuals familiar with the matter.
The move is troubling, coming as it does four days before President Trump leaves office and the Biden administration takes over, former U.S. officials said. The move makes it more difficult for the Biden administration to immediately replace him, the former officials said.
“An 11th-hour move like this and a directive from the acting secretary of defense is overwhelmingly strong evidence of irregularity,” Hennessey said on Saturday. “Unless the acting secretary of defense can produce a compelling rationale for why this individual needed to be installed now, there should be a presumption that this is improper and the Biden team should remove this individual on Day 1.”
Or not.
“... move that raises concerns of improper politicization.”
Does the Post have clue?
It is troubling that the Washington Compost is owned by Jeff Bezos. It is troubling that there was massive election fraud. There's a lot in the world that is troubling. Leftist need to be scared.
Don’t know why this is important, but if the Dems are upset about it, it’s a good move.
“An 11th-hour move like this and a directive from the acting secretary of defense is overwhelmingly strong evidence of irregularity,”
Kind of like the IRREGULARITY of the election??
The evidence we already have will be added to in coming days and they want it investigated and not buried. They are rushing to vet the evidence from Italy. They want it investigated as it should be. We know that biden will try to bury this.
“The move makes it more difficult for the Biden administration to immediately replace him”
WaPo says that as though it is a bad thing.
I’m not going to click on that rag - can anyone post who is the GOP ‘operative’ being inserted?
And Biden will fire him immediately anyway. The supremes including Amy Conehead Barrett, Homo Roberts, and Kavenaugg the party boy will agree. This is child’s play for democrats.
From the article.
It “appears to be an attempt to improperly politicize an important career position,” wrote Susan Hennessey, a former lawyer in the NSA Office of General Counsel, on Lawfare, where she is the executive editor.”
Considering her position at Lawfare I would take whatever opinion she states with a salt lick let alone a grain.
Irregular?!?
Anything goes...... Time the RePukes take off the gloves.....
Maybe this indicates a forthcoming pardon for Snowden and Assange?
Clinton did this type of thing broadly on his way out the door, including having people from commissions that were direct appointments resign so they could be re-appointed to extended terms.
