Talking Points Memo ^

In a conference call with reporters Wednesday evening, Donald Trump spokesman Jason Miller said that the President-elect's transition team will make an announcement Thursday about the first wave of "landing teams" that will interact with federal agencies.

Miller told reporters that the first of four "waves" of landing teams will be announced on Thursday morning and will focus on national security, liaising with the State Department, the Justice Department, the Defense Department, and the National Security Council.

The following three waves will address economic agencies, domestic policy, and independent agencies, Miller said.

"Miller told reporters that the first of four "waves" of landing teams will be announced on Thursday morning"

Media will report it as an invasion.

“Landing teams”; sounds like Gen. MacArthur landing at Inchon.

Awesome! Has this ever been done before? I don’t recall ever hearing about this approach. The media will have to learn to spell “liaise.”

“It’s an invasion of Wash DC.”

Yes, because the “swamp” has many “drains!” Or perhaps there are many “small swamps” that are “interconnected!”

I don’t recall ever hearing about this approach.

It sure beats the "Czar" approach in use the last 2 cycles.

Shredders are working overtime

I'm telling ya - Trump and his team are always thinking ten steps ahead and allow the MSM to destroy themselves knowing full well how they will position this, in unison.

[the State Department, the Justice Department, the Defense Department, and the National Security Council.]

Sounds like 5 STAR GENERALS are directing this operation.

It’s starting to look like to me Trump had this all planned out many years ago.

It's common practice. The Obama administration has the teams in place to work with Trump's teams. It's been delayed a little while Trump's people filed the required paperwork but it sounds like they're ready to move forward now.
