What Is John Brennan So Worried About?
...This is the big question. In the CNN interview, Brennan was not artful enough to disguise what seems to be his major worry. Right after complaining that complacent observers are “missing what is a very, very worrisome development,” the ex-CIA chief added:“
And I think it’s quite apparent from reporting that Mark Esper has stood up to Donald Trump repeatedly. Who knows what else has he [‘terminated’ Secretary of Defense Esper] refused to do?”
(For one thing, according to Politico, Esper clashed with Trump over pulling U.S. troops out of Afghanistan.)
Brennan added:
“Who knows what [freshly appointed Acting Secretary of Defense] Chris Miller is going to do if Donald Trump does give some kind of order that really is counter to what I think our national security interests need to be?”
There are abundant — and disquieting (to Brennan) — clues to this, in the events unfolding over the past several days.
For starters, there is the role Ignatius (as close to Brennan as a Siamese twin) played in setting an unusually transparent table to interpret Brennan’s CNN interview the morning after — curiously, without mentioning the interview itself.
(Yes, this is the same David Ignatius who reported on the leaked, late-Dec. 2016 telephone conversation between Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak and Gen. Michael Flynn, which was used to trap Flynn and, if possible, put him in prison. After all, Flynn was a major threat. He knew — or would have been able to find out — where most of the Russiagate bodies were buried. It was imperative that he be removed quickly from his position as Trump’s national security adviser.)...
Read the indented quotes again. That is the deep state in full throated sedition. You have a sitting Secretary of Defense fired for not following the direct orders from the Commander in Chief, i.e. his boss, aka The duly elected US President and then a former CIA operative who wants to continue to run things his way - even though he has been out of office, i.e. power, for more than 4 frick'n years. Plus we also have the Lame Scream Media (Ignatius) laying ground cover for the traitors.
This level of sedition and treason cannot be tolerated in a civil society and must be prosecuted and punished severely.
