President Trump on Monday announced that Defense Secretary Mark Esper has been ‘terminated’ – and that the “highly respected Director of the National Counterterrorism Center,” Christopher C. Miller, will serve as Acting Secretary of Defense,” effective immediately.”
…Chris will do a GREAT job! Mark Esper has been terminated. I would like to thank him for his service.

Esper’s departure had been telegraphed for some time, with the Pentagon Chief going so far as to draft a resignation letter (albeit a common practice ahead of a potential presidential transition).
As we noted last Thursday, Esper was expected to be pushed out following the election. This also after protests and riots broke out on American streets through the summer. Esper reportedly strongly opposed Trump efforts to send active duty troops to hot spots that had seen widespread rioting and looting.
Esper had also been attempting to rename all US military bases bearing the names of Confederate leaders – such as Fort Bragg, Fort Hood and eight other Army posts – a move opposed by President Trump.
“As his tenure may be coming to an end, Esper is helping members of Congress draft legislation that will strip names of Confederate leaders from military bases in a move that could put him further at odds with President Donald Trump,” NBC wrote last week.
Trump supporters have welcomed the move.
Good riddance.

One down, hundreds to go.
Esper refused a direct order to bring in the military when the riots were raging in DC. Next to go will be Haspell. Trump is readying for the shit storm that the dems will release once the Supreme Court declares him the winner.
SCOTUS will not declare him the winner, but will rule in his favor on several suits. Several state legislatures will select Trump’s slate of electors due to massive fraud on the part of dem cities.
Nit pick away, the fact of the matter is if the Supreme Court rules in his favor then he has, by all accounts, been declared the winner.
Supreme Court is in bed with and having dirty sex with staying in power…no matter what. When is the last time a Supreme Court Justice retired?
As if Ruth Bader Ginsberg new what day it was WAY before she died.
Of all Federal Government positions that need term limits….this would be the one.
No one gets out of here alive.
Best to hunker down and enjoy life on our own individual terms and accept our reality.
There is much joy in life to be had away from politics, religion and virtual reality escapism….if you look for it.
I think Souter was the last one and O’Connor the one before that.
I stand corrected.
I commend Souter for getting out ……probably because he is a decent human being .
Don’t forget, he voted with the majority against Kelo, telling us nothing we owned was really ours, if the state wanted it.
There’s a problem with this point of view.
THEY won’t let you enjoy life on your own terms. Proclamations, directives, petty laws … all of it will follow you as long as THEY are in charge.
I think the case in PA is a slam dunk, but the others I am not so sure about. Trump needs to win them all to be re-elected.
Mygirl, I sure hope you have more foresight on this than you last prediction. 🙂
The Supreme Court could indict a ham sandwich before noon.

During the Dark Winter, there will be a Great Reset, where we will Build Back Better, a more equitable, and sustainable form of global capitalism. It will include a Green New deal, funded by Modern Monetary Theory to allow all the stakeholders to rebuild a New World Order, rising like a phoenix out of the ashes of the current world.
The current world that we have destroyed, with our fake virus, faulty testing and our insidious lockdowns, and closure of non-essential businesses and workers, who will be lined up and shot, if they do not conform to our way of thinking.
This is the future, like it or not, we will be forcing it down your throat, resistance is futile, we own all the means of production, all the media, all the banking, and all the governments.
Your pesky ideas of a constitutional republic are to be smashed, with malice.
Who gives a shit? Should have fired him months ago.
Where’s .22 WinFag with the gay comments when he’s actually needed?
He’s in a closet, on his knees.
Now fire Gina Haspell and Christopher Wray!
And Barr, maybe give him 2 weeks after it becomes clear Trump will win, and if no arrests, GTFO.
Fauci, fire fucking Fauci!! And that scarf bitch also.
Change Mr Esper’s name to Comrade Eshitberg and drum him out of the Pentagon.
Cut off the head of the snake: the Federal Reserve Rottenschild Bank and audit Fort Knox for real.
Esper was key for the “Drag him out of the White House” plan.
And amazingly enough, he had the balls to openly say he would not follow ANY of Trumps orders last week.
This is where we are at, flirting with the abyss.
Christopher C. Miller
“He previously served as the assistant secretary of defense for special operations and low-intensity conflict and was most recently the director of the National Counterterrorism Center, according to his biography on the Department of Defense website.”
Oht-oh.
“According to the DOD, Miller was responsible for “overseeing the employment of special operations forces in counterterrorism, Military Information Support Operations (MISO), Information Operations, unconventional warfare, irregular warfare, direct action, special reconnaissance, foreign internal defense, counter prolif
eration, sensitive special operations, and personnel recovery/hostage issues as specified by the Secretary of Defense.”
Wow, if I were involved in a seditious coup to overthrow the United States this appointment might make me nervous.
To put it mildly.
Lets listen to the squealing in the next 48 for hints of fear.
A snake eater was just handed command of the whole shebang.
Ruh roh is right, Otto.
