...with intention.

"On November 9, 2020, Trump fired Defense Secretary Mark Esper for insufficient loyalty and replaced him with Christopher Miller, who then served as Acting Defense Secretary. Trump also installed Ezra Cohen-Watnick, a Michael Flynn ally, to the position of Undersecretary for Intelligence and Security. Trump made other changes at the Pentagon, including installing a man who had called for Trump to declare martial law in a top position.

1. Important stuff...

some of the inaction at the Jan 6 coup attempt can be traced to late-term appointments to Defense and the Pentagon.

2. they were pushing every button during the transition.

we were wondering what they were up to, but i dont think any of us thought it was this bad.
we just thought they were shredding evidence.

3. I thought it was this bad.

I couldn’t understand why members of the press and Congress weren’t addressing it.
