[hlthe2b]

[justhanginon]

5. Hmm. then a good one to be forced out...

[More_Cowbell]

6. Michael Anton, I bet

9. Anton is a farce

His "deep" articles are devoid of insight.

Hopefully McMaster will install some experienced professionals.

10. Indictments coming soon, by the looks of it. Rumoured to be many of them.

[Squinch]

11. McMaster seems to NOT be bat shit crazy. So refreshing.

[Sculpin Beauregard]

12. McMaster will be running the govt when all the king's men fall.

He's in the process of setting that up now.

Thank you Joy Reid, and shame on the rest of the cowardly MSM. Americans should not have to get their news from the Guardian UK and Twitter, but they have been more reliable than MSM (MSNBC being exception. Rachel has been great, and Joy).

13. What about the kid who tipped off Nunes?

14. I'm pretty sure Rebekkah will get her way

....on Bannon.

Bannon has enough of a media platform in BreitBart and with her money backing to make a lot of trouble for 45 if he's ousted.

McMaster only cares about national security and Russia and almost nothing about white supremacists in the WH. If he did care he would never have taken the job to begin with.

15. I'm afraid you're right, but would not necessarily pin the

blame on McMaster. Something about him picking his battles for now.

T likes Bannon, and maybe is a little afraid of him. The Mercers have had deep pockets for T, and so the Bannon issue is a little more complex for T than others.

[Sculpin Beauregard]

16. There needs to be extreme public education - a bright light- shone

on the Mercers and Kochs. They are odious human beings and have too much power. They give not a fucking shit for their country and have nothing but contempt for human beings.

They are all utter fucking monsters.

[zentrum]

23. I thought the Kochs were

....as bad as it could get but the Mercers are demonic.

[Sculpin Beauregard]

25. Yes, yes they are. That Refukkkah Mercer is

beyond the pale. And the obsession with goat piss...I mean, it defies belief.

Turns out Robert Mercer owes the IRS 7 billion, which is why he installed Bannon, Sessions and Flynn in WH as his chess pieces.

[JI7]

20. i think McMaster had to take the job since he was currently serving

[zentrum]

22. That is a point, but I think he would...

.....have been given a pass by Bannon/Trump simply by voicing some qualms or opinions (in code) that Bannon would have known right away signaled a divergence of goals.

I think Bannon is very, very careful on who he includes. Not careful about their corruption (a la Flynn) but careful about their ideology.

26. Mcmaster

Maybe McMaster was persuaded to take the job by people who believe that a purge and subsequent coup are necessary.

[Hekate]

17. I sure hope this pans out

[Laffy Kat]

18. We sure keep waiting. nt

[lindysalsagal]

19. A 100-day purge of a staff that never was complete can only be pre-indictment panic

I have said all along that at some point 45 will burn through every bit of his staff and be sitting all alone at the oval office desk ranting at the paintings.

It was a star trek episode when everyone disappeared from the ship, leaving beverly crusher all alone as the captain.

At some point, interns will be answering phones from heads of state, the butlers will be telling people that no one's home, and senators will wander in, wondering wtf needs to get done to keep the country open and the paychecks moving to federal workers.....

21. Is this another shoe about to drop?

Ooh, if twitter says it, then it must be so!

24. The IC works best in a stable home political environment where everyone knows the rules.

Interestingly enough, most of the IC realizes that taking over, or supporting a facist state at home is not a stable enough environment to support the bureaucracy; the political stress to gain and retain power distracts from "the mission" - it's far more efficient and expedient in the long term to be "the power behind the throne", as it were, and let a stable democracy and economic base run the country. And it's critical to have a reality-based objective analysis on world events and risks that is not colored by personal biases that can turn around and bite the community in the ass.

No matter their personal politics and viewpoints, the IC understands that End-time Dominionists and Leninist Destabilizers are bad for a country's business. Easy enough to manipulate, but too hard and expensive to control. And preferably, dictators should be in other countries, not the home country...

This is just long-term self-protection on their part.
