Pentagon halts Biden transition briefings

Acting Defense Secretary Chris Miller ordered a Pentagon-wide halt to cooperation with the transition of President-elect Biden, shocking officials across the Defense Department, senior administration officials tell Axios.

By: Axios, December 18, 2020:

Story continues below advertisement

Behind the scenes: A top Biden official was unaware of the directive. Administration officials left open the possibility cooperation would resume after a holiday pause. The officials were unsure what prompted Miller’s action, or whether President Trump approved.

Why it matters: Miller’s move, which stunned officials throughout the Pentagon, was the biggest eruption yet of animus and mistrust toward the Biden team from the top level of the Trump administration.

What happened: Meetings between President Trump’s team and the Biden team are going on throughout the government, after a delayed start as the administration dragged its feet on officially recognizing Biden as president-elect.

Then on Thursday night, Miller — who was appointed Nov. 9, when Trump fired Defense Secretary Mark Esper right after the election — ordered officials throughout the building to cancel scheduled transition meetings.

Pentagon official response: A senior Defense Department official sought to downplay the move, calling it “a simple delay of the last few scheduled meetings until after the new year.”

“We had fewer than two dozen remaining meetings on the schedule today and next week,” the official said, adding that “the DoD staff working the meetings were overwhelmed by the number of meetings.”
“These same senior leaders needed to do their day jobs and were being consumed by transition activities. … With the holidays we are taking a knee for two weeks. We are still committed to a productive transition.”

All these briefing should be halted. No secret information about our Government should be given to this Bidon Idiot or those connected with him. Biden is just a pansy in the hands of Obama and we all know how Obama tried to take down America. This whole Democratic Party needs to abolished it is not what it used to be… it now is a Socialist Communist Party with ideology resembling Nazis and Fascist. They need to be taken down NOT given inside information into our Government.

Acting Defense Secretary Chris Miller is a white hat. Trump just appointed him in November. He replaced deep stater Mark Esper. Miller reports directly to Trump. He’s a patriot and has courage. Maybe he sees Biden’s Chinese problems as a national defense risk and issue…..

I am wondering … is Trump seriously considering Marshall Law…..
Michael Flynn and wonderful patriot is also pushing for it….. comment image

News out of Israel… Could this be why briefing to Biden have been cancelled….

SolarWinds is an Austin based company that develops software for a range of businesses to help manage their networks, systems, and information technology infrastructure. As of December 2020 it had about 300,000 global customers These include nearly all of the Fortune 500 companies and government agencies. SolarWinds says the hack affects more than 18,000 of its customers.

The SolarWinds hack has been rumored to be carried out by a Russian hacker group named APT29, aka Cozy Bear, whose team has now been actively in US system for months. To understand the level of danger the US is now in, the infiltrators also have access to the nuclear armaments, Lockheed Martin, and America’s energy infrastructure. What makes this hack different is that it is still active as the Malware allows the hackers to be in control of the “doorways” of the various systems.

To understand the level of danger the US is now in, the National Security Council called an emergency meeting on Saturday. The government has issued an order for all agencies to be on alert.

“I woke up in the middle of the night last night just sick to my stomach,” said Theresa Payton, who served as White House Chief Information Officer under President George W. Bush. “On a scale of 1 to 10, I’m at a 9 — and it’s not because of what I know; it’s because of what we still don’t know.“

Is It Really Russia?
While there is no denying that Russian hackers have been a constant threat to the US, it is well known that the Chinese and North Koreans have been just as persistent. The fact is, there is nothing stopping Cozy Bear from being outsourced to a third party like China.

Both Russia and China have overlapping interests in orchestrating this sort of attack. For Russia, confusion and disarray are valuable weapons in taking the US down. For China, their primary goal would have been to target the election and from there gain an understanding of the US Military capabilities and direction.

Dominion Voting Systems Used SolarWinds
The focus of the current news of the hack has been to understand the depths of infiltration and control the hackers now have on America’s financial, energy and military infrastructures. However, Dominion Voting Systems used SolarWinds as late as December, well after the elections. The company of course denies ever using SolarWinds, but as CodeMonkeyZ on Twitter shows, their platform as of December 14th proudly displayed a SolarWinds logo at the bottom. The logo has now been taken off.

Felix we are talking controls on our nuclear facilities and weapons being breached. Most of the time when there is a breach everything is taken offline. I pray that is what has happened this time.

Russia or China or both have now pushed America and much of the free world into a corner. The mask is off. US elections cannot be trusted. The populace is tearing itself apart, and there appears to be no one capable of bringing it together.

All of this is leading to President Trump needing to make big decisions regarding the election and any counter strike that is necessary against one or more adversarial state actors. Of course, if the hack is still ongoing, whose to say the US is even in control of their most sensitive military equipment.

Off topic…It’s not as though we didn’t suspect this –
AN EAR PIECE IN BIDEN’S EAR TELLING HIM WHAT TO SAY!

Trump knew it and no one would support him in proving it….

Watch: Obama Talks About Using a ‘Stand-in, a Front-Man’ for a Third Term
(Video at the link… I can’t stand to watch of listen to him. )
By C. Douglas Golden
Published December 15, 2020 at 7:52am

Well, if you listen to Barack Obama, you needn’t worry: It’s definitely going to turn into a third term for him.

“If I could make an arrangement where I had a stand-in, a front man or front woman, and they had an earpiece in, and I was just in my basement in my sweats, looking through the stuff, then deliver the lines, but somebody else was doing all the talking — I’d be fine with that,” Obama said.

Why do they need a transition from Trump’s teams if Trump did nothing right in their eyes? And the peepads is NOT even President Elect until the criminal electors vote on 6 Jan. And IF justice is still alive it will be proven that cheating even got the votes that are claimed to be for peepads!!!!

Stop cooperating! Are they cooperating with the election investigation? He’ll no! Cancel ALL transition activities and drag your feet until we can keep Trump where he rightfully belongs! WE WON! It was blatantly stolen! Stop the transition!
