The head of the #NSA & US #Cyber Command was removed from his job on Thurs, acc/to the top #Democrats on the congressional #intelligence committees.
Senator Mark Warner of Virginia & Representative Jim Himes of Connecticut condemned the ouster of Gen. Timothy D. Haugh, who led both the #spy agency & the #military command.
The move caught intelligence officials off guard.
A spox for #USCyberCom said she could not confirm Gen Haugh’s removal, & referred questions to the #Pentagon, which did not respond for comment. A White House spox did not confirm the ouster.
But a #US official briefed on the matter said #LauraLoomer, a #FarRight activist & outside adviser to #Trump, called for Gen Haugh’s removal during her Oval Office meeting on Thurs. Trump ordered #Defense Secy #PeteHegseth to fire Gen Haugh, the ofcl said.
Gen Haugh was also seen by the #Trump admin as moving too slowly on its mandate to eliminate #DEI programs.
Rep Himes, the top Democrat on the #House #Intelligence Cmte, said the public was owed an explanation.
“I have known General Haugh to be an honest & forthright leader who followed the #law & put #NationalSecurity first—I fear those are precisely the qualities that could lead to his firing in this administration,” Himes said.
…Gen Haugh was informed of the decision while traveling. Current & fmr ofcls said Gen Haugh’s deputy at the #NSA, Wendy Noble, was also removed from her post, & possibly reassigned to another position at the #Pentagon.
…#Defense Secy #PeteHegseth & #Trump have removed several top officers from their posts including the chair of the #JointChiefs of Staff…; the chief of naval operations [#Navy #CNO]…; & the commandant of the #CoastGuard….
He didn't kiss Putin's behind. Mortal sin in this Russian puppet regime.
"... to slow to remove DEI programs..."
Because Sean Connery and John Wayne playing as Chinese spies is a great use of time, money, resources?
