    Top Pentagon official leaving Trump administration

    Top Pentagon official leaving Trump administration

    excerpt:

    "John Rood, undersecretary of Defense for policy at the Pentagon, will exit his post following a request for his resignation.

    Rood, who assumed his position in 2018, serves as a principal adviser to Defense Secretary Mark Esper and coordinates national security policy within the Pentagon as part of his role. He also oversees areas that deal with the country's partnership with foreign allies."

    Trump goofed the name of former US attorney in Illinois, Patrick Fitzgerald, referring to him as 'Fitzpatrick' when he announced his pardons and mentioned Comey's name. Fitzgerald prosecuted Blagojevich.

    Trump is upset that Fitzgerald and Comey were associates.

    Fitzgerald worked on the Plame case which led to the conviction of Scooter Libby. Trump pardoned Libby in 2018.

    Balgojevich's wife publicly praised Trump and attacked Comey and Mueller before Trump pardoned Blagojevich.

    'I saw his wife on television': Trump commuted Blagojevich's prison sentence after his wife attacked Comey and Mueller on Fox News

    'I saw his wife on television': Trump commuted Blagojevich's prison sentence after his wife attacked Comey and Mueller on Fox News

    excerpt:

    "Mueller was director of the FBI when Blagojevich was investigated, and Comey was deputy attorney general. Comey's good friend, Patrick Fitzgerald, spearheaded the prosecution of Blagojevich as the US Attorney in Chicago.

    There's no evidence that Mueller, Comey, or Fitzpatrick were part of a politically-motivated investigation against Blagojevich, who congressional Republicans have referred to as the "the face of public corruption in Illinois."

    There is also no evidence that political bias tainted the Justice Department's Russia investigation, which Comey led before his controversial ouster. Mueller was subsequently appointed as special counsel to oversee the Russia probe, which also looked into whether the Trump campaign coordinated with the Kremlin in 2016."

    Rood warned Trump about his withholding of U.S. aid to Ukraine for personal benefit.

    Trump is naming Richard Grenell to be the acting director of national intelligence to replace acting director Joseph Maguire who replaced Dan Coats who resigned.

    Trump Offered Assange Pardon if He Covered Up Russian Hack, WikiLeaks Founder’s Lawyer Claims

    Trump Offered Assange Pardon if He Covered Up Russian Hack, WikiLeaks Founder’s Lawyer Claims

    excerpt:

    "LONDON—A lawyer for Julian Assange has claimed in court that President Donald Trump offered to pardon Assange if the WikiLeaks founder agreed to help cover up Russia’s involvement in hacking emails from the Democratic National Committee.

    Assange’s lawyers said on Wednesday that former Republican congressman Dana Rohrabacher offered Assange the deal in 2017, a year after emails that damaged Hillary Clinton in the presidential race had been published. WikiLeaks posted the stolen DNC emails after they were hacked by Russian operatives.

    The claim that Rohrabacher acted as an emissary for the White House came during a pre-extradition hearing in London."

    Coats had warned Trump about Russian interference in U.S. elections, similar to how Rood had warned Trump about his scheme of withholding of U.S. aid to Ukraine for personal benefit. Trump disposed of both of them.

    Trump wanted loyalist Ratcliffe of Texas to replace Coats. Ratcliffe dropped out after controversy over his embellished resume that made it appear that he had put many terrorists in prison.

    Ratcliffe's resume was similar to that of Mina Chang of Trump's State Department who put her face on the cover of a fake Time magazine. It was shown on TV during an interview of her and she didn't say it was fake. Chang resigned after her embellishments became known.

    Coats was an experienced U.S. senator from Indiana and a former U.S. ambassador to Germany, whereas Ratcliffe was a little known representative from Texas.

    Trump uses the acting role (the government one, not his Hollywood one) to circumvent the need for Senate confirmation. When the allowed period for an acting official is about to expire, he appoints another acting official.
