WASHINGTON — Retired Army Col. Derek Harvey, a longtime intelligence analyst who had been close to former National Security Advisor Michael Flynn, has been fired from his job on the National Security Council — the latest twist of intrigue in a White House beset by competing power centers.

National Security Adviser H. R. McMaster "removed" Harvey, NSC spokesman Michael Anton told NBC News.

"General McMaster greatly appreciates Derek Harvey's service to his country as a career Army officer, where he served his country bravely in the field and played a crucial role in the successful surge in Iraq, and also for his service on Capitol Hill and in the bubblefart administration," Anton said in a statement. "The administration is working with Colonel Harvey to identify positions in which his background and expertise can be best utilized."

Not sure what to make of this.

McMaster was also apparently given a list of Obama dregs to fire and refused, though it's hard to really know what really goes on in there.

Need to wrap this Russia thing up asap. Flynn needs to rejoin the fray.

What's your scenario where Flynn can rejoin the administration? He was forced to quit because he lied to Pence, even if he's totally cleared of any wrongdoing with the Russia stuff he lied to the VP

So? DJT probably does it every day.

I reckon Flynn was just a rabbit to chase. They knew they were being surveilled and he's not stupid enough to believe what he was saying wasn't being tapped and then leaked.

Got the press all fired up with this Russia narrative that has lasted 6 months while DJT has repealed a bucketload of regulations quietly and without much noise, has also now lead to this Special 'Counsel' which is about to explode spectacularly in the Democrats face.

Once this Russia thing is done and a bunch of criminals from the past administration are indicted I reckon he will be back.

Flounce bet (forever). Flynn will not come back within the next 6 months nor will there be a major indictment of anyone from the Obama administration.

because he is as always a dishonest republican cunt, he sank the bill purely as a fuck you to bubblefart, make no mistake

I get that part. I was wondering what he meant with his claim that the way Obamacare was put through split the houses, even though we know the GOP had plenty of input.

Not to mention that he would not have been the lone voice had the other two senators not been consistently against it from the start (side note: I did enjoy the fact that the cabinet member whom bubblefart despatched to threaten the Murkowski is overseen by a committee on which she sits. Winning so hard).

Essentially, because the ACA passed when the Democrats had a majority, they did not need any Republican votes, and did not receive any, so McCain is blaming them for taking advantage of that fact (to be fair, it is apparently harder than it looks). It suited the Republican narrative, when the bill was unpopular, to claim that the act was forced through undemocratically against the will of the American people; now, of course, given that Obamacare is increasingly popular by comparison with the bills that have been proposed in its place, it looks hypocritical and stupid, especially give McConnell's tactics, but facts or optics have never concerned Republicans.

I can hear the echos of the WaPo wailing alone against the Nixonian WH.

And that was back in the days when they needed old reel-to-reel tapes of Nixon admitting he was fully briefed on the dirty tricks.

these days everyone has a phone capable of recording & taking pictures, & video; as SCROTUS has already discovered....

I'm convinced that there's already the recording out there that can get him impeached; it just hasn't surfaced yet, & with the rate at which he is pissing off & betraying people, it can only be a matter of time before someone buries him.

He was impeachable on day one, it's all about Republicans in Congress and whether they're willing to turn on him. I don't see another recording tipping them over given what's already come out about him. Dems take the House next year or it's Drumpf 2020

Is this a pisstake?
The only thing less appetising than that crappy old steak is the supposed "glamorous " clientele.
