Thread by @ArmsControlWonk

Sure looks like the outgoing Administrator of the National Nuclear Security Administration (@NNSANews ) retweeted, then deleted, a lot of questionable tweets about the election. A short thread.

What follows are many deleted retweets from @LGordonHagerty, which is apparently personal account of outgoing @LGHNNSA -- courtesy of the @internetarchive. These were things others said rhat she retweeted, then deleted.

You have to click through to see the original tweets -- which, again, she was retweeting. You tell me if you want this person overseeing the nation's nuclear stockpile.

It all started innocently enough on election day. She retweeted something by Ivanka Trump. But then again, it always starts so innocently, doesn't it?

The she retweeted some complaints about vandalized Trump signs in Maine. People shouldn't vandalize signs.

And she retweeted a little Jack Posobeic. 🤨

Things got weirder on November 4. She retweeted some joy that Susan Collins won reelection in Maine, which ... ok.

But she also retweeted a "joke" about a "Miracle: Ballot Counter Turns 5 Biden Votes Into 5,000."

And then she went off the rails. She retweeted a guy who says about the election: "It is theft. They are stealing it."

This guy is a real piece of work. Just to give you a sense of her media diet -- the person responsible for the nation's nuclear stockpile -- she's retweeeting stuff from a guy also tweets stuff like this. I would describe him as QAnon-adjacent.

And last, but certainly not least, she retweeted some stuff about fighting with Trump to the bitter end, which is only embarrassing because the account is @catturd2. I don't know about "Cat Turd 1" and, frankly, I don't want to.

Anyway, she's now resigned -- although reportedly for other reasons. Still, these retweets are not the sign of someone with a firm grasp on reality. It will be good to have someone else overseeing the nation's nuclear stockpile.

I think these are all of them, but I may have missed a few. Will update if necessary. /END
