BREAKING DAILY BEANS EXCLUSIVE: This story involves Kash Patel; long-time Nunes aide who was just installed in the Pentagon as the Chief of Staff for trump's newly-minted Secretary of Defense Chris Miller. I'll start with the facts. THREAD 1/
In November 2019, it was reported that Col. Vindman had been instructed NOT to attend a Ukraine briefing in the Oval because donald thought Kash Patel - not Col. Vindman - was the director of Ukraine in the NSC. That's because Patel TOLD donald he was. 2/ politico.com/news/2019/10/3…
Bolton made the call to keep Vindman out of the briefing. At the time, it was reported that Vindman's presence would confuse the president. Here's the new information: it was actually because Bolton was trying to shield Vindman from being given compromising information 3/
Bolton knew trump hated Ukraine and would likely say something about his illegal activity. It sure would have been helpful to have Bolton testify that he was shielding Vindman from potential criminal information coming from trump about Ukraine. Now, fast forward to today...4/
And this is where the speculation begins. Ask yourself WHY would trump be firing Esper and installing Nunes aides in the pentagon and at the NSC general counsel. It seems to me, and this is conjecture, that donald knows he's on his way out. 5/
It feels like trump is removing road blocks to clear the way for something nefarious. I can only guess what it might be. Perhaps sending arms to Saudi Arabia. Perhaps a way to get nuclear technology to MBS (Middle East Marshall Plan). 6/
In all cases, it's something transactional to pay his debts, line his pockets, or secure a new home in a country without an extradition treaty. Whatever it is, it's more than destabilization & chaos. We will keep an eye on all of it for you and report it on the @dailybeanspod END
PS: Stacking the pentagon and the NSA with your friends also makes it super easy to destroy evidence.
