Has anyone seen the Star Trek episode “The Drumhead”? This is gaining striking similarity.

Also similar to the “Battlestar Galactica” episode “Litmus”.
Adama reveals to Galactica’s master-at-arms Sergeant Hadrian that the Cylons now have human form and that there are many copies of each model. Adama requests that Hadrian run an investigation into Doral’s bombing. Citing the recent security breaches such as the water tank explosion, Hadrian requests an independent tribunal that will allow her to act separate from command review. Adama agrees despite President Roslin warning that such a tribunal could turn into a witch hunt.
(Per Wikepedia)
Ah, of course. And Adama fires her ass for turning an investigation into a which hunt, forcing a confrontation of power in which he wins. I think Trump needs to go the Adama route.
