Ezra Cohen-Watnick just delivered a speech regarding the move to place civilian SpecOps directly underneath the Acting Sec of Defense. Listen closely.

Is this just fancy commo for obunghole's civilian defense corps...
That's what all those billions in arms & ammo were for...

Not to worry... Harris-Pelousy will take care of us...

[RummyChick]

So is this just about getting the troops out of Afghanistan?

Boy this news really has people on the internet speculating from little to far outlandish of what it means

I guess one thing we can say is that it did, indeed, shake things up.

[Mariner]

“Dark cloud of needed martial law is on the horizon to forestall civil war.”

Many of us would prefer the latter.

[lodi90]

Could this be related to Iran? If the steal goes through Trump will want to leave some landmines for Biden.

[RummyChick]

i forgot all about that...people wondered if we were about to have a Gestapo.

This will probably have Dems wondering the same

[crusher2013]

What is “E”?

[Chainmail]

You do understand that nothing you write makes any sense, right?

1. All of the service branches come under civilian chain of command, already. If you had even taken a tour of the Pentagon, you'd already know that. Walk over the the E Ring and take a look.

2. Special Operations would do exactly what if martial law was declared?

"Mass has a quality of its own...and the masses are clearly irreconcialbe"

What in Heaven's name are you talking about? Mass rests with the United States Army, not a few special operators. As far as we civilians go, we have our individual weapons (of about 200 individual calibers, not counting wildcats), no organization, no leaders, no structure, and no chance whatsoever of putting all that together, since everything in the digital stream is watching each and every one of us, 24/7.

It’s a version of “q”

some think it is someone impersonating Ezra.

others think it was Ezra.

Twitter keeps deleting the profile.

Some say Ezra is having it deleted.

One of them had a post that said just got promoted. I think before it was announced.

Has a nifty little video pinned but dont know where it is now since everything gets deleted

[RushIsMyTeddyBear]

Supposedly some gov “insider”. But who the heck knows.

[Chainmail]

"Civilian SpecOps... not active duty."

And what is that? When did somebody think that one up? and in the end, who would they report to?

[M. Thatcher]

Could this be related to Iran?

Possibly.

Trump wanted to take out Iran's nuclear site and his "advisors" and the military basically said NO.

If Trump thinks that needs to happen for the good of the USA, he will find a way to make it happen – and this may be his method.

But I think the new special forces military structure may well be more probably related to internationally placed servers and other evidence that needs to be secured for pending court cases – for the survival of the USA as we know it.

He says “1000 pieces”. Is he channeling JFK?

[OldGoatCPO]

Obama pushed Asymmetrical warfare using small groups of highly trained professional to fight a war vice a large over whelming conventional force. Asymmetrical warfare originally meant something else, but has been by Obama to refer to the use of Spec Warfare types in growing numbers. It is a political savvy thing to do as it reduces the number of body bags coming home. Bush used contractors in the same way. Nobody cares if a contractor is killed, look at DC’s attitude toward the contractors killed in Libya. If it had not been good political fodder nobody would have cared.

The Marine Corps used to pride itself on not having Spec Warfare, all Marines were highly trained killers...OOHRAH. Now they have MARSOC. The Navy increased the number of Seal Teams. All to fight a targeted war with a small number of people. I think this move is just a continued evolution of the Spec Warfare groups.

I suspect this may be connected to PDJT’s 9/2018 EO and SoE regarding election interference.

[Mathews]

Former SpecOps folks who are now civilians and work for one of the Alphabet Offices... primarily the CIA. The boys who defended our real estate in Benghazi fit this bill to a “T” because this it what they are.

[\/\/ayne]

This is from 2007, little has changed:



In Sabotage, you'll learn:

* How CIA analysts repeatedly leak details about classified intelligence programs with the dual intent of ending them and damaging the president

* How, on at least eight occasions, intelligence officials have made serious allegations of wrongdoing against the president's men--which turned out to be false

* Why, contrary to popular belief, the CIA has become predominantly liberal

* How a CIA turf battle prevented special operators from pursuing and capturing a notorious Taliban leader

* How current and former CIA officers fueled conspiracy theories that President Bush orchestrated the 9/11 attacks on America

* How a CIA leak to the New York Times deprived the U.S. of critical information in the War on Terror

* How press leaks by the CIA have damaged relations with our foreign allies in the War on Terror

* How a CIA analyst worked with Democrats to sabotage the nomination of John Bolton to the UN

* How Clinton's downsizing of the CIA led to the closing of stations in scores of jihadist breeding grounds--including Hamburg, Germany, where the 9/11 plot was hatched

[M. Thatcher]

All of the service branches come under civilian chain of command, already.

That's the Constitutional structure.

For the last four years that has not been the case.

The military has on multiple occasions directly disobeyed the President with zero consequences.

The fact that Lt. Col. "the President disobeyed my talking points" Vinman was not court-martialed is just one minor example of the agency-wide US military RESISTANCE.

[RummyChick]

i hope Trump at least declassifies JFK files so we can know if CIA was involved

[Rockingham]

The problem then becomes the Army’s institutional opposition to special forces. And why send special forces when a division can be used and an entire generation of young career officers get their combat experience tickets punched?

[polymuser]

“Is he channeling JFK?”

E referenced JFK (a Democrat!) heavily. I suspect it was to rub D’rats’ noses in PDJT doing something one of their own wanted, before they get their noses rubbed in their crimes (after discovery and exposure by SpecOps).
