In the United States - a series of resignations of high-ranking officials in law enforcement agencies and intelligence services

In the United States, more and more people began to talk about high-profile resignations in the senior command staff. One of the first in this regard was the impending resignation of the head of the Joint Chiefs of Staff of the United States, Mark Milley. According to the American press, he will most likely be replaced by General Brown.

And if the resignation of General Mark Milley from his post was announced a long time ago, then the message that two heads of the NSA (national security agency) were "getting ready" for retirement at once leads to some reflections.

The director of the NSA, the head of the Cyber ​​Command and the Central Security Service, General Paul Nakasone, and his deputy, George Barnes, announced their desire to leave their posts. On February 15 of this year, John Chris Inglis, National Director of Cybersecurity, who also previously worked at the NSA, resigned.

Such a "sharp" departure of several key leaders of "power" structures at once in such a difficult time for the United States causes bewilderment, and primarily in the United States itself. Given that the Republicans in the House of Representatives have a number of questions for the directors of the CIA and the FBI, it is quite possible that these resignations will not be the last.

Millie and Sullivan are considered the main brakemen of the deliveries. For example, the State Department and Blinkin almost always took a tougher stance than Milli. Millie also had friction on this score with her supervisor Austin. So you have to watch who comes. Relatively speaking, if only Sullivan remains, then his position will be pressed even more actively at meetings.

Millie and Sullivan

As they say, for Russia both are worse.

[donavi49]

Sullivan and Millie slowed down the F-16 as best they could. For example, Blinkin, Austin, Burns advocated the political start of the process in the fall, according to a recent leak in the media.

Well, military personnel always understand the consequences of a "dumb whore" better than politicians

""The most important thing in the profession of a thief is to escape in time" (f. "The Feast of St. Jorgen") As they got ready to retire in time, others will rake up the consequences of their activities. And so ... well, what can you take from a pensioner, except maybe memoirs.

This is wrong. They will appoint hearings in Congress, so they will pull out and only go from retirement. There may be clarity on this in the coming months. If the generals quietly slip away to countries without being extradited to the United States, then they are afraid to answer for what they have done. If not, the Democrats forced them to leave in order to put in their place more manageable and less intelligent ...

. Why do they need a gloomy general??? There will be another, smiling something...

smiling thing...

with black hung

[rotmistr60]

The more resignations and, in connection with this, confusion in the armed forces and special services of the enemy, the better. Let there, like spiders in a jar, gnaw, maybe during this period attention to Kyiv will weaken a little. Although hardly. But squabbles and resignations in law enforcement agencies are clearly and in any case not beneficial.

causes bewilderment, and primarily in the United States itself.

Much more bewildering is the question of why some of us remain in positions, and even receive awards

The headline, of course, is loud, but it is clear from the article that there is no series of resignations yet, only talk.

One resignation is for sure - Millie's term as Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff ends on October 1, 2023.
The chairs of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, with rare exceptions, serve two two-year terms, and Milley was appointed by Trump on September 30, 2019.
The fact that Biden will appoint the current Chief of Staff of the Air Force, General Charles C. Brown, Jr., as the next chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, has been discussed in the United States since early May.
Brown will become the second black chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff after Powell, he is a former F-16 pilot, is considered an Air Force lobbyist, and was not seen as particularly supportive of Ukraine.

Biden is also reportedly considering Commandant of the Marine Corps General David Berger for the position of Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and has previously met with both of them.

They seem to have a sequence for holding this position by representatives of different types of armed forces, as well as the marines.

There used to be such a tradition, but Kennedy broke it, and since then the order has not been observed. If General Brown is appointed to replace Millie, he will become the first Air Force native to chair the Joint Chiefs of Staff in 20 years.
But they can appoint General Berger from the Marine Corps, despite the fact that before Molly the chairman was also a native of the Marine Corps.

Since February, one has left, two are on the way, and one more in the near future. And there might be more. You understand how much information a newly appointed leader must delve into before he begins to understand anything. And two people leave the NSA at once - the chief and the deputy.

[Landwarrior]

They are retiring to volunteer to/to Ukraine

[nepunamemuk]

Yes, and we need attack aircraft on the LBS
learn a little

[Ascetic]

Millie has always maintained. that sooner or later Ukraine will sit down at the negotiating table, unlike Austin, a supporter of the war to the last Ukrainian .. There is no consensus in the Washington regional committee. Austin and Blinken are the main "hawks" - the war to the bitter end, Millie and Sullivan are supporters of freezing the conflict in Ukraine in order to focus on Southeast Asia and China.
For us, those that others are outright enemies. As they say, the same eggs are only a side view ... Accordingly, one must treat all these rumors, they will leave alone. others will replace the same. A holy place is never empty.

[rocket757]

From changing places, shuffling the marked deck, nothing fundamentally changes.
There is only an enemy, though there is an interval from complete scumbags to more or less sane, but it won’t be much easier because politicians rule everything, and there, such a zoo, predators are vultures, only they are ... well, maybe different cobras among them wormed their way, one fig, GaD D Dy and no one else.

What is this one? Crap one's pants with Ukraine, or what??

[Arkady007]

Strange situation. We are fighting, and they have resignations in the General Staff.

[nordscout]

Yes! The topic is "worthy" of discussion among the "couch experts" and the editorial team of VO ..... Let the President of the United States and the Senate have a "headache" on personnel problems in the US Armed Forces, and we have our own personnel, financial, economic, social and, simply , ethical issues in the RF Ministry of Defense - "above the roof." Of course, it’s time to “slow down” personnel transfers in the US Armed Forces, and, most importantly, it’s safe, comfortable and does not require much mental stress ... But talking, in essence, about problems in one’s own home, a feeling of healthy “stupidity” does not allow, yes and the brain must be "turned on" and strained .... And the United States "rinsing" is for us, just, come on !!!!!!! You immediately fall into the category of desperate patriots and "thin analysts - political scientists" ... And the United States - from our "washing their bones" - is neither hot nor cold, as well as from landscapes with "red lines", brushes of domestic masters, and expressions another "concern" to the "talking heads" of the Russian Foreign Ministry ... An analogy arises with the old Eastern proverb about the coming USA + West - a caravan (in the direction they need) and uncharacteristic noise (sounds) heard in the area of ​​​​the legs of pack animals ..... I think it's time to regain respect from Europe, the former Soviet republics. Moreover, Russia has everything for this (both a carrot and a stick), it just needs a little political will, common sense and an ideological component in working with the country's population, potential partners, and possibly temporary fellow travelers, who, for now, are "above the roof." .. You look and the European people will reach out to Russia in the literal and figurative sense .... Of course, I understand that Africa is the birthplace of mankind, and the East and Asia, near and far, are the birthplace of world civilizational transformations, but Czech beer, German cars or French perfume, Shakespeare and Kant - somehow more understandable, closer, or something, to the Russians .... "Let's return" Europe - Africa, East, Asia will themselves line up for entry into "friends" (well, at least , in "temporary fellow travelers") .... Something like this ....

Suggest a topic for discussion. Who forbids you?

[alystan]

I'm afraid to even guess... Is it really because they didn't save Zalugny? ))))
Now this series can also affect the Square?

[TermNachTer]

This is unlikely, the puppeteers remained, and the replacement of talking heads does not really matter.
