The White House is withdrawing the nomination of Elaine McCusker to be the Pentagon's comptroller, according to a White House official.
McCusker was the Pentagon's acting comptroller who raised concerns about the legality of Ukraine military aid being held by the Trump administrationPolitico was first to report on McCusker's nomination being pulled.McCusker's name -- and qualms about the aid -- have appeared in correspondence between government officials..
'who raised concerns about the legality of Ukraine military aid being held' It wasn't withheld, though. All was released before the deadline and the funds were for THE FOLLOWING YEAR, so there wasn't even any disruption at all. Ukraine didn't even know about it.
One may never cross the King, even when He is wrong. (NB: He is never wrong.)
Why? Because of her idea that questions trumpy's abuse of power? Or is it she wouldn't agree to exist under trumpy's totalitarian thumb screws to be subservient! He wants only jelly brained minions like puppet pence!
Another hero Trump is afraid of.
In the last days people will hate and betray one another.
