Q Research General #25079: Barking Up The Wrong Tree Edition
Jews and Freemasonry in the 19th Century
The first reference to a Jew becoming a Mason dates back to 1716. From 1723, Jewish names appear in the archives of the Grand Lodge of England, and James Anderson himself, in the second edition of his Constitutions (1738), refers to several senior Jewish officers of the Grand Lodge, most of them Sephardi.?[1][1]Jean-Philippe Schreiber and Luc Nefontaine, Judaisme et... The practice in England and the British Empire (which would later play an important role in the expansion of Masonry to the United States?[2][2]Samuel Oppenheim, The Jews and Masonry in the United States...), then in the United Provinces and Dutch colonies, was to admit Jews as members, although some lodges did discriminate against them.

Jews were allowed in. Not the other way around.
Do they EVER CREATE ANYTHING? No.
THEY STEAL IT. Useful IDIOTS.
Stop giving them so much POWER. They have NONE!
Modern Freemasonry began in England around 1717; in 1723 the London Grand Lodge adopted a constitution formulated by the Reverend James Anderson, based on some older traditions. A printed constitution facilitated the foundation of new lodges on the basis of a recognized authority. During the next decades the lodges spread, in Britain, France, Holland, Germany, and many other countries. All the lodges regarded themselves as belonging to the same fraternity, and a Freemason appearing at any lodge with a certificate of membership was admitted to the work of the lodge and entitled to hospitality and help in case of need. The first paragraph of the constitution stated that anyone found to be true and honest, of whatever denomination or persuasion, was to be admitted. The constitution obliged the member only to hold "to that religion in which all men agree, leaving their particular opinions to themselves," a declaration of religious tolerance based on the current Deist trend, which postulated a Supreme Being who could be conceived of by any rational being. It is not known whether the possible aspiration of Jews to be accepted in the lodges influenced the wording of the constitution; yet it is formulated in a way that includes Jews as possible members. Thus, when a Jew asked for admission in 1732, one of the London lodges accepted him. The doors of the English lodges remained open to Jews in principle, although in practice there was some discrimination.

Q Research General #21939: 81st anniversary of the attack on #PearlHarbor Edition
>>17902941
Sir Roy Malcolm Anderson is a British professor of epidemiology and is the link that connects many of Britain's major modern pandemic responses and the majority of the official cover ups related to those events. He also happens to be the pioneer of pandemic computer modelling, models which - when applied to real world situations - have often proven to be highly erroneous. Nevertheless, his importance to and influence on the events of the last quarter of a century cannot be understated. Sir Roy Anderson is the British Establishment's "man for all seasons" when it comes to pandemics.
Anderson was born on 12 April 1947 to James Anderson and Betty Watson-Weatherborn. He was educated at both Dunscombe School and Hertford Grammar School and would go on to study at Imperial College at the University of London. Between 1971 and 1973 Anderson was an IBM research fellow at the University of Oxford and from there he went on to lecture for four years at King's College, University of London (UCL). In the late 1970s, Anderson could be found lecturing at Imperial College London, where he would also be noted as a reader (a reader denotes an appointment of a senior academic to a Commonwealth further educational establishment with a distinguished international reputation in research or scholarship) between 1980 and 1982. In 1982, he would become a Professor of Parasite Ecology and he would become the head of the UCL's biology department two years later. He would hold these two positions until 1993, when he became the Linacre Professor of Zoology at Oxford University, a historic post first founded in 1860. That same year, Anderson would also be installed as Head of the Department of Zoology. He would also be named the director of the Wellcome Trust. Anderson had already served as a governor at the Wellcome Trust beginning just two years before, in 1991, and he would go on to head this "philanthropic" organisation until 2000, departing only when his behaviour towards a particular lady at Oxford became an uncomfortable issue.
Anderson received the Establishment honour of being elected as a Fellow of the Royal Society in 1986 and he would become known for working on the modelling of the AIDS virus. He subsequently became an advisor for the Thatcher government. He would then begin making media appearances, such as an interview Anderson gave on 24 September 1987, where he politely discusses the AIDS crisis with Colin Tudge on the British classical music station, BBC Radio 3. Anderson's opinion on AIDS was reported again in the then Robert Maxwell-owned Daily Mirror a year later, on 10 September 1988. He had made a speech to the Science Association at a meeting in Oxford where he is recorded as warning that the country may be "on the border line of an epidemic that could hit many heterosexuals". A survey conducted over the following year would find that some AIDS experts were concerned about the fight against the disease being downgraded because of the public perception that it "only threatens homosexuals and drug addicts." Remarkably, the survey's findings showed that AIDS specialists believed that there were now "medical advantages" to treating HIV-infected people before they develop full-blown AIDS. The Liverpool Echo reported on 28 November 1989, that Prof Roy Anderson's predictions for the future of the spread of AIDS, with the article stating that he believed "the pessimistic view is that the second wave of the epidemic will appear in intravenous drug users in five to ten years time." Anderson also stated that "there might then be a third wave, affecting mainly heterosexuals, on a longer time scale of 20 to 30 years'". It should be noted that whilst Anderson was starting to talk publicly about potential HIV treatments, Burrough's Wellcome - the then-US pharmaceutical arm of UK's Wellcome plc - had started producing and marketing a new drug for HIV called AZT. The compound was the first drug to be approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of what was called at the time "Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome" (AIDS).
In 1988, Roy Anderson was also making a name for himself among concerned mothers who didn't trust the MMR vaccine. On 10 September 1988, a report in the Aberdeen Evening Express with the headline "Compulsory Jabs Urged", stated that "Children should not be allowed to attend primary school unless they have been vaccinated, according to a scientist". A small side note in the newspaper article goes on to say, "Prof Roy Anderson of Imperial College London, said many health regions achieved only 57% of immunisation targets". This may be the first hint of Roy Anderson's penchant for using totalitarian policies to increase vaccine uptake.

Q Research General #21808: Murky Ascension Edition
In 1899, the Eastern Telegraph Company arrived on Ascension and gradually the British started to build up a cable and wireless station on the island. Though the British Navy had initially administered Ascension, the Eastern Telegraph Company - which was later renamed Cable and Wireless in 1934 - assumed all such duties until 1964.
,,,
Eastern Submarine Telegraph Co, of Electra House, Moorgate, London, EC2
1872 The company was created by John Pender through the amalgamation and reorganisation of several companies:
Mediterranean Extension Telegraph Co
Malta and Alexandria Telegraph Co
Anglo-Mediterranean Telegraph Co
Falmouth, Gibraltar and Malta Telegraph Co
British-Indian Submarine Telegraph Co
Marseilles, Algiers and Malta Telegraph Co
with the Eastern Telegraph Co
The new company became known as the Eastern Telegraph Co (ETC); it was to become the largest cable operating company in the world.
At its peak it operated 160,000 nautical miles (nm) of cables. John Pender bacame Chairman of the company on its formation and remained as such until he died in 1896. The General Manager of the company was Sir James Anderson, who had captained the Great Eastern on its Atlantic cable voyages. The company then began to increase its links by duplicating cables over the busiest routes such as the Porthcurno-Carcavelos-Gibraltar.
Almost all its cables were manufactured and laid by the Telegraph Construction and Maintenance Co (Telcon).

3 top Pentagon officials suddenly resign a day after Trump fired Esper
Three Pentagon officials resigned from the Pentagon on Tuesday, just one day after Trump fired Defense Secretary Mark Esper.
"Today, Acting Under Secretary of Defense for Policy Dr. James Anderson, Under Secretary of Defense for Intelligence and Security Mr. Joseph Kernan and Chief of Staff to the Secretary of Defense, Jen Stewart submitted letters of resignation," the Pentagon said in a statement provided to American Military News.
All three officials' resignations are effective today.
The Pentagon said that Kernan's resignation was planned for several months. They did not, however, note that Anderson or Stewart's resignations were planned.
Defense officials told Politico that Anderson stepped down after "repeated disagreements with the White House personnel office."
Acting Secretary of Defense Miller remarked on the resignations, saying, "I want to thank Dr. Anderson, Admiral Kernan and Jen Stewart for their service to the nation and the Department. Over their careers each has contributed greatly to the national defense and the future of the Department of Defense. We wish them the best in their next endeavors."
Anderson, who was in his position for nine months, will be replaced with retired Brig. Gen. Anthony Tata.
"I am particularly grateful to have been entrusted with leading the dedicated men and women of Policy, who play a key role in our Nation's security," Anderson wrote in his resignation letter, which was obtained by Politico. "Now, as ever, our long-term success depends on adhering to the U.S. Constitution all public servants swear to support and defend."
Stewart will be replaced with Kash Patel, and Kernan will be replaced with Ezra Cohen-Watnick.
House Armed Services Committee Chairman Rep. Adam Smith said the resignation of Anderson was alarming.

>Gangster Disciples Enforcer and Hitman Convicted of RICO Murder, Killing Witness, and Other Violent Crimes
The other indicted defendants previously pleaded guilty to related offenses:
Xavier Raphael Jenkins, aka Xa, 33, of Clarksville, Tenn.; assault resulting in serious bodily injury in aid or racketeering;
Lamar Andre Warfield, aka Jug, 32, of Guthrie, Ky.; RICO conspiracy, conspiracy to possess with intent to distribute controlled substances, conspiracy to commit and attempted murder in aid of racketeering, assault with a dangerous weapon and causing serious bodily injury in aid of racketeering, and use, carry, possession of a firearm during a crime of violence and causing death through the use of a firearm;
Lawrence Mitchell, aka Chop, 37, of Clarksville, Tenn.; RICO conspiracy, conspiracy to possess with intent to distribute controlled substances, conspiracy to commit and attempted murder in aid of racketeering, assault with a dangerous weapon and causing serious bodily injury in aid of racketeering, and use, carry, and possession of a firearm during a crime of violence;
Rex Andrew Whitlock, aka Stackhouse, 36, of Clarksville, Tenn.; RICO conspiracy, conspiracy to distribute controlled substances, and causing death through the use of a firearm;
Lorenzo Cortez Brown, aka Zo, 35, of Murfreesboro, Tenn.; RICO conspiracy, conspiracy to possess with the intent to distribute controlled substances, distribution of controlled substances within 1000 feet of a school;
James Anderson Luke, aka New York, 34, of Clarksville, Tenn.; RICO conspiracy and conspiracy to possess with the intent to distribute controlled substances.
According to court documents and evidence presented at the three-week trial, Hardison conspired to participate in the affairs of the Gangster Disciples, a violent criminal gang founded in Chicago and now active in numerous states across the United States, including Tennessee. The Gangster Disciples are a highly organized enterprise, operating under the national leadership of a corporate board-style group that was responsible for gang decisions at a national level, and the state and regional leadership of "governors" and other subordinate gang members, who were responsible for the gang's activities in specific geographic regions.
Operating from a set called the "Clarksville deck," Hardison committed various crimes on behalf of the gang, including shootings, attempted murders, and murders.
Evidence presented at trial showed that on Jan. 6, 2012, Hardison murdered a Gangster Disciples' associate for failing to repay a drug debt. He then shot and killed the associate's girlfriend, who was a witness to the murder, to prevent her from talking to law enforcement. Hardison enlisted other Gangster Disciples members to dispose of the murder weapon. Following these murders, Hardison was rewarded by being appointed to various positions in the Gangster Disciples, including regional chief enforcer and a member of their notorious hitman group called the "Blackout Squad."
Hardison and several co-conspirators plotted on several occasions to assault members of a rival gang. On Sept. 26, 2012, Hardison participated in a shooting of an occupied residence belonging to a member of the Bloods gang in Clarksville, Tennessee. Additionally, on Nov. 3, 2012, Hardison and others shot and killed a member of the Bloods gang inside a nightclub in Clarksville, Tennessee.
In addition to Hardison's crimes, evidence was presented that other Gangster Disciples members engaged in drug trafficking, intimidated witnesses to prevent them from cooperating with law enforcement, protected the gang's drug territory, financed the enterprise, and violently enforced gang rules.
At sentencing, Hardison faces a mandatory minimum of life in prison for murder in aid of racketeering, a maximum sentence of life in prison for the offenses of racketeering conspiracy, causing death through the use of a firearm, and killing a witness to prevent communication to a law enforcement; He faces 20 years' incarceration for the assault causing serious bodily injury in aid of racketeering offense.

Global Payment System Settlement Freeze a High Likelihood
Call it now.
The world's payment settlement system is going to be attacked and fail severely.
Crisis, reactions, and then we get no choice in their solutions. Almost as if the World Economic Forum had not been telegraphing this for years ahead of time.
Have a brief look at what we mean below.
If you've been monitoring trends in the global business and financial world, you have seen this coming crisis year in advance.
And if you've bothered to study how old and analog our current global system of payment settlements is, this week's concern should be on the top of your mind.
The sourced clip above is courtesy of Bloomberg, and it's entitled The Next Big Risk: The Global Payment System Is Vulnerable to Attack.
We start this week listening to bond trading billionaire Scott Minerd, the Chief Investment Officer of Guggenheim Funds. A family fortune that was founded on refining the California Gold Rush.
We've highlighted he and his firm's silver bullion bullishness on this SD Bullion channel in years past.
Before we end this week's bullion market update, we're going to remind you just how financially connected this man is. What he has said on record is the transitional endgame phase for the global payments system. As well, we'll listen again to his take on silver's eventual parabolic rise potential to come. Mr. Minerd also is stating that the 10 yr US Treasury will probably go negative before this 40 yr bond bull market ends.
Before we begin this update in earnest, a few thought-provoking questions related to this topic of payment settlement system freezing up.
How will our vulnerable Global Payment System react to large-scale coordinated hacks, attacks, and or significant Natural disasters like solar flares that can potentially blow out nearly everything digital and electronic it possibly blows through here on Earth?
More questions to ponder are below.
This is the Bank for International Settlements Money Flower illustration.
There's good reason 1 in 5 oz of #Gold ever mined

- James Anderson (@Jameshenryand) January 17, 2018
It illustrates that all human currency derivatives flowering from their precious metal monetary legacies and foundations eventually die.
The government partnered central banks still hold +1/5th ounces of gold ever mined because they know their fiat financial folly history.
Gold bullion is their insurance policy if and when currency derivatives fail again.
How prepared are you if the financial system were to seize up for months in duration?
https://youtu.be/pYSWoqfhGDY
As promised to close this week's SD Bullion market update, we're going to revisit what this former NY Federal Reserve Investment Advisor Committee Member has told us about silver and where the world is headed by 2020. We're going to start in early 2020, and then we're going back to 2011, the last time the US debt ceiling debacle got the US debt downgraded by Moody's and other rating agencies.

Two other Department of Homeland Security (DHS) officials-Bryan Ware, CISA's assistant director, and Valerie Boyd, the DHS's assistant secretary of international affairs-were also forced out of their positions last week, per reports.
The Defense Department's chief of staff, Jen Stewart, was replaced on Nov. 10 by former Rep. Devin Nunes staffer Kash Patel, who played a role in helping Republicans discredit the Russia probe.
Also on Nov. 10, the Pentagon's undersecretary of defense Joseph Kernan, a retired Navy SEAL, and the Pentagon's top policy official James Anderson both resigned from their positions, though they were more likely pressured out-Politico reported that Anderson had fallen out of favor after pushing back against a White House attempt to install several Trump loyalists at the Defense Department.
These Pentagon departures came a day after Trump fired Secretary of Defense Mark Esper, who, though initially derided as "Yesper" for his compliance with the White House's wishes, angered Trump over the summer by opposing the deployment of active-duty troops to quell street protests in the wake of George Floyd's death, and for pushing for the renaming of military installations named after Confederate generals.
The head of the Department of Justice's election crime branch Richard Pilger, who has held the role for 10 years, resigned on Nov. 9 in protest of Attorney General Bill Barr's memo authorizing investigations of "substantial allegations" of voter fraud before the results of the current election are certified, which contradicts the DOJ's long-standing guidance designed to prevent the department from interfering with elections.
Between Nov. 6 and Nov. 8, the Trump administration also quietly fired the heads of the three federal agencies overseeing nuclear weapons, electricity and natural gas regulation, and overseas aid: Lisa Gordon-Hagerty, the administrator of the National Nuclear Security Administration; Bonne Glick, the deputy administrator of the U.S. agency for International Development; and Neil Chatterjee, the chairman of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, who said his dismissal could "perhaps" be retaliation for recent actions promoting an agency response to climate change.
The Trump administration also removed Michael Kuperberg, the scientist who oversees climate change for the U.S. Global Change Research Program, Nov. 6, with The New York Times reporting that people familiar with the changes expect the position to be given to a climate change skeptic.
CRUCIAL QUOTE
"Buckle your seatbelts. The next few months could get bumpy," wrote Washington Post columnist Josh Rogin after Glick was fired, declaring "Trump's post-election purge has begun."
KEY BACKGROUND
Numerous publications, citing anonymous sources close to the president, have warned that many top officials who have frustrated the president could be removed in the coming weeks as the Trump administration pursues a last-ditch effort to complete its agenda. The New York Times reported that public health officials in particular may be targeted, while CNN puts CIA Director Gina Haspel and FBI Director Christopher Wray, who Trump has openly expressed his anger toward, at the front of the firing line.
CHIEF CRITIC
"Who's going to come in behind me? It's going to be a real 'yes man.' And then God help us," said Esper during a Nov. 4 interview with the Military Times.

Pentagon Adviser Resigns, Citing Trump Admin's 'Abrupt Termination' of Panel
Steve Blank, one of the few remaining members of an advisory panel of outside experts for the Defense Department, on Monday resigned, saying the Trump administration's abrupt termination of more than half of the board members has "put the nation's safety and security at risk," CNN reports.
"The abrupt termination of more than half of the Defense Business Board and their replacement with political partisans has now put the nation's safety and security at risk," Blank wrote in his letter of resignation to acting Secretary of Defense Christopher Miller.
"My service to the Department of Defense was a service to the country, not to a party. I hereby tender my resignation," he added.
The Trump administration on Friday pushed out nine of the board members and replaced them with Trump allies, including former Trump campaign manager Corey Lewandowski, Army veteran and Newsmax columnist Cory Mills and former campaign staffer David Bossie.
The move came less than a month after the Pentagon was rocked by the firings of Defense Secretary Mark Esper, Under Secretary of Defense for Policy James Anderson and Under Secretary of Defense for Intelligence Joseph Kernan, as well as key staffers on their teams.

Pentagon Purges Leading Advisors From Defense Policy Board - Jaweb
By
Elmoudjaweb -
November 25, 2020
Several members of the top federal advisory committee to the U.S. Department of Defense have been suddenly pushed out, multiple U.S. officials told Foreign Policy, in what appears to be the outgoing Trump administration's parting shot at scions of the foreign-policy establishment.
The directive, which the Pentagon's White House liaison Joshua Whitehouse sent on Wednesday afternoon, removes 11 high-profile advisors from the Defense Policy Board, including former Secretaries of State Henry Kissinger and Madeleine Albright; retired Adm. Gary Roughead, who served as chief of naval operations; and a onetime ranking member of the House Intelligence Committee, Jane Harman. Rudy De Leon, a former chief operating officer at the Pentagon once considered by then-Defense Secretary James Mattis for a high-level policy role, will also be ousted.
Also booted in today's sweep of the board, which is effective immediately, were former House Majority Leader Eric Cantor and David McCormick, a former Treasury Department undersecretary during the George W. Bush administration. Both had been added to the board by former Mattis in 2017. Jamie Gorelick, a Clinton administration deputy attorney general; Robert Joseph, a chief U.S. nuclear negotiator who convinced Libya to give up weapons of mass destruction; former Bush Deputy National Security Advisor J.D. Crouch II; and Franklin Miller, a former top defense official, have also been removed.
This story is based on interviews with three current and former officials. The Defense Department did not immediately respond to request for comment.
The board, overseen by the Pentagon's top policy official, the undersecretary of defense for policy, serves as a kind of in-house think tank on retainer for top military leaders, providing independent counsel and advice on defense policy. The Defense Policy Board includes former top military brass, secretaries of state, members of Congress, and other senior diplomats and foreign-policy experts. The status of two other members of the panel-or who would replace the ousted members-was not immediately clear.
Officials said that the Trump administration had long tried to remake the board with figures seen as loyal to the president-and outside of the Washington establishment-but had received pushback from recently ousted Defense Secretary Mark Esper and acting Undersecretary of Defense for Policy James Anderson, who sought to keep the board in place to allow for policy continuity. Both Esper and Anderson were removed earlier this month in a purge of Pentagon officials.
The White House had sought to add Scott O'Grady, a former Air Force fighter pilot shot down over Bosnia, to the board to prepare him to be nominated for a top Pentagon position, as well as former House Speaker Newt Gingrich, a close ally of President Donald Trump. The administration had also vetoed adding retired Adm. Eric Olson, a former U.S. Special Operations Command chief, and former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, as well as Gordon England, a former deputy secretary of defense during the Bush administration, over perceived anti-Trump ties.
"If they get treated like that, then who is going to want to volunteer?" a former senior Trump administration official, speaking on condition of anonymity, told Foreign Policy.
While the board has no tangible role inside the Pentagon in the policymaking process, it routinely advises senior military leadership on some of the top strategic national security threats facing the United States. The board convened in October for classified discussions on formulating a long-term strategy toward China and deterrence in space, according to a notice from the Federal Register. The meeting included briefings from the CIA, the Pentagon's Office of Net Assessment, and other senior Pentagon policy officials.
The composition of the board has faced scrutiny from some Republican foreign-policy analysts, who say the current members do not accurately reflect the views of the administration, including its hard-line views toward China, as the Washington Times reported in October. Given the criticism, it is unclear why the White House waited until the final months of Trump's tenure in the Oval Office to make changes to the Defense Policy Board.
Some members of the board, including Roughead, Albright, and Harman, were added to the board during the Obama administration in 2011.
The move follows a recent decision by Whitehouse, the liaison officer, to begin political-style vetting of nonpolitical experts and employees on loan from think tanks, an effort that had only extended to political appointees in the past.

As Trump's term ends, 40 percent of top DoD jobs lack confirmed officials
WASHINGTON - Regular delays in nominations, combined with significant turnover at the highest levels of the Pentagon, means 40 percent of the top jobs at the department that require Senate confirmation are without an approved appointee as the Trump administration winds down.
A tally by Defense News shows 24 of the 60 positions at the Department of Defense are not occupied by confirmed individuals, with experts seeing little chance any current nominees will receive Senate approval before the clock runs out.
Among those offices without a confirmed official are some of the top civilian roles in the department: the Secretary of Defense and the undersecretaries of intelligence, policy, research and engineering and the comptroller.
Almost all of the vacancies are within the Office of the Secretary of Defense (OSD), while four spots -Undersecretary of the Navy, Undersecretary of the Air Force, Assistant Secretary of the Air Force for Space Acquisition and Integration, and General Counsel of the Army - are vacant at the service level.
The high-profile firings of Defense Secretary Mark Esper, USD-Policy James Anderson and USD-Intelligence Joseph Kernan last week contributed to the empty seats in the department. But the vacancies have been an issue all year - twenty seats were open in April - and the administration has been generally slow to fill spots.
According to information compiled by Arnold Punaro, a former Senate Armed Services Committee staff director and retired Marine Corps general officer, the Trump administration has lagged dramatically behind its predecessor in getting defense officials confirmed.
It took the Obama administration an average of around 5 months to nominate and just over 2 months to confirm its Presidential Appointments requiring Senate confirmation, or PAS, officials - an average of a 7 month process, according to Punaro's data. Top-tier OSD officials, such as an undersecretary for policy, took just under four months to confirm.
But the Trump administration was plagued by a slow process for identifying and nominating individuals for top spots. It took around 7.5 months to nominate and almost 3.5 months to confirm - an average total of 11 months to confirm such individuals. When it comes to those top-tier OSD officials, it took the Trump team six months to nominate and an additional three months to confirm, over twice as long as it took the Obama team for those same roles.
Similar data compiled by the White House Transition Project show that the Trump administration lagged behind every administration back to Ronald Reagan in nominating and confirming appointees.

Q Research General #14841: Ezra Cohen-Watnick Is A Keystone Edition
After firings and turnover, national security community wonders: what's next?
By: Aaron Mehta and Joe Gould ? 11 hours ago
WASHINGTON - The unprecedented removal of top Pentagon officials during a presidential transition has left the national security community reeling, wondering who will be the next to go and struggling to understand why it is happening at all.
Among the theories discussed by national security experts and concerned Democrats alike: that the firings are a play to accelerate the removal of troops in Afghanistan or, more skeptically, to use the military to subvert the election results.
A third option, however, is also floating among Washington circles: that the exits of Defense Secretary Mark Esper and several other key officials stem from personal politics that have been commonplace during the Trump administration.
An administration official, who asked not to be named because of the political sensitivities, attributed the overhaul to John McEntee, the director of the Presidential Personnel Office, who has reportedly been working for months to quash perceived disloyalty within the administration. A Washington Post columnist tweeted McEntee is also behind exits at the Department of Homeland Security.
"All the churn really isn't about policy," the official said, adding that National Security Adviser Robert O'Brien has been left out of the decision making. "It's about getting revenge on the people they consider 'never Trump.'"
Trump's Monday firing of Esper, replacing him with Christopher Miller, the head of the National Counterterrorism Center, was already extraordinary for a transition period, and made more unusual because the job did not go to Deputy Secretary David Norquist. (For now, Norquist remains on the job.)
But the situation escalated Tuesday, when Undersecretary of Defense for Intelligence Joseph Kernan and Undersecretary of Defense for Policy James Anderson submitted their resignations, in moves that were reportedly directed by White House staff. Esper's chief of staff, Jen Stewart, was also pushed out.
- Ezra Cohen-Watnick, who entered the Trump administration with National Security Adviser Mike Flynn, replaced Kernan in an acting capacity.
- Anthony Tata, a retired Army brigadier general and Fox News guest who was placed in the Pentagon amid controversy over his inflammatory remarks, will be performing the duties held by Anderson.
- Kash Patel, a former National Security Council official who rose to prominence by helping House Republicans during the investigation into ties between Trump and Russia, has been named Miller's chief of staff.
Patel is "running the show," and Cohen-Watnick is "very influential over there now," the administration source said.
While speculation swirls about who is next - reports have named acquisition head Ellen Lord, the longest-serving political appointee at the department, as well as Chief Management Officer Lisa Hershman - other moves with less prominent leaders are also taking place.
These include:
- Charles D. Cowan, a Trump appointee at Housing and Urban Development, arrived on Monday as the new deputy chief management officer, Defense News has learned.
- Alexis Ross, a deputy chief of staff for Esper, was also let go with Stewart. However, Ross may end up staying in the Pentagon in another role.
- Mark Tomb, Anderson's deputy chief of staff, was also let go Wednesday, according to Foreign Policy.
- And retired Col. Douglas Macgregor, a major proponent of Afghanistan withdrawal, has been placed as an adviser to Miller.
Lead Democrats on the congressional defense committees have been critical of the moves, citing a risk to national security and claiming the changes project chaos and instability to adversaries around the world at a time when the United States should project calm and order.
"If this is the beginning of a trend - the president either firing or forcing out national security professionals in order to replace them with people perceived as more loyal to him - then the next 70 days will be precarious at best and downright dangerous at worst," Rep. Adam Smith, the chairman of the House Armed Services Committee said in a statement Tuesday. He added that Trump's "singular obsession with loyalty has severely undermined the competence of our government and made us less safe."
On Thursday evening, Senate Armed Services Committee chairman Jim Inhofe, R-Okla., told a Fox News reporter that the administration had indicated the personnel changes at the Pentagon have finished.

More Trump firings from DoD: Mark Tomb, James Anderson, Joseph Kernan, Jennifer Stewart

ANOTHER OFFICIAL DISMISSED AT THE PENTAGON AS TRUMP CONTINUES UNUSUAL SHAKE-UP
"The president is taking back control of DOD. It's a rebirth of foreign policy. This is Trump foreign policy," said an official briefed on the effort.
Lee Fang
November 11 2020, 12:28 p.m.
THE SWEEPING DISMISSAL of Pentagon officials, an overhaul that began on Monday with President Donald Trump's sudden firing of Secretary of Defense Mark Esper, has continued. The Intercept has learned that Mark Tomb, the deputy chief of staff to the undersecretary of defense for policy, was ousted from his position yesterday.
Tomb, who declined to comment when reached by phone, was forced into retirement as part of a wave of firings of top Defense Department officials that included James Anderson, the Pentagon's acting policy chief; Joseph Kernan, the undersecretary for intelligence; and Esper's former chief of staff Jennifer Stewart.
The Tuesday exodus represents a major shake-up that has been planned for months, according to one Trump administration official briefed on the effort, with more firings to come across the department.
That official, who shared a draft list of other Pentagon officials under consideration for removal, said that Ellen Lord, the undersecretary of defense for acquisition and sustainment, would likely be dismissed next.
…
The firings also make way for controversial figures who are seen as far more dutiful in protecting Trump and carrying out his agenda. Anderson was swiftly replaced on Tuesday with Brig. Gen. Anthony Tata, a former Fox News contributor who had been previously nominated for the Pentagon's top policy job. Tata's nomination stalled in the Senate after old tweets were unearthed showing him criticizing former President Barack Obama as a "terrorist leader" and sharing an article that depicted Obama as a "Manchurian candidate."
Esper maintained a rocky relationship with Trump, which degraded further last summer after he publicly opposed Trump's call to deploy active-duty military in response to street protests sparked by the police killing of George Floyd. The former Raytheon lobbyist-turned-Pentagon chief was replaced by Chris Miller, the former senior director for counterterrorism and transnational threats at the National Security Council.
Stewart, Esper's chief of staff, was replaced by Kash Patel, a former National Security Council official who previously served as an aide to Rep. Devin Nunes, R-Calif. Patel gained a following in the administration for his role in leading the push on Capitol Hill to question intelligence agencies and Democratic lawmakers over the Russian collusion probe.
Kernan was replaced by Ezra Cohen-Watnick, a young former aide to Michael Flynn, Trump's former national security adviser. Cohen-Watnick, on an acting basis, will now oversee the Pentagon's intelligence operations.
The Intercept reported in August that Gina Haspel, the CIA director, and Christopher Wray, the director of the FBI, were also at risk of replacement, and the New York Times has now reported that they could be next in line to be removed from office.

Just a reminder, Q suggested GF would have a role in Trump Administration V2. Maybe Secretary of Defense for Intelligence?
Could it be perhaps, that the Q Program will be absorbed into a department of its own inside the Pentagon? With GF at the helm? His Digital Soldiers by his side? His protege ECW at hand?

Official who once called Obama a 'terrorist leader' takes over Pentagon policy
The departure of James Anderson, acting undersecretary of defense for policy, potentially paves the way for Anthony Tata to take over the policy shop.
Anthony Tata, a retired brigadier general whose nomination for a top Pentagon job collapsed this summer due to Islamophobic tweets and other controversial statements, began overseeing policy for the Defense Department on Tuesday.
The move is part of a high-level civilian leadership shakeup that began on Monday when President Donald Trump fired Defense Secretary Mark Esper and continued on Tuesday with the departure of the Pentagon's acting policy chief and the installation of a Trump loyalist as the new acting defense secretary's chief of staff.
A defense official confirmed that Tata, who had been performing the duties as the No. 2 for policy, is now running the organization following the Tuesday resignation of acting policy chief James Anderson, first reported by POLITICO.
Anderson was confirmed in June as the No. 2 policy official but had been acting in the top job. He had been expected to be asked by the White House to resign in the next few days.
"I am particularly grateful to have been entrusted with leading the dedicated men and women of Policy, who play a key role in our Nation's security," Anderson wrote in his letter of resignation. "Now, as ever, our long-term success depends on adhering to the U.S. Constitution all public servants swear to support and defend."
Anderson stepped down after repeated disagreements with the White House personnel office, according to current defense officials and one former defense official, who predicted that Anderson will be the first of several departures in the wake of Esper's firing.
A Pentagon spokesperson did not respond to requests for comment. A White House spokesperson said they don't comment on personnel.

Pentagon's top policy official resigns after clashing with the White House
The departure of James Anderson, acting undersecretary of defense for policy, potentially paves the way for Anthony Tata to take over the policy shop.
The Pentagon's acting policy chief resigned on Tuesday after falling out of favor with the White House, raising fears of a post-election purge at the Defense Department.
The departure of James Anderson, the acting undersecretary of defense for policy, potentially paves the way for Anthony Tata, President Donald Trump's controversial nominee for the top policy job who was pulled from consideration due to Islamophobic tweets, to take over the policy shop. Anderson's resignation also comes one day after Defense Secretary Mark Esper was fired by Trump, also over policy disagreements.
Anderson, who was confirmed in June as the No. 2 policy official but has been acting in the top job, submitted his letter of resignation on Tuesday morning, a copy of which was obtained by POLITICO. He had been expected to be asked by the White House to resign in the next few days.
"I am particularly grateful to have been entrusted with leading the dedicated men and women of Policy, who play a key role in our Nation's security," Anderson wrote in the letter. "Now, as ever, our long-term success depends on adhering to the U.S. Constitution all public servants swear to support and defend."
Anderson stepped down after clashing with the White House personnel office, according to current defense officials and one former defense official, who expect Anderson will be the first of several departures in the wake of Esper's firing.
A Pentagon spokesperson could not immediately be reached for comment. A White House spokesperson said they don't comment on personnel.
As one of the most senior officials in the Pentagon, the undersecretary of defense for policy is the principal adviser to the defense secretary on formulating national security and defense policy across a range of high-profile issues.
Anderson pushed back on several Trump loyalists the White House tried to install at DoD, including Frank Wuco and Rich Higgins, said one of the people, who like others requested anonymity in order to discuss sensitive personnel issues. The White House tried and failed to install Wuco, a controversial former talk radio host who once called President Barack Obama "a Kenyan," as a deputy overseeing special operations, and Higgins, a former National Security Council staffer who pushed conspiracy theories on Twitter, as chief of staff for Tata.
Anderson has been acting as the Pentagon's policy chief since February, when the White House pushed out John Rood, the last person to be confirmed in the job, over perceived insufficient loyalty to the president.
Anderson was confirmed by the Senate on June 3 in the position of deputy undersecretary of defense for policy, which had been vacant since July 2019. However, he has continued acting in the No. 1 role since the Senate canceled a confirmation hearing for the White House's top choice, Tata, after CNN unearthed his Islamophobic tweets.

'Lipstick on a Pig:' Plan to Pull US Troops from Germany Under Fire on Capitol Hill
The top Republican on the House Armed Services Committee this week expressed strong distaste for the Pentagon's plan to withdraw thousands of U.S. troops from Germany in keeping with the president's order.
Committee ranking member Rep. Mac Thornberry, R-Texas, who is retiring this year, made the charge during a Wednesday hearing at which Pentagon officials were unable to give details on where many of the 11,900 troops to be withdrawn would go, how it would affect military families and how much it would cost.
Thornberry said that acting Pentagon policy chief James Anderson and Air Force Lt. Gen. David Allvin, director of strategy and plans for the Pentagon's Joint Staff, were put in the difficult position of defending an ill-considered withdrawal order from Trump in June.
The president was likely sold on the Germany withdrawal by "a couple of staffers in the White House [who] clearly hadn't thought through the consequences," Thornberry said.
The result is that Defense Secretary Mark Esper "and the folks at the Pentagon are trying to put lipstick on the pig or make lemons out of lemonade," he added.
Other committee members were equally critical in assessing the withdrawal plan and its potential impact on the NATO alliance and the National Defense Strategy.
"From a layperson's point of view, it looks like we've reduced our troop presence in Europe at a time that Russia is actually becoming more of a threat," Rep. Bradley Byrne, R-Ala., told Anderson and Allvin. "It looks like we're pulling back, and I think that bothers a lot of us."
Rep. Adam Smith, D-Wash., the committee's chairman, said he is frustrated by what he called the witnesses' inability to answer basic questions on the implementation of the plan.
"The level of detail that we're getting here is just not acceptable," he said. "What the hell is going on, so we can exercise our oversight?"
Smith and others on the panel said the withdrawal plan appears to have been put in place without consulting NATO alliance partners.
The failure to consult "plays right into Russia's hands," Smith said. "They want to see us divided. We should not play into their hands."

AFRICOM Headquarters Could Move to US as Troops Pull Out of Germany
The headquarters of U.S. Africa Command could move back to the U.S. under the controversial plan to pull nearly 12,000 troops out of Germany, Pentagon officials said Wednesday.
AFRICOM headquarters, now based in Stuttgart, will be moving out of Germany "to a different location to be determined" based on the costs involved and the "receptivity" of potential host nations to its presence, according to James Anderson, acting Defense Department policy chief.
DoD is in the process of figuring out what would be involved if the new headquarters were to be in Europe or Africa, "or if it were to move back to the United States, which is yet another possibility," Anderson said at a hearing of the House Armed Services Committee.
Rep. Chrissy Houlahan, D-Penn., questioned whether the decision to move AFRICOM headquarters out of Germany was being made in haste without considering the costs or the impact on the U.S. presence in Africa.
"You mentioned specifically maybe moving to the U.S., which sort of doesn't seem like a sensible solution," Houlahan told Anderson.
Earlier in the hearing, Committee Chairman Adam Smith, D-Wash., also questioned why moving AFRICOM headquarters was part of the Pentagon's Germany withdrawal plan.
The decision to move AFRICOM headquarters out of Germany without any agreement on where it would be relocated "does not seem to make any sense," Smith said.
President Donald Trump initially gave the order in June to withdraw at least 9,500 U.S. troops from Germany. Defense Secretary Mark Esper in July said the number of troops to be withdrawn had increased to at least 11,900.
Anderson sought to assure the committee members that "the costs and operational efficiency and host nation permissions will be among the variables" considered by DoD in finding a new location for the headquarters.
He added that Army Gen. Stephen Townsend, commander of AFRICOM, was "working with his staff" to develop options on where the headquarters with its current staff of about 1,400 troops and civilians might go.

Tesla's Largest Outside Shareholder Cuts Stake
Baillie Gifford, Tesla's largest outside shareholder, has reduced its position in the electric auto maker after the company's rapid share appreciation made it an outsized influence on the firm's holdings.
A filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission on Wednesday showed that the U.K.-based fund group now owns less than 5% of Tesla, down from 6.32%, according to data from FactSet.
In a statement, Baillie Gifford reiterated that it remains a long-term believer in Elon Musk's company, and that the reduction in ownership was simply due to portfolio restrictions. "The substantial increase in Tesla's share price means that we needed to reduce our holding in order to reflect concentration guidelines which restrict the weight of a single stock in clients' portfolios," Baillie Gifford's James Anderson said in a statement.
"However, we intend to remain significant shareholders for many years ahead. We remain very optimistic about the future of the company. Tesla no longer faces any difficulty in raising capital at scale from outside sources but should there be serious setbacks in the share price we would welcome the opportunity to once again increase our shareholding."
Tesla shares have surged more than 465% this year through Tuesday's close, amid broad investor enthusiasm for electric vehicles. Part of Tesla's share appreciation is also due to the company reporting its fourth straight quarter of profits in its July 22 report, which qualifies it for inclusion in the S&P 500. Tesla also posted better-than-expected second-quarter vehicle deliveries.
The company's 5-for-1 stock split also went into effect on Monday, leading to a more than 12% jump in shares even though stock splits are purely cosmetic. Amid Tesla's record run, the company said Tuesday it plans to raise up to $5 billion through a new stock offering.

Top Pentagon official leaving Trump administration
A top Defense Department official is set to leave the administration following a resignation request from President Trump.
John Rood, undersecretary of Defense for policy at the Pentagon, will exit his post by the end of the month, Pentagon press secretary Alyssa Farah said. James Anderson, a senior Pentagon official, will serve as Rood's acting replacement until a permanent one is confirmed.
Rood, who assumed his position in 2018, serves as a principal adviser to Defense Secretary Mark Esper and coordinates national security policy within the Pentagon as part of his role. He also oversees areas that deal with the country's partnership with foreign allies.
ADVERTISEMENT
Rood indicated that his resignation was in response to a request from the president, according to a copy of his resignation letter shared by Breaking Defense.
"Senior administration officials appointed by the president serve at the pleasure of the president, and therefore, as you have requested I am providing my resignation," he wrote.
Trump in a tweet Wednesday morning thanked Rood for his service.
I would like to thank John Rood for his service to our Country, and wish him well in his future endeavors! https://t.co/kPA1rYCKvp
- Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) February 19, 2020
ADVERTISEMENT
Esper also thanked Rood for his service, saying in a statement that he "played a critical role on a wide range of DoD issues, including… efforts to increase burden sharing by our NATO allies."
CNN first reported that Rood was leaving the department after losing support among national security officials.
Rood played a role in initially certifying to Congress that Ukraine had taken actions to make institutional reforms within its government in order to receive $250 million in security assistance from the U.S.
"The United States remains committed to assisting with the implementation of these reforms to bolster Ukraine's ability to defend its territorial integrity in support of a secure and democratic Ukraine," Rood wrote, according to a letter previously obtained by The Hill.
The letter undermined the justification that some Trump administration members gave for withholding military assistance. Some officials had said that the block in funding was a product of a push for corruption reform.
Rood reportedly also emailed Esper just hours after Trump's July 25 phone conversation with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky. In the email, Rood informed the Pentagon chief of an upcoming meeting that would address Trump's "concern about endemic corruption in Ukraine and his reported view that US should cease providing security assistance," according to CNN.
Rood asserted that "placing a hold on security assistance at this time would jeopardize this unique window of opportunity and undermine our defense priorities with a key partner in the strategic competition with Russia."
Trump's move to block military aid for Ukraine and press the country's president for investigations of his political rivals was at the center of the House impeachment. The Senate voted to acquit the president of the impeachment articles.
Rood had reportedly become a source of frustration among Defense officials, who alleged in a Foreign Policy article in December that he was responsible for a toxic work environment.
The magazine reported that nearly a dozen former and current Pentagon officials said Rood was to blame for an increase in departures.
Pentagon spokesman Jonathan Hoffman said at the time that the department had the "utmost confidence" in Rood.

Q Research General #3262: WDSHN NDAA Edition
ANTIFA Key Figures
Most of the Antifa leadership is hidden within BAMN (By Any Means Necessary).
Although BAMN claims to be civil rights organization it was originally an openly communist group.
BAMN was investigated in 2005 for engaging in terrorist activities. There were reports that they had ties to several terrorist organizations such as the East Lansing Animal Rights Movement (ELARM), Direct Action, and to the North American Man/Boy Love Association (NAMBLA) . BAMN alleged that these allegations were brought by the FBI was to try to crush dissent.
BAMN collects money through United for Equality and Affirmative Action Legal Defense Fund (UEAALDF), which is a 501(c)(3) organization registered to Donna Stern, Organizer of BAMN: By Any Means Necessary, that claims to be nonpartisan. This money is supposed to be used for "civil rights actions."
1.Yvette Felarca
is the semi-public spokesperson for Antifa through the BAMN front organization. As mentioned earlier in the article Antifa will only have semi-public spokespersons and they will deny being Antifa members.
This is exactly what Yvette Felarca does. It is widely known she speaks for Antifa on the national level.
Shockingly, Felarca is a middle school teacher in Oakland, CA. She has been suspended multiple times for recruiting her students for Antifa and for violent protest such as The Battle of Berkley. She wields a lot of power in the teachers union and keeps being returned to her job where the whole cycle restarts.
2.Shanta Driver
is the top national leader for Antifa although she claims she is just an activist who happens to work with Antifa. Away from violent protest she is a labor lawyer. She was present in the background at the Battle Of Berkeley. She uses the BAMN organization to organize and control Antifa disruption activities. Driver is not only a member of BAMN, but she is also the National Director of UEAALDF. This it the non-profit arm of BAMN.
Shanta Driver of BAMN
3.Mike Wilson
is another national leader of Antifa. He works at UC Berkeley as a researcher. He was also seen at Berkeley giving orders to the Antifa foot soldiers.
Mike Wilson UC Berkeley researcher and Antifa Organizer
4.Mark Airgood
is another national leader in Antifa. Most disturbingly he works as a special education teacher. He is currently running for a leadership position in the Nation Teachers Union. This would give Antifa a lot of power in controlling how our kids are taught in public schools.
Mark Airgood. Antifa Leader And Special Education Teacher
5.Benjamin Lynch
is in charge of organizing protest across the country. He resides in Oakland, CA where he has organized several of the violent Oakland protests of the past few years.
Benjamin Lynch , Antifa Organizer
6.James Anderson
-Furgeson is the editor of the Antifa news website It's Going Down. This website is the main website which disseminates Antifa's national message and calls for acts of violence including the murder of President Trump. Like many others of the Antifa's leadership board Anderson-Furgeson is a professor at UC Berkeley.
Antifa Weaknesses
The biggest weakness that Antifa has is that anonymity to them is paramount. Throughout this series I have tried to make that abundantly clear, it bears repeating. Antifa members live in fear of being exposed. The best way to combat Antifa is not through physical action, but research.
Antifa members have delusions of being targeted by the state. Although this paranoia can be good for them to prevent infiltration it can also be exploited by releasing their information to the public. Antifa members for the most part will back off if their identities are exposed to the public.
Conclusion
Antifa will be around in some form while Donald Trump is still president. While it might be hard to eradicate Antifa entirely they can be marginalized. After their loss at the Battle Of Berkeley they showed up at another free speech rally.
The Oath Keepers were also there. The Oath Keepers were critical in the defeat of Antifa in Berkeley. Once Antifa noticed the Oath Keepers they quickly ended their attempt to disrupt the rally and retreated.

"The Fault Is Mine Alone": Musk Apologizes To British Diver For Calling Him A "Pedo"
Just a few hours after Loup Ventures' Gene "Channel Checks" Munster published an open letter to Elon Musk telling him to "to apologize to Vern Unsworth, "ignore short-sellers", and put the Twitter down", the Tesla CEO took at least one of the three to heart, and issued an apology to the British diver Vern Unsworth whom Musk labeled a pedophile over the weekend in a now-deleted Twitter post, following the rescue of a dozen Thai schoolboys and their football coach from a cave in northern Thailand.
"My words were spoken in anger after Mr. Unsworth said several untruths & suggested I engage in a sexual act with the mini-sub," Musk, 47, said on Twitter in response to another user.

There may have been another, more ulterior motive to Musk's apology: Unsworth, who played a leading role in the rescue, said on Tuesday that he had been approached by British and American lawyers and would seek legal advice after Musk directed abuse at him on Twitter.
Speaking to Reuters after Musk's latest tweets which were sent early on Wednesday morning, Unsworth said "I am aware of his apology, and no further comment."
Asked if there would be a financial settlement over the matter or if he was still considering legal action, and also asked how he had heard of the apology, he repeated he had no further comment.
Musk had previously offered a mini-submarine created by his rocket company SpaceX to help extract the youth soccer team and the coach from the labyrinth of partly flooded passages. However, the rescue team of elite divers and others rejected his proposal, and a war of words erupted when CNN quoted Unsworth as saying the submarine "had absolutely no chance of working" and was "just a PR stunt".
Musk responded on Twitter, saying:
"We will make one (video) of the mini-sub/pod going all the way to Cave 5 no problem. Sorry pedo guy, you really did ask for it."
The Tweet was later deleted.
Musk has a history of controversial outbursts, sparring with critics and investors betting against his company. Musk jokingly tweeted on April Fools' Day "joke" that the company had gone bankrupt after Tesla shares fell 22 percent in March. The following week, he hung up on the chairman of the National Transportation Safety Board who called to tell him the agency was booting Tesla representatives from the investigation of a fatal crash involving a Model X driver. The company had published a series of blog posts that cast blame on the deceased driver.
Ironically, earlier this month, Musk said in an interview with Bloomberg Businessweek that he would engage with his detractors on Twitter less often.
Then last week, James Anderson, a partner and portfolio manager at Baillie Gifford, called for "peace and execution" and urged Musk to focus on the company's core tasks, while Munster said Musk's "behavior is fueling an unhelpful perception" of his leadership.
Reuters even went so far as writing that "Elon Musk outburst puts Tesla board on the spot" hinting that it may be time to find a less volatile CEO."
It remains to be seen if the board will see Musk's apology as a sincere act of contrition or just the latest PR stunt.

Pentagon's top policy official resigns after clashing with the White House
The departure of James Anderson, acting undersecretary of defense for policy, potentially paves the way for Anthony Tata to take over the policy shop.
The Pentagon's acting policy chief resigned on Tuesday after falling out of favor with the White House, raising fears of a post-election purge at the Defense Department.
The departure of James Anderson, the acting undersecretary of defense for policy, potentially paves the way for Anthony Tata, President Donald Trump's controversial nominee for the top policy job who was pulled from consideration due to Islamophobic tweets, to take over the policy shop. Anderson's resignation also comes one day after Defense Secretary Mark Esper was fired by Trump, also over policy disagreements.
Anderson, who was confirmed in June as the No. 2 policy official but has been acting in the top job, submitted his letter of resignation on Tuesday morning, a copy of which was obtained by POLITICO. He had been expected to be asked by the White House to resign in the next few days.
"I am particularly grateful to have been entrusted with leading the dedicated men and women of Policy, who play a key role in our Nation's security," Anderson wrote in the letter. "Now, as ever, our long-term success depends on adhering to the U.S. Constitution all public servants swear to support and defend."
Anderson stepped down after clashing with the White House personnel office, according to current defense officials and one former defense official, who expect Anderson will be the first of several departures in the wake of Esper's firing.
A Pentagon spokesperson could not immediately be reached for comment. A White House spokesperson said they don't comment on personnel.
As one of the most senior officials in the Pentagon, the undersecretary of defense for policy is the principal adviser to the defense secretary on formulating national security and defense policy across a range of high-profile issues.
Anderson pushed back on several Trump loyalists the White House tried to install at DoD, including Frank Wuco and Rich Higgins, said one of the people, who like others requested anonymity in order to discuss sensitive personnel issues. The White House tried and failed to install Wuco, a controversial former talk radio host who once called President Barack Obama "a Kenyan," as a deputy overseeing special operations, and Higgins, a former National Security Council staffer who pushed conspiracy theories on Twitter, as chief of staff for Tata.
Anderson has been acting as the Pentagon's policy chief since February, when the White House pushed out John Rood, the last person to be confirmed in the job, over perceived insufficient loyalty to the president.
Anderson was confirmed by the Senate on June 3 in the position of deputy undersecretary of defense for policy, which had been vacant since July 2019. However, he has continued acting in the No. 1 role since the Senate canceled a confirmation hearing for the White House's top choice, Tata, after CNN unearthed his Islamophobic tweets.
