I'm sure he has a Chief of Staff that would take over on that day so it's not like he's just going to head to his car while everybody is flipping out, looking for orders. That part would be seamless.

But it is weird as all hell.

I have a feeling there's a lot to the story that we're not getting.

The general is appointed by the President and serves at his will. I believe that only a sitting President can ask for his removal/transfer, which would have to come through the COC, I would expect.

In other words, this is the Obama Administration and/or current DOD at work, not Trump.


This was my initial thought as well -- but I'm not sure if COC can issue a "your fired one minute after I am fired" order. He'd have to say, "your fired at 11:59", right?

I'm curious if this is a completely new occurrence or if this happens during every Change of Power.

My guess is the Pemtagon can remove him. My theory is that he made it very clear that he did not want to and would not serve under President Trump. The Pentagon said "That's fine, as soon as he sworn in you can leave."

This. Is this something that happens in most changes of power but didn't when Bush left for some reason? Obama or someone in his staff being petulant? Weird coincidence?

Does the article say there will be an interim person?
This persons role; if I understood it correctly- from the info. in this and some other articles... Would be to manage/control the paid agitators/protestors.

Sounds like Obama creating a problem for trump to have to deal with. Make him find someone else quickly. I guess trump could issue an order preemptively reappointing him at 12:01 and let that be that.

If that's the case and that sounds feasible...why do all the articles on this insinuate the Commander thinks it was a mystery? IOW's the media would be on this like white on rice--as a feel good gotcha towards Trump. Saying, no one likes him blah blah blah; if it were as simple as what you said.

“The timing is extremely unusual,” Schwartz said in an interview Friday morning, confirming a memo announcing his ouster ..“My troops will be on the street,” said Schwartz, who turned 65 in October. “I’ll see them off, but I won’t be able to welcome them back to the armory.” He said he would “never plan to leave a mission in the middle of a battle.”


Fake theory.

Why that date and time of all days tho then? This isn't supportive of their credibility or something, simply doesn't make sense otherwise though

The chain of custody ends at 12:01 and staff members all lose their jobs at that time. This doesn't seem like a strange event. At 12:01 the nuclear football is turned over and they are all basically unemployed. I watched a tv show on this 2 days ago.

that being said, the TAG in ALL states and territories is a political appointment, Louisiana is a bit unusual in that TAGs don't change that often...in other states, TAGs change with the governor



Fun bit of trivia...up until 2014, the South Carolina TAG was an elected position.

I can't get to the Wash Compost story on this because I won't pay them to read their usual compost.

But there is at least one odd looking news site saying Trump ordered this. Too bad we can't trust our media.

What part of "Trump isn't President so doesn't have that authority" don't you understand?
