”Who the hell hired JOHN BRENNAN’S DIRECTOR OF OPERATIONS AT OBAMA’S CIA to work under the 2nd Trump administration as a Senior Advisor to the new Deputy Secretary of Defense?” Loomer ranted. “Tom Rakusan must IMMEDIATELY be terminated from DOD and perp walked off the property.” 2/5
The first sentence is founded on a lie. Rakusan was promoted to that post in the spring of 2017. Trump was president. His loyal acolyte Mike Pompeo ran the CIA. The second sentence is a smear. Loomer has collected a lot of scalps under Trump. That’s what she does – destroy people for sport. 3/5
Then there’s this: “According to a new book about the CIA by Tim Weiner called "The Mission," which was published this month, Tom Rakusan is mentioned in the book as playing a pivotal role in the CIA’s Russian influence operation following President Trump's 2016 Presidential election victory.” 4/5
The CIA’s Russian influence operation? I guess she means the “Russia hoax” – the iron-clad assessment that Russian intelligence was working to elect Trump. I will tackle this in a newsletter I’m launching soon -- CODEWORD. But there’s an unclassified word for what Loomer’s doing here. McCarthyism.
