      At the bottom of a nighttime nomination, designation, & appointments email from the White House tonight: “Stephen A. Feinberg of New York, to be a Member and the Chair of the Intelligence Oversight Board.” There was pushback against giving Feinberg an intelligence role last year.pic.twitter.com/GPqlgU5dDc

      This seems notable coming the day after the Brennan security clearance move from Trump.

          Trump is moving very quickly to concentrate power in his hands. That E Prince story today where T would privatize war in Afghanistan where Prince would report directly to him and bypass our military. Horrifying.

          #ErikPrince was on @mitchellreports saying that America is “loosing blood & TREASURE?” Remember when Trump said, “we should’ve kept the oil.“ I’m sure this is completely unrelated.🙄 #Profiteering #PrivatizingWarpic.twitter.com/MCSMumuG95

          That contracted military would not be for Afghanistan. It would be for his coup. Our military, though they seem to adore him, pledged allegiance to our country and they would not help him. Hired/contracted men on the other hand... are being paid to carry out their boss’s orders.

          I don't think Prince can pass the security clearance requirements though. Too much dark money and corruption in his past.

          "Erik Prince" - who the hell spelled their child Eric w/ Erik back in the 60's? This is way before Gen X Y Z started the throw back & odd name spellings we have today? I think we have a clue of what kind of people have kids like: Betsy Devos & Erik Prince

          Has no one played Mass Effect in our fucking government? Cerberus are the bad guys. This is clearly just stupid.
