And I think Kirstjen Nielsen is part of the group.
Hence her remarks on Russia today - same day as the op-ed.
Russia and the op-ed mentions Russia.
Astute observers have noted, though, that the rest of the administration is operating on another track, one where countries like Russia are called out for meddling and punished accordingly, and where allies around the world are engaged as peers rather than ridiculed as rivals.
On Russia, for instance, the president was reluctant to expel so many of Mr. Putin’s spies as punishment for the poisoning of a former Russian spy in Britain. He complained for weeks about senior staff members letting him get boxed into further confrontation with Russia, and he expressed frustration that the United States continued to impose sanctions on the country for its malign behavior. But his national security team knew better — such actions had to be taken, to hold Moscow accountable.
But I don't have a high opinion of said group. Not even a mid to high opinion. Low, very low opinion. And I don't know why anyone thinks Kelly is anything but the piece of shit he is.
