The Presidents nominee for a top Pentagon job boosted calls for martial law on Wednesday.
And thats just one piece of the off-the-walls social media presence of Scott OGrady, Trumps nominee to become assistant secretary of defense for international security affairs, CNN reported. OGradys nomination was sent to the Senate on Monday.
OGrady also retweeted numerous false claims that Trump had in fact won a second term in office, by a landslide, and described Joe Bidens winning the presidency as a coup attempt carried out in coordination with Chinese President Xi Jinping, according to CNNs review.
The Pentagon nominee, if confirmed, would serve through the end of Trumps presidency.
On Wednesday, OGrady retweeted an article about Michael Flynns call for martial law in light of the election results. Then, he retweeted another message from the same account that had shared the article, CNN found.
