“I got a phone call from a senior official in the Department of Defense that told me that the President had made a decision to remove me,” says Gen. Tim Haugh. The four-star general — who was in charge of helping defend America from cyberattacks — was fired in April, after far-right activist Laura Loomer met with President Trump. Online, she wrote Haugh was “disloyal” and had been “referred for firing”. Evidence she pointed to, publicly, was Haugh’s appointment by President Biden. “Every day I woke up committed to our national security and to meeting the expectations of the President,” says Haugh Republican Sen. Mike Rounds said of Haugh’s firing, “We do not have enough of these types of leaders, and a loss of any one of them without strong justification is disappointing. The departure of General Haugh is a loss for our nation…” #trump #presidenttrump #departmentofdefense #fired
