Installing Trump Official As Top NSA Lawyer Shows ‘Disregard’ For NatSec, Pelosi Tells DOD
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) on Monday demanded that the Pentagon halt the installation of a White House official and Trump loyalist as the top lawyer at the National Security Agency.
But the Pentagon has offered no such assurance. In a letter to Acting Defense Secretary Chris Miller, Pelosi said the last-minute onboarding of Michael Ellis as NSA's general counsel reeked of politics.
