0:00.0	The significant move that makes us less safe and chills dissent, Trump's Secretary of Defense
0:06.5	Pete Higsef has fired the general in charge of the U.S. Defense Intelligence Agency, otherwise
0:12.9	known as DIA, because apparently the agency's assessment, although correct about our strike
0:20.0	against the Iran nuclear facilities, angered Trump.
0:24.2	My name is Dina Dahl with a Midas Touch Network. Let's break this down. Now, the lieutenant general
0:29.5	Jeffrey Cruz was just fired by Trump, apparently, because Trump was angered. As we know, the initial assessment that came out was that
0:40.3	the nuclear facilities were not completely obliterated as Trump went and said to the public

1:41.6	when he didn't like the job numbers. We see what's happening with the CDC.
1:46.1	Loyalty to Trump is more important than how somebody is doing their job. But especially when you
1:54.8	are dealing with the defense of our country, firing somebody who is correct, but maybe not willing to continue your lie,
2:05.9	is especially dangerous. Now, press secretary Leavitt was just asked recently what the White
2:14.6	House position was on the firing of federal workers who may not be loyalists.
2:21.0	Take a lesson and tell me if you feel any safer.
