The Putsch: Bannon Removed from Trump’s NSC

Chief strategist and far right supporter of the Russian based neo fascist movement, Stephen K. Bannon,  has been removed in  part of a sweeping reshuffle that gives greater influence to key military officials who now dominate the Defense Department, Homeland Security and the intelligence agencies.  The one exception s Rex Tillerson, Trump’s Secretary of State whose background, if not military, does fit the classical fascist ideal of a military industrial alliance.

What worries me, even without Bannon, is the appearance of what appears to be a military-industrial putsch at the head of Trump’s government. I guess Mr. Kushner is the great white civilian hope?
