Driscoll also paused outside groups from selecting Academy employees or instructors and requested a extensive review of West Point&#8217;s hiring practices. Easterly, a 1990 West Point graduate, previously led CISA from 2021 to early 2025 and was involved in controversial efforts related to details control and disinformation governance. The decision to remove her drew support from Pentagon officials and figures like retired Lt.Gen. Michael Flynn, who emphasized the need for future officers to focus on military leadership rather than ideological activism. The <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3YuVZYV\" >move reflects broader concerns<\/a> about external influence on military academy staffing and the role of political considerations in such appointments.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<section> \t\t\t\t<script>console.log(\"ad slot (AC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC2)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC3)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC4)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (REP_0)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (REP_1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (REP_2)\")<\/script><\/p>\n<p>Secretary of the Army Dan Driscoll announced Wednesday that he directed West Point to rescind its offer for former Biden CISA Director Jen Easterly to become a professor in the school&rsquo;s Social Sciences Department.<\/p>\n<p>In a memorandum d on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/why-this-average-american-is-voting-for-donald-trump\/\" title=\"Why This Average American Is Voting for Donald Trump\">social media<\/a>, Driscoll wrote, &ldquo;The United States Military Academy terminates the gratuitous service agreement with Ms. Jen Easterly.
