The article said the responsibilities had been transferred to a DoD entity and tried to imply that having the DoD involved in White House operations is somehow bad.

Yea that's a re-org. That's how you fire someone in government because it's so convoluted to outright terminate people.

[Note] since I posted this, the original article link was updated from an Ars Technica link to an Axios article with even _less_ analysis. This is kind of absurd.
