The new Destiny Deck could include the discarded Treachery card from the old deck. The order of operations is:
1. Discard the old deck (they join the old discards)
2. Add the remaining Treachery deck to Destiny; come up 3 short
3. Reshuffle the Treachery discards
4. Add the remaining 3 cards into Treachery
5. Reshuffle the new Destiny cards

Starbuck is now the Admiral. Both nukes have been fired, but you will still be in charge of jump destinations and and Admiral's Choice Crisis Cards.
Heh. I was just writing up this long post about Roslin's Crisis Card, and then I realised, I'd forgotten her Visions. Ms Roslin, I'm sending you your choice of Crisis Card. When you're ready, please post your choice.
BSG
So now I'm just the president? weird.
