Trump Gets Rid of 70 Obama Holdovers on the NSC; Joe DiGenova Says That the "Anonymous" Writer Who Penned New York Times Against Trump Has Been Identified and Will Be Sidelined
By the way, have you noticed this odd couple of propositions urged by Democrats, the media, and NeverTrump (but I repeat myself thrice)?:
Proposition 1. The presidency of the United States is a fairly trivial office whose occupant can be swapped out whenever the Ruling Class is upset. Upsetting the Ruling Class counts as an impeachable offense.
Proposition 2. Low-ranking political appointees in the federal bureaucracy should have Lifetime Appointments and may not be removed from their positions, ever, except by Democrat Presidents. Insubordinate bureaucrats -- even those who proudly declare they are part of the #Resistance dedicated to undermining the civilian government they are a part of -- have guaranteed Lifetime Tenure and efforts to fire, demote, or sideline them are grossly unconstitutional and indeed an impeachable offense. (See Proposition 1.)
Can this be? Can it really be that we can eject Trump from office on a whim of Adam Schiff's, but "LIEUTENANT COLONEL" Vindman is guaranteed his paper-pushing job for life?
Apparently so. This is the "rule" being urged.
President Trump is making good on his promises to "drain the swamp" and cut Obama-era holdovers from his staffs, especially the critical and recently controversial National Security Council.
Officials confirmed that Trump and national security adviser Robert O’Brien have cut 70 positions inherited from former President Barack Obama, who had fattened the staff to 200.
Many were loaners from other agencies and have been sent back. Others left government work.
