According to media, US President Trump has ordered several members of the National Security Council. Previously, he had met with an ultra -right activist in the White House.
US President Donald Trump is said to have ordered the dismissal of several members of his national security council. There is still no official information on how many employees it is and why they have been removed from their functions. However, several US media report that the decision followed a meeting between the ultra-right activist and conspiracy theorist Laura Loomer and President Trump in the White House on Wednesday.
According to media reports, Loomer pushed Trump to relieve certain employees who, in their opinion, did not adequately support the president's agenda. The personnel office applied for the discharge of at least three ranked security council members and several other employees, reports CNN. The New York Times spoke of six layoffs, other employees were transferred.
Several directors under the allegedly dismissed
According to the media reports, the director David Feith, responsible for technology and security, should be one of the fires. The senior director for secret service matters, Brian Walsh and the specialist for legislative affairs, Thomas Boodry should also go. A spokesman for the National Security Council did not want to comment on the information.
“It was an honor for me to meet President Trump and to present my research results to him,” Loomer wrote on the platform X. She will continue to work to strictly check candidates for tasks in the White House in order to protect the president and national security.
Activist spread Conspiracy counts
Loomer spreads right -wing extremists and racist positions and represents conspiracy counts, including the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001. She had already supported Trump in the election campaign. For example, she wrote on platform X in alluding to the Indian descent of the presidential candidate Kamala Harris, if the democrat gained the election, then “the white house will smell to Curry” and would be “handled by a call center”.
She also speculated that the then democratic president Joe Biden had put behind an assassination attempt on Trump. In recent times, she commented on social media about members of Trump's national security team and explained that the president could not trust them.
Trump denies the connection between layoffs and meetings
US President Donald Trump, according to his own statement, estimates the advice of the ultra-right activist. “Laura Loomer is a very good patriot,” said the Republican on the way to Florida to journalists. Loomer makes “recommendations for things and people” and is “usually very constructive”.
However, Trump rejected the media reports, according to which she is said to have made it to dismiss several members of the National Security Council. When asked whether Loomer was connected to these personnel decisions, he replied: “No, not at all.”
